Stephen's Original Song Lyrics

Poise

Poise

 

Words by S. Rygiel

 

 You’re telling us its all noise but this is my one and only poise.  My way to relax so kick back, listen, and stay away from the worlds ax.

 

CHORUS:

 I’m sorry if I disturbed your slumber but I’ve got to have fun before he picks my number.

 

 The only way to be heard in a crowd is to be to fucking loud.  Look at me this is a quiet person who’s where he wants to be.

 

CHORUS

 

 I’ve found my love and nothings going to stop me things couldn’t be better, don’t you see.  It doesn’t matter if you like it or not cause I’m the one that on the spot.

Returning to You

Returning to you

Words by S.Rygiel

 

 

Man- Like having the sea but wanting the sky I’ve got the wings but there’s no reason to fly.

Woman- Looking into his eyes I see your smile holding him still loving you all the while.

 

CHORUS:

Woman- I talk to him yet I’m dreaming of you

I’m with her but wishing she was you.

Both- I’m Lost and my hearts Returning to you.

 

Woman- There was a time when the flame was just a flicker, when there was no sun to warm my day.

Man- I had forgotten how it felt to care for someone like I care for you.

 

CHORUS

 

Women- Let me go and if I come back to you then you know our love is true.

Man- You’ll always have a special place in my heart even if forever keeps us apart.

BrotherHood(Rygiel/Celata Jr.)
chorus-
The Brotherhood
Its what keeps us going everyday
Gets us through all the hard times
Affect one of us, you affect us all
1st verse-
We've got your back, thats what we do
after drill a beer or two
Talking things over after a rough call
Or sharing a few laughs at the fire hall
Yeah, thats just part of what we do
chorus
2nd verse-
Keeping our communities safe
We do things that others couldnt handle
Yeah were ODD,but its what we do
chorus
3rd verse-
Come after oner of us and we'll respond with force
We come from far and near to help each other out
Gettinh a brothers family through trying times is what we do.
chorus

On the other side(of the room)
To far from the truth and no closer to the lies, but you think that you know by the look in my eyes. Maybe it’s just a jealous heart but the distance seems to great and the journey to long to ever make it through the fire burning beside me. The world darkens more and more as this face cries .


CHORUS:
On the other side of the room away from reality
Things aren’t clear, you can’t really see.
Cut off from the true side of the story
At a distance from what’s inside of me.

Its not the way you wished it would be not quite what you expect it to be when your away from the action she’s never going to see the way it could be.


CHORUS

Slowly working my way out of this hole strengthening my grip as light flows into this shadowed soul. Things will never change as much as I may want them to
Sly Shy Sue
Daddys little girl shes always a lady but what daddy doesn't know is that someone's screwin'with his babby. She'll come cryin' to you to get what she wants but her act is nothin'new.

CHORUS:
She says she's your girl
as she gives your pal a whirl.

She seems to be the quite type but you can't judge a book by it's cover theres lots of fish in the sea your not her only lover. Your tryin' to prove your a man but all it'll get you is six feet deep in sand.

CHORUS

She doesn't care about you so when your all alone don't say that I didn't warn you. The girls been around the block a time or two, she shurly wasn't born yesterday to her it's all a game and she's always ready to play.
Its Christmas Time Again

It's Christmas time again

Words by S. Rygiel


     Christmas trees all decorated with lights a cold breeze outside you and cuddle next to the fire these nights.  The turkey is in the oven and the stockings are hung there’s people outside who have carols to be sung.


CHORUS:

It's getting to be that time of year,
Where the air is filled with so much cheer.
Evergreens and ornaments,
Santa Claus and eight reindeer,
Yeah, it's Christmas time again.


Dasher Dancer Prancer and Vixen bring Santa to town when the snow is stickin, Commit Cupid Donner and Blitzin pull the sleigh for its ride they all help him deliver gifts to the children inside.


CHORUS


    Traditions that stem from years of families gathered around the table everyone welcomes the baby who is nestled in the stable. Trying to find the perfect gift but it’s not about the presents it’s the time of year to help your fellow man and keep loved ones near.

Christmas Casualties

Christmas Casualties

Words by S. Rygiel

 

I’m working right now and can’t be home my wife is cooking Christmas dinner all alone.

The in-laws are fighting about who gets to carve the turkey, the fire is dying but no

one seems to see because the kids are having a cow.

 

CHORUS:

T’is the season to be jolly, wish I could smoke some of that Holly.

