Truth

Music & Lyrics by Jim Trainor.
TRUTH
Once in a while the stars indeed align
Cosmically charged, happens by design
Tell the truth, I can take it
I can take it 'til I can't anymore
The truth, I can take it 'til I can't take anymore
A time long ago is destined to repeat
Tell the truth, I can take it
I can take it 'til I can't anymore
The truth, I can take it 'til I can't take anymore
Remember what I said
We're in over our heads
Lifting each other out
There's no denying
Lies after lying
Can't we agree to love each other now
It's only my life, only my world
I've got the right to know
Tell the truth, I can take it
I can take it 'til I can't anymore
The truth, I can take it
I can take it 'til I can't anymore
Truth, I can take it
I can take it 'til I can't anymore
The truth, I can take it 'til I can't take anymore

Heaven Descending
03:16

|

Music and Lyrics by Jim Trainor and Tom Curless.
HEAVEN DESCENDING
Feel like I never fit in
Stuck on the out looking in
I don't know where I belong
Don't know what took her so long
Nobody noticed before
Nobody knew there was more
She recognizes in me
Qualities they can't see
Heaven descending over me
She is transcending over me
It's never ending and it's over my head
Love it when we're all alone
That's when I feel I'm at home
Shut off the world, wave of her hand
Now I don't care if they understand
Heaven descending over me
She is transcending over me
It's never ending and it's over my head
Heaven descending over me
She is transcending over
It's never ending and it's over my head
She gets me, she gets me
She gets me, she gets me
She gets me, she gets me
She gets me, she gets me
Heaven descending over me
She is transcending over me
It's never ending and it's over my head
Heaven descending over me
She is transcending over
It's never ending and it's over my head
Heaven descending over me
She is transcending over
It's never ending and it's over my head

Staring Down The Sun

Music by Jim Trainor. Lyrics by Liam Butler.
STARING DOWN THE SUN
You're the one, golden and going strong
Take a bow, take it to the world somehow
But tell me who is standing here, all on his own, staring down the sun
Not blinking til the evening comes
I'm not blinking til the evening comes down
Look at you, shining like diamonds do
Standing tall, shouting from the highest walls
But tell me who is standing here, all on his own, staring down the sun
Not blinking til the evening comes
I'm not blinking til the evening comes down
You're getting higher, getting higher, getting higher, so high
You're getting higher, getting higher, getting higher, don't look down
It's so far down
Pack it up, drop it in a paper cup
Thanks a lot, see you when it all gets hot
Meanwhile I'll be standing here, all on my own, still staring down the sun
Won't blink until the evening comes
I won't blink until the evening comes down
Not blinking until the evening comes

Somewhere Before

Music by Jim Trainor. Lyrics by Liam Butler.
SOMEWHERE BEFORE
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
The old man looking back at me
Is searching for a child who used to dream
Of cherry flavored soda streams
And cotton candy toffee apple trees
Then he told me I had changed
Too afraid to ask his name
But I know I've seen him somewhere before
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
A young boy in a picture frame
Says you and me, we used to be the same
Do you recall when we would fly
On magic rocking horses in the sky
Then he said, but you have changed
Too ashamed to ask his name
But I know I've seen him somewhere before
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
Do you ever wonder, wonder who we are
Somehow I've forgotten how to catch a star
Funny how we get lost trying to find ourselves
'cause truth be told, we only really want to find ourselves
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo

No Longer Blurred
03:45

|

Music by Jim Trainor. Lyrics by Liam Butler.
NO LONGER BLURRED
Took a walk down memory lane and soon got lost
I was stuck inside a day that I forgot
Took a trip to '96 and stayed too long
Wasn't looking for the bit where it all went wrong
Once again she stands before me
Whispering my name, like nothing ever changed
Someone told me long ago to not look back
It's the good times, don't you know, that make you sad
Once again she stands before me
Whispering my name, like nothing ever changed
In her hand a letter for me
Something she can't say, something I can't take
Suddenly the words
No longer look so blurred
I remember everything
Especially how they hurt
Once again she stands before me
Whispering my name, like nothing ever changed
In her hand a letter for me
Something she can't say, something I can't take

All I'm Thinking About
04:26
|
|

Music & Lyrics by Jim Trainor.
ALL I'M THINKING ABOUT
Crazy, enchanted, enamored and high
I can't get enough of, her radiant smile
A beautiful flower that's always in bloom
How can I miss her when she's in the next room
Poster child for love struck
My goofy, silly grin
I'm infatuated, don't know where to begin
I love her, my perfect little angel
I love her, and what she's all about
I love her, she's my girl without a doubt
We do what we like and we like what we do
Over and under, around and through
I'm counting down the moments
She's really driving me mad
When we're together there's no way that I can be sad
I love her, my perfect little angel
I love her, and what she's all about
I love her, she's my girl without a doubt
I love her, and everything about her
I love her, and she makes me want to shout
I love her, she's my girl without a doubt
And she's all I'm thinking about
She's all I'm thinking about
Yes, she's all I'm thinking about
Say goodbye to lonesome
Say goodbye to pain
Welcome to a brand new life that will never be the same
I love her, my perfect little angel
I love her, and what she's all about
I love her, she's my girl without a doubt
I love her, and everything about her
I love her, and she makes me want to shout
I love her, she's my girl without a doubt
And she's all I'm thinking about
She's all I'm thinking about
Yes, she's all I'm thinking about
She's all I'm thinking about

