Why, you wanna tell me how to live my life?
Who, are you to tell me if it's black or white? Mama, can you hear me? Try to understand. Is innocence the difference between a boy and a man? My daddy lived the lie, that's just the price that he paid Sacrificed his life, just slavin' away. Ohhh, if there's one thing I hang onto, That gets me through the night. I ain't gonna do what I don't want to, I'm gonna live my life. Shining like a diamond, rolling with the dice, Standing on the ledge, I show the wind how to fly. When the world gets in my face, I say, Have A Nice Day. Have A Nice Day Take a look around you; nothing's what it seems We're living in the broken home of hopes and dreams, Let me be the first to shake a helping hand. Anybody brave enough to take a stand, I've knocked on every door, on every dead end street, Looking for forgiveness, what's left to believe? Ohhh, if there's one thing I hang onto, That gets me through the night. I ain't gonna do what I don't want to, I'm gonna live my life. Shining like a diamond, rolling with the dice, Standing on the ledge, I show the wind how to fly. When the world gets in my face, I say, Have A Nice Day. Have A Nice Day. [Guitar Solo] Ohhh, if there's one thing I hang onto, That gets me through the night. I ain't gonna do what I don't want to, I'm gonna live my life. Shining like a diamond, rolling with the dice, Standing on the ledge, I show the wind how to fly. When the world gets in my face, I say, Have A Nice Day. Have A Nice Day. Have A Nice Day. Have A Nice Day. Have A Nice Day. When The world keeps trying, to drag me down, I gotta raise my hands, I'm gonna stand my ground. Well I say, Have A Nice Day. Have A Nice Day Have A Nice Day |

I spent twenty years tryin' to get out of this place
I was looking for something I couldn't replace I was running away from the only thing I've ever known And like a blind dog without a bone I was a gypsy lost in the twilight zone I hijacked a rainbow and crashed into a pot of gold I've been there, done that, I ain't looking back The seeds I've sown, saving dimes, spending too much time on the telephone Who says you can't go home? Who says you can't go home? There's only one place that call me one of their own Just a hometown boy, born a rollin' stone Who says you can't go home? Who says you can't go back? Been all around the world and as a matter of fact There's only one place left I wanna go Who says you can't go home? It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright I went as far as I could, I tried to find a new face There isn't one of these lines that I would erase I left a million miles of memories on that road And every step I take, I know that I'm not alone You take the home from the boy, but not the boy from his home These are my streets, the only life I've ever known, Who says you can't go home? Who says you can't go home? There's only one place that call me one of their own Just a hometown boy, born a rollin' stone Who says you can't go home? Who says you can't go back? Been all around the world and as a matter of fact There's only one place left I wanna go Who says you can't go home? It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright Who says you can't go home? It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright Who says you can't go home? I've been there, done that, I ain't looking back It's been a long, long road, feels like I've never left That's how the story goes It doesn't matter where you are, doesn't matter where you go If it's a million miles away or just a mile up the road Take it in, take it with you when you go Who says you can't go home? Who says you can't go back? Been all around the world and as a matter of fact There's only one place left I wanna go Who says you can't go home? It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright Who says you can't go home? It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright Who says you can't go home? It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright Who says you can't go home? |

Come see a living, breathing spectacle
Only seen right here It's your last chance in this lifetime The line forms to the rear You won't believe your eyes Your eyes will not believe youre ears Get your money out, get ready Step right up, yeah you, come here You ain't seen nothing like him Teh last one of the breed You better hold on to your honey Honeys, don't forget to breathe Enter at your own risk, mister It might change the way you think There's no dancers, there's no diamonds No this boy he don't lip-synch [Chorus:] Here's the last man standing Step right up, he's the real thing The last chance of a lifetime Come and see, hear, feel... the real thing See those real live calloused fingers Wrapped around those guitar strings Kiss the lips where hurt has lingered It breaks the hart to hear him sing Thesongs were more than music They were pictures from the soul Se keep your pseudo-punk, hip-hop, pop-rock junk And your digital downloads [Chorus] Take your seats now, folks. It's showtime Hey, Patrick - hit the lights There's something in the air There's magic in the night Now here's the band, they really play I'll count the first one in I don't know where it's going Well all know where it's been [Chorus] The last man standing Step right up, he's the real thing The last chance of a lifetime Come see, hear, feel... the real thing. coolbeauty |

I have walked all alone on these streets I call home Streets of hope, streets of fear Through the sidewalk cracks, time disappears I was lost on my knees only if hugged the field As I chocked back to tears, there's a silent scream no one could hear So far away from everything, you know it's true Something inside that makes you do what you got to do Ring the bells, ring them loud Let them ring here and now Just reach out and ring the bells of freedom When your world's crashing down like you've lost every round Stand the ground And ring the bells of freedom Up the steps of the church, through the fields in the dirt In the dark I have seen that the sun still shines for the one who believe So far away, so full of doubt You needed proof Just close your eyes and hear the sound inside of you Taken from Ring the bells, ring them loud Let them ring here and now Just reach out and ring the bells of freedom When your world's crashing down like you've lost every round Stand the ground And ring the bells of freedom [Solo] Ring the bells, ring them loud Let'em ring here and now Just reach out and ring the bells of freedom When your world's crashing down like you've lost every round Stand the ground And ring the bells of freedom Ring the bells, ring them loud Let them ring here and now |

