Sometimes By John CarterWell it's been another year of waiting Waiting for the right time to say That everything in me is falling apart That everything isn't okay Sometimes my life isn't all that it seems Sometimes I'm coming apart at the schemes Sometimes I do things I don't want to do Sometimes I cry in the night over you Over you Well it's been another week of disaster Just one more week to get through Believing when you say you love me The words on your lips are the truth Sometimes the words are more than they mean Sometimes I'm coming apart at the schemes Sometimes I do things I don't want to do Sometimes I cry in the night over you Over you I look in the mirror I have to laugh I used to feel so strong I look at you I have to laugh You don't even know you're a song Well it's been another day of frustration I'm angry for hurting my heart But know that it never was you, dear It seems it's been me from the start Sometimes I can't seem to live out my dreams Sometimes I'm coming apart at the schemes Sometimes I do things I don't want to do Sometimes I cry in the night over you Over you...

Today By John CarterI can see your future Cause I'm part of your past But even I could not foresee If any of this will last I know it's not easy But believe when I say I can't promise tomorrow But I love you today Now, I know that history Will paint me as hard But I live with these feelings I cannot discard I know it's not easy But believe when I say I can't promise tomorrow But I love you today I've said it before So the words come off cheap And I've never been one To practice what I preach I know you've been wronged But I swear that I'll stay I'll promise tomorrow If you'll love me today...

You Are By John CarterYou are the rain I realize That hides behind My sunshine eyes You are the pain The doubt in me Why is it that I can't break free From the moment that we met I knew I was gonna spend my life With you And time was on my side I masked over my pride I tried and tried and fucking tried You are the rain I realize That hides behind My sunshine eyes You are the pain The doubt in me Why is it that I can't break free From the moment that we met I knew That a moment later We'd be through But time was on my side I kept my stupid pride I lied and lied and fucking lied You are the rain I realize That hides behind My sunshine eyes You are the pain The doubt in me Why is it that I can't break free?

To all of you considering a career change, I recommend crime. It's America's largest growth industry, there's no Union, and your competition tends to be even dumber than you are. Plus, there's unequalled job security- If you choose to become a bank robber, for example, you know the bank won't be shipped overseas to be robbed for less by cheaper foreign labor. Not to mention the fact that from there, it's an easy jump to the world of Politics, where there's no actual work to be done once you've mastered the handshake. Beware though, there's considerably more competition for these jobs, as our elected officials have already shown that any idiot can do the job. Side benefits include the graft and corruption, as well as the standard debauchery. Extra debauchery if your last name happens to begin with a "K" and end with an "ennedy".

Maybe By John CarterYou ask me for an answer And I say I don't know You tell me I'm a fool But I don't think so You always need your solace You need to know the truth I tell you there's no sure thing But you still need the proof I don't know, But maybe Maybe losers Are the better for it all Maybe winners See their pride before the fall Maybe preachers Are the ones who lost their way Maybe sinners Maybe they make better saints You tell me I'm no help You say I've given up But I know with the answers The questions still don't stop You'll never know it all You'll die upon your cross So searching for the truth May really be your loss I don't know, But maybe Maybe losers Are the better for it all Maybe winners See their pride before the fall Maybe preachers Are the ones who lost their way Maybe sinners Maybe they make better saints I don't know But maybe...

Sympathy By John CarterLet me bite my tongue For fear I'll say What's now begun Is a mistake Your sympathy Is killing me This tragedy Is because of me I realize Though my heart denies I just can't describe How I feel inside The things I do The things I say What I put you through How you make my day Your sympathy Is killing me This tragedy Is because of me I realize Though my heart denies I just can't describe How I feel inside

You Don't Know Me By John CarterWords lose their meaning When crying and screaming The forces that tear us apart The truth of the matter I'm broken and battered And better off breaking your heart You don't know me If you did you wouldn't stay No, you don't know me Is it better off that way? If you knew me like you say You would turn and walk away Counting paces till you turn and gun me down I have hurt you before And you've evened the score But I'm sure this will strike a new nerve I am so overwhelmed I am burning in hell Rest assured, I'll get what I deserve You don't know me If you did you wouldn't stay No, you don't know me Is it better off that way? If you knew me like you say You would turn and walk away Counting paces till you turn and gun me down You don't know me You don't know me at all But it's OK I'll be content to take the fall You don't know me If you did you wouldn't stay No, you don't know me Is it better off that way? If you knew me like you say You would turn and walk away Counting paces till you turn and gun me down No, you don't know me...

Deja Vu By John CarterAnother crash and burn upon the doorstep Of the happy ending that I could have had Another rape-the-willing conversation At this temperamental turning point again Welcome back I'd almost swear I know you Welcome back It seems so familiar The crisis, the thrill, yeah This must be deja vu Another synonym for trepidation Awaits my weakened eyes when I get home I'll read your diary to find a mention Of my name, it keeps me warm when I'm alone Welcome back I'd almost swear I know you Welcome back It seems so familiar The crisis, the thrill, yeah This must be deja vu I could have sworn I know you I could have sworn we were through I could have sworn that you're the one who cut me loose I'll try to get it right the next time through This must be deja vu

Me for Me By John Carter
I am not a hamster and my life is not a wheel I will not rely on someone else for my next meal I will not be content to sit and wait to die alone Or lie beside a lover who I know is not my own
I don't need a companion, only sometimes need a friend I hold no disillusions of a lover till the end I cannot be disloyal if there is no one to betray And I cannot live in hope of some imaginary day
I am not afraid of stepping up or stepping down But I will not be a savior, cannot wear this thorny crown Maybe I am less than you believe that I can be But love me now or love me not, try loving me for me
