Losing My Mind (You Got Me)

LOSING MY MIND - Written by Carroll Bryant

You got me losing my mind

I'm running out of time

I toss and turn at night

And baby, I can't sleep

You got me losing my mind

There's nothing left to find

And even when I do, baby

You're all that I dream

I cannot believe 

Such beauty on just one girl

Sophisticated through and through

Rocking up my world

A high class lady

The high society kind

I started going crazy, baby

When your eyes met mine

You got me losing my mind

I'm running out of time

I toss and turn at night

And baby, I can't sleep

You got me losing my mind

There's nothing left to find

And even when I do, baby

You're all that I dream

Tender as the night

I need to touch your soul

Hold you in my arms real tight

Never to let you go

There's so much I want to give you

Kisses all over your skin

Don't make me go down on my knees

Unless it's for another taste of sin

You got me losing my mind

I'm running out of time

I toss and turn at night

And baby, I can't sleep

You got me losing my mind

There's nothing left to find

And even when I do, baby

You're all that I dream

This love is like a picnic in a beautiful park

Or making out under the stars and well into the dark

But there's just way too much feeling for me

It's breaking me up

It's shaking me down

It's really driving me

Crazy!

I cannot believe 

Such beauty on just one girl

Sophisticated through and through

Rocking up my world

Shaking up my world

You got me losing my mind

I'm running out of time

I toss and turn at night

And baby, I can't sleep

You got me losing my mind

There's nothing left to find

And even when I do, baby

You're all that I dream

You got me losing my mind

I'm running out of time

Soon I'm gonna really end up falling in love

Falling in love

I have fallen in love

Now I'm out of my mind

Roar Like Thunder

ROAR LIKE THUNDER - Written by Carroll Bryant

In the fast lane I am a demon

I keep my passengers scared and screaming

I have no mercy for anyone around

Going real fast as my girl is going downtown 

I keep the music playing real loud

Jamming on my own cloud

I drive it harder than anyone

Going real fast until my girl is finally done

I'mma roar like thunder

Roar like thunder

Going up, going under

Don't gimme no shit, man

Roar like thunder

I keep my foot hard on the pedal

Nothing but rubber, leather and metal

And if you wanna get technical

Nothing but sex and lust

So if you're ready for the big time

Meet me and then blow my mind

And maybe if you're hot enough

You can blow the big junk

I'mma roar like thunder

Roar like thunder

Going up going under

Don't gimme no shit, man

Roar like thunder

Drink a few beers 

Getting crazy, getting mean

Slap a few party girls around

Then slap them with a piece of meat

I keep my foot hard on the pedal

Nothing but rubber, leather and metal

And if you wanna get technical

Nothing but sex and lust

I'mma roar like thunder

Roar like thunder

Going up going under

Don't gimme no shit, man

Roar like thunder

Whispers In The Wind (Reprise)

WHISPERS IN THE WIND (REPRISE) - Written by Carroll Bryant

The whispers in the wind are speaking to me again

Blowing across my ears

And I still listen to them

My love is alive 

Only in you to survive

From beginning to end to the beginning again

I will listen to the whispers in the wind

The whispers speak of a love to be

A promise that echos through the trees

The whispers speak of a love so true

Does the wind talk to you?

Are you feeling it too?

The whispers speak of a heart and soul

That may never escape from the rain

The whispers speak in the form of tribute

Does the wind talk to you?

Are you feeling it too?

They say ....

The whispers in the wind speak to me like a friend

Blowing across my tears as I'm crying them

My love is alive

Only in you to survive

From beginning to end to the beginning again

I will listen to the whispers in the wind

And the whispers are forever my friend 

Momentary Lapse Of Uncommon Reason

MOMENTARY LAPSE OF UNCOMMON REASON - Written by Carroll Bryant

The dust

It takes a ride with the wind

Under the sun

The heat stares it down

No flower grows from the earth today

Don't ask me why

I can't explain

I can only make it worse

What is the worth of a lonely heart?

What kind of value can you get from something so broken?

Children live alone in their home

The parents die

They died long ago

The children are just runaways now

With runaway bones

Orphans at large

The dust will settle down

Clouds will drift overhead

And cool down the night

Like a bird, my vision flies far

To where my dreams overflow 

The morning dances with the dawn

Still, no flower grows

What is the worth of a broken life?

