I wonder where to go from here?
I’m stuck in the atmosphere
What is real, and what’s pretend?
And when the medicine starts setting in
Walls start shaking
Minds start breaking down
And it’s raining outside
It’s pouring when I close my eyes
It’s something you just can’t hide
You gotta feel what’s inside
I’m trapped in my own thoughts
Some that I wish I’d forgot
And after all the demons I’ve fought
I won’t get caught
How much time do you spend
Caught up in the end?
We’re gonna bring it down
Somewhere and somehow
Walls start shaking
Minds start breaking down
And it’s raining outside
It’s pouring when I close my eyes
It’s something you just can’t hide
You gotta feel what’s inside
I’m trapped in my own thoughts
Some that I wish I’d forgot
And after all the demons I’ve fought
I won’t get caught
And it’s raining outside
It’s pouring when I close my eyes
It’s something you just can’t hide
You gotta feel what’s inside
I’m trapped in my own thoughts
Some that I wish I’d forgot
And after all the demons I’ve fought
I won’t get caught

One More Round

And oh baby, I hope you're staring at me
Cause oh baby, you are all that I want to see
Don’t want to let you down
So take my pain away, cause I want you to take me now
Yesterday I could take the pouring rain
But today I just can't stand the pain
Do you feel a lack of control?
There's rust where there once was gold
Now that there's no hand to hold
It's been a long road, and now I know what's bringing you down
But can you go one more round?
Now you're in danger, desire's kicking in
And I'm no stranger, but I can't expect to share your sins
But I'm not your savior, and I don't owe you anything
But I’ll help you along, so you can cure this sting
Yesterday I could take the pouring rain
But today I just can't stand the pain
Do you feel a lack of control?
There's rust where there once was gold
Now that there's no hand to hold
It's been a long road, and now I know what's bringing you down
But can you go one more round?
I know I got it right in here
I’m breaking down and now it’s clear that
I can’t stop, and now I know
That I’ve just gotta let you go
I know I got it right in here
I’m falling down and now it’s clear that
I can’t stop, and now I know
That I’ve just gotta let you go
Do you feel a lack of control?
There's rust where there once was gold
Now that there's no hand to hold
It's been a long road, and now I know what’s bringing you down, but can you go one more round?
Do you feel a lack of control?
There's rust where there once was gold
Now that there's no hand to hold
It's been a long road, and now I know what's bringing you down
But can you go one more round?

Do you hear the trees in the distance?
I want it to change but then I witnessed
If I tried, oh that’d be a sin
And if I could, I’d start back at day 1
and do it all over again
Here breaks the new day
There is nothing left to say
But the ships sinking down
And I’m falling on the ground
And I don’t know how
But I’ve found my way out
In the rain and the fog
Oh where did I go wrong
Over and back again
This is where we begin
Again
The days grow longer throughout the night
Your constantly trying to prove your right
When I was worried, you weren’t concerned
But once again, the tables have turned
You said you’re gonna win
But you won’t, time and time again
But the ships sinking down
And I’m falling on the ground
And I don’t know how
But I’ve found my way out
In the rain and the fog
Oh where did I go wrong
Over and back again
This is where we begin
Again
But the ships sinking down
And I’m falling on the ground
And I don’t know how
But I’ve found my way out
In the rain and the fog
Oh where did I go wrong
Over and back again
This is where we begin
Again
But the ships sinking down
And I’m falling on the ground
And I don’t know how
But I’ve found my way out
In the rain and the fog
Oh where did I go wrong
Over and back again
This is where we begin
Again

Lock Me Up

What’s on your mind?
What’s on your mind?
I don’t even need to think twice
I can see the signs
And I’ll take this to the grind
Everybody say and everybody waves
Lock me up and break one more time
You are young and new to me
But You can’t even breathe the sea
I’m numb When you cast that spell On me
And even when time stand still
You ain’t even got the looks that kill
Oh the blank stares that you give
And I don’t even know how to live
I’m running laps around the town
Until you struck me to the ground
And how can I tell
That you shot me to the bottom of the well
And I’m climbing through the vines
Trying to waste this precious time
And the boys are gonna fight
But they are defeated this time
And it’s Howling through the trees
Their Broke down and fallen to their knees
Lock me
Break me
Cast that spell
On me
The blank stares
You give me
I’m climbing
You shot me
Lock Me
Break Me
Lock me up and throw me to the bottom of the well

