Flattered

this load i cannot bear
when pride just weighs you down
in your guilt i will not share
if you won’t stick around
to face your demons, try to believe in
something other than what you’re seeing
i got no score to settle but you better bet i’ll battle
to get back in the saddle that i’ve been taken out of
i know which side i’m on
but up and down get a bit confused
and right is sometimes wrong
depending on your point of view
many things i’ve laid my head upon
but regret and i just don’t get along
i got no score to settle but you better bet i’ll battle
to get back in the saddle that i’ve been taken out of
not broken but rattled, bruised and a little scattered
many stories, mine’s sadder, you’re so sorry,
i’m so flattered
oceans of regret
fall on deserts of indifference
time has had her way by now
and jaded hope’s last witness
you’re not a solver, you’re a hider
i’m not a crawler, i’m a fighter
they got my soul in a choke-hold
but my goal was to break molds
now i’m cold
and unfaithful and i forgot what i came for
i invested so heavy in dreams and you get,
you get what you pay for

Bite Your Tongue

everyday i’m payin’ somethin’ to steal
a look behind the curtain
pretty certain nothin’ good is waitin’ for me
pretty tragic when the love was nothing magic
and you find it’s just a game of wait and see
it’s only pain when you choose to suffer
but then again most don’t even bother
disaster and despair around the corner
when the latter meets the former
well you know that’s where i’m always gonna be
simple people simple pleasures
when we embarked on this endeavor
your mind was as made up as could be
it’s one more story, yeah one more sad account
of untold glory and the truth ya don’t want out
speak, speak in humble phrases
blush, blush when looked upon
bow, bow your head in silence babe
and bite, bite, bite your tongue
i got ample room to amble in this
shack that’s all in shambles
as i’m ramblin’ about free samples that i never got
a bit of a break in the banter
and slanderous enchantments
real-life reenactments of @#$! that never happened
livin’ in the lower levels of lessened moral treble
my heart’s a bit broken, head’s a bit bedeviled
as i sell myself on fables that i’ve lived like such a rebel
without the balls to put my cards up on the table
holdin’ on i know we just might
make it through to the other side
in spite of all the years we tried
ya know it’s just not fair to cry
believing together we’d hold on forever
in spite of this pressure we just might make it out alright

Dejando Huellas

ay, que me dan vida ay, que me dan vida
ay, que me dan vida esos besos que me das
ella me llega tal como la madrugada
con bastante calma y siempre con calor
dulcemente se mete entre mis sueños y mi alma
iluminando los rincones y sembrando su amor
elévame, llevame dondequiera
iremos tu y yo dejando huellas
en la arena de la playa soledad
ven, ven reina mía
ven, ven mi corazón
ven, ven, santa maría
con todo amor
poco a poco yo me voy dando cuenta
que eres tú la que siempre buscaba
bajo un sol inexorable
eres tú mi viento nena mi libertad
reina mía, agua fría
ven y sálvame de esta vida
solo quiero que tú te quedes
que me ames noche y día

Who We Try To Be

i’m prepared for indignation
i’m prepared for empty threats
i’m prepared for tears and frustration
but i was never ready for anything like this
now and then it seems to me
that no one’s sayin’ what they mean
i’m expecting complications
i’m expecting some regret
i’m expecting confrontations
from you my dear i have come to expect nothing less
now and then it seems to me
that no one’s sayin’ what they mean
in spite of who we try to be
we still just wind up you and me
you gotta say your “sorry’s” and
“i love you’s” while you can
lay low up on the ladder
so when you fall they’ll understand
i’m awaiting exploitations
i’m awaiting some duress
i’m awaiting miscommunication
but i never i never imagined now
that it would go like this
you gotta say your “sorry’s” and
“i love you’s” while you can
lay low up on the ladder so when you
fall they’ll understand
don’t put a price on your peace of mind
‘cause justice sometimes peeks my friend
and love ain’t always blind
