Somebody Said Somebody said that you're gonna go crazy I said, I know somebody said That you're gonna forget where you came from Forget your feet had ever touched the ground Somebody said that you blew all your money I laughed, I knew somebody said That you're gonna get more if you want it It's always there for you to throw around Chorus: I don't care what you do in your spare time I don't care what somebody said I could tell that you weren't in your right mind And you let it go straight to your head And somebody said Somebody said that you get what you pay for I said, I know somebody said You can't afford what you wait everyday for The only things you own are what you've found Repeat Chorus Words & Music by Scott Sechman © 2011 Scott Sechman

Sleeping With Demons I looked to the dark side of the road 'Cos my eyes were aching from the light I walked across that lonesome highway Like stepping from the day into the night I still wore my childhood dreams Like someone else might wear a coat My hands shoved deep into the pockets My heart stuck way up in my throat (Chorus) And sure enough I found there what I came for In the wind And though I can't remember every detail I think I'm sleeping with demons again Sleeping with demons again I had partaken of their pleasures But that was in my younger days And though temptation led me to salvation We had never really parted ways Their whispers always kept me thinking Their promises were empty lies A better man could see the baseless beauty A lesser man...he never tries Repeat Chorus I can't give my heart to Jesus 'Cos it's been ripped right from my chest A one-way ticket to damnation To be cast off like all the rest Repeat Chorus Words & Music by Scott Sechman © 2012 Scott Sechman

I Don't Want To Stay I don't want to say I don't want to say what you're doing to me I don't want to stay 'Cos babe I know you know that you're getting to me Chorus: I can't disguise what's happening before my eyes I found out today That I don't want to stay I don't want to be I don't want to be less than what I am I don't want to hear I don't want to hear about your other man Baby, I don't want to know Can't you see that it hurts me so ? Baby look into my eyes Then you'll see how a grown man cries Repeat Chorus I don't want to run I don't want to run away is all I'm saying 'Cos I can't stand the pain That looks to be the side effect of games you're playing Baby, all I got to show Is I can't stay knowing what I know Baby, what's it gonna be ? A case of him or just a dose of me ? Words & Music by Scott Sechman © 2012 Scott Sechman Repeat Chorus Words & Music by Scott Sechman

If You Give Me A Chance I've been unfaithful and I've been untrue You suffered so bravely all that I put you through Now that I've lost you I see what I've done For the love of another I gave up The One Chorus: If you give me a chance I'll tell you I'm sorry I'd keep any promise just to make up with you I'd beg your forgiveness and do what I have to do If you give me a chance to say "Babe, I love you" You're right when you blame me for your misery I was so selfish, my whole world was me But you stood by my side through the longest of days While I continued to hurt you in so many ways Repeat Chorus Bridge: How I've been longing to hear the love in your voice To feel your sweet arms around me I didn't give you much of a choice But darling I know now what you mean to me Repeat Chorus Words & Music by Scott Sechman © 2012 Scott Sechman

What's Up With That ? I guess I've hung too long and everybody knows I couldn't see what should have been plain I came on way too strong and I couldn't stop it growing But we weren't to be I've heard that again and again and again Though I've looked I can't find a way to stop loving you Chorus: What's up with that ? I think I've tried everything But still you don't love me' I've played every card I've have up my sleeve We made the connection, but forgot the affection Here's a note of rejection What's up with that ? Maybe I've tried too hard to please and be pleasing Maybe I wasn't myself and it's shown Maybe I'm crying too soon, the milk is still spilling But it's likely that I've always known what I've known And though I'm crying the tears dry as soon as they leave my eyes Repeat Chorus Words & Music by Scott Sechman © 2012 Scott Sechman

The Mission 03:55
The Mission I don't believe you when you say that you love me I do believe you just need someone around Your agenda won't allow me to be me Your only purpose is to keep me tied down You've got to be the one with total control With you I'm destined to a life on my knees I try to stop you but you're still on a roll I can't shoot straight when I'm just aiming to please Chorus: Just listen, this is the mission Don't choose to accept it and you won't be around Just listen, this is the mission To get along I go along And don't make a sound There's got to be some kind of real time solution One you can live with, one that I can endure Stop trying to occupy the next revolution If there's a master plan I'm not really sure You're not the only power structure in town There's plenty more out there who'll give me a try I pound the flesh enough to bring you around You're not so tough now that we stand eye to eye Repeat Chorus If I agree to these terms and conditions I got my own peculiar needs to fulfill If I submit to strip myself of position I must insist that I get my time to kill You've got to be the one with total control With you I'm destined to a life on my knees I try to stop you but you're still on a roll I can't shoot straight when I'm just aiming to please Repeat Chorus Words & Music by Scott Sechman © 2012 Scott Sechman

