Pictures in Heaven

Verse 1
You are exausted and that's not fair
I've been asleep for over a year
But that's o.k. I'll see you again
Right by your side in pictures in heaven

Verse 2
That's not the way I'm supposed to be
I'm trapped inside this image of me

Hey Hey

Verse1
I've fallen Down and I need some help
I can't get up
Don't need no doctor telling me no joke
I'm coming down with a nasty life
But that's o.k. hey hey
I just need a chance to take a walk

Verse 2
I'ts been a while since I heard my self
I just need a chance to listen up
I don't think it's going to do no good
But that's o.k. hey hey
Cause I can't sing
But you can too

Verse 3
I need a shoulder to cry on
Someone strong who will love me too
I need a leg just to carry me
Maybe then I could get through, to you

Bridge
See me in bed you know I'm really pale
But in the morning I can get it straight,
get it straight outside
Wings

Verse1
Did he see my face
Was it what he wanted
What could I say
Take back my heartache
You, touch my tears and you
Chase away my fears and you
take me away, with your sighs

Chorus
Your sighs will guide the way
You wings can, make me fly
I have, found my life
You wings can, wings can fly
Take me far away
Yes I say it's over
All is said and done
And yes I really mean it
But theres still that smoking gun
You, touch my tears and you
Chase away my fears and you
Take me away, with your sighs

Chorus
Fly Away

Verse 1
I wake from, this dream that fades away
You, are gone when I awake
And you fly across the ocean with a bird that shows the way
And you listen to the robin, cause it has the words to say
That you, were meant to fly away

Chorus
I see your face in the sky
I miss it everyday
I look up at my God
He's taken you away
Ahh... ohh..
And I will miss you, forever
Ever, and a day

Verse 2
I think of, the things that I would say
But, the words get in the way
So I throw it to the wind and tell it, make it go away
And I listen to the robin as he has the words to say that you
Were meant to fly away

Chorus


Songs from the upcoming CD "Goodbye"

Goodbye

Verse 1
If I seem a little strange
That's because I am
Noone left to blame
I never gave a damn
Friends come and go
Seasons change
But I'll let them know
I won't forget their names

Chorus
See the years pass me by
No more tears left to cry
Singing songs about the rain, noone got it anyway
So now I say goodbye

Verse 2
Saw a friend the other day
It just wasn't the same
Nothing left to say
It's funny how things change
But life goes on
Growing up
And our faces change
Forever growing old

Chorus

Bridge
Brian, Michael, David, Christy, Leslie left their mark on me
Someone's on a plane to somewhere, I don't think I've ever seen
If I could, yes I would
Fly away, I'm going with you
Got my coat, got my map
On my way, I'm going with you

Chorus


Retail Store

Verse 1
I met you in the parking lot
Of a well known retail store
All the signs were facing your direction
Right outside the door
And you held me in your arms
As I held you tight in mine
Knowing everything was perfect
Everything was fine we knew that

Chorus
Everything would work out right
Everything was out of sight
When I met the girl next door
She sent my heartache walking out the door

Verse 2
Married on the morning of our
High school senior prom
No one had a clue as we were
Dancing arm in arm
And nothing was the same
As you proudly took my name
I asked you for your hand and you said
Take my heart instead you knew that


Letters

Verse 1
If you saw me on the street
Would you call my name
Or look me in the eyes
Or hang your head in shame

Pre Chorus
I call your name
Hoping maybe you would stay
ask me how my life has been
I call your name

Chorus
All the memories pass by
And I often wonder why
No one called to ask me whether
They could leave and stay forever
Do they ever mention my name

Verse 2
Found our letters in a box
And thought about our youth
Sometimes I'm alright
But often I will cry

Pre Chorus

Chorus

Verse 3
Then you call me on the phone
It's been a long long time
We talked for more than hours
Sweetness through the lines

Pre chorus

Chorus


L.A.

Verse 1
I find my spot here on this couch
With a soft drink and a slouch
While I try to find a way
Of moving to L.A.

Chorus
As I'm heading for the door
I'm wanting nothing more
Than to have you by my side
And if you ask me I will say
I'll find a way to stay
And make this place my home

Verse 2
I find it harder every day
To move from where I lay
To make myself move on
To face another dawn

Chorus

Verse 3
All my clothes are neatly packed
No reason to look back
I gladly say goodbye
to those who've sucked me dry

Chorus


Royal Crown

Verse 1
Your long dark hair
Frames a wealth of golden smiles
And I stare
Seems to melt away the miles
I find another painted sky
I see the headlights passing by, my side
And I have waited long enough for now

Chorus
I never thought of this till now
I gotta find away somehow
To take your youth and tame it
Try to make it mine somehow
doing everything to save it
Like a royal golden crown

Verse 2
I read your words
I've collected over time
Another verse
I can place into this rhyme
I step into your little world and smile
My shaking hands are getting wet and while
You ask me if I'd like to come inside

Chorus

Pre chorus
I find the words to say goodbye and I
Make an effort not to cry but I
Can feel the thunder forcing rain from shine

Chorus


Disconnected

Verse 1
Well I call the operator
to connect me to your line
Will she tell me all your secrets
They've gathered all the time
I don't know another number
I don't know if one exists
But I know your heart's unlisted
Disconnected from your lips

Chorus
Noone's on the line
It's busy all the time
Well I don't know the operator
I don't even know the time
But she's got me disconnected
On a phone that isn't.. isn't mine

Verse 2
Well I'm driving down the highway
Just past 59
And I'm looking for an exit
And reading hotel signs
Then I drive up to a payphone
With a quarter and a dime
And I ask the operator
Connect me one more time

