Untitled (Possible Title: Heart of Men)
Verse 1 Unscrambled thoughts Consuming beliefs Get down on your knees Obey your master Get your reward when you transition Go forth and spread the message across the land Advisement certainly comes at a cost Funds collected will aid in your righteousness Your body, a temple worthy of care Your body, a vessel for truth or despair Verse 2 Underestimation of intelligence Wanting to learn new things Analyzing traditional methods Shaking foundations They say that youth is wasted on the young Intoxicated by rhetoric Elevation of words Robotic mindset, militant stance Unwavering appeal Why don't you see the world like we do? Verse 3 In public spaces, people are afraid of originality They criticize what they don't understand Differences are rejected Insanity is doing the same thing repeatedly And expecting different results Have your judgements They are contingent on modern attitudes Social movements gain popularity with the passage of time Which side of history do you want to be on? Chorus Stories we've come to know Since time began So grand, so legendary Many take a stand Free-form thinking clashes with preservationism Ongoing research and intense debate Reveal the desires and drives of men Written by B.

Untitled (Possible Title: Unbearable)
Verse 1 You don't know what I want You don't know what I need You think you do You don't know how I feel You don't know how I live You think you do You don't know what my goals are You don't know what I aspire to be You think you do You don't know what I think You don't know what's important to me You think you do Verse 2 Erasing you from my mind is what I'd like to do Sometimes forgetfulness is good The damage you have caused Has affected me to the core I'm not as whole as I'd like to be Mental progression has slowed itself down But I'm determined to have a new state of mind Bridge Confusion collides with hate Psychological pain is all that remains Efforts to correct the situation Could take upwards of a lifetime We all twist and turn Many become unable to learn from their circumstances They say "The past is the past" Even though it molds our future Chorus It's unfortunate to be the object of your attention There's a sickness in you Even if you disagree with that Bombs go off wherever you are I don't want to be a casualty of your emotionalism Life is difficult to navigate With you in it, it's unbearable Written by B.

Little Barrie
Verse 1 You're growing a bit bigger But not big enough To cause me to rush into your domain I see where you're at But I don't know for sure If that's the place where I want to be Soon enough I'll have to decide On what I want my future to be I can't let indecisiveness get the best of me I know that there are no guarantees And that's the way it's supposed to be Leaps of faith can change one's life for the better I shouldn't discount the power of timing Verse 2 Sometimes I feel like I am drowning And when I try to come up for air I sink a little deeper into my mind Where thoughts run rampant And chaos is the norm It's perpetually in a mental storm But with your help, I may have a chance To finally breakaway free And become the person I've longed to be For many years it was just a dream Now it's a possibility Bridge Miles of land separate us A common goal could unite us If I were made of bricks I'd stand firm on my own But I'm just a man looking for a place to call home Chorus 1 Little Barrie With your minimal strength And your small size In the centre of confusion What can you do for me That I can't do on my own? Where will you take me That I haven't been before? I've heard some things about you That I'm not quite sure are true You could be what I need So I'll take a chance on you Chorus 2 Little Barrie With your minimal strength And your small size In the centre of confusion I've heard some things about you That I'm not quite sure are true You could be what I need So I'll take a chance on you And if I become very attached I could fall in love with you Written by B.

This Is Love, This Is Murderous
Verse 1 This is love, this is murderous The best thing that could ever happen At the worst possible time This is pure and genuine Conquering anything, forsaking others While regret begins to grow Hearts and souls uniting In a world divided by hate Verse 2 This is love, this is murderous Sweet sensations colliding with the bitter aftermath All involved will sustain injuries This is a blessing from on high This is a curse from way down below Good versus evil takes centre stage Minds and spirits uniting In a world divided by fear Bridge Trading in every possession For a lifetime filled with happiness Is worth far more than silver and gold This is whole and never-ending Patching up all the broken pieces Only to have them scattered around Chorus 1 This is love, this is murderous Unpredictability Sunshine and blue skies On a perfect summer day This is love, this is murderous Volatility Riding on highs and sinking on lows On a horrible winter day Reality overpowers fantasy This is love, this is murderous Chorus 2 This is love, this is murderous Unpredictability This is love, this murderous Volatility This is love, this is murderous Set me free, lock me up This is love, this is murderous Written by B.

