Find Another way
Music & Lyrics: Steve Calapp & Steve Dominguez

Well it’s all over now but the lonely remains

Memories fade and they swallow the pain

And I’m leaving a curse as I drive away the miles

I’m lured by the thoughts of a better life

But I can’t see the end… and I’m over extended

The anxiety keeps me pretending…that it’s not so bad

And there’s nothing wrong with the way I’m feeling now

But I’m scared of the danger in opening a new door

And ending up again face down on the floor

So, I grab at the edges to pull myself up

And it seems that my best isn’t good enough

But I refuse to believe…that I can’t make the ends meet

And that there’s no end to the pouring rain

And I know it’s only me…that’s keeping me down

I just have to find another way

(Got to find another way)

With wide-open eyes, I’m shedding my skin

Let go the pain and never wear it again

I’m stepping outside of that square I’ve been living in

Because I’m still in a crawl when I ought to be flying

So, I take another step and I feel like I’m going to fall

It’s small… but it’s all I can handle today

Well it’s only me…that’s keeping me down

I just got to find another way

(Got to find another way)

Keep me from falling

I’m moving up slow, but I feel like I’m getting too high

And so, keep me from talking

Oh yeah, ‘cause I tend to cut myself down in size

Yeah, keep on walking… but don’t leave me behind

I just help me find another way

(Got to find another way)


