OK

RIVERS OF PAIN OCEANS OF DOUBT
ON THESE I RIDE AND AM TOSSED ABOUT
NO USE SCREAMING OR CRYING
NO ONE HEARS YOU SO STOP TRING
YOU BUILT YOUR WALL AND IT WAS STOUT
NOTHIN GOT THROUGH WHAT'S THAT ALL ABOUT
DECADE AFTER DECADE YOU TENDED IT WELL
ALONG CAME HE WHOM I DONT SPEAK OF AND OVER IT FELL
GRIEF OVER LOSING HIM YES TIS TRUE
BUT THERES SO MUCH MORE MAKING ME BLUE
HE'S NOT TO BLAME FOR ALL MY PAIN AND SORROW
HES ONLY A MAN AND NOT THE RULER OF MY TOMORROW
I GRIEVE FOR LOSSES BOTH GREAT AND SMALL
THERE WAS SO MUCH SHIT BEHIND THAT WALL
SO NOW I WOLLOW AND THRASH ABOUT
SWIMMING IN A FLOOD OF ALL I LET OUT
IN THE END ALL WILL BE RIGHT AND I'LL BE OK
THE WATER RECEDES MORE AND MORE EVERY DAY
STARTING OVER STRONGER I THINK
I GUESS I'VE HEARTBREAK TO THANK

SASSY

CAN I WRITE ONE HAPPY TALE TRY SOMETHING NEW
WARM AND FUZZY NO TRACE OF BLUE
I'LL TELL YOU OF MY LIGHT THATS WHAT I'LL DO
ABSOLUTELY THE BESTR LADY I EVER KNEW
FOR 11 YEARS SHE SHARED MY LIFE
THROUGH THICK AND THIN HAPPINESS AND STRIFE
IN ALL THAT TIME SHE NEVER LET ME DOWN
WHEN I'M BRUISED AND BATTERED SHES SAFE AND SOUND
SHE DRYS MY TEARS AND LIFTS ME UP
IN PRIZES FOR LOYALTY SDED TAKE THE CUP
FOR ALL MY LIFE I'M FOREVER BOUND
WHAT DID I DO BEFORE SHE WAS AROUND
THE LOVE OF MY LIFE CENTER OF MY WORLD
THIS IS MY ODER FOR MY SASSY GIRL

I NEVER HAD

SO NOW I'LL TRY TO UNDERSTAND WHY I FELL FOR THIS MAN
HE SAID HE WANTED ME TIS TRUE BUT WAS IT ALL A NEFARIOUS PLAN
WHEN HE KISSED ME IT WAS ALL A BEAUTIFUL LIE
A GAME HE WAS PLAYING BUT WHY OH WHY
I REALLY THOUGHT HE LOVED ME AT LEAST AT FIRST
ONCE HE MOVED IN THAT FANTASY BUBBLE BURST
SO WHAT CHANGED IN ME WHY DID I SO EASILY FALL
ONE STUPID KISS GOOD GOD GET A GRIP WAS THAT ALL
NOW HE'S CONQUERED PLUNDERED AND MOVED ON AND SO MUST YOU
TRY TO SHORE UP THAT FRAGILE HEART STILL BROKEN IN TWO
GRAB THOSE BOOTSTRAPS PICK YOURSELF UP DUST YOURSELF OFF
MOVE ON WITH MY LIFE CEST LE VIE I TRIED AND I LOST
WHY DIDN'T IT WORK WAS IT ME WHAT DO I LACK
WAS IT ALL ME OR IS HE FUCKED UP AND OUT OF WHACK
I WISH I KNEW WHAT TO DO WHERE TO GO WHAT POTION TO TRY
I STILL WANT HIM I STILL NEED HIM YET I HATE HIM ALL I CAN DO IS CRY
HE SAYS HE TRIED BUT HE'S FULL OF IT CAUSE THAT IS SO NOT TRUE
 HE KNEW FROM THE FIRST MOMENT HE WAS PAINTING ME IN SHADES OF BLUE
ACTIONS SPEAK MUCH LOUDER THAN  A VELVETY LYING WORD
TOO BAD I WAS LISTENING WITH MY HEART IT NEVER HEARD
SO HERE I AM LEFT LONELY BEREFT FILLED WITH AGONY AND JUST SAD
PINING AWAY FOR MICHAEL HE THAT I NEVER HAD

