Steal some time to discuss,
Wipe me clean.

Rob my innocence by suggestion.
Avoid your prison time and urge the mob to deceive!
(Lead Guitar rockout line)

It burns my skin to touch,
sends chills down my spine.
What’cha given me to read.
Slows my guts to a crawl.
Mixing blood and wine.
Flesh and wheat.

I can see by the size of the fire,
You’re not invested at all

If I gave right into to you,
and prayed to God,
Fall down to my knees.

‘No Worries’ by Ryan OToole © copyright 2012
Fm A E Bm
You made your bed,
Now just sleep in it,
And dreams will cut the words out.
Fm A E Bm
I grind my teeth,
grind my teeth to chalk,
finding words to say to you.
Fm A E Bm
Any fool,
Fool can carry on,
with grand delusions.
Fm A E Bm
Any dog,
Dog like me could find,
the best way through the fence...
You just don’t think about the time.
You just don’t focus on the time. Oh,
Fm A E Bm
Of all the things you planned and never did.
Of all the things you asked of me...
A E Bm
While you worried 'bout the time.
You just worried 'bout the time.
Oh, oh, oh
Ohhhhhhhh
Fm A E Bm
This neighborhood,
This hood’s a border town,
Plagued by numbers.
Fm A E Bm
This fallen tree,
Tree turned into boards,
boarding-up the doors to you.
Fm A E Bm
Of all the things you planned and never did.
Of all the things you asked of me...
All the things you said, and never did.
Oh all the things you promised me.

Novocaine (capo on G#) by Amateur Blonde
(written by Ryan Roger O’Toole copyright © 2012)
Late at night
The Trauma Light
Starts it’s beeping
Whose gonna pay for this?
Whose gonna pay for,
Twenty-two
Out of ten
The pain is seething
It’s unbelievable.
They’re unbelievable,
The less they know,
the more they say,
and what they mean,
gets locked away.
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Throw the shoe away
and trade it in for Novocaine
So not to speak the words
The words of mercy
If you cried out,
If you give in,
There’d be nothing left
to believe in.
And you didn’t plan for this
And you couldn’t plan for this
And you didn’t plan for this
And you couldn’t plan for this
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
