No Escape 03:43
We're all told from a very early age That we need to make more than a livable wage If we want to survive If we want to be worth a damn So we try, we try, yes we try But it won't amount to much in the end And we'll run, we'll run, we'll run So far away We'll run, we'll run, we'll run But we won't get away We'll get caught and dragged Broken and bloody Back to the hell we call Our home Yes they beat us they try to make us all fit Into neat little boxes And damn they've gotten pretty good After decades of this shit So we try, we try We try so fucking hard to fit And we'll cut off any part of our body That don't jive with it We'll run, we'll run, we'll run So far away We'll run, we'll run, we'll run But we won't get away We'll get caught and dragged Broken and bloody Back to the hell we call Our home So we try our best to all conform And to be little angels To be different is insane Or so they say to you and me So we'll try, we'll try, we'll try to conform And give up our own sanity We'll rinse, we'll wash, we'll repeat We'll do it all in the heat of the street It's all right it don't really matter cause We'll see, we'll see it all fade See we eat, we sleep, we shit, we die We work, pay bills, kiss our dreams goodbye It's all we're supposed to do until we kick it We'll run, we'll run, we'll run So far away We'll run, we'll run, we'll run But we won't get away We'll get caught and dragged Broken and bloody Back to the hell we call Our home

If forever isn't ever enough for you I'd find more ever, you know it's true And together we'd be two clever fools Just pull my lever and I'll be your sharpest tool And so remains the soul And so remains the soul And so remains the soul On and on, forevermore I know I'm selfish and a bit immature But no one promised you a clean bill of health I'd die with you a hundred times Before living with anyone else And so remains the soul And so remains the soul And so remains the soul On and on, forevermore If time wasn't on my side I'd be alright if you were If time wasn't on my side I'd be alright if you were If time wasn't on my side I'd be alright if you were If time wasn't on my side I'd be alright if you were And so remains the soul And so remains the soul And so remains the soul On and on, forevermore

Spark 05:20
The taste of love Is hard to define You want the melon But all you get is the rind Sweet is all sour Wet is all dry And you don't even want to give Anyone else a try Your heart's a rich city All full of life But after years of decay You know something just ain't right So you get taken to the outskirts, Dragged by the hand You see the lights flaring up As they start to shine again You got to rise up And get back on your feet You got stand strong Don't give into defeat Cause you know Deep down in your heart Though the lights may be low They'll never lose their spark And as life returns To your cold and dying eyes You whisper a prayer, Knowing this time it ain't a lie Slowly but surely you learn To give your heart away Knowing you're not alone In this life and in this fray Now don't listen to detractors They're all sick of their own schemes They just want to make you miserable Because you dared to dream So hold your head up high And love whoever you want It's better to die for what you believe in Than to live as someone you're not You got to rise up And get back on your feet You got stand strong Don't give into defeat Cause you know Deep down in your heart Though the lights may be low They'll never lose their spark Cause you know Deep down in your heart Though the lights may be low They'll never lose their spark

I have no complaints. The sun slid in through the Living room window, Caressing the hardwood Floors. This was my stage but, All I did was act. I was paid only in pbr And three, thick strips of maple bacon. The audience will never know that as I smiled On that star-lit stage, My breath smelled of Dead pig and cheap beer.

Well there's nothing you can say That'll turn me away I need you in my arms for sure It's all I can do, you know I need you Well I don't know much about love Being so young you see But I want to learn everything About loving free And I know I'll learn it from you You know I love you And there's nothing, Nothing, nothing We can't do You know I love you. There's things in my mind and heart and my soul That I don't really know just how to explain I guess I'm illiterate When it comes to showing my emotions But I'm learning real quick, yes, I'm learning real fast What it takes to make a good, good feeling last And I hope you'll stick around While I figure out the small stuff Oh I feel kind of sick, yes I feel kind of bad When I can't give a damn about what I have and I hope and I pray that these damn feelings go away You know I love you And there's nothing, Nothing, nothing We can't do You know I love you. Well I'm trying real hard, Yes I'm trying the best I can To understand what it takes To be a worthwhile man Scratch that a person of worth, Anything I can do And I'm not to label myself As an erratic mess But I can't understand Why I feel such stress And I don't know what to say Or what I should do You know I love you And there's nothing, Nothing, nothing We can't do You know I love you. Well I'm trying real hard, You know I'll give it my best, But I don't know if I can Just cope with the stress Well I know that's cliché But it's the best I can do And if you find someone better I'll understand if we're through And if you want to know how I feel Just listen to more clichés I say You know I love you And there's nothing, Nothing, nothing We can't do You know I love you. Well I know that's cliché But it's the best I can do And if you find someone better I'll understand if we're through You know I love you You know I love you

