As A Man

it took the worst crash to make the best change
it took my biggest loss to make my best gains
as a man
if you have yet to hit the wall, give it time,
it's coming,
and it might be just what you need
don't take for granted what you may lose
this life will take it away from you
as it pleases
that's right, when all seems right and it's shattered
that's right, right from the sky and it crashes
that's right, in just one night,
it unravels all that matters
as a man
it took some long nights to make for the best days
it took some painful strides to help me fly away
it took the longest nights to make for the best days
it took some painful strides to help me fly away
it takes just a little bit more each and every day
to help me se the light that I used to see
as a man
use your hands while you can
cause one day it will all be gone

Mirage/Always Me

i remember thinking the sun would always shine
and i remember thinking that you would always be mine
happens all the time, the very thing that you're looking at
seems like something from a dream
but give it time as the day clears your vision up
you realize it's not exactly as it seems
i remember thinking the rain would never fall
and i remember thinking that i would never hit that wall
but gravity it wins the war that we're all fighting at
now is the tie to be and love and live your dreams
but just remember that the very thing you're looking at
it may not be just as exactly as it seems
and all of the problems i thought i was looking at
they weren't exactly as they seemed
and all of the time spent looking out
i should have been looking in
it was likely me
just like all of this time,
with all of our ups and downs,
it was always me
it was always me

End of the Day

you never know what's coming your way
so you gotta live the day by day
you may to have the words to say
but they'll be there some day
just hold on for the ride
don't keep your cries inside
let your colors show
and show love to those you hold close
you can never know if the steps that you put forth
will be enough to make it though the day
pace by pace we push on through
and hope for peace
at the end of the day
you try to do your best each day
and hope good fortune comes your way
you try to do the thing that's right
to help you get to sleep at night
you can never know if the steps that you put forth
will be enough to make it though the day
pace by pace we push on through
and hope for peace
at the end of the day
and time it will run out
and no one gets to stay
so spend your moments wisely each day
and as it slips away
be cradled by the warmth
of love that you have felt and made
and let peace
let peace carry you away
at the end of the day

Who Doesn't

they said that you're gonna have pain for the rest of your life
who doesn't
they said that there may be a day again that you go under the knife
who doesn't
they said you know it's gonna get harder as the days go on
who doesn't
they said that you're gonna have pain for the rest of your life
who doesn't
no one said that this life would be easy
who knew it could be so hard
maintaining the heartbeat and the breathing
is quite the task behind all these scars
they said to always be grateful and do the best that you can
who doesn't
they said to never be hateful and to love who you can
who doesn't
they said you know as you grow old
you'll want a mate for your soul
who doesn't
no one said that this life would be easy
who knew it could be so hard
maintaining the heartbeat and the breathing
is quite the task behind all these scars
so they say,
"you don't wanna be on your own, you don't wanna be all alone,
you'll want a mate for your soul...
you don't wanna be on your own, you don't wanna be all alone,
you'll want a mate for your soul..."
I'm doing fine on my own
I'd rather be left alone
Don't need a mate for my soul
who doesn't
