HONESTY ANYWAY
written by Bret Domrose
published by Wanna Make Out Music [ASCAP]
On the first night I ever saw you
From the first time I ever felt your skin
I figured things a little strange
As I began to rearrange myself
When the first sunlight started to appear
I would turn to see if you were here
I harbored not a single doubt
Just had to find what you're about inside
I couldn't seem to say good night
Until I heard you say alright to me
Excuse me my dear - I just had to say
It's hell without you here
And all my dreams are full of fear
But there's honesty anyway
The first time I knew I made a choice
Is when I heard the low-down
Sullen sound of your voice
I harbored not a single doubt
Just had to find what you're about inside
I couldn't seem to say good night
Until I heard you say alright to me
Excuse me my dear - I just had to say
It's hell without you here
And all my dreams are full of fear
But there's honesty anyway
Just had to let you know
Feels like hell when you're not home
And I sleep alone
But there's honesty anyway
BEHIND HER

Is it a crime to
Feel the way you want to feel
If it feels good inside
If they tell you
Nothing's easy
It's because they haven't tried
She looks behind her
And she sees everything
She shouldn't have to see
Or want to see again
Understand me
Feel the way that I do
And you will be alright
Understand me and reach out to
What is right in front
And waiting there for you-tonight
She looks behind her
And she sees everything
She shouldn't have to see
Or want to see again
She looks behind her
And she sees al the things
That keep her from being again
Is it a crime to feel
The way you want to feel
If it feels bad inside
Understand me
Feel the way that I do
And you will be alive
Tonight
She looks behind her
And she sees everything
She shouldn't have to see
Or want to see again
She looks behind her
And she sees all the things
That keep her from being again-tonight
RETURN

This is where you laid your head
Next to me, in this bed
This is where we talked for hours
And then you stood and you were gone
I've seen so much - I am in touch
I think and then I hurt
You know too much - you are in touch
I wait for the return
This is where you made me see
Everything I do for me
I was lost in Maryland
When you showed me how to be a friend
I've seen so much - I am in touch
I think and then I hurt
You know too much - you are in touch
I wait for the return
I've seen so much - I am in touch
I think and then I hurt
You know too much - you are in touch
I wait for the return
32 STORIES

