"Midnight In Philidelphia"

"Midnight In Philidelphia"


I know what it's like to hide
Sit in your room and break down there and cry
And all I could say was your name
I've had my share of pain,
But I know it's made me who I am today
So I look back with no regrets
I look back with no regrets

I know that you are watching me somewhere over the moon,
Shouting down that you love me wondering why I can't hear you
If only for a moment, if only in my mind,
I could go back to the beginning,
In the place where I felt like a child

I can tell you mean well by your eyes,
But a father's intentions can be turned to lies
But nobody's perfect I guess
People can let you down
I followed the leader that fell to the ground
But you never left me alone
You never left me alone

I know that you are watching me somewhere over the moon,
Shouting down that you love me wondering why I can't hear you
If only for a moment, if only in my mind,
I could go back to the beginning,
In the place where I felt like a child

I know that you are watching me somewhere over the moon,
Shouting down that you love me wondering why I can't hear you
If only for a moment, if only in my mind,
I could go back to the beginning,
In the place I felt like a child

"Mudpie"

"Mudpie"


Nothing but a mudpie wrapped up inside with a pretty bow
Nothing but a castle built on top of a swamp of quicksand
And inside these cardboard walls and saran wrap windows
Lies a rusty pot of fools gold that you got with your life

You thought you'd tie your bad back by loyalty
You thought you taught yourself to walk like royalty
'Til the day you became his prey
As you tripped over your red carpet

You wash your hair in melaleuca oil
Then you wrapped your head up with tin foil
And prance around in your bathrobe
Pretending you're a king

You're spinning hard
Sinking faster now

Well you can follow your rainbows
And I will follow the sun now
Wherever he goes it's not too far to run
So I will follow the sun
Follow the sun

Nothing but a calendar hanging in your walls that's twenty-three years old
Nothing but a for-sale sign on a house that's already sold
Trying to chew through that chocolate-covered barbed wire
'Cause there's a mountain of beautiful filth waiting for you on the other side

You're spinning hard
Sinking faster now

Well you can follow your rainbows
And I will follow the sun now
Wherever he goes it's not too far to run
So I will follow the sun
Follow the sun

Follow the sun, follow the sun

Clever lies in the rusty and forgotten
Brilliant minds end up with Alzheimer's
What I felt was so deep and I am so hollow
And what I thought had meaning ended up so shallow

And you can follow your rainbows
And I will follow the sun now
Wherever he goes it's not too far to run
So I will follow the sun

Yeah, you can follow your rainbows
And I will follow the sun now
Wherever he goes it's not too far to run
So I will follow the sun

"My Precious"

"My Precious"


can't hold you down
can't hurry you up
there's nothing I can do
a slave to your hands
climb up above
your precious time
don't worry your time
don't hurry your mind
where did you go
where did you hide
all I can do
is watch you pass by
climb up above
your precious time
don't worry your time
don't hurry your mind
every time I try to take it back
I know I don't wanna live like that
I'll wait for tomorrow
too tired to go the other way
too late to wait another day
I'm going on
climb up above
your precious time
don't worry your time
don't hurry your mind
climb up above
your precious time
don't worry your time
don't hurry your mind

"Near Life Experience"

"Near Life Experience"


If I showed my hand shaking like a leaf
You might not understand, but I bet you'd believe
There's spiders inside, crawling around
The cobwebs in my mind that I tried to drown out
You said I look like a ghost, man I almost was
You said I need to let go, quit chasing that buzz
That picture in time, frozen like ice
Cycles keep repeating, beating me down to size
Well maybe I'm blind, just throwing darts in the dark
I didn't get what I want, I got what I need
Man, it hurts like hell down here on my knees
Is this where I end, or is this where we begin?
The night is my friend, I blend in with the best
The vampires, the crooks, the felons and the rest
Now we can pretend that we really care less
And act like we love what we really detest
Well maybe I'm blind, just throwing darts in the dark
I didn't get what I want, I got what I need
Man it hurts like hell down here on my knees
Is this where I end, or is this where we begin?
Make this go away, I'm begging please
There's little life left here for me to bleed
Is this where I end, or is this where we begin?
I'm looking up but I'm feeling down
Seems like cutting these corners, was cutting me down to size
Am I losing control or losing my mind?
I know for a fact I'm losing my last place to hide
Well maybe I'm blind, just throwing darts in the dark
I didn't get what I want, I got what I need
Man it hurts like hell down here on my knees
Is this where I end, or is this where we begin?
My pulse is racing, I can't catch my breath
This near-life experience scared me to death
Is this where I end, or is this where we begin?
Or is this where we begin?

