there is no shelter
where do I call home?
I have no place to lay my head
I make my bed alone
they think they know me
they have no clue
I'm caught between two worlds
they tell me what to do
I'm judged on the one side
shunned by the other
who is my brother?
you know what it's like to be lonely
you know what it's like to be stabbed in the back
you carry the weight of this world on your shoulders
all that you know is under attack
thrown out rejected
with the greatest ease
like I'm infected with
the ugliest disease
told myself I'd wash their hands
and do what love demands
I'm under....

Fish in a Jar

nothing in the mirror
you wiped the fall away
nothing in my future
less you are today
far from complete
far from complete
I've come so far
still feel so far away
like a fish out at sea
just so close to free
nothing feels sweeter
to empty hands braced
my hungry eyes searching
for feasts of love gazed
far from complete
far from complete
I've come so far
still feel so far away
like a fish out at sea
just so close to free
I'm like a fish in a jar
I'm like a fish in a jar
I'm like a fish in a jar

started drinking lately 'cause she's just so bored
she thinks she's loosing lately 'cause there's just no way to win
she crawls home at night, gets high
feels all right, all right
sleep in lately 'cause she's just so board
escape comes so easy between the covers and her bed
she craws home at noon today, tucks in
and feels OK, feels OK
Jessie says she's all right
but she's dying inside
she's too tired to run
she's too afraid to fight
watches TV alone listens for the phone
someone who cares
someone who loves her out there.
doesn't look for love she's just so tired
of all the hungry boys who eat they'll lose desire
she crawls home to bed at 10, eats some pills
she's gone again, gone again
Jessie says she's all right
but she's dying inside
she's too tired to run
she's too afraid to fight
Jessie's all alone
thinks she's the only one
but I know where she's been
'cause I'm here alone again
here alone, here alone again
she sits at home
I'm by the phone
we both need a friend
I'm alone again
I'm alone and she's alone again

Standing Here Alone

It's embracive and it's roots me down to the bone
your time is is wasted 'cause you've been killing it all night
she screams "get out!"
you slap here mouth
and I'm caught in the middle
I don't really know how long I can wait
standing here alone inside with all your hate
I don't really know how much more I can take
standing here alone I think I'm going to break
Love is toxic but loving is you is all you do
I think you're sick man and only God can pull you through
she screams "get out!"
you slap here mouth
and I"m caught in the middle
I don't really know how long I can wait
standing here alone inside with all your hate
I don't really know how much more I can take
standing here alone I think I'm going to break
break
