I Give Up
I've had enough, enough of this
i'd like to be granted one last wish
that my kids will always have a smile
not like me, i've not smiled for a while
but the decision is reached, this is the end
not living this life without one single friend
I catch myself constantly wondering how you are,
sitting alone with my mind set so far,
reminiscing about your smile, your voice and touch.
Damn this life! I’m missing you too much.

What I would give for one last chance to hold you
Just for one last chance to hold you, i'd concider giving up everything
To just smell your hair, to feel your warmth, i'd gladly give up breathing
To hear your laugh, to see your smile, i would give up my right arm
To feel your touch that i miss so much, would give me a sense of calm
To even hear your voice, to see your beauty, theres not much i would'nt do
God forbid you ever left this world, i'd let you know that i'm coming too
Having to live without you is hard enough, but knowing that your ok
Just knowing that you are on this earth is what gets me...
To just smell your hair, to feel your warmth, i'd gladly give up breathing
To hear your laugh, to see your smile, i would give up my right arm
To feel your touch that i miss so much, would give me a sense of calm
To even hear your voice, to see your beauty, theres not much i would'nt do
God forbid you ever left this world, i'd let you know that i'm coming too
Having to live without you is hard enough, but knowing that your ok

bittersweet revenge
Revenge is sweet, revenge is just
it is a bittersweet thing that is a must
may make you feel better, may make you feel worse
and sometimes it even feels like a curse
but once it's done, there's no turning back
the best form of defence, you know is attack
so be prepared to live with that decision for the rest of your life
but at least you've taken care of that one lowlife
it is a bittersweet thing that is a must
may make you feel better, may make you feel worse
and sometimes it even feels like a curse
but once it's done, there's no turning back
the best form of defence, you know is attack
so be prepared to live with that decision for the rest of your life
but at least you've taken care of that one lowlife

Why bother ?
If at first you don't succeed
then why bother at all ?
cos if it's hard first time around
why set yourself up for a fall
but if you decide to try again
then don't moan if you fail
cos if you are really that stupid
its your own fault your on that trail
but then again if you succeed
you can skip, jump and hop
but im not really that interested
even if you shout it from the rooftop
then why bother at all ?

In the balance
When there's a fight going on deep in your soul
on one hand it's warm, on the other it's cold
It may be a war between bad and good
Which one wins ? I know which should
It's that age old battle between love and hate
Just pray to god that you don't leave it too late
To let one consume you and have you as it's host
The winner will be the one which you feed the most
on one hand it's warm, on the other it's cold
It may be a war between bad and good
Which one wins ? I know which should
It's that age old battle between love and hate
Just pray to god that you don't leave it too late
To let one consume you and have you as it's host
The winner will be the one which you feed the most

All caged up
In a cage, full of rage
is this where i should be ?
Or roaming free, let me be me
paying debts to society
But if that rage got out of that cage
Then god only knows what will happen
So at this stage, stay in that cage
But people will start to gladden
So at this age, i got my cage
And my madness i will keep with me
So i could put my rage back in that cage
Or i could just let me be me
is this where i should be ?
Or roaming free, let me be me
paying debts to society
But if that rage got out of that cage
Then god only knows what will happen
So at this stage, stay in that cage
But people will start to gladden
So at this age, i got my cage
And my madness i will keep with me
So i could put my rage back in that cage
Or i could just let me be me

Cold Turkey
Nothing prepares you for what is to come
The only thing you will not suffer is total boredom
Because when it starts one thing you can tell
Is that it would be easier to be living in hell
It's gonna be about a week before you get any sleep
You will wish the one with the syth here and beginning his reap
Then start the aches and pains like never before
Wondering if it would have helped if you had nailed up the door
Because your in for a ride, the ride of your life
Another good idea is to hide every knive
Because you may even look to take the easy way out...

Pat the rat
For anyone that's never met the guy, please beware !
And when he looks at you with that innocent looking stare
You need to realise whats really behind those eyes
Deceipt, dishonour and at least a million lies
The lies hes perfected, it really sounds like the truth
But it comes from a mouth without hardly a tooth
Opiates have been his life for many a year
Then on top of that theres plenty of beer
He is your best friend while you have money in the bank
And when your not there, he's on the phone and quite frank
"are you coming over and are you wanting...

The king of absolutely f**kall
Each morning i wake, look out the window and take
A good look at my kingdom, what a wonderful day
Knowing i'm the king of all i survey
I sit with a coffee and the hardest thing i must say
Is thinking of what i should do with my day
With a smile as wide as a Cheshire cat
Feels like ive won the lottery or something like that
But then comes reality like a whacking great wall
not even a slippery slope, this is total freefall
Coming back to reality starts making me sad
Something is wrong, i think i'm going mad
Cos while im still in total freefall

Why the f**k did we let her interfere
Cos we lived in her house, didn’t make me her slave
if I would have known in advance, I would have rather lived in a cave
I enjoyed my life, my family and my job
then she got you on side and I did what you both wanted (what a knob)
it didn’t take much to turn everything on its head
but I kept on doing what you both said
I knew the judgements were wrong, but was pointless to say
you would have never seen a single thing my way
“its her house” its her house” that’s all you would say
4am taking her to the airport and an exam that same day
is there...

She was my girl
She was my girl, she is my world
She’s the one that makes my life worth living
She was my girl, she is my world
The only one that will never let me give in
I took her heart and ripped it out
But I never meant to hurt her with my actions
She’s all I want, she’s all I need
But I got caught up with the wrong distractions
She’s everything to me, I wish that she could see
How much of my life she really does complete me
I dream of her each night, how I wish to hold her tight
Id sell my soul for one more chance to put things right
She was my wife, she...
