Maybe in Another Lifetime

So sad we're not together
Some things weren't meant to be
They say this is life boy
If this is life its not for me
Maybe in another lifetime
Up in the sky so far
There I'll find my true love
And I'll be dancing on a star
Met a man in a tavern
He said son why you look so sad
Her and I are not together
She left me for another man
He said "Maybe in another lifetime
Up in the sky so far
There you'll find you're true love
And you'll be dancing on a star"
There is no reason
For my heart to understand
What your love did to me
What it did to this broken man
I'll go through life my self now
Knowing the truth about you
Whatever they say girl
I wish you would have been true
There is no reason
For my heart to understand
What your love did to me
What it did to this broken man

All the Pain

I was alone filled with pain when I met her.
She liked the way I looked and she said I was cool
In my black leather too.
She said, "Let's go to my place. I'd love to make it with you."
Then I started thinking about all of the pain that you put me through.

Well we made love through the night—even in the morning too.
She had all the right moves and she did all the things
That you wouldn't do.
So I smoked a cigarette—had myself a beer.
And started thinking about you.
I started thinking about all of the pain that you put me through.

I never knew that a girl could be true
She's by my side so different than you
She loves all my music—digs all my songs
And most of all she wants to make love
All night long
But as the years go by this much is true
Its hard to believe all the pain you put me through.

Bound

Mouse was cool who I met in school
He hung out on the avenue
Pointed shoes, shark-skin suits
All the wild things he would do
Big Daddy came from the Eastside
Where he established right from the side
Call him boy once, call him boy twice
You'll find yourself flat on the ground
Yeah I was born in Cleveland Ohio
Born on the Southside of town
Abbey Avenue to Lincoln Park were the only boundries I ever found.
Louie said he'd rather be dead
Then spend another night in county jail.
Who would have thought said the cop what she bought
Lou always said it was for sale
Now Joe was sly no matter what he tried
You always knew he was a dude
He'd make you feel sad make you feel bad
Betrayals on College Avenue.
Yeah I was born in Cleveland Ohio
Born on the Southside of town
Abbey Avenue to Lincoln Park were the only boundries I ever found.
Jimmy Star liked Troy and Troy liked boys
The straight life was not for him
The only star that he'd ever been
Is the star that you see when you see a blueboy film
Jim was hazy a little crazy
All the drugs man he would do
Possession then confession
Five to ten what else could he do.
Now I was standing in the city
And the people just give me the creeps
Ambitious and addictions
Breeding jealousy and hate
So many not mentioned
So many others dead
Well they're etched in my heart
Stuck in my brain—they're always there.
Yeah I was born in Cleveland Ohio
Born on the Southside of town
Abbey Avenue to Lincoln Park were the only boundries I ever found.
Pass that bag
Pass that bag

Cats and Dogs

Told my feelings to you
Felt bad then I felt good
Desires my hunger inside
I just want to touch you
Your eyes light up the sky
During the day and at night
And when I talk to you
I just want to feel you
Cats and Dogs
Their your friends
Honey is it possible
For us to be just friends
But I will always fantasize
What its like to be inside of you
Guess its hard to describe
The beauty in and outside of you.

Cheating Years

Something can't wait
No time to hesitate
The hour is near
To end my cheating years
Now there's something I gotta do tonight
No time, no time to wait
You know I'm sorry I hurt you
I guess I hurt her too
Must be true to one
When you're in love
Others will fade
So hard to stay away
From that someone.
Makes me want to cry
Makes me want to die
My desires and my thoughts
Come to an end.
Dark secret intact
Though we made a pact
To live and let live
The end of my cheating years.

I See the World

I've been abused, kicked and burned
By every little girl that I knew.
I loved being tied, bound and gagged
In all those wild affairs I had.
I see the world
In your eyes
Can you see my world
Through your eyes
I get high and then I get low
Cocaine I lose control
But I'll follow that drug till the ends of this earth
This much darling I do know
I see the world
Through your eyes
Do you see my world
In—my eyes.
Now I'm alone all by myself
I think about where I have been
I could have been a doctor or maybe a lawyer, I don't know
Anything but this kind of life
I see the world
In your eyes
Can't you see.

Lets Go Out

I want to thank you for the toke
Next time I'll bring the smoke.
You know—we've been friends for so long
Grab your coat and comb your hair
Let's go out
You know the bar seems hot tonight
The exotic dancers are just right
You know they say they're 21
But they look 16
Drink your drink and grab my change
Let's get out
I see you in the night
I feel you in the light
Next to the shadows that take us
Up to the stars.
You know we've been driving through the night
Your black dress makes my pants feel so very tight
But by the dark of the moon
I can feel your thunder
So hold me close and make me feel like a man
So hold me closed yeah
When we come home tonight
Let's just make out.

Wasting My Time

Wasting my time thinking of you,
They say that's all I do,
If they only knew
If they only knew
If they only knew
About you
Wasting my time
With the one I'm with,
10 years ago I swear she was it,
If they only knew
If they only knew
If they only knew
About you
Wasting my time begging for freedom,
Freedom from a world you deny,
If they only knew
If they only knew
If they only knew
About us.

Were You There

Were you there when he died
Were you there when he died
Did you deny him three times
Did you here the cock crow three times
No I don't know him
No I don't know him
No I don't know him
I swear I don't know him
Were you there when he died
And did you here the cock crow three times
Now were you there when he died
I swear I saw you there when he died
He died for our sins
He died for our sins
He died for our sins
The sins of all man kind
Were you there when he died
Were you there when he died
Did you here the cock crow three times
Did you here the cock crow three times
He is the one
He is the one
He is the one
The one they call the son
