Child Soldier
Child soldiers not much older than the kids in the park playing on the swings.
What about the children? How are they supposed to cope?
Well I guess by selling the last bit of their hope.
I’m Gonna Ride
With every breath I take I’ll push as hard as I can take.
With every beat of my heart I’ll take a breath and stand apart.
Someone New
You shoulda stayed and tried to talk it thru.
Now you’re with someone new.
I passed you on the street today. You smiled at me and you looked away.
Cloudy Skies
Blink twice, picked up another vice.
Now that demon got me reelin’.
So I clown my way to another day.
Why?
I said “Why?.
Is there so much hurt in this world?”
Every night when I get ready for bed I can’t believe the shit runnin’ through my head
You’re Still Cool
I put my hand in my pocket
Take out this ring and hock it
I remember when I got it - It meant the world to me
I guess it wasn't meant to be.
