"Glory Of Love"
(originally by Willie Bryant and His Orchestra)



You've got to give a little, take a little
And let your poor heart break a little
That's the story of
That's the glory of love

You've got to laugh a little, cry a little
Before the clouds roll by a little
That's the story of
That's the glory of love

^As long as there's the two of you
You've got the world and all its charms
And when the world is through with you
You've got each other's arms

You've got to win a little
Lose a little
And always have the blues a little
That's the story of
That's the glory of love.

As long as there's the two of you
You've got the world and all its charms
And when the world is through with you
You've got each other's arms

That's the story of, that's the glory of love.

"Good Mother"

"Good Mother"


I've got money in my pocket
I like the color of my hair
I've got a friend who loves me
Got a house, I've got a car
I've got a good mother
and her voice is what keeps me here

Feet on ground
Heart in hand
Facing forward
Be yourself
I've never wanted anything
No I've, no I've, I've never wanted anything
so bad...so bad

Cardboard masks of all the people
I've been
thrown out with all the rusted, tangled
dented God Damned miseries
You could say I'm hard to hold
But if you knew me you'd know
I've got a good father
And his strength is what makes me cry

Feet on ground
Heart in hand
Facing forward
Be yourself
I've never wanted anything
No I've, no I've, I've never
wanted anything so bad...
so bad

I've got money in my pocket
I like the color of my hair
I've got a friend who loves me
Got a house, I've got a car
I've got a good mother
and her voice is what keeps me here

Feet on ground
Heart in hand
Facing forward
Be yourself

Heart in hand
Feet on ground
Facing forward
Be yourself
just be yourself
just be yourself

Feet on ground
Heart in hand
Feet on ground
Heart in hand

"Hangin' By A Thread"

"Hangin' By A Thread"


When I cry, I close my eyes
And every tear falls down inside
And I pray with all my might
that I will find my heart in someone's arms
When I cry, cry

When I cry
When I am sad I think of every awful thing I ever did
Oh When I cry, there is no love,
No there is nothing that can comfort me enough
When I cry,
Cry, cry

The salt inside my body ruins everyone I come close to
My hands are barely holding up my head
I am so tired of looking at my feet
Or all the secrets that I keep

My heart is barely hangin' by a thread
Hangin' by a thread

Oh look at me
At all I've done
I've lost so many things that I so dearly love
I lost my soul
I lost my pride
Oh I lost any hope of having a sweet life
So I cry,
Cry, cry

Oh the salt inside my body ruins everyone I come close to
My hands are barely holding up my head
Oh I'm so tired of looking at my feet
And all the secrets that I keep
My heart is barely hangin' by a thread
Hangin' by a thread

I miss you all
I wish I was with you now
I wish I was

"Hard To Be Alive"

"Hard To Be Alive"


She went up and she never came down
She left most of herself in a room across town
She poured out like whiskey to Jesus at night
Tryna find some salvation for her pitiful life

Cause it's hard to be a alive
It's so hard to be alive

He went out and he never came back
Just a sign on the door with a P.S. attached
I've gone for forgiveness, so take what you need
There's a key by the flower pot, down by your things

Cause it's hard to be a alive
It's so hard to be alive
It's rare and it's wonderful at the same time
It's hard to be alive

Twelve years old, with his head in his hands
And he's trying to estimate where he might land
It's hard to imagine why everything ends
But it's harder to realize where to begin

Cause it's hard to be a alive
It's so hard to be alive
It's rare and it's wonderful at the same time
It's hard to be alive

"Holy Moses"

"Holy Moses"


I don't know how I'll get by without you
I'll be wrecked, I'll be ruined
I don't know how I'll get past tomorrow
I bet I'll be broken open wide

I don't think I told you, I feel terrible
I've been sitting in this chair since Sunday
In the same clothes with unwashed hair
Nothing moving, I feel unusual

Holy Moses, I've been hanging over
Holy Moses, I've been burned like a cigarette
Oh Jehovah, I've been thrown a bone
And I cannot remember when I was happy

Can you feel my heart beating like a thunder ball?
Can you hear every sound
I'm making in the darkness
Without breathing
Nothing moving
I feel peculiar

I don't know, I can't tell
If I am...myself
If I was a good girl would I be here?
If I was so stupid then what was what you did?
You were not a good thing for me

Holy Moses, I've been hanging over
Holy Moses, I've been burned like a cigarette
Oh Jehovah, I've been thrown a bone
And I cannot remember when I was happy

I don't know, I can't tell
If I am...myself

"How Good Things Are"

