Ain't Got No Time

Yeah i’m feeling just a little bit older
I start thinking when i’m drinking my wine
Yeah I don’t have near as much patience
As I did when I was feeling so fine
Cause the years just keep on going by faster
So do the months & the days
Yeah I’m even feeling sore when I wake up
Babe you can see the lines on my face
And I know I ain’t gonna get any younger
So girl we better pick up the pace
Cause the clock is ticking & I ain’t kidding
We can’t let our love go to waste
Ain’t got no time
To play your game
Girl if you don’t like it that’s a crying shame
Either way it makes no difference to me
I’ll be going down the road babe
Either way
Yeah lately i’ve been feeling so anxious
Even when i’m trying to sleep
I’ve been tossing & i’ve been turning gritting my teeth
I’ve been waking up from such bad dreams
And i’m trying so hard to feel better
Have a smoke & pour myself a drink
But all that ends up happening is more of the same
“What a drag, man”, I start to think
I ain’t asking for things to be perfect
Cause a nod is as good as a wink
All I want is for things to be OK
Yeah i don’t want my ship to sink
Are you listening to what i’m saying?
I ain’t waiting around all day
She ain’t singing the song that i’m singing
She’s gonna pitch a fit til she gets her way

Last Girl On Earth
04:29

She woke up in the back of a car
On the side of the interstate
Just glad she lived to see another day
She’s resting in the hands of fate
Checked to see if she had everything
That was there the day before
There’s raiders on the road these days
And you never can be too sure
And she just don’t know
What to do or where to go
Everything just hurts
Cause she knows she might be
The very last girl on earth
She barely remembers the time
When everything was just alright
She used to have the sweetest dreams
When she laid down her head at night
Before the plague of locusts came
And the rivers all turned to blood
All of her worst dreams came true
And she’s praying for another flood
And she knows
She might be the last girl on earth

In A Little While
04:37
|
|||
|
All by herself in a little old house in the trees
No one around & she listens to the breeze
It whispers her name & it blows through the leaves
Through the windows like a melody
The kettle is boiling in the kitchen on the fire
She just can’t sleep even though she’s so tired
The wind & the whistle sing together like a choir
She can’t stop thinking of the one
That she used to desire
It’ll be much easier baby
When the water turns to wine
Yeah you’ll feel much better honey
In a little while
If she’d known better things wouldn’t be so bleak
But when you’re young & you’re in love
You don’t realize you’re weak
So then you start to get older
And people break your heart
And if it keeps on beating that’s the hardest part

A To Z
02:59
|
|||
|
I’ve been walking after midnight
I’ve been thinking bout the world
And the way that things are going
All the banners of war have unfurled
When I think of all the people
Who live across the sea
I feel the same sorrow, I worry just as much
For the ones who live next to me
And their fingers on the trigger
Of the gun in the hand of the cadet
Who’s taking his orders from aristocratic lords
Who’ve imprisoned him in his own debt
And he’s just like all the other people in this world
They deny there’s no c, just a or b
But they know damn well, just like you & I
That it goes all the way to z

Sparrow In The Wind
04:08
|

|
Woke up with you in my mind again
Thinking about all the places we had been
All the things that we used to do
And how much time I spent with you my love
Fell asleep with you on my mind again
Had a dream that we could still be friends
At least i’d get to see your smile
And talk with you for a little while my love
My sparrow in the wind
This broken heart won’t mend
And you flew away again
My sparrow in the wind
I still like to hold on to my dream
That you’ll come around no matter how bad it seems
But in my heart & in my mind
I know it won’t happen & i’ve been so blind for you
I don’t know what to do

Middle Man
05:57
|

|
I don’t know how I got here baby
I just ended up on the scene
No recollection of nothing
It all feels like some kind of dream
If I stand outside myself
Looking in at where I stand
I start to see things clearer honey
I can see just where I am
I’m the middle man, I’m the line in the sand
I’m the in between, Yeah you know what I mean
I’m your tug of war, I’m your revolving door
I’m the food on your plate, I am love & hate
Baby you know who I am,
Baby you know who I am
I’m the middle man
When you pull this way
I’m going that way at the same time
Trying to juggle both gets me feeling
Like i’m working for nickels & dimes
I think it’s time to put my foot down
Make a stand for my own sake
Yeah if I don’t cut you off
I’ll keep giving & you’ll always take
Baby you know who I am,
Baby you know who I am
I’m your middle man

Black & White World
06:31
|
|||
|
I live in a black & white world
I always feel so all alone
Blue, red & yellow might as well disappear
All I see is monochrome
All the shadows are grey
And it’s raining every day
All the colors look the same
And nobody knows your name
I used to think that my life was blue
But the darkest blue is black
So i’ve been staring at the clouds in the sky
Now they seem much less abstract
I don’t want to live in a black & white world
I don't want to live in a black & white world
I don't want to live in a black & white world
I don't want to live in a black & white world

I Don't Want To Wake Up
02:52
|
|||
|
Some days I feel like I don’t want to wake up
Just keep on sleeping cause I’ve had enough
And I can’t take much more or I might lose my mind
Thinking about the love that I left behind
I’m so tired of waiting for the end
Trying to get out of this place i’m in
It doesn’t matter where you’ve been
We start dying when life begins
I feel time’s cold fingers wrap around my neck
When I think about the things that I used to expect
And I realize there’s nowhere I can go
Nothing’s gonna change no matter what I know
I always wonder if things will change
After all these years & all this pain
So I close my eyes & I hope for the best
Maybe one day I’ll get some rest
