“Don't You”
Album: “Candlebox”
Released: July 20, 1993 |
|
I could tear your walls down as I chip at who you are now
Don't you
You ever let me know how
You never let me know
And I could break your heart down as I tell you that you've burned out
Don't you
You want to let it go, yeah
You want to let it go, yeah
Oh, don't you
Oh, don't you
Oh, don't you
Oh, I might scream and shout now as I feel you pressing down on
Don't you
You walk upon my heals now
You walk upon my heals
And I should call your soul out but I feel I've gained control now
Don't you,
You tell me what to do, yeah
You tell me what to do, yeah
You twist and turn
Turn your thoughts around
This road it's getting long
Stones, don't you
They're getting harder and you're
You're slipping slowly further
You're slipping slowly further
You're slipping slowly further than you've been before
Oh, I don't need to know how, yes
And I don't need to blow out your candle
It's only burning at both ends
But your moods they wash away
No need to close your eyes today
You just take your
Your deeper breath you're going
Your deeper breath you're going
Under this time
It's under this time
You, you've got to go now
Won't you, you've got to go now
And don't you,
Don't you, you know it
Don't you, you know it
You've got to go now
Don't you, you've got to go now |

“Change”
Album: “Candlebox”
Released: July 20, 1993 |

As I stand here
I ponder greater things
You're no longer a part of
A part of your lover's dreams
So much for your
Common complications
So much for your
Constant desperation
For what's to come
It's all been written
Down, written down
But I feel that a change is
A change is gonna come
I said I feel so alive now
And you know I feel that a change is
A change is gonna come
As I sit here I'll tell you greater things
You're no longer a part of
A part of someone else's dreams
So much for your
Common escalations
So much for your
Constant fabrications
For what's to come
It's all been written down, down, down
I said for what's to come
For what's to come your way
It's all been written
Down, written down
But I feel that a change is
A change is gonna come
I said I feel so alive now
And you know I feel that a change is
A change is gonna come
Keep on time
Keep on time
You run along
Keep on child
Keep on child
You push it on
Keep on my time
I run around for you
Keep on time
Keep on time
You run along
Keep on child
Keep on child
You push it on
Keep on my time now
I run around for you
Run around for you
But you've gotta keep on, keep it on
You don't know yet
You don't know yet
You don't know yet
But you'll feel it in your soul
You don't know yet
You don't know yet
You don't know yet
But you feel it in your soul
Feel it in your soul now
Do you feel that a change is gonna come?
Do you feel that a change is gonna come?
No
As I lay here
I wanna fall asleep
No longer,
No longer a part of
A part of your TV screen
A part of your TV dreams
I said so much for your
So much for your
So much for your
Your common complications
So much for your
Constant desperation
For what's to come it's all been written
Down, written down
But I feel that a change is
A change is gonna come
I said I feel so alive now
And you know I feel that a change is
A change is gonna come |

Feelin' fine
The fire won't burn out
Taste the sign
The trees won't come out
Seeing traffic driving by
Maybe you
You won't see me again
Cause I'm needed
Needed more and more every day
Someone takes my mind away
Tells me that it's
It's time to go
You wanna help me
As I'm fallin' down
I don't need you
Lies they won't surface
Your mind it wanders oh over
Again
Someone take on mind
I'm losin' you in time
Maybe that man he's standing by me
My head won't take this all alone
Someone they wanna tell you maybe you would suffer
Tell me once again
I'm under cover
Someone wanna feel like
Someone wants to feel like
I don't need you
Lies they won't surface
Your mind it wanders
Oh over again
Maybe oh
I don't need you
Your mind, it won't surface
My mind, it wanders oh over
Again
Someone tell you
Should I close my eyes again
Once again
Maybe someone will come and rescue me
Should I beg your forgiveness
I've fallen on my own
Someone take a picture
Put your camera away
Someone take today as traffic passes by
Never see
You never see it all
I don't need you
Your lies they won't surface
Your mind it wanders oh over,
Again
I don't need you
Your lies they won't surface
My mind it wanders oh over again

“Far Behind”
Album: “Candlebox”
Released: July 20, 1993 |

Now maybe
I didn't mean to treat you bad
But I did it anyway
And now maybe
Some would say your life was sad
But you lived it anyway
And so maybe
Your friends they stand around they watch your crumble
As you falter to the ground
And then someday
Your friends they stand beside as you were flying
Oh you were flying oh so high
But them someday people look at you for what they call their own
They watch you suffer
Yeah they hear you calling home
But then some day we could take our time
To brush the leaves aside so you can reach us
But you left me far behind
Now maybe
I didn't mean to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
Now maybe some would say you're left with what you had
But you couldn't share the pain
No, no, no
Couldn't share the pain, they watch you suffer
Now maybe I could have made my own mistakes
But I live with what I've known
And then maybe we might share in something great
But won't you look at where we've grown
Won't you look at where we've gone
But then someday comes tomorrow holds a sense of what I feel for you in my mind
As you trip the final line
And that cold day when you lost control
Shame you left my life so soon you should have told me
But you left me far behind
Now maybe I didn't mean to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
Now maybe some would say you're left with what you had
But you couldn't share the pain No, no, no
Now maybe I didn't mean to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
Now maybe some would say you're left with what you had
But you couldn't share the pain
I said times have changed your friends
They come and watch you crumble to the ground
They watch you suffer
Yeah, they hold you down
Hold you down
Now maybe brother, maybe love
I didn't mean to treat you bad
But you left me far behind
Left me far behind
Left me far behind |

