Tomorrows Sun (Tomorrows Dream)

TOMORROWS SUN (TOMORROWS DREAM) - Written by Carroll Bryant


I believe
That you may hold the key
That unlocks the door to all of my pain
And suffering
And I could think
That you are something more than I could dream
And happiness can only come 
When you are standing next to me

And I believe
That the sun will rise tomorrow
And we will wake up and discover
We are more than friends
And I believe
That the moon will put me to sleep
Inside your arms
Only to wake up and fall in love with you
Again

I believe 
That you may be the answer 
To all of the questions 
That everyone keeps asking me
And I could think
That you hold all of the power
And it would seem
That happiness can only come
When you are standing close to me

And I believe
That the sun will rise tomorrow
And we will wake up and discover
We are more than friends
And I believe
That the moon will put me to sleep
Inside your arms
Only to wake up and fall in love with you
Again

I will

And I believe that you could be an angel
With a little faith, I know
Together we could learn to fly
And I believe that I could see forever
Coming from your purest soul
And shinning deep within your purest eyes

And I believe
That the sun will rise tomorrow
And we will wake up and discover
We are more than friends
And I believe
That the moon will put me to sleep
Inside your arms
Only to wake up and fall in love with you
Again

Tomorrow I will wake up in your arms and fall in love again

I will

A Wasted Life

A WASTED LIFE - Written by Carroll Bryant 


We were like brothers
We hung together 
Me, you never did ignore
You were there on the double
Whenever there was trouble
That's what friends are for 
We were both crazy
We were both lazy
But we never did really care
We were too busy living
For some other reason than theirs

Remember the parties that we used to go to?
We wouldn't make it back home until dawn
Playing with jokers, aces and deuces 
Until the final curtain was drawn

Remember the women that we always picked up?
And then we broke their hearts the next day
We thought we were funning but we were just running
Away

Maybe you couldn't handle it
All the pain and the strife 
Maybe that's why you put a gun to your head that night
Maybe something was calling you and it was calling you that night
But now I can say in every way
That it was just a wasted life

Then one day I sensed a change
But I was too busy getting stoned
I didn't see that what you really needed
Was someone because you felt alone

What was the reason?
What was the problem?
Who is it that is to be the blame?
I guess it's too late to find any answers
But life without you won't be the same

And I can remember that night when they told me
What it was that went down
I stared into the darkness and searched for my feelings
But there was no feeling left to be found

Goodbye old friend

Maybe you couldn't handle it
All the pain and the strife 
Maybe that's why you put a gun to your head that night
Maybe something was calling you and it was calling you that night
But now I can say in every way
That it was just a wasted life

Seven Angels, Seven Trumpets

SEVEN ANGELS, SEVEN TRUMPETS - Written by Carroll Bryant


You staked your claim
And 
You committed the ultimate sin
It's your fame
Man
Can you stand and face the end?

Would you know a warning if it slapped you upside of the head?
The blood of Christ demands you to be 
Everything
So prepare for your day

Have you read the pages?
And
Have you read the words?
You can shrug your shoulders 
But have you even heard?

You want to say that it's just a book
You convince yourself that you know
If you don't give it a second look
Who is gonna save the sinners soul?

Don't pretend you don't know what it means
Is it real? 
Is it fake?
I don't want to believe

When the seven angels sound the trumpets
The noise will destroy the earth
The wrath of god will destroy the world
The sound will be coming down from the heavens
Seven angels
Seven trumpets

Watch for the star that is called wormwood
Many will die
It's the third one
Read revelations for all of the facts
Read it from the book
It's the ultimate one

Soon you shall commonly see
Soon you will come to believe

When the seven angels sound the trumpets
The noise will destroy the earth
The wrath of god will destroy the world
The sound will be coming down from the heavens
Seven angels
Seven trumpets

Read the book of revelations 
You will come to believe
Seek your salvation
It's there for you to seek

Have you read the pages?
And
Have you read the words?
You can shrug your shoulders 
But have you even heard?

When the seven angels sound the trumpets
The noise will destroy the earth
The wrath of god will destroy the world
The sound will be coming down from the heavens
Seven angels
Seven trumpets

Magic Of The Night

MAGIC OF THE NIGHT - Written by Carroll Bryant


The moment is in the night 
By the light of the sultry moon
I get so aroused 
By the smell of your mystic perfume

My thoughts are running wild 
They're cloudy to the point of confused
The power of your growl
Is feeding me 
Lust has become my food

In the magic of the night
You lose the will the fight
You just need release
Don't want to be teased
It's just so easy to fall in love
In the magic of the night
You don't care if it's wrong
You only know that it feels so right
Savoir-faire and you don't care
All you really want to do is fall in love
In the magic of the night

