Why can't you see that you are my child, Why don't you know that you are my mind, Tell everyone in the world, that I'm you, Take this promise to the end of you. Speak with me my only mind, You take the legend for a fall, You saw the product, Walk with me

So, I'm writing' you this letter between rests 'Cause yesterday a bullet found my chest And I don't got the energy to dress myself And I can't walk without help I can't remember why I joined this war And I can't tell you what we're fighting' for I guess

Yesterday is history All we have is this moment So why don't you be here with me? Be here with me now Tomorrow's unspoken To put our love into motion Can you tell me Who called the race? Can anyone stay in one place?

Please don’t pass me by If I'm walking but I don’t know why Can you love me if I put up a fight? You see my oldest friend Tell her that I’m gone again You take my old guitar The one that I once said was ours Don’t be blue You hum that old tune

Sometimes goodbye is a second chance Tell my mother, tell my father I have done the best I can To make them realize This is my life I hope they understand I'm not angry, I'm just saying She waved, said, "Why are you always running in place"

Before I cry Hurry up, hurry up 'Cause I'm gonna cry If you say you don't need me I'm gonna cry if you act like you don't care Promise me, baby, you know I can't fake it Why don't you hold me? Tell me you love me Before I lose you

You remind me of a girl that I once knew See her face whenever I, I look at you You won't believe all of the things she put me through This is why I just can't get with you Yo, I ain't seen you in a minute But I got something to tell you See, the thing

Oh no, I just can't understand How come you want a change of plans? Oh, oh, bad da, oh, oh bad da, oh bad da What did I do to break your heart? Tell me the story from the start Play it cool, oh yeah, come on baby Come on and tell me why you wanna say

We won't run and hide I'm passing over you like a satellite So catch me if I fall That's why you stick to your game plans and party lives But at night we're conspiring by candlelight We are the orphans of the American dreams Oh shine your light on me

Better than he can You know that I could use somebody Tell me why are we wasting time On all your wasted cryin' When you should be with me instead I know I can treat you better than he can And any girl like you deserves a gentleman I know I can treat you
