‘Wasted’ — #lyrics to a #pop #rock song

Wasted
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

bar hopping yet again
stagger through the dark streets
daring cars to hit me
hoping they do
then I wouldn’t have to think of you
the past is just regret
that’s why I have to say

wasted
the drown my sorrows
wasted
swimming in drink
wasted
that way I don’t have to think

I’ll have another shot
hoping it’ll put me in the dark
don’t know how to express
all the loss I feel
that you won’t be near me
it’s all over now
but the drinking

wasted
the drown my sorrows
wasted
swimming in drink
wasted
that way I don’t have to think

(bridge)
when I’m sober
the pain is intense
can’t stay on the fence
but what can I say
maybe I was made this way

wasted
the drown my sorrows
wasted
swimming in drink
wasted
that way I don’t have to think
wasted
wasted
wasted
wasted

‘Cigarettes, Beer & Tears’ — #lyrics to a #country #pop song

Cigarettes, Beer & Tears
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

the pain inside never stops
the years pass on by
cigarettes, beer and tears
is all I got
long for your love
but it’s gone for good
as maybe it should

cigarettes, beer and tears
cigarettes, beer and tears
are my only friends I’m afraid
how long does it have to be this way
cigarettes, beer and tears
cigarettes, beer and tears

our love was once strong
but it was all a lie
you’re gone I have to admit
with a painful sigh
won’t regret another drink
while I have another smoke
the tears keep falling
into my beer

cigarettes, beer and tears
cigarettes, beer and tears
are my only friends I’m afraid
how long does it have to be this way
cigarettes, beer and tears
cigarettes, beer and tears

(bridge)
I was sober once
had you by my side
those were days of joy
now they’re gone I’m afraid
all I have is
cigarettes, beer and tears
cigarettes, beer and tears

cigarettes, beer and tears
cigarettes, beer and tears
are my only friends I’m afraid
how long does it have to be this way
cigarettes, beer and tears
cigarettes, beer and tears

‘Don’t Look Back’ – #lyrics to a #pop #rock #ballad

Don’t Look Back
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

keep your eyes on the prize
if you look back
you’ll taste salt
the bitterness will get you
and you’ll just be a pile
of guilt in the sand

don’t look back
is my refrain
don’t look back
the past is receding fast
history can’t be changed
believe me I’ve tried
don’t look back
don’t look back
don’t look back

in my dreams it’s all fixed
your love returns in a second
then I awake and have a drink
guilt for what could have been
is going to kill me in the end

don’t look back
is my refrain
don’t look back
the past is receding fast
history can’t be changed
believe me I’ve tried
don’t look back
don’t look back
don’t look back

(bridge)
the focus on the present
knowing that’s the right way to be
but my grief arises from soul
overcomes me yet again
and again and again

don’t look back
is my refrain
don’t look back
the past is receding fast
history can’t be changed
believe me I’ve tried
don’t look back
don’t look back
don’t look back

‘Hand of Fate’ –#lyrics to a #pop #rock song

Hand of Fate
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

don’t know what to say
much to my dismay
we all get it in the end
all we can do is smile
knowing how it all ends is in
the hand of fate

hand of fate is what I’m saying
it’s all around us in control
hand of fate is what I knowing
it throws us into the sky
when our time on earth passes on by
hand of fate
hand of fate
hand of fate

we’re here for a good time
not for a long time
we can’t fight the hand of fate
all we can do is strike a match
to illuminate the truth

hand of fate is what I’m saying
it’s all around us in control
hand of fate is what I knowing
it throws us into the sky
when our time on earth passes on by
hand of fate
hand of fate
hand of fate

(bridge)
our destiony isn’t set
I want to believe it’s true
is it possibly that I control
how it all ends
I fear that’s a lie
the hand of fate is too strong

hand of fate is what I’m saying
it’s all around us in control
hand of fate is what I knowing
it throws us into the sky
when our time on earth passes on by
hand of fate
hand of fate
hand of fate

‘End Of The Beginning’ #Lyrics to a #pop #rock song

End Of The Beginning
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

don’t know the future it’s true
but the way you look at me
makes me think I know
where this is all going to go
we may not be lovers yet

but this is
the end of the beginning
the end of the beginning
the end of the beginning

a touch from your finger tips
a glance of you on a date
is all I need to seal our fate
our love is new but it is strong
the look on your face ends all debate

what we face is the
the end of the beginning
the end of the beginning
the end of the beginning

