Verse 1

The earth opened up under his feet
And his heart sank
As he knew what was yet to come
He looked down to his side

Knelt on one knee
And  wiped the tears from his
daughters eyes

Chorus

As they go
In search for higher ground
They see the skyline
It starts to fade away
Just like their faith
They’ll never see again

Verse 2

Get closer to their home
No sign of it at all
Their village swept away
Ten thousand lost at sea

As The Ocean Ate The Land

Verse

Here I am again
Mondays always end up the same
I swore I would change
But here I am

I’m on the beer again
Need to wake up in the am
I swore I would change
But here I am 

Chorus

Sleeping on your floor
I know I could be better
So sick of my own excuses but I won’t change
And I’ll do it all again


A Shit Leopard Can't Change Its Spots

Verse

You want a war I’ll give you one
I was never the type to turn and run
And while you’re selling lies, stealing my pride,
The battle cries begun.

Chorus
	
I’m done pretending you’ve won,
So done thinking that I’m wrong,
I see you now for what you are.
You left me broken and bruised,
Clawing my insides are the words you chose to use….
You lose.

Verse

A lie’s the truth when you’re around,
No questions asked, no secrets found.
As their silence begins, I’m through grieving
For someone I used to be.

Chorus x2
	
I’m done pretending you’ve won,
(I’m done playing your games)
So done thinking that I’m wrong,
I see you now for what you are.
You left me broken and bruised,
(you wont see me coming)
Clawing my insides are the words you chose to use….
You lose.

You lose

Verse 1

I’ve dug this hole all by myself
And I can’t seem to find the way out
Your innocent affectation seems true
But you’ve thrown the ladder just out of reach

Chorus

I’ll ask my questions now
Before the chance will go away
To find the truth
She’s lying
Don’t believe a word they say
Cause they just want you to believe
(Their shit)
Leech on to her next victim

Verse 2

I’ve fallen for your shit again
(I gotta go, I gotta go, I gotta go)
Don’t waste my time with your excuses
(Gonna lie, gonna lie but I know)
I’ll give my warning just I like I got mine
Hope it gets to you in time
If you don’t I’ll light this smoke signal
It burns

Chorus

I’ll ask my questions now
Before the chance will go away
To find the truth
She’s lying
Don’t believe a word they say
Cause they just want you to believe
(Their shit)
Leech on to her next victim
(And bleed him fucking dry)
