More of That Life
03:27
|
|||
Well!
He ain't
holding back
Cos' there's no way
Of getting back
Hes let go
of everything
A Man
could be
He wants more Oh more of that life
Hes looking up
Towards the sun
Praying maybe
He'll win
In the end
As he falls
To the ground
Oh help him out
He wants more Oh more of that life
So there's a man
Standing by his side
With a gun
To his head
He don't know
What he is facing
Lord knows
It ain't good
He still wants more oh more of that life
Beating down
There's a light
Not too soon
It'll go out
We'll wonder
Why they fight
He pulls the trigger
Puts 2 in his head
He still wants more oh more of that life
He still wants more oh more of that life
Want a wonderful place to be reckoned with
Right here in the middle of nowhere
Want a wonderful place to be reckoned with
Right here in the middle of nowhere
He wants more Oh he wants more Of that Life
He wants more Oh he wants more Of that Life

Are You There?
03:07
|

Walking down a lonely road
Facing the great unknown
Trembling through the cold
Ambiance of what was told
Are you there?
Are you there?
Do you see me?
Can you hear me?
Do you have the time
To listen to my heartless cries
I've bent down on my knee
Begging for answers please
Are you there?
Are you there?
Do you see me?
Can you hear me?
Going places I should not go
Seeing faces I already know
I am lost to all that comforts me
My own hands can't set me free
Are you there?
Are you there?
Do you see me?
Can you hear me?

Beauty Queen
05:09
|
|||
After the sky opened
I let out a cry
For the word she had spoken
Let this foolish man die
My heart is now broken
But not a tear has shed
For where I had forgotten
These bullets were made of lead
I've seen her on these streets
She don't belong here
I've seen her lighting her ciggeratte
Tryin' to smoke up the smoke screen
I've heard her name before
I've heard she can open some doors
She is walking your way
Ain't got time for your day
But she will pull you down
And make you frown
You got to love it when you fall for that smile
Sure drives me wild
And she went out searching for God
But they sold her religion
And she went looking for fame
But they gave her a another name
She is coming your way
Ain't got time for your day
But she will pull you down
And make you frown
You got to love it when you fall for that smile
At times still, Sure drives me wild

Yesterday
01:02
|
|||
A token of good will
Lost when I stood still
Wondering where you were
Wondering until I was sure
Lifted up with every single waking desire
I can remember you just like yesterday
The Sun would rise and with it your beauty would transpire
I just wish everything was just like yesterday

Dressed to Kill
03:03
|
|||
Talk is cheap it gets nothing done
Yet she speaks to everyone
With their backstreet tricks
And their dirty little deals
She wares a crucifix
To drive your thrills
6 and 9 then 7
She ascended from heaven
Grey blue eyes
Telling me no lies
In black satire
She tripped my wires
In a change of plans
She devours man
Shes standing still
Shes dressed to kill
She stands beyond what anyone can see
Even if that's hard to believe
She lives in a state of mind
That surpasses Space and Time
In a change of plans
She devours man
Shes standing still
Shes dressed to kill
Shes got your name
There's no escape
Don't be afraid
Everyone gets it in the end anyway

Cold
03:29
|
|||
Dark outside
Late tonight
Child don't cry
It's not your time
All alone
No one knows
Whats going on
Inside
When does this all end
Tell me, Tell me again (oh, oh)
When does the start begin
Tell me, Tell me again (oh, oh)
No one to talk to
nothing is left to say
Nothing you can do
You've lost yourself today
When does this all end
Tell me, Tell me again (oh, oh)
When does the start begin
Tell me, Tell me again (oh, oh)
What happens here
May break your fears
What you lose dear
Could make things clear
Shiny blue eyes, bluer then the sky
(meet) Dark green eyes, that try to get by
But nothings more fatal or cold
Then finding love when she's already sold
To someone else, someone else, someone else
To someone else, someone else, someone else
To someone else, someone else, someone else
Someone else

Rolling Hills
03:59
|

Dress me up as a cowboy
Put me on a train
Send me out to the western plains
Tell me how you love me
Without any restraint
Not for now but for her always
The led is the gavel
In these trying days
Never thought I would cry
As easy as it may seem
My thoughts of you died
On the edge of those rolling hills
And the look in your eyes
Is the look I'll remember
Until that day I die
I shall surrender
All of my personal guilt
That has made me felt
Like my love for you remains true
All of my love still goes to you
Never thought I would cry
As easy as it may seem
My thoughts of you died
On the edge of those rolling hills
Never thought I would cry
As easy as it may seem
My thoughts of you died
On the edge of those rolling hills
I'll Die I'll Die
I'll Die I'll Die
On the edge of those rolling hills

