Ode to Pain

Never wanted something new
Was an old plant in the room
One that never fully bloomed
One day I wanted change
With the surge of a hurricane
Friends said man have you gone insane
That night I picked a fight
Finally opened my eyes
Me and my baby were never quite right
It's okay that I’m scarred and stained
Cause I’ll molt and fly away
Not about feeling good
It’s an ode to pain
I won’t wander or stray
Or resist in any way
Not about feeling good,
It's an ode to pain
It's an ode to pain
It's an ode to pain
It's an ode to pain
Now, every turn seems wrong
Like I’m running in a fog
Still, I feel more free than I am lost
Though I cannot see
The truth will be revealed
It’ll come despite my belief
Cause, love is never clear
Fear always seems so real
May it never stop bringin me to tears
It's okay that I’m scarred and stained
Cause I’ll molt and fly away
Not about feeling good
It’s an ode to pain
I won’t wander or stray
Or resist in any way
Not about feeling good,
It's an ode to pain
It's an ode to pain
It's an ode to pain
It's an ode to pain
More than peace or quiet
I want love burning fire
Watch ashes of my pride
Wash away in rising tide
After the flames burn bright
Dark and alone, nowhere to hide
I’ll finally give in to the night
Let the stars but my guide
It's okay that I’m scarred and stained
Cause I’ll molt and fly away
Not about feeling good
It’s an ode to pain
I won’t wander or stray
Or resist in any way
Not about feeling good,
It's an ode to pain
It's an ode to pain
It's an ode to pain
It's an ode to pain

Tender Lover

I got a woman so strong
When she’s right, everybody’s wrong
I can’t argue long
I’m a tender loving man
Give you what I can
You want me mad, baring teeth
Boiling up what lies beneath
Old garbage heap
Now I’m a tender lovin man
Livin the best I can
I come home late, you get mean
When I fight, baby I fight clean
And then let it be
I’m a tender lover yeah
Want to show you what I mean
When anger turns to love
Falls a cup
On a string
And through it
I hear the lord
Whisper
You’re better off
With a man
Tender like no other
You think I’m all outer calm
Baby you read me wrong
Pin me down, tear my clothes
Baby, just do it real slow
Turn red into rose
I’m a tender loving man
Depraved is what I am
And through it
I hear the lord
Whisper
You’re better off
With a man
Tender like no other
Tender like no other

When it seems like all your choices have been made
And you lose at all the games that you play
And the crackle in your bones keeps you awake
Travellin down the road
20 hours … without a break
Your secret deeds are not to blame
Nor the chances that you didn’t take
Is that the point you think everyone’s tryin to make
While you scream at the highway
It won’t make … the road change
That you can’t let go
Been down every alley, you’ve seen every place
Where every child’s born with tears on his face
And you know if life, if its, just a game
You need to take your hand and play
Thrill … is in the chase
The beating in your chest that gives life to your soul. It's the rhythm to a dance urging you to find more.
The heart just wants what it doesn’t know … and you’re
Runnin' after the things that you can’t let go
The beating in your chest that gives life to your soul. It's the rhythm to a dance urging you to find more.
The heart just wants what it doesn’t know … and you’re
Runnin' after the things that you can’t let go
