Mind Games 14:09
Tell me what's the issue You don't have to lie There's something goin on There's something goin down Tell me what's the problem Can we compromise? I see it in your features I see it in you eyes It's those mind games You're playing with me Waiting for reactions What'll it be? It's those mind games You're trying to play But I don't think you're ready For what I have to say You always have a bone To pick with me Every little thing I do Offends you in some way Not one day passes you by When I'm not in your watchful eye It's those mind games You're playing with me Waiting for reactions What'll it be? It's those mind games You're trying to play But I don't think you're ready For what I have to say Just when I thought That it was all ok Looks like I messed up Now there's hell to pay Not one day passes you by When I'm not in your watchful eye It's those mind games You're playing with me Waiting for reactions What'll it be? It's those mind games You're trying to play But I don't think you're ready For what I have to say Seems to me As time passes by Those friendly smiles Become a disguise The one's who are against you Follow you closely Watch your every move Step on you when you fall It sure is no surprise I couldn't put my trust in you Another fake connection Another pack of lies Maybe I'm the one To challenge you instead Let the games begin, my friend Let the games begin... Here we go again I keep on sliding down The slippery slopes with you (Instrumental) It seems to be A war within our minds A race against time Looks like I'm late again The time has come The pressures on What are you going to do Make your move Here we go again You keep on rearranging the facts From the truth Here we go again Just take the blame And move along The problem isn't me It's you... No matter what you do about this No matter what you say about me No matter whatever makes you happy I still remain... I won't play the game No I won't No I won't I wont play the game No I won't You know I won't I won't play the game © Robert Edward Schaarschmidt, 2022.

Oasis 04:15
Take me Away to a foreign land Where the setting Sun Glides off the sand Anywhere but here Take me Away to a place I don't know Anywhere but here Show me The world you're chasing after Lure me Away from this disaster Bless me With all the loving laughter Oasis I'm drunk forever after Take me Away to a foreign land Where the setting Sun Glides off the sand Anywhere but here Take me Away to a place I don't know Anywhere but here Open your eyes You have broken through For the night you must ride With a secret crew It's hard to see With the sand in your eyes In the distance a glow The ecstasy of surprise You don't know how But now you are here An oasis away From the life you once feared Suddenly there's a burst in the sky The race is on You've never felt so high... Show me The world you're chasing after Lure me Away from this disaster Bless me With all the loving laughter Oasis I'm drunk forever after Take me Away to a foreign land Where the setting Sun Glides off the sand... A loyal virgin waits for you in a crystal castle With a psychic hue A softly spoken magic spell Brings you closer to all your dreams She will fulfill your fantasies She'll never bring you to your knees A gentle breeze Now draws the night A tender kiss The virgin holds you tight Save me From this world I thought was better Lure me Away from this disaster Bless me With all the loving laughter Oasis A fantasy here after Take me Back to the place I am from Where the setting Sun Doesn't kill the fun © Robert Edward Schaarschmidt, 2022.

I've reached the line I've done my time No more barely hangin on Desperation dusk to dawn Running around On a timeless flight No one can say What's wrong or what's right All I know There's no tomorrow Don't got time For pain and sorrow I've seen the light I'll be your guide Now that we have broken free Our true selves We now can be Running around On a timeless flight No one can say What's wrong or what's right All I know There's no tomorrow Don't got time For pain and sorrow (Instrumental) I will not halt my destiny No matter what you say to me I'm living high and you will see This timeless flight was meant for me We have reached the light Soaring hige No more barely hangin on Inspiration, dusk to dawn... © Robert Edward Schaarschmidt, 2022.

I think I need A second opinion I just can't seem to make A good decision for myself Forget about my intuition i won't believe it Unless it comes from somebody else My life is but a million questions And all I see Is but a million predictions The time has come I need a second opinion I need a friend to make My final decisions Tell Me What I Want To Know Tell Me What I Already Know Tell Me What I Need To Know Tell Me What I Already Know Tell Me What I Want To Know Tell Me What I Already Know Tell Me What I Need To Know...

Big Boy 03:32
Big boy Is back in town You don't know What's goin down Big boy gonna Spice things up Sippin' on jack From a coffee cup Blackin' out And throwin' down Never knowin' What he's done Always making bad decisions Big boy's here To have some fun tonight Big boy's back again Trolling in Trolling out Big boy Never gonna surrender He'll never listen to Opinions that matter In one ear And out the other Nothing gonna change This two faced mother His best friend Is good ole Jacky D But Jacky ain't the one That's gonna set him free I hope he finds What he's lookin for tonight I hope he finds What he's lookin for tonight Big boy Is back in town You don't know What's goin down Big boy gonna Spice things up Sippin' on jack From a coffee cup Blackin' out And throwin' down Never knowin' What he's done Always making bad decisions Big boy's here To have some fun tonight © Robert Edward Schaarschmidt, 2022.

Deep Down 05:25
You Once had that look In your eyes It was you and I A story of love But now we see the world Through different eyes Deep down Something keeps on Telling me to hang on And I know x3 I really shouldn't And you know Something keeps on telling me To let go And I know I really couldn't No matter what I say I can't stop thinkin' Bout your beautiful ways Oh the glory days Deep down Something keeps on Telling me to hang on But then the lights trickle down Thorns of abandonment Make my crown Babe You flipped my whole world Upside down And now you run away From my light You're someone else's Sweetheart tonight Deep down Something keeps on Telling me to hang on And I know x3 I really shouldn't And you know Something keeps on telling me To let go And I know x3 I really couldn't No matter what I say I can't stop thinkin' Bout your beautiful ways Oh the glory days And you know Something keeps on Telling me to hang on But then the sad wings Of loneliness Comes creepin' in again (Instrumental) Something keeps on Telling me to hang on Every time we meet A new disguise Something else to hide Thorns dig into my pride © Robert Edward Schaarschmidt, 2022.
