The Stryder


I wake up lonely with no direction 
I don't know what to do with myself 
I can't get across this intersection 
where my fears seem to cross with my health 
gone are the days when I was so amazed 
with everything in front of me 
gone are the days when I was so amazed 
with everyone I might be 
the weight on my back of the world is cold 
but I don't know where it goes 
the weight on my back of the world's so cold 
but I don't know where it goes 
I'm gonna give it away 
I'm gonna give it away 
I'm gonna give it away 
but not today 

hey girl 
can you sing me the melody to your song? 
it's the first day of summer 
and I've already worn my winter coat 
so long 

all of them want just to photograph you 
cause they don't like the way that you move 
I just don't want to be photographed 
cause I got caught in the way that we groove 
gone are the days when I was so amazed 
with everything in front of me 
gone are the days when I was so amazed 
with everyone I might be 
I'm gonna give it away 
I'm gonna give it away 
I'm gonna give it away 
but not today 

say what you mean now baby 
mean what you say 
you know I wouldn't have it any 
any other way 
if I could tell you the truth 
would I lie to you? 
if I could tell you the truth 
would I lie to you?
