All I Know

It's getting late
Don't wanna' drive home
These damn long nights
Keep me mystified
Remind me of something
I just wanna' take back
The sea is nice
But lights take me
Through empty streets
The more she does to me
Don't wanna' see her face
Don't wanna' see her face no more
She calls
One more time
She calls
One more time
And the fire burns
'Cause she's all I know
You're on fire
But you've burned out
I'll tell you facts
About a "Black Dog"
And you'll pretend
To be interested
If she looks back
Don't you notice
You're just too busy with
Another
Just want her to see
Just how pretty you are
She calls
One more time
She calls
One more time
And the fire burns
'Cause she's all I know
And it takes control
'Cause I'll never learn
One step, two steps back
To your front door
I don't miss you at all
Just the place that you're from
Take me back to endless nights
Where you slept on my hands
I won't tell another
About the things that you said
One step, two steps back
It will even itself out
Just another night
I'm forgetting you
If I take it slow
Create new memories
Will these lights all fade
Or will memories glow?

Honesty
04:50

Honesty
Won't let me win
Colours
Don't like the way I bend
Teach me
To fight the way that I care
My lungs broke
The day you fell again
My soul burned off today
It crumbled with the ashes
Of time spent in a daze
With something I can't chase away
Honesty
Won't bite the truth from my hand
And candlelight
Doesn't burn the way it should
Jealousy?
It's in the way that I am
Or envious?
So it's told; how I stand
The pain didn't run away
As quickly as it should have
My soul exists today
Because it's bleedin' on my
Hands
Say what you want
Say what you mean
Didn't think I'd find it myself
Didn't think it over
Head's in a bubble
Head's over heels
Didn't think I'd lose myself
What is it I need?
Lover don't hold me
I am burdened
In your skin
Teach me to hope
Upon the weight of my stance
Lover don't hold me
I am burning
In these eyes
Just tell me one thing
What is it I need?
Say what you want
Oh, say what you mean
Didn't think I'd lose it myself
What is it I mean?
My soul burned off today
It crumbled with the ashes
Of time spent in a daze
With something I can't chase away

Dancing In Her Room
05:58
|

Blue-eyed, she's got
More than diamonds
In her hair
In her hair
Bubble-gum flavoured
Honest and maybe
She'll stay
Floating
In her room again
In her room again
Falls away; you know it
When you see it
Falls away; you know it when
Falls away, you know it
When you see it
Fall again
On my time
Fall again
As she stumbles
Fall again
By my side
Fall today
And she crumbles
Blue-eyed, she's got
Everything
Sorted out
Got no doubt
Let go, let it figure
She'll stay- always dancing
She's gone-
Dancing
In her room again
Dancing shoes again
1, 2, 3, 4, 3, 2-
She's keeping up
Now we gotta fly away
Fall again
On my time
Fall again
As she stumbles
Fall again
By my side
Fall today
And she crumbles
She has given my love away
She has given my love away
She has given my love away
She has given my love away
Heel to the floor
As she dances, she stays
Her honour
Is my pride
Watching her go through
The motions- she swings and
She sways
She's by my side
But I'm so proud;
I forgot yesterday
It seems
My life is fading
My pride is my name
And my daughter's my pride
And she says-
She is whispering to the wind
(Whispering to the wind)
Whispering to the wind
Fall again
On my time
Fall again
And she stumbles

Soldier
06:11

"So"
He says
"My words don't come out right"
So, they say-
That I'm losing my head?"
So don't
Burn out
Too bright
I'll be
Home for
One more night
Stay right here
I'm falling from a high
"Don't walk", they say
I'll walk right through this night
So don't
Burn out
Too bright
I'll be
Home for
One more night
A soldier is born
To the beat of a drum
Lightning strikes
In a place more than once
Soldiers die from cleaning their guns
But the blood stays on
Their hands
Be the role
Of the one you admire
Pleasing god won't
Give you higher praise
Walking through this
Valley of dolls
In the shadows of the days
Let me jump
Let me swoon, let me call
I won't die
I just fight who I love
Let me go
Let me walk out of here
And let all these bridges burn
Let me sing
Let me dance, let me learn
"Will I die
Or will I just get old?"
'Till I know there's a
Lesson you've learned
And let all these bridges burn
So don't
Burn out
Too bright
I'll be
Home for
One more night
Don't
Burn out
Too bright
I'll be
Home for
One more night

Half Full
06:29
|

I am not ready for
I'm not ready for
I'm already half full
I'm already half full
I am not ready for
This drunken romance
'Cause I'm still hollow
I am not ready for
Giving in again
I am not ready for
Taking control
Oh, are you ready for
Giving up on me?
This heart's only borrowed
I am not ready for
Laying down on this bed
Seduction is plentiful
But I'm in trouble now
Oh, are you ready for
'Act II' of this dance?
The frame is set now
You are not ready for
Taking this full-time
You are not ready for
Burning at both ends
Just for one night
I'd rush back into it
But there's nothing left of me
She's got a one up on me
She's got a one up on me
She's got a one up on me
She's got a one up on me...
