Waitin' For The Wind

Lonely is the night
Now that darkness has fallin'
Nothing seems right
And the world is callin'

Everybody's looking back
As the wind comes whispering by
The're waitin' for the answers then
Like the time they heard a cry

Hang on
Don't ever go
Life's here
I know

Wind called on me
How it took me by surprise
Cause night come upon me
Creeping through the distant skies

Wind tell me what you can
'Bout the life - what I came from
A breeze blew and whispered then
In a voice rich as the sun

Hang on
Don't ever go
Life's here
I know

Feelin' Bad 

You seek to grow a happy face 
But ya' need someone for sure 
To fill tomorrow's empty space 
That hides behind your door 
Oh yeah... 

I'll bring anything you want 
You know I'm here to guide you 
But change your day from bad to good 
Hide the tears inside you 
Oh yeah...

Better times they got to come 
Feelin' bad - make it good 
I'll show you how I think you should be feelin' now 

How you feelin' now it's all around 
No one knows but you 
The way it's been you just can't win 
There's nothing you can do 
You're runnin' wild, a helpless child 
Through them fools that guide ya' 
A time to think is what you need 
Wake up the time beside ya' 
Oh yeah

Feelin' bad - make it good 
I'll show you how I think you should be feelin' now
Better times they got to come 

Feelin' bad - make it good

I've Got Enough Heartaches

Flying high out on a limb we'll be
We've got more than we could ever see

But to keep it is harder than anything else
I love ya , let me tell ya, we can grow never melt
That's why I say
I've got enough heartache
Tell me what you see when you look at me yeah
We've got a good thing let's not lose it
Is it right, is it wrong when you say you won't be long
I've got enough, I've got enough heartache


Sitting here wanting you by my side
Should I run away no I'm afraid to hide

Lonely like the cross on the other side of the street
I'm mixed up not messed up a straw in a field of wheat
Just tell me what you see when you look at me yeah
We've got a good thing let's not lose it
Is it right, is it wrong when you say you won't be long
I've got enough, I've got enough heartache
Tell me what you see when you look at me yeah
We've got a good thing let's not lose it
Is it right, is it wrong when you say you won't be long
I've got enough, I've got enough heartache

Lost In My Dream

It was a strange dream
It took my heart from me
And though it did seem
To end my misery
I could still see where
My life was headin' for
A voice cried beware
Your fate's behind the door 

And now I'm still lost
In my dream of fear
It's the end for me
Somewhere in the frost
On the seam of my mind
Waits my destiny
Don't think I've gone there today 

It was a strange dream
The dark eye stead to me
They had a deep clean
Reflecting fantasy
Then out of nowhere
There came a voice to me
It said this nightmare
Will be reality

And now I'm still lost
In my dream of fear
It's the end for me
Somewhere in the frost
On the seam of my mind
Waits my destiny 

Don't think of gone love again 

Gotta' find a way home somehow 

Lost in infinite sleep somewhere

That Was Only Yesterday

Guess I'll have to get out of this town 
No sense in my waiting around 
Only thing left for me here is pain 
She's gone for sure now why pretend 
Left last night with a friend 
Leaving not a word that would explain 

That was only yesterday 
But will I ever face tomorrow 
She took away what I'd had 
And returned it full of sorrow 

That was only yesterday 
Will I ever face tomorrow 
She took away what I'd had 
And returned it full of sorrow 

I think I better find somewhere 
A place where I won't care 
I need some time to hide my shame 
Was only just one day ago 
Found what I'd been searching for 
Had left town on a late night train 

And that was only yesterday 
But will I ever face tomorrow 
She took away what I'd had 
And returned it full of sorrow 

That was only yesterday 
Will I ever face tomorrow 
She took away what I'd had 
And returned it full of sorrow 
That was only yesterday 
Will I ever face tomorrow 
She took away what I'd had 
And returned it full of sorrow

Better By You, Better Than Me

You can find a way to be my passion 
You listen to the blood flowin' in my vein 
You hear the teaching of the wind 
Tell her what I'm like within 
I can't find the words my mind is dim 
It's better by you better than me 

Guess you'll have to tell her how I tried 
To speak the thoughts of hell so long inside 
Tell her now I've got to go 
Fight in the streets and guide the sword  
Tell her the world's not much fallin' for 
It's better by you better than me 

It's better by you better than me 
You can tell her what I want it to be 
You can say what I only can see 
It's better by you better than me 

Guess I'll have to change my way of livin' 
Only really know the way I've been  
Guess I'll lean to fight and kill 
Tell her not to wait until 
Finds my blood upon her window sill 
It's better by you better than me 

It's better by you better than me 
You can tell her what I want it to be 
You can say what I only can see 
It's better by you better than me 
It's better by you better than me 
You can say what I can see 
You can tell her what I want it to be 
It's better by you better than me 
It's better by you 
You know better than me 
Yeah you can say what I only can see

Hangman Hang My Shell On A Tree

Someone said he who knows he knows, knows nothing yeah 
He who knows he knows nothing really knows 
But I have searched and I never could find 
A way to make my true self unwind 
And while I sit here waiting to die 
I can see what I am, can tell you why 

The time's got ahead, can't you see 
Cause my life's running out, out on me 
I forgotten how it was, meant to be 
So hangman hang my shell, on a tree 

It's all so easy like the time, when I first learned yeah 
It's all the same since the day, the world first turned yeah 
But I never tried to listen or wait 
But now it's so clear but for me it's too late. 
So I sit here trying not to cry 
I only wanted peace, and now I must die 

The time's got ahead, can't you see 
Cause my life's running out, out on me 
I forgotten how it was, meant to be 
So hangman hang my shell, on a tree