What kind of value can you get from something surreal?

Walking with the company of empty shadows

Of my own silhouette 

With nothing but my cigarettes and violent screams

And the rain

Rainbows disappear 

Footsteps in the mud become the only trail I leave behind

And I don't want to leave behind my fears 

What is the worth of a desperate man?

What kind of a value can you get from something so vain?

For such a life?

How much would you be willing to pay for a second chance?

And to the dust kissing the wind

Still, no flower grows

And so ends the dance

It's just a momentary lapse of uncommon reason

Still, the flower will not grow

And so ends a beautiful romance 

If It's The Last Thing We Do

IF IT'S THE LAST THING WE DO - Written by Carroll Bryant 

Sing your song

Don't let me down

Oh no, please, not tonight

I wanna lay in your arms because it feels so right

Look in my eyes

I will stay with you

We're gonna fall in love with each other 

If it's the last thing we do

And baby, if you need me

(Oh honey, you know I do)

Then I will stay right here by your side

And keep your heart warm with mine

Look in my eyes and you will see

That I need you too

We're gonna fall in love with each other

If it's the last thing we do

I don't want to give you up

I just want to lay here and become one

For as long as we possibly can

And I think you know what I mean

When I say that in love we can dream 

To stay here for the rest of our lives once again

Sing your song

Don't let me down

Oh no, please, not tonight

I wanna lay in your arms because it feels so right

Look in my eyes

I will stay with you

We're gonna fall in love with each other 

If it's the last thing we do

And baby, if you need me

(Oh honey, you know I do)

Then I will stay right here by your side

And keep your heart warm with mine

Look in my eyes and you will see

That I need you too

We're gonna fall in love with each other

If it's the last thing we do

Look into my eyes

I will stay with you

Right here by your side

I will keep your heart with mine

And you know it's true

We're gonna fall in love with each other

If it's the last thing we do

So, let's fall in love together

Even if it's the last thing we do

Some Call It Evil

SOME CALL IT EVIL - Written by Carroll Bryant

This world can get me down

Forcing me to the underground

Where cannibalism runs amuck

And bodies desire a nasty fuck

I dwell with angels lost in sins

Sex and drugs are their only friends

Death is the lover where life is the game

Torture is the reason they have no name

Some call it evil

Some call it mean

Some call it nightmares 

Some call it dreams 

Some they whisper

Some they scream

Some just call it evil

I light the candles to feed my soul

Drinking the blood of those I don't know

My wasted breath lingers in the air

Spirits like to rape you in the devils layer 

I have a notion

A time to thrill

I have a need and it needs to kill

I have a hungry, savage appetite 

I am the shadow that stalks you in the night

  Some call it evil

Some call it mean

Some call it nightmares 

Some call it dreams 

Some they whisper

Some they scream

Some just call it evil

Nobody really cares about god

To most he's nothing but a fucking dog

Always barking up somebody's tree

While Satan forces him on his hands and knees

Death to Christianity!

Some call it evil

Some call it mean

Some call it nightmares 

Some call it dreams 

Some they whisper

Some they scream

Some just call it evil

Cinderella (Chimerical)

CINDERELLA (CHIMERICAL) - Written by Carroll Bryant

The moon has eyes and it can see

The love I feel for you in me

Together

Alone

To be what will be

The wind to speak

And as always, Autumn Leaves

The breath of love is forever life

To cherish the Dawn because Dawn is the light

Dawn is love

Dawn is life

I to be the husband and Dawn to be the wife

For so now it is said and forever to be written

A heart that is dead from the pain of being smitten

And to dwell inside a souls cold winter

But never to say it could never come back again

My Cinderella, please come to thee

For the moon has eyes and it can see

My love for Cinderella 

One Legged Dog

ONE LEGGED DOG - Written by Carroll Bryant 

Sometimes I feel so ashamed 

When I see the face of the human race

An able man without a job

Society's one legged dog

Why am I so discontent?

Is it something inside of me?

