THE BIKER
I saw you, hug your purse closer to you in the grocery store
line. But, you didn’t see me, put an extra $10.00 in the collection
outside the store as I walked in.
I saw you; pull your child closer when we passed each other on
the sidewalk. But, you [...]
Is anybody out there? It feels like I’m talkin to myself
No one seems to know my struggle, and everything I come from
Can anybody hear me? Yeah, I guess I keep talkin’ to myself
It feels like I’m goin’ insane, am I the one who’s crazy?
So why in the world [...]
“Walk a little slower daddy” said the child so small.
“I’m following in your footsteps and don’t want to fall.
Sometimes your steps are very fast, sometimes they’re hard to see;
so walk a little slower, daddy, for you are leading me.
Someday when I am all grown up, you’re what I want [...]
For the first time you can open your eyes
And see the world without your sorrow
Where no one knows the pain you left behind
And all the peace you could never find
Is waiting there to hold and keep you
Welcome to the first day of your life

I stand surrounded by the walls that once defined me
Knowing I’ll be underneath them
When they crumble when they fall
With clarity my scars remind me
Ask yourself what’s just under my skin
A different smile again
So much I hide
How is stepping back a move forward
My Heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I know it’s blinding
No
It only hurts to breathe
So heavy is the night
Exhausted
Whispers tend to crucify my mind
I’m fighting but I’m blind
Can you fix what’s made to be broken
I can’t fix what’s made to [...]
I’m entitled to overcome
Completely stunned I’m numb
Knock me down throw me to the floor!
There’s no pain I can’t feel no more.
I’m entitled to overcome
Overcome!
All is lost again
But I’m not giving in
I will not bow
I will not break
I will shut the world away
I will not fall
I will not fade
I will take your breath away
And I’ll survive, paranoid
I have lost the will to change
I created the sound of madness
Wrote the book on pain
Somehow I’m still here to explain
That the darkest hour never comes in the night
You can sleep with a gun
But when you gonna wake up and fight
For yourself
Put me to sleep, evil angel
Open your wings, evil angel
Fly over me, evil angel
Why can’t I breathe, evil angel