Now you see, it’s just another one of those Christmas Casualties

 

The tree fell over and broke all the lights now cleaning up water, glass and sap has kept me

from enjoying my long winters nap. I’d like to deck the neighbor instead of the halls we

found out she’s the one who’s been making all the crank calls.

 

CHORUS

 

Rudolph missed out house this year so Santa didn’t stop he just took a big shit while flying

over our roof top. Just another Christmas of mine, every now and then I miss that

Auld Lang Syne.

Holiday Songs
Here are some Original Lyrics for the Holidays
Sarah's Song
Sarah’s Song (Perfect Harmony)
                                                     Words with love by Stephen Rygiel

  An acoustic guitar and heavy piano play helping me to put into words what I can not say.  I love you now and will forever for the rest of our days I pray that it’s you and I together.  You’re a part of me that can never be replaced the diamond that fit in that empty space.  I opened my heart to you and you made it your own now no matter what I know I’ll never be alone. 

CHORUS:
I wasn’t me till I met you.
I’d fall for anyone that would smile at me.
I didn’t know if I was ever going to fine love.
I wasn’t me till I met you
 
There really are no words to let you know how much you mean to me but I will try to bring some together in perfect harmony.  We never know if things will turn out right but it’ll be OK as long as I can hold you tight. From Kenny in the parking lot to the Choate Chapel and tying the knot, so much more is still to come, For me you are the one.

CHORUS

You make me everything I never thought I could be, you show me a love I never though I could see.  I thought that Love had Lost Its Chance that I was never going to find romance but you showed me that there was still hope, pulled me back into reality like a life rope.
Searching (Rygiel/Thomas)

Searching  

Words by S.Rygiel
Music by M.Thomas

 

    I've been struck again there's nothing more to hide cause your voice has died.  If I follow my lost friend he'll soon lead me home.  No man can serve two masters just try to avoid the disasters.

 

CHORUS:

Searching-I've got to find the answer alone.

Searching-When the wine is in the wit is out.

Searching-For the road to lead me home

the truth is followed by doubt.

 

    I've wasted my eyes I can't taste my lies anymore.  It brings me down the river as I say my last good-by.  Finding out what I'm looking for the poison within control's you forevermore.

 

CHORUS
SOLO

    Searching-for something that will never be found.

    Searching-the memories are leaving me.

    Searching-No longer will I be around.

        Searching-I've shown you all you need to see.

Another Sticky Situation

Another Sticky Situation

Words by S.Rygiel

 

  Can’t go home tonight because once again my girl and I got in a fight, Cops got called and I got the blame now there’s a warrant with my name.  Running from the law I’ll just move to another state.

 

CHORUS:

Another Sticky Situation, I’ve given myself a bad reputation.  I’ve done this before, now no one will believe me anymore.

Ripped off my mom, stole my dads tom-tom. 

 

 This time they came down hard, shouldn’t have used her credit card. Another kid on the way but it wasn’t love, I just didn’t want to wear a glove.

 

CHORUS

 

  I’ve burnt my last bridge; I’m teetering on the edge of ridge. An application for a fresh start, but wait what was my last arrest date.

 

SOLO

 

CHORUS

 

  I can’t bullshit the bull shitters times like these I wish I could call in a pinch hitter.  Opps I did it again went and lost another friend, but JD and me will be tight till the end.

 
#2513

My Way or No Way(#2513)

Words by:  S.Rygiel

 

 

 

Freedom to choose is not an option in this case just listen to the words that are coming out of my face.  If you can’t understand I’ll spell it out for you I’m in control and I say what we do.

 

CHORUS:

There’s two ways to do this so don’t argue with me, open your eyes and you will see that it’s my way or no way.

 

 

I don’t mean to be a dick but I’m looking out for number one there’s no trick to this if you like it then I’m sorry son.  I’m the Boss the ball is in my court like I said I’m the last resort.

 

CHORUS

 

This time were playing by my rules because if not your just going to lose.  I know you don’t see it now but you will in the end, these rules don’t bend.  Your wasting your time discussing it because to tell you the truth… I don’t give a shit.

 

SOLO

Yours Truly

YOURS TRULY

Words by S.Rygiel

 

A small reminder that I'll always be there for you and that I haven't forgotten all that you've done.  Hand delivered with care because I remembered to let you know that you'll always  be the only one.

 

CHORUS:

I know that it's late but I needed to hear your soft voice.  It reassure's me that you'll always love yours truly.

 

Just a little note to tell you that your on my mind atleast someone is thinking of you.  Maybe I'm crazy to think I missed out on something still being alone is better then nothing.

