"Next In Line"

"Next In Line"


One more step
take it slow
The way he treats you he’s got to go
Now you must rise up
And learn to free your mind
You got to move on
Onto the next in line

He takes your love
And gives none back
Don’t need proving
Just face the facts
The seeds of your love,
Have fallen on stone this time
You’ve got to move on
To the next in line

When you believe
In your own worth
No one ever can do you dirt
While your deciding
The best may pass you by
You’ve got to move on
To the next in line

"No Time"

"No Time"


I tried to take the easy way
The easy line
To bury myself
To sit on the shelf
To bide my time

Now that the game is up
My cover’s blown
You count the cost
You’re wandering lost
In the fall-out zone

[Chorus:]
I learnt to live
Within the space
Between the lines
I can’t believe you did not receive
All the danger signs

I never understood
What took so long
Why did you fight
Just to prove yourself right
When you knew you were wrong

[Chorus]

[Chorus]

"Not Inside - Outside"

"Not Inside - Outside"


Keep my eye to the horizon
Hour by hour, day on day
Capture the word that I can fly on
When truth comes into breed

Once I knew a real believer
The heart became his one true home
All that he said grows that much deeper
Now that he's gone

Not inside, outside
Get outside this whole mess

Bring yourselves to my table
Take all the bread and wine you need
But if we confuse fact with fable
We will be deceived

I'll go back to my beginning
Even through the darkest dark
And every prize that I'm not winning
Will not leave his mark

"One More Word"

"One More Word"


I know you seem to have misunderstood
Tried to help but it did me no good
I don’t see that it’s such a big deal
That’s just the way it feels

I think I’ve heard enough out of you
You made your bed, lie on it too
I know you think I’m being too hard
Baby, I marked your card

[Chorus:]
I’m so tired of eating your dirt
Had my fun for what it was worth
Tide is turned, it’s a brand new day
Now I’m on my way
One more word out of you
There’s no telling what I might do
One more word out of you
Think I might lose control

Tried so hard it was bad for my health
Gave you enough rope to hang yourself
This is it, that’s all I’m trying to say
Now I’m on my way

[Chorus x2]

"Only Time"

"Only Time"


Lonely is the mountain stream
As it wanders to the sea
Lonely like forgotten dreams
Drifting in eternity

[Chorus:]
Only time
Can take this hurt away
Change your mind
Come with me today

Lonely like the broken heart
Whose love can never be
Bravely holding back the tears
You want no-one to see

[Chorus]

 

[fox69]

"Over You"

"Over You"


Day is over, fading light
I don’t want you to go tonight
I would die for one more hour in your arms
Once were lovers, special friends
Losers now at our stories end
We two together for this one last goodbye
Take this moment keep it fine
Hold it safe in your mind
Taste this pain coz its all that remains of our love

[Chorus:]
Where the sorrow lives
Where the time forgives
Don’t forget that I’m dyin’ here inside
Over you

Looking back now wondering
‘Bout the sadness that love can bring
And how time turned our bonds into chains
I can see now, I was wrong
Acted bad for so long
Now I know that I needed a show something more

[Chorus]

 

[fox69]

"Passion"

"Passion"


Clear the stage, raise the curtain
Forget the costume, take me as I am
Let the spotlight burn my body
Whatever happens now, will suit my plan
That’s the message, now I know you’re watching me
Do you really wanna see?

[Chorus:]
I need to feel the passion
I need to feel the heat
I need to feel reaction
To the main in me

I’m the actor, I’m the writer
Win or lose, it’s me who takes the blame
Open handed I stand before you
The time has come for me to fan the flame
Hear me out now, Am I reaching you at all?
Coz tonight I stand to fall

[Chorus]

Am I reaching you at all?
Coz tonight I stand to fall

[Chorus]

"Pride"

"Pride"


I got no frustrations playin' on my mind
No complications, I guess I'm doin' fine
I got no money, can't even pay my rent
I end up on one thing, and to me its heaven sent
I've got my pride, hiding inside
I've got my pride
Tell me tell me now
I've got my pride, hiding inside
I've got my pride

I saw a man this mornin' sitting both sides of the fence
Being diplomatic, had lost his common sense
If he had his wits about him, you'de know he was a fool
'cause if you can't find no solution, then you got to play it cool
I've got my pride, hiding inside
I've got my pride
Let me hear ya say it babe
I've got my pride, hiding inside
I've got my pride

I've got my pride, hiding inside
I've got my pride
I've got my pride, hiding inside
I've got my pride

"Ready For The Taking"

"Ready For The Taking"


After the flame baby
You put your future on the line
New to the game darling
You burnt your fingers, everytime

[Chorus:]
You stand accused, waiting
All love refused
Giving up and breaking
Those you have used, aching
Nothing to lose
Ready for the taking now

Fool to believe baby
You tried to gain the upper hand
You was deceived darling
You wound up sinking in the sand

[Chorus]

 

[fox69]

"River"

"River"


River, keep on rising
Carry my soul to the sea
Troubled waters,take me with you
Follow in destiny

River, where is the justice
When the man can stumble and fall?
In the waters of confusion
Stumble and lose it all

Roll on... Keep on rolling
You don't even have to be aware that I'm there
Taking pride in the lessons I've learned
And joy from the river before me

River, keep on rising
Carry my soul to the sea
Troubled waters,take me with you
Follow in destiny

Roll on... Keep on rolling
You don't have to be aware that I'm there
Taking pride in the lessons I've learned
And joy from the river before me

River, keep on rising
Carry my soul to the sea
Troubled waters, take me with you
Follow in destiny
I'll follow in destiny
