The Ambulance Song

I need some sleep today. but there's another man's shoes beneath my bed. I could relax in my favorite chair. but the seat it still warm from another man.

Still Waiting

These are the toughest days. Time is slow and the skies are gray. Well, this is the hardest time. To tell yourself to take your time. . Seems like a hundred years.

Staring At The Rude Boys

it's a very small world in the middle of a crowd. the room gets dark when the music gets loud. the rudies want to groove. but there's no room to move 'cause the floor is packed tight.

Simple Minds

All those years. wanting to be here. All those tragedies I screamed at. and laughed at. and threw in the trash. And still they stand. their lives burn so bright.

Safe

One for all. nothing for one. and the more on your side the better. for them. They taught you your place. I can't even see your face. I don't understand.

S.f.s

(Sound For Sound). . sfs. it's only a song. took five minutes and it's not that long. and it means more to us than it will to them. just another stupid fast song again.

Roger

Penita

sitting here like forty ounces. waiting to be drunk. I always seem to want what I don't want. it's more than I can handle. still I want another shot. even without it , five minutes from now.

One To Two

There are things I'd like to say. that I've said too many times before. Things I should have done. instead of looking for a way to get out. You'll never know the sorrow I felt.

Never Green Lane

I won't remember your name. I can see it everywhere I go. I can't remember how you cut your hair. some things you cut no longer grow. I'll forget where you came from.

Never Go Back

Sometimes it gets so cloudy. it's so hard to see. Everything gets distorted. It's all a dream. All these smiling faces. have lost their shine. I guess I'm getting older.

My Dog Is A Cat

my dog's a cat. but he's really fat. and I shove him under the welcome mat. doesn't know where he's going to. and he doesn't know where he's been.

Mule

Came into town ready to play. But Matt said, "Sorry - the show's not today". Went to some punks' house and heard GBH. But we were thrown out when their mother came home.

Minority Of One

Look back on what they told you. and see what truth can't hide. the government controls you and brother that's not just a line. but don't trust them to tell you what is right.

Million Days

look in the mirror. who's staring at me. reflections showing everything but the pain that's underneath. I turn around and walk away but the images stay in my mind.

Matt

when I look at the life in which I'm sinking. naturally I find myself thinking. what am I doing here ?. it's been fun , so much fun. doing things I never should have done.

Mango

I'm looking for the answers to my prayers. but I just can't seem to find them anywhere. see I've been hoping for. no war , no crime , all the people on the street have a place to sleep at night.

Lie Down Time

I just got hit by a ton of bricks. But I won't lie down. While I'm alive I'm gonna get my kicks. I won't lie down. I'm old and dirty from the wrong side of town.

La Penita

sitting here like forty ounces. waiting to be drunk. I always seem to want what I don't want. it's more than I can handle. still I want another shot. even without it , five minutes from now.

Justification

We have tried and failed. We have stumbled and fallen. We have tried a new taste. and we spit it back out. We have taken a left turn. when we meant to turn right.
