NOW I KNOW YOU AIN’T SITTIN’ THERE
WE ‘BOUT TO BREAK IT DOWN NOW
Hey!
Someone’s knocking
Won’t you answer?
They’ve been waiting for you
You been stuck there
For a while now
You don’t know what to do
I hate to be the bearer of bad news
But you got a storm coming through
Run out the back door
And don’t look back now
Or they might find you
Running wild, undefined
Living like tomorrow’s dying
I won’t bide by your tide
You keep yours and I’ll make mine
Ducking fires, getting dire
I won’t be as you designed
I won’t be another tooth to your smile
I’ve been knocking
But you won’t answer
You can’t forget about me
You’ll be stuck there
For a while if
You think you’ll never get free
I hate to be the bearer of bad news
But you got a case of the blues
Now you may run
And you may hide
But you’ll never escape the truth
Running wild, undefined
Living like tomorrow’s dying
I won’t bide by your tide
You keep yours and I’ll make mine
Ducking fires, getting dire
I won’t be as you designed
I won’t be another tooth to your smile
Doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo
You keep running
But you can’t run from your past
Or you, sir, you’ll run out of time
Time is ticking by so fast
Look out there
You’re being left behind
So make sure these good times last
Running wild, undefined
Living like tomorrow’s dying
I won’t bide by your tide
You keep yours and I’ll make mine
Ducking fires, getting dire
I won’t be as you designed
I won’t be another tooth to your smile
Running wild (running wild)
Running wild (running wild)
Running wild (running wild)
Running wild
Oh yeah, it’s Salt Rock baby!

Another Depressing Song
04:37
|

I lost my heart a while ago
I don’t know where I last put it down
Well, I guess that’s just what happens
When you keep on handing it around
When you’re divided paper-thin
There’s not much left that you can do
I promise I’m not mean-spirited
I don’t want to be misconstrued
And so I write
And pray I might
Get something out of this
Even though I shine
My wayward light
It won’t reach the bottom of this abyss
It’s just another depressing song
It’s just another depressing song
I wanna give love to everyone
But everyone is so far away
I don’t even care if they hate my guts
I just want my peace on display
But I’m scared that I get so bitter now
My warmth will be mistaken for fumes
And everyone will dissipate the space
And wait for the smoke to clear the room
And so I write
And pray I might
Get something out of this
Even though I shine
My wayward light
It won’t reach the bottom of this abyss
It’s just another depressing song
When you have done all you can do
Go write another depressing song
When no one knows what you’ve been through
“How original! A sad song in a minor key!
I bet that one, it took you three weeks!
Why get inspiration from someone that you love
Like your partner or your family?”
Well, call me a masochist then.
And so I write
And pray I might
Get something out of this
Even though I shine
My wayward light
It won’t reach the bottom of this abyss
It’s just another depressing song
When you have done all you can do
Go write another depressing song
When no one knows what you’ve been through

Every Little Thing

Every little thing
Every little thing that I try
Seems to fall apart somehow
And every little tear
Every single tear that I cry
Falls a little harder now
Ahh (Ahh, ahh)
Ahh (Ahh, ahh)
I'll pick myself up
And wipe away the tears
After all the years
It doesn’t get any easier
I wish you were here
I could feel your embrace
And see your face
And say I’m right here
Every little thing
Every little thing that I try
Seems to fall apart somehow
And every little tear
Every single tear that I cry
Falls a little harder now
Ahh (Ahh, ahh)
Ahh (Ahh, ahh)
I'll pick myself up
And wipe away the tears
After all these years
It doesn’t get any easier
And I wish you were here
I could feel your embrace
And see your face
And say I’m right here
Oh, and I'll pick myself up
And wipe away the tears
After all these years
It doesn’t get any easier
I wish you were here
So I could feel your embrace
And see your face
And say I’m right here
Every little thing
Every little thing that I try
Seems to fall apart somehow
And every little tear
Every single tear that I cry
Falls a little harder now

Is It Happening???
04:47

I pick myself up
And dust myself off
I lost my way through the harrowing lights
Chameleon tongues
Tell me what I want
I don't wanna know what happened last night
Feels good to be free in the mouth of
Someone else's greater animosity
So I don't conceive of another
Disaster that's waiting to be
'Cause in the end
Who are we
But empty cells
Transforming
My God, is it happening
My world is unraveling
I can't afford to be who I was last night
Don't ever wanna see that man passing by
My God, is it happening
I'll pick my story up
From where I left off
The harem of horrors came to my sight
Chameleons, please
Make me of your own
I beg of you understand my plight
But it's hard to contextualize what you
Never ever had to quite explain in words
But it's even more so when you just
Always considered the worst
'Cause in the end
Who are we
But empty cells
Transforming
My God, is it happening
My world is unraveling
I can't afford to be who I was last night
Don't ever wanna see that man passing by
My God, is it happening
So what are you gonna do
When you don't know who you can be anymore
Someday you'll lose it all
And realize there's nothing inside your core
So what are you gonna do
When you don't know who you can be anymore
Someday you'll lose it all
And realize there's nothing inside your core
My God, is it happening
My God, is it happening
My God, is it happening
My world is unraveling
I can't afford to be who I was last night
Don't ever wanna see that man passing by
My God, is it happening
Is it happening
Is it happening
Is it happening
Is it happening

Another Love Song
04:38

You are a lady, but you’re not dressed in red
I could have stayed home, but I chose you instead
I came to you in a state of great pain
Guess I’d rather stay dry than stand in the rain
You make me happy; you’re a wonderful friend
And when we go out, I hate when it ends
Yet I still feel like I’m making a mistake
By giving back to you less than I take
Winds from the storms in my heart
Have thrown me at your feet
Wish I could write another love song
Something more upbeat
I thought if I just kissed you
It would be alright
But since I kissed you
It’s been hard to sleep at night
My friends they ask me, just what I see in you
I have to tell them I just need something new
Is this the price for my confidence?
And was holding you worth the consequence?
It’s time to part ways; I tell you goodbye
Have you been reading the words in my sighs?
I do not regret the time that we shared
But will our friendship ever be repaired?
Winds from the storms in my heart
Have thrown me at your feet
Wish I could write another love song
Something more upbeat
I thought if I just kissed you
It would be alright
But since I kissed you
It’s been hard to sleep at night