I Will Bear Witness
Verse 1 If I'm despondent Then I will know That I should become involved in my life Staring blankly into space Will not get me to a better place Action is stronger than will When I'm indifferent to my well-being Self-love will be my number one priority Not wanting to wake up Each time I go to sleep Will only make me become moodier Negativity is destructive Verse 2 If anger is building up inside of me I will let it out creatively Rage is a counter-productive force Eventually it leads to remorse Bridge Affirmation is part of honesty Bravery is confronting scarcity Detachment yearns for a bond Understanding eliminates confusion Revelation seizes attention Maturity equates to growth Chorus 1 I was born with sight But was blind to the essence of me I will bear witness To all things which form my identity Chorus 2 I was born with sight But was blind to reality around me I will bear witness To all things which form my identity Chorus 3 Born with sight is being fortunate A lack of vision leads to blindness I will bear witness To all things which form my identity Written by B.

A Thousand Benjamins
Verse 1 For the first time, I love someone I never thought it was possible That person does not love me back But I'm just fine with that The only thing that bothers me Is that he's with somebody else I'm no longer the centre of his attention I have become his former lover I desperately want to be with him Be close to him in every sense of the word Verse 2 I deeply care about the man Whom I fell for I love him more than I love myself He became my world, my home The only part of him which I have are memories Every little detail embedded within my heart, my mind Bridge Mmmmm, ooohhh, mmmmmm Shy bordering on anti-social Longing for conversation Independent bordering on selfishness Wanting a friend or two Unrealistic views bordering on insanity Needing to change my luck Inaction bordering on indifference Refusing to harm myself Mmmmm, mmmmm Chorus 1 Ecstatically happy, then depressingly sad Joyful and disappointed Delightfully surprised, then stunningly upset Amazed and angry Chorus 2 Genuinely optimistic, then distressingly apprehensive Proud and confused Wonderfully interested, then violently annoyed Caring and insensitive Optimistic, apprehensive - a thousand Benjamins, a thousand Benjamins Interested, annoyed - a thousand Benjamins, a thousand Benjamins Happy, sad - a thousand Benjamins, a thousand Benjamins Amazed, angry - a thousand Benjamins, a thousand Benjamins Written by B.

Brown
Verse 1 Brown is the colour of my skin Soft and smooth from head to toe Brown is rich and creamy Full of life in its essence It comes in a multitude of shades Ranging from light to dark No other colour comes close To eclipsing its power There's a hidden curiosity It's frequently unspoken But when discussion begins Raised eyebrows and open mouths soon follow Brown's lure is insatiable It'll bring you to the point of no return Verse 2 Brown are the colour of my eyes Deep and mysterious Brown is rich and golden At the centre of attention There's an ancient affirmation It's appearance is youthful looking Brown's lure is insatiable You'll want to have every part of it Once you gain experience Things will never be the same Chorus 1 Brown's capabilities are far-reaching and long lasting Its richness is undeniable Complex to the core Brown's vibrancy shines right through Its richness is captivating Sensual to the core Brown's vibrancy shines right through I love brown, I love myself Chorus 2 Brown's capabilities are far-reaching and long lasting Its richness is undeniable Complex to the core Brown's vibrancy shines right through Its richness is captivating Sensual to the core Brown's vibrancy shines right through I love brown, I love myself It encompasses pure beauty I love brown more than anything else Oh what a feeling Written by B.

Many Thousands Gone
Verse 1 Her bluest eye is darker than tar Once captivating, now sullen and cold Long, golden hair is frizzled and burnt Lips are cracked, body is dry and rough She is dangerously shy Coming back to herself will be no small feat Lost doesn't even begin to describe her state of mind Fixing what's broken seems to be impossible Verse 2 His heart is colder than ice Once full of warmth, now weak and shallow Confidence morphed into arrogance Disdain for others grows with each passing day Their sentience no longer remains It's the difference between living and being alive These new times are nothing more than a shill for death Years will seem to pass within seconds Chorus 1 Identities are like hurricanes When emotional roller coasters hit shore They can be swept away Truth is like a tornado Sometimes unexpected but powerful Many survive Unfortunately, many thousands gone Chorus 2 Life is like a glass of water With complexities ranging from being half full To being half empty Truth is like a tornado Sometimes unexpected but powerful Many survive Unfortunately, many thousands gone Written by B.

