You got me back

The only reason I don't commit suicide
is because I'm afraid to be alone
Humor is the ability to see
three sides to one coin.
And yet among people, I am distant from them all
really I should be done away with, being a two-headed monster.
“Minor artists borrow, great ones steal.”
Reviews of my music have never taught me a thing
therefore I like to receive only good reviews
Still i am capable of arguing any view or its opposite
depending on who i m trying to persuade what to.
“Art means to dare — and to have been right.”
Reviews of my music have never taught me a thing
therefore I like to receive only good reviews
“Artists, by definition innocent, don’t steal.
But they do borrow without giving back.”
“Compose first, worry later.”
In art spontaneity must be calculated.
Simplicity is complex, to be easy is hard.
Reviews of my music have never taught me a thing
therefore I like to receive only good reviews
“Artists, by definition innocent, don’t steal.
But they do borrow without giving back.”

You and I together
just like ordinary friends
together is forever
cause the space just has no end
saddle up your mooncow
and ride into the sun
together is forever
when you know that he's the one
love is all around us but we couldn't get a hold
tonight we'll make it happen if we're not too cold
love is all around us but we couldn't get a hold
tonight we'll make it happen if we're not too old
So listen to your heartbeat
and get into the groove
you always dance together
when you have your space to move

If I had known then
how much I would miss you one day
I would not have cheated then
When we played mini golf
I remember when
when you looked away, I changed the ball
to get me to a better place
to putt it right away
maybe you knew it too
but you just kept on playing the round
I love you even more for that
I wish I could tell you now
If I had known then
how much I would miss you one day
I would not have cheated then
When we played mini golf

On nights of utter isolation
I know a place where I can go
a thrill, a wonderful sensation
oh there's a space where I can grow
so small the cause of my frustration
I almost feel a rush of shame
got no visions of desperation
cause there's no one that I could blame
you're there to help me out
you'll care when I'm all cried out
so whenever all the things turn around
you'll know where I am found
With you the dark always gets brighter
whenever I see things in a blur
a glass will get me take life lighter
not only if the pain occurs
you're there to help me out
you'll care when I'm all cried out
so whenever all the things turn around
you'll know where I am found
and whenever I feel close to the end
I know that I've got a friend

Where Do You Stand?

All the insights will not ease the pain
where do you stand - where do you stand
now that I know everything's in vain
where do you stand - where do you stand
all your prayers will just not be heard
where do you stand - where do you stand
now your blessings turn out to be absurd
where do you stand
we all feel lost and not at home
at least at last we are not alone
I think it's clear that the fight goes on
at least at last we are not alone... alone
will we ever find peace side by side
where do you stand - where do you stand
can we ever see starlit skies at night
where do you stand - where do you stand

oh i know that you will laugh right now
if you were old enough to know
what it means to really run the show
Ab Ab/Bb
With your smile everything turns bright
cm db5

Love how you never seem to care
when you dive into the mud with joy
don't hesitate to be who you are
and some day you ll understand the boys
sure it's a sentimental thought
oh i know that you will laugh right now
if you were old enough to know
what it means to really run the show
With your smile everything turns bright
in my darkest hours you are my light
cause your smile makes everything worthwhile.

Oh yes you stand tall
You're Just Mr. Knowitall
even bigger with a crown
so you can look down
on the ones you detest
no one will stand the test
it's your game, you make the rules
your the head of your own school
I see the loneliness in your eyes
but I can do without your sarcastic replies
Your scorn rattles when you moan
after the battle when you go home
I always wonder if you celebrate
that no one likes to be your fate
I see the arrogance in your eyes
but I can do without your sarcastic replies
I see the loneliness in your eyes
but I can do without your sarcastic replies

More Than A Fling

Everyone in their right mind
would not get involved
but you seem sure of yourself
so why should I question it
basically it's a dumb idea
but anyone can be smart
let 's go with the adventure
let's just follow our hearts
Maybe this is just the right thing
Maybe this is more than a fling
Most of the people that I know
follow the trodden path
even if it is a dead end
they never turn around
we'e the exception to the rule
the others can learn something new
but they're probably already numb
to admit that it's true