“Mother's Dream”
Album: “Candlebox”
Released: July 20, 1993 |

I'm flipping through these pages
My memory seems jaded
A lot's been lost since my mothers dream
But these sudden flashing colors
Close my eyes
Only seven
Full of life
Feel my heart it's aching over
Feel my heart it's aching over
And I,
I remember being young
Seventeen
Yes you'd come to my house
Won't you tell me the things that I'd done to you this time
Never in my life did I feel so unsheltered
In my mind
I feel you're nothing
Good for nothing
As you told me
Yes you told me how hard I tried
These broken bones, won't you say
You carry me home now baby
My mothers dreams
She called it
My mother dreams she called it
These broken bones, won't you say
You carry me home now baby
My mothers dreams
She called it
My mothers dreams
Yes my age
Has turned direction
Cold and lonely resurrection
Lies they told me why I'm lost within your soul
But I've worn all those patches in my dreams
Always broken at the seams
Won't you help me
Won't you help me
Oh no angel |

“He Calls Home”
Album: “Candlebox”
Released: July 20, 1993 |
|
I see him everyday
In that blanket that he calls home
I wonder does he know
That his family they're left alone
He says brother can you spare
Can you spare a dime?
I'm down to my last dollar
And this life of mine
Said this life of mine
It gets rough at times
And I wonder does he know
Does he even care
That his family's safe at home and they wonder where
As he wanders through his life ever searchin' for
A warm blanket on warm fields and he wanders on
And I wonder is he safe from the cold
Safe out from the cold
Well I see he left the other day
Took his blanket that he called home
I wonder did he go for good
Or did he pass away?
Well I wonder does he know
See I'm down to my last dollar
And this life of mine
Said this life of mine
It gets rough at times
Now I wonder does he know
Does he even care
That my family's safe at home
And I wonder where
As I wander through my life
Ever searchin' for
My warm blanket on fields and I wander on
And I wonder
Will I always be helped along
I said I
I'll never know
Because I
I'll never go and yes, I
I said I wonder why
Because I
I'll never go home
I'll never come home
I'll never come home
Oh won't you let me come home
Cause I won't come home
But I'll never know
I'll never go
I said I wonder why
Because I know I will never come home
I'll never come home |

“Simple Lessons”
Album: “Lucy”
Released: October 22, 1995 |

Sounds to be where, you want to scream.
Always left without, saying hello.
I've seen chains that bear less, snap and fall long before you let go.
Times run over your sink onto my floor,
It's ok, we've cleaned them many times before.
Simple lessons are, simple lessons are, simple lessons are,
Simple lessons are, simple...
Sounds might be where, yeah I want to cry.
Always left before, I said hello
He's had days where shades of brilliance, never granted him space
Green shades of painful rains, it's ok, they'll wash away now
Simple lessons are, simple lessons are, simple lessons are,
Simple lessons are, simple,,.
Always taught you how, drain yourself empty.
Always taught you how, drain yourself empty.
We're all scarred up from ages of childish games
Yet I've never seen your head up higher
It feels real this time, I see you happy again.
Reel in it for a while, oh enough to take my place.
Sounds to be where, yea I want to scream
Always left without, saying hello.
I've seen chains that bear less, snap and fall long before you,
Long before you let go. |

“Drowned”
Album: “Lucy”
Released: October 22, 1995 |

Turn me into, another corner.
You see I'm sideways, I'm unopened.
I let it before I lose myself, I'm empty and inspired alone.
And I swear, I can say to you.
And I swear, I can say to you.
So I write it down, and slip away from faith.
Frustrated and anxious to grow.
Addressed in clothes that never fit my mind,
Letters said but never closed last time,
And I can say to you. And I swear, I can say to you.
You tell me...
When did we start to drown,
You see I'll hold you there.
When did we start to drown,
Can't you see it's time we made it home
When did we start to, drown?
When did we start to...
So I see you turn it into your lines my way
You see I'm angry, and I'll set you straight.
Let it before I lose control,
You find out, and I'll fight it alone.
And I swear, I can say to you.
And I swear, I can say to you.
Somebody tell me,
When did we start to drown,
You think I'll hold you there.
When did we start to drown,
Can you see it's time we made it home
When did we start to drown?
Always on my mind, time for your temper.
Always on my mind, sent to my mind I know.
Always on my mind, I'll hold your thoughts I swear, always...
So you turn to me, so you turn it...
Turn me into another corner,
And you put me in this, this other corner
Turn it into another corner
You'll tell me...
When did we start drown,
You see I'll hold you there.
When did we start to drown,
Can't you see it's time we made it home.
When did we start to,
Drown? |

