That’s Just Me

 

When you don’t think you can handle the pain

When you open the door to the rain

When it feels too cold to go outside

Stand and hold your head up high

Don’t hide by yourself all alone

 

And if you don’t prefer the road you’re traveling on

Turn around and you’ll be gone

 

You get one life to figure out what you got

There’s no try there’s only do or do not

When there is no point of compromise

How long till you realize

Life’s too short to throw it away

 

But that’s just me

But that’s just me

 

What’s the point going out on the road

If it only bleeds your heart and your soul

There are more important things than gold

Truth can not be bought or sold

Find a way to be who you are

 

Did you reach your destination

Or did you brake down by the side of the road

 

(Chorus)

 

But that’s just me

But that’s just me

 

If you know who you are in the morning

Then you’ll know who you are when you sleep

Trust your mind will recognize

Separate the truth and lies

Be yourself or live in disguise

 

And if you don’t accept the world you’re living in

The key to change is to begin

 

(Chorus) x 2

 

But that’s just me x 4

 

 

 

Not Myself

 

Rise and shine

Get out of bed but I can’t seem to raise my head

The light outside

breaks through the blinds

casts a shadow what’s the time

My darkened mind

I’m not myself today

 

Well I woke up feeling lonely and I woke up feeling blue

Went looking for a reason and I took it out on you

I wipe my eyes

I’m not myself today

 

I don’t know what to say

I’m not myself today

I don’t know what to say

I’m not myself today

 

Stepped out through the front door and starring back at me

The kind of day you dream about

Not a cloud to see

Sunshine, beauty

But I’m not myself today

The world was turning toward me

but I felt it slipping by

The solitary prison of the feeling in my mind

I’ll be fine

I’m just not myself today

 

I don’t know what to say

I’m not myself today x 3

 

Been down this road a million times

I guess it’s one more hill to climb

The darkness of the night surrenders to the morning light

I’m alright

I’m just not myself today

 

I don’t know what to say

I’m not myself today x 4

 

 

 

 

Living The Dream

 

Life in the jungle

Chasing the game

Playing the part again and again

Losing the hours in the day

I walk in the room

I bury my head

Deep in the sand

Deep in the bed

Making my way back to you

 

I’m living the dream

Smelling the sea

Feeling the tide

Tasting the wine

I’m riding the highs

leaving worries behind

I’m living the dream

I’m living the dream

 

Shoot for the stars

Follow your dreams

Or live your life

just wondering

What comes of you

happens in time

The view of your life

can follow the climb

10,000 hours

Do your time

Nothing comes to us for free

 

(Chorus) x2

 

I’ve been on the road

Out in the cold

But I feel the warmth of you

Where do we go

God only knows

But she ain’t sayin’

I paid my dues

I played the blues

And I found my way

To happy days

But it was a long time coming

 

 (Chorus) x 2

Ohh I’m living the dream

I’m living the dream

 

 

 

 

Get Back Home

 

The highway lights seem bright tonight   

I’m on a road

To get back home

 

Took a wrong turn

So I went that way

Making good time

I’ll get there some day

        

         (Chorus)

 

I’m gunna climb a mountain

I will swim the widest sea

To get back what was taken from me

I’m gunna climb a mountain

I will swim the widest sea

To get back home

To get back home

 

Looked around and I realized

Happiness in life is in your mind

Rain or shine

Living life in a paradise

Green rolling hillside meets the sea

That’s where I want to be

 

Took a wrong turn

So I went that way

Making good time

I’ll get there some day

    

         (Chorus) x 4

 

 

Whether skies are clear or grey

We will share the treasure of today

So take me home

 

 

There’s no wrong turn

Just another way

To find the meaning of a perfect day

 

          (Chorus) x 4

 

Save Me

 

Fell into a dream

But I was wide-awake

Waves were crashing over me

Knocked me off my feet

Should I swim away

Can I fight the tide

Should I wait for the rescue

Or do I save myself

 

Slipped into the darkness

Found my way to the light

Took a breath

Then I held on tight

Do I know the way

To make it out of here

The shore was in my sight

Ohh, then it disappeared 

 Should I swim away

Can I fight the tide

Should I wait for the rescue

Can I take the pain

Will I feel the gain

Is there a lesson for you

Ohhhhh

Somebody save me

Save me from me

Save me from myself 

Ohhhhh

Somebody save me

Save me from me

Save me from myself 

 

Somebody save me

Ooohhh…Somebody save me x 8

Save me from myself

Somebody save me

 

Move On

 