INEXPLICABLY

SOME LIVES A SONG WHILE MINE IS A DIRGE
Y'ALL SO HAPPY AND GAY FOR ME NEVER AN URGE
I'M MARKED SET APART FOR ALL ETERNITY CURSE
WHEN DID I MAKE THAT TURN COULD IT BE WORSE
TWO FROKS IN THE ROAD AND BOTH PATHS DISAPPEARED
STUMBLING BLINDLY PANICED FRANTIC WORSE THAN I HAD FEARED
UNABLE TO FIND MY WAY BACK
MUSIC DYING LAST CHORD FADING TO BLACK
SILENCE ENGULF ME IN TERROR TOO AFRAID TO CARRY ON
DRAGGED FORWARD INEXPLICABLY UNABLE TO ESCAPE THIS DEAD ZONE
UNABLE TO BOW OUT THOUGH TH GODS KNOW I TRIED
WHY DOES THE BODY STILL LIVE WHEN THE SPIRIT HAS DIED

OUT OF MY MIND

LIFE GOES ON THE WROLD KEEPS TURNING
I KEEP TRYING TO KEEP UP MOVING LEARNING
HAVE I FALLEN BEHIND WHERE HAVE Y'ALL GONE
NO ONE IN SIGHT ARE YOU HIDING AM I LEFT ALONE
TRYING NOT TO PLUMMET OFF THE CLIFF THE EDGE IS SO NEAR
WHAT LIES BEYOND THE ABYSS NOTHING I FEAR
WHAT IS LIFE YOU LIVE LOVE AND DIE
2 OUTTA THREE AINT BAD NICE TRY
UNLOVED BY ANY I FAILED THAT SILLY TEST
IS FATE THAT CRUEL OR IS LIFE A JEST
RUNNING BLINDLY FALLING FURTHER BEHIND
SCREAMING AND WAILING COMPLETELY OUT OF MY MIND

IMAGINE THAT

DECADES GONE BY AND I ALWAYS REMAIN ALONE
NO ONE TO LOVE ME STILL ON MY OWN
TO WHAT DO I OWE THIS SAD LONELY FATE
I NEED TO DO SOMETHING BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE
AM I THAT UGLY OR MAYHAPS THE FAT
MAYBEY I'M JUST REPULSIVE OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT
EVERYONE SAYS I'M FUNNY SMART AND CUTE
ARE THEY ALL LYING OR JUST FULL OF SHIT IS THAT POINT MOOT
DONT LIKE BEIN ALONE BUT WHAT THE HELL CAN I DO
I GUESS I'LL GET OLD AND WITHER AWAY
TIME MARCHES OVER MY FACE DAY AFTER DAY
SO I'LL BE ODD AND JUST HAVE LOTS OF CRITTERS AROUND
TOO SILLY AND SENILE TO EVER HEAR LOVES SOUND
GOOFY AS A LOON CRAZY AS A BAT
SAD LONELY FAGGOT IF YOU CAN IMAGINE THAT

