Hoodie Allen – The Moment Lyrics
(Uno dos tres, uno uno dos tres)
[Verse 1: Hoodie Allen]
I got these bitches looking at me crazy
The way I work gon' make these other rappers lazy
You keep talking all that talk 'cuz none of that shit phase me
Mother's love me too, they probably bought my shit at Macy's
Hold up babe let me talk for a minute
Never took a deal, what they offering in it?
I don't really care 'cuz I'm all independent
I'm an arrogant American nobody is comparing him –
To Eminem until they heard me flip it like I'm Kerrigan –
And now they ready for it from Long Island out to Maryland
I got a bunch of people singing with me like they're caroling
I'm damn witty, you seem impressed
Yo can you hear me? That's so so def
I'm so so blessed, don't need plans 'cuz I'm so so next
Steve Young flow ‘cuz I go so left
When I dive in the record better hold your breath like *gasp*
I'm a find you a cab
Go home with a bad bitch and leave her man with the tab
You'll still be there when I'm back
'Cuz she in love with my rap songs
I'm trying to live forever 'cuz today don't feel like that long
[Hook: Travis Garland]
Yeah, ain't worried about my problems tonight
'Cuz we'll deal with that shit in the morning
Anywhere you wanna go, baby we can take it slow
I just wanna live in the moment
Just wanna live in the moment
You barely live in the moment
Anywhere you wanna go, baby you should let me know
Maybe you can live in my moment
(Uno dos tres, uno uno dos tres)
[Verse 2: Hoodie Allen]
So many people out here acting selfish
They talking at me like they sorry they can't help it
I said “no worries get that money in a hurry”
Cuz I know that clock is ticking to the minute you ain't selling (nah)
G-d damn I don't think you eating
Got a bowl of Wheaties in my kitchen if I need it I'm a make you feel defeated
Probably hang with JT, bet it that he'll hate me –
--If I tell him that he should go back to "Senorita"
I could probably brag a bit about taking your girl and shit
But it was pretty easy based on the way that you treat her
So do you fam, talk big game
Real life you got a small role, Ving Rhames
Making out with your girl 'cuz I spit game
We could do it on the couch like Rick James
Five fingers to the face shit, it's not basic
I been pacing and been waiting for that opportun—
Say goodbye to your afternoon
Stay at home 'cuz I stay at home, All that Jazz like K. Malone
Girl tell me that she came alone, Got a different meaning, I ain't saying mo'
I'm out of lines and you out of time like Billy Crystal don't analyze me
Only got one life to live and I guarantee we gonna live it wisely
[Hook: Travis Garland]
Yeah, ain't worried about my problems tonight
'Cuz we'll deal with that shit in the morning
Anywhere you wanna go, baby we can take it slow
I just wanna live in the moment
Just wanna live in the moment
You barely live in the moment
Anywhere you wanna go, baby you should let me know
Maybe you can live in my moment

