It seems like life would be better some other
way some other day, life is what you make it
that's what some say just go away, i don't want to
hear it i'm confused i'm not amused, right now
i'm incoherent i'm not on my own still i'm alone,

i should have seen it coming i didn't want to see
i can see us breaking permanently!
I guess it's out of my hands that's exactly what i hate

there's one thing left to turn to it's not a girl and it's not the world,
when everyone has their own thing
he's into you and he loves you too. he's
what keeps me going when i'm afraid any my beds not made.
Still I haven't forgotten that they're over there and
i'm right here. i might not always be here.

Light my path show me
the way filter everything
i say try to forgive try
to forget why do i do what
i regret? my flesh nature
won't abide its ripping
me apart inside Jesus
pulls me back together
my soul will be with him
forever can't get away
from bitterness can't
seem to lose my
selfishness my faith in father
God cause i am
weak and he is strong!

i need the kind of girl that knows a girl that
likes to wear my clothes somone who always
buys me coke someone who laughs at all my
jokes that's the girl that i want to see fall in love
with me that's the girl that i long to know oh
how i love her so i'm looking for a girl who
writes me songs and talks to Jesus all day long
and the way she does her hair no one else
can compare i'll probably meet her at a show
when i look at her i'll know that she's the
perfect one for me and with her i will always
be the one for me

intimidation has put me thru what i need to
stand up to you don't protest i've made up
my mind i've got to leave it all behind i
believed so many times your deceit too
many lies my hope for you in decadence
can't replace what's torn apart it took me
such a long time to realize i was an instutution
for you go where you want to go know who
you want to know now i know that i was
lied to sometimes i see your lighter side
the part of you try to hide it's true you
still don't seem to care never a word only
a stare no one has ever known you you
don't even know yourself your best friend's
your enemy too what else can i say to you
it took me such a long time to realize i was
an instutution for you go where you want
to go know who you want to know now i know
that i was lied to

it tears me apart inside i know
think twice it tears me apart inside i know
i do it too you can run but you can't hide
deep down i find you so it seems it's no big deal
we don't think about it much a pain created a
pain that's real i've got the scars to prove it
when we tear each other down what's our
intentions? it's always more that just a joke
so let's try to think twice-so think twice! it's
true we are a brotherhood and we all know it
bonded by the son of God is how we live-so think twice!

we're all walkin' down a dusty road i
wouldn't care to bear the load i
know my limits but you won't leave
my alone it's a system unopposed
for those of us who won't say no your
time is your own now face the facts
are real establishing lines always
comes first many don't realize
the pain they cause

every now and then i get
time alone so my
solitude gives me time to
roam through my ideals i
excogitate how i see the
world and how it sees me
sentence me all alone i
won't be on my own
take me as i am in
support of a populist
implicate yoursef those
who are impious i'm
disassociated for more
than just one reason
don't discount my
feelings for the truth

right now there's
nothing left for me to
say now you want me to
go away heard it one to
many times now it's
swimming in your mind
you don't know how you
should feel can't decide
if what's real is real how
does the faith come so
easily why believe in
what you can't see?
i feel so bad have i done
all i can? want to give
you more don't know
what i can have you ears
to hear what is said to you
have you eyes to see
the light that's shining on
you

i'm sorry i can't relate i
refuse to associate so
don't go balming me for
your bad hair day bad
hair day
i saw you yesterday you
told me to go away i
guess you were having a
bad hair day bad hair day
would you like an aspirin
for your bad hair day bad
hair day

i can't get to sleep at
night just thinking about
the day that you'll be
here everything's gonna
be alright when i'm
thinking about holding
you near will you look
away from me? please
don't look away from me
i'm gonna sit and
consider flowers i'm
gonna sit and think for
hours
right now the box i'm in
well it's a good box i
hope you'll open it the
way i see it in my mind is
you are here and there
you're gonna sit will you
look away from me?
please don't look away
from me
what it comes down to is
this with my
expectations did i miss
the way you felt for me
or did you ever want for
this to be?