“Lucy”
Album: “Lucy”
Released: October 22, 1995 |

Another lie for us to live in.
Pages pick it up anytime she likes.
Another life for her to put down, pick it up, pick it up.
Anytime she might find enough to get her high.
And I'll get her high
Turn it off I found her weakness.
Boxes filled with memories shavings.
Lead into something better,
I heard it yesterday.
Old news my friend,
She's broken hearted...
I know, she'd seen it all along,
She's better off lately.
They said it's all she's after,
Every time, every time.
Can she free it,
Has it all been wasted.
Can we see her one last time?
Another lie for her to live in
Breakdowns, pull her out and knock us down every time.
Another time for her to find out,
She'll let it go blue,
And then she'll fall down. Gently,
Until she's broken hearted...
I know, she'd seen it all along,
She's better of lately.
They said it's all she's after,
Every time, every time.
Can she free it,
Has it all been wasted.
Can she free it one last time?
Can she free it?
So when she lays her head down,
Do you read all the thoughts that she feeds aloud,
She can, she can see through.
And when she says she's found out,
All the things that she though we would read about,
She can, she can see through
And when she says she's played out,
All the dreams that she thought she could dream about,
Do you feel, do you feel, do you feel,
Do you feel the need to break free?
Is it all she's made of... |

I'll get so close to you, I'll let you down my friend.
You see it in this face, And hear it in these words.
And I begin to know, and I begin to feel, everything I've wanted.
And I become a man through you.
You find out my needs, this separation,
Push away everything and anyone connected,
To your needs and to your life and to your ties.
I'll push it all away,
I said it's all right there for you now.
Hey I said it's all right there for you to tell...
I'll let you down my friend, I'll turn my back to you.
I never meant to leave you, never meant to leave your room.
You began alone, and you've begun again, all I wanted for you.
I become alive through you,
Can you feel this constant resurrection of needs,
I'm sorry for those things I meant to help you, and I meant to fill you,
And I'll always let you down,
And I'll always put you out,
I'll push it all away,
I said it's all right here for you now.
Hey I said it's all right there for you to tell...
Thought to feel it in your life.
Thought to take your time to grow.
I was sent to be here, left to hurt you, this time it's sad, you've gone.
Hey I said it's all right there for you now
Hey I said it's all right there for you too.
Hey I said it's all right there for you now.
Thought to feel it in your life. Thought to take your time to grow |

How people tell you lies. I thought you felt the same.
Somehow he thought you'd be there.
Help him beat me down, again. It's all I know.
So you want for me, some things we never see.
Left alone to fill time.
So empty all your thoughts now, turn around your hate,
Take a look at me. Hang on security.
It's all been overrated, this life you live, it's not your own.
There's no one here to help you.
It's all been unadulterated lies, they'll keep telling you.
They'll keep telling you, how I want to...
Raise it on my own, nothing special maybe, nothing special lately.
Time to feel it on your own, time you want to take control.
So you've told them all, I thought you looked the same!
Do you need this light to help you see it clearer again?
Closer to my letter, open up for some to breed,
You're sharper these days roll on security.
It's all been overrated, this life to live, it's not your own
There's no one here to help you.
And it's all been unadulterated lies, they'll keep telling you.
They keep telling you, how I want to...
Raise it on my own, nothing special lately, nothing special maybe.
Time to feel it on your own, time you want to take control
No now fall, call for me to fall for.
Everybody wants to tell you something,
Everybody wants to fill you, nothing.
Everybody wants to break you out now,
Everybody wants to take you out now.
And everybody wants to tell you,
And everybody wants to fill you in.
Do you think it's time to tell them?
Yes I think it's time you shove them a little harder.
Yes I think it's time that you pushed them over.
Don't you think it's time you told them stop!
Raise it on my own no, no, time to feel your soulless lately.
Everybody wants to tell you something,
Everybody wants to bring you something,
Everybody wants to take you,
And everybody wants to bring you down.
Time you feel it in your own, time you let them take control,
Time you fill their needs, so empty all your thoughts my friends.
For everybody wants to break you,
And everybody wants to push you around... |

Eyes to you, every hand I see. Eyes to you, very heavy in my hands.
Eyes raised up to your hand, my arms diseased.
Eyes fall, eye follow you, and I'll be,
Some thing's not ready for...
My love to you. I've been this space for you.
Our crooked halos and I, I fall to you again.
Some things I, some things I've never been told.
Your head to me, heavy as I'm dropping down.
So you raise it to me, as my feet, my feet they hit the ground.
All for you my hands are burning,
All for you my knees they're hurting.
I push it down for, I push it down for, I push it down for,
Some things not ready for...
My love to you. I'll be your, your space to you,
Your crooked halo, and I fall, I fall to you again.
Some things I, some things I've never been told...
Can you see that we've raced these lessons of our days,
We're better off here yea, we're better off dead.
These eyes follow you, my eyes follow you,
Do you remember in our days?, won't you let it go...
Can you see me my tired friend, there's something I need to tell you.
I guess I meant to give it to you a long, long road ago.
It's all for your my hands are beating,
It's all for you my mind, I've needed you.
I fall to you again, and I fall to you again.
There's some things I've never been told,
There's some things we've never shown.
There's some lines I've never told you,
There's some times I, I've never showed you.
Do you still need my time if I show it to you?
And do you still write it off every time I open to you?
I know it's alright, I know it's alright, I know it's alright... |

At a stand still,
Somebody, somebody put me here.
As I heal you, it's not that much difference,
We'll be there.
Can't you all see, what it says?
It says ok now, ok now, now you go.
And I think I'll make it,
Because I love you, I love you yes you know.
It's amazing, that we're still here.
It's amazing, how?
I know you fear me now,
Why did you leave it in my hands?
I can't explain it,
How can you leave me out,
How can you push me out,
How can you push me, push me around again?
It's amazing, that we're still here
It's amazing, how?