[feat. JJ Peters & Real Bad]
You may be held on a pedestal by few
but the wolves will circle perpetually below you
okay so don’t look down, no don’t you fall
from that high horse looking down upon us all
because a weary step misplaced
could determine your fate
a non-linear, brand new nadir
in a demographic consumed by fear
it’s my kith and kin, my hearth and home
you gonna tell me now that I don’t belong? na
No one can say what we don’t deserve
and no one can say what we’ve yet to earn
I know that this belongs to the young at heart
and this is your catharsis as much as ours
but you can’t both innovate and play it safe
I’d sooner fold and leave than assimilate
in a non-linear, nacent nadir
we’re the the one’s for you to fucking fear.
Let’s see how tall your motherfucking pedestal stands
when we tear it down piece by piece
with our bare fucking hands
real recognise real, we see straight through you
stood the test of time, never changed, paid our dues fool
So when you say you're real,
yo I can’t believe it
‘cause when we say we’re real
you know we really mean it
so when we say you’re fake, you aint gonna say nothing
we see your poker face but aint none of us bluffing
motherfucker
2. Nottingham
'A part of me, apart from me'
I'd be splitting hairs if presented with
a basis to compare to thee
and then you'll give me the third degree
about a stranger you thought had made a pass at me
and so my single decree will soon transpire to be
just for you to fade and finally relinquish me
if you love me so, then let me go
if you love me so, then know I've
Gone to great lengths to pay my due diligence
sacrifice to the point of cardiac impoverishment
but I've been a fool for few lesser things
and I guess it's all to soon to have learned anything
fade and relinquish me
you're not who you could be
Appreciate this for what it is
don't condemn it for what it's not
but if what it is isn't much
then you've got to find a way
to mitigate what you've got.
you're my sunrise, sunset
and all that's in between
that carnal voraciousness
makes dawn and dusk your falling knees
on the residual sides, I cast the die
I was always blind
there was no mutual lens
just endorphins forced with Ritalin
my pretense was sweet, then it rotted my teeth
it started with sialorrhea, now it's killing me
I had to lie;
to say “I understand and it's fine”
you're not supposed to keep score
you can't win every time
so fuck off with that shit
I can't change my past to suit this
and I wouldn't be with you, without it
your belligerent tick.
3. Creasy: I) Styrofoam Lungs
Lines on my face are dense and deepening
by the year, by the month, by the week
are my fears apparent if I don't decide to speak?
the volume of the bottle is multiplied in this;
arcane chemical, a compounded fixation
a self-abhorrent abyss.
Determination takes precedence
in lieu of erstwhile complexes
I'll usurp all that I've fucking earned
and capitalise on my chances
fuck rumination, this segregation is doing me in
and every one of these sycophantic urchins are under my skin
My head is spinning around and around
in a purgatory of wide open mouths
I live in fear of my venial sin
of all that I've done just to get out of this skin
Eyelids half-mast for the death of innocence
"don't forget, that I meant it when I said that
you ain't shit, just a corporate ornament"
in a bottomless well of embellishment and lies
who survives? who will validate their lives?
I know they all go behind my back
then why do they just get away with that?
its the way they are, throwing underhanded
but it's your own fault, you don't understand it
I don't understand but I've tried all my life
you need to forget them and cut all the ties
this just isn't working, I've suffered enough
embrace what you are and forget what you're not
Suffer my griefs and dream my dreams
authored in their entirety by this disease
it was this ailment that clung to the pen
that guided my wrist and moved my hand
I forgot you, remember that
4. Creasy: II) Technicolour Yawn
5. Ghoul
it wasn't just embezzlement, you thieving witch, you don't know the half of it.
we've been in and out of near destitution,
terrified and disillusioned.
all of this on your wretched hands, you tore apart a family man.
so he took a drink and then the drink took him.
and its been this way nearly each night since.
incredulous, track back, cheques bounce, façade cracks, we will fall apart, you open your scars.
lost in the dark, we fall you'll soon beg to be set free and see.
my family stand tall with me.
but you'll never get that chance.
this is all that you have left, how could you laugh as you watched us all fall apart?
two children lost in the dark.
the robbed that smiles, steals something from the thief, scratch and claw, through tooth and nail, but you will never take integrity from me.
I earned to listen and I listened well.
to a steady slew of trivial pleasures, with nothing left to kindle the blood.
but a sordid tryst, a yielding to lust you fucked it up, so back to back, you cover your tracks, but remember when you cant hide from us.
hither at the end of the river.
lave in the burning shambles, perceived as fools, you played us all, you answer to the coven call, you're hand in hand amidst the ghouls.
I hope you hear this in your sleep.
when in your dreams you cannot breath.
you'll look up and you'll see me.
taking back the youth that you stole from me .
my fathers hands used to shake.
6. Lie
Not understated, understand it
each pitch thrown was underhanded
denunciation, segregation
new tricks of the tirade, not a question
fuck your template, just remember
who was the first out that gate
and don't you think you had us all
pushed aside, kept at bay.
Dressed in silk, just the same
you'll lie tomorrow as you lie today
you'll lie, lie, lie, lie
to all their faces and you'll lie to mine
Beg for mercy, go
Ayo so are you listening?
or just waiting to talk
this is just step two of exposing you
to the rest of the world
okay so take that, step back
take the time to see all that you lack
it's so easy to critique
why don't you try to create
step two.
7. Polyphasic Sleep: I) Aurora
all that you retrieve my prolong our reprieve.
but the of letting go still scares the shit out of me.
I'll always hoard inconsequential things, I'm a glutton for the penance, I've retained all the apathy.
I covet nostalgia and the hurt it.
brings.
bring it back to me, just bring it back now.
so I've given small hours to soliloquy.
I can never seem to sleep, but only contemplate madly.
to antagonize that hurt in me.
antagonize it all, and I start to crawl.
you have been my friend, through all of this, and to me that alone is a tremendous thing.
hear our Indian summer sing.
we are incandescent on the eaves.
has it been so long since that sweet chariot swung so ow overhead.
and took each of our breaths.
with no penance there's no dept, I'd missed the teeth that fit my old wounds.
I know I need to let it go, I just can't forget it, and I drowned in the amphetamine monsoon, some years had passed before I came to see, I was blinded by the lies, I just can't forget it .
that those bite marks, they fit my own teeth, so what of my friend?
alone and confined to a hospital bed.
reticent, sacrosanct, we will all go along, and if you leave us so, then you have done us so wrong.
just keep on, I will edify, all who stuck by our side, faces illumined by a new, and surreal sunlight, death took precedence over faith in old dreams, the more I give away, the more delighted I became .
I will bring you light and I'll endure the burn, unashamed, reach out ear me now.
our voices ring out the same.
8. Polyphasic Sleep: II) Indian Summer
9. Comedy Of Errors
there's a filth on me that I cannot clean, and there's a shame in me that is seldom seen, I'm the thick, stale breath of self abhorrence, masticated for a day and ensconced between, plaque-ridden, rotten, yellow teeth, my eye lids weigh me down and I'm succumb to sleep.
if I'd permit myself the time, but procrastination is most beguiling in the night.
I discover how full of shit I really am, devoid of a moral compass or a viable plan.
grain of salt, grain of sand, all is for nothing, nothing at all.
I cant trust myself to suffer the fall .
the smoke stains my skin.
permeates through my pores, solidify my ire into cancerous dire.
it sits right in my stomach .
it claws at my throat.
I'm retching by the hour.
I'm all alone.
my lovers repugnance was hard earned.
and my friends slander is well deserved, with my war gait, worn knees give way to the cynicism, all melts away in the flame.
and all else melts away in the cynic flame, I'm burning, an epidemic of ignorance spreads through the youth.
but you'll feign indifference, undermine the truth, so you've got the vision, then pave the way, for the next new noise to take conjectures place.
take the sordid place, take it.
10. Mea Culpa
vagrancy brushed off his bloom in the first sap of his spring.
he lost the vigour of his youth and the fair red of his cheeks, he cannot see, just let me breath or cease to be, I'm so fucking sick of living in between, life like a bone was emptied of its marrow inside, and my slender had been calibrated by young and fertile minds,
study the greats, learn the world, tell the truth and confide - I lied.
lost in those mundanes.
in that every-day minutia.
I just gave myself to heartache.
to the ubiquitous confusion.
infamita, my anathema, I tore out that fucking catheter, I'll plunge figures between stitches.
no kitschy backhand pitches.
I know one must make himself ugly.
to expose the ugliness he sees.
torn, I know my innermost torture is yours.
but I've learned, now I've grown, a fool dressed in silk, is a fool just the same.
but is a fool yesterday, no less a fool today?
we can change.
dear friends, we're one and the same, vagrancy brushed off his bloom, in the firsed sap of spring, hear the Indian summer sing.
11. 23
The world has changed its aspect because I willed it so.
In the infinitude of its scope - I am free to roam, I'm free.
So keep tour wooden world in your sleeve.
And not for anything, should you stop running.
Mother, please forgive me.
Father, listen to me now.
Brother can't you hear the inexorable sound?
The march of time drawing close.
Just like a phalanx of ghosts.
I was eating crow for a good eight months.
Before I found the good sense to regurgitate it all up.
These are still salad days, the rudimentary runs.
And there's not a fucking thing to keep you from what's yet to come.
You're free. So keep your wooden world in your sleeve.
And not for anything should you stop running.
I know a liberation that so many don't.
And I've felt a camaraderie that so many won't.
I believe that the rat race will put ice in your heart.
And I know not to take my dreams for granted.
If I don't want them to fall apart.
(I know hindsight can relieve but it won't set you free. Let it go now, no)
I know a liberation that so many don't.
Just knowing that we'll never run out of road.
Hindsight can relieve but it won't set you free.
These contemporary lies are no longer bothering me.
I'll never squander ever waning youth.
The bullshit doesn't matter because you've always got you.

