I wait a little time, make a little time
Gotta make sure my friends are fine
But when things take a turn down
When things take a twist around
You know you can come to me
I'll shelter you like a cat in the rain
Because I know that you need me
But God forbid the shoe's on the other foot
And you feel free to slam the door on me
I can't depend on you
You can depend on me
I wish you could do something for nothing
What do I get and what's in it for me?
Eyes everywhere, but the world can't see
I don't know how to make it any clearer
More people matter than the one in your mirror
Can't you do something, nothing, everything, anything.....
Dependably?
My standards have hit the ground
Sinking down, formed a new fault line
Your excuses take us down
And the fault's not yours, only mine
But when the earth shakes us
Moving us around like the motion can
Will you stand untouched
Or overflow like a shaken up soda can?
I can't depend on you
You can depend on me
I wish you could do something for nothing
What do I get and what's in it for me?
Eyes everywhere, but the world can't see
I don't know how to make it any clearer
More people matter than the one in your mirror
Can't you do something, nothing, everything, anything.....
Dependably?
You wait a long time, don't make enough time
Do you think I can be penciled in?
Can you spare a little attention?
I've got a book of things to say
And you're still late on the draw
I thought we had an appointment
But I won't say I'm disappointed
I can't depend on you
You can depend on me
I wish you could do something for nothing
What do I get and what's in it for me?
Eyes everywhere, but the world can't see
I don't know how to make it any clearer
More people matter than the one in your mirror
Can't you do something, nothing, everything, anything.....
Dependably?

Songs I Wrote
PoetryHere are some songs I wrote. The ones that end in (Old Song) are ones I wrote when I was 14. They're not all that good, but I thought it'd be cool to have my old songs here alongside my new ones. I think it shows how much I've changed and improved...