Everyday I think of all the dreams I had And every day I change what they mean to me Everyday I think of those same old dreams Knowing most of them will never be What does it matter when nobody cares? And you know you're going nowhere Why should I waste my breath On a halfhearted lie at best? Right, why should I waste my breath? In the end you got to look out for number one You know that’s what they always say In the end I know I'll fail again and again Hoping I’ll succeed some day What does it matter when nobody cares? And you know you're going nowhere Why should I waste my breath On a halfhearted lie at best? Right, why should I waste my breath? What does it matter when nobody cares? And you know you're going nowhere Why should I waste my breath On a halfhearted lie at best?

You can't seem to find your way When the world is all but against you The soft warmth of another's hand Guides you through to another day There's no strength in violence There's no shame in the silence, you won't speak I understand enough To fear your pain The morning comes day after day With nothing changing just growing older And there's nothing left your voice can say The scars on your throat continue to ache There's no strength in violence There's no shame in the silence, you won't speak I understand enough To fear your pain The nagging thought in the back of your mind A memory you wish you could forget A few words and it all comes back In treatment but there's no cure There's no strength in violence There's no shame in the silence, you won't speak I understand enough To fear your pain There's treatment but no cure There's treatment but no cure I understand enough to fear your pain There's treatment but no cure There's treatment but no cure I understand enough to fear your pain

Daydream 03:30
I was dressed in my Sunday's best Looking out the window in an old cafe You walked by with an honest smile And I wish I begged you to stay I knew somewhere we'd meet again And like two children we would play pretend I'd be mesmerized by your eyes And you'd hold me tight in the coldest of nights We'd laugh and drink Our hearts content And bare out souls With no regrets I'll hold your hand Put my heart on the line In this daydream Of mine And it so happened that we met again You asked me if I had even just one ear to lend I said "yes, I do for you," and you smiled back at me Oh honey that's when I knew we started our own fantasy We'd laugh and drink Our hearts content And bare out souls With no regrets I'll hold your hand Put my heart on the line In this daydream Of mine But your heart bled the letters of another lover's name I was just another one you could conquer and claim Just another island on your stream Then I remember that this is just another dream Yes we'd laugh and drink Our heart's content And bare our souls With no regrets I'd hold your hand Put my heart on the line If you'd only Be mine

I had a dream last night That we robbed a department store We killed the manager His blood painted the linoleum floor There was something I wanted to say to you But you were sure that we wouldn't get caught I went back and cleaned up the evidence You didn't wear any gloves Well then a few days went by I wondered if we'd get caught Kept having the same nightmare Kept having the same nightmare Blood was on the linoleum My mind couldn't stand the thought Blood was on the linoleum Oh the thought of us getting caught I had a dream last night That we robbed a department store We killed the manager His blood painted the linoleum floor I can't believe I had the dream again I was wearing dark leather gloves Left no finger prints and broke the cameras You touched everything, with your bare hands I went back and cleaned up your crime I guess I was just along for ride Though I didn't mind seeing that blood Hit that sweet sweet linoleum Blood was on the linoleum My mind couldn't stand the thought Blood was on the linoleum Oh the thought of us getting caught I had a dream last night That we robbed a department store We killed the manager His blood painted the linoleum floor Blood was on the linoleum My mind couldn't stand the thought Blood was on the linoleum Oh the thought of us getting caught

If I'm ever not by your side Not there to hold you tight I'm sorry I apologize I know that ain't right If I'm ever not there to stand Close to you and hold your hand I'm sorry I apologize Just know I tried, know I tried When the clouds, cover the sky And you look up, through tired eyes Tryin' to forget, what you can't lose A wounded heart, all black and blue If you ever think of me Over shirts and worn out jeans I'm sorry I apologize Sometimes time don't fly If you ever feel alone With stale air and mono tone I'm sorry I apologize I didn't mean to leave you so When the clouds, cover the sky And you look up, through tired eyes Tryin' to forget, what you can't lose A wounded heart, all black and blue If I ever leave your side I'm sorry I apologize If you ever feel alone I'm sorry I can't come back home If I ever go away I'm sorry I couldn't stay Wandering minds are meant to be lost And those at home pay their cost Wandering minds are meant to be lost And those at home pay their cost
