"Ball And Chain"

"Ball And Chain"


So how are you? What do you do?
I couldn't help but notice that you've got one too
It's what we do, what's good for you
I think I might have had another déjà vu

That silver spoon in front of you
Invisible to others but so clear to you
We share a view so I assume
That's why we're standing in this crowded room

We think it's more than a little strange
That you found a name for that ball and chain
Why do you think that we don't complain?
'Cause we found a way to play through all that pain

Strap your shoes and pay your dues
'Cause where we're goin' ain't no pleasure cruise
You'll need some tools, forget the rules
Just run for cover when I light the fuse

We think it's more than a little strange
That you found a name for that ball and chain
Why do you think that we don't complain?
'Cause we found a way to play through all that pain

You know we're all the same
And rules are just a part of the game
But sometimes rules get broken

So win or lose, you can't refuse
'Cos maybe one day we'll be front page news
That's what we do, was that good for you?
Perhaps some day we'll share another déjà vu

We think it's more than a little strange
That you found a name for that ball and chain
Why do you think that we don't complain?
'Cause we found a way to play through all that pain

You know we're all the same
And rules are just part of the game
But sometimes rules get broken!

Why do you think that we don't complain?
'Cause we found a way to play through all that pain
We think it's more than a little strange

That you found a name for that ball and chain
Why do you think that we don't complain?
'Cause we found a way to play through all that pain

You know we're all the same
And rules are just part of the game
But sometimes rules get broken
You know we're all the same
But sometimes rules get broken

"Believe"

"Believe"


Talk to me
Tell me how it feels to be misunderstood
Talk to me
Explain to me what life is like inside your world

But don’t worry, there’s no hurry
My impatience knows no fury
So don’t worry, there’s no hurry
Take your time, tell me if you’re ready

Come to me
I will give and receive
All I need is for you to believe

Talk to me
When it feels as though the walls are closing in
Talk to me
Day or night, I understand the shape you’re in

But don’t worry, there’s no hurry
My impatience knows no fury
So don’t worry, there’s no hurry
Take your time, tell me if you’re ready

Come to me
I will give and receive
All I need is for you to believe
Come to me
I can help you feel free
Take my hand & understand that I believe

"Bet On This"

"Bet On This"


Gonna buy me a steel umbrella
'Cause things ain't going too well
I go to bed thinking I'm in heaven
When I wake up I'm in hell
Take my dog for his morning walk
Shit am I glad he can't talk
Sooner or later it all comes back to me
You can bet on this
If it can happen
It'll happen to me (It'll happen to me)
Every time it happens
Why does it happen to me
Gonna buy me some more insurance
This asphalt surfin's getting to me
Accidents are an everyday occurrence
If there's a God, He's laughing at me
Might as well be the invisible man
See my footprints sinkin' in the quicksand
Sooner or later it all comes back to me
Bet on this
If it can happen (It'll happen to me)
Bet on this, if it can happen
Everytime it happens
Why does it happen to me
Bet on this
If it can happen (Buy me a steel umbrella)
It'll happen to me
Bet on this (No doubt in my mind)

"Blind Side Of Your Heart"

"Blind Side Of Your Heart"


Where were you hiding and when did you know
You'd feel more safe inside a world of your own?
You're disappointed, you sure do wear it well
I can tell
You've got your reasons, still you remain
Behind the wall you built to keep out the pain

If you can wait until tomorrow
My guess is you will have everything you need

Imagine where you'd be today without me
Blind side of your heart
Let it out, there's no doubt
You'd be better off without the
Blind side of your heart

And when you wake up don't be surprised
What may be waiting when you open you eyes
This is the moment you've tried so hard to conceal
This is real

[Repeat Bridge]

[Repeat Chorus]

It's not too late to learn to live without the
Blind side of your heart
Given time, you may find
You don't need to hide behind the

Blind side of your heart
It's so much easier to see things through the
Blind side of your heart
But with eyes open wide
You'll discover what's inside the
Blind side of your heart

"Book Of Lies"

"Book Of Lies"


Somebody try the side door
You know its gettin' kinda late
I'll just assume there's a reason there's
Nothin' on my plate
It sounds a lot like show time
But why am I up at six
No one told me we'd be
Playin' at Fort Dix

