Bullets:
I just heard the news today
Found myself in disarray
Does anybody out there feel it too
Bullets fly'n through the sky
Destination you and I
Light me up I'll take a shot at you
But I never ever knew never ever knew the pain was real
Sleep'n sister on the bed
Psycho killer photo spread
Needle in her arm to get her through
Cancers grow'n on the mind
Absent love is what you find
Alone at night you join her solitude
Chorus
The system eats you where you sleep
Soiled hands and dirty feet
Your lies and alibis are all the same
But in your mind you slip around
Think your safe at least for now
'Till you see the thing that you became
Chorus

A love'n lie

A love'n lie:
do what you want to you can always quit in the end
that's what they tell you you soon find out you've been misled
don't buy into the lie you've got to open your eyes
She's a live'n love'n lie rock'n roller soul controller
she'll just lead you on she'll control you steal your soul too
she's a live'n love'n lie
there's one way to the east but many ways to the west
God get me out of here I feel my life is a mess
you got to make up your mind, who will you serve in your life
Chorus
i think I've been here one too many times
i feel I'm gonna lose it all inside
you think you want it too
and now it's up to you
Chorus

Today
Today sirens sing a lullaby
i can't wait to make you mine
then i wake from a dream
she calls I'm stumble'n to get the phone
she says it's too late to be alone oh what should i do
if she calls me back i'll say
Think i'm leave'n here tonight
may be over now but somehow i feel it's right
i'm shooting for the stars in sight
when i'm with you i'm not feel'n alright
she comes to me a deceiver
she wants for me to believe her
i know she's been all alone somehow
that doesn't really matter now cos it's gone to my head
if she calls me back i'll say
Chorus

Don't fly away
Halo hangs on your head but you're feeling misled
know it's harder to go down a more narrow road
feel life's pass'n you by everyones get'n high
you forgot who you are feel you've driven too far
are you free tonight are you free tonight
don't fly away don't fly away
oh can't you see what you're doing to me
you've been lost in the crowd and cry'n out loud
for me to set you free but you never believe
you keep close'n your eyes feel that you've got the time
Chorus

Feel the love:
Feel the love when we get together it's you i'm think'n of
hold'n on never let'n go of the love thats lead'n me on
Feel alive it's a feel'n that you'll never die
so alone do you wanna know how to let it go let it go
feel'n free break'n loose from the pain that held on to me
no return once you catch the feel'n your fly'n just like a bird
Chorus

Wendy:
Hello Wendy are you come'n home when i saw you last night said you didn't know
maybe tomorrow will say it all i know you're come'n cus you never call
So tell me why you said you'd always be around
did it slip your mind when you let me down
and i will come back around
when you left me i was away turned out tomorrow was just another day
will you see me we'll tie the knot open the window throw away the lock
Chorus

I don't know why
02:20

|
I don't know why:
I saw a girl standing next to me she was starve'n for attention she could barley eat
she didn't know what she was look'n for she only knew that she was look'n for more
But i don't know why she's willing to be in her misery
yeah i don't know why its gone to her head the things that she's read
i said maybe you could use someone's help she said babe it's every man for themselves
i guess that's why she'll always be just a girl standing next to me
Chorus
ooh babe run'n so fast what will you do
you've got to be the queen of cool
Chorus

Hold tight:
She calls and i listen to her voice
she says i don't have much more of a choice
cus she's made up her mind leave'n me behind
Baby's leave'n tonight hold tight hold tight
she's take'n me for a ride tonight
she wants more sympathy to be said
hang'n out the 16th floor in her head
yeah she's made up her mind
leave'n me behind leave'n tonight
Chorus

So surprised:
So so surprised you may find when it's the end
now is the time look inside are you my friend
don't don't deny the time is right but we are few
lose lose your life and you find you've gained it to
do you wanna be do you wanna see do you wanna believe in something
i am the one i'm live'n love i am the war thats come'n
she thinks she's live'n but its emptiness in her heart
she's been run'n from what she doesn't understand love
You are the way you are the way everybody's go'n to say
sold sold in time blood is wine the chosen few
when when the time comes you'll know this is the end
do you wanna be do you wanna see do you wanna believe in something
i am the one i'm live'n love i am the war thats come'n
she thinks she's live'n but its emptiness in her heart
she's been run'n from what she doesn't understand love
Chorus
