better grab your guns
time to prove just what you're made of son

red light flashes

Love Kills
don’t cry
it was only just a dream
nice try
nothing’s ever as it seems
i'd do anything for you
how certain that we were
asked me to unlock the door
but that’s the last i heard from her
we die
everybody takes their turn
so why
do we always feel the burn?
i guess i’ll remember you
innocence at best
moving home a bit too soon
puts my courage to the test
wish i pulled the alarm
always in my head
forever on my arm
turning grey and growing old
early morning pavement cold
worked too hard not to get it right
love has killed me twice
ain’t it just a handsome life?
got me always on the run
goodbye
it was real nice knowing you
no lie
you could never love me do
swore to god i'd tell the truth
but didn’t know just how
end up like a fairy tale
yeah, who the hell am i kidding now?
wish i pulled the alarm
always in my head
forever on my arm
turning grey and growing old
early morning pavement cold
worked too hard not to get it right
love has killed me twice
ain’t it just a handsome life?
got me always on the run
it’s too late to pull the alarm
you’re always in my head
and now forever on my arm
turning grey and growing old
early morning pavement cold
worked too hard not to get it right
love has killed me twice
ain’t it just a handsome life?
got me always on the run

On My Own
prayed to god these days would never end
but now i know there's not much time to spend
got tired of wasting time with what i do
need to get my life on track this time for you
'cause my old life is gone and a new one's begun
I’ll desecrate my demons one by one
before i have to make it on my own
wishing that the credits never roll
before i get the chance to save my soul
time to take a good look down inside
need to wake up all those things i tried to hide
'cause my old life is gone and new one's begun
I’ll desecrate my demons one by one
before i have to make it on my own
don't ask me what i have done lately
don't make me have to press rewind
ten angels can you come and save me with your light?
'cause my old life is gone and new one's begun
I’ll desecrate my demons one by one man
before i have to make it on my own
before i have to make it on my own
before i have to make it
i don't want to fake it
yeah now before i have to make it on my own

Follow Me
every night we lay
and pray
choices are becoming clearer
who are we to blame
our pain
on anyone besides the mirror?
i can't take this
i don't need it
follow me back to simplicity
follow me back to serenity
on the open stage
they rage
those without will soon be countless
who will take a stand
demand
to be the new voice of the voiceless?
i can't take this
i don't need it
follow me back to simplicity
follow me back to serenity
oh forgive me
for i can't see
what the future of this country is headin’ for
but we can be
forever free
if we just loved more
follow me back to simplicity
follow me back to serenity
follow me back to security
follow me fight for your liberty

Missing U
into the fire you go
will it keep you warm from all the snow?
all of the lies you told
won't get you what you need
spend all your time alone
virtually an unknown
now that your ego's grown
it's time for you to feed
hey ho let's go
all this time i thought you were my friend
hey ho let's go
I’ll keep singing
you can just pretend
i opened up my eyes
been color blind to your disguise
now that our time is through
i will not be missing, missing you
after the game is done
you'll be the last thing on my mind
both of my ears are closed up
i guess my old style don't fit in with your kind
hey ho let's go
all this time i thought you were my friend
hey ho let's go
I’ll keep singing
you can play pretend
i opened up my eyes
been color blind to your disguise
now that our time is through
i will not be missing, missing you
i opened up my eyes
been color blind to your disguise
now that our time is through
i will not be
won’t be missing you
i opened up my eyes
color blind to
color blind to your disguise.
our time is through
i will not be missing, missing
missing, missing

Blue, White, Red
they bleed for us
in god we trust
ship your son a million miles away
tall, blonde and tan
all-american
too young to drink
but not too old to die today
blue white red
war chapters overblowing in my head again
can't deny
out of control we're spinning
are we winning yet?
i can't decide
who? what? when? or why?
gets difficult to watch the news at 5
believe the hype
their lies are ripe
but in my heart i know he will come home someday
blue white red
war chapters overblowing in my head again
can't deny
out of control we're spinning
are we winning yet?
blue white red
war chapters overblowing in my head again
can't deny
blue white red
war chapters overblowing in my head again
can't deny
out of control we're spinning
are we winning
are we winning yet?

Moscow Mule
did you get tired of this life?
pushing me to sing
pushing me to write
did you get high all your life?
pushing me to love
pushing me to fight
you were always on my side
it's your destiny
jump the shark and escape reality
july memory
but one last song today
"no rain"
did you get blue in your eyes?
pushing me to red
pushing me to white
did you get lost at sunrise?
pushing me to give
pushing to enlight
i was always on your side
it's your destiny
jump the shark and escape reality
july memory
but one last song today
"no rain"
you thought that one more time now for the road
would never make your head explode
believed you when you said that you were clean
i guess that temptation was far too great
way out there in the beaver state
you filled your blood and lungs with gasoline
and mr. brownstone's dreams
it's your destiny
jump the shark and escape reality
july memory
but one last song today
"no rain"

Home
there's a dream that i have where i’m younger
and life hasn't yet passed me by
look upward i see all the faces
that used to sing me lullabies
suddenly i hear a whisper
roll over to feel you alive
trick myself to keep on sleeping
it's the only way you can survive
well wherever you are, can you hear me?
i want you to know there's a place you can go
it's called
(home) that's where you ought to be
(home) with your friends and family
(home) this i do allow
turn back
(home) with kindness and gratitude
(home) benevolent attitude
(home) stand up and take your bow
and come back home.
there's a feeling i get when I’m sober
reliving scenes from my past
sunny days in the yard with the baseball
man those good times went so fast.
cut to the night that you told me you loved me
i never wanted the moment to end
now it's a hundred years later
i wonder what it feels like to be dead
well wherever you are, can you hear me?
i want you to know there's a place you can go
it's called
(home) that's where you ought to be
(home) with your friends and family
(home) this i do allow
turn back
(home) with kindness and gratitude
(home) benevolent attitude
(home) stand up and take your bow
and come back home.
it's just the time I’ve been waiting
alone here waiting
the time I’ve spent waiting here for you
i wonder why I’m left waiting
when there's nothing i can do
nothing i can do
i don't want to wake up
i don't want to wake up
i don't want to wake up now
i don't want to break up
i don't want to break up
a little too late by now to save you
i don't want to shake up
i don't want to shake up
everything i worked for now
i don't want to take up
i don't want to take up
anymore time right now
