Malambo Ska

When I was young I tried to be
The things you wanted me to be
I kept my thoughts inside my head
And never once I tried to change
The things you said I could become
Were buried deep inside my heart
Sometimes I feel like I´ve failed
But it was not your choice to make
(No matter how bad you wanted)
Now it feels like yesterday
When you were holding my hand
I tried to be part of your world
But now I know I never was
Sometimes to fall down on your knees
Helps to remind you that you´re free
And through the darkness of my days
Your light has guided me this way
It took me time, but now I know
The fears I had were not my own
I hope someday you´ll find the way
To realize I never meant
To make you feel you didn´t know
The person that I had become
It might be hard for you to see
But there was no choice left for me
(Can´t be a puppet on a string)
Now it feels like yesterday
When you were holding my hand
I tried to be part of your world
But now I know I never was
Sometimes to fall down on your knees
Helps to remind you that you´re free
And through the darkness of my days
Your light has guided me this way

Let Me Down

The ones I love were always left behind
The tears I cry will never satisfy
Though I keep telling myself that I know
The way things are, how to tell right from wrong
But heaven knows that I have worked too long
For things that now I know will never satisfy
There was a time you´re always there for me
But now it seems we only disagree
Cause on and on it´s just the same excuse
We never took the time to make it through
But heaven knows that I have worked too long
For things that now I know will never satisfy
Heaven knows I´ve been waiting
I´ve been waiting all along to be beside you
I never truly understood the things that drive us
To want more than we have and so we´re never satisfy
The things I want will never set me free
No matter how hard I try to believe
Are all the choices that I’ve made my own?
Or can I blame the world for what went wrong?
But heaven knows that I have worked too long
For things that now I know will never satisfy
Heaven knows I´ve been waiting
I´ve been waiting all along to be beside you
I never truly understood the things that drive us
To want more than we have and so we´re never satisfy
But heaven knows that I have worked too long
For things that now I know will never satisfy
And every time I try to reconsider
What I felt was true
You´ll never let me down

Seven Guns

7 guns that killed me
And 7 shots I take
coming down to take me away
From this never ending game
It´s getting hard to read you
When you´re clouding up my mind
So how can I relate to you,
When you´re always taking sides?
It´s hard to believe
And I know I can´t forget
That when I needed you the most
You sent me on my way
Help me now, I can´t see how it´s got to be this way
I´m giving up, I know it´s time
How it got to be this way?
It´s too late for regrets
There´s no place for second chances
I´m giving up, I know it´s time
Can I ever own what´s mine?
7 guns that killed me
And 7 shots I take
coming down to take me away
From this never ending game
It´s getting hard to read you
When you´re clouding up my mind
So how can I relate to you,
When you´re always taking sides?
It´s hard to believe
And I know I can´t forget
That when I needed you the most
You sent me on my way
help me now, I can´t see how it has to be this way
I´m giving up, I know it´s time
How it got to be this way?
It´s too late for regrets
There´s no place for second chances
I´m giving up, I know it´s time
Can I ever own what´s mine?
I´m giving up, I know it´s time
Can I ever own what´s mine?
I´m giving up, I know it´s time
How can I ever own what´s mine?
