I could tell when you looked at me
ego dropped 
my heart lifted a notch

i could feel my pain subdue
as i thought 
constantly on you

I could see you walking through
to me
just a dream

I could feel your heart beat
with the sea
see my defeat

I'm cashing in
from my fears
my sin

and my heart won't stop
thinking
the thought of you

a broken heart in a bag of sunshine
made me a man
tonight

a woman's love gone
but i got diamonds 
in the rough

a brokedown car
but there's a lot 
for me to see here

a dead light
don't shine
but i see the sun

and my heart won't stop
thinking
the thought of you

a broken heart in a bag of sunshine
made me a man


Bag of Sunshine

Doubt is
Never asking you
Doubt is
What's she gonna do
Doubt is
Why do i wonder
Doubt is
Only ponder

Cause I'm not alone
Doubt is here
I'm going home
To live in fear

Doubt is
Lying
Doubt is
Not trying
Doubt is
Not looking to
Doubt is
You see right through

Cause I'm not alone
Doubt is here
I'm going home
To live in fear


Doubt Is

Going On

if i had a million hours
then id spend em worryin bout you
cuz beggars cant be choosers 
and we still got work ta do

you think you've got it all 
in your palm
then it's gone

i can't begin to count the times
you were wrong

if i spent time thinking bout solution
i'd be wrong
cuz i'd wallow and i'd waste my time
all day long

cuz you're gone gone gone
don't got to worry 
no more

and i can't begin to count the times
you were wrong

and i don't wonder why you can't see

went to the police station
got a warrant for my own arrest
Im too damn dangerous 
and i don't trust you yet

your nose getting longer
but your "fables" are true
you can't see me and 
can't see you

i can't begin to count the times
you did me wrong

Get Me Out Of Here

Just an idea for a song... pretty cool i guess

Idea

Sellin Out

an old man from texas
he got caught up in the scen
when he paid a visit to 
the town of new orleans

She sat on the steps
with flowers in her hair
the old man stopped 
and he just stared

she stood up 
walked away fast
that old man 
just would not rest till he

found her again
standing on a rock
singing these words
the old man was shocked

No old man from texas
gonna get the time of day
cause it's just gonna cause 
you fright 

her eyes lit up
red as can be
she's the she devil
but she don't know me

and she took a step
to that poor old man
gave him some simple
voodoo in a can

she said, drink it up johnny
if you think you're a man
just throw it back
and leave this land 

cause baby 

No old man from texas
gonna get the time of day
cause it's just gonna cause 
you fright