Chorus


Christmas Day

Verse 1
You fell into my arms and made me love you
Your kisses gave me strength to carry on
No one ever really meant I love you
No one ever really showed they cared

Chorus
Christmas day
Reminds me of the simple way
You love me and you say
You always make today
Chrismas day

Verse 2
You left your coat beside the table
And looked at me like you were going to cry
You held me in your arms and said I love you
I stared you in the eye and wondered why

Chorus


The Road

Verse 1
Thinking of a warm summer day
On the side of the road
All the games we would play
Out where no one would know
And all the things you would say
How your face it would glow
Reading Earnest Hemmingway
On the side of the road

Verse 2
All the times we would kiss
Your mouth like a rose
Taste of Cherry on your lips
Little kiss on your nose
Now it's those times that I miss
But you know how it goes
When your parents got pissed
And we took to the road

Chorus
Now I'm staring
At these cracks in the road
Like our lifetimes
As we quickly grow old
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Chorus

Verse 3
Throw my head back and laugh
Smile and throw on some clothes
Fill the car full of gas
Stroke some paint on your toes
Stand and fold up the map
No one knows where we'll go
Leaving on a warm summers day
On the side of the road


Fire

Verse 1
Here I sit to pen this song
Holding on to years long gone
Nothing left to lead me on
Can't help feel that I am done

Chorus
My fire is out
Spark has gone
That lights the way
To the story of my life
Don't let me go
I'll let you know
Sit down I'll let you know
The story of my life

Verse 2
Fell into this endless sleep
Right into this endless Dream
Nothing left to comfort me
Life outside my desperate reach

Chorus

Bridge
I fell asleep
And had the strangest dream
Fell into your pit of raging fire
But it's gone
It's warmth has died away

Chorus


The Ocean

Verse 1
The waves are crashing slowly
Across the sand and me
I'm leaving all my friends behind me
On the beach
And I'm leaveing for the ocean
Way across the sea
Gonna find you where I left you

Verse 2
I look up from the bottom
The green and rocky reef
I'm quikcly running out of air
It's getting hard to breath
And I'm sittin in the ocean
Bottom of the sea
While I hold my breath and hope you'll
come and rescue me cause I'm

Chorus
Swimming in the ocean
In the salty sea
Watching all those ten foot waves
Crashing over me
And I'm fine

Verse 3
Now I'm dead and bloated
Little left of me
Seems like everybody's had
A little piece of me
And I'm getting tired
Can't they let me be
Just take my one good eye and
Hold it up to see cause I'm

Chorus


Ordinary Man

Verse 1
Take a little look here at this
Ordinary man he is
Looking for something that has
Slipped through his hands
Looking out the window
Looking in the trees
Tripping on the pavement and
Falling to his knees

Pre Chorus
And he hides away
Behind his smile and says how are you?
How have you been?
It's good to see you
You're feeling well I pray
Well don't just stand there
Come out and play

Chorus
Well it's a beautiful day
For playing silly games
Your cares behind you
As we call each other names
I came to see you
When your mother passed away
Your face just broke my heart
Take me back to the start

Verse 2
Take another look here as he
Giggles and smiles he has
Found a little part of him that has
Not come apart
But he's still at the window
Looking in the trees
As the world around him tries to
Bring him to his knees

Pre Chorus

Chorus


One of Them

Verse 1
Juli steps down the hall
Casting her eyes towards the floor
Moving past rows of her peers
Hoping she makes it to the door
Without someone staring or looking at her twice
What is it haunting her soul
Will no one ever ask her does on one really care
Why she's living in an artificial World

Chorus 1
And she wants to be one of them
But she's changing her mind
No one has offered her
What she was looking to find

Verse 2
Bobby is the Anti-Christ hero
Making his scene at the fair
Fearless he makes an impression
As he runs his long fingers through his hair
As he walks through the door of his trialer in the woods
His father nearly knocks him to the floor
And he has none to talk to and he has none to care
Why he's fighting this war here in his home

Chorus 2
And he hates everyone of them
Fearing he'll find
Pieces of all of them
Leaving thier mark on his mind

Bridge
Now both of them are growing up
And finding they both have thier place
Changing maturing
And witing their name on the page
Juli writes a number one novel
Bobby's on tour with his band
And here I sit with this pen in my hand
While I think of you being a fan
And I'm all alone
And I'm out of place
As I'm making this delicate change
I'm gonna be that star on your wall
I'm gonna be yeah.. I'm working I'm gettin back up

Verse 3
Angel threw her coat on the bed
Dancing for the lovers in her mind
Looking through the words of her heros
Searching for someone with a sign
And she looks thourgh her pictures of Lennon and the Cure
Boys and teen idols with long hair
and she cuts out their faces for places on her walll
One day maybe she will put me there

Chorus 3
Then I could be one of them
Helping her write
Pages of memories
That are much better than mine
And now we are one of them
Helping her write
Pages of memories
Someone to turn on the light


King of all things

Verse 1
Here as I sing my last song
Pray my last prayer
Then move along
Tears that once marked my past
Now lead the way
As I pack my bags

Pre Chorus
Step onto the plane and sit back
Feel the engines pushing me back
Looking out the window and I wave

Chorus
I am the king of all things
looking down and out onto your houwse
I am the king of all things
High avove this kingdom made of clouds
Cause I am, I am the king, king of all... things

Verse 2
Now as I look where I've been
Things I have done
Count every sin
You my brother and friend
Give me the strength
To leave you again