How you spend your minutes are what matters All tomorrows come from yesterdays When you're feeling broken, bruised and sometimes shattered Blow out the candles on the cake Like everything's a big mistake It seems you always wait for life to happen And your last buck can't buy a lucky break If all we've got is us then life's worth living And if you're in, you know I'm in I'm ready and I'm willing I am When you think that no one needs you, sees you or believes you No one's there to understand I am I'll be there to be that someone When you think that no one is there to hold your hand I am We're just who we are, there's no pretending It takes a while to learn to live in your own skin Say a prayer that we might find our happy ending And if you're in you know I'm in I'm ready and I'm willing Chorus: I am When you think that no one needs you, sees you or believes you No one's there to understand I am I'll be there to be that someone When you think that no one is there to hold your hand I am I ain't got no halo hanging over my head I ain't gonna judge you, I'm just here to love you I am, I am Chorus: I am When you think that no one needs you, sees you or believes you No one's there to understand I am I'll be there to be that someone When you think that no one is there to hold your hand I am When you think that no one needs you, sees you or believes you No one's there to understand I am I'll be there to be that someone When you think that no one is there to hold your hand I am I am I am |

You can take back all your secrets
We'll divide up all the lies Keep all the pictures in their frames Just cut me out, yeah, I'll be fine Sell the neighbors all my feelings Go on give away my pride It's hard to laugh and cry, live and die every night Keep your rolodex of friends And all the remnants can be mind I guess there'll be no happy endings When 'once upon' is doing time There's a different kind of meaning now To livin' on a prayer Some don't seem to notice And the rest don't seem to care I tell myself I (feel no pain) But I'm feeling the pain (walk away) Can't walk away I'm hanging on the ropes of hope It's getting hard to cope you know When you're the needle running through my veins I've changed my name to novocaine You put my favorite belongings in a box in the garage (let's get this straight) You burned my favorite sweats from high school Tried to sell my muscle car (that's not OK) You're mother's gonna visit for a couple months this year They say you do the crime, you do the time It's all so clear I tell my self I (feel no pain) But I'm feeling the paint (walk away) Can't walk away I'm hanging on the ropes of hope It's getting hard to cope you know When you're the needle that's running through my veins I've changed my name to novacaine (feel no pain) Novacaine Well things ain't what they used to be It's a sleepless, self-help century I'm up to here with Dr. Phil and the modern man in me? |

Yesterday’s a memory,
Another page of history, You sell yourself on hopes and dreams That leaves you feeling sideways. Tripping over my own feet, Trying to walk to my own beat, Another car out on the street trying to find the Highway Yeah, Are you going my way? This is the story of my life And I write it everyday. I know it isn’t black and white And it’s anything but grey. I know that no I’m not alright, but I feel ok cos Anything can, everything can happen That’s the story of my life I gonna write the melody That’s gonna make history, And when I paint my masterpiece I swear I’ll show you first. There just ain’t a way to see who and why or what will be Till now is then It’s a mystery, it’s a blessing and a curse Or something worse. This is the story of my life And I write it everyday. I know it isn’t black and white And it’s anything but grey. I know that no I’m not alright, but I feel ok cos Anything can, everything can I been thinking and baby You can help me write the story of my life What do you say? This is the story of my life And I write it everyday, And I hope you by my side when I’m writing the last page. This is the story of my life And I write it everyday. I know it isn’t black and white And it’s anything but grey. I know that no I’m not alright, but I feel ok cos Anything can, everything can, I been thinking baby we can… This is the story of my life, The story of my life, The story of my life, This is the story of my life, The story of my life, This is the story of my life. |

A friend of a friend needed a favor Life was just what happened while we were busy making plans We never saw nothing, there was a run-in .9 millimeter steel was coming for the windshield of that Oldsmobile As the cop said, "Show your hands!" I got a half tank of gas and if we run all the lights We'll slip across the border on the wrong side of right And just like Butch and Sundance we'll ride until the dawn Sipping whiskey, singing cowboy songs On the Right Side of Wrong |

She wakes up when I sleep To talk to ghosts like in the movies If you don't follow what I mean I sure don't mean to be confusing They say when she laughs she wants to cry She'll draw a crowd then try to hide Don't know if it's her or just my mind I'm losing Nobody knows a wildflower still grows By the side of the road And she don't need to need like the roses Wildflower That girl's sure put a spell on me Yeah, her voodoos hidden right behind her pocket If she's fire, I'm gasoline Yeah, we fight a lot but neither wants to stop it Well, she'll tell you she's an only child until you meet her brothers Swear she's never met the man she couldn't make into a lover [Chorus] Nobody knows a wildflower still grows By the side of the road And she don't need to need like the roses She's at home with the weeds And just as free as the night breeze She's got the cool of a shade tree She's growin' on me and I can't live with out her Yesterday's a memory Tomorrow's accessory That's her favorite quote about regret Well, she'll tell you about her pedigree With a sailor's mouth he'd have left at sea and it ain't over yet [Chorus] Nobody knows [x3] That's right She wakes up when I sleep To talk to ghosts like in the movies |

