I know you’re down, I can see it now
You don’t have to try to be so strong, just be yourself
We have a lot in common, I think I understand
Some days are darker than others and we just don’t know why
I want you to know I love you more than life
You can talk to me, please talk to me
I want you to know that the world needs you around
Never go away, please stay…and talk to me
Tell me when you’re down, I know it isn’t easy to do
Sometimes it’s hard to say it, the true feelings don’t always come through
I’ll always be there for you, of that you can be sure
If you wanna share with me, I’m right outside your door

Down
03:39

I'm going down.
I'm going down for the next two weeks.
I'm going down.
I'll be on the couch if you need me, if you need me.
I can't feel my arms.
I can't make a fist and my ankles are stumps.
I'm going down.
Why can't I wake up and be me, and be me?
Friday night I was playing some cards and I felt alright.
Friday night I didn't know what the hours would bring me.
They'd sting me.
Saturday was alright in the morning.
The day goes on and I started to die.
How would I know I'd be down with the sickness.
No one could tell me the reason why.
I'm going down.
I'm going down for the next three weeks.
I'm going down.
I'll be on the couch if you need me, if you need me.

Sometimes my candle burns at both ends
Most days my mind sufficiently bends
At night I find some peace in my head
...Then I'll carry the weight up to bed
I start the day, start the day on the straight and narrow
Then I fall of the rails...
I try to turn, try to turn, but its all too narrow
Then it falls off the rails
Some days, its hard to live in my skin
But I've learned about the shape that I'm in
It comes and it goes, but mostly it stays
Just out of sight enough, you can't call me crazed
I walk the path, do as told like a good boy should
Then I walk towards the dark
I fight it off, use my tools, practice good behavior
Then I drown in the dark
They say that life is too short
So get on, or you'll miss the boat
Yes I know our lives will be short
But people don't really change
They say that life is too short
So climb in or you'll miss the boat
I'll ride along and I'll play your game
But I won't really change....
Some day I'll find my way to the light
I'll fill my cup and my life will be right
Till then, I'll work myself to the bone
Cause I don't wanna end up alone.
I'll take the pills, talk it out
Share my thoughts and feelings
You'll hardly know who I am
Communicate, don't hesitate to talk out our feelings
You'll hardly know who I am.

Chicago Sidewalk
06:45
|
|||
|
It's Monday
I walk down this same sidewalk every day
Every day I see the man sitting by the tree
Please help me, please help my family
He says this while he looks down at his phone
And smokes his cigarette
It's Tuesday
The man is sitting by the tree
His dog is with him on this day
Sometimes ol' faithful helps him beg
With a sign, he asks for help
While smoking his cigarette and
Staring down at his new phone
Where did he get that phone?
How can he afford those smokes?
Why does he have better shoes than me?
It's Wednesday
The man is kneeling by the tree
Today the dog is hungry too
With a sign he asks for help
But the sign doesn't cover his new shoes
New shoes
Were did he get that phone?
How can he afford those smokes?
Why does he have better shoes than me?
It's Thursday
The man is sleeping by the tree
Its getting colder out
The dog will help him stay warm
While smoking his cigarette and
Staring down at his new phone
Phone..........

Kill Me?
04:31
|
|||
|
Is it happening yet?
Is it enough?
Let's do it again
And make sure
My god the minutes feel like hours
I forgot what we were talking about
Are you gonna kill me?
Is it a test?
Is it a trick?
Am I all alone in this?
Why am i asking these questions?
I have never heard you laugh like that before
And though we're talking, should I stand up?
It's taking a very long time
To get the flashlight out of my bag
Or is it? I got it!
Looked at the stars and I lost my time
I saw the flames and I lost my mind
I'm so thirsty
I think the testing period has come to an end
Hey, let's play some cards
Gonna make up my own rules to my favorite game

Panic!
03:54
|
|||
|
Locked up inside, can't even go for a ride
The whole world has gone mad
There's no place to hide
Open your eyes, only panic you'll see
It spreads like wildfire
With all this technology
No we're not gonna die
Calm down, this too will pass by
Turn off the Tv and spend some time with your family
Stay at home like they say
Wash your hands keep the virus away
Stop the panic and fear and soon the coast will be clear
Friends losing money with every cancelled show
We're all doing what we can, but we're all running low
One last hurrah before we all disappear
One last small gathering and the gang's all here

It's a Saturday
Here I am again
Looking for something to do
Another Saturday
like any other day
But it get to spend it with you
Sunday comes along
Another week is gone
And we're still in here
The days are all the same
And they've all lost their name
My god an end must be near
There are times in your life
When you see things you've never seen
And you never want to see again
Look at your past mistakes
You have a choice to make
To be better than you've ever been
Another week is here
And its crystal clear
It's still gonna be a while
Don't let it make you mad
Don't let your good turn bad
Just take a breath and smile

Jerry Drove a Bus
05:03

He drove that bus like a champion
I was proud to ride along
He bragged me up to the school kids
as they hopped off, climbed on
One sunny day in my childhood
Stands out to me after all these years
Proud to be his grandson
We rode all day like the pioneers
Years went on and he slowly slipped away
Price of produce always top of mind
Misunderstood as long as I can remember
I still recall when Jerry was a bus driver
And I rode along
The phone rang on an August morning
The sun was shining just like that day
The old guy went peacefully in his chair
He took a walk in his sleep
For those of you that believe
He took the bus to heaven
He took the ride upstairs
He paid a visit to me late that night
We sat upon the couch and talked about the journey
Everything is ok, he said I'm ok now
Everything's ok now, you'll be fine, he said
And I moved along

Truth
05:17
|
|||
|
Truth be told, I'm a liar
Lie to myself all the time
My words could start a fire
Don't try to read my mind
Saying things when I don't know what to say
It makes no sense, but I'll say it anyway
Truth be told, I'm a liar
Fight with myself all the time
My heart gets caught in the crossfire
I love you so much it's a crime
Saying things when I don't know
Saying everything's ok
I'll write this same verse again tomorrow
I do it all the time
Phrases and words don't come easy to me
It might not be right, but I often agree
Agree with myself it's the easy way out
I don't want the uphill climb
Truth be told, I'm a liar
Lie to myself all the time
My thoughts could start a fire
I can't seem to speak my mind
Saying things when I don't know
Saying everything's ok
I'll write this same verse again tomorrow
I do it all the time
