UNTITLED
Lyrics by Kameron, music by RedRover
Not yet released.
Did you ask my mind if it was alright to fill it up
Now it's spilling over across my shoulders cause you're too much
Won't you ask my time if it's alright to take it up
Cause my days are waiting, they're long and craving your soft hand touch
You, you were it all tonight
When I gave you a kiss goodnight
With a star on the right and your heart in the left
It took just your eyes to steal my breath
Now it's so late - you're so great
How can you ask me to stay
Bittersweet
And incomplete
In my arms
Where you should be
But you won't hear me anymore
I can see
Down your street
Twenty-three
Where you said you'd be
But I know you are never home
Away - when I just want your hand in mine
But you say - you say there's no room for new Valentines
And I'm not worth your while
You said you don't want something serious
Well since when am I serious?
THE GREAT AMERICAN SCREAM MACHINE
Lyrics by Kameron, music by RedRover
Not yet released.
It's been two summers since
I spent a lazy Sunday with you
We wanted to see the world, but that's too far
How bout a nap instead
Cross my rock n' roll heart and hope to die
That baby someday, maybe Monday
Just close your eyes
And I'll take you there
To ride the roller coasters
Where the ups and downs don't compare to ours
And all I can swear
Is to roll over my love
So I won't disturb your sleeping eyes at all
It's been five minutes since
Since you walked across my mind
And made me smile
I know this bed was warmer when
You lied beside me wondering
Why we were happy suffering
But back then I didn't understand
This place, this place is caving in
No time to waste on promises
Just close your eyes
Oh, what do I say? I say it loud
Loud enough for you to hear
And what do you see, when I take you round?
Is it everything you dreamed?
It's been five summers since
Since I met you
Cause now I know
My war is over
BREATHE
Lyrics by Kameron, music by RedRover
Not yet released.
I watch you, ever wondering
Where you go when you go away
Cause you never stay
And I want to believe
That you'll turn around
When I'm staring you down- I'm staring you down
Maybe once, maybe twice
You glanced in my direction
I don't know, is it me?
But you rarely pay attention
And I want to believe that you'll recognize me
Tomorrow- when I follow you home
And maybe you'll get away
Cause I can't think of one word to say
Sleeping lonely, dreaming of you and me
You know I'm tired, but I can't sleep this way
I can't sleep this way
You always get away
My mind whispers in your ear
From across a crowded room
Can you hear?
What I say to you
Maybe just for one night
I thought we made a connection
Now I see, I was wrong
I know exactly what you're thinking
You want to believe that this is a dream
But no, you're not alone
And maybe you'll get away
Cause I can't think of one word to say
Sleeping lonely, dreaming of you and me
You know I'm tired, but I can't sleep this way
And I know that you'll get away
When I've still got so much to say
Sleeping lonely, dreaming of you and me
You know I try, but I can't breathe this way
DREAMS
Lyrics by Jay and Kameron, music by RedRover
Not yet released.
I wanted to come over last night
Just so I could talk to you
I knew you wouldn't be home
It just wasn't the right time
Oh yeah you think that everything's my fault
Oh yeah you think you're right
I was the one who did the bad things
And now I sit here all alone
I have been a happy boy lately
When I think of all the good times
Never all that bad you say to me
Just wasn't the right time
But I've got this big resentment towards you
Dear john letters aren't that cool
That was when I needed you
But now I sit here all alone
Will you remember me on those cold and dry December nights?
And do you pretend it's me when he's kissing you, cause it's alright
I hug the stuffed and fluffy things that you've given me for all those times
I slept alone and prayed, you came and saved this sorry boy from another sleepness night
This is when I can count on your eyes
To give away what's on your mind
I can see you still think of me
I just don't know why
I have learned to fill my time
By dreaming of a life
That works out the right way
For now I sit here all alone
How bout a little understanding, that's all I'm asking
When you need anything, I'm the one you call
But now you've got me caught red-handed, and I can't stand it
You're the first to admit you knew all along
PARLIAMENT
Lyrics by Jay, John, and Kameron, music by RedRover
Not yet released.
You and me, me and you
One more parliament to get us through the night
It'll set things right
When the time, that time when
You looked into my eyes
And love was made again, tonight
I hope it's right
If I could take on the world
and show them all your smile
If only they could see
The way you look at me
K-TURN
Lyrics by Kameron, music by RedRover
Not yet released.
Bustin' out another K-turn once again
and I saw you there
standing with your friends
I imagine how you sound and what you wear to bed
and how you get your hair
To do that
So I dream away all of this
There's a reason to divide
my cowardice from consciousness
It's a dream realized
I have to give my all to this
I have to move on without you
You're still staring at me while I'm staring out the window
Nowhere to look
You're all I see
My imagination's limitations get the best of me
I don't know who you are
but you're right for me
I bet someday I'll be lost without you
And where will you be?