HUDSON TAYLOR Singing For Strangers LYRICS
HUDSON TAYLOR Singing For Strangers LYRICS
album: "Singing For Strangers" (2015)
Just A Thought
Whoa oh oh oh ohhh
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
I'm not as scared as I feel
In fact I'm totally petrified
You took your hand off the wheel
Why can't we ever be unified?
And you throw it all away to help how you feel
Well you never can explain when nothing is real
It's just the thought
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
That you were lost
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
There's not a lot I can tell ya'
(Whoa oh oh oh oh)
When you decided it was a fleeting thought
(Whoa oh oh oh oh oh)
That you were lost
I shot myself in the foot
Oh what's a cry s'posed to signify?
And all the time I was hooked
You took the "I" out of unify
And you throw it all away to help how you feel
Well you never can explain when nothing is real
It's just the thought
Whoa oh oh oh oh
That you were lost
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
There's not a lot I can tell ya'
(Whoa oh oh oh oh)
When you decided it was a fleeting thought
(Whoa oh oh oh oh oh)
That you were lost
Get right out, get right out of my head
Get right out, get right out of my head
I dreamt that you'd come save me
You'd come help me when I needed a friend
I dreamt that you'd come save me
And in the end we are free
When all the traces of trust are gone
And you never can explain when nothing is real
It's just the thought
Whoa oh oh oh oh
That you were lost
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
There's not a lot I can tell ya'
(Whoa oh oh oh oh)
When you decided it was a fleeting thought
(Whoa oh oh oh oh oh)
That you were lost
A fleeting thought
(Whoa oh oh oh oh)
That you were lost
A fleeting thought
(Whoa oh oh oh oh oh)
That you were lost

