Track Name: Monster
I wake up; open my sleepy eyes
While tears glow like fireflies
Streaming down my cheeks
Weeping over something
That I can’t explain
I know you’re not to blame
I really think that no one is
But this just isn’t me
It’s not how I’m supposed to be
So I apologize

I’ve lost it; I’ve tossed away my mind
Over the smallest things I could find
To get upset about
And in a fit of rage
I reread every page
Of issues since long gone
But I won’t let them die
Until I’ve seen you cry
Accuse you of every lie
That you have never made

I had broken, but now I’m healed again
In sight there is no end
To my transformations
Between personalities
My mind’s gone and set them free
A modern Mr. Hyde
But you chose to stay on for the ride
You want to help me through
And not let this monster continue
I owe that to you
Track Name: Miss Loveless
Goodbye, Miss Loveless, I will surely miss you
While the same, for you, I know, is surely not true
But my heart goes out, or what’s left of it now
That it’s broken

Pack your bags, man; now go, and get out of my life
I’m so sick of our fighting; I’ve enough of our strife
And I just think that I need to have some time
To myself

Well won’t you please call?
Won’t you call me at all?
Do you remember girl how happy we were?
So long ago,
When we were in love
Don’t you remember at all?

Yes I do sir, but I confess: It was a lie
I just didn’t know how to say, “good bye”
Well, I guess you better hurry up and try
To forget me

Well it’s not that easy, miss, but I can’t explain
How I still can love you with of this pain
Self-inflicted, you say, since I am to blame
For it all

Well won’t you please call?
Won’t you call me at all?
Do you remember girl how happy we were?
So long ago,
When we were in love
Don’t you remember at all?

So goodbye, Miss Loveless, I must surely be off
And I must insist that you’ve done quite enough
To abandon all hope of our love, and you scoff
At the thought
Track Name: British Grenadiers
Some talk of Alexander, and some of Hercules
Of Hector and Lysander, and such great names as these
But of all the world's great heroes, there's none that can compare
With a tow, row, row, row, row, row, to the British Grenadiers

Those heroes of antiquity ne'er saw a cannon ball
Or knew the force of powder to slay their foes withal
But our brave boys do know it, and banish all their fears
Sing tow, row, row, row, row, row, for the British Grenadiers

Whene'er we are commanded to storm the palisades
Our leaders march with fusees, and we with hand grenades
We throw them from the glacis, about the enemies' ears
Sing tow, row, row, row, row, row, the British Grenadiers

And when the siege is over, we to the town repair
The townsmen cry, "Hurrah, boys, here comes a Grenadier
Here come the Grenadiers, my boys, who know no doubts or fears
Then sing tow, row, row, row, row, row, the British Grenadiers

Then let us fill a bumper, and drink a health to those
Who carry caps and pouches, and wear the loupèd clothes
May they and their commanders live happy all their years
With a tow, row, row, row, row, row, for the British Grenadiers
Track Name: Love
Love is real, real is love
Love is feeling, feeling love
Love is wanting to be loved
Love is touch, touch is love
Love is reaching, reaching love
Love is asking to be loved
Love is you
You and me
Love is knowing
We can be
Love is free, free is love
Love is living, living love
Love is needing to be loved
