Love After Me

I thought I knew this long before
until you came on knocking at my door
You taught me what was real and what was fake
and all the different sounds that we could make.
Oh, is it love that's coming after me?
To mold me to the man I'm supposed to be?
And all my life, I've been looking for you too
Oh, is it love that's coming after me?
Take away the poison from my blood
and help me clean myself from all the mud.
Tell me what is real and what is fake
and all the different sounds that we could make.
Oh, is it love chasing after me
it gives me air to breathe from deep within your lungs.
Justify my claim, and let's begin the game
that ends with us beneath the ground.

Definite State of Mind

Where will you go now that you are done?
Are you happy? Now you have won.
Just remember where you came from.
At long last, the time has come.
But I need you, I miss you, I could never walk again
But don't forget me, still love me, this is where forever will begin.
Don't think that you'll be leaving us all behind.
You'll go on with a definite state of mind
Where will you go, what will you find
given the time it takes to unwind
Don't look behind, be on your way, I wish you well.
There's answer for every reason
Just don't wait til the changing seasons
Here's your compass, here's your ruler
the future lies in your computer.

The Underdog

Have you ever wanted someone to believe in you?
Have you ever wanted something just to hold onto
when everything is wrong?
Have you ever wanted to be the one to stand up and say
I'm not afraid anymore?
Have you ever wanted to say the things they don't want to say
and be the one to be king?
Well it's not easy being the underdog
so you got to take advantage of the obstacles that lie ahead of you
And you will get there when the time is right
and you've given all your all to get through
This is the time for a start, before it all falls apart
don't worry what they will say, just go for what's in your heart
And every day you will see, you're where you're suppose to be
now just hold on tight now Love, we're coming home
Have you ever wanted something that was far away?
Have you ever wanted something just to give you strength
to stand up and say
Well I'm not gonna take this anymore
don't stop me walking out the door
I'm gonna go my own way, don't care what you're gonna say
this is what I stand for.
I'm just so tired of being last
I'm just gonna go run from the past.
Take every opportunity, take all that comes to me,
rising to the top.

Punk Music

I'm sitting here in the city lights
with my pink highlighter and a cup of joe
And with the time I have right now
I'd like to write down what I have to say.
The days when you catch my eye
with your bible in hand and your charming wit
Your heart warming voice and laugh
and a spirit that says you'll never quit.
I feel like this could be something
I'm here, don't leave me with nothing.
I don't want to cower in fear, I don't feel like going home
if God would let me have you, that be all I'd ever ask of him again
Your always in my head and heart
you have me singing songs to you
I'll come by work to bring you dinner
I don't have to, but it's what I want to do
Let's listen to punk music
and talk about when we get to heaven
how we'll never feel such pain
and we'll never be alone again
I'm not afraid to be brave, I'm not afraid to be a man
I'm not afraid to let you know
I'm sitting here in the city lights
with my pink highlighter and a cup of joe
and with the time I have right now
that's what I wanted you to hear me say.

Downtown

Mother, sit with me, I've gotta tell you everything that's going in my mind.
This place was good to me, but if I don't get out I'll surly feel I'm left behind.
When I feel like I've had enough of everything, will you be there for me?
I'm gonna find me a way downtown
where all the ones went to claim their crowns
and all the jokers are summoned
to lift us from the dirt
I know you're worried now, and you fear for my ability for stability in this world.
There's nothing left for me, I need to do this for myself before I fall too far behind.
