Float Away Forever
03:50

|

I look out my window
Another day of ice and snow
And I think about this mess I'm in
And this love I used to know
And these days have grown so cold
I just wanna warm my bones
In the morning sun
There comes a day when the pain becomes your lover
And on that day you'll wanna Float Away Forever
But see, ya never really know
With all the lies that you are told
So keep your chin up to the sky
And stray from sticks and stones
Cuz we'll all be goin home
Where we can rest our achin bones
In the morning sun
Each day I wake to another painful reminder
That I should just float away from this place forever
Come with and we'll float up to the sun
We'll leave everything in the dust
Take my hand and we'll go together
There's no keepin our feet here on the ground
Lets kiss up in the clouds
Take my hand and we'll go together
Baby, hold on tight and we'll go together
We'll Float Away Forever
Come with me and we'll float up to the sun
In a rocket made of love
Take my hand and we'll go together
There's no keepin our feet here on the ground
Nothin holdin us down
Take my hand and we'll go together
Baby, hold on tight and we'll go together
We'll Float Away Forever
Float Away Forever

I wish I knew
How to be more like you
I tried bein me, but it just wouldn't do
I wish I knew
All the right words to say
I wish I knew the rules to the game
Wish I Knew
I wish I knew
How you got to be so cool
I tried bein me, and you'd call me a fool
I wish I knew
Back in the day
Mighta saved myself some heartache and pain
Wish I Knew
Wish I Knew
Who was who
In this world so cruel
Wish I Knew
Wish I Knew
Oh, I wish I Knew
I'm bettin you do too
I Wish I Knew
Wish I Knew
Who was who
In this world so cruel
Wish I Knew
Wish I Knew
Oh, I wish I Knew
I wish I'd a known
Wish I'd a known back then
That I would lose it all in the end...
Wish I Knew
Wish I Knew
Who was who
In this world so cruel
Wish I Knew
Wish I Knew
Oh, I wish I Knew
Wish I Knew
Who was who
In this world so cruel
Wish I Knew
Wish I Knew
Oh, I wish I Knew
I'm bettin you do too
You wish you knew
We wish knew
I wish Knew

Day By Destin Day
02:23
|
|

We're all fallin apart
Right from the start
Our bodies decay
Day By Destin Day
So what's there to say?
We're all driftin away
Try as you may
Day By Destin Day we sigh
Day By Destin Day cry
Day By Destin Day we try
By and by
The hope at my door
Doesn't knock anymore
I'm tired and sore
Day By Destin Day
Forget who you know
Like the wind they will blow
Out of our lives
Day By Destin Day we sigh
Day By Destin Day we cry
Day By Destin Day we try
By and by
Day By Destin Day
It's the unbearable agony
This life of a hangin tree
Wrapped around me
Day By Destin Day
My roots they lay
Under the clay
Buried away
Forever they will stay
Day By Destin Day

Never Not Alone
04:20
|
|
||
This is who I am
This is what I've become
Somewhere down the line
Somethin went wrong
There's been lies I've bought
And lots of battles fought
I still don't know who I am
Or where I belong
Even with all the ones that I've come to know
It's like, in my head
I'm Never Not Alone
There's been things I've seen
There's been things that I've done
Things I wouldn't wish upon anyone
Never been more lost
With no place to run
My absence of faith
Is like a loaded gun
I try to swim but I sink like a stone
In my head, I'm Never Not Alone
Never Not Alone
There's a graveyard beneath my skin
Never Not Alone
Never Not Alone
There's memories and images
Never Not Alone
Endlessly I wander through the dark
I tried to build a fire
Without any spark
It's cold out here
Frozen in fear
It aches inside my bones
In my head
Never Not Alone
In my head
Never Not Alone
In my head
Never Not Alone

You don't know me
And Brother, I don't know you
We don't know what each other's been through
Let's get together
Share some stories
And share a bottle of relief
And escape from it all
Compare our scars
And clean out the Wounds
Clean out the Wounds...
You don't know me
And Sister, I don't know you
The look on your face says ya feel it too
Let's get together
Sit by the fire
And warm our achin bones
And forget about it all
Compare our scars
And clean out the Wounds
Clean out the Wounds...
We're all just Wounded people
Lost in our Wounded ways
Walkin through this Wounded world
We're all Wounded today
No, There's nothin to fear
We're all Wounded here
No, There's nothin to fear
We're all Wounded here
No, There's nothin to fear
We're all Wounded here
No, There's nothin to fear
We're all Wounded here
We're all just Wounded people
Lost in our Wounded ways
Walkin through this Wounded world
We're all Wounded today
We're all just Wounded people
Lost in our Wounded ways
Walkin through this Wounded world
We're all Wounded today
This world's a Wounded place

