In this world of give and take
I’ve learned to take my share
Demoralizing myself in greed and adultery
A spirit timeless won’t confide in me
In the restraints of the social norm
I criticized the artist
For being too emotional too giving
Too much like the me I am longing to be
I want to live and I want to run free
I want to breathe like the artist in me
And revel in the heart of spontaneity
Couldn’t tell you about New York City
I was too drunk most of the time
Couldn’t tell you of the ways of LA
I was too busy daydreaming to blind to see
They say sometimes it’s better to forget
Accentuate the guilt without the regret
They say sometimes you must face away
To truly see yourself, to truly see yourself
I want to live…

That's Me

I'll be your sinner
I'll be your saint
I'll be your hope
Your superman
Though none of my heroics go quite as planned
But that's me
You say there's no forgiveness
You say there's never truth
Just pain, hate and lies
That life provides you
Now you've given up
Got to lift you up
Put a hand out
And stand behind you
I'll be your addiction
I'll be your cure
I'll be your honor
Your stealthy thief
And bear the burden of your alchemy
But that's me
You say to keep my distance
And view you from afar
Read it in the headlines
Of who you are
Now you've hung it up
Got to lift you up
Put a hand out
And stand behind you
Faith, hope, forgiveness, sin, lies, lust, truth, trust, love
I can sing like a sinner
Or scream like a saint
I'm half what you are
But All that you ain't
And willing to turn and leave it all behind
But that's me