In your own little house with your own little kids
and your own little man who I'm sure you won't miss
And you'll smile for a while
Play it off with a kiss
Dreaming that I'll take you away from all this
I bet someday I'll be lost without you
And where will you be?
With your 2.4 kids and your Prom King
Who could never love you like me
But I'll never know. . .
SAMANTHA
Lyrics by Kameron, music by RedRover

Appears on the RedRover/DharmaBoys Split CD.
Samantha, tell me where'd you go. Where did you go wrong?
Tell me what did we do. Samantha, Samantha. What brought this on?
What happened to you?
In every town I look around, and wonder where all the punks and skaters went.
Seems like everyone cool I knew, is trading teams and turning homey.
Every now and then I think about that cute little spikey punk queen,
and I wonder why things have changed.
She thinks her new boyfriend is much cooler than me.
In everywhere, everyone I see is a hypocrite, trying too hard to be,
something they hate even more than me.
It's too bad their heads are held too high to see.
But now don't get me wrong, I got respect for those preaching unity unity unity.
I just don't understand why everyone is cooler.
Samantha, why did you leave me here? I know you know I'm right. You're brighter than this.
Samantha, why did you leave me here? I'm all alone tonight, and I miss your kiss.
Sam I know you know what I mean, just look around, it's like a dream.
I saw you staring in the mirror. You saw yourself staring back at me,
just one more time girl, what do you see?
You remembered the way we all used to be.
Samantha, tell me where'd you go. Where did you go wrong?
Tell me what did we do. Samantha, Samantha. What brought this on?
What happened to you?
Samantha, how was I to know? It's been so long,
since I've seen you. Samantha, Samantha. What's going on?
JOHNNY ALTER-EGO
Lyrics by John, music by RedRover
Appears on the Work In Progress Demo and on the RedRover/ DharmaBoys Split CD.
Poor old johnny alterego sits alone on a saturday night, remembering how things used to be.
Remembering way back when, back to a simpler time. Before everything went wrong.
He could handle anything life threw his way.
He was the one who was never gonna go down like this.
Sometimes he thinks he peaked in high school. There's gotta be a high point somewhere after all,
a place where it all starts to fall.
Apart from everything he cares about, away from all his hopes and dreams. And he used to be so strong.
And It's been so long since anything went right.
And it's been so long, the end's nowhere in sight.
And the future used to seem so bright. . .
GOING FRIDAY
Lyrics by Jay, music by Redrover
Appears on the RedRover/DharmaBoys Split CD.
Seventy-four days ago
So long it seems as though
It disappeared so quick
Tonight I feel so sick
Why do I always run away
Never enough hours in the day
A head-on crash doesn't feel as bad
As I do, tonight
Break-ups are never easy
Some may call them cheesey
But I'm not the only one
Not having any fun
Why do I always run away
Never enough hours in the day
A head-on crash doesn't feel as bad
As I do, tonight
Thanks for the memories
Thanks for the destiny (going friday)
Thanks for the happiness
Thank you for being you
EVERYDAY
Lyrics by Kameron, music by RedRover
(Special thanks to Warren MacDonald and Chris Reid)
Appears on the Work in Progess Demo and on the RedRover/DharmaBoys Split CD.
Where there's a will, there's a way
And my day may be tomorrow
I'm not dumb, but I could be drunk
Either way, yesterday still makes me cry
And so what, and so I
Won't waste my time crying over
What it used to be
I feel this way, everyday
And I pray for a tomorrow
Tomorrow never comes, and what have I got
Either way, you won't stay, in my life
And so what, and so I
Won't waste your time crying over
What we used to be
But now that I've found myself, I can't find you
So, where in the world are you tonight
(A thousand smiles away, yet I see you everyday)
Tonight, I can't find you tonight
I wake up bored everyday
And I need some fun to borrow
I'm on my own, the nights are all I've got
Maybe they'll make me stay until I die
And so what, and so I
Won't waste my life hiding under
What I used to be.
DRIVE

Let's go for a ride girl
Open up and let me in
We need a way to get there tonight
Please take me for a ride girl
Open up and let me in
I need you to get there tonight
Cause I'm not driving
I'd like to sit beside you
Maybe hold the map this time
You can be the one who takes us tonight
I never get the chance to
Sit back and enjoy the ride
I'm always trying to get you to smile
But now I'm not driving
Where will we go now?
Anywhere
Everywhere
