I Need You

The first time that i saw you, you looked me in the eye
I felt it right down to my bones, I thought that I'd just die.
Next thing you knew, you had me by the hand, leading me straight into what looked like promised land.
I messed it up, I was a fool, was filled with black regret,
for throwing you love away but never did forget
the way you made me feel
it's what you do to me
I'll never know or understand
but everybody sees....
I need you/ to be mine/ all the time
I swear that I'll be good to you, I promise I'll be true,
everything I have, I'll give to you
I love you more than life itself, hope you understand.
Couldn't be without you, you're meant to be my man.
Everything was out of joint and nothing seemed to fit,
life was a mess without you, dark and desperate.
I need you/ to be mine/ all the time
I swear that I'll be good to you, I promise I'll be true,
everything I have, I'll give to you
Don't ever leave me, don't ever make me sad.
Wasn't perfect in the past, I was just bad.
I made you cry, gave you pain, hurt you and it showed,
I'll spend the rest of my days to show you so you'll know....
I need you....

Intentional Combustion
02:57
|
|||
|
Insult and injury's enough, my fuse is short and it's getting dire.
I've been soaked with gasoline and it's raining fire.
I'm finished with your hand me down swagger, now I'm taking my own side.
It doesn't matter, whatever, let it all slide.
If you don't want what you have you'll never have what you want.
All you have is all you got.
The grass ain't greener on the other side,
It doesn't matter, whatever, let it all slide.
Push it out of my head, ignore all the things long gone and dead.
Do i stand to represent what I had failed before, is it done, is it over, is there something more?
Nonsense and a waste of emotion, throw that bottle back into the ocean.
And just let it all slide.

Nobody's Angel

Angel from the very first can't do no wrong,
all the while steering you along.
Whose angel do I get to be? Who will love me unconditionally?
Nobody's angel, nobody's child.
When you put your arms around me, hold me long and tight
it goes away, I'm safe again and it's alright.
I'd like to be your angel, try being first
don't feel the love just feel alone.
When you put your arms around me, hold me long and tight
it goes away, I'm safe again and it's alright.
Not the first, not the best, don't have what it takes to pass the test.
Nobody's angel can do it on her own.
Figure it out and find our homes, still angels at the end of the day
Nobody's angel is somebody's soul

Overthrone
07:49
|

|
Scratch and fight all day and night
Anger down around you like a caul.
Complain for the heat and for the rain,
Is that face in the mirror you, or someone else?
Less than meets the eye, take one step back,
turn around and run, there's nothing there at all.
Never see into the space behind your eyes,
not surprised, it's empty.
Standing here beside yourself, don't recognize at all.
A victim, or like the king of hearts?
High up in a tower, with a knife in your own skull,
does it matter what you do now?
.......
Don't know who's there, is it you or someone else
who will answer when I come knocking round?
High up in a tower, with a knife in your own skull,
does it matter what you do now?

Track 12
03:26
|
|||
|
Watching the rain slide down the window of the dingy Amtrak
riding along and wishing I was never coming back.
Different things are important to us then, just the same as they are now,
made up my mind to run away, just figuring out how.
Coming up out through the haze, got to get up and go.
Standing my ground, stronger now, I have seen enough to know.
Let me intuition take me as I ride off on that train.
Changing the future, one night, riding in the rain.
Swaying on down listening to to the tracks, waiting on this train to take me home, I am never coming back.
I let my intuition take me as I ride off on that train,
changing the future, one night, riding in the rain.

Medicine
03:25
|
|||
|
Sometimes, only sometimes the light inside burns bright.
It's hard to know what another alone can never tell.
The hand we play, what we're dealt, where do i begin?
There's no knowledge like experience, no others' shoes we're in.
So I'll give you a blues farewell, and the best kind of second chance.
Conjure something for goodbye and save it for your head.
Rhythm like any other no soul could ever hear.
Have you loved, felt another past arm's length, or turn away from the magic?
There's no joy in captivity, blackbirds in the dead of night are meant to sing with their borrowed wings before they run off taking flight.
So I'll give you a blues farewell, and the best kind of second chance.
Conjure something for goodbye and save it for your head.
Sweet memory, immortality, I listen every day.
It's medicine for your head, perfect company.