A one legged dog, you see

Can't scratch away the fleas 

A burden for society 

We look right through them like a ghost

Their situation is what we fear the most

Temper the sadness with a dose of our insane

Close my eyes

Walk on by

Find someone to blame

Why am I so discontent?

Is it something inside of me?

A one legged dog, you see

Can't scratch away the fleas 

A burden for society 

Why am I so distraught?

The meaning of our nation is lost

A one legged dog, you know

Can't help our economy to grow

A burden for society 

Sometimes I feel numb to the pain

Witness the true effects of the human race

Run away

Don't even walk

Turn the corner and go down a block

Run away

Don't even talk

Turn the corner and ..... one legged dog

High Society

HIGH SOCIETY - Written by Carroll Bryant

You're watching your TV shows all day

Soap operas all the way

From 'All of My Children' to the 'Guiding Light'

You're living in your crazy world every time

High society

You know that it's not for me

Everyone is crazy and that's a fact

High society 

You know exactly what I think

Everyone is dumber than a horses ass

They only play with each others minds 

Sleeping with the neighbors wife

Taking everyone's candy away

Nobody plays fair

Nobody even cares about the other

When you turn your channel to 'Ryan's Hope'

You're only making yourself into a dope

You don't even care what it does to your brain

But you know what I think

I think high society stinks

High society

You know that it's not for me

Everyone is crazy and that's a fact

High society 

You know exactly what I think

Everyone is dumber than a horses ass

You know it's not for me

You know that it will never be

High society 

You know exactly what I think

I think high society stinks

High society

You know that it's not for me

Everyone is crazy and that's a fact

High society 

You know exactly what I think

Everyone is dumber than a horses ass

I think high society stinks

Pedophile

PEDOPHILE - Written by Carroll Bryant

Close your eyes and find a dream

Don't say a word

Don't even scream

Tonight you're mine my little child

You're in the hands of a pedophile

I know that you don't want to

You know what I'm to do

I really, really want you

There's nothing you can do

Oh, you just gotta let go

From your feelings I swear

As I will take you there

There's nothing you can do!

Tonight you know you're mine

On and on and on it seems

Too many secrets that you must keep

A heavy cross that you must bear 

Starry eyes with no one there

I know that you don't want to

You know what I'm to do

I really, really want you

There's nothing you can do

 

Oh, you just gotta let go

From your feelings I swear

As I will take you there

There's nothing you can do!

Tonight you know you're mine

You lost your heart

I take your soul

Fly away as far as you can go

Tonight you lose your innocence 

You spread your legs but it makes no sense

 

I know that you don't want to

You know what I'm to do

I really, really want you

There's nothing you can do

 

Oh, you just gotta let go

From your feelings I swear

As I will take you there

There's nothing you can do!

Tonight you know you're mine

Everybody's Coming Down On me

EVERYBODY'S COMING DOWN ON ME - Written by Carroll Bryant

It's always people applying the pressure

Trying to make me scared (Or something)

Sometimes it works

Sometimes it doesn't

Then there's the times when I really don't care 

But it's never been this bad before

Everybody seems to be knocking on my door

Everybody's coming down on me

Hot and heavy 

Harder and harder 

Everybody's coming down on me

Hot and heavy 

Harder and harder 

Yeah!

Same old thing, got to pay this bill

Who do I owe all of this money to?

I only work to give it away to a stranger or two

Now Uncle Sam wants to draft again

Tell me when is it gonna end?

Everybody's coming down on me

Hot and heavy 

Harder and harder 

Everybody's coming down on me

Hot and heavy 

Harder and harder 

Yeah!

My girl friend says that I need to do better

My mother tells me to call her more 

Or send her a letter

My boss keeps yelling at me too

"You got to work a little harder"

"Work A little Faster"

"You got to do a better job!"

Sometimes I feel like

Sometimes I feel like

Sometimes I feel like everybody's coming down on me

Hot and heavy

Harder and harder

Everybody's coming down on me

Hot and heavy 

Harder and harder 

Yeah!

Hot and heavy

Harder and harder

Yeah!

