"Gotta Love It"

"Gotta Love It"


I know somewhere I'm there and on the mind
Somebody must have really hurt you bad
You do to others whats been done to you
If you think that's right you must be mad
What ever happened to the innocence
You gotta tell me why

You get this look that I don't recognize
God only knows what you've become
What ever happened to the innocence
You gotta tell me why

You gotta love it, gotta leave it
Gotta have it but you really don't need it
Won't be happy til you think you know it all
You gotta love it, gotta leave it
Gotta have it but you really don't need it
One day the sky will fall

Night falls your off to finding company
Must really hate to be alone
You used to be so damn emotional
So what was it that turned your heart to stone?
What happened to the innocence
You gotta tell me why

You gotta love it, gotta leave it
Gotta have it but you really don't need it
Won't be happy til you think you know it all
You gotta love it, gotta leave it
Gotta have it but you really don't need it
One day the sky will fall

You gotta love it, gotta leave it
Gotta have it but you really don't need it
Won't be happy til you think you know it all
You gotta love it, gotta leave it
Gotta have it but you really don't need it
One day the sky will fall

You gotta love it, gotta leave it
Gotta have it but you really don't need it
Won't be happy til you think you know it all
You gotta love it, gotta leave it
Gotta have it but you really don't need it
Don't you think you might be heading for a fall

"Half The Time"

"Half The Time"


Wouldn't it be nice
If there were more hours in a day
There'd be more time to look good
And lots more time to stay

If you had the time, half the time
If you had the time, half the time
How would you spend it,
If you didn't have to lend it?

You may have had hours
You've spent waiting to leave
Consuming those minutes
Was frustration indeed

If you had that time, all that time
If you had that time, go that time
It was a bore when you got there
You had to hurry just to leave

Watching this long race
Is the sport for me
& watching you keep pace
Is exciting to see

If you lend the time, half the time
& you spend the time, half the time
I'm not sure who's winning
Or if you just try to place

You hurry to get there
Then you hurry to leave
Who did you meet there?
Or did you have time to see

You may have had hours
You spend waiting to leave
Consuming those minutes
But it's frustration indeed

If you had that time, all that time
If you had that time, go that time
It was a bore when you got there
You had to hurry just to leave

Wouldn't it be nice
If there were more hours in a day
There'd be more time to look good
And lots more time to stay

If you had the time, half the time
If you had the time, half the time
How would you spend it,
if you didn't have to lend it?

You hurry to get there
Then you hurry to leave
Who did you meet there?
Or did you have time to see

"Hands Of Time"

"Hands Of Time"


For every word there is forgiveness
For every lie I stand defenseless
Under the moon the truth is buried
Your silent wound is my cross to carry

Through the narrow hands of time
An open door will lead you far and wide
In a world we learn to fly
You're running for a lonely place to hide

A lonely world will remember
Every empire won't surrender
My point of view is rendered empty
The burden lies in my hands of entry

Through the narrow hands of time
An open door will lead you far and wide
In a world we learn to fly
You're running for a lonely place to hide
Through the narrow hands of time

Through the narrow hands of time
An open door will lead you far and wide
In a world we learn to fly
You're running for a lonely place to hide

When the lonely road is far and wide
In the mystery of your mind
And you're searching for a place to hide
Then the history,then the history comes alive

In the mystery of the mind
Then the history comes,
The history comes alive

"Hands Up"

"Hands Up"


The saints and the sinners
Are waiting for their paradise
& all the new beginners
Prepare to make the sacrifice
All the sons and the daughters
Who think that they have seen the light
Will surely walk on water
If they give it all they've got tonight

Sometimes that's all it takes
Some quiet desperation and a leap of faith

Hands up, Get in line
It's time to step into the light
Hands up, Wait for the sign
We're gonna raise the roof tonight

And the new solution
Is just a buck or two away
A healthy contribution
Will help to get you on your way
I can see you're nervous
But good things come to those who wait
I'll be at your service
Just don't forget to fill the plate

There's always a saving grace
So tell yourself you're going to a better place

Hands up, Get in line
It's time to step into the light
Hand's up, wait for the sign
We're gonna raise the roof tonight
Hands up, Don't be shy
You're finally gonna see the light
Hands up, Wait for the sign
We're gonna raise the roof tonight

[Repeat Chorus]

"Hangman"

"Hangman"


Listening to the sound of wood being set into place
The rhythm suggesting someone's in a hurry
Soon those footsteps will be coming here to rescue me
All this time in thoughts, it's twice they killing me

Hangman please, no pain
Be quick, I don't wish to feel
What the dream tonight told me

They said there was a fight
I don't recall my even being there
I had too much to drink
They say I brought a gun with me and I used it there

Hangman please, no pain
Be quick, I don't wish to feel
What the dream tonight told me

Lead me down the hall
Now I see the silhouette that waits for me
Black cloak standing tall
Do you know my name, can you feel for me?

