Unfriend Me
Written by Serene Dominic
Once before you could love someone and not need to be sure
Because, you were young and green and even if she was the one
There was always someone new for you
Those days are gone
I need certainty that you won't unfriend me
Unfriend Me! if you believe that heaven's no better above
Unfriend Me! if you can't see us happy together in love
Unfriend Me! Unfriend Me!
How I rage when your friends chime in on your new status change
Remarks go from happy face emoticons to shock and awe
That you let something so wrong go on so long
So stop.
Topic trending now is how you'll unfriend me
Unfriend Me! if you believe that heaven's no better above
Unfriend Me! if you can't see us happy together in love
Unfriend Me! Unfriend Me!

Independent Thought
Words and Music by Serene Dominic
Well my eyes well up when the music's sad
Then I'm never quite sure if the movie's bad
But
I'm conditioned to run when I feel boxed in
Like a voodoo doll at the head of a pin
Coz it's been so long since I felt in love
And it's been so long since I was guilty of
Some in-dependent thought

My Secret life
Neighbors want to know
"where is that girl? Where did she go?"
The black cloud on our street
It's all his fault. When will it leave?"
My Secret life
Neighbors want to know
"where is that girl? Where did she go?"
The black cloud on our street
It's all his fault. When will it leave?"
Why you wanna spy?
Let me live my secret life?
Why you gotta spy?
Let me live my secret life
I was unaware
They counted on the love we shared
Their golden girl's gone
What hope is there if I'm moved on
Curtains drawn and I pull down the blinds
Who needs sun when I found piece of mind
All my yesterdays I left behind
I gotta gotta gotta go
Make my way back home
Back to the house where I was born
Away from all this grief
I say I'm fine they don't believe
Why you wanna spy?
Let me live my secret life?
Why you gotta spy?
Let me live my secret life
Wht you gonna spy?
To watch me cry? Watch me cry? Watch me cry!

Maintenance
words and music by Serene Dominic
No ones looking forward to the future
Like they used to yesterday
There's no wonder in the world of tomorrow
It's in my mirror each morn i wake
Fix you up 20 days to a better you
Build your hopes up you're on the threshold of a breakthrough
But after 40 it's only maintenance
Jim Cherry said at best it's maintenance
Used to live on our imaginations
After the war, before TV
See the boy with the coonskin cap pointing his telescope at me
Win the world over win the world you're grandfathered in
Tell him start running now
I've seen every place he's been
But after 40 it's only maintenance
Jim Cherry said at best it's maintenance
I need divine intervention to reverse my fate
Steamroller me into salvation, slide me under heaven's gate...

Tight Wad
written by Serene Dominic
I work till i drop
Pally, I never stop
Call me a Tight Wad
Call me a Tight Wad
But I won’t let go
Every dollar that I got
I got by working long and hard
Call me a Tight Wad
Call me a Tight Wad
But I won’t let go
Ever since the day that she went away
I’ve been hording dollars and dimes
I don’t have a dream, I don’t ever sleep
Burning my candle at all times
Haven’t bought a thing in weeks
Open my wallet it squeaks
Call me a Tight Wad
Call me a Tight Wad
But I won’t let go
No No No No No!
guitar solo
I don’t get ahead, I barely make a dent
She put me so far into the red
I measure up her worth in what she’s cost in hurt
I’ll never be that loose again
Every dollar that I got
I got by working long and hard
Call me a Tight Wad
Call me a Tight Wad
But I won’t let go
No No No No No!
second guitar solo starts till fade

Lie About the World

When my faith in humankind is null and void
I regress back to a time that I destroyed
A time when all my energies were fired by a girl
Who made me glad I never had to lie about the world
Now my days are dark as dungeons I pre-tend
Today's the day I'll meet her on the street a-gain
We'll laugh and pick up where we left off That's the way we were
We never had to lie about the world
've been tried a hundred times
To thine own self be true
'Cept when I'm by thineself
I don't know what to do
Believe the people saying true love can't be found
And that nobody loves you when you're out and down
God grant me the serenity to stand beside of her
We'll never have to lie about the world
We'll never have to lie about the world

Music by Serene Dominic, Lyrics by Ed Masley
I recall the first time that I saw you
You had your head held up so high
Now after all the pain you’ve gone through
I still ain’t never see you cry
Oh but strength was always your Weakness, oh-oh
Give us all a break, let us see you ache no no
Somebody somewhere must have hurt you
Somebody really messed up your mind
You don't like talking about your virtue
You think you left it far behind
But strength was always your Weakness, oh-oh
Ain't no body goinna get the best of you , the rest of you
A little tremble in your upper lip
Ain’t gonna sink no ship
Let it slip away.
A little tremble in your lower lip
Ain;t gonna give your secrets away
As I recall, the last time that I saw you
You'd barely look me in the eye
You thought I might want to declaw you
As though I'd ever even try
Strength was always your Weakness, oh-oh
Give us all a break, let us see you ache no no
