What Tomorrow Will Bring
03:39

When I wake up in the morning, I wonder what I’ll find
Just another new day dawning, or maybe the end of time
And will you still be here beside me, I can’t help but think of these things
When I wonder what tomorrow will bring
There’s a man on the corner with a cup out in his hand
It’s a kinder gentler America that has helped him understand
That he’s free to stand there in the cold with the hunger blues he sings
And I wonder what tomorrow will bring
The whole world’s getting warmer now or so some people say
But we don’t want to believe them if it means we got to change our ways
So we close our eyes and just keep walking and pretend we don’t see a thing
And I wonder what tomorrow will bring
(Bridge)
And I know the time will come when we must reap what we sow
And there’s a price that we will pay for messing with things that we don’t know
And every day I sit here I just can’t help wondering
What tomorrow will bring, what tomorrow will bring
The ground’s shaking beneath me, is it an earthquake or a bomb
Or just another broken promise of better things to come
Oh won’t you stay with me tonight girl, I just can’t face all of our sins
And I wonder what tomorrow will bring
And I wonder what tomorrow will bring
And I wonder what tomorrow will bring

Salt on the Wound
03:47
|
|||
|
They say old soldiers never die
They go to a special place in the sky
But then don’t suicide bombers too?
How is one supposed to know what’s true
(Chorus)
When everyone wants a shiny medal on their chest
And a glorious epitaph upon their tomb
For pouring salt on the wound
The black man stands up for his right
To walk the streets safely at night
But when the police show on the scene
They beat him back down to his knees
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
In the land of the free and in the home of the brave
Liberty simply means that injustice rules the day
And so the homeless search for food
While the rich fly to the moon
And cleanse their dirty blood-stained hands
With another generous donation
(Chorus)
For pouring salt on the wound
That’s what they do
They pour salt on the wound

Just Another Day
02:31
|
|||
|
My car’s run out of gas and my body’s out of food
I’m in the middle of nowhere and I don’t know what to do
I need a helping hand, everybody passes by
The rain begins to fall, that ain’t no surprise
(Chorus)
It’s just another day (x4)
I finally found the place I thought I wanted to go
Only find I must've took the wrong road
I hear strange voice, feel a gun in my back
Says “Give me all your money!” I just had to laugh
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
It’s just another day of staring out through these bars
Another day of wondering where you are
Another day of feeling nothing but the bruising
Another day of losing
So you can call me what you want, you can scream at me all night
We can put on the gloves if you really wanna fight
You can say you never loved me, you can pack your bags and leave
Hey, it’s all the same to me
(Chorus)

Someone Like Me
02:53
|
|||
|
There’s always an angel calling your name
There’s always somebody else to blame
There’s always someone like me
There’s always a tear at will in your eye
You pull that trigger whenever you lie
Aiming at someone like me
Someone like me, down on his knees
Someone like me, so eager to please
There’s always an answer to questions unasked
There’s always someone to forgive the past
There’s always someone like me
Someone like me, down on his knees
Someone like me, so eager to please
Someone like me, down on his knees
Someone like me, so willing to bleed
There’s always an angel calling your name
There’s always somebody else to blame
There’s always someone like me
Someone like me
Someone like me

How I Wish
02:02
|
|||
|
I’d like to find the fool who said a broken heart will always mend with time
I’m searching for tomorrow but it’s always yesterday that I find
And now I don’t know what to do
All I think about is you
And how you swore that you were mine
But it was just another lie
Oh how I wish that you would die
I try to fight the urge to out walking past your window late at night
Afraid of seeing something I don’t really want to see through those blinds
And now I don’t know what to do
All I think about is you
Wrapped around some other guy
After all I’ve been denied
Oh how I wish that you would die
I sit here with my brush and canvass painting over memories of you
What started out in crimson has now slowly turned a deep shade of blue
And now I don’t know what to think
So I pour another drink
And tell myself that I feel fine
But it’s just another lie
Oh how I wish that I would die, die, die, die, die.

Daddy's Little Girl
03:32
|
|||
|
Marching through the streets in her combat boots
She’s looking like someone with something to prove
Dancing to the rhythm of a different beat
She wears her attitude on her feet
You’ll never see her in a pretty pink dress
Cause that’ll never get her any respect
She says her daddy never gave her a chance
If I were you I wouldn’t ask that girl to dance
(Chorus)
Cause she ain’t gonna be daddy’s little girl
No more, no more
Marching through the streets with a chip on her shoulder
Cause daddy doesn’t want her to get any older
She’s out to prove she can do her own thing
By getting out from under daddy’s wing
She’s trying hard to put the past behind her
It’s got a way of coming back to find her
Memories of the girl she used to be
When will everybody finally see
(Chorus)
Marching through the streets looking for a revolution
Or any other kind of solution
She says she ain’t never ever going back
She’ll never let him see all the strength she lacks
(Chorus)

Seven More Days
03:02
|
|||
|
Seven more days, that’s all I got
Seven more days, it ain’t a lot
To remake my whole self for eternity
For seven more days I just gotta believe
(Chorus)
They say God made the world in six
I wish I knew some of his tricks
But until I do then ... I need seven more days
Seven more days til I'm finally free
Seven more days with the old flawed me
I'm gonna turn it all around, that's what I'm gonna do
Just seven more days I gotta make it through
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven more days to find the part that’s missing
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven more days ‘til I can finally start living
Seven more days, but who’s counting
Seven more days ‘til a new beginning
I’m gonna turn it all around, you just wait and see
Only seven more days ‘til the brand new me
(Chorus)
Seven more days
Seven more days
Seven more days
That’s all I need

Razor's Edge
03:57
|
|||
|
I might be walking on a thin line
But I’m sure not walking straight
Tried to leave something behind me
Maybe I left it a bit too late
Can’t seem to get my head clear
Don’t always feel like getting out of bed
(Chorus)
I’m walking on a razor’s edge
I’m walking on a razor’s edge
There’s a world I’d like to wash away
But I’ve nothing to replace it with
So I pour myself another drink
So I don’t have to face it
I’ve spoken words that I thought I meant
But no one listened to a word I said
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
There’s something that we should have
Something to make the whole damn world laugh
What’s wrong with this picture
I’d like to turn the world upside down
Do you think that that would fix it
To make a smile out of a frown
Can’t seem to find a how-to book
To organize the chaos in my head
(Chorus)

Another World
03:23
|
|||
|
Show me a world of wisdom
A world not living just to die
Show me a world of laughter
A world not crying all the time
(Chorus)
Won’t someone show me
Someone please show me
What that world’s like
Show me a world of passion
A world where eyes are burning bright
Show me some indication
Of a world that cares what’s right
(Chorus)
Show me a world of justice
A world not ruled by military might
Show me love and understanding
And not this world full of hate and spite
(Chorus)

Life’s a long and winding road
Where it’s going nobody knows
You think it’s straight ‘til it throws you a curve
Put the pedal to the metal cause haven’t you heard
(Chorus)
It’s million miles across Texas
On the road that never ends
A million miles across Texas
It’s driving me around the big bend
My eyes are wide and my foot’s on the gas
I think I know where I’m going at last
I’m making tracks for the promised land
But there’s just one thing you got to understand
(Chorus)
I’ve been driving twenty-four hours straight
I hear he’s waiting for me at the pearly gates
I never thought it would take this long
But still this road it goes on and on
(Chorus)
