Swerving To You
Wherever I go / Whomever I run to / its never gonna be the same
Whatever I do / Whatever I become / its never gonna be the same
Without you without you
Whoever I find / Whatever I decide to do / its never gonna be the same
Whomever I follow / though shallow and hollow / its never gonna be the same
Without you without you
With every hour that's slipping away
The truth is I'll never get to see you again
But given the chance, if one chance I get
I'll do the things / That you'll never forget
With every hour that's slipping away
The truth is I'll probably never see you again
But I promise you this / If you give me my due
At the end of the day you'll find me swerving to you
Tick for tact / you know I'm better than that
You wont find me hiding in the corner with my head in the sand
If green is go / lets get this show on the road
But somehow I just don't think you want me here anymore

Something New
Frozen in time with this cold state of mind
I try to escape / but no one appears to show me the way
This fog in my wine / taste like you over time
Its cause for debate / the argument sways / time for a change / lets go for a change
There's no rhyme or reason why these feelings always take control
Be it right or just treason cause sometimes I think I'm safer on my own
I'm not settling down / no / not thinking about putting down some roots
Just looking around / maybe find me something new
Not a day goes by when something new catches my eye
The work now begins / the blood in my veins start to heat up again
But never never never will it give cause to commit
Oh never never never will I ever admit / its done
It soon starts to unravel / my feet hit the gravel / cause its no longer fun

Illuminate My Sky
Wont you just hold me
Wont you just come and settle me down
I need you beside me
To calm these waters before I drown
I want you to see me
See me for what I really am
Not this disappearing act
Disguised as a man
I'll wrap my arms around the way you love me
And never lose this grip I have on you
I'll take each day and revel in your thunder and patiently wait for your
Lightning to illuminate my sky
I'll wrap my arms around the way you love me
And never lose this grip I have on you
I'll take each day and revel in your thunder and patiently wait for your
Lightning to illuminate my sky

Criminal
We wait / then we take / We build / then we break
Some will wait a lifetime for what some find in a day
We rush / to commence / then we rush / to dispense
Of the baggage we accumulate / it sometimes don't make sense
Some may think that we are criminal
But they can't tell just what were up to
We take cover in the thought that maybe we are not what
they think of us
We might be dancing in the moonlight
Might be fighting for our dear lives
But they’ll never know what becomes of us
Yes you /were the difference / yes you, you were the cause
You changed my whole perspective on what life is all about
On and on and on we run to / what we think we want we run to
On and on and on we try to hold / the feelings that we want to run to
On and on and on I'll run to you / is who I want to run to
On and on and on / I'll run to you
We aim / to survive/ we aim to get by
But behind every promise / waits a demon in disguise

Lets Ride
I know sometimes it hurts
Think twice on what to do
You simmer in the consequence
If its right or wrong for you
Out in the sun / Leaving shadows for anyone / Who can appreciate the fun
Now I'm not saying its better than being in love
Or as painful as being dumped
But I swear at times when you feel that rush
Its a feeling that wont get trumped
Out in the sun / Leaving shadows for anyone / Who can appreciate the fun
Lets ride
Forget about whats wrong
And concentrate on the little things in life that turn you on
And just ride
Put some miles on those wheels
Slowly watch how good it feels
You'll be glad you came along
So lets ride

Moments
Sometimes your beauty overwhelms me
I like feeling the warmth within your glow
I stumble about when your not with me
Just a ripple of static in your soul
Sometimes my actions don't amuse you
You turn a deaf ear to my songs
I'm not surprised by your behavior
I'm getting accustomed to it all
Oh the moments when your near
I rarely contain myself
But this tranquil heart goes crazy
When you disappear
You know your beauty overwhelms me
In spite of the way you make me feel
Who knows someday you'll understand me
Someday your love might be for real

Only You

Only You
I just can't imagine a day of me being without you
Alone beneath the stars always wondering where you are
I just can't fathom the thought of me not thinking about you
Another glass of wine wont erase those images of you in my mind
So careless of me to think that its not real
When in fact every time that I open my eyes its you I see and feel
Hold me close / save me from myself
Only you can make a difference
Contrary to what you believe is true
Its only you that makes a difference in me
I just cant imagine a world with you not hanging beside me
This table's meant for two / just wouldn’t be the same without you
It scares me to think that fate would not have lead me to find you
But luck became my friend / a story I hope that never ends
Hope is just a dream that with you comes to life
Every time

I O U

I O U
Brother can you tell that I've lost everything its true
Events spared no expense it affected my livelihood its true
You struggle just to have your own existence
But existence wasn’t happening for you know who
So I'll take what you got
And hand you this I O U
Baby with some patience I'll supply you with what you need
But lately what you need exceeds any possibilities
I know that its this chemical resistance
Obviously not working out for me and you
So I'll take this opportunity to hand you this I O U
You give your heart to someone who believes you
But love can sometimes never be enough
So I'll take what's available
And exchange it with this I O U
Each and every morning greets a new day as its passing thru
Before you start to realize what's happening the year is threw
You struggle just to fight for your existence
But existence doesn't wait for either me or you
So just take what is giving
And write yourself an I O U

You Gave Me Away

Gave Me Away
With blood shot eyes on a winters night
Felt the curse of never-lasting love
Shot after shot I tried to drink you away
But still the hurt left stains that will always remain
You gave me away / You showed me what for
Gave me away / Gave me away
You showed no remorse as you shattered my hope
You gave me away / gave me away
On any given nite you can lose your thoughts
Find yourself in chains / find yourself in a box
I was starving for you but all I got were crumbs
You gave me away when you scattered my hear
Behind the hurt or beneath the glare
You can stop and stare but you wont find me there
You gave me away

Letting Go
I'm tired of this place / it shrivels up my skin
Time for letting go / Where do I begin
Not easy to ignore / These rumblings in my heart
Cause every inch of space / Lies within these prison walls
Tell me where do I begin / Where do I begin
Its been years / since I felt your warm embrace
Its been years / That I've struggled in this place
The signs are there / Look there written everywhere
In the clouds in the sky / Where the sun never shines
Where the rain always falls / Like tears from your eyes
Every grain in the sand / As it flows thru your hands
Or the way that it feels / When cold rips you in half
Time and again its not hard to explain
The reasons we are all feeling this way
Steady hands / Brings happy minds
You dream out-loud and hope they take you far
Hold those thoughts and don't let go
Let them take you where you really want to go
I'm tired of this place / its not where I want to be
I look the other way / Can't chase the misery
Not easy to ignore / These rumblings in my heart
Tell me where to go / Show me where to start