Butterflies
Just a touch on the shoulder I'm passing out
Wish I could of told her I'm freaking out
For I have been poisoned by butterflies
I have been stared blankly by those eyes
Ooohhh ooohhh
What don't kill only makes us stronger, well I guess I'm stronger now
What don't kill only makes us stronger, well I guess I'm stronger now
Just a weep in the willow I'm terrified
My head on a pillow of pesticides
For I have been killing those butterflies
Is that what I'm willing to Sacrifice, to sacrifice, to sacrifice
Ooohhh ooohhh
What don't kill only makes us stronger, well I guess I'm stronger now
Ooohhh ooohhh
What don't kill only makes us stronger, well I guess I'm stronger now
What don't kill only makes us stronger, well I guess I'm stronger
Nowww
Roll with whatever flows or comes my way I always say
Roll with whatever flows or comes my way I always say
Roll with whatever flows or comes my way I always say
Roll with whatever flows or comes my way I always say

Chasing Rubies
Take me away to some place else
'Cause I don't want to see you with anybody else
Maybe I'm selfish, I don't know
I hardly know you
And I don't want to let you go
And I don't want to let you go
This is not deja vu
I've never met somebody like you
I'd like to tell you the truth
I hardly know you
And I don't want to let you go
And I don't want to let you go
Chasing rubies, chasing gold
I'd like to tell you before you're told
Maybe I'm crazy, I think so
I hardly know you
And I don't want to let you go
And I don't want to let you go
This is not deja vu
I've never somebody like you
I'd like to tell you the truth
I hardly know you
And I don't want to let you go
And I don't want to let you go
What if you don't like me
What if I'm being naive
Maybe it's love, sure I don't know
I hardly know you
And I don't want to let you go

