Be Good 02:00
I wish that I could tell you something That would turn your life around Like some winning coach Picking you up off the ground But I'm just as lost as you searching through the lies to find the truth The best that I can do is be good to you and hopefully you'll be good to me I'm not looking to change the world just fix up mine if we get back what we put out why not just be kind? I'm just as lost as you picking through the lies to find the truth The best that I can do is be good to you and hopefully you'll be good to me We hear the words so often they don't always stick but do unto others means just don't be a dick

You've got so much to say, but no one to say it to You sound so profound but you haven't got a clue Your such a shame a stray without a name It's sad and I'm sorry but if you got lost, no ones starting a search party Whisper or yell it's all the same When no one's listening, everyone's to blame I'm not much for advice, but this i know You can't keep watering weeds expecting flowers to grow You've got so much to give, but no one to give it to You're packaged so pretty, but obviously used a brand name at a dollar store out of place and so unsure It's sad and I'm sorry but if you got lost, no ones starting a search party Whisper or yell it's all the same When no one's listening, everyone's to blame I'm not much for advice, but this i know You can't keep watering weeds expecting flowers to grow

Superman's got Lois Lane and Wonder Woman on the side Spider-man's got Mary Jane because Gwen Stacy died Batman had cat woman but only for a little bit he had too many issues (get it?) so she had to split All the good men are taken don't be depressed Hit me up, I'm the best of what's left Iron Man's got Pepper Potts and so much cash it's stupid I'm sure Aqua Man's got someone, but I'm too lazy to google it The hulk had a thing with Black Widow, how about that and Hawkeye had a family, before Thanos snapped All the good men are taken don't be depressed Hit me up, I'm the best of what's left The first Robin had Starfire Tim Drake had Stephanie Brown but no one liked Jason Todd so he got voted down The Joker had Harley Quinn but she left him flat It's a low bar, but I know I'm better than that

Don't hurt your arm Patting yourself on the back Your forced charm is starting to crack You tell everyone you can find You didn't mean to make me cry That's a lie My eyes are dry You think you're winning but there's no game your walking away with nothing but a bad name You tell everyone you can find You didn't mean to make me cry That's a lie My eyes are dry

Outside 03:11
I saw you on a bus maybe trying to get home I used to know so much about you but from here on it's unknown Now, I'm living on the outside of your life I watched you walk away on to something new you're so much better at this than me I keep forgetting to forget you Now, I'm living on the outside of your life

about

I promised I wouldn't wait another 7 years to release new music. Turns out I didn't wait one. The quarantine kept going and I kept writing and recording. Here is the "Extra Credit" to my "Home Work". 6 new tunes with that patented Mark Parker Sound (Mark Parker Sound = cheap instruments recorded with cheap, outdated equipment). Hope you like it!