Hangman please, no pain
Be quick, I don't wish to feel
What the dream tonight told...

"Heaven Can Wait"

"Heaven Can Wait"


Some come early,
and some come late
Some hold back
and some can't wait
Some have nightmares
and some have dreams
Life's not always what it seems.
Don't wanna know
about the chains
That still hold you.
Don't wanna hear
about the games
That we Play.
I Wanna know just who I am
And where I stand
and who will hold
My hand if once again
I find my life in disarray.
Don't wanna know about
the final solution
I'm in no hurry to find it out
What comes next.
Heaven can wait.
Some come early,
and some come late
Some hold back
and some can't wait
Some have nightmares
and some have dreams
Life's not always what it seems.
Don't wanna know
about the dreams
That still haunt you.
Don't wanna know
about the lives
That We've lived
Don't wanna know
what's on you mind
Or how you find the time
to separate the
Truth from fiction, when we
go our separate ways.
Heaven can wait.

"Help Me Out"

"Help Me Out"


You just sit there like there's nothing wrong
Slightly unconcerned
Don't you think your silence
Holds you back?
Won't you ever learn? (Take it)
Can't you see it's worth it?
Can't you try?
Time is running out
If you don't think you'll make it
Let me know
But please don't waste my time
Just help me out
I can't do this myself anymore
Help me out
I can't do this myself anymore
If you lack inspiration
If you need a push
Think of what you'll gain
I won't criticize you
I'll be kind
I'll even play your game
If you'll help me out
I can't do this myself anymore
Help me out
I can't do this myself anymore
You just sit there listening
Like there's nothing wrong
Slightly unconcerned
Don't you think your silence
Holds you back?
Won't you ever learn? (Take it)

"Here I Am"

"Here I Am"


I woke to the sound of a crash
Oh no, I know you're fighting next door
I thought I'd seen the last
I can't believe you still go back for more

What have you got in mind
Why do you waste your time
He gives you nothing at all
He's hurt you before
He'll hurt you again
Leave it all behind

Here I am
Wondering when you'll come into my life
There you are
With fire in your eyes

Here I am
You know that I'll do everything I can
There you are
Holding my heart in your hands

You know there's something wrong
And I know, I've seen it on your face
Soon as he finds you're gone
There'll be someone taking your place

Haven't you had enough
Haven't you had it rough
To hold emotions for three
So take my advice
Head for the door
Leave it all behind

Here I am
Wondering when you'll come into my life
There you are
With fire in your eyes

Here I am
You know that I'll do everything I can
There you are
Holding my heart in your hands

Here I am
Wondering when you'll come into my life
There you are
With fire in your eyes

Here I am
You know that I'll do everything I can
There you are
Holding my heart in your hands

"Home"

"Home"


You speak, when you are spoken to
And buy what you've been sold
You want, but you can't help yourself
Maybe it's time to go home
You smile, with a convincing grin
And laugh, until you frown
You play the game, you know you can't win
If you want some shelter from the storm
Somewhere you feel safe and warm
You can always go home
I think it's time to go home
You cry, but you can't show your tears
You lie, until you feel weak
You're scared, but you can't hide your fears
If you want some shelter from the rain
Somewhere you can ease the pain
You can always go home
I think it's time to go home
No questions asked
No judgements passed
And now, where have you been?
Just nice to see you
And welcome back
Oh yes, you're finally home
Laugh when you want to laugh
Cry when you want to cry
Smile when you want to smile
Lie if you need to lie
You smile with a convincing grin
And laugh until you frown
You play the game you know you can't win
When you need shelter from the storm
Somewhere you feel safe and warm, oh yea
You can always go home
It's time to go home
No questions asked
No judgements passed
Now where have you been
It's nice to see you
Welcome back!
Oh yes, you're finally home
If you want shelter from the storm
Somewhere we feel safe and warm
Then you know, I know, you know
We can always go home

"Hot To Cold"

"Hot To Cold"


You've got us hanging off your every word
Patiently waiting a sign
One minute we can expect the absurd
Next minute everything's fine
So unpredictable no reason nor rhyme
Worse than the hours in a day
We seem to remember a well balanced time
Or was it always this way

[Chorus:]
Hot to cold
Too hot to hold
Hot to cold
Too hot to hold
Too hot to...

Half a degree either way unconcerned
You shed no ray of relief
And plagued by a fear of your high winds of change
Day to night's difference is brief
Erratic shifts in your moods have us all
Under a high pressure sway
Showering us constantly playing your game
We have no choice but to play

[Chorus]
