I ALREADY KNEW
I already knew
I already knew
In my heart
So convincing, such a tale to tell
A confusing lie that you tell so well
I wondered when you would take the time
To let me know you're leaving me behind
I already knew
I already knew
In my heart
Keep your secrets, keep your venom sting
Go possess the next shiny thing
It won't be long at your hungry pace
You'll forget my name, you'll forget my face
I already knew
I already knew
I already knew
In my heart
Shed your tears for a little while
Behind your sorrow hides your smile
Say goodbye and let it end
I never mattered so don't pretend
I already knew
I already knew
I already knew
I already knew
In my heart

Chance
A silver cloud outside my window
Lit so brightly from the moon
Slow and silently began to slip away
I wish it didn’t disappear so soon
It slips away
But it’s alright
Come another night
Another cloud
I found a dollar on the sidewalk
And bought the numbers for the day
The governor thanked me for my money
But the magic in my ticket did not pay
No easy money
But it’s alright
There are more numbers
On the way
Everywhere I’ve been
Everything I’ve done
Has brought me to this circumstance
Where would I be
If I couldn’t see
When the time was right for my chance
Right place, right time
Right place, at the right time
Right place, right now
I took a sip of holy water
And poured the rest over my head
She spoke to me with a lusty whisper
Hallelujah was the word she said
She said hallelujah
And it’s alright
That silver moonlight
Was in her eyes

FEEL
Seeing shades of light I never saw before
Bright and shining in my eyes
Dark and dreary don’t surround me anymore
Satisfaction in a radiant sunrise
I hear a symphony in every passing breeze
A rhythm playing in the wind
Scattered songs and tones and random melodies
A new beat for my heart, a heart that wants to mend
Do you feel
This thing that I feel for you
Do you feel
This thing that I feel for you
Private hopes and horoscopes
I wonder if you’re reading my mind
The compass spins around again
Are we who we’re trying to find
Do you feel
This thing that I feel for you
Do you feel
This thing that I feel for you
Do you feel the connection
When you look in my direction
Can you see a possibility come true
Am I someone that you mention
Do we share the same intention
Are my crazy wishes reaching you
Do you feel
This thing that I feel for you
Do you feel
This thing that I feel for you

Will I Know

WILL I KNOW
Will I know, will I ever know love again
Will I know, will I ever know love again
All the distance and all the time
Has moved me on, so far away
All I know and all that I feel
Has turned to dust and blown away
Will I know, will I ever know love again
Will I know, will I ever know love again
In my exile in my mind
Reflect upon the wasted time
Covet sunlight, purify
I need a chance to make it right
Will I know, will I ever know love again
Will I know, Will I ever know love again
Will I see, will I ever see light again
Will I feel, will I ever feel warmth again
Will I be, will I ever be free again
Will I know, will I ever know love again

High and Low

HIGH AND LOW
Two cheap pints and a bottle of wine
I spent my money and I lost my mind
The calendar says it’s another day on my own
Dark dirty room with a sofa bed
Hard drinking night hanging over my head
A pistol in my pocket with one name left to go
I’ll look for you high and low
Where you run to is where I’ll go
I’ll look for you high and low
I will be the last sight in your shadow
We played hard and we played fast
You sold me out when you played me last
I’m a free man now with payback on my mind
I wrote my list, old friends of mine
Who owe me money and who owe me time
I got a pistol in my pocket with one name left to go
I will be the last sight in your shadow
When it got tough all of you were gone
And there I stood with handcuffs on
You set me up and you let me do your time
I paid my debt and I paid yours too
My life of crime will soon be through
I got a pistol in my pocket with one name left to go
I’ll look for you high and low
Where you run to is where I’ll go
I’ll look for you high and low
I will be the last sight in your shadow

Messenger

MESSENGER
A mob is making noise outside
A promise made, no need to hide
We’re friends today
Stand tall, salute the flag
My uniform is a tattered rag
I stand away
You see ships arrive from far away
You try to stay alive, send them away
I am a messenger
I am not alone
See the woman in her rags
A metal cart with all her bags
And you turn away
I saw a shadow in the glass
And heard a scream that didn’t last
You laughed it all away
The edge is sharpened now, so cut away
Our eyes stare at the ground, all led astray
But, I am a messenger
And I am not alone
Touch me, watch me
Touch me, watch me
Disappear
Show me, tell me
Show me, tell me
What you hear
I am a messenger
And I am not alone
I am a messenger
And I am not alone