I Can't Find My Dreams
 They took my home, Sealed my fate All alone, Empty plate 
I can't cry, Nobody hears 
Why should I, Waste more tears ?
 When nobody out there, Speaks for me 
Nobody out there, Wants to see
 That I can't find my dreams 
I can't find my dreams 
Went to war, Fought the fight 
Held the lie, Held on with all of my might
 I came home, I saw the game
 Those that lead, They have no shame Why don't they stand up, And fight for me ?
 Why don't they stand up, And fight for me ? 'Cos I can't find my dreams
 They took away my dreams
I don't occupy my dreams
 I can't find my dreams 
 Where's the jobs ? Where's the hope ?
 Where's the end ? Where's the end of this rope ? The one percent, Without a heart
 Millions more, Playing the part
 Why don't they stand up And speak for me ?
 Why don't they stand up And fight for me ?
 'Cos I can't find my dreams 
I can't find my dreams
 They've stolen all my dreams I don't occupy my dreams 
'Cos I can't find my dreams... They've stolen all my dreams 
I want to occupy my dreams
 So fight for me 
Fight for me...

Bang Bang 06:31
Bang Bang (Words and music by Sonny Bono) Verse 1: I was five and you were six We rode on horses made of sticks You wore black and I wore white You would always win the fight Chorus: Bang bang you shot me down Bang bang I hit the ground Bang bang that awful sound Bang bang...my baby shot me down Verse 2: Seasons came and changed the time I grew up and called you mine You would always laugh and say Remember when we used to play Repeat Chorus Bridge: You were always young at heart You would say we'd never part I would always laugh and say Remember when we used to play ? Verse 3: Music played and people sang Just for me the church bells rang After echoes from a gun We both vowed that we'd be one Now you're gone I don't know why Sometimes I even cry You didn't even say goodbye You didn't take the time to lie Repeat Chorus Repeat Bridge Repeat Verse 3 Repeat Chorus © 1966 Cotillion Music, Inc.

Break My Heart, Too I've been looking for a girl like you Someone to love me the whole night through Just when I think that I've found The one that won't let me down She goes and breaks my heart, too Last night I was talking, talking with my best friend He said he'd met a girl who's the living end His description brought to mind the one I hope to find But she'd probably break my heart, too Bridge I've got a heart full of tears to cry Sometimes I just get so blue It hurts so bad as each night goes by Babe I' don't know what to do So I keep searching, hoping that I'll be strong And I'll keep praying that someone will come along Until then, I'm Mr. Lonely and should I end up with you You'd only break my heart, too Repeat Bridge Repeat Last Verse Words & Music by Scott Sechman © 2012 Scott Sechman

Love Gone Wrong You're so naive and that's a fact But you like to think you're so kicked back You have a brain that you never use Then you claim you've been abused So let's call it quits it's been too long Release your grip because there ain't no use in hanging on When love's gone wrong Your daddy's girl, you're Miss Regrets Impressions last, no one forgets In your head you think so small No one can tell if you think at all So let's call it quits it's been too long Release your grip because there ain't no use in hanging on When love's gone wrong Words & Music by Keith Rebaric & Scott Sechman © 2012 Scott Sechman

Back To What Used To Be When the smoke has cleared 
And the battle is done 
 When the ones we feared 
Have turned and run 
 We’ll head southward, homeward 
Back to the Land of Lee 
 Back to our future 
 Back to what used to be When the cannon has fired 
 On the Northerner’s sons 
 And we’ve avenged all the men 
 That we lost at Bull Run 
 We’ll go southbound 
 To sure ground 
To replant the dying tree 
 Back to our future 
 Back to what used to be Bridge: When we’re marching off 
 Of this Gettysburg plain 
 When the victory is finally ours 
We will bury our brave 
In the warm southern rain 
In the soil under stars and bars ‘Cos if God’s on our side 
 Like the general said 
 We have nothing to fear 
 We’ll live on when we’re dead 
 And the guns we once fired 
Heal the wounds that once bled 
 We’ll go southbound 
To our ground Back to the Land of Lee 
 We’ll go back to our future 
Back to what used to be
