You told me there'd never be
Nobody else but me
Oh baby how you cared
You, know that I would be true
That darling I love you
Oh you were all I needed

You can tell, what she's thinkng
By the way that she walks
And the look she's displaying
It's dismaying
She drives me wild....

Now my search in life is through
Cause now baby I found you
And thats all that I'll be needin

Cause now baby I found you
And thats all that I'll be needin
Oh wow oh oh oh wow oh

I Will Be Free ©Gary Lalin 2-13-07 ASCAP

Studio Track Written, Performed and Recorded by Gary "Slammer" Lalin 

The time that ticks does slowly pass
I do not care if you don't ask
Upon the sky I gaze and stare
because my body's all thats there
My thoughts they wander as I please
no matter what you think you see
In my mind ....I will be free

You might think you understand
But I don't care if you can
I close my eyes and suddenly
I make you simply go away
You can think what you want of me
no matter what you think you see
In my mind ....I will be free

Can't hold me down
Just let me be
No matter what
I will be free ... Scream
Lead Break: 4 bars

You might think you understand
But I don't really give a dam.
I close my eyes and suddenly
I make you simply go away
You can think what you want of me
No matter what you think you see
In my mind ....I will be free
I will be free...

Written, Performed and Recorded by Gary "Slammer" Lalin B side of Garage Gods 45 from Lost In Tyme Records 

Can't you see ...are you so blind 
If you would just  open your eyes 
she doesn't seem to give you her time 
or could it be that she's changed her mind 

She don't care like she did before.... 
Cause SHE DON'T LOVE YOU ANYMORE 

If you would look you'd see the signs
but you might not like what you find
she's doing stuff she's trying to hide
you found out too late now its no use to cry 

She don't care like she did before.... 
Cause SHE DON'T LOVE YOU ANYMORE 
LEAD BREAK 

B SECTION 

You can't believe this could happen to you 
how could you be such a fool

She’s not interested in you 
She don't care like she did before.... 
Cause SHE DON'T LOVE YOU ANYMORE

60's Style Garage Psych-Pop written, performed, & recorded by Gary "Slammer" Lalin as a studio work in 2008 but never released. Artwork by the ever brilliant cartoonist Merinuk.


When I was born was not of my choosing
The stars aligned Imprinting the past into my mind

Ever since I was a child I knew deep inside
That somehow I had turned out different

Though I tried to conform to societies norms
No matter how hard i would try

I was lost in tyme, lost in tyme, Lost in tyme

Throughout my life I've lived, In frustration
knowing that I was not From this generation 

Others can not relate to my peculiar taste
I'm an old soul, in a modern world

Am I from a outer space or just born out of place
The past in the present I must Find

I'm Lost in Tyme, Lost in Tyme, Lost in Tyme 

When will my Future be what is my destiny
I don't know which path will decide

Am I from a outer space or just born out of place
The past is the place I must Find

I'm Lost in Tyme, Lost in Tyme Lost in Tyme

Lost In Tyme ..................  PDX 08

No matter how much you give to me
Its not enough to fill my needs

Your the food upon I feed
