Outlaws On the Run

WE WERE JUST KIDS WHEN WE STARTED OUR DESTINY,IN A WORLD GOING TO HELL.
WE BECAME WHAT WE WERE MEANT TO BE,WE NEVER COULD GO BACK TO WHAT WE WERE 
BEFORE IT ALL BEGAN,WE HAD FRIENDS FOR COWARDS,KEPT TRYING TO TURN US IN FOR 
MONEY,CAN'T YOU SEE THEY WERE NO GOOD AT ALL,WE WERE MEN IN A WORLD THAT 
NEEDED OUTLAWS SO WE BECAME OUTLAWS ON THE RUN,I TOLD YOU WE WOULD BE 
FAMOUS,JESSE CAN'T YOU SEE,WE SHARE THE NAME AND THE CAUSE,JESSE CAN'T YOU SEE 
WE ARE FAMILY,OUR NAMES WILL LIVE ON THROUGH THE AGES,WE'LL NEVER BE 
FORGOTTEN,CAUSE WE ARE OUTLAWS ON THE RUN

Whiskey Lullaby

TONIGHT HE SITS AT THIS BAR.
THE BOTTLE HIS ONLY FRIEND
THROUGH TEAR-STAINED EYES
HE TAKES ANOTHER DRINK
TO CHASE AWAY THE PAIN
OF THE LOVE HE COST THAT NIGHT
HE HAS TO PLAY TONIGHT
HE TELLS THE CROWD
THIS IS MY LAST SONG FOREVER 
THEY SAW THE PAIN IN HIS EYES
THEY FELT IT FROM HIS HEART
AS HE SANG A WHISKEY LULLABY
NOONE EVER KNEW THAT NIGHT
THAT HE HAD A LOADED GUN 
IN HIS BELT 
HIS FINAL PRAYER WAS ANSWERED
WHEN HE SANG A WHISKEY LULLABY.
                                                                  BY:

The Truth

I NEVER UNDERSTOOD A THING INTIL I GOT OLDER.
WHY THEY FEARED ME.
WHY THEY HATED ME.
WHY THEY GAVE ME UP.
I KNEW THEY DIDN'T LOVE ME.
BUT I DIDN'T CARE.
I AM THE LONE WOLF ON THIS LONELY TRAIL.
EVERYONE SAW THE PAIN IN MY EYES.
AND THE TEARS FROM MY HEART.
I WAS BAD FROM THE START.
THEY KNEW IT ,I KNEW IT TO
BUT FORGET EM I DON'T NEED THEM.
LET THEM BURN.
I AM THE ONLY PASSENGER ON THIS RIDE TONIGHT.
NOONE CAN HIDE THE TRUTH,NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE.
I MADE OUT ON MY OWN JUST FINE.
MY HEART WAS ALWAYS BLACK AS STONE.
I DON'T NEED THEM.
I AM THE ONLY RIDER ON THIS ROLLER COASTER CALLED LIFE.

What I Was Looking For

I FOUND WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR THE DAY THAT I FOUND YOU.
NOONE EVER KNEW THE PRICE I WAS GONNA PAY TREACHERY AND MY DISHONESTY.
NOW I AM PRAYING AND ASKING FOR ONE MORE CHANCE TO MAKE IT RIGHT WITH.
NOW THE TIME IS AT HAND THAT EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW TO YOU.
AND EVERY TONGUE SHALL CONFESS YOUR HOLY NAME ON JUDGEMENT DAY.
OH LORD I FOUND WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR THE DAY I FOUND YOU.
OH LORD WE BLESS YOUR HOLY NAME.
CAUSE YOU AND YOU ALONE ARE OUR KING OF KINGS.
NOW THE TIME HAS COME THAT WE STAND AT YOUR THRONE.
OUR TRANSGRESSIONS AND EVERYTHING WE'VE DONE WILL BE JUDGED FOR ALL 
ETERNITY.
OH LORD I AM GLAD THAT I FOUND WHAT I WAS LOOKING FORTHE DAY I GAVE MY LIFE TO 
YOU.
OH LORD HOW I LOVE YOU SO AND I BLESS YOUR HOLY NAME.

Diamond In the Sun

DIAMOND IN THE SUN
               HOW COULD IT BE THAT HER EYES GLISTENED LIKE DIAMONDS IN THE SUN.
               SHE WAS BEAUTIFUL AS THE MORNING DEW THAT FALLS TO THE GROUND.
               HER TOUCH WAS AS SOFT AS THE MIST IN THE NIGHT SKY.
               HER HAIR WAS AS BROWN AS THE NIGHT SKY.
               HER LOVE FOR ME WAS AS PURE AS A NEW BORN BABY.
               HER BODY WAS AS WONDERFUL AS DIAMONDS IN THE SUN.
               IT'S A TREASURE TO BEHOLD THE BEAUTY OF THIS EARTH.
               AS DAY TURNS TO NIGHT THIS DIAMOND IN THE SUN LAYS BESIDE ME FOREVER 
               MORE.FOR AS A LIFETIME WILL ALLOW I WILL HOLD HER FOR ETERNITY.
               KNOWING THAT THIS DIAMOND IN THE SUN LOVES ME FOREVER MORE.

                                                                                    BY,MICHAEL JAMES

In My Life

IT SEEMS LIKE A THOUSAND YEARS SINCE I USED TO WALK ALONE.
NEVER KNOWING LOVE TIL SHE KNOCKED ON MY DOOR THAT DAY A FEW MONTHS AGO.
AND SAID HOW SHE LOVED ME SO.
HOW SHE WANTED TO BE MY WIFE AND HAVE A BABY WITH ME.
SHE HELPED ME THROUGH IT ALL WHEN EVERYONE WAS SAYING THAT I AM NO GOOD.
THE LOVE WE SHARE IS ENTERNAL.SHE IS THE MOST WONDERFUL PERSON I KNOW.
CAUSE SHE TAKES THE TIME TO LOVE ME SO.
OH GOD HOW I ADORE HER SO.SHE TURNED AN ANGRY MAN INTO A LOVING MAN.
THEY ALWAYS SAY THAT BEHIND A GREAT MAN STANDS A GREAT WOMAN.
SHE IS THE BEST WOMAN FOR ME.
GOD BLESS HER FOR PUTTING UP WITH ME.
SHE HAS CHILDREN I ADORE.
SOMEDAY OUR LIFE WILL COME FULL CIRCLE.
WHEN WE SAY I DO BEFORE GOD AND THE WORLD.
IN MY LIFE NOW I KNOW ONLY LOVE

The Lion

AT last she walks beneath the starry skies
                        to be seen by ghosts of the past
                        forever tormented by the darkness of death
                        forever walking among the mortals
                        this tormented soul can never rest because of sins of the past
                        thus why this tormented soul walks forever among the mortals
                         quote the lion never more