 

CHORUS

 

Your feelings aren't mutual but puppy dog’s need attention too.  I don't mean to sound selfish but has it hit you yet that you fuckin' forgot about me.  I wonder if you'll always love yours truly.

 

 

Social Gathering

SOCIAL GATHERING

Words by S.Rygiel

 

The guy behind me is ready to explode he says "I've been hear to long and the scenery is growing old." how much longer will this take grow up and live with it for heaven's sake.

 

CHORUS:

This isn't a social gathering

I didn't wana come,but I don't wana go.

This isn't a social gathering

I'm hear for a reason,why me I don't know.

 

Cry all you want it'll get you no where you pain in the ass do you think I really care.  There's no way out not an exit anywhere you mean I'm stuck here with out a dought.

 

CHORUS

 

   "Life's what you make of it" I said don't you see this may mean nothing to you still it mean's a lot to me.  Your some where You'd rather not be but I could get used to this if you could get used to me.

Clearing things up

Clearing things up

 

Words by S.Rygiel

 

You told me you loved me now I realize I have no feelings for you, I finally get what I want but it’s not what I need. There no such thing as a soul mate only someone willing to tolerate.

 

CHORUS:

 In case I didn’t tell you my life sucks this should clear things up. I had writers block but this waste they call living broke open that lock.

 

Every girl I care about falls for my best friend but isn’t it better to know now then in the end. Putting my problems aside is like committing suicide and I cant do that anymore so I’m telling you the score.

 

CHORUS

 

From nine to five I busy my balls and the cash I take home is really nothing at all. Room for advancement is tighter then a virgins hole each step up the ladder gives my boss some new lunchtime chatter.

Plunge (Rygiel/Thomas/Seger)

PLUNGE

Words by S.Rygiel

Music by Rygiel/Thomas/Seger

 

Three, Two, One, Fire-

Hurled into the air caught by a thrashing net

the leap of faith you beware your life will end yet.

 

CHORUS:

Kickin your @ss off the stage

into the crowd you'll lung.

yellin and screamin in terror and rage

Plunge.

 

The beginnings not the end your immortal till you die

Jumpers aimed at your head and falling from the sky.

 

CHORUS

 

Completely out of control now your gana loose your soul

enjoy it while it lasts the high goes by fast when your in the hole.

CHORUS

 

Now it's time to sink or swim fear's to defeat

below heaven but above hell your wings are elet.

Burnt Bridges

Burnt Bridges

words by S.Rygiel

 

Braking away from what has always been there giving up the chance to get anywhere. You lit the match and now all you can do is watch it burn but you keep throwing more wood on the fire it looks like you’ll never learn.

CHORUS:
Cutting off your connection giving up your chance for redemption you don’t think you’ll
need them anymore but sooner or later your ass is going to hit the floor.

The Shit’s hit the fan and come back at you but this time it cant be cleaned you’ve lost all the control you once had isn’t life a bitch when there’s nothing you can do. Spinning out of control what goes up must come down, you just keep digging yourself deeper and deeper into the hole.

CHORUS

Your life sucks and its about to get worse you keep telling the same story but I’ve already heard that verse. You fucked up more then you know the doors over there so just turn around and go.

Leach

Leach

Words by S.Rygiel

 

 

That which does not kill me only makes me stronger I thought I needed you to survive but this is true no longer. A black dot on my life you ended up being the tarnish I wiped off the stainless steel knife.

CHORUS:
Everyone needs something from someone to survive it was from you I used to thrive. There’s other people and other friends, so It wont be me that’s alone in the end.

I wanted to be like you in every way, I wished more and more for what you have everyday. Now I realize I was totally wrong, your life is a completely different song. You think you’ve done damage but I’ve learned to manage Ill get by with out you now because I’ve learned to love myself that’s how.

CHORUS

You hoped Id crumble like the twin towers because you wanted to feel your influence had power. But what you don’t see is what was there in the start, there was a time I made it without you I’m my own flashlight in the dark.

Dont **** on my Cornflakes (Rygiel/Thomas/Seger)

Dont Piss on my Cornflakes

Words by S.Rygiel

Music by M.Thomas, S.Rygiel, & W.seger

It's better to be pissed off then to be pissed on and half a loaf is better than none. But who really gives shit about it anyway as long as you don't ruin my day.

CHORUS:
Don't piss on my cornflakes
life's just to tough.
Don't piss on my cornflakes
that's just about enough.
Outa you.

This life is the pits but if my cookie crumbles I'll just bake another batch real soon. I don't wana be like everyone else on the street cause I'm my own flake.