Drowning Cupid
Verse 1 I don't need love No no no no no I do not need love What it gave to me was deep sadness I don't want kisses No no no no no I do not want kisses It will lead to falling for someone Just leave me to myself Yes yes yes yes yes Being alone is nothing new to me They'll be no confessions of hearts skipping beats And no places for lovers to meet What I do won't be found out by anyone Verse 2 I don't need love No no no no no I do not want to experience emotional turmoil again I don't want sweet nothings No no no no no I do not want sweet nothings to be whispered into my ears To each his own Yes yes yes yes yes That is what I believe I refuse to live by any other standard Souls uniting are just fantasies Hoping that it'll happen makes you naive I made a promise not to let myself down Verse 3 My sense of self was manipulated Who I tried to be Was weaker than who I was My self-respect shrivelled up like burning paper Slowly I regained strength I knew that battling forces beyond my control Would be arduous and time consuming Reclaiming what's left of me begins with drowning cupid This will be my sweet victory Chorus I'm drowning cupid He won't fly He will no longer shout his harts at me I'm drowning cupid He'll be gone Then I will have peace of mind Drowning cupid is the only way for me to live Written by B.

I Like Me!
Verse 1 I may not be perfect I've made a few mistakes I do have some regrets But my life hasn't been a waste Being as inquisitive as I am Has been a good thing Other times it's been bad I'm a picky person when it's time to make my mind up I become indecisive Verse 2 I'm not always nice Not always honest I don't have any friends But I do have acquaintances I'm a stutterer, a former nail-bitter I'm a sinner, a former church attendant I have aspirations but I procrastinate Even though I've had crushes Never been on a date Verse 3 Sometimes I'm ungrateful Other times I'm selfish I focus more on what I want Instead of appreciating what I have When I'm angry, I can resort to revenge I've thought of killing myself But I chose to live my life Chorus 1 With all my faults - I like me! I'm the only person I want to be With all my good qualities - I like me! I won't change for anyone Because I like me! I like me! Chorus 2 With all my faults - I like me!

The Suicidal Mind
Verse 1 I don't care about anyone Don't even care about myself Spent a lot of time on my own Thought about the hardships and pain I've endured Many of the wounds still hurt till this day I'd do anything to make them go away My life is a nightmare that frightens me And I feel like I'm trapped in it Verse 2 Lecturing and finger pointing will not change how I feel Don't want advice, don't want a friend Got more than I can take going on in my end By the second I lose energy I have no strength to fight all that I'm feeling I've always been my own worst enemy I'm going to lose the war against myself Bridge I'm not being impulsive Thought about it endlessly This is the way it has to be And it will be done by me Chorus 1 Bad memories resurface Then I completely shut down Killing myself is natural, so I'll do it Chorus 2 Bad memories resurface Then I completely shut down Killing myself is rational, so I'll do it Bad memories resurface The voice within me speaks louder Killing myself is rational, so I'll do it Written by B.

Verse 1 Meet the new boss, same as the old boss The more things change The more confused we become We settled for inferiority Knowing that was the worst choice we could make The medicine man prescribes poison to us Yet we fail to understand why we always get sick Popping pills like candy is today's cure But is your choice of flavour really your prerogative? Verse 2 The ship which we are on is slowly sinking And the precarious situation we have places ourselves in Has more holes than a golf course What we all need to do Is get down on our knees and pray Our safe houses and panic rooms Will crumble to the ground If we don't open our eyes soon Will choosing to be blind save us from witnessing catastrophe? Bridge What currency will you invest in? What method of diversification will you employ? Is your portfolio a strong one? Are your assets your liabilities? Which bank will maintain all your holdings? Will my funds ever be depleted? Insider trading is to be welcomed Chorus You don't know, you don't know what you're talking about Don't tell me what to do You're no bigger than me You don't know, you don't know what you're talking about You are not my saviour I'll never believe in you Written by B.

