New Material
(Joe Deninzon)
Every day is like an hourglass
Dove into you and swam a lap
I live an inch above the map
It's front-page news when I take a crap
I need a train running over me tied up to the tracks
I need a chained up psyche with a monkey on my back
I need a death threat deadline panic attack
I need a big bolt of lightning to strike me in the ass
Where's my material
I need new material
Reality check bounced last week
I hit the road like a psycho freak
Kerouac in wonderland
Reaching out for a helping hand
I need a smooth operator to screw me out of cash
I need a rare new virus with a constellation rash
I need a wall onto which my head I can bash
And lash out at the world in a car I can crash
Where's my material
I need new material

Old Ghosts
(Music and Lyrics by Joe Deninzon) ©2006 Fiddlefunk Music/BMI All Rights Reserved
So I went back to where I grew up and I saw familiar places
And the faces of the people who once touched my life somehow
And they all looked just the same and they hung out at the same place
But when we spoke I felt as though they just don't know me now
Cause they're just old ghosts passing through my life
They're just old ghosts silently float by
They're just old ghosts strumming that same tune
They're just old ghosts howling at the moon
Old Ghosts
I suddenly felt so alone and thoughts flashed through my head
All the people that once felt so close were now as good as dead
And in a distant time and place old memories remain
But now I realize my life would never be the same
Cause they're just old ghosts old friends disappear
They're just old ghosts vanish through the years
They're just old ghosts never to come back
They're just old ghosts stab you in the back
With every door we close we die another death
Life is full of one-night stands that vanish with a breath
That vanish with a breath
And I wonder how they see me same old guy they always laughed with
Same old face they always trusted but a different face inside
Maybe they think they've moved on while the world and I have stood still
Are they really that naive to think they're owners of this ride
Cause they're just old ghosts restless and unsure
They're just old ghosts trying to find a cure
They're just old ghosts wandering without aim
They're just old ghosts changing to stay the same

Sold out
Music and lyrics by Joe Deninzon and Mack Price
Broken promises Play a wicked game of Simon says
Risking everything Flying high until they clip your wings
You’ve been torn Long before you were born
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned
Evil guessing games Every move you make you feel ashamed
Tearing at the seams Crying out for all your broken dreams
You’ve been drowned Sold for a dollar a pound
Gone in a whisper Gone in a moment
Crashed before you hit the ground
You’ve been sold out
False alliances
Don’t believe in what your lifeline says Time and broken glass
Watered down to feed the unwashed mass
You’ve been had Slave to a world gone mad
All that you wanted All that you worked
You got and it hurt you so bad
You’ve been sold out
Sometimes everything aint what you wanna be
Sometimes everything aint what you thought it could be

TODAY IS TOMORROW
They say the river’s wide Don’t try the other side
Whisper don’t talk too loud You might attract a crowd
I see you on that hill Hiding your deepest thrill
Swallow the bitter pill Try to suppress the will
Dive into emptiness Swim in the sweet abyss
Vertical river flow Today is tomorrow
They’ll say keep it inside I say pick up your pride
Don’t run don’t try to hide Hang on enjoy the ride
Dive off the edge of time Painting your flesh with wine Blood sweat and tears will flow Today is tomorrow
Show me what this life means Crystalize every dream
Teach me what you don’t know Today is tommorrow
I know just how you think Brewing your bitter drink
You are the weakest link Your ship will slowly sink

Long Rd
(Joe Deninzon)
Elevate yourself son don't procrastinate yourself
Don't pollute yourself or overmedicate yourself
Stimulate your intellect and educate yourself
But whatever you do love yourself don't hate yourself
It's a long it's a long it's a long hard road (X3)
And I feel like I wanna explode
Find a mate for yourself don't humiliate yourself
Don't exaggerate yourself or overrate yourself
Hurry up don’t come too early don’t be late yourself
Choose your battles but don’t tempt the hands of fate yourself
It's a long it's a long it's a long hard road (X3)
And I feel like I wanna explode
Terminate that little voice that makes you burn yourself
Try to resurrect a better version of yourself
Settle down chill out shut up fuck off behave yourself
On second thought just get it over with and hang yourself