Night Before The Morning After
When I broke into your heart
Oh, I threw away the key
So tell me what you see
Oh, a lover or a thief
Another night of destruction
What have I done to hurt you
My body is not functioning
The way it's meant to
Turn the light on, tell the truth
Be a man before it gets back to you
Another morning, another day
Last night fades away
When she's staring at me
My heart forgets to keep the beat
The night before the morning after
When I broke into your heart
Oh, I threw away the key
So tell me what you see
Oh, a lover or a thief
Another sight of disillusion
What did you see that hurts you
Tell the tale now, turn the page
Be a man before it gets too late
Another morning, what can I say?
Last night fades away
The night before the morning after
When I broke into your heart
Oh, I threw away the key
So tell me what you see
Oh, a lover or a thief
And when I think about it now
Oh, I really let you down
So tell me what you see
Oh, a lover or a thief
You can read it in tomorrow's papers
But it's written here all over my face
It hasn't happened yet
There's a feeling I regret
I'm guilty of a robbery
About to take place
Ohhh, ohh-ohh, oo-woah ohh, ohh oh
When I broke into your heart
Oh, I threw away the key
So tell me what you see
Oh, a lover or a thief
And when I think about it now
Oh, I really let you down
So tell me what you see
Oh, a lover or a thief
So tell me what you see
Oh, a lover or a thief
So tell me what you see
Oh, a lover or a thief

World Without You
You don't know what you've been missing out on
I've been waiting around for you to call
You don't know what you've been missing out on
You know I'm not a ghost, just come around
If I'd have listened to that fortune cooky wisdom
I'd have been a whole lot better off
But still I live with this constant light on
To show you the way back home
Do you know what it feels like to fall in your arms
Do you know what it feels like to love you,
I can taste every tear drop you've given me this far
Don't forget who it is that you are
Did you take a class on who to, take a class on who to be friends with?
Cos now I know you're with them, and we are not just sunday love
You said I talk the talk but don't walk it, but all in all you just left me out
But don't you know that I'm nothing,
without you I'm just suffering for you now
Do you know what it feels like to fall in your arms
Do you know what it feels like to love you,
I can taste every tear drop you've given me this far
Don't forget who it is that you are
A world without you, what would I do, what would I do without you
A world without you, what would I do, what would I do without you
Do you know what it feels like to fall in your arms
Do you know what it feels like to love you,
I can taste every tear drop you've given me this far
Don't forget who it is that you are

Wildfires
When you face 28 thousand doorways,
or you laugh hoping for an escape,
when you day is 24 hours of heartache,
well show me the way you pray
You know that it’s not your fate, not today
When the wildfires leave you no way out,
I’ll scream up to the sky with you
When the wildfires leave you no way out,
my door is always open to you
Another day with millions of different people,
starting to lose their heads,
forgetting to be themselves, what else
Do you know you’re someone I wanna be with
You're someone that’s just themselves
You know you can cry for help, I’ll be waiting
When the wildfires leave you no way out,
I’ll scream up to the sky with you
When the wildfires leave you no way out,
my door is always open to you
In the wildfire [x4]
And if you feel that you're unraveling,
and if there's nothing you can do,
and if you feel it overlapping
When the time comes I’ll say to you [x2]
When the wildfires leave you no way out,
I’ll scream up to the sky with you
When the wildfires leave you no way out,
my door is always open to you
In the wildfire [x4]

You wound up tight in your full attire
You don't know why, but you wanna fight
If I could show you the view from the other side

Put down your weapons
Let's be defenceless
Surrender your love your love your love

Speak to me,
Won't you let it rise?
It'll cause you pain

From the hopeless day to the sleepless night

Care
You're not undercover,
you're just connected to the shame,
Of your secret lover,
it never works out in the end.
If it keeps on going,
you might lose your only friend.
It's all connected baby,
it's all connected to our brains,
Think a little harder,
when your feeling all alone.
For heaven's sake I have been screaming at you all the time.
It makes no sense how he treats you,
how could you miss the signs.
He's been cheating on you,
messin' with your head.
I only say it cause I care.
Maybe I dream about you,
maybe I'm too afraid to say,
I think about you every second of the day.
He's a hypocrite
and he should be locked up in a cage.
Its all connected baby,
its all connected to out brains.
Think a little harder,
when your feeling all alone.
For heaven's sake I have been screaming at you all the time.
It makes no sense how he treats you,

