Deadlights

Once again in a crowded den
Got in trouble with the law again
I’m sure there’s a reason but I’m being told
That searching for a meaning is getting old
Got caught up in the race tonight
Against regulation because wrong is right
You’re telling me I ain’t the same
But change is continuous and I’m not to blame
Let’s just say it shows
Which way it blows
But the wind will follow
The rain in sorrow
And I will do the same mistakes again
Twice a night I feel alright
But suddenly it’s out of sight
The one thing I hold dear and cherish most
Seizes to exist and I’m pale as a ghost
Got caught up in the race tonight
Against regulation because wrong is right
You’re telling me I ain’t the same
But change is continuous and I’m not to blame
Let’s just say it shows
Which way it blows
But the wind will follow
The rain in sorrow
And I will do the same mistakes again
Deadlights shut me out
While the sun burns clear and bright
Deadlights shut me out
Complete darkness still out of sight
Let’s just say it shows
Which way it blows
But the wind will follow
The rain in sorrow
And I will do the same mistakes again

Brand New Day
03:48
|

Feeling the chills as I’m closing the window
The air runs thin
With all the things I never could let go
The mess I’m in
But I’ve made up my mind I’m keeping
My stories to myself
And somehow I will get revenge
I’m not saying I’m leading the way to a revolution
I’m not saying I’m giving you hopes in a better way
But in my mind there’s a lot of anticipation
Watch me as I’m flipping you off
And stay prepared for a brand new day
Heading down to my favourite safe place
Where I feel home
Where no one knows my name and I am a stranger
That’s where I belong
Even if I’ll never end up a loner
I think I’ve made my point
And somehow I will get revenge
I’m not saying I’m leading the way to a revolution
I’m not saying I’m giving you hopes in a better way
But in my mind there’s a lot of anticipation
Watch me as I’m flipping you off
And stay prepared for a brand new day
I’m not saying I’m leading the way to a revolution
I’m not saying I’m giving you hopes in a better way
But in my mind there’s a lot of anticipation
Watch me as I’m flipping you off
And stay prepared for a brand new day

Good Enough

Getting rowdy by the fireside
It’s easier than being alone
Wasting every little inch of time
Just to get into the zone
It’s getting better and I’m throwing out the letters
From a time when I was on a roll
This song’s a shaker I’m a giver not a taker
And the running has taken its toll
But you know
When your body turns to stone
When the angels are going home
There’s a feeling that I get that I’ll never forget
Being good is good enough
Lighting up all the candles of trust
Blowing them out in a single beat
It’s a desire getting smoke without the fire
But I think that I can take the heat
It’s getting better since I threw out all the letters
From a time when I was on the verge
This tune’s a rocker I’m a designated shocker
And I’m starting to feel the urge
But you know
When your body turns to stone
When the angels are going home
There’s a feeling that I get that I’ll never forget
Being good is good enough
Getting rowdy by the fireside
It’s easier than being alone
Wasting every little inch of time
Just to get into the zone
It’s getting better and I’m throwing out the letters
From a time when I was on a roll
This song’s a shaker I’m a giver not a taker
And the running has taken its toll
But you know
When your body turns to stone
When the angels are going home
There’s a feeling that I get that I’ll never forget
Being good is good enough
Being good is good enough
Being good is good enough

I know it’s crazy but it’s driving me mad
We think the best is what we’ve never had
Wrong side of the tracks
Nails against backs
My mind makes up for what my body lacks
She’s like tomorrow
If tomorrow turns out fine
It’s not a steal nor a sorrow
That I’m gonna make her mine
All doors open, all eyes closed
Getting the least of what I need the most
Hare-hearted with a shield of gold
Never say forever is what I’ve been told
All doors open, all eyes closed
Catch and release
Tease me with ease
How could I let it go in times like these?
She’s like tomorrow
If tomorrow turns out fine
It’s not a steal nor a sorrow
That I’m gonna make her mine
There’s a million other things I should do
But I’d rather be with you
You know she’s just like tomorrow
And tomorrow will be fine
She’s like tomorrow
If tomorrow turns out fine
It’s not a steal nor a sorrow
That I’m gonna make her mine
You know she’s just like tomorrow
If tomorrow turns out fine
It’s not a steal nor a sorrow
That I’m gonna make her mine
You know she’s like tomorrow
She’s like tomorrow
She’s like tomorrow

'Cept the Truth
02:01

Pack your bags let me take you for a ride
When it all comes down there’s nowhere to hide
Nothing beats a good time on your own
But right now your freedom is overthrown
It is alright to feel lost
But there ain’t no use to override the costs
There is no battle you can’t win
Just remember victory is the ultimate sin
You got it all still you want something more
When the house is built you walk out the door
It’s a growing pain being stuck with the truth
All you have to give disappears with youth
It is alright to feel lost
But there ain’t no use to override the costs
There is no battle you can’t win
Just remember victory is the ultimate sin
It is alright to feel lost
But there ain’t no use to override the costs
There is no battle you can’t win
Just remember victory is the ultimate sin
Just remember victory is the ultimate sin
Just remember victory is the ultimate sin

Limitations

Counting the days I’ll be away
Counting the days until I’m back home to stay
Uncertain times and come what may
I saw my dream pass before my eyes
Apparent truce became battle cries
When the lights came on I didn’t realize
I would die for you but not right now
I’m gonna make it work but I really don’t know how
If there is a time and place I’ll make my final stand
I’ll handle things the only way I can
Safe and sorry at the same time
Moving forward by leaving behind
Losing what I have to get what I find
Living life in mysterious ways
Won’t help me get through the daze
But I’ll answer to whatever I have to face
I would die for you but not right now
I’m gonna make it work but really I don’t know how
If there is a time and place I’ll make my final stand
I’ll handle things the only way I can
I would die for you but not right now
I’m gonna make it work but really I don’t know how
If there is a time and place I’ll make my final stand
I’ll handle things the only way I can