Album: Have A Nice Day
Track: LAST CIGARETTE Regrets are all you left on your lipstick stains Take a picture of our past there in that ashtray We had our fun, I used to light your flame Like the dancing smoke that rose we tried to find our way No one told me, she told me Your love's like one last cigarette Last cigarette, I will savor it The last cigarette Take it in and hold your breath, hope it never ends But when it's gone, it's gone The last cigarette Just to breathe reminds me of what used to be The smoke's the ghost that keeps you close when I can't sleep Don't ask the past to last; it's about to change The memories don't answer when I call your name No one told me, she told me Your love's like one last cigarette Last cigarette, I will savor it The last cigarette Take it in and hold your breath, hope it never ends But when it's gone, it's gone One last cigarette, last cigarette One I can't forget, the last cigarette Right there at my fingertips, I got your taste still on my lips Right or wrong You're still gone, gone, gone The last cigarette No one told me, she told me You always lose the girl in a Brian Wilson world Your love's like one last cigarette Last cigarette, I will savor it The last cigarette Take it in and hold your breath, hope it never ends But when it's gone, it's gone One last cigarette, last cigarette One I can't forget, the last cigarette Right there at my fingertips, I got your taste still on my lips Right or wrong You're still gone, gone, gone |

It's pretty cold for late September
And autumn wind is creepin' in The summer sun packed up it's long gone There's a whole lot of leavin' goin' on Yeah! I bet it's warm in California I think it's time to hit the road I just might call that plain of gypsies Whose searching for our pot of gold Seems like lately there's a whole lot of leavin' goin' on I close my eyes and picture youre hand in mine I still hear your voice that takes me back to that time Where I can find a reason to be strong Seems like lately there's a whole lot of leavin' goin' on Close the window draw the curtains You ain't the only one here hurt No one's right no one's wrong Lately there's a whole lot of leavin' goin' on I close my eyes and picture youre hand in mine I still hear your voice that takes me back to that time Where I can find a reason to be strong Seems like lately there's a whole lot of leavin' goin' on You used to live to say you love me Now you got one foot out the door It's then you turn around and ask me Do we got it anymore I close my eyes and picture youre hand in mine I still hear your voice that takes me back to that time Where I need find a reason to be strong I close my eyes and picture youre hand in mine Yeah I hold the line you'll never hear me say goodbye So pretty thing let the years be strong Seems like lately there's a whole lot of leavin' goin' on I'l come back for you baby |

In my rearview mirror
My life is getting clearer The sunset sighs and slowly disappears These trinkets once were treasure Life changes like the weather You grow up, grow old or hit the road 'round here So I drive, watching white lines passing by With my plastic dashboard Jesus, waiting there to greet us Hey, hey, I finally found my way Say goodbye to yesterday Hit the gas there ain't no brakes on the lost highway Yeah I'm busting loose, I'm letting go Out on this open road It's independence day on this lost highway I don't know where I'm going But I know where I've been Now I'm afraid of going back again So I drive, years and miles are flying by And waiting there to great us Is my plastic dashboard Jesus Oh patron saint of lonely souls To tell this boy which way to go Guide the car, you got the keys Farewell to mediocrity Kicking off the cruise-control And turning up the radio Got just enough religion And a half tank of gas come on, let's go I finally found my way Say goodbye to yesterday Hit the gas there ain't no brakes on the lost highway Yeah I'm busting loose, I'm letting go Out on this open road It's independence day on this lost highway |

Hey God I'm just a little man
got a wife and family But I almost lost the house I bought into the dream We're barely holdin' on when I'm in way to deep We're two paychecks away from living out on the streets She's a workin' single mom like a Saint she doesn't complain She never says a word but she thinks that she's to blame Her son just got convicted he blew some punk away She did her best to raise him but the world got in the way Hey God Tell me what the hell is going on Seems like all the good shits gone It keeps on getting harder hanging on Hey God there's nights you know I want to scream These days you've even harder to believe I know how busy you must be but Hey God Do you ever think about me Born into the ghetto in 1991 just a happy child Playing beneath the summer sun A vacant lots' his playground by 12 he's got a gun The odds are bet against him junior don't make 21 Hey God Tell me what the hell is going on Seems like all the good shits gone It keeps on getting harder hangin' on Hey God there's nights you know I want to scream These days you've even harder to believe I know how busy you must be but Hey God Do you ever think about me I'd get down on my knees I'm going to try this thing you way Seen a dying man too proud to beg spit on his own grave Was he too gone to save Did you even know his name Are you the one to blame I got something to say Hey God Tell me what the hell is going on Seems like all the good shits gone It keeps on getting harder hangin' on But Hey God there's nights you know I want to scream These days you've even harder to believe I know how busy you must be but Hey God Do you ever think about me Do you ever think about me Hey God Hey God think about me Do you ever think about me Hey God Hey God think about me |

