Congratulations

Thank you kindly for taking her out and showing her a real good time
I was paying for her way too much
Now My cash flow is mine!

Congratulations it's plain to me that you are an excellent lover
Just think of me when you're laying in bed
you make your move, and you try and fuck her!

It's not that often that you chance to meet a man with fortitude
Apparently I was done with her
and she went for the better brewed

Congratulations I just wanted to say that function always follows form
So I am sure that when she's done with you
you'll write your own God damn song!

A whisper to the night

Loneliness is never ending, I accept it into my life
Am I wasting time thinking of you?

Loneliness is never ending, my fictitious friend
I’m Filled with fear in the evening, I wish that it will end
Loneliness is never ending, I can’t take it my whole life through
An ebbing flow of contentment, then everlasting solitude

In fields of grass in a starlit evening
Just gazing up at the starlit night
Laying on the grass with you beside me
I turn my head to look but no on is in sight

Loneliness, Loneliness
Why am I all alone?

Loneliness is never ending, words always occupy my life
Am I a waste keeping vigil, holding a torch way up high?
Loneliness is never ending, it’s a feeling I call my own
Cause in the darkness every night brings - I’m here, here alone

Laying on the grass on a moonless evening
Head high into a starry night
on the grass and I day dream
What the hell is wrong with my life?

Loneliness is never ending, tears occupy my time
Am I wasting life thinking of you?
An image is in my mind
Thinking of a gentle voice, a melody and rhyme

Diggin' through the lint in the hole of my pocket
Think of all the money I'd be watchin' if I had a dime
I need some peace of mind

Keepin' in time to the song that is playin'
feelin' all right, just as long as I'm drinkin'
I made my bed now, I'm gonna' lie down

Unless I find peace of mind

I'm waiting to check out any time
You said you'd be there when I died
Are you coming back?
This isolation's killing me
It's something I've done purposely
Hoping to find that peace of mind that I need

peace of mind

Workin' at a job just to fill my pocket
skimmin' from the top 'cause nobody's watching
I've paid my dues now, it's collecting time

I drive my car like a top fuel rocket
it's all right as long as no one's watching
'cause when I drive I can feel peace of mind

Take me away from here
it's everywhere I go and everywhere I see...
peace of mind don't belong to me
I've been fighting back the tears
You'd think it's easier though the years
peace of mind is eluding me

I can't take it anymore

Maybe I can find a life where all is right
someone to spend my life with
set me on the tracks when I go astray
I may not go astray

does it seem that strange?
does it have to go away?
I'd like to know, I need to know
can you tell me when something's wrong
when life turns out that way?

I need that peace of mind
I need to know when things go wrong
don't wanna' hear the same old song

You can hear every word I'm saying
cause you felt what I'm going though
Now I have empathy too
Peace of mind in it's good time
and that's where I'm gonna' find
some peace of mind

Happiness - you'll hope you'll find
but you can wait your whole life through
end it all if you're going to
or keep on trying and you may find
that peace of mind is there for you

that's my line on peace of mind

Superstition

superstition
I'm superstitious for the black cat
She's the babe in the back
She's the black cat

Oh, baby, baby what you do to me
it's effecting my biology
I'd run away but there's no place to flee
I can't help but to act emotionally

she just gave my heart a whack

She's enough to lead a man to drink
There's no time to let me stop and think
my superstitions are grabbing hold
my knees are weak and my hands cold

I can't describe what it is I feel
I'm afraid it's all becoming real
I can't explain what it is I see
superstition has taken over me

I've got nothing to lose - I've got nothing to gain
I'm a loser with expectations
when you gain you stay the same

So babe, was it love or money? Ah, forget it, I just don't care
I'm sick and tired of explanations. You change your fiends like the clothes you wear

I've got nothing to lose - you've got nothing to gain
I'm a loser with aspirations
when you gain, you stay the same

Are you looking for easy street to find a man who's the perfect guy
I'll tell ya' honey, "it's not that easy" - if you want love then you gotta' try

