mixtape

Friday, December 7th, 2007

You say hello, inside I’m screaming “I love you”
You say goodnight, in my mind
I’m sleeping next to you.
You drive away from my car crash of a heart
And I don’t know…

But you gave me the best mixtape I have
And even all the bad songs ain’t so bad
I just wish there was so much more than that
About me and you

You talk to him, and it burns me like the sun
You talk to her, you that say that you feel
Like he’s the one
I talk to me, but you can’t hear the pain I feel
And you don’t know..

‘Cause you gave me the best mixtape I have
And even all the sad songs ain’t so sad
I only wish that there was more than that
About me and you
About me and you

Oh, don’t turn around and say bye again
Yeah it crushes my head when you call me your friend
And I’m not the same person from back in the day
in the back of the class that you thought was gay
No I can’t find the words
‘Cause I lost them the minute
They fell out my mouth
And it’s love and I’m in it,
So give me your lips
And just let me kiss ’em
And let’s get messed up and listen to

Probably the best mixtape I have
And even all the bad songs ain’t so bad
Just wish there was so much more than that
About me and you
About me and you
About me and you
About me and you
About me and you
About me and you

keeping the faith

Wednesday, December 5th, 2007

If it seems like I’ve been lost
In ‘let’s remember’
If you think I’m feeling older
And missing my younger days
Oh, then you should have known
Me much better
Cause my past is something that never
Got in my way
Oh no

Still I would not be here now
If I never had the hunger
And I’m not ashamed to say
The wild boys were my friends
Oh
Cause I never felt the desire
‘Til their music set me on fire
And then I was saved, yeah
That’s why I’m keeping the faith
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Keeping the faith

We wore matador boots
Only Flagg Brothers had them with the Cuban heel
Iridescent socks with the same color shirt
And a tight pair of chinos
Oh
I put on my shark skin jacket
You know the kind with the velvet collar
And ditty-bop shades
Oh yeah
I took a fresh pack of Luckies
And a mint called Sen-Sen
My old man’s Trojans
And his Old Spice after shave
Oh
Combed my hair in a pompadour
Like the rest of the Romeos wore
A permanent wave
Yeah
We were keeping the faith
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Keeping the faith

You can get just so much
From a good thing
You can linger too long
In your dreams
Say goodbye to the
Oldies but goodies
Cause the good ole days weren’t always good
And tomorrow ain’t as bad as it seems

Learned stickball as a formal education
Lost a lot of fights
But it taught me how to lose O.K.
Oh
I heard about sex
But not enough
I found you could dance
And still look tough anyway
Oh yes I did
I found out a man ain’t just being macho
Ate an awful lot of late night drive-in food
Drank a lot of take-home pay
I thought I was the Duke of Earl
When I made it with a red-haired girl
In the Chevrolet
Oh yeah
We were keeping the faith
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Keeping the faith

You know the good ole days weren’t
Always good
And tomorrow ain’t as bad as it seems

Now I told you my reasons
For the whole revival
Now I’m going outside to have
An ice cold beer in the shade
Oh
I’m going to listen to my 45’s
Ain’t it wonderful to be alive
When the rock ‘n’ roll plays?
Yeah
When the memory stays
Yeah
I’m keeping the faith
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Keeping the faith

I’m keeping the faith
Yes I am
You know I’m keeping the faith
Oh yes I am
I’m keeping the faith
Yes I am
I’m keeping the faith
Oh yeah

somebody help me

Monday, November 5th, 2007

Somebody help me
I’m being haunted by a whisper
A chill comes over me
I’m being trapped inside this moment
I’m not a victim, I’m not a freak

Free me, before I slip away
Heal me, wake me from this day
Can somebody help me?

I’ve seen the face of my affliction, of my reality
I’m being tortured by the future, of things that yet to be
I’m being haunted by a vision
It’s like the morning never comes
I feel the burden of confusion
Always searching, on the run

Free me, before I slip away
Heal me, wake me from this day
Can somebody help me?
Somebody help me?

Now I’m not a hero, no
But the weight on my world’s on my soul
These images burn in my eyes
They’re burning me up inside

Free me, before I slip away
Heal me, wake me from this day
Can somebody help me?

Free me, before I slip away
Heal me, wake me from this day
Can somebody help me?
Somebody help me
Somebody help me
