I GOT SUNSHINE
words and music by S. Lane
words by J. James

I got sunshine
You’re on my mind
Sometimes I cry
I don’t know why

BLACK SHEEP GIRL
originally “Black Sheep Boy” by Tim Hardin

EIDOLONS
words and music by S. Lane
words by J. James
——————————————————————
No man is gonna make a groupie out of me
What they got, I do not need
They’ll never get me on my knees
No man is gonna make a groupie out of me

No woman’s gonna make a puppet out of me
I’ll rant and rave, do what I please
Be cool now baby I’m no tease
No woman’s gonna make a puppet out of me

No woman’s gonna make a Yoko out of me
In blood and bone and hair and nail
I always loved to no avail
No woman’s gonna make a Yoko out of me

No man is gonna make a fighter out of me
The things they do seem awful cruel
I like my style, I’m no one’s fool
No man is gonna make a fighter out of me

No one is gonna make a product out of me
I got my soul and I won’t sell
You’re all there living in your hell
No one is gonna make a profit out of me

TOMORROW WHISPERS
words and music by S. Lane
words by J. James
——————————————————————
Tomorrow whispers while yesterday screams
Rather than love, money, faith, or fame
Give me truth

——————————————————————
CHARLOTTE
words and music by S. Lane
——————————————————————
Charlotte was a girl who hid from the world all the magic she knew she had

Charlotte was a girl with silver tipped wonder and questions which made her mad

She’s tentative.  She can’t believe that the love she needed was me

Charlotte was a girl who hid from the world all the magic she knew she had

Charlotte is a girl who is no longer hiding in the shadows, she can see

——————————————————————
I’M UNKIND
words and music by S. Lane
——————————————————————
Yeah you say I’m unkind, only badness in my mind
While you’ve wasted my time upon your shadow of desire

All your lies cover my truth, you’re no longer any use so go back from where you came 
I’ll never see your face again

In the moonlight, I can go where I want to

——————————————————————
BUTTERFLIES
music by S. Lane
words by J. James
——————————————————————
It can’t be wrong
To feel you belong
In the presence of someone so fair

It won’t be too late
When the loving kills fate and you run your cold hands through her hair

I’ll say it again
It happened back when there was no one to hold in the night

It’s here we begin
Real love ain’t a sin
It’s happened
The dream’s taken flight

The dream’s taken flight

——————————————————————
TELL ME HOW
words and music by S. Lane
——————————————————————
Tell me how can I get back
To the place where we first met
Where to myself I quickly lied
Ignored the things you couldn’t hide

Tell me how can I get back

How can I get home?

I am angry and upset
You’re Montague, I’m Capulet
I told myself we were the same
To hide the guilt, the fear, the shame

Tell me how can I get back

How can I get home?

——————————————————————
A BEAUTIFUL SADNESS
words and music by S. Lane
words by J. James
——————————————————————
A beautiful sadness, go ahead and sulk
I’m trying to love you
I sing cause it’s useless to try and talk
I’m breaking from the bitter constraints of blood

Tonight all the stars are aligning
The morning will break
I see your eyes there a glowing
How much can we fake?

One day you will walk to my river and bathe
Yourself in it’s plenty
By then I’ll be long gone and all alone
You’re seeing I only had love in my heart

Tonight all the stars are aligning
The morning will break
I see your eyes there a glowing
How much can we fake?

——————————————————————
ENABLE THIS
words and music by S. Lane
——————————————————————
Respect, it ain’t free
No it don’t come automatically
Why do you think I’d look up to you?
I do all the things you don’t want me to

Enable this
I’d rather be myself than anybody else
I dig the moon and stars
You still don’t know who you are

The problem is you
You’ve done things that you can’t undo
Why do you think I belong to you?
I belong to myself, not to you stupid fools

Enable this
I’d rather be myself than anybody else
I dig the moon and stars
You still don’t know who you are

You should bow your head in shame
I’m not one you’ll ever tame
Everything is going to change
My life, you’ll never rearrange

BEAUTIFUL ISLE O’ER THE SEA
by A.P. Carter
——————————————————————

——————————————————————
I GOT BIG DREAMS
words and music by S. Lane
——————————————————————
We’re all alone
Some of us know it
Distract ourselves
Never show it

I’ve got fake friend
I go to work

I’m productive
I’m making dollars
My life has meaning

I’m not alone
I’ve got my children
They fall in line
And listen to me

I’ve got fake friends
I go to work
I have a drink
No one knows me

I’m productive
I’m making dollars
My life has meaning

SUICIDE IN THE TRENCHES
music by S. Lane
words by Siegfried Sassoon
——————————————————————

——————————————————————
I’M SICK OF WRITING SAD SONGS
music and words by S. Lane
——————————————————————
I am sick of writing sad songs
That just fall upon deaf ears
Will my fallen wish be answered
Will they ever care

I am just one of the many
Broken people in this world
Who were brought here to be lonely
A simple loving girl

These tears are cried in vain
Are we all really the same
Is there reason for this pain
Life is such a pointless game

——————————————————————
UP THE SHORE
music and words by S. Lane
——————————————————————
You could have been anything
I don’t know why you picked the life you did
I was born in your old form
Revealing all the secrets you had hid

How can little children understand
The distance of a man
Child appears as father once again

You took me on the boat you made
We sailed beside the pink rocks and the trees
It was like you knew the secret of the land
I’d hoped you’d share with

How can little children understand
The distance of a man
Child appears as father once again
