Click here to read the first 75 lines of the story I'm just half of the moon. Ten years spent together and not once did I ever think that you'd leave me this way, for better or worse has turned into a curse and your illness will take you away so I look into your eyes and then realize that the angels will be coming quite soon cos you and I know that shortly you'll go and alone I'm just half of the moon. I can feel my tears falling and mem'ries start calling as you fall asleep on our bed, days full of laughter I'll remember long after you're gone and I'm left just as dead for you half-way complete me I half-way complete you together we're one shining moon but you and I know that shortly you'll go and alone I'm just half of the moon. JUST GETTIN BY I meet friends they ask, ‘How you doin?' I tell them, ‘Just gettin by' they all know that you an I parted so they nod and understand why. Some of the ladies they hug me guys don't know how to try it's hard to make conversation when your soul it just wants to cry. When your soul wants to cry when your soul wants to cry livin a life that's so empty first time I've wanted to die. I pass all the places in town places we used to go so many scenes that still haunt me too many people I know. They'd all be askin the same question if I go in on my own I can't face havin to tell them you've left and I'm here all alone. When your soul wants to cry when your soul wants to cry livin a life that's so empty first time I've wanted to die. They say that time's the great healer but I don't think it's workin for me it's been over three months since we parted I'm still down as far as can be. A friend said I'd meet someone else soon just gotta get out the door said I can't stay single forever but I don't get around much no more. When your soul wants to cry when your soul wants to cry livin a life that's so empty first time I've wanted to die. Drivin my car home from work saw you last nite just by chance you looked the way I first saw you when we started that magic romance. Pulled over an made a decision to ask could we give it a go then your new man strolled up an he kissed you arm in arm you went into a show. So I'm leavin my home town tomorrow leavin the places I know my heart won't let go of our mem'ries but my head tells me it's time to go. When your soul wants to cry when your soul wants to cry livin a life that's so empty it's time I stopped wantin to die. I WELCOME THE NIGHT Warm feelin inside me as I welcome the night dark cold all around stars shinin bright. Day's work done ready for bed you've beat me to it you're already ahead. Soft lights in our bedroom you look cosy an warm I hear distant thunder we're in for a storm. How I welcome the night with the stars shinin bright or the rain or the hail or the snow we're always together don't mind what's the weather feelin so good I just glow. I slip in beside you an flick out the light try not to disturb you I welcome the night. I slip my arm round you feel you snugglin near rain stars a-fallin where skies once were clear. We're warm an together an here's what I pray that forever an ever together we stay. We drift off to sleep another day done warm and in love two hearts beatin as one. How I welcome the night with the stars shinin bright or the rain or the hail or the snow we're always together don't mind what's the weather feelin so good I just glow. DISH OF THE DAY Been eatin a dish quite a lot lately a dish that I've come to hate get it for breakfast an dinner an even sometimes get it quite late. Getting quite sick of that dish now eatin it day after day quite frankly I'd rather go hungry than to see it headin my way. And the dish? I hear you cry what's this dish? I hear you cry well you might have had some yourself once for the dish it is called humble pie! Seem to have had it for weeks now the damned stuff won't go away no matter how much I behave myself there's humble pie comin my way. Had me a word with the Good Lord asked Him how do things look? no reply from the Almighty so I figure that He's the Chief Cook. And the dish? I hear you cry what's this dish? I hear you cry well you might have had some yourself once for the dish it is called humble pie! Headed out to my favourite bar saw everybody I know had me a few beers then got hungry I knew just where I had to go. The waitress she smiled at the drive-thru told her cheeseburger an fries but when I opened the bag in my pick-up it was more of that damned humble pie. And the dish? I hear you cry what's this dish? I hear you cry well you might have had some yourself once for the dish it is called humble pie! Getting resigned to my fate just now been eatin that dish quite a lot late the only good thing I can tell you is that it's sure helpin me to lose weight. So pay good attention you folks out there cos I don't want it happ'nin to you be careful an honest as you pass thru life or that dish will be headin for you. And the dish? I hear you cry what's this dish? I hear you cry well you might have had some yourself once for the dish it is called humble pie! SAW THIS MAN Saw this man, haunted look on his face such deep sadness, never seen it any place lines of sorrow on his brow wish I could cheer him up somehow looks like he's lost his lovin lost his livin lost his way. Saw this man with great pain in his eyes could see him as he bows his head an cries bitter tears into the night or at dawn's bright early light looks like he's lost his lovin lost his livin lost his way. Saw this man his black hair was turnin grey an his clothes looked like they'd seen better days I bet he ain't got a dime just endless problems on his mind looks like he's lost his lovin lost his livin lost his way. That man I was starin at today was myself standin in a shop doorway in the window of the store saw my reflection an much more looks like I've lost my lovin lost my livin lost my way. Now it seems like only yesterday I was up there winnin, thought I'd stay but bad luck can hit you, brother leads to one thing then another that's when I lost my lovin lost my lovin lost my way. So if you'll excuse me I must be on my way headin back to where the homeless people stay lost my job, my home, my wife need some purpose in this life because I've lost my lovin lost my livin lost my way. ALL YOU CAN DO Every day is an uphill struggle every day seems to bring more trouble comes out of the blue heads straight towards you not a lot you can do. Every day there's that low down feelin there's more bad news sends your head a-reelin comes out of the blue heads straight towards you not a lot you can do. Every day life just gets tougher there's no good times things just get rougher comes out of the blue heads straight towards you no escape route for you not a lot you can do. Every day gotta drag yourself thru it there's no good luck think you already blew it everythin lookin blue headin