Wasted Time

A woman woke up today,
To a life she didn't know,
She looked into the mirror,
And all of the sudden she was old,

Time went by,
Decissions were made,
So was her bed,
Now she has to lay, down on it,
What went wrong,
She can't put her finger on it,

A lonely tear runs down,
Her shrinkled face,
An entire life vanished,
Without a trace,

Wasted time,
Only two words going thru' her mind,
Wasted time,
Wasted time,

A man finds himself,
Looking back to his past
He thinks back on his youth,
And goes, oh, nothing lasts,

Memories, way back,
From a disscarted time,
Are coming in waves,
Fludding his mind,

He can't help but,
Put his earlier life up on the highest shelf,
'Cause today he's nothing, no one,
Nowt but a ghost of his past self,

Wasted time,
Only two words going thru' his mind,
Wasted time,
Wasted time,

Wasted time,

Only two words going thru' their minds,

Wasted time,

Ain't Got nothing But Time.

Lonely days are over,
Gonna pack my blues away,
Up in a hidden corner,
Start my car and head down to the frisco bay,

Can't wait to sink my toes in the water,
And feel the ocean sway,
I'm gonna wash off the things that don't matter,
And watch as the day dies away,

I still ain't got a clue,
Of what I'm trying to find,
Gonna sit the whole day thru',
I ain't got nothing but time,

Sittin' here under the moon,
Whistlin' a melody,
Trying to bang out a scrappy tune,
To keep me company,

There's something a bit blue,
'Bout sittin' under the stars alone,
Feel like all I do,
Is wait for the sun,

I still ain't got a clue,
Of what I'm trying to find,
Gonna sit here the whole night thru',
I ain't got nothing but time,

Where am I trying to go,
It still scapes me,
When I get there I'll let you know,
Unless this life forsakes me.ARealRock'N'Rolla

No one knows...(floating off)

Love the lies I don't believe,
Hate the ones I do,
Can't pin it on my mind,
Even the best of us fall thru',

The sun's always coming up,
And going down,
As are we all,
Only the sun, never hits the ground,

Don't it get a bit hard sometimes,
Walking down life's rocky roads,
No one knows for sure which paths to tread,
That's the way it goes,

In need of a hand,
To fix broken thoughts I can't repair,
Once I thought I caught a fleeting glimpse of it all,
But now it's gone, it just ain't there anymore,

Feel like I'm floating off into outer space,
In the most peculiar of ways,
Cold and numb with no sense of direction,
Just drifting away with no real sense of place.

Whatever

Let the cat out of the bag,
Tell it like it is right off the bat,
With your feet planted on the ground,
Say it without horsing 'round,
Lookie over here,
Tell it without fear,

Say whatever you say,
Don't let anyone get in your way,
Do whatever you do,
Choice is really up to you,
Be whomever you wish to be,
Beware, time's going by so hurriedly,
Do whatever you will,
While you're breathing still,
Before you make a box your home,
And set to rest your tired bones,

A chip of the old block,
Only you can say if that's true or not,
Your story is yours to tell,
The blank pages for you to fill,
It's time to get busy living,
'Coz the clock's ticking,

Say whatever you say,
Don't let anyone get in your way,
Do whatever you do,
Choice is really up to you,
Be whomever you wish to be,
Beware, time's going by so hurriedly,
Do whatever you will,
While you're breathing still,
Before you make a box your home,
And set to rest your tired bones.

L. A Dreaming

Head on down south,
To the whitesandy beaches of mexico,
Live our drams for the both of us,
'Coz I'm afraid I can't go,

Promissed you I'd always be there,
I'd always be by your side,
I ain't going nowhere,
As long as you're breathing, I'll be there for the ride,

Everything I ever did,
I did for you,
If your mind can't understand it,
I hope your heart does too,

Drive all of the day,
And the whole night thru',
Forget about L. A,
And forget about me too,

Sit by that golden shore,
Watch the waves rocking back and forth,
Sip on the sweetest glass of wine,
Light a cigarette and you'll see what it was all for,

Everything I ever did,
I did for you,
If your brain can't understand it,
I hope your heart does too,

Mybe one day you'll thik about home,
And shed a tear for a lost brother,
But don't waste a second thought on me,
I'll be long gone, so don't bother.

The Same Cards

A suicide attempt,
Amongst other things,
I wear on my sleeves,
For the world to see,

A bastard for a father,
A crazy woman for a mother,
Can't say who's madder,
Them or me,

A leaf blowin' in the wind,
IfI could I would have,
The same cards dealt to me again,
'Coz to me it hasn't been half bad,

Always been a cat,
Going over rooftops,
Dancing in the moonlight,
Looking for another try,

A bum with the soul of a poet,
My palace an old cardboard box,
I'll start my self a fire,
And cast regret into the pyre.

A leaf blowin' in the wind,
If I could I would have,
The same cards dealt to me again,
'Coz to me it hasn't been half bad,

My scars,
Make me proud,
Lying beneath the stars,
Singing out loud.

A leaf blowin' in the wind,
If I could I would have,
The same cards dealt to me again,
'Coz to me it hasn't been half bad.ARealRock'N'Rolla
