Living on latte A cigarette Sunday I've never been down like I feel now I'm clearing my head out Waking up downtown Another day down Another day down I'm changing my ways I never want to make you cry I don't want to waste it I don't want to waste it I'm changing my ways I never want to make you cry I don't want to break it I don't want to break it I don't want to break your heart I don't want to lie to you I don't want to see you cry I don't want nobody to lose Everything I do Everything I do Everything I do Everything I do, I do for you Just for the night let's make it right I want to be your only light Look in my eyes just for the night I want to be your only light Your only light Only light, only light Only light, your only light Driving in silence With emotional violence Wishing I was a bit stronger We are none of us perfect Might as well face it All I can say is "I'm sorry" I don't want to break your heart I don't want to sneak around I don't want to see you cry And I don't want to let you down Everything I do Everything I do Everything I do Everything I do, I do for you Just for the night let's make it right I want to be your only light Look in my eyes just for the night I want to be your only light Your only light Only light, your only light Only light, your only light Only light, your only light Only light, your only light

Survive 03:23

If all we are is broken Then we are all the same. Time will come with nothing What we have is hope And no more chains I couldn't help but notice There might be a heart that we can share I'll just be here waiting For you to want for me to want to stare Maybe I overstated There's nothing there to break it We weren't going to make it Now I know I should have seen this coming I was obsessed with loving I couldn't get to something So I tried to survive To survive, survive We used to sit together Now there's someone in my way. I don't see much forgiveness What we have is hope And no more chains I couldn't help myself, I Wanted you too much and let it show I'll just be here waiting For you to want for me to come back home Maybe I overstated There's nothing there to break it We weren't going to make it Now I know I should have seen this coming I was obsessed with loving I couldn't get to something So I tried to survive To survive, survive

Krister Axel New York

Hi, my name is Krister Axel. I am a roots-rock veteran of the indie music scene, and I have a degree in Poetry. I am a published lyricist, composer, and songwriter. I started playing piano in White Plains, New York because our black upright piano fascinated me and my sisters hated their piano lessons. That was in the 80's and I have never stopped writing songs.
My music blog is called CHILLFILTR. ... more