Waitin' For A Breeze
02:54
|
|
||
We used to love to make a wish on a shooting star
I've seen three tonight so far
They always make me feel so small now
Imagine life, like a grain of sand
Just driftin on down a broken hourglass now
So why do we pretend to know?
Cuz everybody knows
But nobody knows
And everybody learns
Still nobody grows and
It's easy for me to be confused
Cuz everybody sees but no ones guilty
And everybody sat there watching their TV's while
These eyes have been watchin leaves on these trees
Just Waitin' For A Breeze to life me up
So far away, come take me to
A place where I can think
A place where there is no confusion or
Planes crashin down out the big, blue sky
A place where nobody cries

Not As I Do
03:53
|
|

"Do what I say,
Don't do what I do"
I've had lots a time
To think those lines through
Those were the words
That you spoke to me
I'm older now
I think I see whatcha mean
Think I see what you mean
"Do what I say,
Don't do what I do"
All I ever wanted
Was the truth
Those were the words
Through the years haunted me
I'm older now
I think I see whatcha mean
Think I see what you mean
"Do what I say kid, don't ya dare do what I do"
Do what I say kid, and this life will be good to you
This world can take a good man,
Take a good man and make him mean
And I don't want my daughter,
Growin up feelin like me, no
But still, I find myself sayin the same thing too...
"Do as I say kid, Not As I Do"
"Do as I say kid, Not As I Do"
Not As I Do

One Sick Summer
05:56
|
|

Just past the waves, beyond the horizon
Another friend of mine dyin
It's so hard for me to keep on smilin
With one more Mother cryin
Lord, give me the strength to find my way
I've tried a hundred times
But it's still the same
Tell me what we should do to ease the pain
To ease the brain
This has been One Sick Summer
And my head is screamin fire
Everything's a blur...
One Sick Summer
This has been One Sick Summer
One I know I'll never forget
Left me punctured...
One Sick Summer
One Sick Summer

Ol' Familiar Sting
04:17
|
|

What do ya do?
Where do ya go?
When you're all alone,
And you're losin control
The sun, it won't shine
It's always too cold
The ones that you think you know,
You never really know
And ya feel nothin at all, but the sting...
That Ol' Familiar Sting
I'd rather walk alone
Through the dirt and the snow
Then be someone's puppet
On a string in this show
I'm tired of givin up
I'm tired of givin in
I just wanna be myself
Before the end begins
And there's nothin left at all
Nothing left at all, but the sting...
That Ol' Familiar Sting
Ol' Familiar
An Ol' Familiar Sting lurks in my bones
And it never leaves me alone
Ol' Familiar Sting
It Haunts me every day, in every single way
Haunts me the most when I try to sleep
Ol' Familiar Sting
Ol' Familiar
Ol' Familiar Sting
Ol' Familiar
That Ol' Familiar Sting

Sad & Lonely Guy
03:05

I went out walkin in the night
Neath them lonely city lights
Nobody by my side
I'm just a Sad & Lonely Guy
When I look up at the sky
Them ol stars just make me cry
That ol moon up in the sky
Knows I'm a Sad & Lonely Guy
I'm just a Sad & Lonely Guy
As I'm walkin through the night
All I seem to do is cry
Got no one to make me smile
I'm just a Sad & Lonely Guy
Got no one to hold me tight
Neath the starry dark sky
All the cars just pass me by
I'm just a Sad & Lonely Guy
I'm just a Sad & Lonely Guy
Walkin til the sunrise
With them tears in my eyes
Bid farewell to the night
I'm just a Sad & Lonely Guy
Won't nobody hold me tight
Just one cold and lonely night
Nobody makes me feel alright
I'm just a Sad & Lonely Guy
I'm just a Sad & Lonely Guy

Carry On

It haunts me in my dreams
Never had enough time for you and me
Just remember when I'm gone
Gotta stay strong to Carry On
Carry On
Torments me everyday
Always had to go, just wanted to stay
Don't forget me I'm gone
Just stay strong and Carry On
Carry On
I'll be comin home soon
No, it won't take me long at all
And you'll be comin with me too
Soon enough girl
Remind yourself you're not alone
And Carry On
Carry On
