SHOW ME TOMORROW

Cry

Tell me what's wrong, tell me why you're broken
Come here for a moment, I'll wrap you up in my arms
So talk, I'll only listen
And should you lose control of that lump in your throat

Just go on and cry, let it all out
Hold on to me tight, surrender your pride
Go on and cry

Pain, the hurt has taken over
So bring on those teardrops, and I'll be the shoulder
Strength comes only after the storm's gone
There's no use in hiding the thunder and lightning

Just go on and cry, let it all out
Hold on to me tight, surrender your pride
Go on and cry

It's funny how you realize after it's over
the one thing you needed was to lose your composure
hold on real tight, go on and cry

Forever In Your Debt

You, and everything you do
You've given more than I have to give back to you
I say you, and all the things you do
You put me first even if it won't work for you

You're my heartbeat
you are my eyes when I can't see
I hope you know the truth
I'm nothing without you

When I'm ever feeling low
You repair my heart finding light in my darkened soul
I am forever in your debt
Wager my heart and all I have, and all I am
So make your demands and I'll give all I can to you

You're my heartbeat
you are my eyes when I can't see
I hope you know the truth
I'm nothing without you
And everything you do
I'll spend the rest of my life trying to repay you

You're my heartbeat, you are my eyes when I can't see
I hope you know the truth, I'm nothing without you
And everything you do
So ask you'll receive, I'll give what you gave to me

You gave me hope, when all my hope was gone
You gave me strength, when all my strength was gone
You picked me up, when I couldn't go on
You took my side, whenever I was wrong

All I've Ever Known

You came home late, you made me wait
My mind was racing
And I could see the signs, behind your eyes
The truth in your lies

So you point your finger and I'll take the blame
I'm tired of your sick twisted games
Did I say enough, or did I say too much?
Now you're gone, that's just my luck

You said it best when you stood up without words
Grabbed your things and just left me alone
And now where do I go when you're all I've ever known

You, you did your worst
You made it hurt, you cut me deep
And I lost control, my mind went dark as a black hole
My head and my heart seem to hate each other
One says it's lust, the other says I love her
Did I say enough, or did I say too much?
Now you're gone, that's just my luck
Where did you run?

You said it best when you stood up without words
Grabbed your things and just left me alone
And now where do I go when you're all I've ever known

Where do I go from here?
Where did you go my dear?

You and I are like fire and ice turned into ashes
The wind can have them
Yeah you and I are like fire and ice turned into ashes
Take them you can have them
You and I are like fire and ice turned into ashes
The wind can have them
Yeah you and I are when fire and ice collide

You did it best
You drank all the good and left me the rest
Where did you go, where did you go?
Where do I go when you're all I've ever known?

Show Me Tomorrow

I've been holding on to nothing
Staring at these walls waiting for something
I've tried my best but I can't ignore
The best i've got is nothing more than waiting for something

Sink or swim, I just breathe in
As I breathe in I think life's too far ahead
When did I fall behind?

Now I quit holding on to something
Staring at these walls waiting for nothing
Damned if I do and if I don't
Cause if I will; the world won't
So I am waiting for nothing

Show me tomorrow
Tomorrow feels a million miles away
Show me tomorrow
I just want to know I make it through today
I just wanna know that I'll get through today

When did I fall behind? How did I fall behind?

Show me tomorrow
Tomorrow feels a million miles away
Show me tomorrow
I just want to know I make it through today
I just wanna know that I'll get through today

Nothing's Forever

I can feel the distance, your heart seems unsure
You put me through hell cause loving you is a war
I hope to God you're happy, I hope that you had fun
You'll get what you deserve when all is said and done
I don't know when, I don't know how
But that was then and this is now

So baby if we're going down I don't wanna remember
That I was there to watch us fall and learn that nothing's forever

And now your secrets have come out, you've justified my doubts
I gave you my trust, put all my faith in us
It's bound to rain inside your eyes
Cause honey you've been caught as the guilt multiplies
Take a bow, are you proud?

Baby if we're going down I don't wanna remember
That I was there to watch us fall and learn that nothing's forever
Yeah I don't wanna lose it all I wanna get it together
But I know it's gonna get much worse before it's gonna get better

That was then, this is now
I don't know when, I don't know how
I don't know if I'll survive but God I'll try

Scarred

Empty house filled with memories
Haunting me when I sleep in this bed
The impressions you left make it hard to forget
It's like you're a ghost
Now all my picture frames are facing down
Cause I don't have the strength to throw them out

I am scarred from my head down to my heart
Where you aimed and left your mark
It's all that I have to remind me you're gone
It keeps me from moving on

Raise your glass
Cheers to never looking back on this world we built together
All I'm left with are these open wounds that aren't getting better
Cause it's hard to forget this damn hole in my chest
And the mess that you left when you left me
Now these blankets and sheets are like chains around me
And this bed is now holding me hostage