He's been cheating on you,

Battles
I was climbing, now I'm falling
I've been pushed off by a man
Who has made it to the top
And now defends it 'cause he can
And I have found a breach in his front line
I was open, now I'm hidden
From the danger of his words
I have found a good position
And I'll play for what he's worth, and he will find
Nowhere left to hide
I will lift her love and I'll break your spirit
I will dig a hole and I'll throw you in it
Only time will tell if we're all just cynics on the run
If we're all just cynics come undone
I was losing, now we're drawing
I'm not afraid to draw my blood
I'm not backing down
So I'd surrender 'cause you should
And face the truth
You raise the flag, I'll tear it down
Though you may have won the battle
But I'll take the fight to you
And your flag is on the ground
And your bones they rattle too
'Cause I'll break you
Your fear has now come true
I will lift her love and I'll break your spirit
I will dig a hole and I'll throw you in it
Only time will tell if we're all just cynics on the run
If we're all just cynics come undone
All just waiting for the gun
We are tied to the truth
The tie that binds me to you
I'm acting on my words
With all that I have heard
With honesty in mind
You will find
That I'm not the liar
See the truth in my eyes
No, I'm not the liar
See the truth in my eyes
I will lift her love and I'll break your spirit
I will dig a hole and I'll throw you in it
Only time will tell if we're all just cynics on the run
I will lift her love and I'll break your spirit
I will dig a hole and I'll throw you in it
Only time will tell if we're all just cynics on the run
if we're all just cynics come undone

For The Last Time
Hey, how does it feel to get what you want?
To get what you need for the first time?
We came so far, you gave me a fistful of sorrow
And a broken heart, too bad, to steal, to borrow
You spoke your mind straight through my heart like an arrow
I can't rewind, rewind for tomorrow
Hey, how does it feel to get what you want?
To get what you need for the first time?
Hey, I did what you said, I hung on the line
Down on my knees for the last time
You cried, I burned, we still don't learn our lesson
We take our turn, we trade our in-discussions
Enough said, enough done, do you understand the question
I ask? How come it won't be your last confession?
Hey, how does it feel to get what you want?
To get what you need for the first time?
Hey, I did what you said, I hung on the line
Down on my knees for the last time
For the last time, for the last time, for the last time
You said I'll never be happy by myself (for the last time)
But I was lonely beyond regret (for the last time)
Leavin' you standing there (for the last time)
Never knew what I was missing (for the last time)

Off The Hook
Are you taking me for a ride?
If so, I won't be by your side
Maybe once I looked up to you
Thought I loved you but
Now it's time to confess
Take one, you gotta take us all
Try to break us, we won't fall
Can't believe I looked up to you
Thought I loved you but
Now it's time to confess
What were you thinking
You'd get off the hook with no pain?
You won't defeat us so treat us
Like children again
True blood is wearing thin
We all know what hides within
Told you once, no means never
And that's forever
You don't have our respect
Take one, you gotta take us all
Try to break us, we won't fall
Can't you tell no means never
That's forever and no, you can't buy respect
What were you thinking
You'd get off the hook with no pain?
You won't defeat us so treat us
Like children again
The truth is our!
(What were you thinking you'd get off the hook)
Oh, shout it out!
(What were you thinking you'd get off the hook)
Oh, the truth is out, the jury's in
You should notice by now, don't you know what she means to me?

You'd get off the hook with no pain?

Drop In The Ocean
People break too easily
Myself included don't you see
You think you've landed everything
The best of times come with a sting.
I'm a drop in the ocean, I
Live my life, on a wave of emotion and
Now it's time to find someone to call my own
Is there someone to call my own
Good times never happened slow
It was great while it lasted, I hope you know
Lie back and catch my breath
Welcome home to my former self.
I'm a drop in the ocean, I
Live my life, on a wave of emotion and
Now it's time to find someone to call my own
Is there someone to call my own.
It's just a thought that I throw on the ocean
Suddenly we're at the stage where all I know
Is rugged rage and words that blaze into the bone
I don't want a world at war, so let me go
It's just a drop that I thought that I throw on the ocean
Just a thought that I throw on the ocean.
I'm a drop in the ocean, I
Live my life, on a wave of emotion and

Beautiful Mistake
Heavy footsteps in my boots
Will I be the one you choose
I keep chasing hope away
too proud to try and make a change
If I had the chance
I'd take the words right back
& turn it all around
Never let you down
I don't want us to break
into a beautiful mistake
All the confidence I lacked
You gave back in just two weeks
I don't wanna be your ghost anymore
always dragging up the past
Waiting for the moment
When we can make things right
Waiting for the moment
Forgiveness in your eyes

I played the game but forgot the clues
You can't evict me, my life is still there
Now that I've lost my home, I could go anywhere
There was no place like home
Yeah, there was no place like home
There was no place like home!
There was no place like home!