Why did you leave it, leave it in my hands?
How can you put me down, how can you put me out,
How can you push around, push me around again?

“Vulgar Before Me”
Album: “Lucy”
Released: October 22, 1995 |

To you. Separation, only to put it down.
To you. Desperation, only to be around.
So on and so under, misdirected in other words.
Always I wonder, is there anything I can do for you?
Anything I can do? Well I can do anything
To some, I've been singled out, always I take your fall.
To some, sane and broken down,
All we've left is dropping around you.
And you know these lines they're open ended.
These books were meant to be followed,
And your rules left to be read
Is there anything I can do?
I can do anything.
I can do anything,
It's vulgar before me.
Is there anything I can do?
I can do anything.
I can do anything
Vulgar before me,
Vulgar before me. |

Some will find subtlety left in strangers,
Some will find subtlety alone
And if you find everything like you're looking for,
If you find anything let me in
My eyes I see, I see everything
My eyes, I see it's together I know.
Some will find everything trapped in cages.
Some will find simple things inside their zoo.
And if you find everything like you're looking for,
If you find anything let me go.
My eyes I see, I see everything.
My eyes I see and I feel it's together I know.
Butterfly home, fly home, fly home, fly
And I'll raise my head up,
And I'll raise my arms up,
And I'll flutter on, beautiful,
Flutter on, beautiful,
Flutter on, I'm beautiful.
And I'll raise my wings up,
And I'll shed this shell off,
And I'll flutter on, beautiful,
Flutter on, beautiful,
Flutter on, I'm beautiful.
If what I know is real,
If what I know is all,
I'm dying, I'm dying
But I flutter on beautiful,
Flutter on beautiful.
I'm dying beautiful,
I'm dying beautiful.
Flutter on, I'm beautiful
Flutter on, I'm beautiful
And I see in my eyes,
And I feel in my skin,
And I walk in my world,
And I feel that I'm dying. |

Feels like the same today
10,000 horses drag me down
Seems like the same you say
10,000 voices crying out
You put on yourself, you'll see
there's nothing left at all
10,000 fingers dragging me down down down
Never want to slow down
I keep rollin' on
Never want to slow down
What I feel and what I know
It's all about to change
Seems like the same your ways of moving on
10,000 lies, you're washing your hands of everything else
So put on yourself you'll see
There's nothing left at all
10,000 stares they're bringing me down down down
Never want to slow down
I keep rollin' on
Never want to slow down
What I feel and what I know
Oh it feels like the strain
That everybody's giving to me
Won't let my hands get tied
I'm gonna ride it all out
Never gonna slow down this time
It's all about to change
Change from the past for knowledge tomorrow
Carries me on my way
I feel you pressing
These words left unspoken
Change for the sake, change for the sake of change
Seems like the same you say
10,000 cracks you're walking on
Fells like the same to say
10,000 voices calling on
You put on yourself
You'll see there's nothing left at all
But 10,000 horses bringing me down down down
Never want to slow down
I keep rollin' on
Never want to slow down
What I feel and what I know
Oh it feels like the strain
That everybody's giving to me
Won't let my hands get tied
I'm gonna ride it all out
Never gonna slow down this time
It's all about to change |

Sometimes you wake to see yourself
Take happier pills to keep you well
And sometimes you talk to hear yourself
Screaming out loud
Never ever heard a word you said
Can't you see yourself?
Can't you understand?
There's more truth in the way that you lie
But you take a stab at all that's surrounding your mind
Can't you sweep this shit to the side
It's so fucking nice to have you here
To turn our lives from what we fear
But sometimes you're worthless and weak and alone
Will you ever grow?
Here I am I want to help you out
Can't you see yourself?
Can't you understand?
There's more truth in the way that you lie
so you take a stab at all that's surrounding your mind
Well you won't believe when this cloud lifts what you might find
You'll find it's all over and can't you see it's all over
This face that stares back at you
Stares back at you, from these happy pills
They won't keep you well tonight
I'll be here to watch you shudder
I'll be the one that holds you under
Every time you try to shift it
Every time your stitch is slipping
Slipping through time
There's more truth in the way that you lie
So you take a stab at all that's surrounding your mind
Well you won't believe when this cloud lifts what you might find
Got it all over you now
Got it all over you now
Got it all over this
The face that stares back at you from these happy pills
They won't keep you well tonight |

Friends seem to see you
Friends seem to feel you
Does anybody else know?
I'm bailing you out of this life
Take another glance
Then close your eyes
Have you got more to say?
Painting outside the lines
Come another day will you get it right?
Well there's something I should say
Leave it all decide to walk away
Won't you leave it all decide to walk away
In time you'll find your own
I can see your blinders in the way
I'm so much closer than you know now
Can you feel me?
I can see your blinders in the way
Time to open up and let go
Filling the shoes this time
Turn another page, it's just a sign
That you're needed in my life
Drawing inside the pain
Could take another day to wash away
Well there's still time to fly
Leave it all decide to walk away
Leave it all decide to walk away
In time you'll find you're not alone
I can see your blinders in the way
I'm so much closer than you know now
Can you feel me?
I can see your blinders in the way
Time to open up and let go
Caught up outside the light
When you gonna want and realign
Friend I can see you
Friend I can still feel you
Do you feel alone today?
Oh my friend
Do you need me?
Friend do you fear me?
We need to be the same
Leave it all decide to walk away
Leave it all decide to walk away
In time you'll find you're not alone
I can see your blinders in the way
I'm so much closer than you know now
Can you fell me?
I can see your blinders in the way
Time to open up and let go
Caught up outside the light
When you gonna want and realign |

