Chasing Tomorrow

Verse 1
Someone once told me
Tomorrow's a day away
So I sit and take
In everything that they may say
But it feels inside
Like it’s gonna take years
to get here
Try to dull the pain
While I wait for things to get clear
Pre Chorus
But I know
Will come a day
When I’ll get
To hear you say
We found a way
Chorus
But I wait until the day finally comes
I wait through the moon’s phases and the setting suns
I wait for the old, new, blue, and borrowed
And I wait here
Chasing tomorrow
Verse 2
I’m tired of
All the advice some have to give
They don’t know what it’s like
to leave the one who taught you how to live
Some tell me to find
another that will
take your place
But I hear the words
you're hiding in your
heart today

Just Another Night

Verse 1
Watching
Waiting
Another one passes by
Turned on
Turned down
Another lonely soul cries
Ask you
Tell me
Why do they even try
Hopes up
Shot down
Shaking their heads, "why?"
Chorus
Just another night
waiting for your lover
Another long day
They spend with another
Just another night
You tell her you love her
Another long day
Why do you bother
Verse 2
Sitting
Spinning
Watching the world pass by
Living
Breathing
Knowing it's all a lie
Help me
Save you
Another song I cry
Reaching
Grasping
For a reason not to die
Chorus
Just another night
you're driving away
Another long day
Nothing left to say
Just another night
You swore that you loved her
Another sad day
You gave it all away

Give Me A Reason To Stay

Verse
“Don’t go!” he screams
at the top of his lungs
as her train is pulling away
The sweat pours down his back
As he races the train
To try and catch her attention
Pre-Chorus
But he’s forced to watch her go
His legs carried him way too slow
As his life is pulling away with his dreams
Along with all his dreams
"Just go" it seems
is at the top of the rung
of the list of all of her needs
As the train runs down the track
she closes her eyes
just to break the tension
Pre-Chorus
But little does he know
She wouldn’t let her tear drops show
As her life is pulling apart
At the seams
She screams
Chorus
“Why won’t you
Give me a reason to stay
Please, I beg you,
don’t let me go away”
I need you and
I know you need me too
But I just can’t take
The time we waste
Please, I pray,
give me a reason to stay
Bridge
Now the distance in their hearts
Is measured out in tracks
He can hear the whistle blowin'
“She ain't never coming back”
"You waited far too long"
She whispers in her sleep
Please tell me
Chorus
“Why won’t you
Give me a reason to stay
Please, I beg you,
don’t let me go away”
I need you and I know you need me too
But I just can’t take
The time we waste
Please, I pray,
give me a reason to stay