Maybe I

Music & Lyrics by Jim Trainor.
MAYBE I
I feel like a forgotten man
People look past the place where I stand
I wish it didn't matter so much
What would it take for me to get back in touch
Maybe I, Maybe I
Maybe I, Maybe I
My normal is everyone's strange
The way that I'm wired is hard to explain
The freedom that I've always sought
Immunity from their actions and thoughts, til then
Maybe I, Maybe I
Maybe I, Maybe I
Maybe I, Maybe I
Maybe I, Maybe I'm alright
It's hard to admit that I thought about quitting
When dark skies were above
If everything crumbles
And our world comes tumbling down
You still have my love
You still have my love
I've got to sit down and compare
Which path to take is still up in the air
Listen to my wise, inner voice
I need to remember that I'm always in choice, okay
Maybe I, Maybe I
Maybe I, Maybe I
Maybe I, Maybe I
Maybe I, Maybe I'm alright

After All

Music & Lyrics by Jim Trainor.
AFTER ALL
I've been regressing back to my former self
Not sure what I am trying to prove
After all
Don't you think I deserve another chance
Won't you forgive me, I made a mistake
After all
If I try to act amused I'm only hiding my confusion
Never mind
I can't imagine my life without you here
Please stay with me for the rest of my days
After all

No Self Respect
03:59
|
|

Music & Lyrics by Jim Trainor.
NO SELF RESPECT
You tell me that you love me true, and then
You go with him, you go with him.
You promise me there's nothing's going on
And blame it on my paranoia
Every time you walk into a room
You're turning heads, you turn their heads
I don't understand the way you dress
Do you really need that much attention
I don't know why I love you but I always will
You treat me so bad but I've got no self respect
I'm embarrassed to say that I've got no self respect
I don't understand the way you act
You put me down and push me 'round
Everybody laughs behind my back
I'm the butt off all the jokes they're telling
No matter what I do it's not enough
I never seem to satisfy you
I give you everything you want and more
I give you all my love and attention
I don't know why I love you but I always will
You treat me so bad but I've got no self respect
Got my head in my hands 'cause I've got no self respect
Must be easy for you when I've got no self respect
Do whatever you want 'cause I've got no self respect
I don't know why I love you but I always will
You treat me so bad but I've got no self respect
Is it easy for you when I've got no self respect
I'm ashamed of the fact that I've got no self respect
There's no way I can leave 'cause I've got no self
I've got no self respect

Never Stand, Never Fall
04:22

Music by Minime. Lyrics and melodies by Jim Trainor.
NEVER STAND, NEVER FALL
I'm petrified to leave my home
There's danger everywhere
My demons wait behind every turn
No wonder why I'm scared
My crippled life is of my design
Though unintentional
It's to the point that my closest friends
Don't even try to call
Never stand, never fall
Never move, never stall
A tiny sliver's where I look out
And no on can look in
A year since anyone's seen my face
Do they wonder how I've been?
My circumstances beyond my control
At least that's what I tell myself
The man in the reflection is
In desperate need of help
Never stand, never fall
Never move, never stall
There's gotta be a better way to navigate through this life
Yeah everybody moves around and somehow they still get by
I'll try
Never stand, never fall
Never move, never stall
Never stand, never fall
Never move, never stall

Rewind

Music by Minime. Lyrics and melodies by Jim Trainor.
REWIND
She's the best thing I ever had
I need some help from going mad
What I did, I simply can't undo
I'm perpetually feeling blue
Mediocre at my best
Order soon becomes a mess
What am I supposed to do?
Can't return back to every scene of the crime
Oh why can't we just rewind
Crash and burn, it's become such a way of life
I wish I could just rewind
She's moved on to another guy
I try to laugh, as not to cry
She sent me on my merry way
I've only got myself to blame
The damage is irreparable
The pain to her incalculable
And still it breaks my heart in two
Can't return back to every scene of the crime
I'd rather we just rewind
Crash and burn, it's become such a way of life
I wish I could just rewind

Searching
03:56

Music & Lyrics by Jim Trainor.
SEARCHING
There I go again searching on the outside
For what I'll only find within
There I go again looking for the answer
As if it's on a shelf with a buy one, get one free stuck upon its face
What's the point of ruthless competition
When what you want is found within
What's the sense of mass accumulation
A temporary fix, now your leaky bucket's dripping on your Gucci shoes
I feel I'm on an island by myself
And no one understands exactly how I choose to live
It isn't what we take but how we give
There I go again searching on the outside
There I go again searching on the outside
There I go again searching on the outside
Search from the INSIDE