Burn it Down

Music & Lyrics: Steve Calapp

Loss of information… as if never there

Like an empty canvas

And dirty secrets cover lies of the way it was before

Warm hearts abandoned

Just burn it down… burn it all down to ashes

With a fire to bring a mountain to the ground

Rub it out and cover my reactions

Hold the line or the fire will bring you down

Bring you down…Burn it down

Signs show a bitter love… and it’s been this way before

And no one wins

Side burning side, fueling fires…all’s fair in love and war

Both too proud to bend

Just burn it down… burn it all down to ashes

With a fire to bring a mountain to the ground

So get out…get out now while you still can

Hold the line or the fire will bring you down

Bring you down…Burn it down…Burn it down

Code Red now this is not a drill

Keep your head on straight and shoot to kill

Don’t take no chances

It’s just one last time, show of force and show your might

Everything will turn out fine

You follow the master plan

Just burn it down… burn it all down to ashes

With a fire to bring a mountain to the ground

Take it out and wash the blood off your hands

Hold the line or the fire will bring you down

Bring you down…Burn it down…Burn it down

Gonna bring you down… Gonna bring you down

Focus
Music & Lyrics: Steve Calapp

Last thing I remember

Was lying down in the cold mud

Night sky glowing red

Tried to maintain my distance

Keep your head together now

Keep your head together now

Last thing that I was told

Avoid the black flags on the edge

I fell straight down through the ice

You and you and you can all go to hell

Keep your head together now

Keep your head together now


Good Day For Suicide

Music & Lyrics: Steve Calapp & Steve Dominguez

Fade down to black…and, so this is how it ends

On a cold lonely night, with cry in anger…and a shot to the head

With no solutions, no one listened…and no one really cared

And they all try to make up some reason, because now everyone wants to know why

Everyone wants to know why…why I’m dead

Why would he take his own life

He had everything; there was no good reason why

You can point your fingers to justify it all, but now… no one can deny

I’ve got nothing more to say

I’ve got nothing more to say

There’s nothing more to say

So lay me down and say a prayer for me

Because it’s lonely out in space…and it’s so dark here, I can hardly see

I’m surrounded by whispers, and the howls of anguish and gnashing teeth

And, now I can’t even remember the reasons why …the reasons I chose to die

Oh yeah, Suicide made me worse than I could ever dream

Why would I take my own life

I had everything; there was no good reason why

You can point your fingers to justify it all, but now… no one can deny

I’ve got nothing more to say

I’ve got nothing more to say

There’s nothing more to say

There’s a pathway that will open up when the time is right

Paradise is waiting just beyond your sight

There’s nothing more to say

There’s nothing more to say

There’s nothing more to say

Get back…on your…own side

Get back…on your…own side

Stand up tall…and keep your love alive

Stand by your word and by the one who gave you life

Take your time…and find your better days

Sail on with the tide… you don’t have to wait

Come on and join the ride

But keep in mind…its all a gift and not a prize

And you don’t need a reason to live it up

Come on and celebrate your life

Celebrate your life… Celebrate your life


Make It Right

Music & Lyrics: Steve Calapp

I see an image of you in my mind

You’ve lived forever in my head

With you I’ve learned to seek out the harder things to find

And things that I’d never want to hide

Oh, another moment has just come and gone

And it seems these open wings will never fly

This dream is a wasted thought and no one really cares

But you have something else in mind

I’ve known you but never realized it

Please stand and let me recognize you

Once more, I’m left with nothing fine to give

I only tried to make things right

I see rainbows everywhere you are

A halo shines around your head

And what you have to give is worth more than the stars

To those who hunger for a friend

Yeah, I have so much left that I could learn

Yeah, I don’t have a lot of time

And what’s been said and done is none of my concern

I only tried to make things right

I want you to know, I’m left here all alone

And what I’d give to be in your shoes

And I see by your face that I’m living in disgrace

You give me so much I can lose

And yet an image of you stays in my mind

I guess you’ll live forever in my head

With you I’ve learned to seek out the harder things to find

And things that I’d never want to hide

I’ve known you but never realized it

Please stand and let me recognize you

Once more, I’m left with nothing fine to give

I only tried to make things right

I want you to know, I’m left here all alone

And what I’d give to be in your shoes

And I see by your face that I’m living in disgrace

You give me so much I can lose


Move On

Music & Lyrics: Steve Calapp

I’ve been living safe but all I want to do…is chase my dreams

And Mother says: You ought to be ashamed… reaching after fantasy

But, I sat beside myself and it seems…I’ve been doing fairly well

Oh yeah, very well indeed… so come on and

Follow me… Follow me… I know the way home…Come on

Follow me and we won’t be so alone…well, I need you to…

Help me… Help me…help me find a place where we belong

And then maybe…we can move on… move on

Well, I spent a million dollars on nothing down at the wishing well

And I’ll spend a million more when I’ve got no one left to kiss and tell

Oh, I’ve lost all control, yeah…so won’t you help me save myself

Come on save me…and now

Follow me… Follow me… I know the way home, yeah…

Follow me and we won’t be so alone…well, I need you to…

Help me… Help me…help me find a place where we belong

And then maybe…we can move on… move on

It’s alright if you’re out side…you can stand here on your own

You’re building up your castle…there’s a drawbridge at your door

But you lock down on your freedom…where your safety is inside

Well it’s all right, yes it’s all right… it’s all right

When I’m all alone with my friends

My mind has escaped me again

You say:

God helps those who help themselves… and then you drink up all my Wine

You’re a Stone Foot when you walk in my Garden… you’re killing my Vines

So, let’s talk of something else… before you go and eat up all my Time

Oh but you keep saying… Come on and…

Follow me… Follow me… I know the way back home, well…

Follow me and we won’t be so alone…I need you to…

Help me… Help me…help me find a place where we belong

And then maybe…we can move on… move on


My Cancer

Music & Lyrics: Steve Dominguez

She said she feels… the coldness of night.

She said she feels… like a bird held from flight.

There are tears in her eyes as they take and never give

She feels a little helpless…it’s all a little hopeless

That’s when she jumps out of bed screaming no,

It’s not going to happen…today.

She believes the world is against her sometimes.

Then she believes everything will be all right.

Then she gets that feeling like running for the trees.

She feels a little helpless…It’s just a little hopeless.

That’s when she jumps out of bed screaming no,

Everyone will think I’m crazy.

That’s when I roll out of bed laughing low

I’m just a little lazy…today.


Still

Music & Lyrics: Steve Calapp & Steve Dominguez

Sometimes I like to wonder, is there a place called Heaven?

If so, am I living in Hell?

And if I could just remember as far back as yesterday

I might have a few stories to tell

People like to tell me the sun will rise again

But I can’t see it from the bottom of my well

I’ve got no more stones left to turn

I found my answers in the rain

To the questions that no one else heard

yet I still feel the same

You ever get the feeling you’re living on borrowed time?

Other people care but they’re just bringing you down

I can sympathize with those who plant the fear

The fall ain’t as bad as hitting the ground

So what else can I do? I’ve done my best to help

You hear my words but then you build your wall

Well, I take in everything, and as you see I ain’t got much

Spread your wealth, you just might have it all

And I’ve got no more stones left to turn

I found my answers in the rain

To the questions that no one else heard

Yet I still feel the same

I don’t want to hear about the good times passing by

Because the grass is always greener on the other side

Well I’m happy to be alone, because I’m always the first in line

And I could get back up and give it one more try…

But I’ve got no more stones left to turn

I found my answers in the rain

To the questions that no one else heard

Yet I still feel the same


Worst in Me

Music & Lyrics: Steve Dominguez

I need a good drink o’ liquor.

But my girl tells me I drink too much.

She just wants me to hit her.

But she’s too sensitive to touch.

I can see the police coming down to hang me.

They can’t see the girl’s trying to frame me.

It could only take a woman

To bring out the worst in me.

I need to learn things a little quicker

cause I ain’t got that much time left.

I feel that I’m getting sicker

Everyday that I take another breath

You can all come and join me

In my pursuit of eluding happiness

We can all be what we want to be

And put ourselves to the test.

But I can feel the police comin’ down to hang me.

They can’t see the girl’s tryin’ to frame me.

Cause it could only take a woman

To bring out the worst in me.

So I’m a take me a drink o’ liquor,

And my girl can tell me I drink too much.

But ain’t ever gonna hit her… No

Cause it could only take a woman

To bring out the worst in me

It could only take a woman

To bring out the worst in me

I can see the police comin’ down to hang me

They can’t see the girl’s tryin’ to frame me

Cause it could only take a woman

To bring out the worst in me

It could only take a woman

To bring out the worst in me


What Lies Ahead

Music & Lyrics: Steve Calapp & Steve Dominguez

Hello…Goodbye, allow me to

Introduce myself

I’m the question when all the rest is final and I’ll…

Soon divide you again

The confusion said my name

Palms up, Hands out… the Madam said

I’m reading fate in your lines

My predictions of blood and consequences show

Panic far and wide

Confusion said… You decide what lies ahead

You can’t tie it down, cause in the end

I’ll take it all back

Climb up, Stand down… can’t you see

There’s a heavy load on my head

I’m as stable as I will ever be and you’re

Stepping on me again

Confusion said… You decide what lies ahead

You can’t tie it down, cause in the end

I’ll take it all back

You can try… to run away

Turn loose all your misery

But then I’ll give it right back

Yeah, I’ll give it right back

Hello… Goodbye… I’m here to please myself

I’m the owner of taste and wealth

And I got you under…

My spell

Confusion said… You decide what lies ahead

You can’t tie it down, cause in the end

I’ll take it all back

You can try… to run away

Turn loose all your misery

But then I’ll give it right back