Lady of the Night
04:36

Maybe I’m irrational, but I ain’t no fool
Burning down in the sun, she stays cool
She’s coming after me, and it ain’t right
Oh lady of the night
She was something good for me, and now she knows
That she slipped my heart away, going where the wind blows
How could I know the bitter end, was a cold farewell?
Forbidden stories never told, I need to tell
Without a heart,
She lives a double life,
She ruined mine.
I should've
Known from the start
That she pulled me in, just to tear me apart
I’ve seen you walking on the star lit streets
where are you gonna be tonight, who you gonna please?
Does it even make you cry?
do you ever hide?
Is this how you want to spend your life?
Without a heart,
She lives a double life,
She ruined mine.
I should've
Known from the start
That she pulled me in, just to tear me apart
Ain't a thing that could pray for me
I've been trapped for all my life
I fell for femme fatale mistakenly
I curse the lady of the night
Without a heart,
She lives a double life,
She ruined mine.
I should've
Known from the start
She pulled me in, just to tear me apart
Without a heart,
She lives a double life,
She ruined mine.
I should've
Known from the start
That she pulled me in, just to tear me apart

On the Way Back

I want to be a big shot
Living in the spotlight
Dancing all over the town
Addicted to the limelight
I want to be brand new
So I don’t have to put up a fight with you
And who knew?
We just walked into the club
Dead set at a quarter past nine
We’re tearing the house down,
Letting the sparks fly
Would you please hand over the phone?
Cause I want to be know
As the star of the show
I’m down and out but you want me too bad
Your right on top, and I’m so glad
That even if you, you really think you’re all that
You won’t catch me because I’ll come back
Next time when you see me
I’ll be the brand new king
Walking across Central Park
Showered with diamonds and rings
I’m ready to go, so give me the reigns
And I’ll take up the throne
We’re back at it again
Like in the good old days
Running across the land
Watching the years fade away
Would you please wait a sec
I’m not there yet
Get ready for an upset
I’m down and out but you want me too bad
Your right on top, and I’m so glad
That even if you, you really think you’re all that
You won’t catch me because I’ll come back
I’m down and out but you want me too bad
Your right on top, and I’m so glad
That even if you, you really think you’re all that
You won’t catch me because I’ll come back

Homesick

I’m homesick
It’s the best to describe this
And now we are going down in fifths
Would you say it again?
The days turn into years
And I can’t speak any clearer
And I don’t know where to go now
And I’m so far from my hometown
And that song goes something something
And I keep rolling with punches
I just gotta live for today
And as the time keeps slipping away
And oh please don’t let me go, on my own
I need you to know, I don’t want to leave home
Oh it’s been way too fast, where’d the time go?
Even though it’s not meant to last,
I dearly thank you so
Where to next?
Don’t want a life of regret
But I don’t know my own stance
Or who I really am
I’m lost in this unknown town
But the clock keeps spinning around
I don’t know where to begin
It’s because this air is so thin
And don’t overthink everything
Just feel like your living the dream
And just never look back
To the past
Well I’ve fallen off track
And oh please don’t let me go, on my own
I need you to know, I don’t want to leave home
Oh it’s been way too fast, where’d the time go?
Even though it’s not meant to last,
I dearly thank you so
I’m scared
To leave
Don’t want to be set free
you know
I’ll outgrown
But I’m not ready to be on my own
If only I could turn back time
If only I could turn back time
Then I could relive our past once again
And oh please don’t let me go, on my own
I need you to know, I don’t want to leave home
Oh it’s been way too fast, where’d the time go?
Even though it’s not meant to last,
I dearly thank you so
I’m scared
To leave
Don’t want to be set free
you know
I’ll outgrown
But I’m not ready to be on my own

Crashing Waves
07:18

There comes a time
The stars fell out of line
Another day, Another Life
Lost to the fight
And I know
Where to go
To get to the other side
And I know
Where to go
But I’m lost in the sands of time
And I don’t really want to know
That your heart turned into stone
That your lies turned into tears
Why do you live your life in fear?
And we’ll rise again
From the dust and ashes
And that leads to me to land
Where dawn crashes down
And I know
Where to go
To get to the other side
And I know
Where to go
But I’m lost in the sands of time
And I don’t really want to know
That your heart turned into stone
That your lies turned into tears
Why do you live your life in fear?
Time stands still
going in for the kill
It’s not a drill
But oh the thrill
I’ll Scream and shout
but I can’t fight the doubt
And I need you now
To help me find my way out
And oh-e-oh life’s spinning out of control
And oh-e-oh I’m falling back into the hole
And oh-e-oh life’s spinning out of control
And oh-e-oh I can’t take this no more
And oh-e-oh life’s spinning out of control
And oh-e-oh I’m falling back into the hole
And oh-e-oh life’s spinning out of control
And oh-e-oh I can’t take this no more
