  • Come Undone

    Come Undone


    With every word you’ve never said
    And every dream lost in your head
    It’s come undone

    With every smile you haven’t seen
    And all the things you’ve never been
    It’s come undone

    So you walk downtown with you head in the clouds
    as you break everything you see
    And you wait too long as you fill your heart with ache
    And you know it’s wrong but you’re feeling too strong
    with the smell of your burning cage
    It’s come undone
    It’s come undone

    With every tale lost in your look
    With every hand you never took
    It’s come undone

    With every life you’ve never lived
    And every day lost in the drift
    It’s come undone

  • World Gone Wild

    World Gone Wild


    Don’t wanna be
    Like everybody you see
    But you gotta run
    Just to have some fun
    if you want to fly
    You play the music high
    And neon cry
    If you walk outside
    You’ll see a world gone wild (x4)

    Down forgetting lane
    Was a man insane
    And he threw everything you do
    through a window pane
    But you’re holding on
    Don’t wanna do no wrong
    You feel that song
    As you walk outside
    Into a world gone wild (x5)

    No more fear you want it back (x4)
    Just let go
    And break that flow
    Don’t you know
    As you walk outside
    You’ll see a world gone wild (x5)

    Don’t wanna be
    Like everybody you see
    You’re gonna find
    That neon high
    So you take that ride
    And let things fly
    As tears run dry
    I see you walk outside
    Into a world gone wild (x5)

  • Shake Me

    Shake Me


    Baby too tired of waiting
    Talking so you can see
    But you just take it easy
    Is this the best you’ll ever be
    ever be

    And Johnnys perfecting lonely
    He’s taking that walk outside
    His head’s just spinning slowly
    As his mouth is saying it’s allright
    It’s allright

    Somebody wake me!
    Somebody please!
    Somebody shake me!
    I am what I don’t wanna be!

    Taking that ride to sunset
    There’s nothing that you haven’t seen
    But a friendly well-worn circle
    Is everywhere you’ve ever been
    Ever been

  • Immaculate Stain

    Immaculate Stain


    Out of the rain
    We’re gonna set this right
    I was tame
    You didn’t win no fight
    And then you come around
    With songs lost in your eyes
    And I can feel you babe
    But I’m much too old to try
    So I just say..

    Hold on, Hold on / But I don’t feel
    Come on, Come on / And nothing’s real
    Hold on, Hold on
    Cause the summertimes you bring
    Are just platitudes I sing
    You’re my immaculate stain
    The so comfortable pain

    Under the skin
    I guess our hearts are guilt free
    And honestly
    You know this better than me
    But what we broke away
    More wrongs could never right
    You know I love you babe
    But I just cant seem to hide
    So I just say..

    C
    We just can’t win

    Hold on, Hold on / Cause I don’t feel
    Come on, Come on / Cause nothing’s real
    Hold on, Hold on
    And the summertimes you bring
    Are just platitudes I sing
    You’re my immaculate stain
    The so comfortable pain
    My oldest pain
    My falling rain
    Cause the summertimes you bring
    Are just platitudes I sing
    You’re my immaculate stain

  • It’s Your Time

    It’s Your Time


    On a misty morning
    On a summer day
    Life takes a turning
    Love fades away
    On your darkened table
    Lies a salty tear
    Don’t you remember
    Not to live in fear
    So hear me say

    Hey Babe it’s your time
    I know you’ll be fine
    Hey Love follows you
    The hope you left behind – is coming true

    You think you know this
    Not to trust again
    You can’t forget your
    Moments in the rain
    But once in a lifetime
    There comes a change
    You can face it darling
    Or run away
    So hear me say

    From the sunshine on the sea
    From the love in you and me
    All we can, All I am
    It’s just fine
    In the love we knew before
    In a heart that asks for more
    You will find love in time
    You get it all
    Though you don’t believe it’s here now

    On a misty morning
    In the summer night
    You should remember
    This is not your fight
    All the bad decisions
    All the crazy years
    They wont deceive you
    If you trust me dear

  • Morning Light

    Morning Light


    Baby if you wanna dance
    Don’t just stand there, don’t be too nice
    Give me some spite
    Baby if you wanna please
    Don’t you please me
    Don’t you please me
    Give me your mind

    Take me high
    You know I want what you’ve got to give tonight
    Take me high
    I just know that we got to live and I’ve
    Only got one night
    We’ve only got one night
    ’till morning light

    Baby when you’re next to me
    Don’t just tell me what you think I want
    There’s no need to play me
    Cause baby when you start to move
    My senses leave me
    They just leave me
    Gotta have you right here

    Hey there’s so much more that you can give
    Let’s try to have some fun, we’ve got to live
    I just wanna let you know
    You just gotta let it show
    And then we’ll
    make each other ride the morning glow
    So let’s go

  • Face the Music

    Face the Music


    Somebody told me
    That I should get away
    Somebody broke me
    Like it was nothing
    But I say
    We’re just lost in a bad dream
    You can
    Take a beatin’ and still just walk away
    You might feel that your heart breaks
    But if you lose it you just might never find it again
    When you know you have to face the music guess you better learn to dance

    Somebody take away
    All these wasted years
    Somebody make me stay
    I’m dying here
    Cause I can
    Take a dive at the deep end
    But I can’t
    Climb a single hill
    I should leave you tonight now baby
    But my heart wont keep me still
    When you know you have to face the music guess you better learn to dance

    Once the faith is gone
    There is no compromise
    Your direction’s all that
    Fills the void inside
    Better you call
    Better you fall
    Cause you won’t break the second time
    Sweet dream of mine
