How Long?

Words & Music Cole Brightbill



Buried beneath these terrible lies

He can’t find a way

Robbed under his very own eyes

Still alone he lays


Way down deep, he still rides

on the thought of his last day

Underneath the roof where he hides

The world is

Slipping

to

Grey


Why, why can’t he find?

the truth to be told

is there any one out there?

No


(Chorus)

How long?  How long does he need us?

How long?  How much longer does he have?


Can’t climb the mountains of sorrow

Even the ones he didn’t make

You can tell he’s turning to madness

And after this he’s out to kill 


Well, why?

Where does he come from anymore?

Behind the bars

There’s no where to go


(Repeat Chorus)

EXODUS


Words & Music by Cole Brightbill


It’s hard, livin’ off strings

that’ll save your night and leave you sleepin’

it’s time to show the show

play the night and share your feelin’s

can we try to live our life

and forget about our kneelin’

gotta try

to run away

gonna sail the seven seas

gonna get ya tonight

gonna land someday now

waitin’ for the light

gonna be provocative

gonna be a fight

there’s gonna be a fight


When you find the exodus of my life

maybe then will you be free

when you see the reason I’m still sittin’ here alone

maybe then you will be free


nothin’ called the good ol’ days

do you see why

beaten by the sun’s rays

then turning to the right

quarter past the midnight hour

they started a riot

there’s gonna be a fight


how can’t you see the end

how can’t you understand

that I will

shoot to kill

and live my life

happy and known

own yeah!


When you find the exodus of my life

maybe then you will be free

PSA 34


Words & Music by Cole Brightbill


I spend life watchin’ time on a line

Nothin’ I can do but sit there gazin’

I’m gonna take a turn in my life today

I can’t sleep, but what’s that gonna do

I’m gonna stop at the gates of hell

Turn around and come back wasted

I don’t know what’s comin’ tomorrow

But yesterday don’t show me well


This is PSA

Number 34

I don’t know why

You like me anymore

This is PSA

Number 34

I don’t really care

Who’s on my dance floor


This food ain’t gonna help my hunger no more

I don’t care if I”m deaf or dumb

I know you think I”m wrong right now but

Think if you were me you’d think no other

I spend life watchin’ time on a line

And yesterday don’t show me well
