The Real Folk Blues
Too much time has passed by to
lament that we were deeply in love
The wind keeps blowing, while my heart
cannot heal all the tears in it
Someone, cry for me with parched eyes
The Real Folk Blues
I only want to know what true sadness is
Sitting in muddy water
Isn't such a bad life
If it ends after the first time

Aishiteta to nageka niwa
amarinimo toki was sugite shimatta
Mada kokoro no hokorobi wo
iyasena mama kaze ga fuiteru
Kawaita hitomi de dareka naite kure
The Real Folk Blues
Honto no kanashimi ga shiritai dake
Doro ho kawa ni tsukatta
jinsei mo waraka wa nai
Ichido kiri de owaru hara

Don't Bother None
Readin’ my paper in Roy’s cafe
The ol’ guy next to me is loud as day
Rambled and rambled while eatin’ his pie
He dropped his wallet, now its mine uh huh
Sorry old man but that’s jus’ the way that it is
Don’t bother none
Won’t help at all to worry ‘bout it
Picked up the wallet and slipped out side
Walked around and walked around and walked around town
I found my nerv and a good place to hide
Only to find no cash inside uh-huh
Oh well I guess that’s just the way that it is
Don’t bother none
Won’t help at all to worry ‘bout it
I got thirsty so I went to a bar
Met a lil darlin’ with the face of a star
In the mornin’ woke up to find
She stole my car along with my heart uh-huh
Oh well I guess that’s just the way that it is
Don’t bother none
Won’t help at all to worry ‘bout it
Wish she’d gimme back my heart uh-huh
Oh well I guess that’s just the way that it is
Don’t bother none
Won’t help at all to worry ‘bout it.

Rain
I don’t feel a think
And I stopped remembering
The days are just like moments turned to hours
Mother used to say
If you want, you’ ll find a way
Bet mother mever danced through fire shower
Walk in the rain,in the rain, in the rain
I walk in the rain,in the rain
Is it right or is it wrong
And is it here that I belong
I don’t hear a sound
Silent faces in the ground
The quiet sceams, but I refused to listen
If there is a hell
I’m sure this is how it smells
Wish this were a dream, but no, it isn’t
Walk in the rain, in the rain, in the rain
I walk in the rain, in the rain
Am I a right or am I wrong
And is it here that I belong
Walk in the rain, in the rain, in the rain
I walk in the rain, in the rain
Why do I feel so alone
For some reason I think at home.

Blue
Never seen a bluer sky
Yeah I can feel it reaching out
And moving closer
There’s something ‘bout blue
Asked myself what it’s all for
You know the funny thing about it
I couldn’t answer
No, I couldn’t answer
Things have turned a deeper shaper of blue
And images that might be real
Maybe illusion
Keep flashing off and on
Free...
Wanna be free, Gonna be free...
And move among the stars
You know they really aren’t so far
Feels so free...
Gotta know free... Please...
Don’t wake me from the dream
It’s really everything it seemed
I’m so free...
No black and white in the blue
Everything is clearer now
Life is just a dream, you know
That’s never ending
I’m ascending.

Words That We Couldn't Say
We couldn't say them
now we just pray them
Words that we couldn't say
Funny ain't it
games people play
scratch it, paint it
one in the same
We couldn't find them
we tried to hide them
Words that we couldn't say
It hurts, don't it
fools on parade
taint it, own it
chase it away
We couldn't make them
we had to break them
Words that we couldn't say
Sometimes baby
we make mistakes
dark and hazy
prices we pay
I sit here on my shelf
talking to myself
Words that we couldn't say
Someday, maybe
we'll make it right
until that day
long endless nights
We couldn't say them
now we just pray them
Words that we couldn't say.

