Crystal's in the sand
See the lonely man
sitting out there alone
stuck inside a memory
watching the storm roll on in
bringing down the rain
tears from yesterday
He hides behind his pain
wondering if it will always be the same
here in lifes little game
that we all have to play
he cries out her name
Feeling like there is no more love to give
when the woman he loved so much in time
still holds it all here in her hand
like crystal's in the sand
He thinks of only one reason
that makes him want to live

Mary
Mary came to me
like a Angel in a dream
as beautiful as a winter snow
coming down in December
with a smile I can't get off my mind
and now all I know
she's a face to remember
in this lonely crowd
an angel in a cloud
And if I seen her walk on by
she's where I would want to go
here forever by her side
is where I would want to hide
Mary is a woman
every girl would want to be
she could make a man
turn around
think a angel has come down

Far From Here
Sat under that old Oak tree
watching the day pass me by
thinking of how we use to be
in a time not meant for you and me
Said I'm going far from here
got to be something better out there
more than what we show in fear
where I can watch the setting sun disappear
Going to where the wide river's flow
a place only God will know
on a mountain all covered in snow
where the desert shines down below
Said I'm going far from here
where no one else is near
underneath that burning sky
where nothing never seems to die
a place you never have to try

Heaven's Own Light
She's so dark and mysterious
it keeps me dazed and curious
she has a soul that you can see shine
as bright as heaven's own light
But theirs a feeling buried deep inside
her world frayed and torn
yesterday, she can't hide
beatened in the sun
thinks her body is scorn
as her world came undone
But I only want to make her mine
if only I could make her turn around
I know I would never let her down
something about her stole my heart
she whispers to me in my sleep
and now I'm in too deep
I felt what was inside you

Bleed for Me
I've seen this world we live in
been through so many places
seen the crowd of a thousand faces
I've played all its games
still I try to live
it seems we just can't win
the more they take
the less they give
Goverment rules controls all
you're just robots they control
everything you have and own
belongs to them, let it go
you have no freedom
they make you and break you
get to the front of the line
give back what they think belongs to them
today your day has come
bleed for me, I'd like to see you die
for me, I'd like to watch you fall

Two Angels
There was a time in my life
I just closed my eyes
days I couldn't look back
at the memories faded in my mind
wandering down this lonesome track
with two Angels here by my side
showing me where I had to go
These wounds that would never heal
lost pictures of you I never could find
they seem to still haunt me
stuck here in what now is reality
I can no longer feel
with two Angels here by my side
showing me the things I needed to know
Sitting in some empty motel room
staring out the window
into the silence of the night
thinking about what I left behind

Changing
You look up at the sky
as you seem to notice
how she keeps changing
changing a different color
but no-one wants the blame
you will just leave it like this
she's only our earth, our mother
You keep on with progress
while she's slowly dieing
still you just don't give a damn
as you watch her crying
don't you think it's time
you need to give it a rest
you've done created such a mess
You close your eyes
so you won't have to believe
you just don't want to see
she don't mean a thing to me

Everything That We Have
Now you cry a river
as you're lying here dreaming
you opened up your eye's
and started believing
but it's too late now to care
everything that we have here is gone
there is no more forever
it's too late now to realize
what we done wrong
everything that we have here is gone
Was a time you could've lend a hand
but you never would make a stand
said it was just part of God's plan
so you just sat there watching the destruction
as we fade away into nothing
now everything that we have here is gone
did it come to you as a surprise
when you never heard that morning bird
sing it's last song

A Soul That Wouldn't Bleed
When I was feeling myself fall
you picked me up again
and taught me how to stand
you gave me strength to live
even through the sorrow
and every bit of pain
When I was down and alone
you held out your hand
and gave me a shoulder to lean on
showed me it was better not to recieve
but to help those in need
and you taught me how to give
When I was in doubt with anger
with a soul that wouldn't bleed
you showed me days of better
and taught me how to believe
you let me see out there
that there's more to what we have here

My Town
Not that much here
where I live
just a emtpy pasture
blowing in the breeze
beautiful picture
outlined with trees
five-hundred feet lays a track
and early in the evening
you can catch that train
those days I don't look back
I lost everything I could give
My town is not much to look at
broken down buildings that use to stand
their's not even a laundrymat
and on the edge of my town
their's a corner store
that old man there
wishing he had more