published by Wanna Make Out Music [ASCAP]
I know I'm here with you tonight
Could I be holding you too tight
Just say the word and I'll let go
We want the best for you, you know
32 stories in the sky
We saw a brilliant sunrise
It kinda hit us by surprise
And shined its beauty in your eyes
I will hold you can't you see
All the things you mean to me
Like the flowers and the trees
Can we smile eternally
Three weeks ago I spoke to you
Felt there was nothing I could do
I booked a flight to somewhere new
I couldn't get there without you
32 stories in the sky
We saw a brilliant sunrise
It kinda hit us by surprise
And shined its beauty in your eyes
I will hold you can't you see
All the things you mean to me
Like the flowers and the trees
Can we smile eternally
I will hold you can't you see
All the things you mean to me
Like the flowers and the trees
I will hold you can't you see
All the things you mean to me
Like the flowers and the trees
Can we smile eternally
I will hold you can't you see
All the things you mean to me
Like the flowers and the trees
OUR LITTLE VISIONARY
FORGIVE
written by Bret Domrose
Sometimes we fly away too soon
Sometimes we live our lives a little out of tune
Sometimes in fear we don't look back
We find it so hard to forgive someone for being bad
Everything's OK
I'm staring at a better day
If I forgive today
Will this pain go away
Sometimes we tire from the anger down inside
Sometimes the fire gets a little too hard to hide
When you are speaking to me I'll believe it's true
And if you're lying then there's really nothing I can do
Everything's OK I'm staring at a better day
If I forgive today
Will these memories go away
OUR LITTLE VISIONARY
written by Bret Domrose
She says I got a tortured soul
I got soul that she don't know
She says it like it's all so clear
She starts to shake when I am near
There comes a point
Across our lives
Where we must see
Or we will die I've seen it before
In your rainbow there's a color
I don't remember as a child
There comes a point
Across our lives
Where we must see
Or we will die
She says I got a tortured soul
I got soul that she don't know
She says it like it's all so clear
She starts to shake when I am near
This is the point
That's in our lives
Where we will see
Or will we die
NO MATTER WHAT
No matter what you are
I will always be with you
Doesn't matter what you do girl
Ooh girl with you
No matter what you do
I will always be around
Won't you tell me what you've found girl
Ooh girl I want you
Knock down the old gray wall
Be a part of it all
Nothing to say Nothing to see
Nothing to do
If you would give me all I would give it to you
Nothing would be - Nothing would be
Nothing would be
No matter where you go
There will always be a place
Can't you see it in my face girl
Ooh girl I want you
Knock down the old gray wall
Be a part of it all
Nothing to say Nothing to see
Nothing to do
If you would give me all
I would give it to you
Nothing would be - Nothing would be
Nothing would be
No matter what you do
I will always be around
Won't you tell me what you've found girl
Ooh girl I want you
Do girl ooh girl I want you
Do girl ooh girl I want you
BREATHE TONIGHT
written by Bret Domrose
Under full moon I see you there
And I beg forgiveness from your stare
Have I done wrong beyond repair
And you say that I should lie alone and
Breathe tonight
Dream tonight
Where it's alright
Under full moon I lost my way
I lost everything that made you want to stay
I traded life for just one night
And now I'm left to lie alone and
Breathe tonight
Feel the bite
Dream tonight
That it's alright
Breath tonight
Feel the bite
Dream tonight
That it's alright
Breathe tonight
Feel the bite
Dream tonight
That it's alright
NOBODY HOME
written by Bret Domrose
We stand in the cold
Here it's 30 below
I'm getting to know
Nobody home
She falls asleep on the phone
2,000 miles away she sleeps all alone
She's getting to know
Nobody home
I sent her away
To someone who she could see everyday
I'm getting to know
Nobody home
He falls asleep on the phone
2,000 miles away he sleeps all alone
He's getting to know
Nobody home
She sees
Nobody home
THE HISTORY LIGHT
written by Bret Domrose
I am so blind tonight from the history light
Everything that's ever happened to me
Is in my head tonight
It's kinda nice not to see another sight
'Til I rest awhile
And all I need is sleep
Rest awhile - sleep - like a child
Sleep - rest awhile - sleep
I am so high tonight from the history light
Everything that's ever been said to me
Is in my head tonight
It's kinda nice not to hear another sound
'Til I rest awhile
And all I need is sleep
Rest awhile - sleep - like a child
Sleep - rest awhile - sleep
I am so blind tonight from the history light
Everything that's ever happened to me
Is in my head tonight
It's kinda nice not to see another sight
'Til I rest awhile
And all I need is sleep
Rest awhile - sleep - like a child
Sleep - rest awhile - sleep
AND I PRAY
written by Bret Domrose
Dark and cold closing in
I feel something new begin
Is it a flower that begins to bloom
Or is it history repeating too soon
All at once it rushes in and
Makes itself my new best friend
Is it safe I don't know
But I bought the ticket so I'll try and enjoy the show
And I pray tonight
Will show me mercy from its fight
And I pray that tonight
I am wrong and she is right
Dark and warm closing in
I feel something strange within
You're the flower in full bloom my friend
You're the story I can't wait to tell again
And I pray that tonight
Will show me mercy from its fight
And I pray that tonight
I am wrong and she is right
And I pray every night
That you can feel like me inside
And I pray - I pray to you
You are the saving grace
With a warm embrace
ENCHANTED
written by Bret Domrose
Hey Hey I'm sorry I didn't mean to bring you down
But these awesome disillusions sometimes find a new
way out
Your think I'm speaking what I'm feeling is it rage
You say I'm reading like a novelist's unfinished page
But hey can I tell you if the things you only knew
Weren't so shocking and so true
Could strip the passion from inside you
I don't wanna sound I don't wanna look
I don't wanna feel this way
Just give me one enchanted moment
That will make me want to stay
Hey now I'm starting to make some sense of this
My trees are green and I'm so alive I swear I felt a kiss
Like resting after days without a single night to sleep
Someone's bringing all the love in this world to me
But hey did I tell you
All the things that I once knew
That were so shocking and so true
Put my passion into you
I don't wanna sound I don't wanna look
I don't wanna feel this way
It's the one enchanted moment
That's made me want to stay
I don't wanna sound I don't wanna look
I don't wanna feel this way
It's the one enchanted moment
That's made me want to stay
BLEEDING SOUL
written by Bret Domrose
I don't wanna be here
But I need to be here
I really wish that I could
I really feel the need to
Let my body go
Let me feelings show
Here comes another worn out
Here comes another burned out
Here comes another bleeding soul…
I don't need to kiss it
I don't need to touch it
I really wish that I could
I really feel the need to
Let my body go
Let my feelings show
Here comes another worn out
Here comes another burned out
Here comes another bleeding soul…
Here comes another worn out
Here comes another burned out
Here comes another bleeding soul…
GOODBYE
written by Bret Domrose
In an unforgiving way
He took twenty years away
What was he thinking of that day
Didn't live to see just how you are today
Goodbye
Surprise - He stole your pride
There's so much for you up here
Where the air is blue and clear
And the city down below is full of fear
Thought I knew you as a child
But you kept it all inside
And you hid it all so well
Didn't notice you were living in a hell
Goodbye
Surprise - He stole your pride
There's so much for you up here
Where the air is blue and clear
And the city down below if full of fear
Take my hand and come inside
The moment's dead but your spirit's alive
Everything I see in you I need
In an unforgiving way
Didn't live to see just how you were today
Goodbye
Surprise - He stole your pride
DENIAL
written by Bret Domrose
There is love here can you feel it
It's from me it's for me and I stole it
If caught I'll deny it
I'll scream and I'll fight it
Jesus loves me can you feel it
I've injured my life - hope he can heal it
If caught I'll deny it
I'll scream and I'll fight it
There is love here can you feel it
It's from me it's for me and I stole it
If caught I'll deny it
I'll scream and I'll fight it
Jesus loves me can you feel it
I've injured your life - hope he can heal it
If caught I'll deny it
I'll scream and I'll fight it
