I am gone now
I'm leaving you
behind now
I can think for myself
I'll carry my own weight
I don't need your excuses
So don't wait around for me
Don't leave me a raft
Just go
and don't call me back
I am alone now
You are last night's
story now
Cause I'm independent
I'll make my own choices
and I don't need your excuses
So don't leave a light for me
Don't leave me a raft
Just go
and don't call me back
I am free now
I have myself to
blame now
for my actions
It's responsibility
and I don't need your excuses
So don't say a prayer for me
Don't leave me a raft
Just go
and don't call me back
I am strong now
My strength is from
within now
You can't knock me down
I'm writing my own story
and I don't need your excuses
So don't feed the fire for me
Don't leave me a raft
Just go
and don't call me back

Never Find

I gaze across at you
Why is this all so hard?
You glance up and down at me
Then turn and walk away
Next day I walk across
The bridge of fantasy
What would have happened
If you were more like me?
I want to hide what I feel inside
I don't want anyone to find
I want to hide on the inside
If I bury it deep you'll never find
Time goes on,
I've met another one
I used to be but
I'm no longer flying
And now I've somehow got here
in this same old place
Complacency wears me down
and there's no way I can stay

I was contemplating my reasons to live
My dreams and my thoughts collide
Reality throws me back for more
And there is nowhere I can hide
My mind is full of weight
I start to gravitate
Towards denial and its ways
But fairy tales can't save me today
The chances I've been given
The chances I'll create
The ones I left behind
The ones I choose to take
What day is it?
Time past mid day
I check my messages
and delay
This time I'll stay awake
Spend my day in quiet solace
Lying here on my side
Never get bored of my inner strife
The chances I've been given
The chances I'll create
The ones I left behind
The ones I chose to take
Now look me in the eyes and tell me that you see
I want it all and I want it now
Sign up now and join with me
My one man army needs your support
Don't be shy I don't discriminate
Fight for me and I'll reward you
The chances I've been given
The chances I'll create
The ones I left behind
The chance is yours to take

The River

The way I'm going
I'm always sick of waiting
So I keep on running
I'm running, running
The way I'm running
Is never how I want to
But it doesn't matter
At least I'm moving
The way I'm moving
It feels like all I'm doing
Is going around in circles
And time is wasting
The way it's wasting
Is 'cause I keep on changing
I just keep on jumping
From one thing to the next
Well this river is moving
And time keeps on choosing for itseslf
Streams end up dead
But my nature cares for itself
Time flows away
And time only waits for itself
So this river keeps on moving
Things aren't improving
Attention gets diverted
Motives get subverted
But they'll be back
There's something always driving
But I never find it
'Cause it always takes me
Where I like
Dreamers like dreaming
Workers like doing
I like both
And that's my flaw
But who doesn't
Everyone's the same
And like everyone else
I like wasting time
It's the way that I am
A lack of patience
So I keep on changing
And I show no restraint
The way I'm going
I'm always so impatient
So I'll keep on running
Just running, running
The way I'm running
Is slower than I want to
But it doesn't matter
At least I'm moving on
