Losing Control

We're so divided,
Let's get united,
There is a way to get back on the road.
You cannot buy it,
You cannot write it,
It's just the way that you want it to go.
Your love is a horizon that I've been dreaming of,
You've got the way down to it...
I'm losing control,
Yeah, I'm losing control,
Losing control.
Something's ignited,
There's no use fighting,
Where is the place that we both used to know?
Something collided or we decided.
Is this the way that you want it to go?
Your love is a horizon that I've been dreaming of,
You've got the way down to it...
I'm losing control,
Yeah, I'm losing control,
Let's get into the show,
Losing control.
Losing control, losing control...
You've got the way down to it.

Reach
04:10

A regular man,
With a bit of style,
He's got no destination,
So he's been here a while.
You don't get much,
In tiny doses,
But he's got some imagination,
That keeps you hanging on those promises.
Reach for a star,
Cause you know they aren't that far.
Reach up a sleeve,
Show me something,
To believe.
If we did this twice,
Would it be too many?
We had no navigation,
And we sunk our pennies.
I learned my lessons,
I'll take what I can,
If it's not just an aberration,
Give me one last kick at the can.
Out of reach, out of reach,
Oh you're so far gone.
The answer my friend isn't waiting for you on a beach.
Out of reach, out of reach,
Oh you're so far gone.
It's time to walk into the breach.

Good Things

Strength,
Strength for the night,
You be the flame, the flame in the night.
Everything's a game,
A game 'til you find,
You wanna be the name,
The name in the lights.
Take, take all you can,
You wanna go and break,
But then you stick to the plan.
I said no hard feelings,
When it's all gone wrong,
Oh can you feel it,
You've got a long way up now.
Good things don't come to those who wait,
You've got, you've got to grab it,
Soon you'll be too late,
You've got, you've got to nab it,
No matter what they throw on your plate,
You've got, you've got to stab it,
Whoa.
Go wherever you go,
You'll never escape,
Your skin and bones.
it's a cold, hard feeling when it's all locked up,
Can you believe it?
You've got a long way up now.

For The Money
02:57
|

|
I gotta get ideas,
For every day that follows,
To turn this thing around,
Cause every day is hollow.
I try, I try to shake it,
I'm doin' all that I can,
They try, they try to break me,
But there's one thing to understand it's..
Oh (oh oh), I did it all,
I did for the money.
Oh (oh oh), I did it all,
I did for the money.
Since I was seventeen,
They put it all in my head,
You're gonna do this thing,
until the day that you're dead.
CHORUS
Oh, where do you go from here,
To save yourself,
I'm running in circles,
Hide my head,
'Til something gives.

Make It Happen
04:04
|

|
When I call you up,
And you realize,
This is serious,
So read between the lies, yeah, yeah.
No more empty rooms,
No need to theorize,
You're delirious,
But say you’re feeling fine, yeah, yeah.
I'm running, I'm running to break through,
I'm no longer willing to make do,
Just tell me you hear me, you feel me,
Let’s run and keep running it away.
I'm going out of my head
To try to make it happen (whoa, whoa)
I'm going out of my head
To try to make it there (whoa, whoa)
Why don't you meet me there?
When you're falling down,
Your swagger’s on the line,
No one’s steppin’ in,
You gotta start the fire, yeah, yeah.
CHORUS
Why don't you meet me there?
Why don't you meet me there?
Why don't you meet me there?
Why don't you meet me there?

Something In The Air
04:09
|
|||
|
Run in circles,
Stare into space,
Light the candle,
Tear the bonds away,
Any way.
Broken bottles,
Like your feelings,
No set model,
Life you're stealing, oh.
Is it something in the air? Oh.
Like the desert in the rain,
Like the early-morning pain,
That you'll never feel again, no.
Right the wrongs, dear.
Sew the loose ends,
Sing the songs here,
Know your true friends, oh.
CHORUS