Murder of Angels
Verse 1 Little ones, do not fear For I am here to comfort you I bring no harm or sorrow Let me lead you to your falls Young boy, listen to me I'll play with you if you promise to share Maybe we can become friends Then I'll take your toys away from you Verse 2 Young lady, don't you hurt yourself For you are filled with so much worth Boys will come and boys will go And when they do, you will be used up Do whatever you want Or whomever for that matter Future generations will look up to you as a role model Verse 3 This is such a heinous crime The murder of angels Don't call the cop; ignore the press Let us do what we do best Innocence will turn to guilt Trust into deception Your souls will rot to the core We'll never stop because we want more Chorus 1 Children close your eyes now You have witnessed the murder of angels Fathers you must disappear You are partly to blame for our transgressions Daughters cry your hearts out for you have been violated Mothers were oblivious To what occurred inside their homes Sons let your rage run wild It's the emotion you were taught to express Chorus 2 All my children run away You have witnessed the murder of angels Old men, you should die You are to blame for our transgressions Ladies, beg, borrow and steal For you have been violated Teachers were despondent To what occurred inside of their classrooms Lovers let your passion run wild We're no different than our fellow mammals There's nothing to be ashamed of Just do whatever comes naturally Chorus 3 Children close your eyes now (murder of angels) Fathers you must disappear (murder of angels) Daughters cry your hearts out (murder of angels) Mothers were oblivious (murder of angels) Sons let your rage run wild Written by B.

Hurt
Verse 1 I'm being honest when I say that I don't like people Telling you that I hate them is not being dramatic I even go out of my way to avoid human beings Never been close to anyone and never want to Friends would be a burden Acquaintances would be time-consuming Keeping to myself allows me to avoid their drama Verse 2 Their general attitude just pisses me off Their simple mindedness has always been alarming They are easily manipulated, easily controlled If I ruled the world I'd be the only one living in it Just take a look around And you will find nothing but madness This non-existence of ours is truly pathetic Bridge I'm not exaggerating, I'm not telling any lies This is how people are They have always been this way This frustration of mine is slowly taking my life away The human race is to blame What a darn shame Chorus Bash their heads in Spit inside their mouths Kick em in the balls Hurt them any way you can Cut their breasts out Poke them in the eye Punch em in the gut Hurt them any way you can Written by B.

Eyes
Verse 1 I saw you but you looked away from me I am not blind and neither are you Then why do I feel like I have poor vision? Maybe it's because I was blind-sided by reality You let me into your home Eventually into your bed I foolishly believed that I was a part of your life Verse 2 Some say that eyes are windows to one's soul If that is true, then yours are dark and cold They appeared to be warm and inviting Now I see them as your tools of deception I was starting to give you all of me Instead, you took away what we could have been Verse 3 Oh, poor pitiful me I was taken for a ride, then cast out to sea You appointed yourself as my master and commander Directing me through some of my highs and lows When the waters were still Moments with you were refreshingly enjoyable But when the waters rose Our eyes were at different levels Chorus My eyes saw you as a decent person As a thoughtful and caring man I assumed your eyes saw me as an attractive person As an inquisitive and open minded dude Now my eyes see you as a shallow person As a disrespectful and insensitive jerk Written by B.

Same Time, Next Year
Verse 1 Couldn't believe the news When I heard it at first You left me, you're dating a new friend of mine What's worst? I tried to convince myself that it wasn't true You and I were in the early stages of something new Hanging out, eating and sleeping at your place Loved it when I would just stare at your face Your arms around me at different times of the day How I miss that, you'll never know Because I won't say Verse 2 More soft spoken is what I am Holding my head lower is what I do Signs which indicate your love for me Are what I search for, are what I think of More cautious of who I speak to Acting mute when it's necessary Solutions that solve some of my dilemmas Are what I search for, are what I think of I feel insecure and inadequate in many ways Verse 3 The downtown core of the city Reminds me so much of you Shorts, bicycles, cell phones and Cadillacs Now and again, I walk by your apartment building I look at floor six, wondering what you're up to How I miss the moments which quickly passed us by Reminiscing about them will lead me to cry Chorus 1 By this time next year I will be alone Whenever I was with you I felt at home Now I'm riding high on a tidal wave of emotions Same time, next year I'll be drowning in the memory of us Chorus 2 By this time next year I will be alone Whenever I was with you I felt at home Now I'm riding high on a tidal wave of emotions Same time, next year I'll be drowning in the memory of us Desperately wanting a sense of clarity Is what I'll be doing same time, next year Written by B.

