Fate Won't Wait
03:54
|
|||
I don't own you
I don't even know you
We were once, but that was then
I got my piece out
Made my mind up
There's no point in looking back
Miles of open road ahead
Dust and fiction fill my head
There's someone stranded on highway
Hat in hand, are you going my way
Cars are passing, sun is fading fast
Fate won't wait for lovers
It won't wait for me
I have walked for miles in your shoes
You won't do the same for me
I am rolling across the desert
Clouds of anger follow me
I'll keep driving into the ocean
Let these waters swallow me
Miles of open road ahead
Dust and fiction fill my head
There's someone stranded on highway
Hat in hand, are you going my way
Cars are passing, sun is fading fast
Fate won't wait for lovers
It won't wait for me
I have walked for miles in your shoes
You won't do the same for me
You won't wait
You won't wait
You won't wait
You won't wait
You won't wait
You won't wait
You won't wait
You won't wait

The Other Shoe
04:28
|
|||
No friend of mine is an island for sale
No friend of mine is a shiny lock that fails
No friend of mine is a pair of eyes I never see
But I wait for you or me to break
What more do you want to take
And I can't move on
And it takes so long
For the other
The other shoe to drop
No friend of mine is an open book of lies
No friend of mine is a waterfall that cannot cry
But I wait for you or me to break
What more do you want to take
And I can't move on
And it takes so long
For the other
The other shoe to drop
No one wants to blink an eye
No one wants to give
No friend of mine is an avalanche waiting to fall
But I wait for you or me to break
What more do you want to take
And I can't move on
And it feels so wrong
For the other
The other shoe to drop
The other shoe to drop

Blue Revolution
05:13
|
|||
Last night I dreamed I was at school
And there was this naughty boy who'd broken all the rules, whoa-whoa
He made a nasty mess
Knocked over every desk
And then he smirked and lurked away, whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa
We'll never let it happen again
They tried to teach him how to sing
But all he ever said was Buddaboom and Buddabing, whoa-whoa
Snake oil was what he sold
The lies were manifold
And then he winked and slinked away, whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa
Stand up for a new direction
Stand up for the blue revolution
We're not gonna take this lying down, down, down
Run down to the railway station
Hop a train to a better destination
We're not gonna stop 'til we take him down, down, down
We'll never let it happen again
On the schoolyard playground he's the boss
If he doesn't get his way, he'll win at any cost, whoa-whoa
He is the bully's friend
The threats just never end
You're either with him or you lose, whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa
We'll never let it happen again
Oh no no, I think we got fooled again
Oh no no, he said we'd never get fooled again
Oh no no, looks like we got schooled again
Oh no no, looks like we got schooled
We'll never let it happen again
He made a stinky pile
And all he does is smile
And tell you it's a real treat, whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa
Stand up for a new direction
Stand up for the blue revolution
We're not gonna take this lying down, down, down
Run down to the railway station
Hop a train to a better destination
We're not gonna stop 'til we take him down, down, down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down

Solar Meltdown
04:03
|
|||
Some might say that we had it made
That we had something strong enough to last forever
And some might say that our words got in the way
But can't you hear the silence of a broken heart
Some might say I should learn to walk away
And I always look for sunshine when the rain falls down
I've had my fill and I took my poison pill
Now I'm waiting for a ransom and a solar meltdown
I'll never take it all for granted
And I'll never let you down again
You're all that I need
And I'm not afraid to bleed
If I could just be with you again
With you again
Some might say that you led me far astray
And you promised me you'd never find somebody new
Words dry up like Kool-Aid from a plastic cup
And now you won't be calling me on Friday evening
I'll never take it all for granted
And I'll never let you down again
You're all that I need
And I'm not afraid to bleed
If I could just be with you again (Be with you again)
With you again
Suddenly I'm raw in inside
On the barren sidewalks without a guide
Now I can remember what you meant to me
October days, November nights
I'm drowning in a sea of spite
I'm drinking through the holidays without a drop of sense
And some might say I'm waiting for a ghost
But now's the time I need you the most
And I still hear you laughing like you're standing next to me
I'll never take it all for granted
And I'll never let you down again
You're all that I need
And I'm not afraid to bleed
If I could just be with you again
You're all that I need
And I'm not afraid to bleed
If I could just be with you again
If I could just be with you again