“It's Alright”
Album: “Happy Pills”
Released: July 22, 1998 |

It's alright what you confess to me
Where you're at right now baby, it's alright with me
Behind your truths or somewhere inside your lies
These long cold days of gray, they color your eyes
And it's alright, what you confide in me
Where we're at right now baby, it's where we need to be
And I can see things so clearly through tear-stained eyes
The side effects of time in all our good-byes, and it's alright
I got lost some time ago,
Lost in your song, your touch, your smile
And where I want to grow old
And you glimmer and gleam like a blond-washed hair from an ocean-side domain
Drifting into me, I found myself again, in her song
It's alright what you say to me
How you feel right now baby, shows an everlasting need
Behind the truth, there's something inside your lies
These long cold days of rain, they're hiding your eyes
And it's alright, what you express to me
Your song escapes me to this place I want to be
So sing to me baby, your song can carry me
Through endless weeks of rain and onto sweeter things
And it's alright
I got lost some time ago,
Lost in your song, your touch, your smile
And where I want to grow old
And you glimmer and gleam like a blond-washed hair from an ocean-side domain
Drifting into me, I found myself again, in her song
Oh sing to me baby, your song can carry me
In all she's revealed I found I could always see
How her ways could flow and run over me
And I found this reason to learn
And i found this reason to decide
As many days come and many days go
I'll never know why
And it's alright
I got lost some time ago,
Lost in your song, your touch, your smile
And where I want to grow old
And you glimmer and gleam like a blond-washed hair from an ocean-side domain
Drifting into me, I found myself again, in her song |

“A Stone's Throw Away”
Album: “Happy Pills”
Released: July 22, 1998 |
|
Did you feel this way back then?
Did you wake up to the sound of pouring rain?
Fading days of blue rush past your eyes
Would you lose yourself in someone else's vain?
Or should you shout your mind out when the loss began?
High until you washed away
It's all the same
I realized it through this song
I sing out loud and call your name
Do you feel I'm only someone you could never ever know?
In it all you'll find, you see you're not that far from me
So walk and hold your head up high
A stone's throw away
I feel right now like I felt way back then
The center of my life I lost it all
Never ever knew how much I'd loved until you left, you're gone
Fell right now like I was chasing you the same way
High until you washed away
It's all the same
I realized it through this song
Sing out loud and call your name
Do you feel the only someone you could never ever know?
In it all you find, you see you're not that far from me
To walk and hold your head up high
A stone's throw away
I would like this stone to roll
High until i washed it all away
It's all the same
I realized it through this song
Sing out loud and call my name
Do you feel the only someone you could never ever know
In it all you find
You see you're not that far from me to walk and hold your head up high
A stone's throw away
You're just a stone's throw away
Never knew how much I'd loved until you're gone
Never knew how much I'd love
Until you're gone away
Feel right now like I felt way back then
The center of my life I lost it, lost it all
Never knew how much I'd loved until you're gone
Never knew how much I'd loved until you're gone away
A stone's throw away |

Breathe in
Are you the one about to crash it all?
You take another hit in time you'll fall, all the way
Summertime sidelines
Well you're the one about to crash it all
And you're the one who likes to blame us all
Consider this
Alright, You're the one fading baby
Well you're the one fading baby
Fading
My life, well everyone's taking stock in me
And everyone listens so faithfully to hear what's right from wrong
it's all they'll ever know
Alright, you're the one fading baby
Well you're the one fading baby
Fading
If I ever want to take my chance again, it's life
If I ever want to take my chance again again
So real, oh baby you're so real
Alright, life well everyone serves themselves you'll see
As hungry as you are to cash in on me, you'll be left in the cold
Fading, if I ever want to take my chance again, it's life
If I ever want to take my chance again again
So real, oh baby you're so real
Find your own life, live, it's far too hard to be alone
These lines you cross, they won't hinder me at all
I feel alive, graced beside
I owe all I loathe to you
Oh baby you're so real |

Offerings...
Look what you're offering
By your hands, you've emptied my soul
But I'll find some time
I'll find somewhere to grow
Look out now
Has your mind been changed by the loss of this memory?
Roll on
You've got some time on your hands for where you are now
Bleeding the offerings
Yes you are now
Bleeding the offerings
My time to sit you all down
My time to save you all now
My time to lay it all out
My time
See what you're offering
See I open my eyes
Your face seems to speak aloud
Seeing it all in my eyes
I see some things in your eyes that have never been shown before
Roll on
Believing it all in my eyes
You've got these needs but I've got somewhere to go now now
So leave it alone, it's my time
With so little time it's so hard to find somewhere to go
Bleeding the offerings
Yes you are now
Bleeding the offerings
My time to sit you all down
My time to save you all now
My time to lay it all out
My time to save your souls again
My time to sit you all down now
My time to save you all now
My time to lay it all out
My time |