Happiness it's been
no friend to me But forever after ain't what it's all cracked up to be Yeah I had a taste you were my fantasy But I lost my faith when I hit reality I don't need no Guru to tell me what to do When your feeling like a headline on Yesterday's news Come on come on come on Give me something for the pain Give me something for the blues Give me something for the pain when I feel I've been danglin' from a hang man's noose Give me something for the rain Give me something I can use To get me through the night Make me feel all right Something like you Loneliness has yes found a home in me My suitcase and guitar are my only family I've tried to need someone like they needed me I opened up my heart but all I did was bleed I don't need no lover just to get screwed They don't make a bandage that's going to cover my bruise Come on come on come on Give me something for the pain Give me something for the blues Give me something for the pain when I feel I've been danglin' from a hang man's noose Give me something for the rain Give me something I can use To get me through the night Make me feel all right Something like you Pull me under Run through my veins To a place Where I feel no pain Be the pillow under my head Cover me when I'm in your bed Take me higher than I've ever been Take me down and back again Come to me be my disguise Open your coat let me crawl inside Come on come on come on Come on come on come on Give me something for the pain Give me something for the blues Give me something for the pain when I feel I've been danglin' from a hang man's noose Give me something for the rain Give me something I can use To get me through the night Make me feel all right Something like you Give me something for the pain Give me something for the blues Give me something for the pain when I feel I've been danglin' from a hang man's noose Give me something for the rain Give me something I can use To get me through the night Make me feel all right Something like you Come on come on Come on come on Come on come on Come on come on Come on come on Give me Give me something for the pain Give me Give me something for the blues Give me Give me something for the pain baby Give me |

just a face in the crowd Trying to keep myself out of the rain Saw a vagabond king wear a styrofoam crown Wondered if I might end up the same There's a man out on the corner Singing old songs about change Everybody got their cross to bare these days She came looking for some shelter with a suitcase full of dreams To a motel room on the boulevard Guess she's trying to be James Dean She's seen all the disciples and all the wanna be's No one wants to be themselves these days Still there's nothing to hold on to but these days These days the stars seem out of reach These days there ain't a ladder on these streets These days are fast love don't last in this graceless age There ain't nobody left but us these days Jimmy shoes busted both his legs trying to learn to fly From a second story window he just jumped and closed his eyes His momma said he was crazy he said momma I've got to try Don't you know that all my heroes died And I guess I'd rather die than fade away These days the stars seem out of reach But these days there ain't a ladder on these streets These days are fast love don't lasts in this graceless age Even innocence has caught the morning train And there ain't nobody left but us these days I know Rome's still burning Though the times have changed This world keepd turning round and round and round and round These days These days the stars seem out of reach But these days there ain't a ladder on these streets These days are fast love don't lasts in this graceless age Even innocence has caught the morning train These days the stars seem out of reach These days there ain't a ladder on these streets These days are fast nothing lasts There ain't no time to waste There ain't nobody left to take the blame There ain't nobody left but us these days There ain't nobody left but us these days |

I've been trying to find the meaning, so I can write it down
Staring out the window, it's such a long way down I'd like to jump, but I'm afraid to hit the ground I can't write a love song the way I feel today I can't sing no song of hope, I got nothing to say Life is feeling kind of strange, since you went away I sing this song to wherever you are, As my guitar lies bleeding in my arms I'm tired of watching TV, it makes me want to scream Outside the world is burning, man it's so hard to believe Each day you know you're dying from the cradle to the grave I get so numb sometimes, that I can't feel the pain I can't write a love song the way I feel today I can't sing no song of hope, I got nothing to say Life is feeling kind of strange, since you went away I sing this song to wherever you are, As my guitar lies bleeding in my arms Staring at the paper, I don't know what to write I'll have my last cigarette-well, turn out the lights Maybe tomorrow I'll feel a different way But here is my delusion, I don't know what to say I can't write a love song the way I feel today I can't sing no song of hope, I got nothing to say And I can't fight the feelings, that are burning in my veins I send this song to wherever you are, As my guitar lies bleeding I can't write a love song the way I feel today I can't sing no song of hope, There's no one left to save And I can't fight the feelings, buried in my brains I send this song to wherever you are, As my guitar lies bleeding in my arms As my guitar lies bleeding in my arms As my guitar lies bleeding in my arms |

It ain't no fun lying down to sleep
and there ain't no secrets left for me to keep I wish the stars up in the sky would all just call in sick and the clouds would take the moon out on some one-way trip I drove all night down streets that wouldn't bend but somehow they drove me back here once again to the place I lost at love, and the place I lost my soul I wish I'd just burn downthis place that we called home It would all have been so easy if you'd only made me cry and told me how you're leaving me to some organ grinder's lullaby It' hard, so hard - It's tearing out my heart It's hard letting you go Now the sky, it shines a differentkind of blue and the Neighbor's dog don't bark like he used to Well - me, these days, I just miss you - It's the night that I go insane Unless you're coming back, For me, that's one thing I know that won't change It' hard, so hard - It's tearing out my heart It's hard letting you go Now some tarot card shark said I'll draw you a heart and we'll find you somebody else new But I've made my last trip to those carival lips, when I bet all that I had on you It's hard, it's hard, it's hard, so hard it's hard letting you go It's hard, so hard, it's tearing out my heart But it's hard letting you go |

Kinda always like it used to be Sippin' wine, killing time Trying to solve life's mysteries How's your life, it's been a while God it's good to see you smile I see you reaching for your keys Looking for a reason not to leave If you don't know if you should stay If you don't say what's on your mind Baby just breathe There's nowhere else tonight we should be You wanna make a memory? I dug up this old photograph Look at all that hair we had. It's bittersweet to hear you laugh Your phone is ringing I don't wanna ask If you go now, I'll understand If you stay, hey, I've got a plan We're gonna make a memory You wanna steal a piece of time You can sing the melody to me And I can write a couple of lines You wanna make a memory? If you don't know if you should stay And you don't say what's on your mind Baby just breathe There's nowhere else tonight we should be We Should be You wanna make a memory You wanna steal a piece of time You can sing the melody to me And I can write a couple of lines You wanna make a memory?

