Guitar (Lyrics)

Sitting there with the guitar I can't play
Singing songs that I don't really know
Living a life of freedom and fame
Except that life isn't rightfully my own

I betcha don't know just how this feels
Being relaxed and calm
You're always so busy that you can't even talk
Your always so busy that you couldn't ever know

Ideas float through my head
Jotting them down in the dark 
Music flows through my door and windows
So I'm not always alone

I betcha don't know just how this feels
Being relaxed and calm
You're always so busy that you can't even talk
Your always so busy that you couldn't ever know

Lights turn off as the deep city calms
My mind is still wide awake
Everyone seems to see me here
But without you I feel alone

I betcha don't know just how this feels
Being relaxed and calm
You're always so busy that you can't even talk
Your always so busy that you couldn't ever know

9:41 and you just awoke
You finally finally finally
Remember to call
But when all you get is voicemail

I betcha don't know just how this feels
Being relaxed and calm
You're always so busy that you can't even talk
Your always so busy that you couldn't ever know

I call back as the city awakes
You forgot the time change
I tell you about the guy I like
And you tell me he better treat me well

I betcha don't know just how this feels
Being relaxed and calm
You're always so busy that you can't even talk
Your always so busy that you couldn't ever know

Sitting there with the guitar I can't play
Singing songs that I don't really know
Living a life of freedom and fame
Except that life isn't rightfully my own
Cause you're so busy...

Walk Away

I'm sorry I lost myself over again
My brain's always the very first to go
The train ran off its tracks so very long ago

My thoughts are so very muddled
my mind is far from clear
And everything's to blame on me, my dear

I'll understand if you walk away
Eventually they always say
It just won't work, I'm sorry, Ray

I guess I'm used to it by now
the things been happening for years
even if I don't like the tears

So make your decision, we know the outcome
You'll leave and I'll stay
so just walk away

Moonlight

No second guess and no more chances
Just all alone and the moonlight dances

The light is quivering and leaving quick
You don't have much, so take your pick

The decision's final with a limited choice
And if you aren't careful you'll lose your voice

No second guesses and no more chances
You're all alone and the moonlight dances

Yesterday (A Beatles Rewrite) (Lyrics)

Yesterday, all my homework seemed so far away
But now it looks as though it’s due today
oh I wish it was yesterday


Suddenly, I don’t feel half as smart as I used to be
there’s a shadow hanging over me
oh today came suddenly


Why it was due now
I don’t know
it wouldn’t say
I left something home
Now I long for yesterdayayayayay


Yesterday, all my homework seemed so far away
But now it looks as though it’s due today
oh I wish it was yesterday
I wish it was yesterday
