Lyrics for
cell phone blues

Cell Phone Blues

on my way back home

I left my cell phone

on a subway platform

how stupid can I be?

I get on the train

like there's nothing wrong

realization hits me

I'm a mile away

I let out a scream

and I turn my way back

and hope that my cell phone

wasn't stolen away

And I swore to god

that I'd sell my soul

just so my cell phone 

would still be right there

I get off the train 

and lo and behold

my precious cell phone

was still plugged in right there

But my mind went dark

when I realized

I'd given my soul away

for a little piece of plastic

I still can't beleive

that I am not free

that I am a slave

 to technology

Carry On

Carry on, carry on

we raise a glass to you

we wish that you could have

seen all we could do

so we'll carry on for you

we lay him down like a king

if we'd had known he was in pain

that wonderful idiot 

could've had the world

so we'll carry him on in our hearts

Carry on, carry on

we raise a glass to you

we wish that you could have

seen all we could do

so we'll carry on for you

we'll carry on for you

Red Tape Lines

Chased down all the time

demanded to pay the fine

my soul don't look good

drowning in red tape lines

I don't wanna die

I just wanna feel alive

Life always gets so tough

never can get enough

days where I get no peace

I just want some sweet relief

Don't take it away

the joy to life, you'd make me pay

I cannot obey

don't wanna life my life so afraid

I never can be strong

but I know my right from my wrong

a child dies everyday

for it, every man must pay

If I were to relent

I'd just be a shell of a man

Love, pride, joy, hate, and fear

Have you no emotions, my dear?

I'd rather life go unplanned

than to go on living in a can

I'd rather be uncontrolled

than to be forced into the mould