The moment is over
By the light of the stars 
The feeling has deserted you 
In the backseat of your car

You gave her all of your desires
When you got behind the wheel
The power of your passion
Now there's nothing left to feel

In the magic of the night
You lose the will the fight
You just need release
Don't want to be teased
It's just so easy to fall in love
In the magic of the night
You don't care if it's wrong
You only know that it feels so right
Savoir-faire and you don't care
All you really want to do is fall in love
In the magic of the night

Hear the bloody screaming?
It's just your midnight demons
Sometimes you try to outrun them
Other times you concede because deep inside you feel the need
You feel the power

In the magic of the night

You feel it burning deep inside
In the magic of the night

You can't escape human nature

 In the magic of the night
You lose the will the fight
You just need release
Don't want to be teased
It's just so easy to fall in love
In the magic of the night
You don't care if it's wrong
You only know that it feels so right
Savoir-faire and you don't care
All you really want to do is fall in love
In the magic of the night

It's just animal instincts

Nothing Better To Do

NOTHING BETTER TO DO - Written by Carroll Bryant


I walk the streets for hours on end
Trying to clear my mind
As I'm starting to descend 
I'm captivated by your face in my head
I could find something else to do with my time
But instead
I hide in my room
Turn on the radio
Lay back in my coma
And start dreaming about you

There's nothing better to do
There's nothing better to do
There's nothing better to do than to think about you

I reach into my thoughts to see your photograph 
I love to see you smile
I love to hear you laugh
I conquer my fears but only in fantasy
Hold you in my arms never to let you be
I make love with you
But it isn't true
It really isn't so, I know

But there's nothing better to do
There's nothing better to do
There's nothing better to do than to think about you

I hide in my room and turn on all of my dreams
I make sweet, sweet love with you
But it's all a dream
Not a reality
It's just a fantasy, but to me it's everything

You're everything I could ever need

And there's nothing better to do
There's nothing better to do
There's nothing better to do than to think about you
Yes, I think about you
I love to think about you
Think about you

There's nothing better to do

Waiting For My Heartaches To Mend

WAITING FOR MY HEARTACHES TO MEND - Written by Carroll Bryant




Hungry for love
I guess that’s what I am
I’ve suffered enough
Too many times I’ve been damned
Push comes to shove
To this I can’t hide
Tender to touch like sweet apple pie

And so the search continues
For a love that may not exist
Too many times I’ve felt like I’ve been used
Getting so upset and pissed at the world
Waiting for my heartaches to mend
Getting mad at the girls
Who are trying so hard to pretend
Why do I dream and fantasize?
When am I gonna realize?
Is every girl filled with lies?
There’s just too much pain in the night

Hungry for shelter
Seeking trust and respect
Life is a liar
And it’s lying again
So pardon the pun
You weak hearted bitch
Clap off, clap on like an electrical switch

And so I guess I’ll just go crazy
And pound my head up against the wall
Too many whores and not enough ladies
Getting so upset and pissed at the world
Waiting for my heartaches to mend
Getting mad at the girls
Who are trying so hard to pretend
Why do I dream and fantasize?
When am I gonna realize?
Is every girl filled with lies?
There’s just too much pain in the night

Is love just a roulette wheel you spin in the middle of the dark?
You lay your money down and bet it won’t even break your heart
Is love just a blackjack table without chips because you’re playing for fun?
I’ll be damned if still I’m able to catch me a number twenty-one

I always feel like I am on the run
Damn it to hell, who is the one?

Hungry for love
I guess that must be me
I’m scratching like hell
From all these female fleas
Tit for the tat
What the hell does that mean?
I’m watching them come then watching them leave

And so there is no answer
To the questions that I just can’t ask
Too many times I’ve felt like I’ve been bruised
Getting so upset and pissed at the world
Waiting for my heartaches to mend
Getting mad at the girls
Who are trying so hard to pretend
Why do I dream and fantasize?
When am I gonna realize?
Is every girl filled with lies?
There’s just too much pain in the night

Too much pain
Too much pain for to fight
Too much pain

Waiting for my heartaches to mend

Heaven Knows

HEAVEN KNOWS - Written by Carroll Bryant


Where have you been girl?
I've been waiting
You've been gone for way too long

Don't ignore me
Just level with me
Is there something going on?

