KRYPTONITE

I took a walk around the world 
To ease my troubled mind 
I left my body laying somewhere 
In the sands of time 
I watched the world float 
To the dark side of the moon 
I feel there is nothing I can do, yeah 
I watched the world float 
To the dark side of the moon
After all I knew it had to be 
Something to do with you 
I really don’t mind what happens now and then As long as you’ll be my friend at the end 
If I go crazy then will you still 
Call me Superman
If I’m alive and well, will you be 
There holding my hand 
I’ll keep you by my side 
With my superhuman might Kryptonite 
You called me strong, you called me weak,
But still your secrets I will keep 
You took for granted all the times 
I never let you down 
You stumbled in and bumped your head, 
If not for me then you would be dead
I picked you up and put you back 
On solid ground 
If I go crazy then will you still
Call me Superman
If I’m alive and well, 
Will you be there holding my hand 
I’ll keep you by my side 
With my superhuman might Kryptonite Yeah!! If I go crazy then will you still 
Call me Superman
If I’m alive and well, will you be there 
Holding my hand 
I’ll keep you by my side 
With my superhuman might Kryptonite 



LOSER 

Breathe in right away, 
Nothing seems to fill this place 
I need this every time, 
Take your lies get off my case 
Someday I will find a love 
That flows through me like this 
This will fall away, this will fall away 
You’re getting closer to pushing me
Off of life’s little edge 
Cause I’m a loser 
And sooner or later 
You know I’ll be dead 
You’re getting closer, 
You’re holding the rope, 
I'm taking the fall 
Cause I’m a loser, 
I’m a loser, yeah 
This is getting old, 
I can’t break these chains that I hold
My body’s growing cold,
There’s nothin left of this mind 
Or my soul 
Addiction needs a pacifier, 
The buzz of this poison is taking me higher
This will fall away,
This will fall away 
You’re getting closer, to pushing me 
Off of life’s little edge 
Cause I’m a loser and sooner or later 
You know I’ll be dead 
You’re getting closer, 
You’re holding the rope and I’m taking the fall Cause I’m a loser 
You’re getting closer, to pushing me 
Off of life’s little edge 
Cause I’m a loser and sooner or later
You know I’ll be dead 
You’re getting closer, You’re holding the rope And I’m taking the fall 
Cause I’m a loser 

 

DUCK AND RUN

To this world I’m unimportant 
Just because I have nothing to give 
So you call this your free country
Tell me why it cost so much to live 
Tell me why 
This world can turn me down
But I won’t turn away, oh no 
I won’t turn around 
All my work and endless measures 
Never seem to get me very far 
Walk a mile just to move an inch 
Now even though
I’m trying so damn hard
I’m trying so hard 
This world can turn me down but 
I Won’t turn away 
And I won’t duck and run, cause 
I’m not built that way 
When everything is gone there is 
Nothing there to fear 
This world cannot bring me down
No cause I’m already here, oh no!
I am already here,
Down on my knees
I am already here, on no,
I am Already here 
I must have told you a thousand times, 
I am not running away
I won’t duck and run 
I won’t duck and run 
I won’t duck and run 
No pass away
This world can turn me down but
I Won’t turn away 
And I won’t duck and run, 
cause I’m not built that way 
When everything is gone 
There is nothing there to fear 
This world cannot bring me down
No cause I’m already here 
This world can turn me down 
But I won’t turn away 
And I won’t duck away
Cause I’m not built that way
When everything is gone there 
Is nothing there to fear 
This world cannot bring me down 
No cause I’m already here 

 

NOT ENOUGH

Seven days underpaid 
Gotta give it up
Got no time for this life that I’m livin’ up Shackled down, kicked around, 
Now slave to the grind 
Need some time for myself 
I’ll give you anything that you want me to 
If you don’t have the time so
I’ll get up with you
If you don’t understand man 
You’ve got to believe
There is too much of you but
There is not enough of me
There is not enough of me
Same old song world moves
On while I’m still in bed 
Meet tomorrow today just to 
Get ahead 
Jump the gun on the run,
I’m the only one 
Who thinks that I’m fallin’ behind?
I’ll give you anything that
You want me to 
But I don’t have the time 
So I’ll get up with you 
If you don’t understand 
Man you’ve got to believe 
There is too much of you 
But there is not enough of me
There is not enough of me
I’ll give you anything that you want me to
But I don’t have the time so 
I’ll Get up with you 
If you don’t understand man 
You’ve got to believe 
There is too much of you there
Is too much of me
I’ll give you anything that you want me to
But I don’t have the time so
I’ll Get up with you 
If you don’t understand man
You’ve got to believe 
There is too much of you but there
Is not enough of me