Maybe We Both Are Blind

MAYBE WE BOTH ARE BLIND - Written by Carroll Bryant 

She don't know how she feels

She won't tell me if her love is for real

She don't know herself

She says she needs some more time

Well, I would probably give her anything that she wants

Especially when it comes to love

But then again I don't know myself

I guess I could use a little more time too

Maybe we both are blind

We can't see pass the light

Only in the darkness of the night do we hide our fears

Maybe we both are blind

We could be running out of time

Only in the darkness of the night do we cry the tears

We don't seem to know what we should do

Maybe we both haven't thought this through

We can't figure it out ourselves 

Obviously we need more time

Well, we could dig out of our own holes

Especially if it was to find our own souls

Then again we're still confused 

And everything is passing so fast in our minds

Maybe we both are blind

We can't see pass the light

Only in the darkness of the night do we hide our fears

Maybe we both are blind

We could be running out of time

Only in the darkness of the night do we cry the tears

If it turns out we both end up alone

How much would it hurt?

How far could it go?

If it turns out we both die by ourselves

How much worse could it get?

Would our spirits ever forget?

What keeps the fools from ever learning?

She don't know how she feels

She won't tell me if her love is for real

She don't know herself

She says she needs some more time

Well, I would probably give her anything that she wants

Especially when it comes to love

But then again I don't know myself

I guess I could use a little more time too

Maybe we both are blind

We can't see pass the light

Only in the darkness of the night do we hide our fears

Maybe we both are blind

We could be running out of time

Only in the darkness of the night do we cry the tears

Maybe we both are blind

Taking Me To The Top

TAKING ME TO THE TOP - Written by Carroll Bryant 

Whenever you are near me my heartbeat skips a few

I want you to know that I'm so in love with you 

Baby, what's your secret?

Honey, what's your mission?

Do you really want me in this kind of condition?

So in love with you 

You're taking me to the top

Taking me to the top

Taking me to the love 

Whenever I see you my stomach turns upside down 

I want you to understand I need you girl, and I need you like, now

Baby, what's your reason?

Honey, what's your passion?

Do you really want me in this kind of fashion? 

So in love with you

You're taking me to the top

Taking me to the top

Taking me to the love 

Baby, what's your secret?

Honey, what's your position?

Do you really want me in this kind of condition?

I'm so in love with you

I don't know what to do

It seems my words are few

My song is out of tune

You're taking me to the top

Taking me to the top

Taking me to the love

Only The Dead Can Play

ONLY THE DEAD CAN PLAY - Written by Carroll Bryant

You mustn't be afraid

Here, we are all the same

Trapped inside our graves

Where the blood is dry

This is such a peaceful place

Pain is written on our lifeless face

Here is where we stay

Where only the dead can play

No need to leave so soon

Staring up at a yellow moon

Me lying next to you

And the blood is dry

This is such a dreadful place

Fear is written on our expressionless face

Here is where we lay

Where only the dead can play

Only the dead can play

Beating hearts must spend their lives

Trying to run away

But never can they escape

The place where only the dead can play

The spirits know how to haunt you

The angels watch you burn 

Terrified, they will possess you

Live to die and then maybe you will learn

The fog will be your day

The cold air rising will be your thing

Horrified, life will forget that you are alive

Live to die and that's the only way it can go

This is such a lonely place

Love is so soon erased on such a plain face

Here is where you parry the blade

Where only the dead can play

Only the dead can play

Beating hearts must spend their lives

Trying to run away

But never can they escape

The place where only the dead can play

You mustn't be afraid

Only the dead can play

Terrified, you live your little life

Live to die and then ... you die

Horrified that life will forget you're alive

Live to die and that's how it goes

Trapped inside a horror show

Trapped inside your grave

Where only the dead can play

Whispers Of The Wind

WHISPERS OF THE WIND - Written by Carroll Bryant

Little do we know about fate

Leading us to where we should be

One has to be strong for the road is so long

And in the end, shake hands with destiny 

I know that you're just too young

For a man so infested with pain

But the gentle surprise came when I looked into your eyes

And now I'm standing in the falling of the rain

Let it rain

Set to sail my ship across your ocean

When love is my emotion then the waters become my friend

Time will tell

And answer with conviction 

If you are my addiction

Then carefully I'l listen to the whispers of the wind

Little do you know of my heart

Longing just to beat in your life

It has to be you for I swear to the moon

If it isn't, then take me tonight

I pray to god and my faith

Trusting in the echos of my soul

For in the palm of your hands

My eternity stands

To be revealed or simply to let go

Let it go

Set to sail my ship across your ocean

When love is my emotion then the waters become my friend

Time will tell

And answer with conviction 

If you are my addiction

Then carefully I'l listen to the whispers of the wind

Too many times I fought the devil

And in return God laughed at me

When I was touched by an angel

The heavens crucified that deed

But fair ain't fair

And fate don't care

I know it that you don't feel the same

Comes the pain

Oh, what the hell do I think that I am doing?

