The Opportunist

The opportunist takes away from everyone she knows
She studies what all others have and wants it for herself
Doesn’t care who she steps on
Doesn’t give a damn
The opportunist takes away from everyone
The opportunist takes away
The opportunist takes away
The opportunist takes away from everyone

35's Got You Down
02:57
|

|
So you wanna know what’s ahead
But everything now that’s been said is a question
Take the day as it comes
You’re 35, you’re in the slums
Just be a man
Oh be a man
Cover your head from the rain
Wipe it off and if it hits you
Don’t feel no pain
And don’t question 35
It’s just depression
You’ll survive
Be a man
Just be a man
Oh be a man
Just be a man
Copin’ with a bottle or a prayer
You gotta get it any how any way you can
Sink or swim
Thick as sand
Don’t be a baby
Oh, just be a man
Be a man
Just be a man
Oh be a man
Just be a man

Hey, I've Been There Too
03:34

Hey, it’s alright to shine
You won’t let him down
Hey, you said times were hard
Everybody knows it’s real
And I want you to know
I’ve been there before
Sometimes people say mean words
I saw you on the street
Looking down
And I want you to know
I’ve been there before
Coping, it’s a daily thing
Guilt for feeling good
Time to change

The Ocean
04:04

I dream about the ocean
down south to the gulf of mexico
that’s where my mama had a baby
i was born in a little town east of the biloxi wind
a town of believers
waiting on their catch from the sea
painters, potters in that place
like good people of faith
waiting for their colors to arrive from the sky, seers
the ocean is in my veins
and it’s stuck like the color red
the water comes and goes
like some people that I know
comes and goes
comes and goes
i dream about the ocean
down south to the gulf of mexico
that’s where my mama had a baby
i was born in a little town east of the biloxi wind

Leaving In My Blood
03:02

|
I’ve got leavin’ in my blood
and restless in my bones
though, this california sun has slowed me down, just like you said it would
you’ll be followed by my song
as i drive away tomorrow
moving through the shadows of the lilac trees that line your street
you said i’m like a riddle ridin’ in the wind
singin’ songs to strangers in every town i’m in
but this song that i sing is a heart that’s been broken
it weeps like a sad willow tree
i know that you’re looking for love that is lasting
so please don’t wait on me
i’ve got leavin’ in my blood
even though you’re on my mind
i’ll swallow your memory
just give me some time
you said i’m like a riddle ridin’ in the wind
singin’ songs to strangers in every town i’m in
but this song that i sing is a heart that’s been broken
it weeps like a sad willow tree
i know that you’re looking for love that is lasting
so please don’t wait on me
i’ve got leavin’ in my blood
and restless in my bones
though, this california sun has slowed me down, just like you said it

Make Everything Bright
04:40

|
A cold bottle to your lips
can you tell me what it is
that makes me want to want you
again and again
Hold on to me tightly
don’t take me lightly
turn my charm back on
til we’re all but gone
i hear a sad song behind a happy conversation
what a perfect situation
i could die like this
with a cold cold bottle to your lips
Stay with me forever
follow me back home
tell me a funny story
even if it’s wrong
Let’s get right with each other
let’s get mad at the world
let’s get under the covers
til we’re all but gone
it’s a warm warm feeling when i follow my temptation
what a perfect situation
i could die like this
with a cold cold bottle to your lips
make everything last
make everything right
make everything go away
make everything bright
with a cold cold bottle to your lips

Henry John
03:21
|

|
Alone in the dark
with colors of gold
away from the past
away from it all
But something’s not right
with the moon on my back
pulling me in
this moment won’t last
Can’t get away from the blue in your eyes
i am finally awake
the sun is so bright
starting again with the hope that’s been found
kicking me up when i was so down
henry john is here
henry john is here
The people have come
to cast out the blood
it’s crazy in here
but faith has arrived
The smiles that i see
once made me a boy
now it makes sense
i’m ready for love
Can’t get away from the blue in your eyes
i am finally awake
the sun is so bright
starting again with the hope that’s been found
kicking me up when i was so down
henry john is here
henry john is here
henry john is here
henry john is here

Blanket of Stars

Hey, don’t i know you from somewhere
Hey, don’t i know you from back there
we shared a particular moment
under a blanket of stars
mmmm
i think we were lovers at one time
it’s thick from the dust of a stage line
the curtain is dense it won’t open
pullin’ the weight world
mmmm
oh, oh
there is a piece of the broken
puzzle we put back unspoken
tellin’ me things i remember
tellin’ me things that i did
ooooo
there’s a black bedroom sheet
that covers my mind
it’s made of silk and slips through my fingers
leaving me nothin’ behind
ooooo
your pretty eyes look familiar
i’ve stared into them once before
it’s been a long time since we’ve spoken
it’s been a long time was it cold?
hey don’t i know you from somewhere
hey don’t i know you from back there
we shared a particular moment
under a blanket of stars

Unavailable Man

breathing
and a night with no tears
wouldn’t it be nice
if you were here
another
another misunderstandin’
miles away
gone again
please don’t dance with another and make her cry
please don’t kiss another and make her die
unavailable man
unavailable man
find
find it in yourself
to be so kind
and put it on a shelf
so no one
no one else will fall heavy
into your love
into your honey
please don’t dance with another and make her cry
please don’t kiss another and make die
unavailable man
unavailable man

You're A Sorry One
04:17
|
|||

Some days I wanna reach out and ask you why
Other days I wanna grab you by the hair and pull
It came as a surprise, for you, that I already knew.
I remember when you said it was wrong, when it happened to someone else
You put it aside, the convenience is working for you, how nice.
Ohhh….You’re a sorry one.
It’s easy to do when there’s nothing there
A hole so deep, no sense of care
Turn around and face the sun
One day it will happen to you and I’ll be gone.
Ohhhh…. You’re a sorry one.
So close, for so long, now you hide
It’ll be a long time, before I notice your face again
That’s fine. I know now not to call you a friend.
That’s fine, I know now that you left me for him
mmmm….You’re a sorry one.
It’s easy to do when there’s nothing there
A hole so deep, no sense of care
Turn around and face the sun
One day it will happen to you and I’ll be gone.
You’re a sorry one.
