Lyrics

In this dirty old part of the city
Where the sun refused to shine
People tell me there ain’t no use in tryin’

Now my girl you’re so young and pretty
And one thing I know is true
You’ll be dead before your time is due, I know

Watch my daddy in bed a-dyin’
Watched his hair been turnin’ grey
He’s been workin’ and slavin’ his life away
Yeah, he’s been workin’ so hard, I’ve been workin’ too, baby
Yeah, yeah, yeah, ya, ya, ya, ya

We gotta get out of this place
If it’s the last thing we ever do
We gotta get out of this place’cause
Girl, there’s a better life for me and you

Believe me baby, I know it baby
You know it too

Lyrics I know I don’t belong here but where else can I go, When every door I knock on seems to tell me “no?” I was thrown a curveball that went right across the plate. But when I’m up to bat you know, I just swing away. I’ve got a couple choices left, meaning none. I’ve got a few lives to live meaning one, And then I’ll be finished, finé, done. I’ve been talking to myself so long, now I can’t shut me up. And I’m the worse listener, but I know it’s all I’ve got. Still, I’d rather sing than talk any day of the week, because I make more sense when I sing than when I speak. I’ve got a couple choices left, meaning none. I’ve got a few lives to live, meaning one, and then I’ll be finished, finé, done. The days just shed away like feathers. I’m bare skinned before you know it. So I bite my tongue and I hold my breath, and try to make the most of this. Well, I know I can’t complain but I can’t help myself. If they want the best of me, then they’ll get the worst as well. I’ve got a couple choices left, meaning none. I’ve got a few lives to live, meaning one, and then I’ll be finished, finé, done and then I’ll be finished, finé, done Composition © 2005 Hannah Bingman	Song Info Recorded in Winter and Spring 2005 in Lewisburg, PA Produced by Hannah Bingman and Kim Reichley Engineered by Kim Reichley Mastered by Bob Klotz Original Release: 2005 on the album Right, Right Now Performers Hannah Bingman Guitars, Banjo, Vocals Bruce Barr Slide Acoustic

Lyrics Today you woke up to a perplexing travesty The world turned on its side with the future on its knees But don’t give up, there are more songs left to sing Some experts started chanting stoic “realities” This life’s not worth advancing that you would not concede You don’t give up when at stake is everything For everyone knows the future While everyone pans the past And everyone cries for everyone who dies They lament that life couldn’t last Though everything is a challenge And everything takes so long And everything shouts “there is no easy way out” What won’t kill us will sure make us strong They tried to write your swan song Your imminent defeat You fought back with a vengeance Those words they had to eat You won’t give up While the movie has got some more scenes In everywhere see the future And ever-remembered pasts And never forsake every step that you’ll take To every lot that you shall cast And everyday make it happen And everyday chase that dream And everyday cry that you will never cease to try When redemption is your ultimate theme Tomorrow is a new day, another chance to be Another move towards freedom and opportunity The new girl, she’s waiting in the wings She won’t give up While there’s still more songs to sing Composition © 2008 Ric Albano Publication © 2010 Cygnus Wave Music	Song Info Recorded on December 8, 2009 in Lewisburg, PA Produced by Bret Alexander Engineered by Bret Alexander Mixed and Mastered in 2010 at Cygnus Wave Studios Original Release: 2010 on the album Dollars For Diane Performers P.J.

Lyrics We will turn into so many more Early detection only hope for a cure Silent unnoticed, a stealth attack Always travelling the path of least resistance Like a carnivore sneaking up on prey Dining from within, slowly gnawing away Till that fateful day you finally feel the pain You’ve got to kill us first or we’ll divide and conquer Playing hide and seek, but it isn’t some kind of game We’ll claim our ground and you’ll be left with nothing You can fight the fight but you’re never going to be the same The picture of health slowly fades away Then the fear takes over Like an icy drip into your veins Keep you medicated so you don’t feel the pain Recognize no race, no religion No age, no sex, no level of society You’ve got to kill us first or we’ll divide and conquer Playing hide and seek, but it isn’t some kind of game We’ll claim our ground and you’ll be left with nothing You can fight the fight but you’re never going to be the same Recognize no race, no religion No age, no sex, no level of society Equal opportunity destroyer Caught in the riptide sinking in the big sea You’ve got to kill us first or we’ll divide and conquer Playing hide and seek, but it isn’t some kind of game We’ll claim our ground and you’ll be left with nothing You can fight the fight but you’re never going to be the same Composition © 2009 Andy Shemeta & Tony Pepoli	Song Info Recorded in 2009 at Saturation Acres, Danville, PA Produced, Engineered, Engineered, and Mastered by Bret Alexander Official Release: 2011 on the album Tanker A Performers Andy Shemeta Bass, Vocals Tony Pepoli Guitars Talbert Ford Guitars Corey Woodcock Slide Guitars Steve Montresor Drums & Percussion Bret Alexander Guitar, Organ Song Facts The song was dedicated to Amanda and written in tribute to friends and family that have died way too early from cancer. On the other side, it is also in tribute to loved ones that have gone through the battle and won (but whose lives are never going to be the same).
