nothing

Am I better off dead?
Am I better off a quitter?
They say I’m better off now
Than I ever was with her
As they take me to my local down the street
I’m smiling but I’m dying, trying not to drag my feet

They say a few drinks
Will help me to forget her
But after one too many,
I know that I’m never
Only they can see where this is gonna end
But they all think I’m crazy but to me it’s perfect sense

And my mates are all there trying to calm me down
‘Cause I’m shouting your name all over the town
I’m swearing if I go there now
I can change your mind, turn it all around

I know that I’m drunk but I see the worst
If she’ll listen this time even though this lust
I’ll dial her number and confess to her
I’m still in love but all I heard was nothing

So I stumble there,
along the railings and the fences
I know I’m with her face to face,
that she’ll come to her senses
Every drunk stand by tend leads me to her door
If she sees how much I’m hurting, she’ll take me back for sure

And my mates are all there trying to calm me down
‘Cause I’m shouting your name all over the town
I’m swearing if I go there now
I can change your mind, turn it all around

And I know that I’m drunk but I see the worst
If she’ll listen this time even though this lust
I’ll dial her number and confess to her
I’m still in love but all I heard was nothing

She said nothing
Oh, I wanted words but all I heard was nothing
Oh, I got nothing
I got nothing
Oh, I wanted words but all I heard was nothing

Oh, sometimes love’s intoxicating
Oh, you’re coming down, your hands are shaking
When you realize there’s no one waiting

Am I better off dead?
Am I better off a quitter?
They say I’m better off now
Then I ever was with her

And my mates are all there trying to calm me down
‘Cause I’m shouting your name all over the town
I’m swearing if I go there now
I can change your mind, turn it all around

And I know that I’m drunk but I see the worst
If she’ll listen this time even though this lust
I’ll dial her number and confess to her
I’m still in love but all I heard was nothing

She said nothing
Oh, I wanted words but all I heard was nothing
Oh, I got nothing
I got nothing
Oh, I wanted words but all I heard was nothing

Oh, I got nothing
I got nothing
I got nothing
I got nothing

knee deep

Sunday, July 24th, 2011

Gonna put the the world away for a minute
Pretend I don’t live in it
Sunshine gonna wash my blues away

Had sweet love but I lost it
She got too close so I fought her
Now I’m lost in the world trying to find me a better way

Wishing I was knee deep in the water somewhere
Got the blue sky breeze and it don’t seem fair
Only worry in the world: is the tide gonna reach my chair?
Sunrise, there’s a fire in the sky
Never been so happy,
Never felt so high
And I think I might have found me my own kind of paradise

Wrote a note, said be back in a minute
Bought a boat and I sailed off in it
Don’t think anybody gonna miss me anyway

Mind on a permanent vacation
The ocean is my only medication
Wishing my condition ain’t ever gonna go away

Cause now I’m knee deep in the water somewhere
Got the blue sky breeze blowing wind through my hair
Only worry in the world: is the tide gonna reach my chair?
Sunrise, there’s a fire in the sky
Never been so happy, never felt so high
And I think I might have found me my own kind of paradise

This champagne shore washing over me
It’s a sweet, sweet life living by the salty sea
One day you could be as lost as me
Change your geography
And maybe you might be

Knee deep in the water somewhere
Got the blue sky breeze blowing wind through my hair
Only worry in the world: is the tide gonna reach my chair?
Sunrise, there’s a fire in the sky
Never been so happy, never felt so high
And I think I might have found me my own kind of paradise

Come on in the water it’s nice
Find yourself a little slice
Grab a backpack of lites
You never know until you try
When you lose yourself
You find the key to paradise

tired of waiting

Wednesday, July 20th, 2011

I am wired and fading,
Looking blind and blaming
Following and trailing
Words you might be saying

I am tired of waiting
I’m tired of waiting
I am tired

Altered expectations,
Long anticipation
Everything is changing,
I’m the same and aging
I’m tired of waiting

I am tired of waiting
I’m tired of waiting
I am tired

I’m tired of waiting
I am tired of waiting
I’m tired of waiting
I am tired

Of the long way down
The long way down
The long way down
The long way down

So I stand to let you down here alone
I can’t seem to dream of you no more, no more, no more

I am tired of waiting
I’m tired of waiting
I am tired
I’m just tired of waiting

I am tired of waiting
I’m tired of waiting
I am tired

I’m tired of waiting
I am tired of waiting
I’m tired of waiting
I am tired

I’m so tired, I’m so tired, I’m so tired, so tired
I am tired of waiting
I’m tired of waiting
I am tired

I’m so tired, I’m so tired, I’m so tired, so tired
I am tired of waiting
I am tired of waiting
I am tired of waiting
I am tired of waiting
I am tired of waiting