CHORUS: On any other day, I′ve been blue, I was cryin′, I could tell the world, ′At least I′m tryin′, The clouds are breakin′, The sun is shinin′ new for me and you.

Long slow drive down an old dirt road
You've got your hand out the window, listening to the radio That's where I wanna be... On an old park bench in the middle of December Cold hard rain fallin', can't find no cover That would be alright with me... Hard days, good times, blue skies, dark nights Baby, I want you to take me ... wherever you're going to Maybe say that you'll save me ... a seat next to you In the corner booth of a downtown bar, with your head on my shoulder Smokin' on a cheap cigar...that would be alright with me In the back row of a movie or a cross-town train I wanna hear your voice whispering my name...that's where I wanna be Hard days, good times, blue skies, dark nights Baby, say that you'll take me ... wherever you're going to Maybe say that you'll save me ... a seat next to you Life is like a ferris wheel, spinnin' around When you get to the top it's hard to look down Just hang on ... we'll make it through Save me ... a seat next to you When you get to the gates and the angels sing Go to that place where the church bells ring You know I'll come runnin' ... runnin' to find you Baby, say that you'll take me ... wherever you're going to Maybe I want you to save me ... a seat next to you A seat next to you A seat ... next to you A seat ... next to you |

It might be hard to be lovers
But it's harder to be friends Baby pull down the covers It's time you let me in Maybe light a couple candles I'll just go ahead and lock the door If you'll just talk to me baby Till we ain't strangers anymore Lay your head on my pillow I'll sit beside you on the bed Don't you think it's time to say Some things we haven't said It ain't too late to get back to that place Back to the way, we thought it was before Why don't you look at me Till we ain't strangers anymore Sometimes it's hard to love me Sometimes it's hard to love you too I know it's hard believing That love can pull us through It would be so easy to live your life With one foot out the door Just hold me baby Till we ain't strangers anymore (Solo) It's hard to find forgiveness When we just turn out the lights It's hard to say you're sorry When we can't tell wrong from right It would be so easy to spend your whole damn life Just keeping score So let's get down to it baby There ain't no need to lie Tell me who you think you see When you look into my eyes Let's put our two hearts back together And we'll leave the broken pieces on the floor Make love with me baby Till we ain't strangers anymore We're not strangers anymore |

These days, its hard to have a heart
It doesn't matter where you come from, or who you think you are These days, it's hard just fitting in Why does someone have to lose, for someone else to win We're all looking for forgiveness, and someone we can trust You can wrap your arms around the world It all comes down to us This is the last night, you'll have to be alone I'll be standing right beside you, you can't make it on your own So walk with me, please, help me to be strong I'll be the shoulder you can lean on, when everybody's gone This is the last night, you'll have to be alone I know, you, heard it all before There's nothing worst than living less When you yearn for something more Makes no sense, its hard to understand When there's something that should fill you up Keeps slipping through your hands We're all looking for answers We're all down here on our knees All anybody really wants, is something to believe Enough is enough, I can't take any more But I'm standing on your front porch Kicking down your door This is the last night This is the last night |

I've seen my heart of darkness
Let's just say I crossed over that line Held hands with the hopeless In too deep on that ride went around one more time When you're standing on the edge you don't look down Til you're ready and willing to fly Now I'm one step closer With my arms open wide here I'm one step closer And I'm willing to try this time I hitched a ride with forgiveness In that river of emotion I went down a third time I spent the night with the living Took a chance looked inside didn't know who I'd find Standing on the corner of that lone goodbye All alone, it's there I made up my mind Yeah I'm one step closer With my arms open wide here I'm one step closer And I'm willing to try I'm sick of giving up Ooh, with a little luck I'm gonna get out of here When you're standing on the edge don't look down Til you're ready and willing to fly I'm one step closer With my arms open wide here I'm one step closer And I'm willing to try this time |

Kinda always like it used to be Sippin' wine, killing time Trying to solve life's mysteries How's your life, it's been a while God it's good to see you smile I see you reaching for your keys Looking for a reason not to leave If you don't know if you should stay If you don't say what's on your mind Baby just breathe There's nowhere else tonight we should be You wanna make a memory? I dug up this old photograph Look at all that hair we had. It's bittersweet to hear you laugh Your phone is ringing I don't wanna ask If you go now, I'll understand If you stay, hey, I've got a plan We're gonna make a memory You wanna steal a piece of time You can sing the melody to me And I can write a couple of lines You wanna make a memory?

Everyday it seems we're wasting away Another place where the faces are so cold I'd drive all night just to get back home [Chorus:] I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride I'm wanted dead or alive Wanted dead or alive Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it's not for days And the people I meet always go their separate ways Sometimes you tell the day By the bottle that you drink And times when you're alone all you do is think [Chorus] I walk these streets, a loaded six string on my back I play for keeps, 'cause I might not make it back I been everywhere, and I'm standing tall I've seen a million faces an I've rocked them all I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride I'm wanted dead or alive I'm a cowboy, I got the night on my side I'm wanted dead or alive And I ride, dead or alive I still drive, dead or alive Dead or alive [x4] |