“Sometimes”
Album: “Happy Pills”
Released: July 22, 1998 |

I wipe the night from my eyes
Block out the sunny day and I hide
Everything's falling down around us
I'm just missing the rain
I'm happier now today
Don't let me down
Don't let me go
A change of seasons inside her mind
In time I'll decide
In time I'll decide to move on
We change directions, we watch the tides
And we borrow too much
We form restrictions and we form lines
And we separate you from me
Sometimes, sometimes we carry more weight than we own
Oh but sometimes sometimes goes on
Night takes the light by the hand
Tunes out the boring day and cries out loud
Everyone's hanging on, hanging on my words
It kills the thrill in being divine
But she's happier now today
Don't let her down
Don't let her go
There are no reasons there are no lies
We just bleed together
That's how we realize
We change directions we watch the tides
And we borrow too much
We From restrictions and we form lines
We separate you from me
Sometimes sometimes we carry more weight than we own
Oh but sometimes sometimes goes on
Somehow we'll find a way we've got to paste it back together
These ripped out pages of old coloring books where your
Gold is silver, my blue is gray
Its all held together by cellophane tape
but We change directions, we watch the tides
And we borrow too much
We form restrictions and we form lines
We separate you from me
Sometimes sometimes we carry more weight than we own
Oh but sometimes sometimes goes on
In my head I've got everything I want in you |

How can you say we're not together?
How can you say it's all the same in someone else's eyes?
How can you say it gives you pleasure?
That someone's pulling you aside
But now I want to find out
How you're living outside yourself
And how you feel like the one that's held it all in place
How you don't feel the shame
You'll never know, you'll never know now
How to let go the hate or how to hold on
You'll never know, never know now now
Where it all can lead to
Leave it all in the past and move on
You might find your way home
Leave it all in the past and roll on
You might find your way home
How can you stray from your direction?
How can you wait outside the door that's opened up for you?
How can you only see rejection,
When I've offered all I have to you?
Are you ever gonna find out
you'll never know, never know now now
Where it can all lead to
Leave it all in the past and move on
You might find your way home
Leave it all in the past and roll on
You might find your way home
Step back
Take a closer look
Step back
Find out where it leads you to
Step back Step back Step back
Leave it all in the past and move on
You might find your way home
Leave it all in the past and roll on
You might find your way home
Leave it all in the past and move on
You might find your way home
Leave it all in the past and roll on
You might find your way home |

The corner of my street
Too many miles, too tired to sleep
On a plane of dreams and sunbeams
Coming home to Belmore Place
Fireside flickered lights
A brighter sign of winter pines
I live it up somewhere you'll find
I'm living up on Belmore Place
The corner of my dreams
So many thoughts, they sit too deep
On a train I travel on my memories
Coming home to Belmore Place
Fireside flickered lights
A brighter sign of winter pines
I live it up somewhere you'll find
I'm living up on Belmore Place
In the slumber of my sleep
So many thoughts they cover me
A sweet lullaby of melodies
Carried home to Belmore Place
Fireside flickered lights
A brighter sign of winter pines
I live it up somewhere you'll find
I'm living up on Belmore Place |

“Breakaway”
Album: “Happy Pills”
Released: July 22, 1998 |

Who was it set you off today?
Always someone wants to take a bow
So you leave it now where you left it off
And then I watch you carry it all
Sometimes we'll slip, fall, fade
We'll fuck it all up
Leaving this town we'll all go
Who was it set you up today?
Always someone wish to pull it off
So they'll pick it up where we let it fall
And then we'll watch them stumble alone
Sometimes we whine to fine-tune our own souls
Leaving this town it's too slow
In all ways in 2 days
Gotta breakaway now from this town
Gotta breakaway now from it all
Gotta breakaway now and soar high
Never gonna come down
Who was it let you down today?
Always someone who takes it over all
So we'll leave 'em out and break free from the fault
And then we'll watch them learn to crawl
In time they'll slip, fall, fade
They'll fuck it all up
We're leaving this town we'll let them go
in all ways for 2 days
Gotta breakaway now from this town
Gotta breakaway now from it all
Gotta breakaway now and soar high
Never gonna come down
Leave me alone, you want to drag off my cigarette
Find your own, life, it never made promises
In my face again, you know you were never meant
No time for fucking arrogance
Gotta breakaway now from this town |

“Look What You've Done”
Album: “Happy Pills”
Released: July 22, 1998 |
|
I can borrow, if you've got the time
I never needed anybody's help to make up my mind
You won't be here long
Enough to stand out
You're on fi fi fire till everybody finds out
Look what you've done, done to my head
Look what you've done, look what you've done
Done to my head, you've got me thinking
Maybe I will and maybe I won't
Maybe I can't but God only knows
I won't be the puppet strings you hold on
Come tomorrow, it's a sign of the times
It's coming down now
Shelter won't save you my friend
So sit down till you learn
And sit down till you grow
You mi mi mi might turn if you'd only let yourself go
Look what you've done, done to my head
Look what you've done, look what you've done
Done to my head
Maybe I will and maybe I won't
Maybe I can't but God only knows
I won't be the puppet strings you hold on
I see you depend over and over on logic
I can't understand
Who kept you floating, my friend?
Kept your head above water
Rough seas hit you harder
I should have just let you drown
Maybe I will and maybe I won't
Maybe I can't, but God only knows
I won't be the puppet strings you hold on |