"How Good Things Are"


I'm just living 'cause I'm obligated
I keep trying 'cause I've got to get it right
I pull the trigger but I hesitate
Lying here beside myself

I go to work 'cause I've got nothing going
I count the hours by the second in my head
The guy beside me's gonna drive me crazy
Talking 'bout his children like that

I read the paper on the bus I ride home
I see the pictures of the people who are dead
And I imagine what it must be like to
Just lay down all your debts

Everybody's gotta find a God they love
Everybody's gotta figure out the end
No one can tell you how to live forever
And who would want to in light of all of this

I go to work just to avoid tomorrow
And I'm afraid that I am losing all my hair
I told the doctor just to medicate the part of me that still is here

I'm drinking water with my whiskey these days
I'm watching William beam himself around the stars
I call my mother every second Sunday
We talk about how good things are [repeat]

La la la

"I Ain't Sinkin' Yet"

"I Ain't Sinkin' Yet"


This how is an ocean
I’ve been toasting and I’m lost
And you look through, though the window
You’ve seeing barely holding on

Yeah all capes spins round and I’m not sure that I ever be found
Ooh I lost tracking time when you left me I though I will drown
But I ain’t sinkin’ yet

As long as I got a little wind in my ceils
As long as I got a little help up to help me
As long as I feel thins thing beating down in my chest
I ain’t sinkin’ yet

Breathing every left
It’s so I remember how to do,
And then is turns down always and one more day I got it through
What doesn’t kill you just turns you better, I guess
And the way that your words still hanging like chains round my neck
But I ain’t sinkin’ yet

As long as I’ve got a little wind in my ceils
As long as I’ve got a little help up to help me
As long as I’ve feel this thing beating down in my chest
And the more that I wish you were here, the deeper it’s gets
But I’ll keep my head up with the last better straight I have left
I ain’t sinkin’ yet

The more that I wish you were here, the deeper it’s gets
But I’ll keep my head up with the last better straight I have left
I ain’t sinkin’ yet

As long as I’ve got a little wind in my ceils
As long as I’ve got a little help up to help me
As long as I’ve feel this thing beating down in my chest
No I ain’t sinkin’ yet
No I ain’t sinkin’ yet

"I Am A Town"

"I Am A Town"


I’m a town that has seen rather things
I’ve been left and forgotten
I’ve been slowly replace
All my strengths their are empty
All my windows been smashed
There’s no one left here
Just cars go and past

I am a town that once feel the sun
All my trees and my gardens
Are lay on some white house
And my church it was singing for the sinner and the snakes
Then things was left here and all go away

How could blame the most?
Nothing stays the same
How could blame the most?
Everything must change, must change,

I am a town that had seen better days
I’ve been under the weather deserve and erased
All my signs that have faded walks and cry
There’s no way left that they may come back, come back

"I Just Don't Love You Anymore"

"I Just Don't Love You Anymore"


I just don't love you
Like I used to, like before
I just don't love you
The way you want me to
No I don't love you anymore

And I've been crying

I just don't love you
Don't love you [x3]
Don't love you, anymore

You lie to me
Cry to me
Crawl on your hands and your knees begging please
Well what do you want?
What is it you need?
I've given you all that I have
I just don't love you, anymore
No, I don't love you

You pull me down
Push me around
I've had about all I can take
You fooled around
Busy doing the town
Constantly leaving your bait
Yes, I've been crying, over you
No I don't love you

You lied to me
Cried to me
Crawl on your hands and your knees begging please
Well what do you want?
What is it you need?
I've given you all that I have
I just don't love you, anymore
No I don't love you

And I've been crying

"I Know You"

"I Know You"


I know that you're sorry
I know you've been drunk all week
I know that you did not mean to
Spit out those profanities
I know you're a loser
I know you've had bad skin all your life
I also know you will never find a wife

Someone who could love someone so hard
And you are
And you are

I don't think you're ugly
I just think the world has made you weird
I doubt very much you even hear
anything I say to you
What's that on your shoulder?
Don't you know it's pulling you apart?
Every vein connected to your heart

Nobody could love someone so hard
I know you well enough to say
You need to start again
I hope you never underestimate yourself my friend
My friend

I think that you need me
Even though you tell yourself you don't
I will love you even though you won't
I will be your confidant

Won't you let me hold you?
Won't you let me kiss you on the mouth?
Oh I know you'll tell me to get out
It doesn't matter any way

I know you well enough to say
You need to start again
I hope you never underestimate yourself my friend
My friend, My friend, My friend
I know you so well
I know you so well
I know you so well