(bridge)
I can’t tell the future it’s true
but what can I do but hope
that we’re going to last
maybe start a little family of our own
make plans we forget
have pain and passion that comes and goes
with the roar of something more

the end of the beginning
the end of the beginning
the end of the beginning

‘Hold’ – #lyrics to a #Rock song

Hold
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

the center will not hold
the center will not hold
the center will not hold

chaos in the streets
lust between the sheets
Helter Skelter on the radio
telling me everything’s about to blow
hold you tight with all my might
you’re my truth, my guiding light
as the center falls

the center will not hold
look out below
the center will not hold
everything is coming to an end
the center will not hold
’cause we don’t care enough
about the truth it is foretold

wars and rumors of war
rush towards us like a thief in the night
we embrace the lie deny the truth
what else can we do
but dig a hole to hell
hoping to find heaven there

the center will not hold
look out below
the center will not hold
everything is coming to an end
the center will not hold
’cause we don’t care enough
about the truth it is foretold

(bridge)
in simpler times
the center was secure
we all knew what to do
now chaos is all around
we can barely stand our ground

the center will not hold
look out below
the center will not hold
everything is coming to an end
the center will not hold
’cause we don’t care enough
about the truth it is foretold

the center will not hold
the center will not hold
the center will not hold

‘Wait Till The End’ — #lyrics to a #pop #rock song

Wait Till The End
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

I adore you more than most
but you’re not just a ghost
won’t bore you with the details
the details are to sad to recall
my life isn’t over yet
let’s wait till the end

wait till the end
then will know how the truth
wait till the end
did it all work out
or was it all just shouting
cause by too much doubt

people tell me it’s over
that I should move on
mooning over you is a waist
that I need to face the truth
but I’m still waiting for you
waiting till the end

wait till the end
then will know how the truth
wait till the end
did it all work out
or was it all just shouting
cause by too much doubt

(bridge)
beginnings are meant to end
give me a head start
maybe I can dart around you
like a fish
and you’ll give me a kiss

wait till the end
then will know how the truth
wait till the end
did it all work out
or was it all just shouting
cause by too much doubt

‘One More Sip’ — #lyrics to a #country #music #song

One More Sip
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

run my hands through my hair
mull my tab in my mind
wondering how drunk to get
to make everything feel sublime
all I know is I can’t drink you away
much to my dismay

one more sip of my beer
one more tear on my cheek
one more regret to have
our time is no more
I admit with a sigh

the bartender points at the clock
tells me no more roll in my rock
it used to be so much different
when you were by my side
let me slide my hand up your thigh

one more sip of my beer
one more tear on my cheek
one more regret to have
our time is no more
I admit with a sigh

(bridge)
living in the present
is what I should do
but then I want to call you
hoping you’ll pick up with love
then reality hits
and I have another sip

one more sip of my beer
one more tear on my cheek
one more regret to have
our time is no more
I admit with a sigh

‘Late Night Love Story’ — #lyrics to an R&B #ballad

Late Night Love Story
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

bodies intertwined late at night
we’re working overtime
during the overnight shift
the smell of our sweat fills the air
each move is another dare

do you have it in you
to give me all your love
do you have it in your heart
to write this story’s climax

let’s flip the script
you start from the bottom
work your way to a stop
we’re just in the first act
things can only get better
if we work together

do you have it in you
to give me all your love
do you have it in your heart
to write this story’s climax

(bridge)
no writer’s block
all we hear is the clock
go tick-tock-tick-tock
when this is over
we’ll want a squel

do you have it in you
to give me all your love
do you have it in your heart
to write this story’s climax

‘Harmless’ #lyrics to a #pop #rock song

Harmless
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
please give credit if you produce or perform

please don’t complain
is my refrain
I may get drunk and rant
but in the end
there’s nothing there
I’m as harmless as can be
I promise, I swear to thee

I’m harmless I swear
no need to sweat
I’m harmless I swear
wouldn’t hurt anyone
even on a dare
I’m harmless I swear
I’m harmless I swear

I’m a round peg in a square hole
should be quite about my fate
but I’m on a roll
people may grow alarmed
call me a freak for a spell
but let me assure you
I’m just a harmless fool

I’m harmless I swear
no need to sweat
I’m harmless I swear
wouldn’t hurt anyone
even on a dare
I’m harmless I swear
I’m harmless I swear

(bridge)
if I was dangerous
you could stare and point
but I’m not that type of guy
just sometimes drink too much
and want to front

I’m harmless I swear
no need to sweat
I’m harmless I swear
wouldn’t hurt anyone
even on a dare
I’m harmless I swear
I’m harmless I swear
