Lyrics:

INNOCENCE By Jose Diaz 9-22-04 Well I remember as a little boy, my Christmases were full of toys Thanksgiving days were full of grace, sleep was good because I felt safe She remembers when there were no toys, what little there was just didn’t fill the void Mom and dad would fight, all night, what made her strong was her hard life We all know what went wrong, now the innocence is gone I remember sermons I slept thru, in my Grandmas’ arms it all rang true The pastors voice and all that he said, spun dreams inside of this little boys head She remembers all the good and bad, always saving mom from dear old dad They were proud to be a family then, though it blew apart straight into the wind We all know what went wrong, now the innocence is gone The past is there if you want to look back, but if you look too hard it can be a trap You can see how bad the cards were stacked, if youd’ve known it then youd’ve changed your act The future calls but who will make it there, cause life is easy or unfair Have faith in God let him lead you on, when it’s time to go he will call you home We all know what went wrong, now the innocence is gone (All words and music written and performed by Jose’ Luis Diaz)

Lyrics:

YOU MAKE ME FEEL YOUNG By: Jose’ Luis Diaz (V-1) We were half a world apart, When we were born, yeah nineteen-sixty-five, had only just begun (V-2) By the summer of our lives, we still had not met, we may have passed in high-school halls, it wasn’t our time yet, we were becoming, who we are today, never slowing down, through those leaps and bounds (PRE-CHORUS-1) If you measure life in seasons, we all start in the spring, summer gets us through our teens, in fall we loose some steam, winters’ when we reminisce, on seasons in the past, and finally we realize, that life’s not meant to last (CHORUS) But you make me feel young As if I’ve become A teenager once again You make me feel young You make me feel young These winter years are so much fun With you it’s always summertime You make me feel young (V-3) Here we are late in fall, winter soon begins, I wouldn’t trade these years with you, for anywhere or any when (PRE-CHORUS-2) But, if you measure life in seasons, we all start in the springtime, summer gets us through our teens, in fall we loose some steam, winters when we reminisce, on seasons in the past, and finally we realize, that lifes not meant to last (CHORUS HERE) (GUITAR LEAD) You make me feel young, you make me feel young, you make me feel young, you make me feel young ALL WORDS AND MUSIC WRITTEN AND ARRANGED BY: Jose’ Luis Diaz

Lyrics:

THE SQUARE ROOT OF LOVE By: Jose’ Luis Diaz (CHORUS) If I never see you again, it will be too soon, when what we had burned down, I nearly died in the fumes And infinity, ain’t long enough to see, That the square root of love is, you were never good to me (V-1) You won’t listen now, you just don’t know how Your just wasted time, and a waste of a mind You’ll never grow up, and you ain’t so tuff I’ve heard what you do, but I always knew And (CHORUS HERE) (V-2) Here we are, after coming so far We got through so much, with no special touch So many years, so many tears You gave up, you gave up And (CHORUS HERE) (V-3) Way back then, well that was sin We were young, and oh so dumb We gave in, we gave in Blood!, and sweat!, for these regrets (CHORUS-2) And if I never see you again, it will be too soon, when what we had burned down, I nearly died in the flames! And infinity, aint long enough to see, that the square root of love is, you were never there for me ALL WORDS AND MUSIC WRITTEN AND ARRANGED BY: Jose’ Luis Diaz

Bottoming Out-11:18

(Jose' Luis Diaz)
June 23, 2012
 

Story:

This is by no means the deepest I can go into religon. I'm a southern baptist at heart who hope God will forgive him for straying so far away from church. But, I'll always remember where I came from.

Lyrics:

BOTTOMING OUT? 8/12/04 6:39P.M. Jose’ Diaz (V-1) Now I wake up every morning, Peel myself right out of bed And halfway thru my working day, I’m wishing I was dead I pray to God to take me, I feel I must move on I hear his voice inside, He tells me that I’m wrong Not everyone’s a dreamer, Not everyone’s a saint But everyone you’ll ever meet, Has got my son to thank (CHORUS-1) I’ve bottomed out a hundred times, In a lot of the things that I’ve done But I thank the Lord that I got thru, this thing that my life has become, this thing my life’s become (V-2) Now sometimes when I’m lonely, And I feel my life’s too deep I just kick back and relax, And let my problems steep I can see serenity is something that I’ll always need, Courage can play a mean guitar, and wisdom can sing the lead I’m every bit of a dreamer I’ve never been a saint And to everyone that I learned from, Well I extend my thanks (CHORUS-2) I’ve bottomed out a thousand times, In a lot of the things that I’ve done I know the lord will get me thru , this thing that thing my life has become, this thing my life has become (V-3) I wont be the next one, To catch the devils train I wont be the next one, I swear upon my name I wont be the next one,Yeah suicide is lame (lead) (CHORUS-2 HERE) (LEAD) Don’t you dare go out that way! (lead) We love you all!, Come on!, Can you feel the Son?! (fade out long) ALL WORDS AND MUSIC WRITTEN AND ARRANGED BY: Jose’ Luis Diaz

Lyrics:

NOBODY WINS By: Jose’ Luis Diaz (V-1) I drug myself one-hundred miles back home, I thought she’d still be there but she was gone The skies were still on fire, I abandoned my desires, and cried I made contact with generals underground, they said there was no way I could come down My mind was so unclear, and my metal boot were full, of tears (CHORUS) Some one stands alone again Though the war is over Nobody wins (V-2) The snow fell from the sky like cotton balls, the temperature went way past freezing all The east and west were one, I looked, but couldn’t find the sun (CHORUS HERE) (V-3) When the sun returned it brought the rain, my life support was next to fully drained On a lonely hill I stood, I was frozen there, for good (CHORUS-HERE) (LEAD) Nobody wins, nobody wins, nobody wins (All wind effects and whistles are performed vocally by: Jose’ Luis Diaz) ALL WORDS AND MUSIC WRITTEN AND ARRANGED BY: Jose’ Luis Diaz