 

BE LIKE THAT 

He spends his nights in California, 
Watching the stars on the big screen
Then he lies awake and he wonders, 
Why can’t that be me 
Cause in his life he is filled 
With all these good intentions
He’s left a lot of things
He’d rather not mention right now
But just before he says goodnight, 
He looks up with a little smile at me, 
And he says, 
If I could be like that,
I would give anything 
Just to live one day, in those shoes
If I could be like that,
I would give anything 
Just to live one day, in those shoes 
If I could be like that, what would I do,
What would I do 
Now and dreams we run 
She spends her days up in the north park, Watching the people as they pass 
And all she wants is just 
A little piece of this dream, 
Is that too much to ask
With a safe home, and a warm bed,
On a quiet little street
All she wants is just that something to
Hold onto, that’s all she needs 
Yeah! If I could be like that, 
I would give anything 
Just to live one day, in those shoes
If I could be like that, what would I do,
What would I do 
I’m falling into this, dreams
We run away 
If I could be like that, 
I would give anything 
Just to live one day, in those shoes 
If I could be like that, what would I do, 
What would I do If I could be like that,
I would give anything 
Just to live one day, in those shoes
If I could be like that, what would I do, 
What would I do
If I could be like that, 
I would give anything 
Just to live one day, in those shoes
If I could be like that, what would I do, 
What would I do 
Falling in I feel I am falling in, to this again.

 

LIFE OF MY OWN

Living risky, never scared, wander 
Closer to the edge 
Nothing valued think no fear, 
Always wondering why you’re here
All your purposes are gone, nothing’s 
Right and nothing’s wrong 
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
Feel no sorrow, feel no pain 
Kiss me while I’m still alive
Kill me while I kiss the sky 
Let me die on my own terms, 
Let me live and let me learn
Now I’ll follow my own way, and
I’ll Live on to another damn day
Freedom carries sacrifice, 
Remember when this was my life 
Looking forward, not behind 
Everybody’s got to cross that line
Free me now to give me a place,
Keep me caged and free the beast 
Falling faster, time goes by, 
Fear is not seen through these eyes 
What there was will never be, 
Now I’m blind and cannot see 
Kiss me while I’m still alive
Kill me while I kiss the sky 
Let me die on my own terms, let me
Live and let me learn 
Now I’ll follow my own way, and
I’ll Live on to another damn day
Freedom carries sacrifice, 
Remember when this was my life 
Kiss me while I’m still alive 
Kill me while I kiss the sky 
Let me die on my own terms, let me
Live and let me learn 
Now I’ll follow my own way, 
And I’ll live on to another damn day
Freedom carries sacrifice,
Remember when this was my life. 

 

THE BETTER LIFE

I’m about to be on the floor again, 
Surely you’re gonna find me here
I’m about to sleep until the end of time,
Drug I take gonna wake
My fear right now 
I’m passing away on to the
Better life I’m passing away on 
To the better 
I’m about to see just how far I can fly,
Surely your gonna break my fall 
I’m about to run as fast as I can,
Head long into that wall
This time I’m passing away on to the
Better life
I’m passing away on 
To the better 
On to the better life 
On to the better 
I’m about to be on the floor again,
Surely you’re gonna find me here
I’m about to sleep until the 
End of time, drug 
I take gonna wake my fear right now 
I’m passing away on to the 
Better life I’m passing away on 
To the better
I’m passing away on to the
Better life 
I’m passing away on 
To the better

 

