You don't trust anyone over 30 so you don't trust me
You don't understand that I'm not your enemy
Don't keep the sad day going this way
It's a sad day in music here
It's a sad day for anyone near
Don't keep the sad day going this way
It's a terrible time for me and you
It's a terrible time for what we've been thru
Don't keep the sad day going this way
I don't want to lose a friend but I have to
I don't want to lose another person, what can I do
If it wasn't even meant to be
Not for you or me
Not even meant to be

Ever woke up with the blues
three different ways
where you had two minds to leave
and one mind to stay?
Cuz I woke up this morning
so sick in bed
I was thinking about the good times
I once have had
Cuz it's so hard to love someone that don't love you
ain't satisfied, really don't care what you do
you ever woke up with the blues
three different ways
where you had two minds to leave
and one mind to stay?

Lay down your resting head
and foretell of the end
it's only inside my mind
wake me up in time
I couldn't jump even if I tried
the water's too deep and the bridge is too high
please don't watch me
because I'm going to cry

I am afraid of everyone I like
So if you're wondering, that's why
I am afraid of abandonment
So if you're wondering, that's why
And you're so nice and tall, you scare the hell out of me too
I was caught in a shuffle
Lost in space
I didn't know what I was doing
Could you forgive me
I was caught in a shuffle
I am afraid of everything I like
So if you're wondering, that's why
I can't really deal with much
So if you're wondering, that's why
But when you hold me, I can feel it next to mine

Never thought
It would happen again But indeed
Here I am my friends
I always thought
Maybe I'd keep it in
But for sure
Here I am my friends
Let's go away
Just you and me
If they can't tell what we are
We'll hold each other's heart till they go away
I never thought
World would come around
But I know
It's better I did this now
Let's go away
There'll be a brighter day
We can be ourselves
Live a better way
and make em go away

My Life Is on Fire
03:50

Do you ever think about me
When you're alone with nothing to do
Well my life is on fire
And it's all because of you
There's nothing that I can do now
I'll be alright again some day
But my life is on fire
And it's not for me to say
How sad am I writing up this tune
But I'm alone with nothing to do
My entire life is on fire
My souls torched through and through
My lifes on fire
And it hurts
My hearts in flames
And nothing will work
But to sit around and think of things that won't ever be
But to sit around and think about you and me
Is it time for a meltdown
Could take a day or two to repair
But my lifes on fire and it's neither here nor there
Is it time for a lockdown
Could be three or four days to be fair
But though my lifes on fire, and I wouldn't dare
My lifes on fire
And it hurts
My hearts aflame
And nothing will work
But sit around and think of things that I won't ever be
My life's on fire
Someone please help me
Do you ever think about me
When you're alone with nothing to do

The Only Way

Going down is the only way, you think it can't get worse
After all your boasting and flexing, you're gonna get hurt
You're gonna come to our level for the first time in years
You're not on top no more and the future, for the first time, is not clear
The only way forward is to swallow your pride
After all your mudslinging, you have no more insides
The best way to do it, would be to get out while you can
Find another contest to enter, you broken man

We talk everyday, so I guess I'm not in your way
Now it wouldn't be the same without you
Too scared to talk, I turned away and balked
Now it wouldn't be the same without you
Been passing people like you going in and out closet doors,
I've denied my feelings, and what for?
Without them

(traditional)
My girl, my girl
Don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun never shines
I'll shiver my whole life thru
Her father was a railroad man
Lived a mile and a half from town
His head was found near the drivers side, his body was never found
My girl, my girl
Where will you go?
I'm going where the cold wind blows
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun never shines
I'll shiver my whole life thru
You caused me to weep, you caused me to moan
You caused me to leave my home
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun never shines
I'll shiver my whole life thru