Hey God, I'm just a little man got a wife and family
But I almost lost the house, yeah I bought into the dream We're barely holding on when I'm in way too deep We're two paychecks away from living out on the streets She's a workin' single mom, like a saint she don't complain She never says a word, but she thinks that she's to blame Her son just got convicted, he blew some punk away She did her best to raise him, but the world got in the way Chorus: Hey God - tell me what the hell is going on Seems like all the good shit's gone It keeps on getting harder hanging on Hey God, there's nights you know I want to scream These days you're even harder to believe I know how busy you must be, but Hey God.... Do you ever think about me Born into the ghetto in 1991, just a happy child Playing beneath the summer sun A vacant lot's his playground, by 12 he's got a gun The odds are bet against him, junior don't make 21 Chorus I'd get down on my knees, I'm going to try this thing your way Seen a dying man too proud to beg spit on his own grave Was he too gone to save? Did you even know his name? Are you the one to blame, I got something to say |

Happiness it's been no friend to me
But forever after ain't What it's all cracked up to be Yeah I had a taste You were my fantasy But I almost lost my faith When I hit reality I don't need no guru To tell me what to do When your feeling like a headline On yesterday's news Chorus: Come on come on come on Give me something for the pain Give me something for the blues Give me something for the pain When I feel I've been danglin' On a hangman's noose Give me something for the pain Give me something I can use To get me through the night Make me feel all right something like you Come on come on come on Loneliness has found a home in me My suitcase and guitar Are my only family I've tried to need someone Like they needed me Well I opened up my heart But all I did was bleed I don't need no lover Just to get screwed Oh yeah they don't make a bandage That's going to cover my bruis Chorus (Help I'm falling) Pull me under Run through my veins To a place Where I feel no pain (Night is calling) Be the pillow under my head Give me cover when I'm in your bed (Feels like I'm flying) Take me higher than I've never been Take me down and back again (Christ I'm dying) Come to be my disguise Open your cool let me crawl inside Come on come on come on Chorus Come on come on come on Give me something for the pain Give me something for the blues Give me something for the pain |

I was walking around, just a face in the crowd
Trying to keep myself out of the rain Saw a vagabond king wear a styrofoam crown Wondered if I might end up the same There's a man out on the corner Singing old songs about change Everybody got their cross to bare, these days She came looking for some shelter with a suitcase full of dreams To a motel room on the boulevard I guess she's trying to be James Dean She's seen all the disciples and all the "wanna be's" No one wants to be themselves these days Still there's nothing to hold on to but these days These days - the stars seem out of reach These days - there ain't a ladder on the streets These days are fast, nothing lasts in this graceless age There ain't nobody left but us these days Jimmy shoes busted both his legs, trying to learn to fly From a second story window, he just jumped and closed his eyes His momma said he was crazy - he said, "Momma, I've got to try. Don't you know that all my heroes died? And I guess I'd rather die than fade away." These days - the stars seem out of reach But these days - there ain't a ladder on the streets These days are fast, nothing lasts in this graceless age Even innocence has caught the midnight train And there ain't nobody left but us these days I know Rome's still burning Though the times have changed This world keeps turning round and round and round and round These days These days - the stars seem out of reach But these days - there ain't a ladder on the streets These days are fast, love don't last in this graceless age Even innocence has caught the midnight train And there ain't nobody left but us these days These days - the stars seem out of reach These days - there ain't a ladder on the streets These days are fast, nothing lasts There ain't no time to waste There ain't nobody left to take the blame There ain't nobody left but us these days |

Rumour has it that your daddy's coming down
He's gonna pay the rent Tell me baby, is this as good as this life is gonna get It feels like there's a stranger standing in these shoes But I know I can't lose me 'cause then I'd be losing you I know I promised baby I would be the one to make our dreams come true I ain't too proud of all the struggles And the hard times we've been through When this cold world comes between us Please tell me you'll be brave Cause I can realize the danger when forgiveness fades away Chorus: If you don't love me - lie to me 'Cause baby you're the one thing I believe Let it all fall down around us, if that's what's meant to be Right now if you don't love me baby - lie to me Pour another cup of coffee, babe I got something to say to you I ain't got the winning ticket Not the one that's gonna pull us through No one said that it'd be easy, let your old man take you home But know if you walk out on me That darling, I'd be gone Chorus Baby - I can take it It's a bitch, but life's a roller coaster ride The ups and downs will make you scream sometimes It's hard believing that the thrill is gone But we got to go around again, so let's hold on Chorus Baby I can take it C'mon lie to me..... |

I'm lying here beside you
In someone else's bed Knowing what we're doing's wrong But better left unsaid Your breathing sounds like screaming, it's all that I can stand His ring is on your finger, but my heart is in your hands Chorus: Damned if you love me - damned if you don't It's getting harder holding on, but I can't let you go Damned if you don't need me - damned if you do God , I wish it wasn't me standing in these shoes Damned, damned A door slams like a shotgun, you jump up to your feet But it's just the wind blowing through the secrets that we keep Made me wanna want you, God knows I need to need you By the time the love is over, I'll be sleeping on the streets Chorus Why won't you talk to me? Because I'm too blind to see Why won't you look at me? Because I'm afraid to breathe What do you want from me? All that I can stand The lies are on my tongue and I can't turn back I know The soul is damned Don't worry I ain't gonna call you or hear you say my name And if you see me on the street, don't wave just walk away Our lives are getting twisted, let's keep our stories straight The more that I resist it, my temptation turns to fate |

