Anything Stronger 03:19
lyrics

It's the same old celebration There's no need to scream and shout On vacation, I tried to cut you out It's killing me that you were not all that I need As cunning and lovely and ugly and fun as you are So no thanks for the ride I can wait all my life I'll take this in stride for one more day I don't care anymore If you open that door I got this feeling I just can't explain You're so graceful in situations I feel the need to run my mouth I'm so grateful that the cops wont' find us out It's agony how you love me then you leave Just kiss me don't tease me this misery it's all I have I can't stop it any longer Do you get anything stronger? I gotta find a cure for you My heart is on the table So don't try to stop me, angel It's not fair anymore, so don't open that door

Failure 03:49
lyrics

I'm not so great at hearing your opinions But I've got some good advice If I'm feeling hopeless one day Make sure to ask me twice 'Cause I don't want to talk about it We don't have to talk about it We can just stay home And I can't compete with my older brothers They lived their dreams but they hate each other So I never felt like I fit in And it's so damn hard 'cause I love both of them So why do I try? So I take one day at a time I'm telling everyone I'll be just fine And I don't want to think about the things that I've done Because they've all gone wrong I've been married, divorced, and married again I lost my house, my job, and half my friends And my new girl says that I can act a jerk So why do I think that I can make this work right now? 'Cause life's got me down So say I'll make it this time I'm fighting 'cause nobody can take what's mine And I don't want to hear about it, think about it, dream about it Just for fun I'll take my last chance And play my last hand While we dream about the days when life was just a phase I'm feeling faithless Can't make the day last Till I got what I had come for Did I forget what I had come for?

I Feel Alive 03:57
lyrics

Bore me some more, the foolish one Try to escape my father's son But when I wake am I still on the run? It won't replace the space in my heart I feel alive The dreams are in my head I feel alive They're chasing me instead And if you're alive The future's in your hands And if the grave is what you crave it's where you'll land They throw it in, another deed Can words alone be what you'd need? Carry on, carry on my friend You don't have to stay until the end I dare to stare but no one's there It's probably just a waste of my time For me to see, I don't believe It's just a voice in my mind ...you've got a chance, so take it...

A Life You Won't Miss 03:00
lyrics
buy track
I woke today All the colors of the rainbow bend in different shades Of grey And it seems like a waste Just to carry on like every other man takes his place Without a trace And no one knows just where we go We try so hard to take control We fight like hell just to lose it all But please don't forget They sold you a life you don't need What if I told you, you could have it for free? Do you feel you've taken a risk? Or have you settled on this? A life you won't miss when you're gone away And who cares if I'm wrong? Because I try to do right and hold my head high to keep strong So what if I married a song? It goes like this, sing along They sold you a life you don't need What if I told you, you could have it for free? It's on the TV set, your radio The big screen Hollywood picture show And you can't get enough of a life you'll never live

The Dark Passenger 03:18
lyrics

My wings won't open up Far enough to make the jump Why am I always just too late or just too soon? Why am I never good enough For the ones who judge that stuff? I silence all my fear and doubt Just long enough to call you out I'm not falling I'm not drowning You're just trying to take control You're trying to take control of this So I tried to shut you out But your voice just carries loud When it seems everyone else gets what I want And now I'm stronger facing fears And fighting demons all these years I found something to live for So I pack my shit to let you go I'm not falling I'm not drowning You're just trying to take control You're trying to take control of this I'm not changing I'm just staying who I am You're trying to take control You're trying to take control of this And time is running out But I am running faster The night won't take its toll Until the morning after

Snowed In 03:52
lyrics

Sunrise Your brown eyes I can't make the world pause for one day For just one day Just like this I kiss your lips And just like this I push you away You push away You're snowed in like the first time And I cannot dig you out I just can't pull you out You swore you were done Now you're under his thumb You cannot get away for just one day For just one day Knock knock, it's five o' clock And our hungers have been fed When the drugs are in our heads You're trying... We're only half a day away From changing everything
