Rise Chicken
(Case)
Why are you petrified of everything you see?
No ones given you a reason
To hide out and flee the scene
Your intuition tells you danger is close
So run and hide before your neck is exposed
I could be paranoid
I wouldn't be surprised
They say the truth will set you free
But, that itself might be a lie
I am no stranger to expressing my mind
And the results are less than stellar at times
The rapid fall will have me cursing the climb
(But, still I)
RISE! RISE!
Beat me down again so I can get back up!
(I've got to)
RISE! RISE!
Is that all you've got? I haven't had enough
(I'll always)
RISE! RISE!
I'll be back inside the fight
Until the day I lose my life
So, rise up chicken and take flight
Down deep within myself I struggle to maintain
Between my fast as lightning heart
And common sense within my brain
You don't always have time to think and then act
I trust my instincts and then try to adapt
You're bound to face regrets when you live like that
(But, still I)
RISE! RISE!
Beat me down again so I can get back up!
(I've got to)
RISE! RISE!
Is that all you've got? I haven't had enough
(I'll always)
RISE! RISE!
I'll be back inside the fight
Until the day I lose my life
So, rise up chicken and take flight

The End of It

The End of It
(Case)
Woke up bright and early.
Woke up with a smile.
Focused and wise, and I was kinda surprised
because it's really not my style.
But, these things can't last long.
Nothing ever does.
I feel pretty sweet, but if you give it a week
then I'll be back down in the dumps.
You can try your hand or try my patience.
Either way, no one is gonna benefit.
There's no point in idle conversation.
There's no time 'cause we have reached the end of it.
Careful what you wish for.
It is good advice.
What you will get might leave you drowning in debt
because it all comes at a price.
Don't jump in the water
when the pool's been drained
or you'll be stuck before you know you messed up,
You're on a one way trip to pain.
You can try your hand or try my patience.
Either way, no one is gonna benefit.
There's no point in idle conversation.
There's no time 'cause we have reached the end of it.
Woke up late and groggy.
Woke up in denial.
In under a week, I have accepted defeat
but, it won't sink in for a while.
If I blame somebody,
it would be myself.
Repeat all the steps, and my track record is kept.
I didn't even need your help.
You can try your hand or try my patience.
Either way, no one is gonna benefit.
There's no point in idle conversation.
There's no time 'cause we have reached the end of it.
We have reached the end of it.

Not Named
(Case)
I may be cynical
But, sometimes I'm right
Even if I could explain
This is a time
When I would choose to refrain
We all face difficult
Times in our life
And I'm not here to complain
Really, I'm not
This isn't all that much pain
I don't want to talk
I'll get it out in my own way
Sorry for being so vague
But, there's things that I can not disclose at this time
I need to clear up my head
And, I'm sure I'll be fine
And if I can show some restraint
I'll start again
Just like a fresh coat of paint
I won't pretend
That this is easy
It ain't
This is so typical
This is my type
Speeding ahead like a train
With no engineer
It's gonna all end in flames
And if you didn't know
Now maybe you might
This isn't meant as a game
It's not my intent
To cause more sadness or strain
Don't look for a hint
The cause of my sorrow's not named
Sorry for being so vague
But, there's things that I can not disclose at this time
I need to clear up my head
And, I'm sure I'll be fine
This isn't meant as a game
It's not my intent
To cause more sadness or strain
Don't look for a hint
The cause of my sorrow's not named
Don't look for hints
It's not named
I may be cynical
But, sometimes I'm right

Incidentally
(Case)
Incidentally I was busy blaming you
For all the things that had gone wrong
And yet, I knew it wasn't true
I had to see that I was pissed off at myself
I bet too much and lost my shirt on a single hand that I was dealt
I APOLOGIZE
DESPITE HOW HARD I TRY
IN THE END, I AM "THAT GUY"
I KNOW
I SUCK
I AM
PHYSICALLY, MENTALLY STUCK
Incidentally, by the time I worked things out
Well, it was far too late to fix it all and overcome the doubt
And if I ever wore an "S" upon my chest
In my case it stands for "Stupid", I created one more mess
I APOLOGIZE
DESPITE HOW HARD I TRY
IN THE END, I AM "THAT GUY"
I KNOW
I SUCK
I AM
PHYSICALLY, MENTALLY STUCK
(Solo)
I APOLOGIZE
DESPITE HOW HARD I TRY
IN THE END, I AM "THAT GUY"
I KNOW
I SUCK
I AM
PHYSICALLY, MENTALLY STUCK

Glenn Case
Handful and a Half
(Case)
I know that I'm a mess
In case you haven't guessed
Or figured it out
Here's my foot
Here's my mouth
And you latch on to me
Despite my honesty
You say you're in love
Well, you must be tough
Cause I am a handful and a half
But you just laugh
You know me and yet you stay here
I love you and that is sincere
I know I cause some stress
And treat you second best
At times I'm a jerk
I say words that might hurt
Despite my many flaws
When I think all is lost
You're proving me wrong
Should've known all along
'Cause I am a handful and a half
But you just laugh
You know me and yet you stay here
I love you and that is sincere
One of these days
If I make some mistakes
And you decide that this is through
I won't blame you but I'll be sad
My heart will develop a crack
But I'll understand, 'Cause I'm a handful and a half
'Cause I am a handful and a half
But you just laugh
You know me and yet you stay here
And so, if I haven't been clear
I love you and that is sincere

What is Really Going On?
(Case)
What is really going on?
Your car is in the driveway,
but you pretend that you're not home.
And even when I call your telephone,
it rings and rings 'til your machine
says "leave a message at the tone."
Tell the truth.
You want me
to leave you be.
That's just fine,
but tell me so,
and I can go.
What is really going on?
I can take a hint,
and I already would have gone
if your signals weren't so mixed.
You treat me good, then you treat me bad.
Honey, what's up with the switch?
Tell the truth.
You want me
to leave you be.
That's just fine,
but tell me so,
and I can go.
If you do decide
that you would like me at your side,
then please don't hesitate to let it be known.
I'm tired of the lies,
your mood changes all the time.
What does it take for you to throw me a bone?
(Unlike the one that I own...)
What is really going on?
Your car is in the driveway,
but you pretend that you're not home.
And even when I call your telephone,
it rings and rings 'til your machine
says "leave a message at the tone."
Tell the truth.
You want me
to leave you be.
That's just fine,
but tell me so,
and I can go.

Glenn Case Spokane, Washington
I write music.
I listen to music.
I genuinely just love
music.
I have a song available in "Rock Band" and that makes me smile.
Yeah, I'm the guy who did the soundtrack for "The New Adventures of Captain S".
I probably release too many albums, but I do attempt to find a good balance between quality and quantity.
Thank you.
