it shouldn't be this way but sadly this feels like the truth these days my friends.

See The Light

I want to tell you bout the best in life
But I wish even knew how it would feel
So many dreams not comin true
Where's my chance to seal the deal

I could write about whatever I want
And no one would bother to look up
I'm tryin for a world that doesn't care
I'll done with this, enough is enough

Chorus
Where's my glory, where's my success
I know it's waiting just outta my reach
It's far away now just outta sight
Why can't I just break on through
and see the light

I've waited so long to have it all
But it hasn't come to me and it never will
Why is it that people with no need
Get everything that they ever want

I'm tired of goin out to comeback alone
Nothin to lift me up, nothin to keep for me
No more cryin over what won't be mine
I can't help but want everything for me
Why does everything have to be this way
Why can't I have everything that I want

Chorus
Where's my glory, where's my success
I know it's waiting just outta my reach
It's far away now just outta sight
Why can't I just break on through
And see the light

People say money can't buy happiness
But I'm afraid I'd have to disagree
I know they're wrong deep down inside
I just want everything all for me

Chorus
Where's my glory, where's my success
I know it's waiting just outta my reach
It's far away now just outta sight
Why can't I just break on through
And see the light

this song is about trying to feel better. enjoy

Tell Me When You're Ready

I've heard the crimes, that you speak of
But time flies, no more time to say
Anything at the end of the day
No more things to speak of

Feels like the day was taken away
And nobody's gonna get it back
This might shake you down here
But there's no more time for fear
No more, no more

Chorus
You want to see the world now
You want to do what you want now
So tell me when you're ready
So we can go and find it for ourselves
We know we've got all the time here
And I just want to spend it with you
I can't be stopped just like that
So we can do what you wanna do

You thought you'd never see the show
All these places that you wanted to see
You should've known I could've taken you
So now you can see what you wanted to see

No more classes to steal your life away
No more rules to hold you down
If you wanted to see what it's really like
Then come and get your feet off the ground
I can't wait anymore come on come on
No more losin cause it's time to win

Chorus
You want to see the world now
You want to do what you want now
So tell me when you're ready
So we can go and find it for ourselves
We know we've got all the time here
And I just want to spend it with you
I can't be stopped just like that
So we can do what you wanna do

Don't think about all the time you spent
Waitin for the right one to come around
It's alright, everything will be alright
Come on just enjoy the lights

Chorus
You want to see the world now
You want to do what you want now
So tell me when you're ready
So we can go and find it for ourselves
We know we've got all the time here
And I just want to spend it with you
I can't be stopped just like that
So we can do what you wanna do

My song for Remembrance Day.

The Ones

The ones who would hold the line
The ones who kept us safe at home
Brave enough to step up to the cause
The ones who went out never alone

The least we can do is take a moment
Remember the past of the ones long ago
The people who never had a future
The ones who are lost where nobody knows

I know what you say, I know what you do
But you can never forget, what they did for you

Chorus
The light in the darkness for our lives
The answer to the crimes of war
We never wanted to see them go
But they would end up saving lives

Freedom fighters in there own right
The heroes of there time
The rescuers of freedom for the world
No man left behind

Run down and left in the cold
Can't even get up to save a life
Staying strong keeping the faith
War always cuts like a knife

I know what you say, I know what you do
But you can never forget, what they did for you

Chorus
The light in the darkness for our lives
The answer to the crimes of war
We never wanted to see them go
But they would end up saving lives

Number 5...Well actually number 6 but who's counting anyway.

Only So Many Places

If it's not right to fall this way
Then that's alright with me
If it's not ok to look my way
Then I'll have to get over it

Being alright with where I am
Was hard from the beginning
I had to tell myself once again
That fame and fortune isn't everything

Chorus
Here again I long to be inside
To hide away from the outside world
The only thing that mattered
I could not see
There's only so many places to go
But I will always find my way

There was no reason to hide away
I thought about it but nothin happened
Everytime I thought I knew it all
I had forgotten everything again

Closed away feelin like it's over
I wanna find another way to fame
It wasn't right and It ended there
I was stuck in the wrong game
The only reason I will ever know
Is that I needed to forget about it

Chorus
I no longer want to be inside
No more hiding away from the world
The only thing that mattered
I could not see
There's only so many places to go
But I will always find my way

No more tears to cry
No more fears to hide
I no longer hold back anymore
Nothing to lose
Everything to gain
Everything has opened for me

Chorus
I no longer want to be inside
No more hiding away from the world
The only thing that mattered
I could not see
There's only so many places to go
But I will always find my way

Number 4. I keep on writing

Lost In The Moment

Right before the sun went down
The rules would always stay the same
No one could fight no one would cry
That was how we played the game

As simple as life use to be
Night would come it grew so cold
Standing alone after the fall
No one who could be told
To go inside
Cause they are already there

Chorus
Loneliness comes down to a choice
Will it be taken that way for the moment
If only you dared to see it another way
You wouldn't be so lost in the moment

The ones who went outside at night
Were thought to be crazy outta there mind
Breaking the rules forsaking the voices
They wanted to do it on there own time

They would live the dream
No one could stand in there way
They held to what they thought was right
But they didn't see beyond tomorrow
Nobody asked themselves what's wrong
No one could see the future beyond tomorrow

Chorus
Loneliness comes down to a choice
Will it be taken that way for the moment
If only you dared to see it another way
You wouldn't be so lost in the moment

They sealed there fate on the other side
The doors were closing very fast
Then they realized one single thing
They were reliving there own past
It was never right
never was to begin with

