Learn To Cope

When we were young and free,
The world was full of possibility.
We held hands and smiled,
As dew trickled down the wild.
But now windows are all muddy,
And fire inside is no longer ruddy.
We look for love in wrong places,
And we no longer see beauty in faces.
The thread of love is fragile,
And it can break with slight wriggle.
But let us not lose hope,
For we can still learn to cope.

Heading Down
04:36
|
|
||
|
I'm standing here all alone
On this midnight train.
Thinking 'bout what I left behind
And what's ahead of me.
The rhythm of the wheels
Matches the beating of my heart.
As I stare out at the darkness
I know it's time to start.
Chorus:
I'm on a midnight train
Heading down to the coast
I'm on a midnight train
Leaving all my ghosts

Something Real
03:59
|
|
||
|
Whiskey nights and neon lights,
I'm looking for something real,
A place where I can lose myself
And forget about how I feel.
Music's loud and air is thick
As I take another sip.
Night is young and so am I
And I'm not ready to quit.
No more looking back,
It's time to move on.
No more second chances,
It's time to be strong.
Chorus:
Whiskey nights, neon lights
I'm looking for something real
Whiskey nights, neon lights
A place where I can feel

Poison Ivy
03:39
|
|
||
|
She's like poison ivy
Dangerous to the touch.
Her beauty is deadly
And I can't get enough.
Her eyes are like emeralds
And her skin is like silk,
But beneath her beauty
Lies a heart made of steel.
She's a master of deception
And I'm a willing victim.
She's like poison ivy,
But I can't resist her venom.

Smell Of Water
03:40
|
|
||
|
To myself, what can I say,
As I start my day with whiskey?
I don't want to be a burden,
I need to find way to unburden.
Should I take pills or drink whiskey,
Or find a way to be more frisky?
Let me find my own path,
Be more mindful of my own wrath.
Life is full of choices and chances,
And we can all find our own dances.
Let us not be afraid to change,
Let smell of water be our range.
