IT'S TRUE by K. Dennis
I'm sitting here thinking
How to put the words in just the right way
Avoiding stock phrases
Like "love walked in, and saved the day!"
But it's true
I'd be lost without you
It's true
I'd be lost without you
Saw some little kids playing
And I felt that old hurt, and I wanted to cry
Then I saw your face smiling
Sayin' "Yes it's tough and I'm by your side"
Well it's true
I'd be lost without you
It's true
I'd be lost without you
After years in the dark, the sun's breaking through
You light up my life like a bolt from the blue
It's so easy to stoop to cliche
But I can't say "I love you" in near enough ways
I'm sitting here thinking
How to arrange the words in just the right way
Give weight to their meaning
But actions speak louder than a million words a day
Well it's true
I'd be lost without you
It's true
I'd be lost without you

THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO by K. Dennis
She's been carrying this weight around for far too long
Said now's the time to set it down
She's been carrying this weight around for far too long
Gonna deal with the devil head on
The time was right, the stars aligned
See the power rising in her eye
She don't talk, she walks the walk
The girl with the dragon tattoo
She's been carrying this weight around for far too long
Said now's the time to hand it off
She's been carrying this weight around for far too long
Gonna wrestle with the devil he's not so tough
The time was right, the stars aligned
See the power rising in her eye
She don't talk, she walks the walk
The girl with the dragon tattoo
Make no mistake
She'll take you
The girl with the dragon tattoo

ELECTRIC FENCE by K. Dennis
Well that guy told me, and that guy showed me
Still I just had to grab her electric fence
An educational experience
Taking hold of her electric fence
They said she'll knock you away
I'll take that chance today
Man, that woman sparked like an electric fence
A hair-raising experience
Caught up in her electric fence
A hundred thousand volts protecting her heart
Wind-powered, coal-fired, what else have you got?
Live wires are ready to deliver anytime
Concentrated lightning anytime you touch the line
Well I learned my lessons, and I've got the scars
Here comes another fool, you didn't have to look far
You know he's gonna try and cross her electric fence
An unsettling experience
Taking hold of her electric fence
Electric fence

I DON'T GET IT by K. Dennis
I don't get it
People hurt people everyday in a hundred thousand ways
Since time began it's still predator and prey
I don't get it
I don't get it
I've lashed out even though I knew that it was wrong
It's a secret switch that cuts the lights and turns the dark on
I don't get it
No surprise sometimes we go crazy
Living in a world of fear makes us feel empty
On New Year's Eve I'm sitting here being resolute
Looking for the truth
I don't get it
As far as I know we only get the chance to go around once
It's such a beautiful world why do we try so hard to mess it up?
I don't get it
No surprise sometimes we go a little crazy
Living in a world of fear makes us all feel empty
On New Year's Eve I'm sitting here very resolute
Looking for the truth
I don't get it

PRISON SONG by K. Dennis
Sittin' here watching the clouds roll by
Through the spaces between the bars
Rollin' wherever they want to today
They're free like the wind and the stars
A flash of anger counted for more
Than the years hangin' in when the craziness hit
Sentenced to solitary no set term
The jailers hit me right where it hurt
They took away the future that gave me hope
The life that gave me life
I'll try to forgive and I won't forget
The ones who were cruel
If I sit here long enough more clouds will come by
Driftin' slow into my point of view
And that's how I spend most of my days
The nights turn deep deep blue
They took away the future that gave me hope
The life that gave me life
I know I'll forgive and I won't forget
The ones who were cruel
And the ones who were kind
I'll remember the ones who were kind
Sittin' here watching the clouds roll by
Through the spaces between the bars
Rollin' wherever they want to today
They're free like the wind and the stars
They're free like the wind and the stars
Remember the ones who were cruel
Remember the ones who were kind

BREAKING AND ENTERING by A. Bergey/K.Dennis
She's got a crime in mind
She won't let on
She's got a plan in hand
When I am gone
Breaking and entering
My heart is on her string
She can't help it, it's her habit
When I'm not there, she will grab it
I'm elsewhere and absent-minded
Leave my heart where she could find it
She will take it, it's a steal
She has found out where I feel
She's got a scheme from dreams
A second try
There's a part on my heart
Where she can pry
Breaking and entering
My heart is on her string

GHOSTS HAUNT THIS HIGHWAY by K. Dennis
Drivin' this road for thirty-five years
Riders come and gone along the way
One night a lost memory climbed aboard
The past would not be kept away
Ghosts haunt this highway
Can't make them disappear
Ghosts haunt this highway
In the rear view mirror
Ghosts haunt this highway
It's too close when they appear
A cross standin' lonely on the side of the road
Markin' the end of someone's days
Flashes in the headlights stark and white
The past begins to hold sway
Ghosts haunt this highway
Unsafe at any speed
Ghosts haunt this highway
Sittin' in the seat next to me
Ghosts haunt this highway
It's too close when they appear...
