Sirens

Sweet sirens sailed his ship off course
A few fickle moments, years of remorse.
Sirens, always there
Sirens, don’t play fair
Sirens, truth or dare
Sirens, avoid their “stare.”
Sitting at a red light
Is enough time
To dwell on a lifetime of shame.
Why or who started the game
If you still wanna look
You can still, see the blame.
Sirens, always there
Sirens, don’t play fair
Sirens, truth or dare
Sirens, avoid their “stare.”

Harder Than It Seems (Dodge)
I’m done running around in circles,
Though I’m still swimming upstream
I still believe in miracles,
Sometimes it’s harder than it seems.
No rhyme no reason
It boggles my mind
‘Til I’m at my wit’s end
Three steps behind.
Now I’m running through an airport
And there’s plenty of time to fly
Then I’m stopped for no reason
There ain’t no reason why.
No rhyme no reason
It boggles my mind
‘Til I’m at my wit’s end
Three steps behind.
And there’s no simple answer
I can see it in your eyes
It’s the last thing I expected
It truly comes as a surprise.
No rhyme no reason
It boggles my mind
‘Til I’m at my wit’s end
Three steps behind.
I’m done running around in circles,
Though I’m still swimming upstream
I still believe in miracles,
Sometimes it’s harder than it seems.
No rhyme no reason
It boggles my mind
‘Til I’m at my wit’s end
Three steps behind.

One More Thing (Dodge)
It’s a poor excuse,
It’s the last thing you asked for
Sure enough,
It’s happening again.
But then you drive all night up and down this lonely highway
Sucker punched,
It’s many miles away.
I’m doing things lately that I can’t even stand myself.
What you want from me?
Do you see things I don’t see?
Mysterious feelings, comin’ my way
I wanna crawl away and hide
But you still can’t find me
Gotta save myself,
Are you trying to shape me?
I’m doing things lately that I can’t even stand myself.
But there’s one more thing
Before I say goodbye
Gotta save myself,
It’s finally time to fly.
I’m doing things lately that I can’t even stand myself.

Sometimes (Dodge)
Sometimes you meet a stranger,
Sometimes you deal your hand
Sometimes you ask the questions,
Sometimes you understand.
Sometimes you wake up dreaming,
Sometimes you dream all day.
Sometimes the dream is scary,
Sometimes you scare the dream away.
Sometimes I feel I just don’t know you,
Sometimes I feel.
You, always ask me
To say the things I just don’t know
You say you’ll always love me,
But sometimes I just don’t know.
Sometimes I feel I just don’t know you,
Sometimes I feel.
Sometimes I feel I just don’t know you,
Sometimes I feel.
Sometimes you meet a stranger,
Sometimes you deal your hand
Sometimes you ask the questions,
Sometimes you understand.
Sometimes you wake up dreaming,
Sometimes you dream all day.
Sometimes the dream is scary,
Sometimes you scare the dream away.
Sometimes I feel I just don’t know you,
Sometimes I feel.
Sometimes I feel I just don’t know you,
Sometimes I care.

Ghost Of A Chance (Dodge)
Take off your disguise,
If only for you
Words fail again.
And if you can’t stay the night,
I’ll always remain.
It’s a ghost of a Chance, out here
Lay down again, not here.
Nirvana before the night,
It’s only for you
Words fail again
Leaving for the light...
Fall down in your surprise
Is all you can do
Words fail again
And if you can’t stay the night
I’ll always remain.
It’s a ghost of a Chance,
Out here tonight,
Lay down again.

These Words (Dodge)
Thinking -thoughts that are in my head
Saying - things I shouldn’t have said
Love song, it’s all been said before
These words, this time you can’t ignore
Talking - we’re talking all night on the phone
Singing- this song is from my heart
Aching, her song couldn’t ache anymore
These words, this time you can’t ignore
Running my fingers through your hair
Telling myself that I just don’t care
I should just say that it just ain’t fair
But I’m just not that way anymore.
Raining- her tears rain down on me
Crying- so hard but she can’t see
Seeing, just ain’t believing no more
These words, this time you can’t ignore
Her eyes- keep staring as though you were blind
She sighs- sometimes you wish you were kind
She leaves, she slams your face in the door
These words, this time you can’t ignore.
Running my fingers through your hair
Telling myself that I just don’t care
I should just say that it just ain’t fair
But I’m just not that way anymore.

