In A Jar On A Shelf

Where are you now?
How's your day been?
I saw you in the crowd
But I…I didn't get a chance then
And I don't know if now is right

It's about the other night
I was on the run (gotta get that job done)
If Only then I could have the knowledge spent
To find out who you are…now is then

Just if I knew so far back then
If only I knew what was right

It comes and goes
Go to every picture show
I t was so different then
Rembemer the time we spent?
Bt only tomorrow hos what will be foretold

Back Stabbing

I've told yo a thousand times
Not to play any games
You're messin' with dynamite
It explodes in your face
You're screwing with my life
Someday you will pay
You got my mind paralyzed
I won't take your disgrace
Now you're just buying time
The dominoes are placed

And you're setting me up
Just to tear me down
One of these days
I'll turn it around (to you)
'Cause your taxes are due
And now it's my turn to screw you

You've played your every part
Right up to the cue
You're pulling my mind apart
Insaniity looms
I'm sick of your silly games
My turn to reverse the play
Just you wait for the day
Back stabbing in your face
You're such a disgrace.

Lines (Three Different Kinds)

Following the lines on the road
The yellow one tells you where to go
White lines on the side say you're out of bounds
These are the lines your car ought to know

Little mounds of fluffy white snow
Cut across the glass, a Hollywood show
The're a hundred miles long
These are the lines you put up your nose

Really like a crack
You look into a mirror
Thes are the lines we feared would appear

DIfferent types of lines
Day to day life
Got to be careful
They are all of a dangerous type

Here they are
The lines
Three different kinds

Zero

I'm asking you
Do you take life light?
Do you live the way you like?
Nothing really changes
I grow older by the day
Seems that nothing gets accomplished
I'm standing in one place
Frozen like a lake
Will progress come with change?

I can't take standing in one place
Wanna get out of this state
If only for a little while
It's the same, morning to night
Just stand your bitter trial
Take what's coming just like a little child

I could stand up and scream
But it would still be the same
A futile attempt to erase the dreams
It's behind me, surrounds me, all around me
Unknown destiny

So afraid of what it might be
Will I float on the top or drown in its sea?
Can only tell when the futures released
When will its lifeblood pump through me?

When The Big Numbers Run

When the big numbers run
The catman dreams…

"He turned on to, too much to soon
You'll never see blue skies
It's your final frontier
Your time is here"

When the big numbers run
You have to stay on top
When your runnin' hot
You know you're not gonna stop!

And all the things that you know
Well they start taking their toll
And you know that it's time to go
You're at your wits end
No time to pretend
The big numbers grow
And on they go

When the big numbers run