Adieu
Been a fool, been a clown
Lost my way from up and down
And I know, yes I know
And I see in your eyes
That you really weren’t surprised at me at all
Not at all
And I know by your smile it’s you.
Don’t care for me, don’t cry
Let’s say goodbye, adieu.
It’s time to say goodbye, I know that in time
It will just fade away, it’s time to say goodbye.
I stand alone and watch you fade away like clouds
High up and in the sky
I’m strong and so cold
As I stand alone
Goodbye, so long, adieu.
Oh how I love you so, lost in those memories
And now you’ve gone
I fell the pain, feeling like a fool, adieu.
My love for you burns deep
Inside me, so strong
Embers of the time we had
And now here I stand lost in a memory
I see your face and smile.

Is It Real?
Figurines that fall like leaves then disappear, keep calling
Is it real? Is it real?
Dark machines that wheeze and breathe then mock the air, appalling
What is real? What is real?
This World can really be too much
I can’t take another day
I guess that I’ve just had enough
My minds slipping faraway
I’m falling in and out of touch
Could someone please explain?
Set my mind for open sky, but couldn’t fly, so sadly
What am I? What am I?
Sullen eyes shed teadrop lies then criticize, now laughing
What is real? What is real?
It really all becomes too much
I’m not sure what I should fell
I guess l’ve finally had enough
I don’t know if this is real
I’m crashing in and out of touch
Can anyone expain?

No Reply
Like the perfect ending
It's won't be too long
Till everything I've ruined has seen me gone
In time, I pray you'll forgive
Now you know the man I am
Can you forgive me?
I fall
Like the sands of time
Like some broken rhyme
At feet no longer there
If only I could call the rain to melt and wash away the pain you feel
I would
You gave yourself to me and showed me what the truth could be
For that, I say thank you
This was my life
It never made much sense to me
With every lie that I lived
Part of me would fade
Into this empty shadow I've become
And now I feel so numb
I no longer know myself
But I still know you
I call
And there's no reply
Like some phantom cry
On ears too far away
I close my eyes and watch as my life passes by
The only thing I see is you
For all the times you walked the line for me and standing by my side
I say thank you
Here lies my life
It never felt that real to me
You'll always mean so much to me
And there's no reply
And there's no reply
You'll never know how much you mean to me
You'll always mean so much to me
And there's no reply
And there's no reply
You'll never know how much you mean to me
I close my eyes and watch as my life passes by
The only thing I see is you
For all the times you walked the line for me and standing by my side
I say thank you
You in my life
It all meant so much more to me.

Gotta Knock A Little Harder
Happiness is just a word to me
And it might have meant a thing or two
If I'd had known the difference
Emptiness, a lonely parody
And my life, another smokin' gun
A sign of my indifference
Always keepin' safe inside
Where no one ever had a chance
To penetrate or break in
Let me tell you some have tried
But I would slam the door so tight
That they could never get in
Kept my cool under a lock and key
And I never shed a tear
Another sign of my condition
Fear of love or bitter vanity
That kept me on the run
The main events at my confession
I kept a chain upon my door
That would shake the shame of Cain
Into a blind submission
The burning ghost without a name
Was still calling all the same
But I just wouldn't listen
The longer I'd call
The further I'd crawl
The further I'd crawl
the harder I'd fawll
I was crawlin' into the fire
The more that I saw
The further I'd fall
The further I'd fall
the lower I'd crawl
I kept fallin' into the fire
Into the fire
Into the fire
Suddenly it occured to me
The reason for the run and hide
Had totaled my existence
Everything left on the other side
could never be much worse than this
But I could go the distance
I face the door and all my shame
Tearin' off each piece of chain
Until they all were broken
But no matter how I tried
The other side was locked up so tight
The door it wouldn't open
Give it all that I got
And started to knock
Shouted for someone
To open the lock
I just gotta get through the door
And the more that I knocked
The hotter I got
The hotter I got
the harder I'd knock
I just gotta break through the door
Gotta knock a little harder
Gotta knock a little harder
Gotta knock a little harder
Break through the door.
