Poor Maggie (Fallin Down)
Poor Maggie's run away
She didn't wanna stay here
Who could blame her anyway
Her life was filled with constant fear
She knows she's not the same
It seems like she's fallin: down
The rabbit hole, She don't know where to go
Poor Maggie's lost her way
Poor Maggie hopped a train
Destination: unclear
She didn't have a place to stay
What better way to disappear
Oh Maggie's not the same
She feels like she's fallin down
The rabbit hole. She don't where to go
Poor Maggie's lost her way
Now Maggie looks at herself in the mirror
She's become the thing that she most feared
Tears are falling down,
They're falling down,
They're falling down
I saw Maggie yesterday,
We said it'd been a few years
She didn't have a lot to say
But her eyes were filled with pain and tears
Poor Maggie's not the same
She feels like she's fallin down
The rabbit hole. She don't know where to go
Poor Maggie's lost her way

Wait a Minute
Tell it to yourself there's you and no one else
We know that you're the only one you'll listen too
You tell another lie millions more will die
But you'll keep on doing what you're going to do
You tell us you feel, we know that it's not real
Going through the motions like you run the world
I just want you know, it's happened all before
But i think this time you've maybe gone too far....again
Wait a minute wait a minute
I think you've reached the limit wait a minute
Cuz man, we're knee deep in it wait a minute
You've really lost control you dig a bigger hole
Destroying families only for your corporate gain
The public's not amused the government's accused
Of domination in a Hitler style campaign
The world's afraid to blink some think we're on the brink
And you keep on adding fuel to your war
I just want you to know it's happened atl before
But I think this time you've maybe gone to far...again
Wait a minute wait a minute
I think you've reached the limit wait a minute
Cuz man, we're knee deep in it wait a minute
How do you sleep at night?
As the bodies pile up da you feel delight?
You must know wrong from right
Or does all the violence whet your appetite?
You've drawn out lions in the sand you've shown us all your hand
It's time that we just call you what you really are
You think you're above the law your policies are flawed
I can't believe we let you get us in this far
I know your House will fall and so will your cabal
Let justice serve you for your crimes against the world
I just want you to know that it's happened all before
But I think this time you've maybe gone too far..again
Wait a minute wait a minute
I think you've reached the limit wait a minute
Cuz man, we're knee deep in it wait a minute

The Dateline
Too bad
I've lost another love along way
So sad
Cuz everything was fine til yesterday
As I contemplate procrastination
My feet just walk me back into the dateline
Back into the dateline
I'm glad
It didn't take much time to shut it down
I've had
A history of losing what I've found
As I complicate the situation
My feet just walk back into the dateline
Back into the dateline
Solo
I'm mad
I've left a nasty trail of broken hearts
I'll add a few more to the pile before I part
As I calculate the devastation
Surprised to find myself back in the dateline
Back into the dateline oh oh
Back into the dateline oh oh
Back into the dateline oh oh
Back into the dateline oh oh

Let Yourself Go

Let yourself go Craig McNair
You ever lie awake dreamin?
Your eyes are open but, they may as well be blind
The pictures in your mind you're seein
Is your imagination runnin wild
Let yourself go X2
Is it the eagle spirit guiding you home?
Or another sense that some are given?
Is it from gods on high, or thoughts still unknown?
Is it a life that we're relivin?
Let yourself go X2
Do you ever wonder where you're taken?
Or if there's something you're supposed to realize?
Is it a distant early warning?
Or just imagination runnin wild
Let yourself go X2
Is it the eagle spirit guiding you horne?
Or another sense that some are given?
Is it a rip in tirne to some ploce unknown?
Is it a life that we're relivin
oh
Let yourself go X4

It's Alright Craig McNair
It's late July
At the beach by the fireside
In your eyes
There's a look and I'm mystified
I can see that you know what it's like
To be lonely, even all alone
But you and me, we're the only ones around
It's alright
Late at night
Shooting stars and the full moonshine
Your hand in mine
We talk for hours about our lives
Now I know that you know what it's like
To be lonely, even all alone
But you and me, we're the only ones around
It's alright
Now you know that I know what it's like
To be lonely, even all alone
But you and me, we're the only ones around
It's alright
I know we never met when we were kids
We've grown so close so fast you think we did
No one has seen me quite the way you do
And I have never met someone like you
I like it, I love you
It's alright

Her

Her Craig McNair
The smell of early morning
in Nature's softest light
There's a breeze calmly blowing
To take away tire night
Watch the trees touch the sky
Feel the Earth come to life
No one will ever take that away from Her
The sunshine hits the mountain
Shadows stretch their hands
Water falls in rainbow fountains
That stream throughout the land
Far away, unrefined
There's a place lost in time
No one will ever take it away
No one will ever take it away from Her
bridge
solo
The nightfall brings a silence
in daylights final bow
A harvest moon slowly rises
To distant thunder clouds
Feel the rain wash away
So begins another day
No one will ever take that away
No one will ever take that away
No one will ever take that away from Her
They never will

You Don't Really

You Don't Really Craig McNair
You don't really love me as much as you might say
You don't really love me the thought of its insane
You don't really love me I should just walk away
You don't really need me the way you think you do
You don't really need me it's just a point of view
You don't really need me as much as I need you
You're always on the run
Looking for romance where there's none
All I need from you
Is just take one chance and ask yourself if it's true
You don't really want me I see it in your eyes
You don't really want me I hear it in your lies
You don't really want me it's time you realized
You're always on the run
Looking for romance where there's none
All I need from you
Is just take one chance and ask yourself if it's true

Honey Harbour Craig McNair
Long live Honey Harbour for its beauty so rare
You know you'll be happy once you're there
When you're standing on the shoreline
With all the boats in the Bay
Honey Harbour always takes you away
Long live Honey Harbour when the Sun's going down
As we sail The Bayliner through The Sound
Point the bow for Picnic Island
Or better still Beausoleil
Honey Harbour always takes you away
The Moon bursts through the trees
I love times like these
On a clear night, you can see a billion stars
Long live Honey Harbour where The Shield warms your feet
You can swim in fresh water in the heat
At the gates of Muskoka
Along South Georgian Bay
Honey Harbour always takes you away

Don't Blame Gravity

Don't blame Gravity. " Craig McNair
If you could see the things that I have seen
Or gone to all the places that I have been
Then you'd realize there's always a way out
If you had read the things you should have read
Or listened to the things the people have said
Then you'd realize there's always a way out
I know that life can be a merry-go-round
Sometimes you feel you're walking ten feet off the ground
Well don't blame gravity because you're feeling down
I hear you screaming but not making a sound
Cuz all the things you lost may never be found
But don't blame gravity because you're feeling down
If you had felt the things that you should feel
Or dealt with all the things you need to deal with
Then you'd realize there's always a way out
If you had heard the things you didn't hear
You wouldn't be afraid of all the things you fear
Then you'd realize there's always a way out
I know that life can be a merry-go-round
Sometimes you feel you're walking ten feet off the ground
Well don't blame gravity because you're feeling down
I hear you screaming but not making a sound
Cuz all the things you lost may never be found
But don't blame gravity because you're feeling down
