Breakin` Down
You don't believe that I love you And even if that was true Why just to keep our unhappy home I'm gonna try to pretend that I do But I'm breakin' down I'm breakin' down I'm breakin' down I'm breakin' down My baby she left me said she ain't comin' back around and I'm breakin' down I'm breakin' down And if I thought that it was okay For a grown man to cry I would have filled up the whole mighty ocean When she said goodbye and I'm breakin' down I'm breakin' down I'm breakin' down I'm breakin' down You know my baby she left me said she ain't comin' back around and I'm breakin' down I'm breakin' down One day you said everything was just right I don't see how it changed overnight One day you said everything was so strong The next day you turn to me and say It' s been wrong all along Oh and now you won't even look at me You pass me by in the street and you won't even speak I never meant to cause you any harm How could two people start so close And end up so far I'm breakin' down I'm breakin' down I'm breakin' down I'm breakin' down |

You say what's mine is mine
And what's yours is mine too Now you've got more than you can spend But all of the money in the whole wide world Is not gonna help you in the end Now while there's still time to be saved Don't take that attitude to your grave It might be too late for you I'm afraid So don't take that attitude to your Grave Don't you take it there I hear helicopters over my house everyday Shining their lights and flying low Treat a child like a criminal from the day he is born And you're gonna reap just what you sew Now while there's still time to be saved Don't take that attitude to your grave Might be too late for you I'm afraid Now don't take that attitude to your grave Don't you take it there So you can move your court case way across town You can move it across the whole wide globe But it ain't gonna help your court case up in the sky When you go to put on your white robe Now while there's still time to be saved Don't take that attitude to your grave Might be too late for you I'm afraid Don't you, they don't want it. Don't you take it there. And you dare the children stay off of drugs I dare to stop letting them in And how dare you point your finger at a gang out on the street While its you who is committing the sin Now while there's still time to be saved Don't take that attitude to your grave Might be too late for you I'm afraid Don't take that attitude to your grave Don't you take it there They don't it want it there You know your mother taught you better Don't take that attitude to your grave |

Pleasure And Pain
I'm leaving here on the morning train And I will never see this world again I've felt pleasure And I have felt pain And I know now That I can never be the same How I wonder why the world can be so cold And if only good die young Then left with me cruel here to grow old And I felt pleasure And I felt pain And I know now I can never be the same And if someday I find my peace of mind I will share my wealth with all of human kind I've felt pleasure And I have felt pain And I know now That I can never be the same So if the sun does shine or rain does fall I give thanks I've had my sight to see through it all And I've felt pleasure And I've felt pain And I know now That I can never be the same |

Walk Away
Oh no Here comes that sun again That means another day Without you my friend And it hurts me To look into the mirror at myself And it hurts even more To have to be with somebody else And it's so hard to do And so easy to say But sometimes Sometimes you just have to walk away Walk away With so many people To love in my life Why do I worry About one But you put the happy In my ness You put the good times Into my fun And it's so hard to do And so easy to say But sometimes Sometimes you just have to walk away Walk away And head for the door We've tried the goodbye So many days We walk in the same direction So that we could never stray They say if you love somebody Than you have got to set them free But I would rather be locked to you Than live in this pain and misery They say time will Make all this go away But it's time that has taken my tomorrows And turned them into yesterdays And once again that rising sun Is droppin' on down And once again you my friend Are nowhere to be found And it's so hard to do And so easy to say But sometimes Sometimes you just have to walk away Walk away And head for the door You just walk away Walk away |

Ground on Down
I believe in a few things God the devil and love cause I've looked up from the bottom and I've stared down from above I have faith in a few things divinity and grace but even when I'm on my knees I know the devil prays and you're working your way from the ground on down I hate to say I love you because it means that I will be with you forever or will sadly say goodbye I love to say I hate you because it means that I will live my life happily without you or will sadly live a lie and you're working your way from the ground on down life is short and if your lookin' for extension with your time you had best do well cause there's good deeds and there is good intention they're as far apart as heaven and hell and you're working your way from the ground on down |

Roses From my Friends
I could have treated you better but you couldn't have treated me worse but it's he who laughs last is he who cries first Sometimes I feel I know strangers better than I know my friends why must a beginning be the means to an end The stones from my enemies these wounds will mend but I cannot survive the roses from my friends When the last word has been spoken and we've beared witness to the final setting sun all that shall remain is a token of what we've said and done When all we've had has been forsaken distant church bells no longer ring that's the sound of a heart taken and the story of tears from a king The stones from my enemies these wounds will mend but I cannot survive the roses from my friends This may be the last time I see you forgive me for holding you close this may be the last time that I see you so of this moment I will make the most This may be the last time I see you but if you keep me in your heart together we shall be eternal if you believe we shall never part The stones from my enemies these wounds will mend but I cannot survive the roses from my friends |

The Will to Live
I met a girl whose heart was on the right hand side and upon the left an angel did reside they told her mother that she never would survive but she kept the rhythm and is still alive We must all have the will to live you got to have the will to live Then I met a man who had to walk with his hands born into a world he couldn't stand blessed with life but cursed as a man still he walks taller than most of us can We must all have the will to live you got to have the will to live Some are born with more and some born with less so don't take for granted the life we've been blessed it's hard to understand that we're only a guest and each one of us shall be put to life's test We must all have the will to live you got to have the will to live |

Ashes
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust that's what has become of our love and trust Love has no direction cause love has no aim love can leave you as fast as she came Meeting is such sweet sorrow cause someday we may have to part hush don't you make a sound you're gonna let me down Good things come to those who wait but good things are gone from those who are late All that I am is all I can give but with or without you my life I must live Meeting is such sweet sorrow cause someday we may have to part hush don't you make a sound you're gonna let me down Living ain't easy since you've been gone no one else can please me or make me feel home Forgetting ain't easy you stay on my mind thoughts of us haunt me can't leave them behind |

Glory & Consequence
I'm more afraid of living than I am scared to die I'm more afraid of falling than I am of flying high Every moral has a story every story has an end every battle has its glory and its consequence I'm more afraid of loving than I am of being scorned but I will keep on trying though I have been forewarned Every moral has a story every story has an end every battle has its glory and its consequence I would rather me be lonely and you have someone to hold I'm not as scared of dying as I am of growing old. Every moral has a story every story has an end every battle has its glory and its consequence |

Can you tell me why
You're so uptight Out of your head And ain't talkin' right Can you tell me why Your mind ain't straight Out of touch And can't relate Mama's trippin' Daddy's slippin' Everybody's talkin' 'bout Keepin' it together But I see people splittin' When there's inclement weather What you want is what I want So why can't we agree If I could be inside of you Maybe I could see why Mama's trippin' Daddy's slippin' You and I ain't spoken Ain't spoken for a week Soon there won't be nothin' Nothin' left to speak Things ain't the same Since you've gone insane Let's take some time And ease the strain Mama's trippin' Daddy's slippin' |

I Shall Not Walk Alone
Battered and torn still I can see the light tattered and worn but I must kneel to fight Friend of mine what can't you spare I know some times it gets cold in there When my legs no longer carry and the warm wind chills my bones I reach for Mother Mary and I shall not walk alone Hope is alive while we're apart only tears speak from my heart break the chains that hold us down and we shall be forever bound When I'm tired and weary and a long way from home I reach for Mother Mary and I shall not walk alone Beauty that we left behind how shall we tomorrow find Set aside our weight in sin so that we can live again When my legs no longer carry and the warm wind chills my bones I reach for Mother Mary and I shall not walk alone |