I can tell by the way you refuse me
Too many nights have slipped away
If it's over then just come out and tell me
I'll pack my things and leave right away 
Because
Heaven knows
And girl it shows
Out on the town again
Why am I not surprised?
Heaven knows
And girl it shows
You messed around again
I can see it in your eyes

Is there another foreign lover?
Does he do things that I can't do?
Is he the honey with all of the money, baby?
Making me look like some kind of fool

Don't look away because you are not an angel
It's looking right now like we are temporary
You have a silence that drives me fucking crazy
It's working real hard on my sanity 
Come on now
Heaven knows
And girl it shows
Out on the town again
Why am I not surprised?
Heaven knows
And girl it shows
You messed around again
I can see it in your eyes

I shake my head in disbelief
I don't want this thing to end
No matter what I do I can't get relief
Tell me that it's over because I don't want to pretend 
Anymore

I can tell by the way you refuse me
Too many nights have slipped away
If it's over then just come out and tell me
I'll pack my things and leave right away

Heaven knows
And girl it shows
Out on the town again
Why am I not surprised?
Heaven knows
And girl it shows
You messed around again
I can see it in your eyes

My Personal God

MY PERSONAL GOD - Written by Carroll Bryant


I fly through the air with my wings extended
On a flight that never ends
In my searches I have been befriended 
Living in a barrel of sins

Valley's and mountains
Eating from a beggars hands
Drinking from holy fountains
Waiting for what I cannot pretend

I still can't deny
That this is my life
I traveled so far to fall from grace
Just to meet my personal god

And if I held you in my arms so tight
And made sweet love to you
Would that make everything all right?
What good would ... would that do?

Would you agree that it's never enough?
Sex surely is not love
Shaking hands with the devil tonight
Just to meet my personal god

And my journey continues
With each and every step or drink that I take
With you or without you
It all depends on how many hearts that I break

And still it's not enough
To be true

I still can't deny
That this is my life
I traveled so far to fall from grace
Just to meet my personal god

Could it be me?
Could it be you?
Can you break free?
Can you be true?

Everything amazing about you
Boils in your veins with your blood
I've been searching hell and high water
Just to meet my personal god

Would you agree that it's never enough?
Sex surely is not love
Shaking hands with the devil tonight
Just to meet my personal god

Getting ready to break my plans
For tonight
Just to meet my personal god

Down To Nothing

DOWN TO NOTHING - Written by Carroll Bryant


Every morning I awoke to the pain of another day
God I hope that the world is asleep
If not, I just hope it stays out of my way

What was I thinking?
There is this thing they call life
But I was refusing to live
Wishing that I could hold my breath forever
Repelling the suns light
I didn't want to believe in it
Green light, red light, yellow light and so
I was prepared to leave with nowhere to go 

I was down to nothing
You know it's true
Down to nothing
I was down to nothing with nothing to lose
Down to nothing
And there I was waiting for it all to end
When suddenly it hit me that it already did
And I was down to nothing

What's to believe in, if by chance, you don't even believe in yourself?
The pain is your heaven
The words are your weapon 
The heart is your living hell

What was I thinking?
There is this thing they call love
But I was refusing to give
Dreaming that I could just fly away
Stabbing my own back using my own blade
Morning time, noon time, midnight and then
I was prepared to go through it again

I was down to nothing
You know it's true
Down to nothing
I was down to nothing with nothing to prove
Down to nothing
And there I was waiting for it all to end
When suddenly I realized that it already did
And I was down to nothing

Here, there, everywhere and too blind to see
Believing that everything was just a conspiracy 
And I was down to nothing
Down to nothing

I was down to nothing
You know it's true
Down to nothing
I was down to nothing with nothing to do
Down to nothing
And there I was looking forward to the end
Much to my surprise, it already did
And I was down to nothing

Lady (My Love)

LADY (MY LOVE) - Written by Carroll Bryant


Just a prisoner in a fantasy
There was nothing to live for
Just a lost lamb in reality
Until you opened the door

I made mistakes that I would come to regret 
I'm human after all
It could have gotten worse had I let it
But a fall is still a fall

Then I noticed from a distance
Someone was waiting for me
I had to touch her
I had to love her
Now I'm living deep in ecstasy 

Lady
You are my love
You are my life
You're my desire
Lady
You're everything
You are my light
My only fire
Never had nothing so damn good
So believe me because it's true
The only hope my life has left is wrapped up in you
Lady, it's you

It appeared that the odds were against me
I had nothing left to prove
But my ship was still sailing the seven seas
Looked through my telescope and I saw you

I made mistakes and I soon discovered
I'm human after all
But now I have you to be my lover
Having the best time
Having a ball

Lady
You are my love
You are my life
You're my desire
Lady
You're everything
You are my light
My only fire
Never had nothing so damn good
So believe me because it's true
The only hope my life has left is wrapped up in you
Lady, it's you

Now I know what luck can get me
I had nothing else to lose
I had to touch you
I had to love you
A cannon full of love, baby, light the fuse

I made mistakes and I soon discovered
I'm human after all
But now I have you to be my lover
Having the best time
Having a ball

Lady
You are my love
You are my life
You're my desire
Lady
You're everything
You are my light
My only fire
Never had nothing so damn good
So believe me because it's true
The only hope my life has left is wrapped up in you
Lady, it's you

True Believer's

TRUE BELIEVER'S - Written by Carroll Bryant 


Have you seen the end?
Does it wear the face of a lonely man?
Can you speak the truth?
Is it paper thin and is it smiling back at you?

