"Messed Up and Twisted"
Second chances. So rare, so fleeting, many times unrecognizable. When we see the opportunity, desperation sets in and all caution is thrown to the wind. This song is about one of those times.

LYRICS
Messed up and twisted don’t know what’s comin’ next
Messed up and twisted my future is just a guess
When you turned around and smiled my heart stopped for a while
Didn’t know what to say I couldn't speak anyway
I watched as you turned and walked away just a fool in daze
Messed up and twisted my heart was beating fast
Messed up and twisted had to catch up to the past
Thought that I was strong time had proved me wrong
Nothing I could do so I walked away from you
Just a fool left alone with his blues still loving you
So I decided there and then wouldn’t let you get away again
Couldn't let this opportunity pass me by
Didn't want to be a fool and miss a second chance with you
I did what I had to do so I chased after you
Messed up and twisted I need you back in my arms once more
Messed up and twisted scared and uncertain just like before
So I had to get it straight hoping that it’s not too late
Turned in your direction not contemplating rejection
I just knew I wanted you back with me for the rest of my life
You stopped to turn and look my legs trembled and my body shook
shocked that this moment has arrived
Saw the twinkle in your eyes my blood pressure started to rise
I knew right then we'd be together once more
Messed up and twisted that's just a feeling in the past
Messed up and twisted feeling great back together at last
Gone is the confusion No more bad dreams and illusions
Finally got the plan worked out makes want to jump and shout
And dance away the rest of my life with you