DOWN POISON

I’ve dreamed about this,
Sixteen days away 
Now you’re here,
And my head lays besides your body, 
Pillowed under mine 
You were poison, 
Spinning round my mind 
Welcome to my world 
She said, do you feel
Alive she said 
It’s all a bad dream, 
Spinning in your lonely head, 
Welcome to my world, 
She said, separated world, 
She said, separated, 
Down poison, 
Down poison, 
Body withered, Body died, 
Time to take away this life 
Bad enough to die from one, 
Not to mention
Four or five 
Welcome to my world 
She said, do you feel alive she said 
It’s all a bad dream, 
Spinning in your lonely head 
Welcome to my world she said,
Separated world, 
She stayed separated 
Down poison, down poison 
Down poison, down 
You weren’t there for me, 
I was there for you 
You weren’t there for me, 
I was there for you 
You weren’t there for me,
I was there for you 
You weren’t there for me, 
I was there for you 
You wouldn’t die for me, 
I’ve died for you 
You wouldn’t die for me,
I’ve died for you
You wouldn’t die for me,
I’ve already died for you 
You wouldn’t die, you wouldn’t die,
You wouldn’t die! 
Welcome to my world she said, 
Do you feel alive she said 
It’s all a bad dream,
Spinning in your lonely head 
Welcome to my world she said, 
Separated world, she stayed separated
Down poison, down poison 
Down poison, down. 

 

BY MY SIDE

They blazed a trail I dared to run 
They built this world and I have come
I need another, like a brother 
For a cryin’ shoulder
This could be the last time, you will
Stand by my side
I can feel my soul it’s bleeding,
Will you fly with me this evening 
Sober mind time now is gone,
They carved my 
Body not of stone 
A pretty maze emptiness, 
I’ve said the hell 
With all the rest
This could be the last time, you will 
Stand by my side 
I can feel my soul it’s bleeding, will you fly
With me tonight 
This could be the last time, you will
Stand by my side 
I can feel my soul it’s bleeding, will you fly 
With me this evening. 

 

SMACK

Rubber headed motor junky,
Run me down and try to stomp me
Throw my life away, and 
I’ll be worthless 
Just like you 
Somewhere now a baby’s crying, 
Down the road his mother’s dying 
Shot a line and blew her mind 
And now she’s turning blue 
Don’t you throw your life away,
Just wait until another day 
Don’t you throw your life away, 
Cause baby I can feel it 
Don’t you ever compromise it, 
Don’t you even realize it
Don’t throw your life away, 
Cause baby I can feel it, now 
Trip and fall, I’m sure you all can tell me
What is on the wall behind the liquor store 
Where you get smacked up all the time
Perfect little life you wasted, 
Overdosed and that death you tasted 
Scared you back into yourself, and now
You walk the line 
Don’t you throw your life away,
Just wait until another day 
Don’t you throw your life away, 
Cause baby I can feel it 
Don’t you ever compromise it, 
Don’t you even realize it 
Don’t throw your life away, 
Cause baby I can feel it, now 
Life away
Life away
Life away 

 

SO I NEED YOU

If you could step into my head, tell 
Me would you still know me 
If you woke up in my bed,
Tell me then would you hold me
Or would you simply let it lie, 
Leaving me to wonder why 
I can’t get you out of this head I call mine 
And I will say 
Oh no I can’t let you go, 
My little girl 
Because you’re holding up my world,
So I need you 
Your imitation of my walk 
And the perfect way you talk
It’s just a couple of the million things
That I love about you
So I need you
So I need you 
So I need you
So I need you 
And if I jumped off the Brooklyn Bridge, 
Tell me would you still follow me 
And if I made you mad today,
Tell me would you love me tomorrow?
Please
Or would you say that you don’t care,
And then leave me standing here
Like the fool who is drowning in dispair 
And screamin’ 
Oh no I can’t let you go,
My little girl 
Because you’re holding up my world,
So I need you 
Your imitation of my walk 
And the perfect way you talk
It’s just a couple of the million 
Things that I love about you 
So I need you 
So I need you 
So I need you 
So I need you 
I’m on my own
I’m on my own
I’m on my own 
Oh no I can’t let you go, 
My little girl 
Because you’re holding up my world, 
So I need you 
Your imitation of my walk 
And the perfect way you talk 
It’s just a couple of the million things
That I love about you 
So I need you 
So I need you
So I need you
So I need you!