straight towards you no escape route for you not a lot you can do. Looks like the best days have departed you gotta change get a new life started head out of the blue start things anew a new life for you it's all you can do all you can do all you can do an it's all up to you. HURTIN REAL BAD I'm hurtin real bad ten times worse than sad an there's no-one around to say ‘Hi' no-one I can talk to no-one to unlock to spend most nites alone an just cry. Strange how life changes everythin re-arranges when you lose all the ones you hold dear now dark days lie ahead the nites I just dread where do I go to from here? For a while there you're winnin wake up an you're grinnin you're lovin the start of the day your family are wakin the kids don't need shakin an the dog he just can't wait to play. Strange how life changes everythin re-arranges when you lose all the ones you hold dear now dark days lie ahead the nites I just dread where do I go to from here? Our life seemed secure my job an yours no more mortgage to pay the present just right the future seemed bright the kids gettin smarter each day. Strange how life changes everythin re-arranges when you lose all the ones you hold dear now dark days lie ahead the nites I just dread where do I go to from here? You had picked up the kids as you usually did you told me you loved the school run our dog was there too snuggled up next to you with the kids in the back havin fun. Then straight out the blue a drunk slammed into you he'd taken the corner too fast screechin of tyres both cars caught on fire no-one survived in the blast. Strange how life changes everythin re-arranges when you lose all the ones you hold dear now dark days lie ahead the nites I just dread where do I go to from here? Now I'm hurtin real bad ten times worse than sad an there's no-one around to say ‘Hi' no-one I can talk to no-one to unlock to spend most nites alone an just cry. YOU'RE BREAKING THE SPELL Well it comes as no surprise that you're telling me more lies tell me do you memorize all your lines? Like when you say you're working late and that dinner's gonna have to wait why can't you just play it straight for one time? It's not like it was it's not like it was before, don't know what to say don't know what to say anymore... don't think you realize how much you hypnotize me with those dark brown eyes but you're breaking the spell with your lies. It's getting difficult to believe when you say you're not gonna leave never dreamed that you'd deceive me at all. And when I try to talk to you it's just not easy to get through you always have so much to do all the time. It's not like it was it's not like it was before, don't know how to act don't know how to act anymore... don't think you realize how much you hypnotize me with those dark brown eyes but you're breaking the spell with your lies. Another night sitting on my own waiting up for you to get home staring at the telephone wish you'd call. What kind of game is this to play tearing me up day after day why don't you just come out and say that we're through? It's not like it was it's not like it was before, feel like I don't know you feel like I don't know you anymore... don't think you realize how much you hypnotize me with those dark brown eyes but you're breaking the spell with your lies, breaking the spell with your lies. DON'T FOLLOW ME Wake up in the night shaking with fear body's all wet nobody near it's not easy it's not easy don't follow me. Life going nowhere my fault I confess she'd left with the kids was desp'rate I guess. One night at a party reeling from wine ice in my heart the kids on my mind. Man in the shadows sensed all my screams told me it's easy could fix me new dreams. He grinned as he showed me his needle and spoon the first hit was simple but was over too soon. And it's easy yes it's easy just follow me just follow me. Stumbled out of the party didn't notice the dawn a kiss from the needle my nightmares were gone. Hazy days followed dream powder it flowed don't know where the time went don't care what I owed. Another year older hair starting to grey bones getting colder nerves starting to fray. I lied and I cheated I'd steal and I'd pray just for the needle to get through the day. Oh it's so easy it's so easy just follow me just follow me. Derelict building derelict men the winos, the junkies no need to pretend. This is my home now you're welcome to call don't get many visits friends don't come at all. Days blur together but end the same way aching for powder keep the demons at bay. Don't get out like I used to other life's gone she came to see me we talked until dawn. Yes it's easy yes it's easy just follow me just follow me. Tried that cold turkey in a clinic I guess cleaned up this body cleaned up this mess. He came to visit said, “Don't you look fine,” tossed me his works the decision was mine. He grinned as I picked up his needle and spoon the first hit was simple but was over too soon. Back with the junkies and the derelict men too hard to stay straight too hard to pretend. Is it easy? no it's not easy is it easy? no it's not easy don't follow me don't follow me or you'll wake up in the night shaking with fear body all wet nobody near nobody near don't follow me. SOMEBODY ELSE I can barely conceal all the loathing I feel when I see you. I can barely disguise the contempt in my eyes when I'm near you. It's like somebody else deep inside of myself must have loved you. I can hardly disguise the disgust in my eyes when you touch me. I can hardly conceal the revulsion I feel when you kiss me. It's like somebody else deep inside of myself must have loved you. I don't want to conceal the relief that I feel when you're not there. I don't have to disguise or to shelter my eyes from your lost stare. I guess you and me weren't intended to be baby so long. I guess you and me weren't intended to be baby so long. It feels good to be free so I'm cruising to see who's romancing. The music is loud in this club where a crowd are all dancing. That girl over there keeps returning my stare so I stroll down. I can hardly disguise the delight in my eyes as I hold her. I can barely conceal the excitement I feel as I kiss her. I guess you and me were intended to be baby hold on. It's like somebody else deep inside of myself has been reborn. SENT TO KILL Just discovered all your truths are sent to kill truths like shadows settle round me sent to kill truth like lightnin arrows to me sent to kill. Sense you watchin checkin damage you scent the kill know I'm wounded know I'm hurtin you scent the kill sense indifference sense your coldness you scent the kill. Why create me just to break me just to kill? all that power why d'you use it just to kill? why d'you bother creatin life just to kill? Sent to kill sent to kill sent to kill scent the kill sent to kill scent the kill sent to kill you scent the kill. Tweet