I am scarred from my head down to my heart
Where you aimed and left your mark
It's all that I have to remind me you're gone
It keeps me from moving on

If there's a will there's a way but I can't seem to find it
If I could then I would grab our tape and rewind it
And erase the mistakes, all the bends and the breaks
All the lies and the smiles you so easily faked
And except all the facts that you're never coming back
And it's brought me to my knees

Gone

I was surprised to see her waiting on my front porch
Her eyes told mine that things were not OK
I just stood there while she told me that she loved him
Wishing I had not come home that day
And as she slowly walked away I had a vision
Of life without her I could hardly breathe
This is the end, no second chance
Now he's got what I had
And I don't know if I could ever love again

As my world comes crashing down tonight
I'll hold on to all her memories and forget all the lies
I'll never know if we could have made it all along
I still can't believe she's gone

If someone out there could please give me one good reason
Why I sure feel like hell and she's OK
What goes around comes back around, she'll feel how I do now
And when she does I hope it hurts her more than me

As my world comes crashing down tonight
I'll hold on to all her memories and forget all the lies
I'll never know if we could have made it all along
I still can't believe she's gone

Waking Up

Are you just waking up?
Can you see the sun down there?
Have you had enough?
All your walls are closing in
So take those pills you love but they won't cover up the lies
Or get you high enough to forget that you've chosen this life
I know I know I know that you've fallen
Get up, get out of the hole that you've crawled in
Don't waste your time, don't think you can't save yourself
One little word can break the spell

No, to those artificial getaways
No, to the chemicals that flood your veins
Damned if you don't, hope if you just say no
Damned if you don't, hope you can just say no

So that grave you dug,
Is it deep enough to hide from the ones you love?
Buried in your selfish pride
You've been searching for so long
But you've missed every sign
Pushing limits, chasing demons
Now you've crossed the line
I know you know I know that you're falling
Climbing too high, too fast, and then stalling
You need to change get out of your own way
You've gotta find the will to say

No, to artificial getaways
No, to the chemicals that flood your veins
Damned if you don't, hope if you just say no
No, to any fix sold quick and cheap
No, to that rush they sell you on the street
Damned if you don't, hope if you just say no
Damned if you don't, hope you can just say no

I know I know I know that you've fallen
Get up, get out of the hole that you've crawled in
Climbing too high, too fast, and then stalling
Won't stop the pills, the demons from calling
Say no, say no, say no, man you've got this
You know, you know, you know you can stop this
Damned if you don't, you've got to take control
Life is a train and you're the conductor
Choosing your fate, derail and destruct or pull on the brake
There's hope it's never too late

One Of Those Days

It's just one of those days, nothing's going my way
I think I'm heading for a break down
I'm the king of almost and epic mistakes
I'd really like to change it I just don't know how

When will my darkest days be more than miles away?
When will my wrongs turn right?
When will I sleep at night with this mess I've made?

I rush when I should wait
And all I've ever love just seems to fade away
It's always the same routine
Cause I was given chances that I didn't take

Now all my darkest days are closing in on me
Now all my rights are wrong
And it will take so long to clean this mess I've made

If you've seen me lately you'd think I'm going crazy
Trying to figure it out before it kills me

If all my darkest days are more than miles away
If all my wrongs turn right
Maybe I'll sleep at night and clean this mess I've made
When all my darkest days are more than years away
When all wrongs are right
I'll finally sleep at night and clean this mess I've made
When all my wrongs turn right
I'll finally sleep at night and clean this mess I've made

It's just one of those days

Barefoot and Bruised

Look into my eyes, I can see the damage
I can feel the cold dark place you're in
You don't have to hide cause I'll be right beside you
Through every tear run down your skin

Maybe when your sky comes crashing down
I can be your angel on the ground
If you get tired and can't go on I will carry you along
When the rocks below your feet wear out your shoes
When you're barefoot and bruised

I know you've been hurt, I know that you've been broken
Had to walk alone no hand to hold
But those lonely days are gone
Cause I am right beside you
Down every long and darkened road

Maybe there are angels watching us

Stranger

I used to walk, I used to wander down these roads
Searching for a place that I could call my home
But I never seemed to find anywhere I didn't leave behind
I packed my things, followed the wind
Adding distance to the places I had been
The air was warm but I was cold within

I walked for miles until I came across a southern bell
Who lead me to a town where people hung around for their whole life
It was the perfect place but somehow I just didn't feel at home
So I left before the sun came up at dawn
But it was cold so I caught a cab
When I told him to go anywhere he laughed
Then what he said I'll never forget

He said
"Son you've got to understand happiness has never been
a place that you could go, it's the people that you know
I could take you further East or West
But I don't think you'll rest until you go
Back to the ones who truly make a place a home"

Take me home, that's where I wanna go
So take me home, yes sir I wanna go home

I realize taking this walk down memory lane
The best advice I ever got was on that day
I owe my life and everything to a stranger
I don't even know his name