1,2,3,4
Oh set me free
Oh no, oh Lord
I'm on the floor
All alone
Again
And I'm wondering why
I'm here oh dear
I don't think I'll survive (this time)
I'll be awaiting for your love your love your love
I'll be awaiting for your love your love your love
I'll be awaiting for your love your love your love
I'll be awaiting for your love your love your love
And I know
It ain't
That way
Cos' your promises ring true
And there will be a day
I'll hear your voice again
Until then my love
I'll find a way to survive (this time)
I'll be awaiting for your love your love your love
I'll be awaiting for your love your love your love
I'll be awaiting for your love your love your love
I'll be awaiting for your love your love your love
{Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh}
And wisdom's cup brews a truth
I can't deny myself or you
So if that day ever come to pass...
Well here it comes there it goes oh no I don't think I'll survive this time
I'll be awaiting for your love your love your love
I'll be awaiting for your love your love your love
I'll be awaiting for your love your love your love
I'll be awaiting for your love your love your love

Closed Eyes
03:20
|

With your closed eyes
The world passed you by
With your closed eyes
I never said good-bye
With your closed eyes
You counted to seven
(and) With your closed eyes
You overlooked Heaven
With your closed eyes
You missed what I said
With your closed eyes
My luck fell dead
With your closed eyes
There was a celebration
With your closed eyes
Transcommunication
Guess I was the side show
To your main stage
Now we'll never know
In this day and age
What might have happened here
The time for heart break draws near
Some stories were meant to be told
No matter what takes us hold
With your closed eyes
I fell through the stars
With your closed eyes
You hid your scars
With your closed eyes
I found who you were
(and) With your closed eyes
You caused in me a stir
With your closed eyes
I forgot to mention
Your closed eyes
My true intention
With your closed eyes
There was a celebration
With your closed eyes
Transcommunication
Guess I was the side show
To your main stage
Now we'll never know
In this day and age
What might have happened here
The time for heart break draws near
Some stories were not meant to be told
No matter what takes us hold
Walking blindfolded never felt so good
When the sound of your voice left me where I stood
Now I embody a wasteland
Where once I stood in Graceland
Wake up! Wake up!
You gotta wake up!

Fading Glory
07:00
|
|||
As cold as stone
Standing Alone
Lights all lit up
I won't forget
The evening tide
You by my side
I won't forget (I won't give up)
What I regret
With the flag all faded
Hearts and dreams torn down
This moment created
This restless town
Past by memories
Something you said to me
Guess I was the side show
To your main stage
No one will ever know
In this day and age
What might have been
(do) You remember when?
Suppose it was just all
In my head
Fa la la la, Fa la la
Fa la la la, Fa la la
This Christmas
I spoke to Jesus
He told me the reason why I'm here
Don't you focus on the widow in the corner
This right here is the gift this year
(scat singing)
This love will see you through
There is no reason to fall down
This Christmas
I spoke to Jesus
He told me the reason why I'm here
Don't you be drawn down by the widow in the corner
(scat singing)
In these arms you will find soul comfort
In these eyes you will see love
Through these words you will find love
Through these words you will feel loved
This Christmas
I spoke to Jesus
He told me the reason why I am here
Don't be drawn down by the widow over there (corner)
This right here is your gift this year
[spoke]
You got to listen to this
(Merry Christmas)
In the middle of all that failed
In the midst of those who dwell
And what we now know as our home
May it never remind us of what we just seen
May it not remind us of that hell
May we find that love conquers all
Before we fall, before we fall
May we find that love conquers all

Silent Joe
03:03
|
|||
He's a narcissistic Man with a guitar in is hand
A song that he sings, A song that he sings
He keeps a place in his heart
Open to those who wish to start
Fights from the merry road
A song that he sings all alone
Can't take away the pain
He feels deep down every single day
After the towns folk shout
And he takes his honorable bow
Only to fall down
Headed into the next town
And the rain comes down and the lights fade out when there's nothing else left to say
And the rain comes down and the lights fade out when there's nothing else left to say
And he got a picture in his pocket
Of his first love
Yeah a picture in a locket
Of his first love
And the rain comes down and the lights fade out when there's nothing else left to say
And the rain comes down and the lights fade out and there's nothing else left to say
(scat singing...)
(Oh Silent Joe! Don't you GO! Silent Joe! What do you know?)
There's a sunset
And hes fallen to the ground
And I don't think he'll soon forget
That last town
He's waving his arms in the air
Singin' his final farewell
Farewell
Farewell, Farewell