FLOW

LOVE IS NO ANSWER IT'S A QUESTION UNANSWERED FOR ME
NO QUICK FIXES NO INSTAND CURES FIDDLE DEE DEE
TAKE A PILL ADD WATER SIMPLY DOESNT WORK
 SCARY LOOKIN IN YOUR OWN HEART WHERE MONSTERS AND DARKNESS LURK
TERROR AROUND THE CORNER UNCONFRONTED IN THIS LIFE
STAY STRONG AND BRAVE YOU CAN WEATHER THE STRIFE
BE WHO YOU WERE MEANT TO BE BUT ARE AFRAID TO SET FREE
DESERVING YOU ARE THIS MUCH IS TRUE JUST WAIT AND SEE
ANYONE LUCKY TO BATHE IN YOUR  LUMINESCENT GLOW
SO TEAR DAOWN THE DAM OPEN THE FLOODGATES AND LET YOUR HEART FLOW

WHO AM I

WHO AM I WHAT DO I SEEK
CRAWLING THROUGH LIFE MILD AND MEEK
ILLUSIONS OF STRENGTH HIDING TERROR
WHO'S THAT COWARD LOOKIN OUT THE MIRROR
TO BE ME BUT HOW DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT TO TRY
SMALL FALTERING STEPS INCHING FORWARD AS I CRY
CLAWING MY WAY BACK NAILS BLOODY AND BROKEN
MISTAKED MADE LESSONS LEARNED NONSENSE SPOKEN
DOUBT THRETENS TO OVERWHELMSTILL I STUMBLE ON
SPINE OF STEEL INSIDE THIS JELLYFISH MY WILL IS MY OWN
I WONT BREAK DOUBT AND DESPAIR SSHANT WIN
ONE OF THESE DAYS I'LL BE TIMMY AGAIN!

THIS IS RIGHT

A CHILD OF THE MOON AT HOME IN THE NIGHT
GIFTED FROM BIRTH WHY DO YOU FIGHT
DENY YOUR TRUE SELF RUN AWAY IN FRIGHT
THE GODDESS HAS BLESSED YOU WITH WORDS AND THE SIGHT
EMBRACE THE PATH DESTINY AT HAND SO DO AS YOU WILL
YET HARM NO ONE ELSE THE POWER IS REAL
SO NOW I MOVE FORWARD HEAD HELD HIGH
IT'S TIME TO STAND OTHERWISE I DIE
BLESS ME OH GODDESS AND GRANT ME YOUR LIGHT
FOR ONCE IN MY LIFE I KNOW THIS IS RIGHT
 

STOP

DAMN IT TO HELL FUCK PISS SHIT
I'M TIRED OF THIS TIME TO QUIT
STOP WHINING PINING AND CRYING
MOANING AND LAYING AROUND LIKE I'M DYING
SO LIFE'S UNFAIR YES TIS SO VERY TRUE
SO WHERE'S THE SURPRISEI MEAN ESPECIALLY FOR YOU
IT NEVER COMES EASY THERE WILL ALWAYS BE LOSS
LIFE'S JUST A RISKY GAMBLE A COIN THAT YOU TOSS
TIME TO YANK THOSE BOOTSTRAPS AND GET UP OFF MY ASS
NO TIME FOR SORROW EVEN IF YOUR HEARTBROKEN ALAS
SO PUT A SMILE ON MY FACE AND LIVE THE HAPPY LIE
LIVE IT UNTIL YOU BELIEVE IT AND IT SHALL BE BY AND BY
 

SOLITARY

SOLITARY SUCH A SAD PATHEITC WORD
APPARENTLY MY MOTTO HOW ABSOLUTLEY ABSURD
BEING ALONE ISNT NOBEL AND CERTAINLY NO FUN
IMAGINE THE SENSATION OB BEING THE ONLY ONE
WALK ALONE SLEEP ALONE DREAM ALONE
WHERE THE HELL HAS EVERYONE GONE
WHAT IS IT IN ME THAT PUSHES THEM BACK
FOR REPELLING PEOPLE I'VE GOT THE KNACK
WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME WHAT IS IT I LACK
WHERE HAVE Y'ALL GONE PLEASE PLEASE COME BACK
 

