Ocean Liner

With her heart as big as an ocean liner
But the cold still grows inside her
She got her suitcase packed the wind beside her
She's gonna leave that passed behind her
Hey Hey
Got a ticket in her hand gonna make it to the city
Back in that house she was goin crazy
Her eyes wide open as a sick reminder
That the cold still grows inside her
Hey Hey
Hey I'm not home
or free from wrong
Like I said, never let the truth be known
and forever be on my own
Not like the hometown full of pitty
This town eats the weak and weary
Well there ain't no time to be tired or lonely
Ocean liner is a one way only
Hey Hey
Now the ocean liner well she's becoming
Sails through the city like she owns it
With the diesel chuggin' and the fires burnin'
Times are better she has earned it
Hey Hey
Hey I'm not home
or free from wrong
Like I said, never let the truth be known
and forever be on my own

Break Of Dawn

No attitude I don't know why
I sleep all day
I drink all night
Livin' in solitude it's been a while
You try to keep me straight
But that's all right
And I waited till the break of dawn
To find somebody new and I found you
Tell your mamma turn the breakers on
'Cause I got nothin' to do
But be with you
You gotta stick around here and dance a while
You know I make mistakes
But that's alright
There's just something about you that makes me smile
So when you leave the gates
I'll drink my wine
And I waited till the break of dawn
To find somebody new and I found you
Tell your mamma turn the breakers on
'Cause I got nothin' to do
But be with you

Is something wrong she said you might be sick
Well I'm fellin' alright
I got some friends to keep me compay
Just outside the town lines
You see I stopped the trend of giving compliments
You can't afford my time
I get it wrong again and i can see
It ain't the end of the line
I'm Only thinking of myself
And only thinking of myself
If you cold choose to be somebody else
Would they be anything like yourself
There's nothing wrong this ain't a stalemate
I think you look alright
You got your friends to keep you company
While I'm across the state lines
You see I stopped the trend of giving compliments
It's just a waste of time
I get it wrong again and I can see
It ain't the end of the line
Well
I'm only thinking of myself
And only thinking of myself
If you could choose to be somebody else
Would they be anything like yourself
Tonight it waits too long but
I see my lady
She keeps me coming around
I bring it to ya from your town
Your goin down
Like a spinaround
You got me reeling
And only thinking of myself

Long Gone Be Gone

Long gone be gone, not terrified
Preacher says keep your prayin' church alive
The end of your life is now justified
Long gone be gone, until you realize
In the world of tomorrow
There's so much pain, but I don't feel your sorrow
In this world, you gotta make it through the night
Your fucked up world, ain't shinning so bright Honey
It's comin' around
Live on and on, you just fantasize
Screws in your head, you just criticize
Well there's nothing left just to plagiarise
Well you took too long, to open your eyes
Don't think about yesterday cause tomorrow's comin' round
Well its comin' round
Empty collection plate and no one can be found
It won't be long now
Too late you paved the way now your stuck in the alley with the other Long gone be gones
This ain't true judgement day or a battle of right or wrong
Too bad you live in a state where your stuck in the alley
Long gone be gone
This ain't true judgement day or a battle
Right or wrong

The Hustle

Not missbehavin' now don't you know
In many ways, the book's been wrote
See you look different, as you walk on by
Another train no destination, no complaints interrogation runnin' dry
New trend of thrills now the hustler's broke
In many ways, your the joke
When I see them thrills tattooed right in your eyes
The consequences are evaded and I see that ship is sailing gone good bye
So book em' up and keep the hustle above
The Alleyways
Designer pills across the nation
Keep em' free from their frustration
Ain't gotta hide
With no surprise
Anyway
Not missbehavin' now don't you know
In many ways, the book's been wrote
See you look different and it's in your eyes
The consequences are evaded and I see that ship is sailing gone good bye