[Chorus:]
Round & round it never stops
Each day a new surprise
You'll find it all inside
You brand new book of lies
Round & round where we stop
You guess as good as mine
It's one big comp
Your brand new book of lies

Will that be yen or lira?
Is that in local time?
& if someone cancelled
What's everybody doing in line
S'Pretty hard to get a signal
A way out here in the sticks
Got a feelin' that the local's
Bin up to his old tricks

[Chorus]

I think I know it's Monday
But this is not Milan
I went to sleep in Brussels
& Woke up in Japan
Somebody try the side door
You know its gettin' kinda late
I'll just assume there's a reason there's
Nothin' on my plate

[Chorus]

"Breathing Lessons"

"Breathing Lessons"


I know how to roll a seven
& I know I've got a place in heaven
But I'm in no hurry to go
I know all the compromises
& I've seen all the shapes & sizes
But I never go with the flow

[Bridge:]
I think I need some breathing lessons
Sometimes I go too far
I know I need some breathing lessons
Show me where to start

I don't know how to change the weather
But I've seen you in lace & leather
& I keep that thought to myself
I know how to live on credit
Take a dive & never regret it
So much for sharing the wealth

[Bridge]

[Chorus:]
Breath in, breath out
you don't know how I need you right now
Breath in - If I let go
And breath out - Tell me you'll catch me
I know that you will show me how

I know how to lock & load it
& I know how to crack and de-code it
Call it my fortunate fame
I know how to do what matters
Shake the tree & how to climb the ladder
I'm at the top of my game

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

"Can't You See Me Now?"

"Can't You See Me Now?"


Let's play a little game
Don't you see me now?
I'm not that far away
Can't you see me now?
I'm like this every day
Don't you see me now?
So try another way
Can't you see me now?

I know you wanna play
You need to find another way
Look once again
Can't you see me now?

You know I know your name
Don't you see me now?
You think I feel no pain
Don't you see me now?
You know I'm there for you
Don't you see me now?
Got a hand in everything you do
Can't you see me now?

I know you wanna play
You need to find another way
Look once again
Can't you see me now?
Out here no rules apply
Just play the game and don't ask why
Look once again
Can't you see me?

[Chorus:]
I'm always there, I'll never leave
Don't overlook what you don't see
Look once again, don't you see me now?
You'll always be a part of me
And that is how it gonna be
I know that now, there is no other way… no other way
I'm here to stay!

Just take a walk with me
Don't you see me now?
I'll tell you how it will be
Can't you see me now?
And don't look the other way
Don't you see me now?
You might miss it but things won't change
Can't you see me now?

I know you wanna play
You need to find another way
Look once again
Can't you see me?

[Chorus]

Let's play a little game
Don't you see me now?
I'm not that far away
Can't you see me now?

Out here no rules apply
Just play the game and don't ask why
Look once again
Can't you see me?

[Chorus]

"Careful Where You Step"

"Careful Where You Step"


Can you see the day,
When everyone can say they've got one?
A cloud is moving in, blotting out your landmine vision
So many are afraid, concealing all their secret weapons
You can see it in their eyes,
Like the brake lights on a highway glisten
Three billion is a lot, it's impossible to separate them
A career is made and lost, in sorting out the devastation
What you get you've got, the rest can be imagination
And what you lose you've lost,
Here comes the instant separation
Careful where you step
There may be a mine under there

"Cat Walk"

"Cat Walk"


High up above
Like a cat clings
To an icy root
He keeps a slow pace,
Tight hold,
Anxious view.
There's something ticking away
Inside his head.
He's got to keep that vital distance
You can see it in his eyes
That glance across the shoulder
[Chorus:]
He's on a Cat Walk
He's got a Cat Walk
He's on a Cat Walk
He's got a Cat Walk
He's always on the far side of the street
Never getting too close,
Too near, might meet,
Someone a little too close to himself
You can see it in his eyes
Those eyes are getting older
You can see it in his eyes,
That glance across the shoulder
[Chorus]

"Chances Are #1"

"Chances Are #1"


Have you ever made a wish
And held your breath for days
And when you get that wish
You just can't seem to wish it away
Well chances are, it might come true
Have you ever found yourself

In a place you don't belong
And someone says, "Please Wait"
And you wanna say, "How Long?"
Chances are, it just might come true
Chances are, it just might come true