Second Best
All the people all around us
Talking to and all about us
It’s the same
It will go away
Are you trying to be helpful?
Are you sleeping in the devils company?
Possibly
Don’t wake me up
I’m not sleeping
I’m not asking for any rest
And as long as I am breathing
I won’t settle for second best
We can teach ourselves the lessons
And we can change it any second of the day
We used to say
Are you trying to be helpful?
Are you sleeping in the devils company?
Possibly
Don’t wake me up I’m not sleeping
I’m not asking for any rest
And as long as I am breathing
I won’t settle for second best
Love the life that we don’t have
I wouldn’t change a thing
Not much but we don’t mind
I wouldn’t change a thing
Love the life that we don’t have
I wouldn’t change at all
Not much but we don’t mind
I wouldn’t change at all
Don’t wake me up
I’m not sleeping
I’m not asking for any rest
And as long as I am breathing
I won’t settle for second best
Don’t wake me up
I’m not sleeping
I’m not asking for any rest
And as long as I am breathing
I won’t settle for second best
I’m not asking for any rest

Don't Know Why
I wanna go home, I wanna get out.
Come out from under my shadow, but I'm not allowed.
I wanna forgive, I wanna forget.
Say goodbye to my comfort...
I don't know why and I don't know when, I need you now like I needed you then.
I wanna be young.
Don't wanna grow old.
I think to much of my future, break the mold.
I'm dreaming of sin but where to begin?
I'll be like this forever...
I don't know why and I don't know when, I need you now like I needed you then.
I don't know why and I don't know when, I need you now like I needed you then.
I wanna go out, don't wanna stay in.
I'll be like this forever to complete my sin.
I wanna be true, just like you.
Don't wanna be a liar...
I don't know why and I don't know when, I need you now like I needed you then.
I don't know why and I don't know when, I need you now like I needed you then.
I don't know why and I don't know when, I need you now like I needed you then.
So keep your dream, keep your pain, keep it under your conscience, stay in from the rain...
I wanna be cool, just like you.
I wanna be together...
I don't know why and I don't know when, I need you now like I needed you then.
I don't know why and I don't know when, I need you now like I needed you then.
I don't know why and I don't know when, I need you now like I needed you, now like I needed you, now like
I needed you then

Just A Thought
Whoa oh oh oh ohhh
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
I'm not as scared as I feel
In fact I'm totally petrified
You took your hand off the wheel
Why can't we ever be unified?
And you throw it all away to help how you feel
Well you never can explain when nothing is real
It's just the thought
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
That you were lost
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
There's not a lot I can tell ya'
(Whoa oh oh oh oh)
When you decided it was a fleeting thought
(Whoa oh oh oh oh oh)
That you were lost
I shot myself in the foot
Oh what's a cry s'posed to signify?
And all the time I was hooked
You took the "I" out of unify
And you throw it all away to help how you feel
Well you never can explain when nothing is real
It's just the thought
Whoa oh oh oh oh
That you were lost
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
There's not a lot I can tell ya'
(Whoa oh oh oh oh)
When you decided it was a fleeting thought
(Whoa oh oh oh oh oh)
That you were lost
Get right out, get right out of my head
Get right out, get right out of my head
I dreamt that you'd come save me
You'd come help me when I needed a friend
I dreamt that you'd come save me
And in the end we are free
When all the traces of trust are gone
And you never can explain when nothing is real
It's just the thought
Whoa oh oh oh oh
That you were lost
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
There's not a lot I can tell ya'
(Whoa oh oh oh oh)
When you decided it was a fleeting thought
(Whoa oh oh oh oh oh)
That you were lost
A fleeting thought
(Whoa oh oh oh oh)
That you were lost
A fleeting thought
(Whoa oh oh oh oh oh)
That you were lost

Butterflies
Just a touch on the shoulder I'm passing out
Wish I could of told her I'm freaking out
For I have been poisoned by butterflies
I have been stared blankly by those eyes
Ooohhh ooohhh
What don't kill only makes us stronger, well I guess I'm stronger now
What don't kill only makes us stronger, well I guess I'm stronger now
Just a weep in the willow I'm terrified
My head on a pillow of pesticides
For I have been killing those butterflies
Is that what I'm willing to Sacrifice, to sacrifice, to sacrifice
Ooohhh ooohhh