CHORUS

I don't understand cause your a few short of a six pack. You got the right string but the wrong yo-yo.

Sight Unseen

Sight Unseen

Ooo, I can't wait another day.
Ooo, just say you want me too
Ooo, just say you'll be my baby.

CHORUS:
I hear you on the line and your soundin' mighty fine.
I don't know how you look but I'm thinkin' 'bout makin' you mine.

BRIDGE
CHORUS

Everyone's gota take a chance and it's time to get out there and learn how to dance. We may trip or we may fall but if we don't take it all we'll loose this romance.


Scratch this itch
Scratch this itch
Words by S.Rygiel 
 
 
 To long without it can make a man crazy if to much time goes by my fingers will get lazy. I don’t want to get writers block so Ill sing a song for you to pop that lock.
 
CHORUS:
  I gotta scratch this itch with a plastic guitar pick write a song to hear you sing it back to me then you will see.  Some say I’m sick but if its to long between the bent strings cry just put me away there’s no point in living another day.
 
Stale beer and a ringing ear may not be your piece of pie but with out it I might as well turn over and die.  Amps stacked up to heaven like a stairway bring back the greats for one more day.
 
CHORUS
 
Calluses on my fingers and the sound of audience singers make me smile.  Jamming up on stage is the only way I know of to calm this rage.
Night Light (Rygiel/Thomas)

Night Light

words by S.rygiel

Music by M.Thomas

 

Searching in the dark I'm lost without your touch the day comes but the sun never shines. It's a dream yet the candle grows so small I need the net of your love to ceach me when I fall.

There's nothing wrong with being alone as long as your in good company I was wrong to think you'd love me. You took the pictures off the wall now I hope the dream don't fall, it won't fall.

CHORUS:
Clouds block the moon from sight but when I'm with you girl it's nothing but a stary night. So turn, turn on your night light. Just turn, turn on your night light. Oh turn, turn on your night light for me.

SOLO

Your the light at the end of my tunnel your the rose among the weeds. That same old bird that sings that same adord song the corner stone that keeps me strong, Now I hope that we can be one, we can be one.

CHORUS

Love's Lost its Chance (Rygiel/Hinckley)

Love's Lost its Chance

Words by S. Rygiel & C. Hinckley

Music by C.Hinckley

 

  Watching you all night I could have sworn it was right but I was to scared that I’d be
wrong I cant count the days since my heart has felt this way, haven’t been in love for so long.

CHORUS:
Love, Love’s lost its chance, Just missed romance. Oh whoa, whoa.
And I, I’ll take the blame, I didn’t even ask your name. Oh whoa, whoa.

What did I have to lose nothing except you, no one can know what I’m going through.
All I am is lonely just dreaming you would hold me, but some whishes don’t come true.

CHORUS

Wasting times how you end up lonely, you only live once so give it a try.
If you think you found your one and only, don’t let go yeah hold on tight. Yeah

CHORUS

No it’s running through my head all the things I could have said but the answer’s gana stay the same. Just give me the chance and I’ll ask you to dance, if you want the prize you got to play the game.

CHORUS

Anything Together

Anything together

 

Words by S. Rygiel 

 

 

 

If life gives us lemons we can make lemonade, when the sun is hot we will be each others shade.  Rough times and short changed are no problem with you next to me we can get through them, I know when I trip and fall you’ll be there to pick me up again.

 

CHORUS:

Side by side we can handle this ride.  We will make it to forever because with you I know we can do anything together.

 

When you’re sad I’ll write you a love song in the cold of winter I’ll build you a fire, when you lose the will to go on I will be your desire.  Some times things can be rough but together we can be tough.

 

CHORUS

 

There is no power stronger then love, especially one sent from above.  If the ship goes down you’ll be the one I save it all begins and ends the same, with an “I Love You Babe!”


Sarahtonin

Sarahtonin 

Words by S.Rygiel


    Like fresh popped popcorn, when I’m with her I feel air born.  She’s better then any drug, she takes me higher.  The rush she gives me is one I love to acquire.

 

CHORUS:

    Like a newborn baby, she makes me feel good within

    She makes me happy, she’s my serotonin

 

    An all around good feeling when I’m with her she’s the woman that I prefer.  Like Oxygen to a fire she is my one desire.  Like a bottle of good wine, she’s perfectly divine.

CHORUS 

    She gives me a rush like nothing else can, I absolutely love just being her man.  She makes me want to sing, that’s why I gave her a wedding ring, When I see her I begin to flow Sarahtonin.