All That I Am
03:59
|
|||
You don't know what I'm about
You're full of doubt
Questions just hang in the air
You don't where this will lead
Whether you'll bleed
When we reach a fork in the road
And all I can say is it won't be the first time I put my heart on the line
And it won't be the last if I can't seem to shake off the past
Take me for all that I am
Take me for all that I'm hoping to be
Tell me you won't give a damn
About all my faults
I've had my ups and my downs
My share of clowns
My past seems to follow me here
Like a house guest who won't ever leave
He sticks to my sleeve
And reminds me of all my mistakes
And all I can say, there's bound to be good times, bound to be bad times
But I won't be gone when the darkness is turning to dawn
Take me for all that I am
Take me for all that I'm hoping to be
Tell me you won't give a damn
About all my faults
All my faults
I have seen love come and go
Like a strong undertow
It pulls you down into the sea
A poker hand already played
My cards have been laid but I can't stand to lose anymore
And all I can say is I'm turning my life around, feet planted on the ground
But I need you to say you'll be with me each step of the way
Take me for all that I am
Take me for all that I'm hoping to be
And tell me you won't give a damn
About all my faults
Take me for all that I am
Take me for all that I'm trying to be
Then I'll give you all that I can
If you'll stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me

While the waters were rising up
No one bothered to fill your cup
While the levies were tumbling down
No one bothered to come around
While the houses were washed away
How many thousands did we betray
All the king's horses, all the king's men
Couldn't put you together again
All this time we're screaming at the pouring rain
All our words run dry
And all this time we're screaming at the pouring rain
People had to die
Words are easy and words are free
But they don't mean much if you can't see
The strong will live and the weak will die
Who are you now to question why
What did they do make their bed
Did you notice their blood was red
In the mirror we can't deny
It could have happened to you or I
All this time we're screaming at the pouring rain
All our words run dry
And all this time we're screaming at the pouring rain
People had to die
Dum dum da dum da
Dum dum da dum da
Dum dum da dum da
Dum dum da dum da
All this time we're screaming at the pouring rain
All our words run dry
And all this time we're screaming at the pouring rain
People had to die
All this time we're screaming at the pouring rain
All our words run dry
All this time we're screaming at the pouring rain
People had to die

On The Bus
04:16
|
|||
Every morning you get on the bus at Lake Street
And every morning you sit in the second row
You always twist your hair with that colored pencil
Never looking up 'til we get downtown
You will never know I want to meet you
You will never know that I can't breath
I'll wait another day to strike up a conversation on the bus
Yeah
I wonder what you think glancing through the window
I wonder where you go when you step outside
I know I'm going crazy with the speculation
I've got a lot to ask you but it's all tied up inside
You will never know I want to meet you
You will never know that I can't breath
I'll wait another day to strike up a conversation on the bus
Yeah
On the bus
Yeah
Would you like to see me
Oh that's all I want to say
I know it's nothing fancy
But then words get in the way
Today you missed your spot and glided down the aisle
And you dropped your hat when you passed my row
When I gave it back I thought I saw a smile
And it spoke to me more than a book of poems
You will never know I want to meet you
You will never know that I can't breath
I'll wait another day to strike up a conversation on the bus
Yeah
On the bus
Yeah
On the bus
Yeah
On the bus
On the bus
On the bus
On the bus
On the bus
(The wheels on the bus go round and round and round)
(The wheels on the bus go round and round and round)
(The wheels on the bus go round and round and round)
(The wheels on the bus go round and round and round)

Burn Me Up
03:56
|
|||
I don't know what's happened to me
I look around and you're all that I see for miles
I wake up in the middle of the night
But this bed won't ever feel right without you
Without you
Burn me up again
Nights like that I never want to end
Burn me til the flame dies down
Burn me to the bone
Tell me I will never be alone
Burn me til the flame dies down
When we met there were sparks in your eyes
I felt the heat but I never realized I'd fall for you
And I don't know what love can be
But when you lay down next to me that's all I need
That’s all I need
Burn me up again
Nights like that I never want to end
Burn me til the flame dies down
Burn me to the bone
Tell me I will never be alone
Burn me til the flame dies down
Turn me on (Turn me on, turn me on)
Tear me up (Tear me up, tear me up)
Melt me down (Melt me down, melt me down)
Burn me up (Burn me up, burn me up)
Burn me up again
Nights like that I never want to end
Burn me til the flame dies down
Burn me to the bone
Tell me I will never be alone
Burn me til the flame dies down
Burn me
Burn me up again
Burn me til the flame dies down
Burn me
Burn me up again
Burn me til the flame dies down

