Am I Still Your Man?
04:24
|
|||
Verse 1
I don't like to play games
So don't leave me hanging
I'm not trying to wait around
So stop hesitating
What's going on with you?
If you've got something to say
then let's get it over with I haven't got all day
Chorus
Whatever it is I can take it
Don't you worry about my heart breaking
I'd rather know for sure where I stand
So tell me woman, am I still your man?
Verse 2
I'm sick of staying up all night
wondering when you'll get home
I'm tiered of contemplating
why I'm left here on my own
I've got enough to deal with
I don't need this uncertainty
So rip the bandage off or make your love known to me
Chorus
Bridge
Don't lead me astray
I deserve to know what's going on
Chorus

Living In Denial
04:19
|
|||
Verse 1
Let's go out dancing
Let's go down swinging
Let's dance to the beat of our panicked hearts while our ears are ringing
Let's cut a rug
Let's cut our losses
Let's paint the town with the blood of anyone who tries to stop us
Chorus
While you were trying to live a little
I'm trying to die like its going out of style
I've had a taste of the real world, baby
Those who say their loving life are living in denial
Verse 2
Let's start a riot
Let's make a scene
Let's give them a nightmare the like of which they've never dreamed
Let's break the rules
Let's get down
Let's burn this sad excuse for a city to the fucking ground
Chorus
Let's fan the flames
Let's black out the sky
Let's carve our names across the surface of time
Let's make it count
Let's give em what for
Let's trudge to the gates of hell and kick down the devil's door
Chorus

All the World's A Stain
04:49
|
|||
Verse 1
We are made up of the same things
Stardust and ashes
Atoms and DNA
We are all bound to make mistakes
Fear and isolation
Anger and hate
Chorus
Don't be ashamed
We all share the blame
No one is righteous
All the world's a stain
Verse 2
We are all a part of the same cloth
Fibers and threads
Tears and knots
The fabric is blemished and worn
Prices are fraying where others are torn
Chorus
Bridge
And when you die your epitaphs all that remains
What would you have it say?
And when you're buried will you leave a legacy?
And will you be proud of what you leave?
Chorus

Makeup Aisle Disguise
04:16
|
|||
Verse 1
I find it hard to believe
the surface is all we're meant to see
If beauty is only skin deep
I can't imagine what is underneath
Chorus
Something disturbing
Something obscene
What are you hiding?
Its time to come clean
Scratch off some skin
and look down inside
Who do you think you're fooling
with that makeup aisle disguise?
Verse 2
You look so well put together
but you can't keep your guard up forever
I've seen your defenses tremble
More than I care to remember
Chorus
Bridge
It's time to come clean
Chorus

Go It Alone
04:04
|
|||
Verse 1
They make you feel like you need them
Like you're worthless by yourself
But they don't give a damn about you
If you won't play along they'll find somebody else
Chorus
So go it alone
No matter what your friends say, honey
You'll be fine on your own
Verse 2
They keep you around for their own selfish reasons
You represent what they resent
The mistakes you've made are held against you
Who needs enemies when you have them?
Chorus x2
Verse 3
You got out from underneath them
All they did was keep you down
If you should ind them crawling back to you
Promise me you'll stand your ground
and tell them where to go
Chorus x4

Verse 1
When you are at the end of your rope I won't let you swing
If your heart is heavy in your chest I will be your unburdening
When you can't walk another step I will carry you
If the sky is filled with darkness my love will shine through
Chorus
Don't concern yourself with the black of night
Be not afraid
I'll be the moon that brings you light
Verse 2
When the world shows it's pointed teeth I will file them down
If you can't tread water any longer I won't let you drown
When you're luck seems to have run out I will be your charm
If the weight of the world is upon you there's no cause for alarm
Chorus
Verse 3
When you have lost your way I will take your hand
If you have no more strength I will help you stand
When you're not sure where to turn know that I am here
If you can't see the road any longer you can let me steer
Chorus

Honest Man
05:32
|
|||
Verse 1
Life is a trial and I've taken the stand
Don't always know what I'm doing
But I know I'm doing all I can
Times are hard
There are no safe bets
I've got a lot to lose
So I'm not giving up yet
Chorus
I'm an honest man doing all I can
Verse 2
Life is a maze
That's a matter of fact
I found my own way, honey
So what you think about that?
I walked for days and I got lost inside
But I found my way out
Because they couldn't break my stride
Chorus
Verse 3
I may be worn down
But I'm here to stay
Keep throwing punches
'Cause I could do this all day
I'm willing to fight
and I'm willing to die
You wouldn't understand
So I won't waste my time
Chorus

Time Is Not On My Side
04:57
|
|||
Verse 1
"Time is a face on the water" - Stephen King
The day's peel away at an alarming rate
The clock looks on blindly while its hands run to riot across its face
Time is not on my side
Chorus
Daylight to midnight in the blink of an eye
Before we've even found sleep the sun is returned to the sky
Daylight to midnight
The passage becomes a slide
and we are all at its mercy
Time is not on my side
Verse 2
Yesterday happened moments ago
And tomorrow has already begun to fade
If this is the present then the future is silent and cares nothing for fate
Time is not on my side
Chorus
Bridge

Nothing More To Say
04:50
|
|||
Verse 1
We never talk anymore
We've forgotten how to speak
It's been so long since we've used our words
Our tongues are machines
and they've begun to rust
Conversation's a dead language
We've neglected dialogue to the point of secrecy
Chorus
Sentences sieze in our throats
We can't say anything meaningful or otherwise
We've lost our voices along with our way
It's a good thing we have nothing more to say
Verse 2
We thought silence was gold
But it's a strange currency
One that doesn't hold it's worth
We've censored ourselves
for the sake of keeping the peace
But even silence can lead to war
Complacence can be just as dangerous as laying it on the line
Chorus
Bridge
Our mouths are wired shut but its all voluntary
We choose to shut ourselves up
We've forsaken our vocabulary
Chorus

What Will You Do For Me?
04:00
|
|||
Verse 1
I found you on the side of the highway
You were thumbing rides trying to get to New Orleans
You were nobodies fool, baby
So you know nobody rides for free
Chorus
What will you do for me?
How far are you willing to go to get to where you're going?
You know nobody rides for free
So what will you do for me?
Verse 2
I can take you to the next town over
Or I can take you all the way
You asked me what I wanted
But you knew what I was gonna say
Chorus
Bridge
We were breaking laws
I was well over the legal limit
I didn't know your name
I'm not surprised you didn't offer it
Chorus

Peak Capacity
05:04
|
|||
Verse 1
Looking for answers leads to more questions, better left unanswered
The more I know the less I care to understand
It begs the question, if ignorance is bliss what good in cognizance
I renounce awareness in the name os sanity
Chorus
I don't want to know
I don't want to see
I'll take disregard over clarity
I don't want to hear
I don't want to speak
Information is overrated
I've reached my peak capacity
Verse 2
There was a time I wanted truth now I've changed my mind
The truth is I just want to be lied to
I've lost touch with social norms and poilitics
If the world goes to hell it isn't phasing me
Chorus
Bridge
I admire your certainty
But how can you be sure of anything
in this drain of opinions you're circling
This isn't reality
It's only what can be seen
from the view you've been conditioned to believe
Chorus
