He's Got a Gun
03:47

Hey everyone, he’s got a gun, He’s got himself big 44, Hey everyone, look at what he’s done, He’s left them all, on the floor, Hey look at him, he’s hitting the gym, He’s working hard so he can hurt someone, Just a little squeeze, no pretty please, He’ll choke you out, and then go free, They say --- OK --- Nothing done wrong, But we all know --- it’s just a show --- that’s been going on, Too …. Long …. Wrong

Antidote

Its bitter medicine to learn, How easy love can crash and burn, Great big plans at what cost, You rolled the dice and lost. How you feel now, With your dreams torn down, And you’re back on your knees, You gotta look high, And you gotta look low, For the Antidote, to me, cause I left your heart in flame, While you filled your mind to over flow with blame (how’s that workin’ out for ya), Keep telling yourself it’s all about tomorrow, Keep telling yourself – it’s all today. Stop the fire – reach on higher, For the antidote. Paybacks are hell when you’re the one paying, A price too high for anyone, Keep telling yourself it’s all about tomorrow, Keep telling yourself – it’s all today, How you feel now, With your dreams torn down, And you’re back on your knees, You gotta look high, And you gotta look low, For the Antidote.

Under Your Spell
03:34
|

|
When you look into my eyes this way, What can I do, what can I say, If you’re looking out for someone new, If you want someone to say “I love you”, If you want someone who feels the same, Who only wants to ease the pain, I’m under your spell tonight, You can have everything you see, You got control you got the key, If you want someone who can get close
If you need someone an overdose, All you have to do is turn your face, Any man would die to trade his place, I’m under your spell tonight
I’m under your spell tonight. I’m going under, I know you’re gonna break my heart, But like a fool I cannot wait to start again the pain,
I’m under your spell tonight, I’m under your spell tonight

Sleepyhead

Please wake up – Little Sleepy Head, The clouds have gone – the sun is overhead, The morning – has broken through, Your life – waits for you, Turn around and hear the sound, Of the laughing child, Grab the time and you’ll do fine, Just go all wild, Please wake up – Little Sleepy Head, Don’t keep dreams – locked away in your head, Tomorrow – just another chance, Sorrow – waste of time to dance, Please wake up – Little Sleepy Head, Please wake up – Little Sleepy Head, The clouds have gone – the sun is overhead, See the dawning – of a brand new day, Stop your yawning – time to be on our way, Please wake up

Self-fulfilling Prophecy
03:57
|
|||
|
You say might as well not try, there’s no way left to win, You’ re right this is no way to live, We’re abandoned with no more to give, So damn negative, Why don’t we quit and give up now, Might as well throw in the towel (with your), Self-fulfilling Prophecy, You tear it down, yeah you tear it down, You pull it to the ground, You know you tear it down just to break me, How you gonna tell the children, didn’t think it important to try, How you gonna tell we gave in, let our dreams lay down and die, What you did, what you did, If you did, what you did
what you did, what you did, why you do, what’s with you, When you’re bettin’ that we can’t work it out, You know you’re bound to win, A sure bet without no doubt, That we’ll never know what might have been (when you’re), So damn negative, One thing you’re right about, Giving up is giving in (to your) self-fulfilling prophecy

Santa's Got the Blues
03:46
|
|||
|
Do you think its easy, here on my made up throne, Have to be the lone gun, bringing you all your dreams, And all you have to do, is sit there on my lap, And look into my eyes and ask me pretty please, But Santa’s got some bad news, Santa’s got the blues. So you want to be healed, Or the whole world lay revealed, I’m just a man dressed up in a red suit, just a lost soul just like you. Santa’s got some bad news, Santa’s got the blues. If you want some candy, well I can give you that, If you want a toy truck, well matter of fact, But if you want your love back, well so do I, No matter what I look like, I can’t reach the sky. Santa’s got some bad news, Santa’s got the blues.

Blue
03:32

Well you’d have thought by now you’d be riding on a rocket ship to Mars, Looking out the window at a receding earth, a blackness filled with stars, Dreams like the clouds up high, Riding on the wind, blowin’ across the Sky, God I hope it rains today, Cause the rain comes and wash the blue away, Started out as a music man with a long range business plan, But didn’t plan on those bumps in the road that you struggle still to understand, Cause the blue blue blue blue in the sky, Just bounces back a blue blue reflection of me, Cause that blue blue sky, it cannot hide what that blue blue means to me, Well that blue blue blue in the sky, well its way way way up … high, Well you’d have thought by now that Golden Fleece would have washed up on my shore, Instead of all these weeds and an old coke can, I was hoping for a little more

Desert is Gone
04:09
|
|||
|
I’m a lone cowboy, Nobody cares about me, Just a plain cow poke, Nobody brings me any hope, Condemned alone to ride the range, Just because I’m little strange, From a life filled up with pain, Tell me the desert is gone, Day and night blend into one, I need to softly touch someone, Feel the cotton of her dress, Drink the moisture of her breath, In this hole I’m just alive, Day to day I just survive, Until my pass from hell arrives, Can’t tell here who’s left to blame, The innocent or the insane, For this bloody tragendy, And what is left here left of me, Memories of what I’ve seen, The memories of who I’ve been, Drowns in ocean waves of green

More and More
04:07
|
|||
|
Tell me what you want of me, Tell me what you need me to be, Tell me what will bring a change of heart, It’s like talking to a wooden door, That’s been closing more and more, growing wedge tearing us apart, Remember when you loved me then and there, Remember when you loved me more and more and more and more, Remember that you’re never coming home, Let me make it crystal clear, Before you walk too far from here, There’ll be no come crawling back, no none of that, remember dear, You can’t take love and smash it up, tear it down, drown it babe, You’re lonely search to find yourself only circles back to what you left behind, Remember when more and more and more and more was two

Bargain4Love

What do you want from me? What do you need to get you by? What do you need to feel alive inside? All that you bargained for was love. All that you got was pain. Over and over now you’re asking, oh why.

Messing with the Holy
03:24
|
|||
|
No explanation, no alibi, No regeneration, No way to make the sleeping dog rise, It might’ve seemed right, at the time, But now we’re thinking twice, We gave in nothing, watchin’ it rush in, It's another world, It's another world, Tell me you love me, long as you love me, Promise you love me, Don’t try, Tell me you love me, long as you love me, Promise you love me, Don’t lie, Don’t go messing with the holy, Low ammunition, Not nearly enough to prove I’m right, No intermission, No hiding out when things get real uptight, It’s been a proud tradition, to turn away, But now its another world, Up ahead the water they say gets real thin, Rocks around its easy to smash, So easy to give in, So easy to lose your way … and lead to ruin, Its best to know what your doin’, what you’re doing in another world