Well, I can believe 
That I can believe again and
I can conceive it happening again

Have you seen it there?
Does it look surprised my friend?
Knowing no one cares
Can you spare a dime this time?

If it cornered you, would you even mind?

Well, I can believe 
That I can believe again and
I'd be relieved if I did
If I really did

Have you seen the face of the forgotten souls?
And if you thought I did would you even want to know?

True believer's
Never believe that it isn't so
True believer's
Always believe more than they know
True believer's
Never believe that it isn't so
True believer's
Always believe more than what they know

Dark Silence

DARK SILENCE - Written by Carroll Bryant


The pain was still there * Blood spilled from the pores of my soul * My mothers voice echoed through the cold wind * But it was summer * I searched for meaning * Standing in a puddle of confusion * My feet wet from my hearts tears * Death was my shadow by the pale moon light * The stars were falling * There were no proud or profound words * Only the silence of darkness * My skin felt like stone when I touched my face * Thoughts burned my head * I closed my eyes to sleep for the rest of my life * I coward to my fear * My fear wasn't death * I ran towards the silence of the darkness * My fear was life * And so was my pain *

Fury (A Woman Scorned)

FURY (A WOMAN SCORNED) - Written by Carroll Bryant 


Should've seen it coming
Nothing else you could do
Standing in the doorway
Happening right in front of you
So you had to take it out
Point it right in their face
Smoke and fire filled the room
Blood and brains all over the place
So you had to take it out
Stared them straight into the eye
With a smile upon your face
Sentenced them both to die
Should've seen the fury 
There's nothing like a woman scorned
Then to read the story
Expect the worse
At best
Be warned
So you had to take it out
The madness filling up in your head
You were determined and had no doubt
Smoke and fire and now they're dead
So you had to take it out
Aimed it straight into the night
You were determined and had no doubt
A woman's fury takes two lives

Should've seen it coming

Desert Lights

DESERT LIGHTS - Written by Carroll Bryant 


Their flying like kites
Looking like pies in the sky
Go to bed and think that you're safe and sound
Hear a noise
Oh, boy
It's nothing but something landing on the ground
Touch down
Turn around
Look at what I found
You need to see it
For seeing is believing 
You can't believe it
This is blowing your mind

They're flying like nothing at all
Nothing like you ever saw
Nothing like you ever knew
Desert lights are shinning down on you

It's not Superman on a quest to save the land
Looking like pies in the sky

They talk to me
And we communicate
All the while the men in black
They sit and wait
Intimidate
But I'm not running
I'm not running away
I'm far from being nervous
I'm far from being scared
In the hopes of true believers 
They're flying absolutely everywhere

They're here
We're there
Thoughts that can radiate 
Dreams that they can confiscate 
Looking like pies in the sky
Gathering at will
Gathering tonight
To watch the desert lights

You have seen the movies
And now you get to see it in real life
Looking like pies in the sky
Watching those desert lights

Sex Fiend

SEX FIEND - Written by Carroll Bryant


I carry thoughts of you in my mind
I had a dream of you last night
Told you I loved you
You laughed and walked away
I woke up shaking

I should be hurting, but you see
I got reason to believe
That you're a sex fiend
(Baby, baby, you're sex fiend)
That your a sex dream
(Baby, baby, you're a sex dream)
You're a sex queen
(Baby, baby, you're a sex queen)
Make love to me
(Baby, baby, make love to me)

Baby, baby, you're a sex fiend

I didn't know what time it was
When I woke up
I only know I can't love you enough
My pretty little baby, buttercup

I should be hurting, but you see
I got reason to believe
That you're a sex fiend
(Baby, baby, you're sex fiend)
That your a sex dream
(Baby, baby, you're a sex dream)
You're a sex queen
(Baby, baby, you're a sex queen)
Make love to me
(Baby, baby, make love to me)

Baby, baby, you're a sex fiend

I know you got to be loving somebody else
Because I don't have the energy to satisfy you 
All by myself
If it sounds crazy, baby, then I guess it is true
I'm just paranoid of losing you

I should be hurting, but you see
I got reason to believe
That you're a sex fiend
(Baby, baby, you're sex fiend)
That your a sex dream
(Baby, baby, you're a sex dream)
You're a sex queen
(Baby, baby, you're a sex queen)
Make love to me
(Baby, baby, make love to me)

Baby, baby, you're a sex fiend
