DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN TIME STOOD STILL AND WE’D JUST LAY HERE WIDE AWAKE AND YOU WOULD TELL ME THINGS YOU WOULDN’T TELL NO ONE AND I’D LAUGH RIGH TIN YOUR FACE AND I’D FEEL BAD AND YOU’D JUST FEEL ASHAMED BUT I DON’T MEAN NO HARM NO BABY DON’T GET MAD AND IT’S ALL THAT I CAN DO TO KEEP FROM CRYING TO KEEP FROM SCREAMING OUT ALL I PUT YOU THROUGH I FEEL BAD AND YOU JUST FEEL ASHAMED YEAH I SAID SOME DAMN FOOL THINGS I’M SURE I’VE CROSSED THE LINE BUT YOU KNOW THAT MY HEART WON’T BEAT UNLESS YOUR HEART IS MINE

Where we go from here Dug myself in so much deeper Any man should fear I never felt a penny cheaper I thought my chains were bound I could’ve sworn my heart was spoken King has come uncrowned The kingdom sold, the promise broken there’s something here that just ain’t right I’m going down without a fight I should’ve shown the sorrow The bitter in the blood But I won’t say I felt the shame I was drowning in the flood I walked among the tide the currents play as deep as shallows the warnings swept aside I dance the dance that draws the gallows I swim the swimmer’s dream the clutch below begin to find me you whisper in the stream and oh, god help, the ties that bind me there’s something here that just ain’t right I’m going down without a fight I should’ve shown the sorrow The bitter in the blood But I won’t say I felt the shame I was drowning in the flood

Look at the lines on my face Reflection in the glass I felt every wound I've heard every tune The knives in my back will last Now it's hard to forgive and move on I know that I'm far from grace But I've never done you wrong What did I deserve Did I strike a nerve I guess I'm just headstrong Now it's hard to forgive and move on The years go by but time's slow turning I guess I'll just hang here Some go on but I'm still burning Maybe one day I'll see it clear But it's hard to forgive and move on

Someone else can do the things I do for you Give me time, there’s so much more I need to do Someone else can get the dog hair off the floor And set me free to do things no one did before Who's gonna sing to the cows? When I'm gone Someone else can do the cooking for a day I could sit down it doesn't have to be my way Someone else.can do the shopping for a week It's not that hard, it's not a skill that is unique Who's gonna sing to the cows? When I'm gone I'm still around there has to be an end in sight It breaks my heart to have my needs become a fight I'll be forgotten because you never say my name Unless you're sad, and it will never be the same Who's gonna sing to the cows? When I'm gone away

Days before we lost you I thought Id be a mess when you were gone The sickness it had taken you Deep inside I always knew that you’d be moving on On the day you left us I was as solemn as a bible verse you made your own I knew you’d lived a long long time Like in the movies in the end its time to go Hold your head up Hold your head up high you said I viewed you like the savior of the world So unstoppable when I was just a child You carried yourself brilliantly I wanted to be just like you one day when I grew up Hold your head up Hold your head up high you said I put you on a pedestal You were always high above me Now you are at peace from the world Sleeping silently within your death I told myself I’d see you once again Somewhere down the line when I take my final breath I put you on a pedestal You were always high above me

Played it cool, having fun Take the slowboat to oblivion Laughs at midnight, music loud Why be serious live for now Isn’t that the way Until that day It was just good fun the Day love snuck up Snuck up on me! It was all mixed up the Day love snuck up Snuck up on me! Snuck up on me! Moved away w just a kiss Woke to find that I’m not over you - not a bit! Hard to see what you got Take me back let’s make a new start

Stuck in the heat of roads uncontrolled I didn’t know I was in hell So much time in fire and my skins acclimate I’d fallen into a dry spell What was a shelter from the squall Turned into the deepest hole I had And I threw myself in to keep you And Forgot the key to the latch Bridge. Am I connected to you still? You will live in my mind Seasons changing down here Many suns are setting Just as many rise Chorus. New season Day and night will be equal soon Hidden signals in my mind I didn’t know but it let me go What pulled on me from behind My mind is lifted as roots run deep And with the family tree in tow I can feel a purpose gifted I gave it away so I could keep my new word Down here you can see it grow

So what if I just wanna stay home tonight? what if I just wanna be alone? what if I can't find the words to tell you "no?" What if I don't know what to think of myself? what if I don't want to fight anymore? what if I'm scared you'll walk right out of the door? Cause you don't know what you're asking of me the things you stole they weren't yours to keep all the lies that I chose to believe sleepless nights trading demons for dreams (ooo) So what if I finally found the strength to say "what if it's better to be alone?" what if it's time we go on, on our own? Cause you don't know what you're asking of me the things you stole they weren't yours to keep all the lies that I chose to believe sleepless nights trading demons for dreams (ooo) Cause you don't know what you're asking of me the things you stole they weren't yours to keep all the lies that I chose to believe sleepless nights trading demons for dreams (ooo)

I want to be your secret lover hidden in your covers acting like we barely know each other I want to wake you up at midnight bathe you in the moonlight And kiss your weary body back to life I want to learn all of your secret words and say them I want to pick out all your secret notes and play them I want to be your fantasy I want to be your dream I want to see a side of you that no one's ever seen I want to see your fantasy cast in red as I fan the flame of the desire you never knew you had I want to taste to you like champagne bubble sweet sugar cane like breathless summer love caught in the rain I want to feel to you like red wine infiltrating your mind welcome poison coursing coiling serpentine I want to learn all of your secret rules and break them I want to know all of your virgin thoughts and take them I want to be your fantasy I want to be your dream I want to see a side of you that no one's ever seen I want to see your fantasy cast in red as I fan the flame of the desire you never knew you had I want to be your fantasy I want to be your dream I want to see a side of you that no one's ever seen I want to see your fantasy cast in red as I fan the flame of the desire you never knew you had

Low in Idaho Here I am at a formal affair Wrinkled suit and a devil may care People around me feeling so sad They look like their crying But their making me laugh Waiting at the corner for a Bus to take me home Taking it slow and Feeling kind of low in Idaho Woe is Me i put my foot in my mouth My indiscretion is leaning me south I’m sticking out like a sore thumb 2 left feet and I’m on the run Waiting at the corner for a Bus to take me home Taking it slow and Feeling kind of low in Idaho

v1: I know that I should be a little madder than I am right now I'm as surprised as you at the words coming out of my mouth But when I let it get to me, it only seems to drag me down Sometimes there's nothing left of me, but I need to tell you now Need to tell you now ch: That worry won't change a thing Might as well stand out in the pouring rain Whatever life may bring The fact remains that worry won't change a thing v2: It's clear to me that you've been wronged, and you won't let it go Somebody needs to pay, take it from one who knows It might feel right to plan and plot your revenge But give up that fight, it's the good move in the end It's true, my friend ch: Your anger won't change a thing Might as well stand out in the pouring rain Whatever life may bring The fact remains that anger won't change a thing br: But you're proud of the life you live You won't budge, but something's got to give ch: Your pride won't change a thing Might as well stand out in the pouring rain Whatever life may bring The fact remains that pride won't change a thing

about

Here’s Dean Driver’s assignment for you:

"Think back to a moment in your life when your emotions betrayed you or surprised you. Maybe you found yourself on the verge of tears for no apparent reason, or you burst out in laughter at a most inappropriate moment. Whatever the scene, use that moment to create your song.”
