Somewhere Along The Way

VERSE
The desperate times of the desperate measures,
I can't remember why I felt so tense.
So much to do, and I'm still begging,
To the commuters for some time to spend.
PRE-CHORUS
There's a world out there to find some answers to,
The questions in my stale thoughts.
There's nothing worse than seeing you are blind,
To the ways it's moved along.
CHORUS
Somewhere along the way,
We took a long, wrong turn,
Somewhere along the way,
We lost our will to learn,
For the better, for a way,
To see through pain,
But somewhere along the way it will come again.
VERSE
Through 95 to 99, it's all a blur,
Colours of my innocence are shades of what they were,
I don't know how I believed the stories I told,
It's a cold reality, the fact of growing old.
PRE-CHORUS 2
We only hate what we don't truly see,
We come around when we find worth,
But who is valued? Well that depends upon the scene,
And how we want to make a mark upon the earth
CHORUS

Wheel of Heartache

VERSE
Last night was a big mistake,
Tried to tell you there were things to gain,
Well this war of words, it hurts,
Didn't need to say the things we did, we didn't need to follow this course.
PRE-CHORUS
A lonely day,
Hope gone away,
That you'll come back, that you'll forgive me,
For all I've done,
Still moving on,
I'm trying to set the world just right
CHORUS
Around and around and around we go,
It's a wheel of heartache on failure road,
I let myself struggle and feel,
The punishment for errors, the false and the real,
They say time it heals all wounds,
But no time will let me forget you,
And the way you changed this heart of mine,
So I take my wheel of heartache and I ride.
VERSE 2
I ain't ever met someone,
Who can justify everything they've said or done,
Well it's never in our control,
When you're playing with emotions, when you're facing the unknown.
PRE-CHORUS

Someone

VERSE
She's standing and waiting in line to,
Find out her place in a world where,
Nobody cares
For the solution
VERSE 2
I know because I have felt it when,
The winds change and life pains you through your,
Heart and soul, still you've got to keep going,
And keep on smiling.
CHORUS
Too many times,
Spoilt for choice,
Still I committed wrong,
Lonely days,
Usual nights,
Waiting to be someone.
VERSE 3
Lighting the darkness with her own flame,
She brushes against all the others who
Dream about, getting gone and out,
Of this wasteland.
VERSE 4
Tepid, the feel of the future's warmth,
Running to nothing yet there's still hope,
It never comes, you just cycle on,
Around in circles.
CHORUS
There's the illusion,
You believe,
It's all said and done,
Lonely days,
Usual nights,
Waiting to be someone.

What a joy it is to be here,
Waking up in this morning light,
Didn't think I would make it,
After our long lasting fight.
Where you win some days,
You force me to choose,
Between the troubles of life that I know are easy to lose.
CHORUS
I'm worn down to the bone,
I'm scared and tired,
And afraid of being alone.
There's no help for my delusions,
Just these pills to numb my brain,
But even if there were solutions,
I'd reject them all the same.
I was standing on the bridge,
Choking on booze,
Overdosed on life and the ease if I lose.
CHORUS
You saved my soul when I met you,
From the fate of a broken heart,
Though I've tried so hard to lose you,
You are forever in my heart.
Still keeping me sane,
You keep away the blues,
And the troubles of life which I know are easy to lose.
CHORUS

Give yourself another chance,
As the sun breaks through the trees,
Spare your heart that old romance,
Drift away upon the breeze.
Go alone to find yourself,
Though the road you know is long,
Put your past back on the shelf,
Accept mistakes now as your own.
CHORUS
Save yourself, and you'll save me again,
Free to roam, still you'll stay my friend,
And when you find your home, just call me again.
And I'll see you again,
Oh, I'll see you again.
On the dark side of the world,
You found a call to life unknown,
Watered by your life so well,
Into a flower you have grown.
I recall your parting words:
"Don't wait up; you're still young."
I sat back as life unfurled,
I let you go and be the one.
CHORUS
