Maybe, just maybe
I'll stand on the corner and you'll save me
I'll look through my fingers like a baby
And see
And see
The chances are zero
That the next person buy would be my hero
But they might meet me later for a beer though
And see
And see
That's what we're looking for
That's what we're looking for
That's all we're looking for
That's all we're looking for
We don't need anything more
We don't need anything more
We don't need anything more
We don't need anything more

Stay Online

I don't know why all my friends have disappeared
This past year, to outer space
Maybe they saw an opportunity
To escape from the rat race
But I'm not gonna lose a wink of sleep
Or drink too many drinks
Stay online
Cuz I do what I do
When I do what I wanna do
Yes I do what I do
When I do what I wanna do
Alright
And the beat goes on
And the beat goes on
Some cope, some don't cope
Some are in the middle
They cope a little
Enough to stay afloat
If you see yourself here
Don't take it personally
Between you and me
We're in the same boat
So I'm not gonna lose a wink of sleep
Or drink too many drinks
Stay online
Cuz I do what I wanna do
When I do what I wanna do
Yes I do what I do
When I do what I wanna do
Alright
And the beat goes on
And the beat goes on
And the beat goes on
Yeah
And the beat goes on

I'm Nothing
02:56

I’m nothing
I’m nothing
Thought I’d be something
But I’m obviously not
I’m broken
Must be broken
Cuz who’s still hopin’
When they don’t have a shot
(Now don’t get me wrong)
I admire people who keep fighting ‘til the end
But I don’t have it in me to pretend
I got more than I got
Cuz bad is good and good is bad
When all is lost aint nothing sad as
Holding on when you should let go
Are these illusions or just delusions
With nothing to show
I’m screamin’
Silently screamin’
Like when you’re dreamin’
And can’t make a sound
(Now don’t get me wrong)
I admire people who never give up
But I could never live on the tough
Side of the town
Cuz bad is good and good is bad
When all is lost aint nothing sad as
Holding on when you should let go
Are these illusions or just delusions
We'll never know
I’m nothing
I’m nothing
I’m nothing
At least for today
At least for today

No matter how you rearrange the furniture
It’s still the same house
You can’t sweep it under the rug
Or polish away years of doubt
When the floorboards creak under the weight
Of heavy steps walking away
It’s not a home sweet home that you leave today
Home sweet home
I miss my home sweet home
It hurts me to the bone
To have to live alone
Talkin’ to myself and pictures on a shelf
Cuz there ain’t nobody else
Just my own private hell
H-E double L
I’m settled now in a new place
The paint is fresh on every wall
With an extra key under mat
In case you decide to call
Everything brand new, nothing second hand
Unless you decide to call
You're welcome here but you won’t stay long
When sit down with the truth
It’s not your old sweet home you’re returning to
Home sweet home
You miss your home sweet home
And it cuts you to the bone
The way you live alone
Talkin’ to yourself and pictures on a shelf
Cuz there ain’t nobody else
Just your own private hell
H-E double L
H-E double L

Electric Son

That’s my son
Wouldn’t touch a gun
Wouldn’t hurt a fly
Not afraid to cry
My job is done
What a son!
That’s my boy
Hope he doesn’t change
Well let him be different
But still the same
He won’t need Freud
Not this boy!
Up, up he goes
Like a tree grows and grows
And in the wind
Swings to and fro
To and fro
To and fro
Now he’s a man
But it’s a disguise
He’s still a baby in his mama’s eyes
There’s nothing bigger than
A little man
Up, up he goes
Like a tree grows and grows
And in the wind
Swings to and fro
To and fro
To and fro
Up, up he goes
Like a tree grows and grows
And in the wind
Swings to and fro
To and fro
To and fro
That’s my son
Wouldn’t touch a gun
Wouldn’t hurt a fly
Not afraid to cry
I'm a lucky one
My job is done
Yo that's my son
He's not afraid to cry

Focused Mind
02:58

I’m not fuckin’ around this time
I think I can get it right
All it takes is a focused mind
How did all these months go by?
Nothing accomplished
Nothing tried
When all it takes is a focused mind
It’s so simple
Anyone who breathes
Can just get started
Do that at least!
Advice is thrown from left to right
Up and down, in the middle of the night
If only you would focus you’d be fine
It’s so easy
Anyone can see
You just get started
Would you do that please.
There's something missing
Inside of me
You see a forest
I only see trees
So I’m not fuckin’ around this time
I’m not fuckin’ around this time
All it takes is a focused mind
And I’m gonna get started…soon

Chance of a Lifetime
03:59

How do hearts break
Then be unbroken
When you miss the chance of a lifetime again
Again
I made a mistake
Blew it wide open
And I watched the end of a lifeline slip away
Away
Is it too late
Is it ever too late
How long must I wait
For the answer to my questions
Some would sail across the ocean just to get another point of view
I just wait along the coastline for you
For you
How do hearts break
And be unbroken
When you kiss the chance of a lifetime goodbye
Goodbye
I let the bond break
I left it to fate
Now its all been erased
Cuz I went the wrong direction
Is it too late
Is it ever too late
How long must I wait
For the answer to my questions
Once you took me on a river just to get another point of view
But I was waiting for an answer from you
From you
And be unbroken

Forgotten Thing
03:38

Story as told
What is an island for if not to hide, not to hide
That’s what you're doing now
Behind your pride, behind your pride
Story as told
One hundred years ago
You were a king, a mighty king
Now you're a forgotten thing, forgotten thing
You cried
What is a man like me
Doin’ here, doin’ here
How does a man like me disappear
In your eyes
What is a mountain for if not to climb, not to climb
That's what you're doing up here now
Awandering, among the pines
He cried
What is a man like me
Doin’ here, doin’ here
How does a man like me disappear
In clouded eyes
Don’t take the matter into your own hands
Lord knows it never really hurts to try and understand
One hundred years ago
I was a king, I was a king
Now I'm a forgotten thing, forgotten thing

BYOB

I just found out
There's plenty of room in my heart
BYOB
I hope it's not
Too late for me to start
BYOB
It's gonna be slow
You're free to go
BYOB
But I hope you, I hope you don't
I hope you don't
I hope you don't
