A Little Christmas Cheer

It's that time of year again.
And the snow is all around
The year is almost at it's end.
This season's so profound.

Everything is about material.
It really is sad.
The damage is collateral.
Good times other's could've had.

Just give someone a little smile
It's worth all the while.
Just spread all your cheer
It'll make their whole year.

Ask yourself if you,
would do something good
To put back your neighbor
into neighborhood.

So how would you feel?
If you couldn't share
Your good times with others
Because no one would care.

Just give someone a little smile.
It's worth all the while.
Just give your good cheer.
It'll make their whole year.

At first you may be ill
If you don't give to many
Some good hearted will
To those who haven't any.

This Christmas you'll learn
To fly like a dove
You feel your heart burn
Well that is called love.

Just give everyone a smile
It's worth all the while.
Spread your Christmas cheer
It makes everyone's year!

It only takes a little Christmas cheer.
To make anybody's year.

You have nothing to fear
Just spread Christmas cheer.

Just spread a little Christmas cheer.

A little Christmas cheer.

Losing Purpose

I like to hear her voice
I love her so much
But, you know
It's not really my choice.

My heart has
A mind of its own
Something's inside
That has yet to be shown.

I've lost all sense of responsibility
She is the only thing that is constantly
Pushing me onward
making me stronger.

Now please don't fret
I'm just talkin like Bret
Cause even if we're apart
She'll never break my heart.

Can't break my heart,
It's liquid
It melted when I met you.

In Reply To Your Death

Would I give it all up for you?
You asked if that's what I would do.
Compared to you everything is worthless
A glimpse of your smile is priceless.

To break a promise, give you a hug
Or just stand there and give a shrug
Hold your hand, give you a kiss
Or your fading I would just dismiss?

Lay with you on the bed here?
While I whispered sweet in your ear?
Or just let you be in pain
Would I still be sane?

At your funeral, would I sing there?
If you died would I even care?

I would be praying to the lord
Your death isn't something my small heart can afford
I wouldn't fast for a week
I would forever more cry
I would fast forever
until I die

If somehow you did survive
Would I help you to revive?
Helping you to learn to live life?
Always on the edge like a sharp knife?

Would I do that?
Could I do that?
No.

Because the thought of losing you
It kills me.

You and Me

Look into the future
and I see nothing good
I don't even want to try
because I'm not in the mood.

Eventually you will let go
because things'll get bad
It's just a little something
but too much you'll have had.

I know it's not right
I know its something wrong
The only thing that I can do
Is to put it into song

You have to promise me that you will let loose
And I promise you I will let go my brain juice
I know it don't sound easy
but when you get down to it
It's only you and me.

You can live without me
but I can't live without you
We are stuck together
though we don't know what to do

And I'm always getting into
some kind of crazy crime
And you always bite into
Some kind of rotten lime.

You have to promise me that you will let loose
And I will promise you that I will let go my brain juice
I know it don't sound easy
But when you get down to it
It's only you and me.

Only you and me.

South of Nowhere

Sitting here for an hour and a half
Trying to think of a reason to cry
My life like a piece of toast
Burned up and way too dry.

Moving, depressingly
Through each darkening day
Knowledge is all that matters to them
Imagination is held at bay

Where
Oh where am I going with all of this?
I'll tell you where I'm going
and it's a little place I like to call south of nowhere.
If you need me, I will be there.
South of Nowhere.

Well my brain's kinda itchy
Everything's a little mixed
October's getting witchy
And I want things fixed

I'm in the public and I put on this face
For anyone else, it'd be a disgrace
It's because I'm the right guy
But no one seems to know that yet.

I'm just a mustard seed
Small and easy
I know it sounds cheesy
But I will be giant, you can bet.

Where
Oh where am I going with all of this?
Well I'll tell you where I'm going
And it's a little place I like to call the south of nowhere
If you need me, I will be there
It's called the south of nowhere.

So I'm at the border
Its where I was sent
end up finding the drugs
in my glove compartment

I know
It wasn't the plan
Now there's a ban
Never to return again
Sorry my good friend
Please will you lend
Me a good hand
Get me out of the land
Called self-destruction
Promise not to do it again

Where
Oh where am I going with all of this?
Well I will tell you where I'm going
And it's called the south of nowhere
If you want me I will be there
The south of nowhere

The Lonely Clown

I've always heard
That you only fail
When you've stopped trying

Well, that isn't true
I find failure is when
You're always dissapointing,

Someone.

Well I've tried so many times
And I can't seem to get past
All my troubles
Because my plans are not pre-assessed
Someone looks down at me like I'm,

No one.

Potential is clear
Success is so near
But I cannot hear
What is being said

To me.

Am I dragging you down?
When I am around?
I noticed you found-
Popularity so profound
I look like a clown
But get down to it and I'm just

Alone.
So alone.

I look for a new sound
But I just hit the ground
I want to stay down
I just want to frown
But then I

See you.

And I try a little longer.

Behind the Rusted Fence

Caught up in a tornado
Tryin to please everybody
Including them and you.

I'm ten pages behind
Something I can't seem to find
Because I don't know what to do.

Or maybe I know
But I'm pretty sure
That I've only lost the motive.

In a working space
A very tight place
I only want to be creative.

"It's for my own good"
I find that crude
To me that doesn't make sense.

In a prison, I wanna break out
To scream and shout
But I'm stuck behind the fence.

I'm walking in slow-mo
But everyone is walkin fast.

I'm in a depression
That I can't just seem to get past.

Give me a pencil
Give me a pen
Give me a microphone.

I get around
When I feel down
But please just leave me alone.

Give me a pencil
Give me pen
Give me a microphone.

Give me time
And I'll think of a rhyme
For an act that'll never be shown.

For an act that'll never

Be

Shown