Misery likes company, I like the way that sounds
I've been trying to find the meaning, so I can write it down Staring out the window, it's such a long way down I'd like to jump, but I'm afraid to hit the ground Chorus: I can't write a love song the way I feel today I can't sing no song of hope, I got nothing to say Life is feeling kind of strange, since you went away I sing this song to you wherever you are As my guitar lies bleeding in my arms I'm tired of watching TV, it makes me want to scream Outside the world is burning, man it's so hard to believe Each day you know you're dying from the cradle to the grave I get so numb sometimes, that I can't feel the pain Chorus Staring at the paper, I don't know what to write I'll have my last cigarette - well, turn out the lights Maybe tomorrow I'll feel a different way But here is my delusion, I don't know what to say Chorus I can't write a love song the way I feel today I can't sing no song of hope, There's no one left to save And I can't fight the feelings, buried in my brains I send this song to wherever you are, As my guitar lies bleeding in my arms As my guitar lies bleeding in my arms As my guitar lies bleeding in my arms |

It ain't no fun lying down to sleep
and there ain't no secrets left for me to keep I wish the stars up in the sky would all just call in sick and the clouds would take the moon out on some one-way trip I drove all night down streets that wouldn't bend but somehow they drove me back here once again to the place I lost at love, and the place I lost my soul I wish I'd just burn downthis place that we called home It would all have been so easy if you'd only made me cry and told me how you're leaving me to some organ grinder's lullaby It' hard, so hard - It's tearing out my heart It's hard letting you go Now the sky, it shines a differentkind of blue and the Neighbor's dog don't bark like he used to Well - me, these days, I just miss you - It's the night that I go insane Unless you're coming back, For me, that's one thing I know that won't change It' hard, so hard - It's tearing out my heart It's hard letting you go Now some tarot card shark said I'll draw you a heart and we'll find you somebody else new But I've made my last trip to those carival lips, when I bet all that I had on you It's hard, it's hard, it's hard, so hard it's hard letting you go It's hard, so hard, it's tearing out my heart But it's hard letting you go |

And I can't get you off my mind God knows I've tried Did I throw away the best part of my life When I cut you off, did I cut myself with the same damn knife Hide my tears in the pouring rain, had my share of hurt and pain Don't say my name, run away, cause it's all in vain Chorus: My hearts breaking even, now there's no use we even try Hey I cried, yeah I died, hell I almost died Don't got a reason, let's just fold the cards and say good-bye It's all right, just two hearts breaking even tonight It's been a long, long, long time Since I've had your love here in my hands We didn't understand it, we couldn't understand it But, nothing's fair in love and hate You lay it all down and walk away, before it's too late We danced all night as the music played The sheets got tangled in the mess we made There in the stains, we remain, No one left to blame Chorus Go on, get on with your life, Yeah - I'll get on with mine Broken hearts can't call the cops, yeah it's the perfect crime Twisting and turning the night keeps me yearning I'm burning alive I'm paying the price again But I'll see the light again My hearts breaking even, now there's no use we even try Hey I cried, yeah I died, hell I almost died Don't got a reason, let's just fold the cards and say good-bye It's all right, just two hearts breaking even tonight |

I lost all faith in my God, in his religion too
I told the angels they could sing their songs to someone new I lost all trust in my friends, I watched my heart turn to stone I thought that I was left to walk this wicked world alone Tonight I'll dust myself off Tonight I'll suck my gut in I'll face the night and I'll pretend I got something to believe in And I had lost touch with reason I watched life criticize the truth Been waiting for a miracle I know you have too Though I know I won't win I'll take this one on the chin We'll raise a toast and I'll pretend I got something to believe in Chorus If I don't believe in Jesus, how can I believe the Pope If I don't believe in heroin, how can I believe the dope If there's nothing but survival, how can I believe in sin In a world that gives you nothing, we need something to believe in.

I played that part so lonely and so well Thought that love belonged to someone else, not me and you Yeah, I know that you've been shattered You been bruised We both know what it feels like when you lose But I'd bet my life on a roll of the dice for you If that's what it takes, that's what I'd do Tonite's the night, I'm gonna prove it to you Do I have to break down, baby just to break through If that's what it takes, that's what I'd do If that's what it takes...

Can I let my breath out? Let me believe I'm building a dream Don't try to drag me down I just want to scream out loud Can I be happy now? Been down on my knees I learned how to bleed I'm turnin’ my world around Can I be happy now? Can I break free somehow? I just want to live again Love again Pick my pride up off of the ground I'm ready to pick a fight Crawl out of the dark to shine a light I ain't throwing stones Got sins of my own Ain't everybody just trying to find a way home? Can I be happy now? Can I let my breath out? Let me believe I'm building a dream Don't try to drag me down I just want to scream out loud Can I be happy now? Been down on my knees I learned how to bleed I'm turning my world around You're born then you die It’s all gone in a minute I ain't looking back Cause I don't want to miss it You better live now Cause no one's going to get out alive, alive Can I be happy now? Can I let my breath out? Let me believe I'm building a dream Don't try to drag me down I just want to scream out loud Can I be happy now? Been down on my knees I learned how to bleed I'm turning my world around Can I be happy now? Ohhhh I'm turning my world around Can I be happy now? |

