The world is a dark and scary place But its got nothing on me The souls of most people are pure disgrace But they’ve got nothing on me A slime has come and spread around On everything you see It grabs you up without a sound But its got nothing on me   The heart of man turned black long ago But he’s got nothing on me True compassion is rarely shown But false eyes have got nothing on me When love becomes all about the sex Or what you’ll do for free I’m pulling out, this hand is yours But you’ve got nothing on me   I’m looking out for clarity Another soul who’s seeking company I’ll search until my hope is gone and I’m in poverty Cause hate may be all that’s roaming here But it’s got nothing on me   The people pass by a dying man Their greed’s got nothing on me I'll stop to give him a helping hand Cause pride’s got nothing on me I know that they don’t ever help Cause they hate to receive The feeling that they can’t help themselves But that’s got nothing on me

Jacqueline 03:50
Jacqueline I know your face, I know your heart, I've seen your grace But I need to know if there's a you and me   Jacqueline I know you well But where we're headed I can't tell And I need to know If we will ever be   I want to make it very clear the time for truth is drawing near   Jacqueline yes I love you But what am I supposed to do When the unknown Fills me up with fear   I've lost all feeling, my blood's congealing I'll soon be reeling, below this ceiling My head is falling, The end is calling I'll soon be galling you   You'll see it over the veneer The time for grief is drawing near   Jacqueline yes I loved you But what was I supposed to do When all my love couldn't keep you here   I've lost all feeling, my blood's congealing I'll soon be reeling below this ceiling My head is falling, the end is calling I'll soon be galling you

All My Life 02:43
I can see you I can touch you I can love you Like I never could   This is real This is right I’m awake now You’re here tonight   Cause all my life I’ve dreamed of this Dreamed of you, your eyes, your kiss All my life I’ve dreamed of this Dreamed of you, my love   I won’t leave you Never could Even then I never would   I’m here with you A heart to keep Not just when I’m Fast asleep   Cause all my life I’ve dreamed of this Dreamed of you, your eyes, your kiss All my life I’ve dreamed of this Dreamed of you, my love All my life All my life I’ve dreamed of you my love

I looked to find my friends But no one was here this time around I looked for my lover But she’s already in the ground   Its some divine comedy that I’m stuck here on my own So go on God laugh at me, take those close to me on home   I looked to find my sanity But it had betrayed me long ago I looked to find ecstasy But what’s it worth if you are all alone   Its some divine comedy that I’m stuck here on my own So go on God laugh at me, take those close to me on home

Formerly I asked you to go It was a silly thing, and I hurt you I know But I’ve been thinking about that choice And now I’m listening to the voice in my head   Formerly I thought I could fly But not one time did I dare to try And my hearts filled with regret But maybe I’ll yet, I’ve yet to try   End this tune of sorrow in my head Find me a cave in which to die Calm the woes and silence words unsaid Take me where the mountains meet the sky Take me where the mountains meet the sky    Formerly I was toeing the line But recently my ambitions been blind I know some day I’ll fall But Its cause I’m standing tall above the ground End this tune of sorrow in my head Find me a cave in which to die Calm the woes and silence words unsaid Take me where the mountains meet the sky Take me where the mountains meet the sky
