Woe Isn't Me 01:58
In the middle of the night I can hear my baby weep I can hear her calling someone's name But that someone, woe, isn't me I can hear my baby laughing At something I cannot see I can tell she's really somewhere else But that somewhere, oh, ain't next to me I shouldn't worry so After all I'm gonna love her endlessly Even if there is someone else Lord, her heart was made for loving me

You've got exes in excess Wrecked up and reckless Hanging those pretty heads in shame And the young cheat just made off With the con that never paid off You were wild once but now you are tame Well you broke her little heart And never thought of looking back The graceful felling it was flawless But heavy as a heart attack Make no mistake Whatever you take It will never be enough What is worth using but not using up? Well things are finally getting good Now that that life has settled down And no one can say you aren't grateful For the little piece of peace you've found But do those sad faces haunt you In the darkness of the night? Do the voices of the fallen Warn you in whispers inside? Make no mistake Whatever you take It will never be enough What is worth using but not using up?

St. Stephen 04:14
I have blasphemed While I've told the truth I am a hypocrite That once said he loved you The little lies that calm the waters That stillness still drowns the same My failures built the beams But my conscience was foundation That house stood one good night And then began to shudder The fault lines were not to blame It's not you, it's me, just the same St. Stephen Is there a chance You will ever get even? Or do you gotta kill the man Who fits into the plan Of an earthly life worth living? At the banquet I intend to give a speech Go ahead and let me talk Until I start to preach The crowds eyes will listen But their ears will never see That I'm sleepwalking in forgotten youthful dreams I once stood for something Even I could believe The futures are not to blame I am either damned or I am saved St. Stephen Is there a chance You will ever get even? Or do you gotta kill the man Who fits into the plan Of an earthly life worth living? Riches I never had But if I somehow was Able to amass a fortune Singing songs of only love I'd give it all away This soldier was never meant for sleep St. Stephen Is there a chance You will ever get even? Or do you gotta kill the man Who fits into the plan Of an earthly life worth living?
