Well the grass is always greener
Til’ you step out of the pasture
And then you find your stuck inside
Another self disaster
And when your heart is feeling
Like the victim of a cheatin’
Remember it’s misleading
When your anger’s through the ceiling
and your’re
Feeling blue
And feeling abused
And know you can’t
Make an excuse
When you’re
You’re a victim of truth
Yeah, and once this honeymoon has waned
And roses fade to blue
What will be your saving grace
When idle catches you?
I’m working through the worry
But this worry isn’t living
And when my soul is hurting
I need some self-forgiveness
And I’m
Feeling blue
And feeling abused
And know I can’t
Make an excuse
When I’m
I’m a victim of truth
Yeah, the truth is such a funny thing
They say it sets you free
I’ve used it as a weapon
In selfish irony
And while I sit here pointing
I think I’ll go ahead and join ya’
I think that we’re both lonely
So we can sing along
When we are
Feeling blue
And feeling abused
And know we can’t
Make an excuse
When we’re
We’re both victims of truth

There was a man who loved
To laugh and play
He had a wife and kids
To light his way
He faced his problems head on
One by one
But found solutions just
To hard to come
He lifted spirits high
To light his load
Came down hard
Where rubber met his road
They found him in a grave
Of steel and stone
And the ones he loved left
With a broken home
He went down
Another road
Oh, he went down
Down another road
There was a girl who cared too much too fast
She poured her problems deep inside a glass
The weight of the world left her flag at half-mast
She didn’t know how long she could last
She went down
Another road
Oh, she went down,
Down another road
Oh, They went down
Down another road
Oh, They went down
Down another Road
Oh, I wonder if they’ll find the way back home
There was a man who loved to laugh and play
He had a wife, and kids, and choice to make

The Poison

I woke up this morning
and I turned on the news
A man had gone crazy
From singing the blues
And before he could warn me
I made up an excuse
For changing the channel
For advice I refused
So pour me the poison
I’ll drink it up slow
Savor the taste as
The bitterness flows
I opened my cell phone
To share all my doubts
But I started shouting
When my fears came about
I typed out my gravestone
Then I figured it out
The words I was against
I found stuck in mouth
So pour me the poison
I’ll drink it up slow
Savor the taste as
The bitterness flows
I’ll keep repeating
This love I’ve ignored
While I’m still reaping
This bitter reward
But I am weak, Lord
My groans are too deep
I need a reminder
To be humble and meek
So remind me it’s poison
And an arrogant show
I’ll savor the sweet as
The bitterness goes
I’ll savor the sweet as
The bitterness goes

How will my words bring light
If nothing is new?
Nothing is new?
Where will my spark ignite
If nothing is new?
Nothing is new?
Will the lines that I bare
And the feelings I wear
Keep me from breaking on through?
Will my dreams ever
Make me despair
Cuz’ nothing is new?
How can I know that I’m right
While searching for truth
If nothing is new?
Where is my alibi
When I sing the abuse
‘Cuz nothing is new?
Will the plans that I share
And give all my care
Be impossible to live up to?
Will my dreams ever
Make me despair
When nothing is new?
Will future kings
Know what I’ve done?
Or bid me adieu
Cuz’ nothing is new
Is there more than what’s
Under this sun
Than works to debut
Cuz’ nothing is new
When my life
Is a snare
Of this selfish affair
And I finally let go
For you
Living for more
Is my prayer
Cuz’ nothing is new
Living for more is my prayer
More than this weary heart’s stare
When these selfish dreams make me despair
Cuz’ nothing is new
