Nutshell
--------
We chase misprinted lies
We face the path of time
And yet I fight
And yet I fight
This battle all alone
No one to cry to
No place to call home
Ooooh...Ooooh...
Ooooh...Ooooh...
My gift of self is raped
My privacy is raked
And yet I find
And yet I find
Repeating in my head
If I can't be my own
I'd feel better dead
Ooooh...Ooooh...
Ooooh...Ooooh...
I Stay Away
-----------
Yeah I want to travel south
This year
Aaah, Woah, Woah
Won't prevent safe passage here
Why you act crazy
Not an act maybe
So close a lady
Shifty eyes shady
Yeah, hey yeah, tears that soak
I am enlightened
Your weakness builds me
So someday you'll see
I stay away
Why you act so crazy
Not an act maybe
So close a lady
Shifty eyes shady
I stay away (4X)
No Excuses
----------
It's alright
There comes a time
Got no patience to search
For peace of mind
Layin' low
Want to take it slow
No more hiding or
Disguising truths I've sold
CHORUS
Everyday it's something
hits me all so cold
Find me sittin' by myself
No excuses, then I know
It's okay
Had a bad day
Hands are bruised from
Breaking rocks all day
Drained and blue
I bleed for you
You think it's funny, well
You're drowning in it, too
CHORUS
Yeah it's fine
We'll walk down the line
Leave our rain, a cold
Trade for warm sunshine
You my friend
I will defend
And if we change, well I
Love you anyway
CHORUS

Don't Follow
------------
Hey, I ain't never coming home
Hey, I'll just wander my own road
Hey, I can't meet you here tomorrow
S2ay goodbye don't follow
Misery is hollow
Hey you, you're livin' life full throttle
Hey you, pass me down that bottle, yeah
Hey you, you can't shake me round now
I get so lost and don't know how
And it hurts to care, I'm going down
Forgot my woman, lost my friends
Think I'd done and where I've been
Sleep in sweat the mirrors cold
See my face it's growin' old
Scared to death no reason why
Do whatever to get me by
Think about the things I said
Read the page it's cold and dead
Take me home (5X)
Say goodbye, don't follow
Swing on This
-------------
Mother said come home
Father said come home
Sisters said come home
So my friends said come home
I said
Let me be, i'm alright
can't you see, I'm just fine
Li2ttle skinny, okay
I'm, asleep anyway
Then I heard a voice
Said "Son you have a choice"
I then slapped my face
Let me be, I'm okay
I'm awake anyway
It's too bright over there
I can shift, cannot steer
So I drive them away
For awhile, then I stay
Little skinny, okay
I'm awake anyway
(SOLO)
Now I have to go home
Do as, when in Rome
Let me be, I'm alright
Can't you see I'm just fine
Little skinny, okay
I'm asleep anyway
Let me be, I'm okay
I'm awake anyway