What the hell am I proving by trying to pretend?

For time will tell

And answer with conviction 

If you are my addiction

Then carefully I'll listen to the whispers of the wind

My friend

My friend

Emotional Distance

EMOTIONAL DISTANCE - Written by Carroll Bryant 

You never seem to let me see you cry

You turn away and let the tears roll

Down your face each drop falls

And I can't seem to let it go

You keep your distance from me

This distance is emotionally 

And I just don't understand it

Haven't I been good to you?

Am I not a fine enough man?

Haven't I done the things you want me to?

Still, you run away when you can

You never seem to let me hold you close

Even in the darkest night

I try my best as the story goes

You only put up a fight 

You keep your distance from me

This distance is emotionally 

And I just don't understand it

You keep your distance from me

Going through the motions physically

Is this the way you planned it?

I know you keep his memory inside

Shutting me out in the process

To secret places where you and him hide

You and me equals loveless

Haven't I been good to you?

Am I not a fine enough man?

Haven't I done the things you want me to?

Still, you run away when you can

Haven't I been good to you?

Do all the things that you want me to?

Yet in my love you still can't believe

You turn away from me

I turn away from you

I realize now I'm just hanging on

You let it go so soon and easily

Even though I continue to completely refuse 

You still turn away from me

Haven't I been good to you?

Do all the things that you want me to?

Still somehow I can't believe

You turn away from me

You turn away from me

You turn away from me

I turn away from you

When It Comes To Me

WHEN IT COMES TO ME - Written by Carroll Bryant

Sometimes I'm foolish

I'm just not that wise

I wear a costume to cover up my disguise 

I could be wrong whenever you are right

But you fulfill my days 

You light up my life

And when it comes to me

Girl, you're all I need

Yes, when it comes to me

I finally see just what you mean to me

Girl, when it comes to me

And I finally see that you're all I really need and 

It comes to me

Now sometimes I'm stubborn

You've already seen

When I get crazy and when I get mean

Sometimes I'm happy

And sometimes I'm sad

But girl, you're still the best thing I've ever had

And when it comes to me

Girl, you're all I need

Yes, when it comes to me

I finally see just what you mean to me

Girl, when it comes to me

And I finally see that you're all I really need and 

It comes to me

Like a shot in the dark

Or shot in the heart

From out of nowhere

I finally realize that I do need you

Like a crack in the sky

On a thunderous night

From out of nowhere

I finally realize the truth

And when it comes to me

And I finally see

Just what you mean to me

It comes to me

And when it comes to me

Girl, you're all I need

Yes, when it comes to me

I finally see just what you mean to me

Girl, when it comes to me

And I finally see that you're all I really need and 

It comes to me

Field Of My Dreams

FIELD OF MY DREAMS - Written by Carroll Bryant 

Behold unto the kiss of family and friends

Where joy begins and extends

Never ends

Behold emotions that travel light years ahead

Where the past is present and in the future's bed

Behold of love within the beating heart

Where the living, giving soul plays a part

Behold the majesty of ones sacred life

Where marriage doesn't always mean to a wife

Behold the mountains of an endless odyssey 

Where destiny meets and mates with eternity

Behold the oceans reflective blue sky

Where hope is born and rainbows thrive

Behold our nature that bleeds onto this earth

Where greed never heeds and makes everything worse

Behold the truth and love what it means

Where family and friends can gather

In the field of my dreams

Cinderella

All this love I feel inside that you don't feel the same?

And it's killing me to keep it from your heart

Can't you feel it, baby?

Feel it all over

Just open up to love

Open up

To my love
