Already Gone

One time I've seen the light and felt the hands of a lesser God
Holding me up, keeping me strong
Two times I've drank his wine on a Sunday sermon
But I've never longed to be one with them
Oh no, I'm already gone...
One day I took a walk in a lonely wood on the Norther Shore
Only to find peace in my mind
Two days I spent alone on the road to roam
But I never longed to be home again
Oh no, I'm already gone ...
One girl have I loved true but I don't belong with someone who
Needs to be with somebody too
Two whores have I been with on lonely nights
But I've never stayed 'till the 'morn with them
Oh no, I'm already gone ...
Today I called a friend who I haven't seen in quite a while
Asked him about his wife and his child
Two weeks now she's been gone and he doesn't know
If he'll ever see his little babe again
Oh no, she's already gone ...
One night I lay in bed and had a thought of giving in
Leaving this life, my family and friends
Two nights since then I've thanked the Lord for life
But I've never longed to be born again
Oh no, I'm already gone ...

Why

Why cry when everyone's laughin'
Why lie when honesty's free?
Why scream, no one is listening'
Why must I always ask why
Why drink when thirst does not curse you
Why think, just let your mind breathe
Why fear, hope is a virtue
Why must I always ask why
I'll climb higher and higher
Until I don't find those who will tire my mind
Why save when you see no tomorrow
Why crave when you've all you need
Why steal the things you could borrow
Why must I always ask why
I'll climb higher and higher
Until I don't find those who will tire my mind
It's just too easy their way
All the things they will never know
Fleetingly there, seemingly unaware
That they're going too slow
Their poor little minds, like a child
Learning only what they are told
Fleetingly there, seemingly unaware
That they're stuck in the mold
I wish they would open their eyes to the world
Forget how to pray
Why preach, you'll never save my soul
Why reach for the things you can't see
Why spit when you could just swallow
Why must I always ask why
I'll climb higher and higher
Until I don't find those who will tire
I'll grow wiser and wiser
'Til every thought flows with narcistic fire
in my mind

Better Day

Can you swim, my brother
Or do you tread on the water
Can you help yourself as much as you've helped me
And when we get to the river
Will you stand strong and whisper
Come, my friend, you can drink before me
And you fill my cup and ease my pain
and get me through another day
You know when I am lonely?
You can tell if they've stoned me
So you take a seat by my side
We talk about the memories
And think about our families that have passed us by
God help us, I fear we're going blind
And you take my hand and lead the way
And get me through another day
Can't you swim my brother
I see you're treading on the water
Here, take my hand, and I'll help you from the sea
And in the dead of the winter
When you break down and shiver
Have my coat, for you have once saved me
And I'll give you warmth and keep you sane.
And get you through another day.
If ever you find yourself dreaming
Of packin' it all up and leavin'
Won't you think of me, I'm still waitin' on a ride
'Cause I'm not one to be faithful
To a life that's dull, boring, and shameful
so I'll take a seat on your passenger side
And we'll laugh and bleed along the way
Lookin for that better day
And we'll cry and sing along the way
Just lookin' for that better day