Raised the 80’s I suppose

The final generation of the middle class

I bought the records and I read the notes

Spent my hours in pursuit of cash

 

Curved road

No, straight lines

(Chorus)

I guess I’ll find a way

I guess I’ll find a way

I’ll find a way to forgive you

I guess I’ll find a way

I guess I’ll find a way

I’ll find a way

To forgive you and move on

To forgive you and move on

 

I heard this song on the radio today

Turned it up and then I closed my eyes

It took me back to when I was five

Nothing mattered I was glad to be alive

 

Then the happy song began to fade

I started listening to the words they sang

Nothing I knew would ever be the same

The bitter coldness of the wind and rain

 

Lightning

Broken limb

Hard end

See you soon my friend

 

(Chorus)

 

I laid my head upon the pillow tonight

Rolled around I couldn’t close my eyes

It took some time

Took some time to realize

There is no wrong and there is no right

 

Reach out

Don’t

Waste time

 

(Chorus)

 

To forgive you and move on x 4

 

 

Letting Go

 

Good times come and go away

I'm three miles down a windy road

Cut my ties

Moving on with my head held high

I’ll find a new way to go

 

I'm letting go of what I used to know

Moving forward

Getting stronger

Took some time

To fill my soul

I'm letting go of what I used to know

 

Good times come and go on forever

Find a way to make that true

The lesson's there to learn

Choose your path and believe it

The rest is up to you

 

(Chorus) Repeat

 

 

I Know You

 

Well I went to New York City

and I've been to Hollywood

All the people in between

well, some are bad and some are good

People ramble on for hours

Some don't have a word to say

Guys will look you in the eye and lie

That’s how they make their way

 

I know you

You ain't got no time for friendly conversation

I know you

You look me in the corner of my eye

I know you

You live your life

in quiet desperation

I know you

I've met your kind

A thousand times before

 

I was out the other morning

with my doggy and my wife

When I came upon a man who told me all about his life

He continued on without a question thrown my way

When he saw someone he knew

I quickly turned and walked away

 

I know you

You talk at me and never ask a question

I know you

You don't listen to single word I say

I know you

You drive a million miles

in no direction

I know you

I was kind, so

You'll be coming back for more

I know you

You ain't got no time for friendly conversation

I know you

You ain’t got no time for friendly conversation

You look me in the corner of my eye

I know you

You live your life

in quiet desperation

I know you

I've met your kind

A thousand times before

 

 

 

 

I’ll Come Through

 

Starring at the highway lines

Rocky mountains rolling to my right

Didn’t know which way to go

Think I’m heading west but I don’t know

 

And I’ll come through 

With a fire in my eyes

I’ll Come Through

With a hunger in my heart

 

Ohhhooooooo

 

Drove till dawn and parked the car

Spent the day just strummin’ my guitar

Crashed in Portland, Oregon

Closed my eyes

The next day is was gone

 

(Chorus)

 

 

Paid my toll at the golden gate

and drove down to the beach

Wasn’t sure I’d find my fate

but it felt within my reach

 

Ohhhooo

Oooo x2

 

Redwoods frame my line of sight

Punctuate the the ocean to my right

 

 

(Chorus)

 

 

 

Live Again

 

All alone

On a cliff by the sea

She used to pray

That can never be me

He used to hold her

Now she warms herself

Trying to live again

But the night's so cold

 

(Chorus)

Watching the sun come and go

She takes a walk and discovers new roads

Leaning on all of her friends

Cause she knows

She will live again

 

Far away, once removed

From her old life

Setting back to find a way to live again

She used to think that it was all worked out

Nothing is certain

Except for this moment

Right now

 

(Chorus)

 

 

Time moved on

she began to

Shine again

She stood up

And she rose

Like a champion

Life is cruel

But it can be so beautiful

Lightening can light you up

Or light your way

 

 

Watching the sun come and go

She takes a walk and discovers new roads

Leaning on all of her friends

Cause she knows

She will live again x 4

(How can I ever be whole again)

(She will stand and live again)

She knows she will live again

 

 

 

 

Today

 

Know a girl

She was raised

To believe

That her wants and her needs

Are both the same

She decided she would only

Hear her own words

All alone

On the wrong side of town

 

Everybody live your way

The sun will rise and set with no delay

Blue will turn to dark and grey

The storm will pass and wash away

It all adds up to who you are today

 

Knew a man

And he ran every day

Watched his weight

weighed his life by the pound

Then one day

He looked up in confusion

Smiled wide

Grabbed his chest and

Hit the ground

 

(Chorus)

It all adds up to who you are today x 8