AGAIN

NOW COMES A QUESTION WHAT DO YOU FEEL
PAIN SADNESS BETRAYAL CAN THIS BE REAL
THE ANSWER AND TRUTH IS YOU LOVE ALONE
HE HAD NO HEART YOU SHOULD'VE KNOWN
HOW CAN LOVE BE MISERABLE PATHETIC AND SAD
HE'S NOT WORTH IT HAVE I GONE MAD
WEAPING AND MOANING PINING AWAY
WASTING MY TOMORROWS ON FALSE YESTERDAYS
SO I GAMBLED IT ALL LOOK WHAT I LOST
ROLLED THE DICE AND HAPPINESS WAS THE COST
IN THIS GAME OF LIFE YOU DONT ALWAYS WIN
SO HERE YOU GO LOSER LONELY AGAIN

FIRE

TO WALK THROUGH FIRE SUCH A GRAND THING
BURNING COALS OPEN A PORTAL ALLOWING SPIRITS TO SING
AND IF LOOKING WITHING A SEEKER MAY FIND
ANSWERS TO THE UNIVERSE OR THE QUESTIONS OF YOUR  MIND
USE CARE WHAT YOU LOOK FOR ANSWERS CAN BIND
CLARITY SOUGHT CLARITY GOT AND TWAS NOT TRULY KIND
WHAT A HORRID SHOCK ALL I KNEW AS REAL
DREAMS AND ILLUSIONS , DELUSIONS OH WHAT TO FEEL
I GOT WHAT I ASKED FOR NOW HERE'S THE DEAL
BRING ON THE HURT POUR ON THE PAIN
THIS STUFF IS FOR REAL

THIS SMILE

WHAT A STRANGE THING AWOKE WITH A SMILE
GOODNESS KNOWS IT'S BEEN QUITE A WHILE
PAIN IS STILL THERE BUT NOW I CAN SEE
THERE MIGHT BE HOPE EVEN FOR LIL OLE ME
STILL BEREFT AND ALONE YES TIS TRUE
YET I'LL BE OK EVEN TINGED IN BLUE
IT WAS A NICE LITTLE DREAM THAT LASTED BUT A WHILE
 NOW THROUGH THE TEARS COMES FORTH THIS BEAUTIFUL SMILE

 

THE BEAUTY IN THE DARKNESS

 

BREATHTAKING CREATURE AT HOME IN THE NIGHT
THE BEAUTY IN THE DARKNESS ECLIPSING ALL THE LIGHT
HAIR DARK AS RAVENS WINGS LIPS BLOOD RED AND FULL
VOICE OF A SIREN,CAN'T YOU FEEL THE PULL
BODY OF A GODDESS SURPASSES ALL THE REST
I'M SPEAKING OF ELVIRA ALTHOUGH I'M SURE YOU GUESSED
THE MISTRESS OF THE DARK WOMAN OF MY DREAMS
WHO ELSE COULD FILL THAT DRESS BURSTIN' AT THE SEAMS
ONLY SHE CAN ROCK THE DARKSIDE OUTPARTY ALL THE REST
SO WHEN YOU WANT A TASTE OF TERROR WHY NOT TRY THE BEST
SHE'LL USE YOU AND ABUSE YOU FOR A LITTLE FUN
ONCE YOU'VE CROSSED THE DARKSIDE YOU'LL FORGET ABOUT THE SUN

HOPE

COULD THERE BE HOPE CAN I SEE A LIGHT
SOMETRHING SHINING FAINTLY AT THE EDGE OF MY NIGHT
IT FLICKERS AND SPUTTERS REFUSING TO DIE
BANISHING MY SORRY SLOWLY BY AND BY
THOUGH I'M STILL HURT AND FELLIN RATHER GRIMM
ME-THINKS I'LL CARRY ON WITH THIS NEW WHIM
LOVES NEVER WRONG NEITHER GOOD NOR BAD A FLAME THAT IGNITES
A SPARK SHINING BRIGHTLY TO WARM THE LONG LONELY NIGHTS
IF THE HEART CHOSE WISELY WOULD THAT MAKE IT RIGHT
SO HE WON'T LOVE ME THAT DREAM BITES THE DUST
WORLDS NEVER END  I SHOULDA STUCK TO LUST
SORROW EVENTUALLY GIVES WAY SO I AM TOLD
LETS HOPE IT HAPPENS WHILE I'M STILL BOLD
 

