Just one more thin mint.

Seems my chair doesn't seem to care
if I spend too much time in my underwear
If I waste all my time, if I grow more hair
to a chair it's never too late.

Seems my TV won't look back at me,
If i curse its wrongs, for lying blatantly
To think i gave it so much company
TV's don't care about fate.

Hiding from tomorrow
as told by my past
trying to find the middle
for the last

I wake up to what forever
has written in my dreams
and try not to see,
what any of it means.

It's a real test of wills, not to spill coffee
when it's filled to the Topsy, looking for it's turvey
I think it's plain to see, I need caffeine free
I need to drink green tea.

I guess things get bent, and pick up a new dent
when not used for the makers best intent
I can't eat one more thin mint,
But I guess that's enough about me.

Hiding from tomorrow
as told by my past
trying to find the middle for the last

I wake up to what forever
has written in my dreams
and try not to see what any of it means.

I pour myself some coffee
and sit down in my chair
and surf and surf for some good TV.

So far down.

It's you
and me.
Trying not to believe.
What seemed meant to be,
And now you don't look at me.

One mistake,
and two heart breaks
now its too too too late,
to start all over again,

And it's so far down
i'll never hit the ground

When you fall off the top of the world,
when you lose the perfect girl
when you fall off the top of the world
you want to find your way back there again,
you want to make her smile again.

Perfectly
the fit was plain to see
the way you came to me
the way you set me free

It was happy times
tho you still call me friend
i still remember when.
we though it would never end

and it's so far down,
i doubt I'll ever hit the ground

When you fall off the top of the world
when you lose that perfect girl
when you fall off the top of the world
you know you'll never be the same.
you know it'll never feel the same.
you just want to see her smile again.

Just hum along.

You and me
we gotta lot of need.
and more time than a Cadillac
of a blue haired lady
in the hills in a big house
and more cash than she can stack

There's a tune to sing
that needs some accompany
and you look like you can play
my guitars ready,
and the chords are new
and I think I got something to say

But I know,

I've got a reputation,
and maybe it's the truth.

maybe the words aren't right for the song,
but I sure like to sing it this way,
but I bet you'll be humming along.
dancing along the way.

Well sit right here
this seat a little empty
and it wants to be warm
sit right here
i can use some company
it sure won't do no harm

And if my feet start tapping,
don't get alarmed
they're just getting ready to go,
and if the music starts playing
you might think it's angels
but the devils only get this far, oh no

but I got a reputation
and baby it's the truth

maybe the words aren't right for this song,
but I sure like to sing it this way
I bet you'll be humming along
so it don't matter anyway

so maybe the words aren't right for this song
I just like to sing it this way
I bet you'll be humming along
dancing the night away.

Well she walked up to me
put one foot on the chair
and when i looked her over
she just didn't care
she said, "boy, you aint nothin'
but a bad boy wanna be
but you gotta have somethin
if you wanna be with me "
She held my stare
and got real close
and she grabbed my hair
and then she whispered in my ear...

"i've got a reputation baby
and it might be the truth. "

chorus to fade

Another song i will soon forget.

I sit around the campfire.
And chase away the cold
The flames they're getting higher
with no where else to go.

The fire's like a movie,
of a thousand thoughts in my head,
of plans I made, and gave away
things she did, things she said
It drifted away
they all went up in smoke.
*****
I try not to think about her,
or where she might have gone,
but what remains, when fiery flames
get lost to try again
I try not to think about it
try to live without it
but nights like these have memories
taunting me, haunting me
theyre drifting away
they all go up in smoke.

*******
And the stars are shining brighter,
than they did yesterday,
and they never move at all,
but just fade away,
and take the fire,
but leave a little smoke.

*********

The fires a little warmer,
on a cold night like this,
maybe I'm sitting closer,
maybe thinking of things I've missed
but I watch the flames,
make their mistakes
I can feel their heart breaks
promises that failed to take
and wondering if its all too late
it drifted away
and all went up in smoke.