Fall In Love Again
03:47
|
|||
In the morning we roll out of bed
Today's grind's gonna fill our heads again
Idle chatter replaces the canyon between us
You grab keys and rush out the door
You won't say it but there's something, something more
We don't know if there's any spark left between us
Between us
I wanted to be with you night and day
I needed to know all about you
Years later we're still trying to fall in love
Fall in love
I'm blind and you're deaf and dumb
I try to say it but I'm dry and the words don't come
I've got my place and you've got your place in my life
And I remember we hiked down to the rocky shore
Our hearts were jumping, our bodies ached and our legs were sore
We didn't need any words to build a fire between us
Between us
I wanted to be with you night and day
I needed to know all about you
Years later we're still trying to fall in love
Fall in love
I wanted to be with you night and day
I needed to know all about you
Years later we're still trying to fall in love
Fall in love
I wanted to be with you night and day
I needed to know all about you
Years later we're still trying to fall in love
Fall in love
Fall in love
Still trying to fall in love again
I wanted to be with you night and day
Still trying to fall in love again

A Pretty Good Friend
03:25
|
|||
I don't know what's come over me
I found my heart pointing in the wrong direction
And it's getting the best of me
I never wanted to cross that intersection
And there's a feeling that won't gather moss
Still there's a fine, fine line I can't cross
'Cause my best friend's girl is a pretty good friend of mine
Yeah my best friend's girl is a pretty good friend of mine
Started out just so innocently
Like brother sister, we're one big happy family
Then you started to get to me
Now I can't sleep knowing you're with him instead of me
And there's a feeling that won't gather moss
Still there's a fine, fine line I can't cross
‘Cause my best friend's girl is a pretty good friend of mine
Yeah my best friend's girl is a pretty good friend of mine
Are you really in love with him
Are you gonna play both sides all the time
When push comes to shove with him
Are you gonna tell him
Are you gonna tell him
Are you gonna tell him
Love was never
Love was never
Love was never
Was never built for three
Looks like I stirred up a hornet's nest
I lost my cool, gave him more than simple words express
Now there's a warrant for my arrest
I'm running scared but I'm not the one who made this mess
And there's a feeling that won't gather moss
Still there's a fine, fine line I can't cross
‘Cause my best friend's girl is a pretty good friend of mine
(A pretty good friend)
Yeah my best friend's girl is a pretty good friend of mine
(A pretty good friend)
My best friend's girl is a pretty good friend (She used to be)
My best friend's girl is a pretty good friend (She used to be)
My best friend's girl is a pretty good friend of mine

In Your Arms
04:05
|
|||
You've got your heart in this fight tonight
And you won't let go
Through rain and sleet and snow
Whichever way the wind will blow
You say you can't forget her
Can't get inside of your head tonight
There's a wall so high
Built by fears and lies
It's just another silly alibi
It's all imagination
She'll come back to you, oh you know she will
And you'll go back to her, it never was in doubt
Your stars will find their place
It's an emptiness you can't replace
A smile will finally find your face
When she's in your arms
It all began on a drunken night
You wanna move so fast
But she's got something in her past
She's wonders how a love will last
But she won't give a reason
You shared a room and you shared your heart
But she won't let go
Something pulls her eyes down low
She left a note, she needs some time
She said she won't forget you
She'll come back to you, oh you know she will
And you'll go back to her, it never was in doubt
Your stars will find their place
It's an emptiness you can't replace
A smile will finally find your face
When she's in your arms
She called you late on a Sunday night
She said it's all my fault
My world was full of doubt
But I still want to work this out
If you could just forgive me
She'll come back to you, oh you know she will
And you'll go back to her, it never was in doubt
Your stars will find their place
It's an emptiness you can't replace
A smile will finally find your face
When she's in your arms

Losing My Mind
04:51
|
|||
What crazy, mixed up world are we living in now
Where they say down is up and up is down
And black is white when the truth is gray
And wrong is right but no one wants to say
I guess it's raining on a sunny day
I guess I'm losing my mind
No need to read, they'll tell you what you need to know
Don't worry 'bout any problem, just go with the flow
And black is white when the truth is gray
And wrong is right but no one wants to say
I guess it's raining on a sunny day
I guess I'm losing my mind
Losing my mind
Losing my mind
Losing my mind
Pay no attention to that shady deal
They'll tell you what to think and how to feel
And black is white when the truth is gray
And wrong is right but no one wants to say
I guess it's raining on a sunny day
I guess I'm losing my mind
Losing my mind
Losing my mind
Losing my mind
Losing my mind
Losing my mind
Losing my mind
Losing my mind
Losing my mind
Losing my mind
Losing my mind
Losing my mind
Losing my mind
