Alice 04:43
When Alice fell down the hole No one was around, no one heard her call Down down, down, down down she fell No one had heard, heard her yell Big and small were the potions in the room Alice took a sip, then went on a trip Chorus She’s happy now She’s in her world And she’s alive Thinking big or small Tiny or tall You know she’s alright She swims around and talks to a mouse, mouse, mouse, mouse A Caterpillar on a mushroom smoking his pipe "Who Are You?" Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum and the dodo laughed Listening to stories of the Mad Hatter's past The knave of hearts stole some tarts and the queen politely said "Off with their heads!" She’s happy now She’s in her world And she’s alive Thinking big or small Tiny or tall You know she’s alright Credits released 27 July 2014 Written and arranged by John Paul Guy all rights reserved

Damaged Goods 1st verse We share a joke in a room full of smoke Then someone spoke as we tripped the light fantastic Well it didn't really matter now it wasn't thought of as drastic It’s just a fact that you’re made of plastic If you’re looking for empathy you know there’s a critic in me And I am not just here to please you To tell the truth you’re starting to bore me To tell the truth you’re starting to annoy me Because this is how it is these days This is how it is these days Chorus Well if it aint broke then why do you really want to mend it If you give it a poke do you really think your fix it? If the feelings gone then why do you want to chase it If you make a wish you know your gonna waste it Turnaround: We don’t want any damaged goods No we don’t want any damaged goods Yeah damaged goods your damaged goods Yeah damaged goods your just damaged goods 2nd Verse You tell me stories about your past the present and all its glory And how life has left you un-satisfied While my mind drifts in to deep and I find myself falling asleep Wondering why and when the idea will start dawning Then the Minutes and Hours flow by And you’re ignorance has left me mesmerized You’re talking the walk but you’re not saying anything of worth To tell the truth it’s starting to annoy me If you don’t take life by the hands You’re never stop complaining Because this is how it is these days This is how it is these days Chorus Well if it aint broke then why do you really want to mend it If you give it a poke do you really think your fix it? If the feelings gone then why do you want to chase it If you make a wish you know your gonna waste it

This is Who I Am 1st verse I’m at cross at cross purpose now I don’t know who I am supposed to be I find that simple things seem to affect me We sit in silence while I call out your name Can you feel that I am in pain again? I see the shadows flicker around the room And all I want from you is Pre-chorus Lamoure Lamoure Qa sara sara What will be will always be Sa la vie Cause who I am is what I am Chorus x 2 This is who I am This is who I am This is who I am Well don’t you don’t you , don’t you understand Understand 2nd verse We sit under candle light casting silhouettes on the wall Wondering why and what is the purpose of it all We talk and talk until the hour is late And find ourselves making the same mistakes Not knowing which way we should have turned Then someone opens up Pre-chorus Chorus x 2 Solo section Chorus x 2 Outro

You can have it all. I’m having thoughts of yesterday Of roads I’ve walked that appear the same And if I seem troubled it’s because I’ve lost my way Because there’sNo religion I can follow these days And I’m Losing my will again and again It’s a constant Struggle to find the things you want from me Pre-chorus And if I seem nervous it’s because I’m really scared Because the future isn’t certain and you don’t seem to care We fight this battle of our wills again and again And I’m counting every second where you don’t complain We better move forward or we will go insane Were working our souls to an early grave Chorus x2 So Come on If you want it You can have it all If you need it So Come on If you want it Take it for free You must need it Take it from me you must want it Take it , take it I give it, give it, I give it for free I see a reflection and I see it looking back at me A former self of the man I used to be Shadows in my mind like echoes go on and on I finding myself just wondering who or what I am Can you help can you help can you help me please I’m losing my faith can you reach your hands out to me
