Running

Inadequate
Doesn't quite measure up
Bottom Shelf
Back room
Out of date
Useless

You could have
You should have
You might have

Beaten and worn and I feel like hell
I hope this look doesn't have a smell
Everything is backwards
Everything is wrong
Days are running into nights
Nights are running so very long

The negative comments
Are so frequent
The are so damaging
I cannot recover quick enough
Each time
Is like another
Another lash of a whip
I am bleeding
Profusely

Always, Again

I'm mean and sharp
Like broken glass
I'm full of hate 
And I've got no class
Rude and foul
Nasty and crass
I believe I'm a royal pain in the ass
Don't like the demon that lives in my soul
It takes an extreme exacting toll
Want to run and hide
Hang my head in shame
All the while I'm looking to blame
Someone, someone, anyone but me
I look in my soul and what do I see
An evil motherfucker looking back at me
Been haunting me for years
I can't run away
I can't run away
I can't run away

Caught

Waves of emotion
Come over me
Completely out of the blue
Heart starts racing and thumping
Nothing that I can do
Caught in a relentless storm
No shelter to be found
Lightening is striking
Dark heavy Sky's
Crashing down all around
Frozen by fear
Can't move or I'll fall
Wondering why
Why it happened at all

Troubled

Mean and nasty, so full of hate
I have to rush, I can't be late
I'm a rotten example 
A pain in the ass
I'm thoughtless and selfish
I have no class
I get as mad as a chainsaw
At the drop of a hat
Cannot control it
That's where I'm at
Mean and nasty, so full of hate
I wonder.........
What it is like to be kind and thoughtful
Pleasant to be around
I wonder........

Out of Tune

I'm stuck in a song where I don't belong
Like an out of place note
Got a hole in my tote
Got a hair on my nose
Don't know how to pose
Stuck in a song where I don't belong
Out of tune or out of touch
Don't seem like it takes to much
To sing the wrong song
An hour or a day
Possibly two if you may
But I'm gonna sing out of tune
In a song where I don't belong

Past

Chasing memories
Chasing ghosts
Chasing dreams
Eating toast
Don't know what to look for
Maybe it's already been found
Looking for music
Seeing the sound
Trying to see what is in my soul
Is there any hope
Or just a deep dark hole
I feel not right
I feel not well
I hope 
I do not
End up
In hell

To Much

I talk to much
I talk but I don't have much to say
I talk to much
I thought I had something to say
Echos in an empty bucket
I talk to much
I think I have something to say
Echos from the past
I want to have something to talk about
Echos in the dark
But I have nothing to say
I talk to much
