Lions

I’ve had some time to tame the lions I lay with;

Raise the curtains that keep me fenced in.

This worry’s no longer your fear,

Your shadow’s no longer here,

And I am the only sun.

It’s hard to say but you’re not the only one.

Forever For You

 

We’ve all got a song we need to sing to somebody,

This is me singing to you.

There’s not much left to go by,

But I’d go anywhere for you.

Time is just a margin,

Invisible insignificant,

If you asked me to,

I’d wait here forever for you.

I’ll Miss You (Good Riddance)

Their masks are painted on,

But it takes too long,

To wash their faces clean.

It’s such a sad song,

Plays all night long,

And when he wakes up she’ll be history.

Good riddance, baby.

 

I’ve never been good at good byes,

Never been one for good byes.

You make it easy, I’ll say I’ll miss you

But it’s easy to lie.

 

Her dances are cheap,

But it’s all too brief,

His taste is one never satisfied.

I see it now, I see.

It neither one of you, it’s me,

Who needs to find more in this life.

Good riddance, baby.

 

I’ve never been good at good byes,

Never been one for good byes.

You make it easy, I’ll say I’ll miss you

But it’s easy to lie.

 

Oh, I bet it was easy to lie.

Good riddance, baby.

Good riddance, baby.

But it’s easy to lie.

 

I’ve never been good at good byes,

Never been one for good byes.

You make it easy, I’ll say I’ll miss you

But it’s easy to lie.

 

Goodbye

Like what you see in the candle light?

Good riddance, baby.
