never you mind

every double life

these are models of my own design
two circles never meeting
one in '92 and '95
and it's all been up to me
may not listen to own advice
it can be overwhelming
there are strains on every double life
but you won't hear me complain
yes it's true
you knew
you believed it
you should just turn
and walk away
took a complement in photograph
and committed it to memory
a model how im not to act
at least not imitate
wouldn't it of been ideal
if it all fell down from heaven
and how am i suppose to feel
when i know what you did wrong
yes it's true
you knew
you believed it
you should just turn
and walk away
yes it's true you knew
i was leaving
were under the same
skyline today

lonely hearts

all that i have is finally over
good knocking again
ive given the chance, do it all over
to lose her again
sleep tight, never you mind
lonely hearts breaking tonight
never i dared had i, been close to sober
is out of my head
back of my mind if i only had shown her
shed be mine again
sleep tight, never you mind
lonely hearts are breaking tonight

proceed with caution

sober you up, the odds in your favor
and I wouldn't wager anything
the clouds in your ears, hold off your bets now
it's all going to well
something has got to give, I wouldn't wait for it
baby your bet, its over due
your lucky to be alive
so I wouldn't count on anything
proceed with caution from here on in

slow down


hold back my lip
watch my step
spinning world hurts me
facing backwards
might cause you to slip
to slow down
watch your step
take a little trip down
knows where you land
your broken hands scratch my back
mend me now
my chance to move on
whos to know
the outterside
the outside my glimpse
a glimpse gather my sense
sit back and mend myself
take a walk outside
to bored to sleep ......
not enough time to get anything half way done........

mcshame

i know im not supposed to be
it isnt different
your unimpressed by industry
you just stopped listening
give it all away
any god damn day
your all i want
if i have to choose
im choosing you

goodbye


wait up for me
you're where I want to be
stop long enough to say goodbye.......goodbye......goodbye
it's all said and done
keeps me at ease
sings us both to sleep
we don't have to say goodbye.....goodbye.....goodbye
all said and done....goodbye

cry me a river
i misunderstood
for all ever after
i knew that you would (how i knew that you would)
i didnt turn on, you turned away

cry me a river
i misunderstood
for all ever after
knew that you (how i knew that you would)

no one is listening anyway (time is the best at for giving in)

drama queen


get over some how
my drama queen
old wounds and rebounds
old ha.......
i got the time
youve got the notion
new faces repeat
my drama queen

make me change my mind

dont expect so much at all
if the test does back at me
if i should fail, if i should fall
i will lose no stability
no none at all
cause its the best just not to try
get away, got no family but this
and this little piece of heaven
that im not about to risk
what if i fall, what if i never make it home, home
thats a fear, that i cant bring myself to face
so let it go, dont bring it up
put more value on what you want to give up
what if i fall, nothing could make me change my mind
my travel star, and they break more broken hearts
if i was younger i would run away
my dependents made me stay
now im tired, and afraid
and the world, it lies a frightening place
thats a fear, i cant bring myself to face

when we two parted

baby, i see you've made yourself all sick again
didn't i do a good job of pretending?
you're saying that the victim doesn't want it to end
good. i get to dress up and play the assassin again
it's my favorite
it's got personality
i should have seen this shit coming down the hall
every night i spent in that bed with you facing the wall
if i could have only once heard you scream
to say you were alive
instead of watching you abandoning yourself
baby, you can open your eyes now
and please allow me to present you with a clue
if i inflict the pain
then baby only i can comfort you
out of the night we come
and into the night we go
if it starts to hurt you
then you have to say so

never treat others

you can run from the...
and all that you lose
theres the chance to make peace
with the path that you choose
little apple im sure it as small as you...
the bitter reminder
the drowns and the drink
i admit i regret that im meeting you
im depressed your the mess that ive looked up to
ive attract every word that i say
and i swear that ill never treat others that way
maybe this isnt anything like it should be
be humble, famous it falls perfectly
i have based some decision on choices youve made
but i see to my error made a mistake
i admit i regret that im meeting you
im depressed youre the mess that ive looked up to
ive attract every word that i say
and i swear that ill never treat others that way.....
dont open you mouth
dont worry about it
when im in your place never allow it
i admit i regret that im meeting you
im depressed youre the mess that ive looked up to
ive attract every word that i say
and i swear that ill never treat others that way


i wont run away


1... 2... 3... 4
walk away the day i must leave you behind
like weve waltzed around the words so many times
we remind the time the motions will repeat
but the distance doesnt finalize defeat
so it goes
theres a wait that never seems to let it go
and im passing though the atmosphere like smoke
on the way the day afraid from town to town
every anecdote i live gets written down
every letter ever sent her does her mind
that our memories are always on my mind
so it stays
wait for the world to stop and i wont run away......
at least not today
