Something to Bleed
The Ghost
I will play the lost one drowning in the mighty sea
You can play the lady looking sadly down at me
He can be your hero holding you in his arms
Telling you he loves you dazzling you with his charm
I will be the ghost who haunts you two
I will be the ghost who changes the mood
I will be the ghost who scares the hell out of you
Oh at night when you dream you only dream of me
How I tell you I love you but you only scream "let me be"
Don't you call for your hero I'll only scare him to his grave
With my games and dark tricks your sweet soul he can't save
I will be the ghost who haunts you two
I will be the ghost who changes the mood
I will be the ghost who scares the hell out of you
Oh at night when you love him I will whisper in your ear
All our distant memories he will only see your tears
He will try to play the hero saving you from the pain
Little does he know that I'll be back time and time and time again
I will be the ghost who haunts you two
I will be the ghost who changes the mood
I will be the ghost who scares the hell out of you

Shining Star
You drive away in your car Just left me at the bar
Headed home to him In fantasy I swim
And drink another one Still burning from the Sun
Captured in your eyes In Heaven's light I realize
You're a shining star I could follow far
You drive me crazy
Will there be a day When I hear you say
I love you, baby
Your power's all over me Like flowers in a tree
But nothin' doin' right now I've gotta shake this somehow
'Cause I'm a good-hearted man Trapped in his caravan
Of woulda-coulda days And half-written plays
And you're a shining star I could follow far
You drive me crazy
Will there be a day When I hear you say
I love you, baby
A smile of sunshine Lips that taste like wine
Eyes that seem to kiss And bring me home to bliss
Raven curly hair All call me to your lair
A devil there exists I could never resist
'Cause you're a shining star I could follow far
You drive me crazy
Will there be a day When I hear you say
I love you, baby

Here I Am
Thought I'd never see him again Gone forever they said
Walked to the wooded trees and lost his head
So I headed to the mountains Searched along the tree line
Baying to the Moon Man above the ridgeline
O where is he Is he in my head
And I do believe he might be dead
Fell asleep by an old pine Dreamt of far away places
So many thoughts of the old times and all the old faces
Then I woke to the howling of distant wolves and coyotes
Made me feel I belonged there with the critters and trees
O where is he Is he in my head
And I do believe he might be dead
So I searched over hill and dale through forests and small towns
Till I looked in the mirror and almost fell down
There he was inside of me screaming loudly to get out
Had I really forgotten it all and drowned in self-doubt
O Here I am back from the dead
And I do believe it was all in my head

1000 Roses
Here we are alone in your car
Eyes aim close yet so far
If I found my voice and made a choice
To say the words of rejoice
So we dance 'round romance
So we play afraid
There we run to bars for our fun
Minds wander lost lust has won
If I open the door to my soul's 13th floor
Touch your heart at the core
So we dance 'round romance
So we play afraid
So it goes 1000 Roses
Petals blowing away
Here I stand a proud broken man
Watch you slip from my hand
With no denial I'll stand here awhile
Nod my head and smile
So we dance 'round romance
So we play afraid
So it goes 1000 Roses
Petals blowing away
