Me Time

watch you walking out the door
and i don't know what it's for, oh no, oh no, i don't know
any way you want it, that's the way you'll get it, any way you want it, that's the way you'll get it
i don't wanna be there when you cry it's not my fault that you're uptight
i'm done thinking about you
you're done thinking about me, i think, i don't, i don't know
any way you want it, that's the way you'll get it, any way you want it, that's the way you'll get it
i don't wanna be there when you cry it's not my fault that you're uptight
you know, i've been thinking about everything you've been saying recently and i just don't seem to agree with any of it, you always walk into my room like "will c'mon it's time to get dressed" and i'm just sitting there, i'm clearly not ready for the day.
can't you just see that i'm trying to relax? a guy needs to be free like a bird above the sea, like a monkey in a tree
a guy just needs some time for himself, you know what he needs? ME TIME!
any way you want it, that's the way you'll get it, any way you want it, that's the way you'll get it
i don't wanna be there when you cry it's not my fault that you're uptight
it's not my fault that you're uptight! it's not my fault, man!

Beginnings
How are you my dear
What’s been going on with ya
Nothin much it seems
Short on money but lots of dreams
You’ve been lost and found
I could show you around
I think you’ll like it here
The sky is blue and the water’s clear
Hope you plan to stay
New beginnings aren’t far away
Anything can change
People shuffle they rearrange
Hey I’ve got to go
We’ll talk later I’ll let you know
I’m so glad you’re here
Always keep you near
Hope you turn out alright
Find out some other night

Weight of the World

no one gets in the way of the things that i love, you will discover it's too late, you can't escape from the weight of the world, you're nobody's girl
it's not my fault that you can't see what's right there waiting for you,
so don't complain when you come running back, it's just a matter of time until i will make you mine
people don't understand that it's not in their hands, no better man could control me, i wish i carried the weight of the world, you're nobody's girl
it's not my fault that you can't see what's right there waiting for you,
so don't complain when you come running back, it's just a matter of time until i will make you mine

Gold

As time unfolds around us we can’t stop its pull.
And life’s temptations blind us, start to take their toll.
So I start growing weary because being young gets old.
And you can’t help but wonder what life has in store.
You can’t tell if you’re finished, can’t tell if you’re done.
You’re way past tired because you don’t sleep once you’ve gone numb.
So you’ll start growing weary and hate that you’re still young.
You know it’ll soon be over but wonder just how long.
Forget the rest just let it go.
Take it easy take it slow.
Because all that glitters isn’t gold.
And soon enough you'll know for sure.

What a Shame
03:48
|

Conviction fades with memory
An empty frame
What a Shame
Stories that you told
All end the same
What a shame
Remember how it felt to smile
Just a dream
A fantasy for a while
I’ll be fine just
Give it time
This ain’t all I got
This ain’t all I want
Validation’s hard to find
Seek it out
Don’t know why
And when it all goes right
Run away
Cause it’s too much
Remember how it felt to smile
Just a dream
A fantasy for a while
I’ll be fine just
Give it time
This ain’t all I got
This ain’t all I want

Wednesday morning at five o'clock
As the day begins
Silently closing her bedroom door
Leaving the note that she hoped would say more
She goes downstairs to the kitchen
Clutching her handkerchief
Quietly turning the backdoor key
Stepping outside, she is free
She...(we gave her most of our lives)
Is leaving (sacrified most of our lives)
Home (we gave her everything money could buy)
She's leaving home, after living alone, for so many years (bye bye)
Father snores as his wife gets into her dressing gown
Picks up the letter that's lying there
Standing alone at the top of the stairs
She breaks down and cries to her husband
"Daddy, our baby's gone.
"Why would she treat us so thoughtlessly?
How could she do this to me?"
She...(we never thought of ourselves)
Is leaving (never a thought for ourselves)
Home (we struggled hard all our lives to get by)
She's leaving home, after living alone, for so many years
Friday morning, at nine o'clock
She is far away
Waiting to keep the appointment she made
Meeting a man from the Motortrade
She (what did we do that was wrong)
Is Having (we didn't know it was wrong)
Fun (fun is the one thing that money can't buy)
Something inside, that was always denied, for so many years...
She's leaving home...bye, bye.