I have run from the truth
Since the days of my misspent youth I was hungry for kindness I was lost in life's blindness When you're born without wings All you dream of all you want Is that feeling of flying Of rising and climbing Halle Halle We're one breath away Halle Halle From our judgement day You leave it all on the table If you lose or you win You've got to learn to love The world you're living in Always thought I’d die young In these hands I help the gun But it's too late for dying Now there's nothing worth hiding I've lost love lived with shame I was humbled by my fall from grace On the steps of decision It's revenge or forgiveness Halle Halle We're one breath away Halle Halle From our judgement day You leave it all on the table If you lose or you win You got to learn to love The world you're living in Halle Halle Halle Halle Halle Halle We're one breath away Halle Halle From our judgement day You leave it all on the table If you lose or you win You got to learn to love The world you're living in Halle Halle And that's how it is You've got to learn to love The world you're living in Halle Halle Halle Halle Halle Halle |

It's all the same, only the names will change
Everyday it seems we're wasting away Another place where the faces are so cold I'd drive all night just to get back home [Chorus:] I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride I'm wanted dead or alive Wanted dead or alive Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it's not for days And the people I meet always go their separate ways Sometimes you tell the day By the bottle that you drink And times when you're alone all you do is think [Chorus] I walk these streets, a loaded six string on my back I play for keeps, 'cause I might not make it back I been everywhere, and I'm standing tall I've seen a million faces an I've rocked them all I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride I'm wanted dead or alive I'm a cowboy, I got the night on my side I'm wanted dead or alive And I ride, dead or alive I still drive, dead or alive Dead or alive [x4] |

On the street where you live girls talk about their social lives
They're made of lipstick, plastic and paint, a touch of sable in their eyes All your life all you've asked when's your Daddy gonna talk to you You were living in another world tryin' to get your message through. No one heard a single word you said. They should have seen it in your eyes What was going around your heart. [Chorus:] Ooh, she's a little runaway. Daddy's girl learned fast All those things he couldn't say. Ooh, she's a little runaway. A different line every night guaranteed to blow your mind See you out on the streets, call me for a wild time So you sit home alone 'cause there's nothing left that you can do There's only pictures hung in the shadows left there to look at you You know she likes the lights at nights on the neon Broadway signs She don't really mind, it's only love she hoped to find [Repeat chorus] No one heard a single word she said They should have seen it in your eyes What was going around your heart Ooh, she's a little runaway Daddy's girl learned fast All those things he couldn't say Ooh, she's a little runaway Daddy's girl learned fast Now she was the night away Ooh, she's a little runaway Daddy's girl learned fast All those things he couldn't say Ooh, she's a little runaway Daddy's girl learned fast Now she was the night away |

There are days when she's a whisper
Nights when she's a scream A reason to wake up in the morning To close your eyes and dream She'll curse you like a sailor She'll wound you with her eyes She always makes it better But she won't apologize I know everything about her but don't know her at all She's a ride on a mystery train To a place you've never been before Better hold on tight to that mystery train You're not in Kansas anymore She's a ride Mystery train She cries because she's happy She sings songs when she's mad Like a stiff drink when you need it She's good at being bad And long before you knew her you knew she was the one She's a ride on a mystery train To a place you've never been before Better hold on tight to that mystery train You're not in Kansas anymore She's a ride Mystery train Solo I know everything about her but don't know her at all She's a ride on a mystery train To a place I've never been before Better hold on tight to that mystery train I'm not in Kansas anymore She's a ride On a mystery train She's a ride On a mystery train |

There's colors on the street
Red, white and blue People shufflin' their feet People sleepin' in their shoes But there's a warming sign on the road ahead There's lot of people sayin' we'd better off dead Don't feel like Satan, but I am to them So I try to forget it, any way I can. Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world I see a woman in the night With a baby in her hand Under an old street light Near a garbage can Now she puts the kid away, and she's gone to get a hit he hates her life and what she's done to it There's one more kid that will never go to school Never get to fall in love, never get to be cool Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world We got a thousand points of light For the homeless man We got a kinder, gentler, Machine gun hand We got department stores and toilet paper Got styrofoam boxes for the ozone layer Got a man of the people, says keep hope alive Got fuel to burn, got roads to drive Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world |

Hey, man, it′s been a while
Do you remember me? When I hit the streets I was 17 A little wild, a little green I′ve been up and down and in between After all these years Can you believe I′m still chasing that dream But I ain′t looking over my shoulder I like the bed I′m sleeping in It′s just like me, it′s broken in It′s not old -- just older Like a favourite pair of torn blue jeans This skin I′m in it′s alright with me It′s not old -- just older It′s good to see your face You ain′t no worse for wear Breathing that California air When we took on the world When we were young and brave We got secrets that we′ll take to the grave And we′re standing here shoulder to shoulder I like the bed I′m sleeping in It′s just like me, it′s broken in It′s not old -- just older Like a favourite pair of torn blue jeans This skin I′m in it′s alright with me It′s not old -- just older I′m not old enough to sing the blues But I wore the holes in the soles of these shoes You can roll the dice ′til they call your bluff But you can′t win until you′re not afraid to lose Well, I look in the mirror I don′t hate what I see There′s a few more lines staring back at me The nights have grown a little colder Hey man, I gotta run Now you take care If you see coach T. Tell him I cut my hair It′s been all these years Can you believe I′m still chasing dreams But I ain′t looking over my shoulder I like the bed I′m sleeping in It′s just like me, it′s broken in It′s not old -- just older Like a favourite pair of torn blue jeans This skin I′m in it′s alright with me It′ s not old -- just older |