Album: “Into The Sun”
Released: July 22, 2008 |

Hey: Is there something you’ve got on your mind?
Can you speak a bit louder?
Wait: Listen close to these words & you'll find,
It gets harder to swallow their lies
Stay: All they ask is you follow them fools!
Yes you've made it so far so you
Play: Bring your friends to our party recruit,
It'll take you much further
Oh this is your way
Your cunning destruction
No we cannot stay
We'll say fuck your consumption
If I stood for you, and I bled for you
Would you come and save me?
If we took a chance, did it all again
Would you run away with me?
So you prey
On the loneliest cubs in this zoo
All the weak and unknowing just clay
You can mold and conform them the rules
We must break your bad habits
Oh this is your way
All its cunning destruction
No we cannot stay
We'll say fuck you consumption
If I stood for you, and I bled for you
Would you come and save me?
If we took a chance, did it all again
Would you run away with me?
Stand up for who we are
Stand up with I and I
Stand up for who we are
Stand up your right |

“Surrendering”
Album: “Into The Sun”
Released: July 22, 2008 |
|
I’m in the need
Of someone to confide
Surrendering
Cause I’m not as strong as you’d think
Uncommonly
This desire that holds our eyes
You need to dig deep
Cause I can’t but reason I cover up
Better than most, I’m surrendering.
I can’t believe that you were ever on my side
But who holds the keys
Of who I am and why this life
I want to be free
This indecision from all sides
You need to dig deep
Cause I can’t but reason I cover up
Better than most, I’m surrendering.
Could somebody please give me something to hold,
Something to numb why I’m feeling alone
Beginning to think that the older we get
The more that we think, the less we know.
I can’t but reason I cover up
Better than most, I’m surrendering.
I cover up better than most,
Yes I cover up better than most,
I’m surrendering
I’m in the need
Of someone to confide
Surrendering
Cause I’m not as strong as you’d think |

“Into The Sun”
Album: “Into The Sun”
Released: July 22, 2008 |

I’ve been blinded by
The beauty of your eye
This worries me (Whispers)
Sunshine my love
The meanings of her words do move
Undressed indoors
To me it’s lust
Oh we got high, time to rain it all over my
Sunshine my love, oh be still
If this is my time then I’m running late my angel.
Always into the sun
Wings ablaze, I’m alive, I fight.
Always into the sun
Unsteady me, no more no more no more.
I’ve unsteady days
You flicker in my gaze
This hurries me (Whispers)
Tic Toc my love
Beneath it all it’s clear
It’s deeper than, deeper than the deepest sea.
She isn’t ready for it, she isn’t ready for
Anything, anything that might hurt or further me away
Goodbye my love, will you sing this song?
When my time has come and I’m running late my angel.
Always into the sun
Wings ablaze, I’m alive, I fight
Always into the sun
To unsteady me no more
Unsteady, dying, maybe wounded
I’m wide awake and I’m not sleeping
Always into the sun
Wings ablaze, I’m alive, I fight
Sitting here awaiting cover
To see the one that never got away
She still stops so far so far still further
won’t you hold her still
If only love would love her love would love my love
would love me martyr
Sitting here awaiting cover |

“Underneath It All'”
Album: “Into The Sun”
Released: July 22, 2008 |
|
Oh my dying hands deny
As seasons dance around
I am but one amongst the losing race
The massive fear resounds
I come before the greater good of men
My lessons learned to lie
I am a son of war my father’s son
I’ve amassed a force ally
Who travels on? Who travels on?
Oh the empty souls charade
As colors fade then fold
I’ve begun to spin the hands of time
as desperate men are sold
I come before the greater good of men
My lessons learned to lie
Hanging by the threads of your lesser sins
at the expense of your decline
Who travels on? Who travels on?
I come from near and far
I come from face to face
I come to carry on
underneath it all. |

“Miss You”
Album: “Into The Sun”
Released: July 22, 2008 |
|
All, all is not alright
Your role it played through time
Come and rescue me
You’re needed here at home
Your Space, a moment in time
A hand to hold a hand I tried
Who was it called to you?
Who called?
The stories alive with hellos and goodbyes
Bright lights, first kiss and drunken nights
How I miss you
Hey, I can’t wait another day
Hey, that crooked smile upon your face
No they’ll never get old
all the stories you told
From the beach to the ring
to the songs of your soul
How I miss you
Like the rain
Falling cold outside
It covered me the day you died
You could have waited one more day
I should’ve called
I dream of your life the war and the fight
The music you played and the love for your wife
And I miss you
Hey, I can’t wait another day
Hey, that crooked smile upon your face
And they’ll never get old
all the stories you told
From the beach to the ring
to the songs of your soul
How I miss you
& I’m mad at the age
That stole you away
By surviving that beach
It gave me my stay
And I understand by this that I am
All that you were was changed by that sand
& I miss you
Hey, I can’t wait another day
Hey, that crooked smile upon your face
And they’ll never get old
all the stories you told
From the beach to the ring
to the songs of your soul
How I miss you |