Why Can't We Talk?
Verse 1 When I called your house, you hung up the phone At the sound of my voice The way you are acting towards me causes me to wonder Did I do something wrong? Did I say anything incorrect? Just tell me what is really going on I need to know Verse 2 We spent countless moments together Those were the joyful days I never expected a sad outcome Not even a bizarre one like this I think I better call two professionals for help It seems like Mulder and Scully are good FBI agents They can solve this case Verse 3 The least you could do is come up to me And give me an honest answer Tell me why you choose not to speak to me Do you feel that I am a threat to you Or are you acting out of jealousy? I guess I will never know the real reason Unless you tell me Chorus Why can't we talk anymore?

You know I need a lot of privacy I'm trying to find who I really am on the inside I can't go about with my business You're constantly getting in my way Verse 3 I know what I am doing And I won't have any future regrets Being along doesn't scare me Because I have the strength to live through it You have to leave So I can be on my own If you're still trying to pull me backyards Just know you are no longer my friend Bridge This is my final choice I'm not going back on my word If you'll only listen Maybe you will see why this is so important to me Chorus Please go away Leave me in solitude Why won't you respect my decision I have made? I don't want you around me I've never forced anything upon you in my life So why can't you do the same for me? Just leave me alone I need space Written by B.

One Long Year
Verse 1 There's no answers to any of my questions But I keep asking the same ones Time's moving slow Everything is the same Nothing has changed I'm still locked inside Verse 2 What's the point of wishing? If none of your dreams come true It's just a waste of time I'll try doing something else It's the first of June But January seems far away I'm very anxious I'm looking for a way out Chorus 1 Why has this been a very long year? I've been struggling to get myself on the right track I'm hoping it'll come to an end I want to venture out into the world Chorus 2 Why has this been a very long year? I've been struggling to become a stronger person All the memories are tearing me apart I have to leave the past behind Chorus 3 Why has this been a very long year? I've been trying to hide myself from all the pain There are many words that are left unspoken I don't have an ounce of courage in me Chorus 4 Why has this been a very long year? I have done nothing to deserve this I tried to change who I really was But now there's smoke surrounding me Written by B. (Saturday, January 20, 2001) Copyright 2001 |
Ever Since
Verse 1 The memory of that cold December morning is fresh in my mind It's as though it only happened yesterday A voice inside my head said "You're going too far" But I did not pay attention Sometimes when I look back I wish I hadn't given you the letter Verse 2 I must admit that I ignored all the hints that were dropped They all suggested that I could never be with you Maybe I was afraid of reality Because you would be out of my grasp A slap across my face brought my senses back And I felt misled Bridge 1 I wanted to be the only person you thought of I though that we could start a relationship I was trying real hard to impress you The need to be close to you kept increasing Bridge 2 I was attracted to everything about you Why did you have to say all those things you said? They should have been words left unspoken Chorus Ever since you told me that you and I were both different I've been trying to get you out of my mind But it's not as easy as I thought Ever since you told me there are boundaries that I cannot cross I've been wishing to change the way you are Only because I want you to be more like me Written by B.

