I Got Time

I got debts I’ll never pay / You know one’s up / Another will take its place / There’s always something creeping from behind / It’s only cause I turn away / It’s easier when you work that way / Then no one has to know what's on your mind / If I break in the night, I'll say / If I break by the dawn, you'll say, say / That I got time, oh, time, oh baby, yeah / Raised by the sunlight, I see it skewed / Praise for the parasites and near-sighted fools / I can't see, the way / If I break by the dawn, you'll say / That I got time, oh, time, oh baby, yeah / Ice in the veins, but my heart, I'm on fire / Places erase, only, if I... / Break in the night, I'll say / If I break by the dawn, you'll say, say / That I got time, oh, time, oh baby, yeah.

We Didn't Know

The temperature is rising / And no one knows where to go / It's coming out of everything / And we need someone to show / There's no idea / How to leave this town easily / The aperture, we view a thing / It alters every day / The future's surprising / Until you throw it away / I've no idea / Cause you're twice my age, right here / And then we scream to the world... / Growing up with everything / You never know where to start / But showing up is everything / You had my right from the start / There's no right thing / You could say right here to me / And so we scream to the world... / We didn't know / We didn't know / We didn't know / We didn't know / We didn't know / We didn't know.

Hesitate

I gotta know when someone walks in the room / Everything you gotta have it man, everything's soon / I gotta know when someone's up on the floor / Everything you gotta have it man or nothing's in store / I got to know if you're in the middle / Everything that you've got, is everything that I need / There ain't no time to be a fence sitter / Everything that you've got, is everything that I need / Oh, don't deviate / A perfect state / Could be our fate / If we don't hesitate / Open up the door / Open up the gate / Don't make me wait / Oh just don't hesitate / I gotta call you up and tell you the score / Maybe it should be something that we talk about more / I gotta to call you up and tell you the deal / What you're gonna find out, man nothing is real / Whoa, Whoa / You want it, you need it, you know what you're asking for / Whoa, whoa / There's one more than I've got to say it's...

The Only One

I, I can't breathe / Your words, entwine / Don't say, this ranting / Has got to be a sign / Cause I'm the only one / That you will find / I'm the only one / For you tonight / I'm the only one / So don't say no, no, no, no, no, no / No, no answers, can you provide / Your moves, are hazy / But I'll wait through the night / Cause you're never gonna find it / When you're all alone / And you're never gonna hide it / Cause I'm tired of going through the motions / Can it be the only way? / And I'm through with feeling these emotions / Don’t throw it all away / Just give it another day.

Suddenly
04:41
|

|
One time, one time, and you're lucky / One time is a crime if you're ducking / I hold my head high, to the light / Saying that I know it's gonna be alright / Thought I had it right down to the letter / Thought I knew the way through to make it better / But you can't push a man to his limit / ‘Cause he just might crack under the light / Oh the news they'd write / But you saw the light / Is it something better anyway? / Suddenly, suddenly, suddenly, I'm not me / You coulda been, coulda been, coulda been a rock'n'roll star / Sometimes these rhymes make it clear / When you've got that bug in your ear / I put my head down for one brief moment / When I looked up the day had changed to night / I can feel there's something on your mind / Could it be, you know you won't like what you're gonna find? / When you feel as close as the holy ghost / But you're feeling old and you never seem to change / 'Cause you never change.

What You Got

What you got, is all I need / What you got, is all I need / You walk right through me / You talk right through me / You walk right through me / You talk right through me / This is the end of our life, but we do it, do it / This is all of my soul / I'm moving on and on / What you got, is all you need / What you got, is all you need, all you need, all you need / You walk right through me / You talk right through me / This is all of my soul, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah / You fade me when you finally know I know your name / But you know, know, know, / Cause you save me, when you feel it / I finally know your name, your name, your name, your name / What I got, is all you need / What I got, is all you need, all you need, all you need / This is the end of our life, so let's do it, do it / This is all of our souls, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Not That Easy
05:09

I scorched the land / With diesel fire / I seared my lungs, / With my own desires / I spit those words / They taste so fine / Now I curse the day / That I made them mine. / I never saw the warning sign. / You're on my mind / All of the time / Sorry to say now, it's not that easy / You want me to break down, / You want me to leave town / Sorry to say now / It's not that easy, easy / I can't turn back, / Yeah I chose this life, / Now the memory stings / Like a rusty knife. / Well I gotta go / Get the hell out of here / And leave behind / All I held so dear / Oh, oh, you want me to leave, is there something you’re after? No.