'EVERMORE

WAS IT A GLAMOR A SLIGHT OF THE HAND
A SPELL OF LOVE OR MY SORRY FATE
EITHER WAY I'M FALLEN LOST BEREFT
WHAT ONCE BROUGHT ME JOY NOW BRING PAIN AND TEARS
FILLED WITH DESPAIR DRAGGED DOWN BY THE WEIGHT OF MY MISERY
WHAT SHOULD I DO WHERE CAN I GO
TRAPPED BY A LOVE I'M UNABLE TO SHOW
IN LOVE WITH SIR ASSHAT MASTER OF MY SOUL
HIS INDIFFERENCE SHROUDS ME IN GRIEF ANF DESPAIR
WHAT CAN YOU DO WHEN LOVE ISN'T THERE
SO I CARRY ON MUCH AS BEFORE
BROKEN HEART STILL BEATING AND ALONE 'EVERMORE

DOORMATS

DOORMATS CATCH ALL THE DIRT AND GRIME TO KEEP IT OUTSIDE
HOW MUCH EMPATHY I FEEL AS I SHAKE THE FOOTPRINTS FROM MY SPINE
NEVER SPEAK UP ALWAYS DO WHAT I CAN
WEARING MYSELF TO NOTHING I'LL STIL NEVR HAVE THAT MAN
LOVE IS BLIND AND I'M IT'S FOOL
WASTING TIME TEARS AND GRIEF ON SUCH A TOOL
SPINNING IN CIRCLES AROUND YOUR EMPTY ROOM
AS I FOLLOW YOU BLINDLY TO MY DOOM

THE WINDHORSE

RIDING WINDHORSES THROUGH THE DARK INTO THE LIGHT
AT HOME WITH ALL AS I TRAVEL INTO THE NIGHT
HOOFBEAT DRUMBEAT HEARTBEAT ONE AND THE SAME
RIDING BEASTS WILD AND FREE NO MORTAL COULD EVER TAME
THEIR THUNDER REVERBERATING THROUGH TIME AND SPACE
CARRYING ME TO A MAGICAL MYSTICAL PLACE
THESE WONDEROUS CREATURES BIRTHED OF WOOD AND HIDE
FLOATING ME ON WAVES MORE POWERFUL THAN THE TIDE
LEADING ME DOWN A PATH YET TO BE TREAD
IN THE UNDERWORLD I LAY MY BODY IN THE STARS I LAY MY HEAD
SO I RIDE THE WINDHORSE ON THE JOURNEY AS IT BEGINS
FOLLOWING THE HOOFBEATS ON A ROAD THAT NEVER ENDS

I AM WHO I AM

DOES NO ONE UNDERSTAND ME
I TRY TO DO MY VERY BEST
FOR GOOD I TAKE A STAND
NO ONE SEES THE MAN I WANT TO BE
JUST THE BOY I REALLY AM
PRIDE BIGOTRY HATRED EMOTIONS UNNEEDED
BUT ALAS TIED TO ME BY BLOOD
SHEDDING WHO I WAS BECOMING WHO IAM
CAN ANYONE POSSIBLY LOVE ME
DO I REALLY EVEN LOVE MYSELF
BLAME ALL OF LIFES WOES ON THE EXTERNAL
TO LOOK IN THE MIRROR HARDER BY FAR
IS LIFE TO BLAME FOR MY POOR CHOICES
LACK OF FEELING AND STUPIDITY
I AM WHO I AM  FOR GOOD OR BAD
TIMMYS ONE FUCKED UP MAN
