"Comin' Home" Call all of my friends...dear mother i can't say where i've been...dear brother too tired to sleep...i'm comin' home no time for singin' in the kitchen gotta let the water do the dishes it's too far to reach i'm comin' home the dream i had went on for years and years although i never left my bed i lived it all through the smiles and tears hidden like the price upon my head Call all of my friends...dear mother i can't say where i've been...dear brother too tired to sleep...i'm comin' home no time for singin' in the kitchen gotta let the water do the dishes it's too far to reach i'm comin' home the time before we live by different rules now they don't recall at all i feel their breath sing a song of fools rising like the mountain to the falls Call all of my friends...dear mother i can't say where i've been...dear brother too tired to sleep...i'm comin' home no time for singin' in the kitchen gotta let the water do the dishes it's too far to reach i'm comin' home (2010 db michel) I woke up from a nap where i was dreaming this song.

"I'll Always Be A Friend To You" no matter what i've said no matter what i've done somethings can never change no matter where we run whatever happens you know that it's true i'll always be a friend to you i may get angry i may be sad somethings i may regret when i'm trying to hold fast it may be hard to see but you know it's true i'll always be a friend to you the wins and losses in this life keep closing in sometimes it's hard to find my way but when i'm down the most and i think i've reached the end just a word or two can save me if they're coming from a friend i may act colder i may act dumb i know i can't be perfect but i'm not the only one when the word is said you will know it's true i'll always be a friend to you (2009 db michel) PROUD TO BE TFFE! |

"Foolish" foolish dreams keep my life afloat i don't know what they mean or even should i know does it mean a thing? or is it random nothing there inside foolish heart put my faith in nothin' i don't know what i see or even should i try is it meant to be? or is it empty nothing there inside i've got no one to depend on no one i can trust with all the madness of the day no one to believe it when i say the things i say no one to cling to when it takes my mind away i've got no one i can honor no one i can run to with all the pictures i can paint no one who can doubt me with the words i do not say no one to hang on to when morning chases dreams away (2010 db michel I wrote this just before hitting the shower this morning.

I'm with Mike. Very good! Anyone see Dan? Haven't seen hide nor hair. Is he searching for a real life also? I hope he doesn't find it. I want him back with us. |

"Rise" the string of time unwinding leads me to another day the way it was before was left behind along the way first i fought with my mind in the meantime then i said goodbye to the down time some will see me rise to the sunshine some will never know me again i gave up all resistance to the emptiness i felt where once was the good was blooming that good now goes to someone else first i fought with my mind in the meantime then i said goodbye to the down time some will see me rise to the sunshine some will never know me again i can say hello to my good friends i say it here with all my heart i can say goodbye without trying to the rest left on the shelf first i fought with my mind in the meantime then i said goodbye to the down time some will see me rise to the sunshine some will never know me again (2010 db michel) Sometimes you have to let things go that bring you down...Sometimes you have to let people go who have moved on without you...Sometimes you can say goodbye without trying...Sometimes you don't have to say a thing at all.

"I Knew It Was You" people think i never know that i'm oblivious to what's been going on 'cause i act so useless on this island that i'm on just to make it through another day sure you thought i couldn't feel i seem so graceless that i miss what you have done you think i'm hopeless every time i think i'm done then i make it through another day don't you know i feel the words that you don't say don't you know i feel the fear when you're pushin' me away I knew it was you all along there was nothin' i could do i always wanted to but the simple honest truth is i was just afraid for you i knew it was real but your objections kept me off an even keel i always wanted to but the simple honest deal is i was afraid to feel (2010 db michel) PROUD TO BE TFFE! |

"Rooms" Everything changes the days go by we couldn't stop it if we tried rooms full of wishes rooms full of dreams rooms full of empty rooms we can't see and I know we did the best that we could with all we didn't know we never had a plan and I know the indications are good that the better times outnumbered the bad I see what I can see we say what we can stand we live with the difference between what we want and what we have youthful and crazy easy and free those are the memories you and me rooms full of magic rooms full of pain rooms full of secrets rooms full of rain and I know we did the best that we could with all we didn't know we never had a plan and I know the indications are good that the better times outnumbered the bad I see what I can see we say what we can stand we live with the difference between what we want and what we have infinite dreamers believers in fate someday we know it's sooner than late rooms full of teardops rooms full of regrets rooms full of days rooms we can't get and I know we did the best that we could with all we didn't know we never had a plan and I know the indications are good that the better times outnumbered the bad I see what I can see we say what we can stand we live with the difference between what we want and what we have (2010 db michel) PROUD TO BE TFFE! |

"Justice and Unity" everybody's talking about justice and unity all the while they're waiting for someone to lead them everybody's wanting something to live for but they don't know it's already here everyone is dreaming of some great tomorrow leaving today to die lying fallow everyone wants a dream that will answer the question of why they are here all the world is pulling in different directions while the powers that be try to crush insurrections all the world is living on time that is borrowed the rent is now long overdue why do we have to suffer this shame? who are we? should we try to explain? is it time to face our fears? are they right? should we all disappear? everybody's talking about justice and unity all the while they're waiting for someone to lead them everybody's wanting something to live for but they don't know that it's already here (db michel) A friend of mine wrote a melody entitled Justice and Unity...I was just messing around and wrote some lyrics for it.

"Remember The Love" in just a minute there your world has changed someone in the world you loved forever gone away let the love sustain you from their living days let that love sustain you for one day you'll dry your tears and you'll remember the years the bright and shining living years you'll remember the love (dan) PROUD TO BE TFFE! |

A secret I will put my two hands on my mouth, to hush The world that, when I see you, to it rush. I will put my two hands on my eyes, for you Should in them find what I were fain you knew. I will put them on my bosom, to conceal That which might seem the desperate heart's appeal. And I will put them gently into yours, My two hands heavy with grief that long endures... And they shall come full of their tenderness, Most silently, and even with no caress, With the whole burden of a secret broken, Of which my mouth, eyes, heart had gladly spoken. Tired of being empty they to you shall come, Heavy with sadness, sad with being dumb; So desolate, discouraged, pale and frail, That you may bend, perhaps, and see them ail...
