I Am No Poet

i'm a man with no chance
to know how to seize the day
and i wish someday i'll find out my directions
to run in another way
I keep the strengths right in my heart,
round and round you dance all around me
i'm a man with no sense
to care about the ones that you lost
cause i'm a simple guy who's lost all inspiration
forever incomplete
i'm a man with no plan
to save the world that you love,
and what you cherish in all that imperfection,
will vanish with your own bomb...
I keep the strengths right in my heart,
round and round they dance all around me
i left my fears so far apart
one by one they fall behind me

The Loved And Feared

I've not always believed in you
do you want me to be myself or somebody else
the picture doesn't even seem right before my eyes
and I want the truth
give me a chance to think to figure out, who am I
give me a chance to win to figure out, who am I
I've not always believed in me
do I have to get rid of everything in my life
the loved and feared, the loathed and dreamed erasing all the scars
will I find the truth
give me a chance in a fresh new start
to write down a whole new tale free from regrets
well i'm not givin'up on me, we won't give up on us
by bailing out our hopes on you
give us a chance to think to figure out, who we are
give us a chance to win to figure out, who we are

Two Ways Of Getting Home

do I remember
the life in front of me
those bad choices to get the answers
all that make them impossible to reach
so do me a favor cause you do remember
just tell me how did i end up in here
cause all i know is that i was not alone
please, just give me back my home
would you please, just give me back my home
do you remember, what's that supposed to mean
all those good things you do to balance
this karma shit believing that it's real
so you cross your fingers
stop being a sinner
forget it we'll never know why we're here
but you know for sure
that you won't be all alone
please, just give me back my home
would you please, just give me back my home

Who Knows

you know, how hard this is to fill the empty
and you know how hard you try but never succeed
alone, you fall into some crap to escape
and i know i tried enough i swear that never ends
who knows
if loving me is wrong, goddamn you do it right
cause everything i do is wrong, but by god i do it right
hello, aren't you tired of trying to love me
god knows, that everything from me ain't worth shit
so go on, and you'll find out, lost times don't get back
we'll have conversations about those regrets that you have
who knows
if loving me is wrong, goddamn you do it right
cause everything i do is wrong, but by god i do it right

If My Heart
04:07

When I sin
to all of you
it's just a bad
a bad disguise
But when I sing
in front of you
I just give back
a part of my life
but if my heart could dig
a hole that fits all my thoughts, all my lies,
my broken promises.
oh my Lord, help me
When I sin
to all of you
it's just a bad
a bad disguise
And I'll scream
to get to you
and take back my life
my hopes and my heart
But when i wrote
this song for you
I dreamed that I
washed all of my doubts
If my heart could dig
a hole that fits all my thoughts all my lies
my broken promises
oh my Lord, help me