You've got nothing to lose - I've got nothing to gain
when you try and make a change
I hope you life, that it stays the same

I'd want you back but I'm full of anger and that's something you can't undo
I leave for work with good intentions, hit the clubs lookin' for a screw

I've got nothing to lose - I've got nothing to gain
when you walked out from my life
you forced me to change

I felt the love between us, I'll endure though it's gone
I've got nothing to lose 'cause nothing remains the same

Come on baby hop in the back seat, I'll drive you home in a little while
are you looking for some commitment? I think it's a waist of time.

You've got nothing to lose - I've got nothing to gain
it's either "yes" or "no" tonight girl
either way it's just the same.

I've got nothing to lose - I've got nothing to gain
now I know that love fades, and every day remains the same.

What you did to me makes me angry
I wish that you could feel how hurt I am
but you’re removed from my situation
I will wait for retribution

You will only die once
You can only die one time
Lay down one last time for me
Put an end, and end to the misery

There’s no law that’s been broken here
but I served time in rage, and hate, and fear
and when you die it won’t go away
What you did will never dissipate

Your head is what I want
When you are dead, good and dead

I always think of you endlessly
my whole life was turned upside down
I am trapped - I want you in the ground
but I will wait - and I will wait!

You will only die once
You can only die one time
Lay down one last time for me
Put an end, and end to the misery

Your head is what I want
When you are dead, good and dead

I’ve been lookin’ for a way to satisfy my urge
everything I feel is black
There’s nothing you can do and nothing you can say
I want my life back
Oh, I want you dead
I want you dead
I want you dead
You, hurry up and die!

You can give it a try once
Won’t you give it a try this time?
Can you do this favor for me?
The reasons are easy to see

There's so many things that go unsaid
I wanted you to know I want you dead
through the gravel and the mire I was dragged
I hold it over your head
Anger and pain, remorse refrained
Revenge is gained if patience is maintained
You can only die once

I hope to see your life drowning in a pool of misery now
Now!
You can only die once

Death and pain - who’s to blame?
but the greater gain is when you feel the same

You can only die once

Politically - everyone hates me
when I speak - they dislike it
I'm repressed - held back every day
Do, eat, drink, and say

I can see - why you dislike me
I can hear - your screams
I don't know - how to get away
Take this knife - and use it in your life

Trapped inside - of this reality
doing time - with one who loved me
then one night - nothing was left for me
time spent, repent, slam the door and leave

I can see - but salty drops are blinding me
I can hear - you are frightening me
I don't know - how I managed to breathe
Take this knife - stab my heart and take my life

I've always waned to solve the problem
Now, I've got the knife, and I'm asking you - to use it:

Taking time - remove what's left of me
drink it up - it's got the best of me
I can feel - almost nothing
it's what I need - and what I wanna' be

I can see - three feet in front of me
I can hear - nothing in reality
Take this knife - cut ropes that bind me tight

Oh, my head hurts
Conform to this chaos you call normal
a seething mass of direction?

Get the fuck out of my way!

Driving down the highway, late again today
it's grid lock on every rout, or pull the key and get out
I've got bills to pay, and there's a cop next to me
tell me how to get away and off this highway

A jealous angry man waiting at an empty house
ride away in frustration, the speed - masterbation
Pull into the left lane, a slow jerk does the same
Don't try and tempt me, oh no - not today

One Way is all I see, nothing can make me madder
One way and no way back, can't you see how it's got to be?

My head hurts
Conform to this chaos you call normal
a seething mass of direction?

Fighting back temptation, stretch as far as I can see
Pull me in all directions. so thin that you can see through me.

Driving down the highway I gotta' go my way
the strangle hold I feel right now - character torn away
Intravenous life line - self-destruct any time
I always take the fast lane and I don't read any signs

One Way is all I see, nothing can make me sadder
One way no looking back, can't you see what it's done to me?