“How Does It Feel”
Album: “Into The Sun”
Released: July 22, 2008 |
|
I just want to thank you
For all that you’ve done.
The mess you’ve made,
Your allegations.
I don’t want to blame you
But I need to crackdown
You’re essential to this process,
And the essence of my breakdown.
I can’t wait to sell you, to the village of fools
You’re a violent hangover, malicious, so cruel
You can’t keep a secret?
You can’t lock it up tight?
You’re a sea of information
spilling out from all sides.
I think I might find you a
A little clumsy and aloof,
atop a mountain of sand
Unhinged in untruths.
How does it feel, upon your throne?
How does it feel to be all alone?
How does it feel to crawl so low?
You’re the king of nothing, you’re just a show.
How does it feel?
I will give you no words
cause I choose a mute stance
It’s hard enough to explain
to the smart as well as the ass
You couldn’t keep it secret
You couldn’t lock it up tight
You are a sea of information
bleeding out of the lies.
How does it feel, upon your throne?
How does it feel to be all alone?
How does it feel to crawl so low?
You’re the king of nothing, you’re just a show.
How does it feel?
One might deceive, one might align,
one more disease, yeah, the great divide!
How does it feel to be on your own?
You are the seed, welcome to the show! |

“A Kiss Before”
Album: “Into The Sun”
Released: July 22, 2008 |
|
I can’t quite breathe alone
the patience pressing harder still
Have I lost my call
my fantasies all unfulfilled?
What can I liken to these seas?
A kiss before may bury me
To drown within a day is closer on the brink.
I find less time for those that can’t forgive me
I find it hard to keep my hands from shaking
Just one more kiss before the dying
I won’t get out
I won’t get out alive
It’s all uphill from here I’ve walked 1000 miles of you
The final cut to slip but never had the follow through
A vagrant of song melodies
A kiss before my tendencies
I carry a blade to keep the scars that never wash away.
I find less time for those that can’t forgive me
I find it hard to keep my hands from shaking
Just one more kiss before the dying
I won’t get out
I won’t get out alive
Through time my memories have jaded
The innocence of child has faded
I break the chase the ones that left me
All alone
I find less time for those that can’t forgive me
I find it hard to keep my hands from shaking
Just one more kiss before the dying
I won’t get out
I won’t get out alive
I won’t get out alive |

“Breathe Me In”
Album: “Into The Sun”
Released: July 22, 2008 |
|
You came out of nowhere and our eyes collide
Like a wall collapsing a crushing tide
I saw you laughing I saw your smile
It made me anxious, it made me high.
You ask I answer no, that seats been removed
You’re a deep-rooted tree, an artist’s muse
I watch you listen I watch you share
You make me want more
and you make me scared
You’re so much more than I’d ever hoped
Oh won’t you breathe me in
So I am whole
We’re miles from home, we’re one another’s tribe
An autumn season in a summer’s time
I’ve watched you circle and I’ve watched you fall
You make me feel what I thought I could
never feel at all.
You’re so much more than I’d ever hoped.
Won’t you breathe me in
So I am whole
Let it out; let it go ok to breathe.
Let it out; let it go ok to bleed
You are so much more than I’d ever
So much more than I’d ever
Let it out; let it go ok to breathe.
Let it out; let it go ok
You are so much more than I’d ever
So much more than I’d ever hoped
Won’t you breathe me in |

“Lover - Come Back To Me”
Album: “Into The Sun”
Released: July 22, 2008 |
|
D’you ever see yourself in my eyes?
Did you ever think that maybe I’d be lost without you?
D’you ever think that I was alright
You knew all along
D’ya ever try to sing my songs?
Did you ever take a walk I wasn’t walking with you?
Did you love me just to be loved?
I knew all along, I didn’t try.
Sometimes I like to be alone
Sometimes I try to telephone...
Lover, come back to me,
Lover, come back to me,
In your arms is where I need to be
I am alone
I am alone
A raging sea.
I want to taste your bronze skins delights.
Did you ever want to be the sun that browns me?
D’ya ever think that I might decide?
To ask you to stay, put up a fight.
Sometimes I like to be alone
Sometimes I try to telephone...
Lover, come back to me,
Lover, come back to me,
In your arms where I need to be
Lover you come back to me
Lover, come back to me,
Lover, come back to me,
In your arms where I need to be
I am alone
A raging sea |

“Consider Us”
Album: “Into The Sun”
Released: July 22, 2008 |
|
Consider us the long lonely road.
Defenders of the brittlest of bones.
The dressers of the prettiest of clothes.
Our time is gonna come but we’ll have no where to go.
What do we see before we die, is it beautiful?
What do we say to make you cry, is it wonderful?
What do I sing to save your life, is it magical?
How would you feel if we we’re lying?
Remember us we we’re the last ones on your mind.
Escapers from the debased and denied
The rest is up to you sinners we aligned.
Our time is on the run and it’s left us to decide.
What do we see before we die, is it beautiful?
What do we say to make you cry, is it wonderful?
What do I sing to save your life, is it magical?
How would you feel if we we’re lying?
What do we see before we die, is it beautiful?
What do we say to make you cry, is it wonderful?
What do I sing to save your life, is it magical?
How would you feel if they we’re lying? |
