Forever's a lonely time and the dogs aren't always
Aren't always on my mind
'Cause I didn't free them
The scenery is burning me 'cause I'm still in it
So why don't you free me
'Cause its not my business
What he's done to me
Control is all you really need
And I can't believe it
I can't believe that
You didn't see me

Passing glances fall on me
Like screams on deaf ears
They're all laughing at me
With encouraging cheers
What he's done to me
Control is all you really need
And I can't believe it
I can't believe that
You wouldn't free me

Why don't you see me?
Why don't you free me?
I can't believe that
You don't believe me

I guess I had it comin'
My fault for not runnin'
I just dressed too tempting
'Cause your heads fuckin empty
And I can't believe it
I can't believe that you didn't see me

Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.

Techno Ted
Audioslave
Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