When your dreams keep draining you dry
When you wake up late at night and don’t know why
When your bones seem weak and you want to cry
Remember I’m here until the day we die
You could have knocked me over
With a feather or a stone
I would still not run for cover
Even with all chances blown
We came close to tearing it all down
We had every trench in sight but kept our ground
We gave it all we had and what we found
We embraced and turned into our own sound
You could have knocked me over
With a feather or a stone
I would still not run for cover
Even with all chances blown
You could have knocked me over
With a feather or a stone
I would still not run for cover
Even with all chances blown
You could have knocked me over
With a feather or a stone
I would still not run for cover
Even with all chances blown
You could have knocked me over
With a feather or a
Wth a feather or a stone
I would still not run for cover
Even with all chances blown

You better believe me
I’m gonna fix this mess
I’ve been drinking from the fountain
The well of success
There’s a time and place
But I think it’s starting to come down
To the point of realization
To tip that crown
Here’s to having doubts
And never thinking I am the one
Give it a rest because now that it is said and done
I am all blown out
And everything is looking pale
You think I’m lying like the wind
But mark my words
I know I’m wearing thin, trust me
I’ve got a lot of money comin’ in
There’s a whole in the wall
And I know I’m getting on your nerve
The heat is on it’s way down
It’s less than you deserve
I give you all I got and still it’s never enough
Your view of life is beyond limits and it’s tough
To meet your expectations
I’d rather call your bluff
But try to see it my way
I think you’d understand
That this is what I’m doing and it’s gonna buy us land
I am all blown out
And everything is looking pale
You think I’m lying like the wind
But mark my words
I know I’m wearing thin, trust me
I’ve got a lot of money comin’ in
Here’s to having doubts
And never thinking I am the one
Give it a rest because now that it is said and done
I am all blown out
And everything is looking pale
You think I’m lying like the wind
But mark my words
I know I’m wearing thin, trust me
I’ve got a lot of money comin’ in

Forever the Optimist
03:16
|
|||
I’m very sorry
That I never got through to you
All the things I promised
All the lies that wouldn’t do
I had a vision
That I was gonna realize
But I made a decision
When things just wasn’t right
I never want to be too good at anything
'Cause that would mean the risk of something permanent
I choose satisfaction over success
I’m forever the optimist
You can call me a fool
Naive or even dumb
I will happily play that part
If it means I don’t have to run
But I’ll get up and leave
Before it all gets too dark
I’ll stay forever
As long as there’s a spark
I never want to be too good at anything
'Cause that would mean the risk of something permanent
I choose satisfaction over success
I’m forever the optimist
I never want to be too good at anything
'Cause that would mean the risk of something permanent
I choose satisfaction over success
I’m forever the optimist

Silver Tongue
03:39

Talk is cheap and nobody listens
Even though points are made
Sometimes the occasional eyes can glisten
But we are all part of the same charade
Ten million times a day we hear the same old story
And no one cares to think at all
We find it odd to leave things uncertain
But we tend to go around instead of climbing the unavoidable mountain
Ten million times a day we hear the same old story
And no one cares to think of how to change despair into glory
Until I hear a voice that wants to get things done
I’m gonna run my silver tongue
Money talks and everyone forfeits
To the point of no return
Lack of courage amongst trendy misfits
Why should it be anyone’s concern
Ten million times a day we hear the same old story
And no one cares to think of how to change despair into glory
Until I hear a voice that wants to get things done
I’m gonna run my silver tongue
My silver tongue

There’s a lot of feelings
Feelings I’ve been trying to hide
Love despair and anger
The inability to choose sides
Is there a way to keep from falling
In which direction can I see what should be in front of me
Bring back the good old days
When I could shut my eyes and make it go away
Fast forward to a brighter time
Where things pass by and I can feel okay
This has been going on for too long
I can’t tell right from wrong
I have no more answers
I simply don’t have a clue
But there comes a time when
Everything has to start with you
Suddenly I hear a siren calling
Why can’t it show me how to see what should be in front of me
Bring back the good old days
When I could shut my eyes and make it go away
Fast forward to a brighter time
Where things pass by and I can feel okay
This has been going on for too long
I can’t tell right from wrong
Bring back the good old days
When I could shut my eyes and make it go away
Fast forward to a brighter time
Where things pass by and I can feel okay
This has been going on for too long
I can’t tell right from wrong

Hindsight
03:42

We were on our way to heaven
We made it almost through
We took a glance at freedom
But if we only knew
That what we viewed as true life
In fact put us through hell
With no way of turning back
Left was an empty shell
The time has come to stop the show
(Let it go, let it go, let it go)
And put an end to all we know
(Let it go, let it go, let it go)
We’ve given all we had and the answer is still no
It’s getting dark just let it go
Not the point nor the question
But it don’t matter now
I had the map and compass
But I lost track somehow
I gave in at full throttle
Way more than I could take
Hold on to your bottle
If you have more hearts to break
The time has come to stop the show
(Let it go, let it go, let it go)
And put an end to all we know
(Let it go, let it go, let it go)
We’ve given all we had and the answer is still no
It’s getting dark just let it go
The time has come to stop the show
And put an end to all we know
(Let it go, let it go, let it go)
We’ve given all we had and the answer is still no
It’s getting dark just let it go
The time has come to stop the show
(Let it go, let it go, let it go)
And put an end to all we know
(Let it go, let it go, let it go)
We’ve given all we had and the answer is still no
It’s getting dark just let it go