you could never put it
on a map once you're in
there's no turning back
we work together or we
don't work at all nothin
you can do will make us fall
pokinatch! punx!
he's meaningful to us but
not to you he's the one
true center of our lives
his light is shining thro-
ugh and on to you it's
your choice he'll always
be there waiting
pokinatch! punx!

why can't things be the
way the used to be?
why can't i feel the way; i
used to feel? back in the
days when it all worked
out was it all in my
mind? and now it won't
come out when i don't
think i'll get by when i
fell that i need to cry it
hurts me even more to
think how it was before
no you first is how it
always went the simple
things made us content
we don't need nothin'`
except and the one true
God that keeps us
together i hate time!
cause time brings
change! and change
makes me start all over
again i guess i can work
with time but does time work out

a promise from a
cardboard box so
commonly thrown on
the street how easily we
break apart but we never
seem to stay that
way there's something
inside those jars
of clay!(2cor.4:16)
outwardly we're wasting
away inside we're
renewed day by day it's
always him it's never me
he is truth why can't you
see? there's something
inside those jars of clay.

you'll never be th man
they want you to be
you've got no goals in
life it don't make since
to see someone
forgotten someone you
used to know is there a
reason no one seems to
care no one can give you
the life you get what he
said was true and i'll
never forget his son the
sacrifice now i owe him
my life give your life to
God come into his light
don't let the world own
you with it's false
analogies of what a
happy life looks like and
why you don't add up
there's no happy ending
to this impossibility so
change your mind and
give him time i'm sure
you'd agree thy gave
you heroes someone to
look up to you'll never
be like them no matter
how hard you try it's all
superficial a deceptive lie
i know you're getting
tired so stop!

another song about tv
how much tv sucks
washes your brain of
intelligence you sit
around all night and day
was life really ment to
be thin way? tv sucks!
watching your life go
down the tube and you
wonder why every day's
a re-run nothing
different happens
nothing new your life's a
show and the show is
over tv sucks! a waste of
time of a created mind
star trek's been airing far
to long can you sleep at
night without sight and
sound what ever
happened to reality? tv
sucks!

have you ever noticed
how people twist the
words that you have said
to them funny how these
things occur taking it
literally all the thins
you've said not looking
in to deep in the
meaning of what they've
read twisted words
causes ignominy twisted
words changes what
things used to be it
happens every day
without it they would i
just can't come to see
why they aren't sick of it
all on and on they twist
the things tell me will i
end words will change all
the same with the
messages you send

i ask myself the question
what is wrong with me
can't figure what it is or
why it's never me they
want when will my turn
come about and when
will justice see me why
all these stupid questions
they never help me you
never notice me you
never seem to see when
i'm walking by you never
ever say hi i don't know
nobody that i don't want
to know but i'd sure like
to know you and i'd like
to show you how the
way i am and things that
matter much to me how
i say i am i usually how
those things don't seem

who could it be it's
probably me i know
there's something wrong
it should be a big
mistake to let this go to
long maybe it's all inside
my mind with no room
left to grow and now it's
coming outside and it
just won't let me go why
does it matter where
you've been because i
cAre for you my friend i
can't read into you mind
what's been going of
inside? miscom-munica-
tion always seems to
turn around those
beneficial doubts those
smiles into frowns how
can i remember if
i never even knew you
can't pin all on
me it's also up to you

i am myself and no
one else because my eyes
see so much negativity
pressuring me every day
thy judge me as
something i'm not
there's so many lies in
this world today fears
and doubts run thru my
mind i've gone thru this
a million times i read his
word look to his face
but i could never earn
his grace it's not right to
sit at home we're the
church of today not
church of tomorrow

there's barriers in my
mind that i think about
all the time and i know
there's no way past them
i can never get away
from the things that
people say well i guess
that's just part of it all
my one way window
where i can't hide my
one way window where i
can't see the other side

choose a direction which
way you gonna go? you
chose rejection because
you didn't know what he
can do for you what he
has done for me
the purpose we've been
waiting for the purpose
that we want to see why
won't you see the signs
there's a dead end
between the lines it
looks impressive now
just wait cause you will
see all those things let
you down including you
and me there's more
than meets the eye so
much more to know
learn to think more
clearly and i know that
you'll start to grow
