Bombs Away

If you want to see what's inside of me
buy a ticket to ride
and hold on tight
but try not to drive from the back seat
If you wanna feel what I'm feelin
Well then Be my guest
but don't expect to
Pry me from the strings that are pulling
But who's gonna stop me
Who's gonna stop me
If you want to know what I stand for
Then sit down and listen
stay on the floor
And please hold all your questions to the end
There's no time to argue about the grey
Trust me you're better off this way
Now get up and get ready to defend
Cuz who's gonna stop me
Who's gonna stop me

To Belong
01:46

Street's on fire
But he walks down the middle
Drops some coins
At the girl with the fiddle
Says "man things have changed,
What's the matter with me?"
Wants to be part of another good mission
Can't go a day without feeding his addiction
Store clerk says, "man, you really oughta head on home,
It's not good for business
When you look so suspicious, you know?"
Man says, "Ok but I don't think the problem's with me"
Wants to tell stories of glory and honor
But since coming home he can't help but just wonder
Wants to be part of something

Ladder
02:16

Seems like the higher we climb
The ladder shakes down beneath us
And if you try to see out ahead
The clouds are timed and there to meet us
I don't know what to do with this pain
Feels like I'm putting myself
Closer to the rain
We cry and we call out
To someone who surely knows
Which way the wind will blow
Faded time fall in line
Just to feel a little lighter
And we rise just to fall
When the weight of another love
Steps to the rung above
Sweaty hands shaky plans
Must have leverage by higher
On the ladder
I don't know how to say goodbye
Bound to the ground
But we all just want to fly
I don't know what to do
With this pain
Feels like I'm putting myself
Closer to the rain

So Am I
02:12
|
|||
I see you cryin
You're dying inside
Fighting for your rights
And your lefts
You're irritated, but so am I
Is there a better time or place
To save some face
You're made as hell, but so am I
So am I
You've had this song in your heart for too long
Fighting for your right to be wrong
Mad as hell, but so am I
Is there a better avenue
To share a space or embrace
Irritated, but so am I

Rain
02:27

Rain please stop in a hurry
We begged of thee
The ground can't hold more water
Nor can the levee
We can see the tides moving in
You wouldn't say how much trouble we're in
Tell me did you know what you were doing
All along
Rain please come in a hurry
We prayed to thee
The sky is orange and grey
With the haze of a blaze
We can see the smoke for miles and miles
We don't wanna have to be exiled
Please tell me did you know what you were doing
All along
We don't want to wait a while
We don't want to be exiled

The News

Something must be done
We're getting overrun
The evils of science
Will meet my defiance
And then I'll be on TV
It's not too late
To throw my weight
No one can stop me now
Here let me show you how
To feel
You'll never kneel
And they will steal
Give me your trust
You'll fight if we must
It's easy as can be
Remember that you're free
And there's no you without liberty
There's no you
Without me

Broken
02:33

Give me a break
I'm already broken
Keep your saving grace
You've already spoken
I mess it up
I do too much
I put my heart in front of my feet
I'm in a rush
So I miss a step
And then my head and body meet
I look around to see if anybody knows it
I look down cause I know I'm not supposed to
Show it
Give me a break
I'm already broken
Keep your saving grace
You've already spoken

Aunt Penny

let’s not get all
hysterical
the dogs are barking
to feed the soul
we have these children
we have this home
we have these things
that come and go
strike a note
pluck a string
it rings on for
eternity
so let’s not get all
hysterical
the dogs are barking
to feed the soul

False Alarm
03:33
|
|||
Am I the same as you
Are you the answer to
My troubled mind and my electric heart
Do you hear the false alarms
From those who string the yarn
Pushed down and pulled into
A world apart
You'll just float away
Like faded flowers
Full of color and tone
I'll swim upstream
I'll take the heat
Go back to being on my own
Is this insanity
What's real just cannot be
Where there's a forest
No one even sees a tree
I'm sure it'll be alright
I'll make it through another night
You'll cry and you'll scream
Not to fight
But I'm so far gone
You'll just float away
Like faded flowers
Full of color and tone
I'll swim upstream
I'll take the heat
Go back to being on my own

A World Apart
01:47

Actions aside
I know that I need you
Here by my side
I would not leave you
I understand
I've not been your man
Our love has gone
But can I keep your hand
Have to be true to ourselves
Not to be fooled by our selfish hearts