Chorus
Loneliness comes down to a choice
Will it be taken that way for the moment
If only you dared to see it another way
You wouldn't be so lost in the moment

Number 3. I'm on a role tonight

I Won't be Company to Misery

I understand the pain inside
I know all too well about it
The tears that swell inside
But there's nothin good about it

Broken hearts will feel like forever
Like they just won't go away
It's no fun to keep it all inside
And you'll think about it for days

But there's always hope comin
Tomorrow could change everything
Nothin bad can come from lookin up
Just let it out and start to sing

Chorus
I won't be beaten by a passin affair
I won't beg to get away from suffering
I can show that I will be on top
I won't be company to misery

The words that I am lost for
Tell the story that's inside of me
Everybody around the world is the same
Different eyes but same thing we see

Feel like there's no use in tryin
Don't feel like getting up to go outside
Heartache feels like your best friend
But it's too far away from the end of the ride

You feel like everything is over
There's no hope for tomorrow to come
I understand what you're goin through
But it will change when I'm done

Chorus
I won't be beaten by a passin affair
I won't beg to get away from suffering
I can show that I will be on top
I won't be company to misery

There won't be any more tears to cry
The sun will break through the clouds
The world will be right once again
And you will be shouting out loud

Chorus
I won't be beaten by a passin affair
I won't beg to get away from suffering
I can show that I will be on top
I won't be company to misery

Number 2 comin at you

The Heroes That We Never Knew

A warning was sent
But no one paid attention to it
The lost could have stayed found
But ignorance is always bliss

A promise was made for freedom
But was it really supposed to be
Far away but never forgotten
It was never too late to see

Chorus
Remember the past
The heroes that we never knew
What they could have done
What they wanted to do
Never let go
Show them that you'll carry on
There's nowhere left to fall
No goin down til it's all done

The saviors of our generation
The ones we never wanted to be
What kind of world would do this
Who could let them never be seen

The lesson that we should've learned
The reasons were written everywhere
No matter how long it will take
We should not agree with what's not fair
So slow down and take a breath
Not everything has to be this way

Chorus
Remember the past
The heroes that we never knew
What they could have done
What they wanted to do
Never let go
Show them that you'll carry on
There's nowhere left to fall
No goin down til it's all done

These were the people who died
These were the people we let go of
We should have stepped up
We should never have given up
They were people just like us
And we just let them go

Chorus
So remember the past
The heroes that we never knew
What they could have done
What they wanted to do
Never let them go
Show them that you'll carry on
There's nowhere left to fall
No more goin down til it is done

I'm going to try to post a new one every time I write one. So here's number 1

No More

Broken down and buried here
The search was over long ago
Quietly the nights went by
In the end nobody will ever know

Can't believe it's all gone to dust
No way to go back in time
No way to stop yourself from this
You've been left behind

Chorus
Trapped inside a dusty hole
Sealed beneath the very ground
Crying out someone save me
But no one can here you now

Forever seems such a long time
Begging to see the light again
After all the lights go out
The only feeling left is pain

The stars go by to open your eyes
You find the strength to carry on
Pushing through the darkness now
You won't leave your work undone
The thin disguise that holds you back
Will be shed for your new start today

Chorus
You're no longer trapped inside a dusty hole
You're no longer sealed beneath the ground
No more crying out someone save me
Cause you've made it out alive and free

I just like the what it's about

Wrong Tonight

When right gets switched with wrong
When hate is what passses for love
Older people younger people
Hold each other down nobody's above

Each with reasons but they're the same
One reasons he's trying to save them
Another says she just wants it to go away
But they're still doin wrong to them

Chorus
Breaking the silence to save everyone
They must know that they aren't right
All alone is what I imagine they are
All I know is they've done wrong tonight

I was never lookin for another sad story
I was lookin for someone doin some good
All I found was a pass for acceptable
But it was never meant to be understood

Alleyways filled with things unspoken now
No one should ever see any of these things
On the street it's just about the same
But all the voices are gone and nobody sings

Chorus
Breaking the silence to save everyone
They must know that they aren't right
All alone is what I imagine they are
All I know is they've done wrong tonight

What makes it right what makes it wrong
I know inside what I need to do
I know there's more trouble in this city
But how can I close my eyes to all of this

Chorus
Breaking the silence to save everyone
They must know that they aren't right
All alone is what I imagine they are
All I know is they've done wrong tonight

Not the nicest of things but who cares. I like it.

Too Much To Bare

I've never seen more tears then now
I thought they only came out when your down
But I watched a waterfall come down
And all I heard was a screaching sound

Is it so hard to smile when it's not so bad
Does it hurt for you to admit the truth
It makes no difference what you say to me
Cause I don't care to tell you the truth

Chorus
No once cares what you whine about
No one cares when you scream and shout
Go look for someone else to care
Cause when you speak it's too much to bare

It's too bad when you lied again
That you came out and found who I am
My shadow doesn't reach far and wide
Cause I don't need all the attention

You will find me inside a state of hatred
Your still young so just give it a rest
Trying to put me down again and again
Only proves everything I've said
I listened to you go on and on
But the line is drawn and I am done

Chorus
No once cares what you whine about
No one cares when you scream and shout
Go look for someone else to care
Cause when you speak it's too much to bare

Go find somethin real to cry out for
Somethin in this world that really matters
I'm sick and tired of people just like you
Your unimportant pain I will shatter
And someday you will realize
That what I did was for the better

Chorus
No once cares what you whine about
No one cares when you scream and shout
Go look for someone else to care
Cause when you speak it's too much to bare
