I Understand

Fisrt Time

Walking all alone on a Saturday night
Bars just closed and you're feeling alright
Bumped into a man who said come this way
Take the last drag of your smoke and you say ok, it's OK
Going down an alley and out of sight
The moonlight  in the sky is the only light
You ask the man "hey what's your name?"
He says "don't bother I prefer to remain strange"

Then Darkness grows, you're  losing light
Uncontrolled, and out of sight 
Would they hear the scream, if you could make a sound
Your eyes close, asleep and sound

You wake up in your bed on a Sunday morn
Your head is pounding and you're feeling worn
Can't remember the last thing that you did 
Or how you got home and in your bed
Look at your phone to see who you called
You called your ex and you called your mom
Your head is pounding and you feel like death
And You vow never to drink again

Then Darkness grows, you're losing light
Uncontrolled, and out of sight 
Would they hear the scream, if you could make a sound
Your eyes close, asleep and sound

Then Darkness grows, you're losing light
Uncontrolled, and out of sight 
Would they hear the scream, if you could make a sound
Your eyes close, asleep and sound

Unknown Road

Asleep and Sound

Bags are packed, you got nowhere to go, you hop on a bus to mexico
it’s better than being alone
Holding back tears, fighting off fears, concentrating on all the years, 
Where you were lost among shadows

Drinks were had and dreams were made, I could have sworn you never aged, 
The years flew by all the same
Thoughts so hard about coming back, one more cerveza, then you’d pack
Coming home means giving up everything

And no one likes throwing it all away (He said)
No one likes throwing it all away

On the road for reasons unknown
learning life along the way
Sharing stories with other forgotten souls
Trying to find light in the day


Roaming ’round, ghosts in your backpack, trying hard not to look back
He stares up at the sky and says
God is there any way I can stay, I feel at home, just let me stay
If I leave, things won’t be the same


Lord knows I don’t want to change (he says)
Lord knows I don’t want to change. 

On the road for reasons unknown
learning life along the way
Sharing stories with other forgotten souls
Trying to find light in the day

On the road for reasons unknown
learning life along the way
Sharing stories with other forgotten souls
Trying to find light in the day