I Quit
Verse 1 I'll take time off from writing And I won't read as much I won't have to think as hard Because things will be simpler I'm not looking for an easy way out I'm just expanding my horizons I know that I can do better than this All I have to do is try Verse 2 This is a decision that I'm comfortable with I have thought it through I didn't go rushing into it Its time for me to relax I haven't sat down in such a long time I'm running out of breath everyday Because I'm never standing still Verse 3 I'm entering a new phase in my life today I must admit that I'm scared But that's the price you pay Nothing or no one is going to hold me back I know there's opportunities out there I really owe this to myself Bridge 1 So I quit! Tell the boss I won't be coming back I gave my two weeks notice I'm leaving everything behind I've gained experience I've worked from nine to nine I'm out of energy My health is decreasing I've done what I came to do And I gave it my all If the telephone rings I won't be answering the call Bridge 2 Because I quit Tell the boss I won't be coming back Chorus So I quit! Tell the boss I won't be coming back I gave my two weeks notice Written by B. (Monday, January 15, 2001) Copyright 2001 |
The Closer You Get
Verse 1 I am beginning to realize that you have cast some kind of spell over me Every single time you approach me I don't know what to do I'm scared that I'll do something foolish Bridge 1 It seems to me that you've been dropping hints Only for me to stumble upon At first I thought it was all in my head And just your way of being friendly Verse 2 I just don't know what to expect You could be doing something without me knowing about it You could really help me out by giving signals to me Letting me know that you are about to come my way Bridge 2 I know that I'm not overreacting Your presence is becoming more and more stressful I need to take a couple of steps back If not, I will surely lose my cool Verse 3 Is this an infatuation that you have for me Or is this the real deal? From now on I will keep my guard up So I can remain focused on all my surroundings Bridge 3 I always feel the need to pull away Whenever you give your hand for me to shake I sense that you know something is wrong I just can't handle the fact that you've interested in me Chorus The closer you get, my heart beats faster And my palms begin to sweat The closer you get, my mind starts to spin And when we speak, my words are slurred Written by B.

With Secrets To Keep
Verse 1 I cannot stay here Because there's no space to breathe You keep asking questions I won't answer Why won't you give it a rest? You never respect my wishes My personal life is none of your business Verse 2 I feel much safer And for that I have less worries I have protection that gets me through each day I try to stay focused I don't want anything to erupt But sometimes I'm afraid I draw too much attention Bridge I'm taking a risk There's a chance that I'll get trapped I'm just living the way that I feel is best I'll stay a step ahead That's the choice I've made I'm more confident than before Chorus I will do what I have to do I will say what I need to say There's no way for me to be real With secrets to keep But I'm still alive I use them because they shield me Without them I know that I would be exposed To prevent myself from being knocked down I'll be more stable with secrets to keep Written by B.

To Get To You
Verse 1 Sometimes I feel that I will be lost without you That's why I always dread the thought of you leaving me Is this a game that you and I have been unconsciously playing? Being inconsiderate of the others' feelings While we score points based on the impact it creates Verse 2 Do you ever feel that you will be lost without me? Do you think that you will be trapped And not know when to ask for help? I know that I am to blame for putting al those tears in your eyes Some say that forgiveness is the key To solving most of the problems one might face Verse 3 Sometimes you and I feel helpless even when we're together It might sound strange But it's absolutely true We really don't accomplish anything at all I think it's too early to throw the towel in But I'm not sure if working things out will be worthwhile for us in the end Chorus 1 Tell me what I should do So I can get to you I do not like the fact that we're falling apart Now's the time to take serious action And try to mend the broken pieces I said I'd be there till the end That's my promise to you I have no intentions of changing my mind As I stand before you today I will swear to do the best that I can Chorus 2 I'll tell you what to do So you can get to me You said you don't like the fact that we're falling apart Now's the time to turn things around And try to build a relationship You said that you'd be there for me That was the promise you made Tell me if you're going to change your mind As you stand before me today Swear to me that you'll do the best that you can Written by B.

I Miss You, I Miss You
Verse 1 You haven't the slightest clue as to what is going on But I won't hold it against you Because you're not here I think I'm losing my mind And I need reassurance that you will be with me soon I can't take it anymore Verse 2 I wish that I could tell you how I truly feel Maybe you'd catch the next train home And run into my arms again I just hope that you are safe Because I don't know what I would really do If I ever found out I lost you Bridge The day that you arrive will be the day I have been waiting for I do not know if I could hold on forever Chorus 1 I miss you, I miss you You've been gone for such a very long time Loneliness hurts I miss you, I miss you Waiting only makes things harder for me But what else can I do? Please return to me Chorus 2 I miss you, I miss you I want to see your face again Nothing will break me off from you Nobody will I'll try to be strong I'll be dreaming of you Written by B.

