HOW TO SAVE A LIFE
Step one you say we need to talk
He walks you say sit down it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
And you begin to wonder why you came
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
Let him know that you know best
Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
i know nothing about it, yeah...
but i think i worth a try..
why you chose not to let me handle you and your world?

miss my home
This grown up lady outside
is a little girl after all
who needs her momma cooking to make her glad
and some daddy wise words to cheer her up
sometimes,
she wants to get back the security she used to have
when everyday she comes home
step into her comfort zone
now, she's out there all by herself
no more warm chicken soup
no more wisdom
no more home
so ma..
please remember to cook me something special when i get home
tell daddy that i'm still his little girl
and welcome me with the warmth of home
*i want to turn back time
to those moment i took for granted..
i wish i'd enjoy it more when i was there..
miss you guys so much..
