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
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
Falling in I feel I am falling in, to this again

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 Said, separated world,
Down poison Down down
Body withered, body Died, time to take Away this life
Bad enough to die from One, out 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 wouldn’t die for me, I’ve already died for you
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

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,no,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

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
superman 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,
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 superman 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
Some day 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 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

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