"Nerve Damage"

"Nerve Damage"


I see through your clothes
Your nerve damage shows
Trying not to feel
Anything that's real
You're losing control
Meltdown's looking for a new clown
Living in a world that's make believe
Used up burned out always got a hand out
Ain't nothing here for free
Now you're hanging on the edge of tomorrow
Let go let it be
New circus freak
With black eyes that speak
Life takes it's toll
You push and it pulls
You're losing control
Meltdown's looking for a new clown
Living in a world that's make believe
Used up burned out always got a hand out
Ain't nothing here for free
Now you're hanging on the edge of tomorrow
Let go let it be
I see thru your clothes
Your nerve damage shows
You're losing control
Meltdown's looking for a new clown
Living in a world that's make believe
Used up burned out always got a hand out
Ain't nothing here for free
Now you're hanging on the edge of tomorrow
Let go let it be
Hell bent looking for a god send
Kicking down the door waiting for a sign
Right side turning on the bright side
That might not be what you find
Wake up move on nothing left to prove
Got nightmares in your dreams

"Nobody Listen"

"Nobody Listen"


Future lives in the mind
While we fall from behind
Missing light from the trees
Missing you, look at me
From a thought to a sound
From a fear we expound
Give it life
Make it breathe
Spinning wheels
Into words we believe
Everybody talk but nobody listen,
Nobody listen, nobody listen
Everybody talk but nobody listen,
Nobody listen, nobody listen
Everybody talk but nobody listen,
Nobody listen, nobody listen
Oh Ohh Oh
Hear the thunder and rain
Feel our heart filled with pain
Travel through time and space
Where did love lose it's place
Can we find who we are
If we stare at a star
In the silence, it screams
There is nothing that is as it seems
Everybody talk but nobody listen,
Nobody listen, nobody listen
Everybody talk but nobody listen,
Nobody listen, nobody listen
Everybody talk but nobody listen,
Nobody listen, nobody listen
Oh Ohh Oh [x2]
Can we find who we are
If we stare at a star?
In the silence it screams
There is nothing that is as it seems
Everybody talk but nobody listen,
Nobody listen, nobody listen
Everybody talk but nobody listen,
Nobody listen, nobody listen
Everybody talk but nobody listen,
Nobody listen, nobody listen
Oh Ohh Oh [x3]

"One For The Pain"

"One For The Pain"


I love you though you're toxic
You've got a wicked hold on me
I've got a car that's full of boxes
But I just can't seem to leave
Now I know you can't fix crazy
I tried for way too long
I've got a one-way ticket out of here
And in the morning I'll be gone
'Cause the war is over now,
Now the war is over
Life is back in colour now
Now the war is over
So take one for the pain
Two to forget
Three shots fired, yeah I should have known better
Take one for the pain
Two to forget
Three years gone, yeah I should have known better
Run away from this madness that I crave
Better take one for the pain
Two to forget
Three times now
Yeah I should have known better
I think I've always liked the trouble
Just a hint of misery
'Til the smile tastes of poison
And consumes the rest of me
'Cause the storm is over now,
Now the storm is over
The sky is breaking open now
Now the storm is over
So take one for the pain
Two to forget
Three shots fired, yeah I should have known better
Take one for the pain
Two to forget
Three years gone, yeah I should have known better
Run away from this madness that I crave
Better take one for the pain
Two to forget
Three times now
Yeah I should have known better
The war is over now
Now the war is over
Life is back in colour now,
Now the war is over
Now I know you can't fix crazy
I tried for way too long
I've got a one-way ticket out of here
And in the morning I'll be gone
So take one for the pain
Two to forget
Three shots fired, yeah I should have known better
Take one for the pain
Two to forget
Three years gone, yeah I should have known better
Run away from this madness that I crave
Better take one for the pain
Two to forget
Three times now
Yeah I should have known better

"Only One"

"Only One"


She's got a pretty smile
It covers up the poison that she hides
She walks around in circles in my head
Waiting for a chance to break me chance to take me down
Now I see the burden you gave me
Is too much to carry too much to bury inside
I guess you're the only one that nobody changes
I guess you're the only one left standing
When everything else goes down
You're still the only one
Yeah you're still the only one
It's all shallow and all so appealing now
I'm up to my ankles and I'm drowning anyway
In a sea of sarcastic faces familiar places
Everything looks quite the same here
It's all confusingly amusing
Bitter and tainted the picture you painted to me
I guess you're the only one that nobody changes
I guess you're the only one left standing
When everything else goes down
You're still the only one who will never change faces
I guess you're the only one left standing
When everything else goes down
Just 'cause it's all in your head
Doesn't mean it has to be in mine
Don't believe what you said
Still can't get it out of my mind
I've tried to find myself in approval
I've already been there already done that
It got me nowhere it brought me nothing
But a good place to hide in no one to confide in now
I guess you're the only one that nobody changes
I guess you're the only one that will never change faces
I guess you're the only one

"Only You're The One"

"Only You're The One"


This is a night
Like none before
I knew it when you opened up the door
With a look to paint the sky
Let me read between the lines in your eyes
Tonight

It’s the event
We dreamed about
Where we whispered all the words they’re shouting out
And now it’s one two three four
Tonight

I’m with you when the lights go down
Take my hand I’m all yours now
I know you’re the only one
That would never lead me on
I’m with you when the lights go down
Cuz you’re the one and
Only you’re the one and...

The only one
Who keeps it here
In each moment as the voices disappear
The audience stands
The band begins
And it’s one two three four
Tonight

I’m with you when the lights go down
Take my hand I’m all yours now
I know you’re the only one
That would never lead me on
I’m with you when the lights go down
Take my hand I’m all yours now
Cuz you’re the one and...

Only you’re the one
Only you’re the one

I’m with you when the lights go down
Take my hand I’m all yours now
I know you’re the only one
That would never lead me on
I’m with you when the lights go down
Take my hand I’m all yours now
You’re the one and
Only you’re the one and...

You’re the one and…
Only you’re the one and...