We Can't Be Stopped
Verse 1 We're gonna throw you to the ground We're gonna poke you with needles We're gonna insult you We're gonna slap you around Bridge 1 We're gonna scratch your skin Your wounds will be exposed Then we'll pour boiling water all over you Verse 2 We're gonna kick you in the ribs We're gonna pinch you all over We're gonna hit you on the head We're gonna pull your hairs out Bridge 2 We're gonna peel your skin off You'll be exposed to infections Then we'll leave you all alone to suffer Verse 3 We're gonna mess with your mind We will deceive and confuse you We will decide your fate We're gonna burn your skin Because we are unstoppable Because we are invincible Because we are all powerful Chorus 1 We're gonna inflict pain on you And there is nothing that you can do To prevent the abuse you'll endure Because we're all powerful Chorus 2 We're gonna inflict pain on you And there is nothing that you can do To prevent us from torturing you Because we're all powerful Chorus 3 We're gonna inflict pain on you And there is nothing that you can do To prevent the abuse you'll endure To prevent us from torturing you Written by B.

Different Cars And Trains
Verse 1 You and I have been travelling On different cars and different trains I see your face starring back at me The look in your eyes says That you no longer love me We have drifted apart We are living separate lives I don't have the strength to break up with you Verse 2 You are a roller-coaster ride Every time I'm with you I wear a seatbelt Sometimes you race by me faster than a speeding train If I knew how to slow you down I would have done it a long time ago We have drifted apart We are in separate worlds I don't have the strength to let you go Bridge The road that I'm on leads me further away From the life I want I'm not sure if I'll ever be free from you Chorus When I turn left You instantly go right When I am up You suddenly drop down I have tried to meet you wherever you are But you go places that I'm unfamiliar with Written by B.

Sad Songs For Dirty Lovers
Verse 1 It was a blind date but he was very comfortable He wasn't nervous; he didn't break out in a sweat He felt like he was a lucky man His date showed up right on time Sparks flew immediately Their chemistry was bouncing off the Richter scale Verse 2 When he took her home, she invited him in They only had one thing on their minds And they did not waste any time She unbuttoned his shirt He took her shoes off Then carried her to the bedroom They made love passionately Kissed each other goodnight The next day, he didn't call her Bridge He has been avoiding her since that night And she doesn't know why She thinks that she is to blame And only he can take away her heartache Chorus Sad songs for dirty lovers Are being played on the radio The whole show is dedicated to their sorrow They did many bad things Their hearts have been broken Not they're home alone with no place to go Written by B.

Divided We Stand
Verse 1 I always thought our relationship Was built on a strong foundation A foundation that consisted of openness and love That was certainly an inaccurate description of it I was blind to see what was really going on Verse 2 Bitterness is the underlying feeling I have Anger is what I express to you when I'm pissed off Conversations we have always involve raised voices Sometimes I would slam the door as I leave the room Verse 3 We compromise one percent of the time The other ninety-nine percent we don't see eye to eye There are many times when I hurt you intentionally I want to get back at you I want you to feel the pain I'm feeling Chorus Divided we stand There are many miles between us The space continues to grow We have ran out of solutions You are a stranger to me now I used to know who you were We used to be together as one Written by B.

Mouthful of Love
Verse 1 I remember the days when my body was empty It was like a broken down refrigerator Anything places inside of it would become rotten I was losing a lot of weight As a result, I was getting weaker Getting out of bed was such a struggle From time to time, I would collapse from dehydration Since you met me and came into my life I have been gaining strength Looking back at myself, I cannot believe that I lived that way Verse 2 Your generosity is like breakfast It provides me with energy I am able to share with others And because of that, I realize that many people were just like me What they needed was a home cooked meal Whatever they ate was not good enough And if no one showed that they cared They would feel more alone Bridge Your compassion is like dinner It gives me a sense of belonging I am able to provide empathy I am able to be more understanding All the love that you have shown to me Fuels me up with the desire to live every day You saved my life, I'm thanking you for that I will use what I learned to save someone else Chorus I am chewing on a mouthful of love It's the best kind I've ever tasted I was starving for affection You have satisfied my hunger I am chewing on a mouthful of love I never knew it could be this fulfilling My stomach was always growling It no longer does because you fed me Written by B.