Palindrome Girl (Dodge)
She stopped down here,
Not very long
She helped me up and then
Let me down.
I asked her for a reason
She couldn’t tell me why
Now here I am
Wondering where is she.
Her face was distant
Her eyes were very clear
But thinking back
I wonder
If she was ever here.
Sometimes I wonder
Why I care
Maybe it was something
In the air
Now here I am
Wondering if I was there.
Seeing things for the first time
Really opens up my eyes
And somehow
Closes up my mind...

Go Find Ann (Dodge)
Go alone, no one follow
Look around, she’s not here
I’m alone, no one follow,
There she is, is she there?
Ann’s alive a mass of people
I’m alone, in my steeple.
Go find Ann,
I’ve already found her
Go find Ann
Aw she looks so good
Go find Ann
With my arms around her
Go find Ann
I don’t know if I should.
When I’m with her
No one follows
When she’s with me
No one cares
I see a face, a distant reflection
I see it now
Where did it go?
Ann’s alive a mass of people
I’m alone, in my steeple.
Go find Ann,
I’ve already found her
Go find Ann
Aw she looks so good
Go find Ann
With my arms around her
Go find Ann
I don’t know if I should.
Go alone, no one follow
Look around,
She’s not there
Ann’s alone,
She’s come to save me
I’m alone
No one’s there.
Ann’s alive a mass of people
I’m alone, in my steeple.
Go find Ann,
I’ve already found her
Go find Ann
Aw she looks so good
Go find Ann
With my arms around her
Go find Ann
I don’t know if I should.
Go find Ann,
I’ve already found her
Go find Ann
Aw she looks so good
Go find Ann
With my arms around her
Go find Ann
I don’t know if I should.

(Feels Like I’m) Spinnin’ Round (Dodge)
Her voice clouds your mind
as you count the seconds down the side
Of the mountain that you knew,
You couldn’t climb
Days go by, no tears to cry,
Just the pain inside, no place to hide.
Answers that no one has, it’s a question with no answer,
How do I ask, so that you’ll understand?
Days go by, and still I don’t know why
Feels like I’m
Spinnin’ ‘round in a circle.
You ask someone why
They say you live and then you die
Some people don’t wanna know why
I wanna know...
How life can get so bad
How little things can make you mad
How we are supposed to be glad
I wanna know.
Days go by, and still I don’t know why
Feels like I’m
Spinnin’ ‘round in a circle.
Rub your eyes and see
All the colors there can be
Most people don’t see
That’s why I’m glad there’s you and me.
Feels like I’m
Spinnin’ ‘round in a circle.
Feels like I’m
Spinnin’ ‘round in a circle.

There Is Time (Dodge)
I’m getting older but I feel so young inside
Still can’t decide what to be.
Your eyes are blue, mine are green
What does that mean?
It means
There is time, there is time.
The sun is high
as my hopes reflect the day
Yeah they’re many miles away
I squint my eyes to see what I can see
I see
There is time, there is time.
There is time for you and me,
There is time
There is time for you and me.
Enclosed by
The walls of our minds
We travel far far away
The sun shines
I crawl inside my mind to find
There is time, there is time.
You give it up I take it along for a while
Some things aren’t easy to see
Your eyes are blue, mine are green
What does that mean?
It means
There is time, there is time.
There is time for you and me,
There is time
There is time for you and me.
I’m getting older but I feel so young inside
Yeah another year goes by
Fourth of July, yeah
Another New Years Day, but then
There is time, there is time.
There is time for you and me,
There is time
There is time for you and me.
There is time for you and me,
There is time
There is time for you and me.