Chasing Rubies
Take me away to some place else
'Cause I don't want to see you with anybody else
Maybe I'm selfish, I don't know

This is not deja vu

Night Before The Morning After
When I broke into your heart
Oh, I threw away the key
So tell me what you see
Oh, a lover or a thief
Another night of destruction
What have I done to hurt you
My body is not functioning
The way it's meant to
Turn the light on, tell the truth
Be a man before it gets back to you
Another morning, another day
Last night fades away
When she's staring at me
My heart forgets to keep the beat
The night before the morning after
When I broke into your heart
Oh, I threw away the key
So tell me what you see
Oh, a lover or a thief
Another sight of disillusion
What did you see that hurts you
Tell the tale now, turn the page
Be a man before it gets too late
Another morning, what can I say?
Last night fades away
The night before the morning after
When I broke into your heart
Oh, I threw away the key
So tell me what you see
Oh, a lover or a thief
And when I think about it now
Oh, I really let you down
So tell me what you see
Oh, a lover or a thief
You can read it in tomorrow's papers
But it's written here all over my face
It hasn't happened yet
There's a feeling I regret
I'm guilty of a robbery
About to take place
Ohhh, ohh-ohh, oo-woah ohh, ohh oh
When I broke into your heart
Oh, I threw away the key
So tell me what you see
Oh, a lover or a thief
And when I think about it now
Oh, I really let you down
So tell me what you see
Oh, a lover or a thief
So tell me what you see
Oh, a lover or a thief
So tell me what you see
Oh, a lover or a thief

World Without You
You don't know what you've been missing out on
I've been waiting around for you to call
You don't know what you've been missing out on
You know I'm not a ghost, just come around
If I'd have listened to that fortune cooky wisdom
I'd have been a whole lot better off
But still I live with this constant light on
To show you the way back home
Do you know what it feels like to fall in your arms
Do you know what it feels like to love you,
I can taste every tear drop you've given me this far
Don't forget who it is that you are
Did you take a class on who to, take a class on who to be friends with?
Cos now I know you're with them, and we are not just sunday love
You said I talk the talk but don't walk it, but all in all you just left me out
But don't you know that I'm nothing,
without you I'm just suffering for you now
Do you know what it feels like to fall in your arms
Do you know what it feels like to love you,
I can taste every tear drop you've given me this far
Don't forget who it is that you are
A world without you, what would I do, what would I do without you
A world without you, what would I do, what would I do without you
Do you know what it feels like to fall in your arms
Do you know what it feels like to love you,
I can taste every tear drop you've given me this far
Don't forget who it is that you are

Wildfires
When you face 28 thousand doorways,
or you laugh hoping for an escape,
when you day is 24 hours of heartache,
well show me the way you pray
You know that it’s not your fate, not today
When the wildfires leave you no way out,
I’ll scream up to the sky with you
When the wildfires leave you no way out,
my door is always open to you
Another day with millions of different people,
starting to lose their heads,
forgetting to be themselves, what else
Do you know you’re someone I wanna be with
You're someone that’s just themselves
You know you can cry for help, I’ll be waiting
When the wildfires leave you no way out,
I’ll scream up to the sky with you
When the wildfires leave you no way out,
my door is always open to you
In the wildfire [x4]
And if you feel that you're unraveling,
and if there's nothing you can do,
and if you feel it overlapping
When the time comes I’ll say to you [x2]
When the wildfires leave you no way out,
I’ll scream up to the sky with you
When the wildfires leave you no way out,
my door is always open to you
In the wildfire [x4]

I can't find where you hide,
You wound up tight in your full attire
You don't know why, but you wanna fight
If I could show you the view from the other side
This is the view from the other side.
Put down your weapons
Let's be defenceless
Surrender your love your love your love
No more secrets secrets secrets.
Speak to me,
Won't you let it rise?
It'll cause you pain
It'll make you cry
From the hopeless day to the sleepless night
I will show you the view from the other side

Surrender your love your love your love

This is how it is when it all gets wild
You can hit me hard
Hit me hard as you like
If only you could see it through my own two eyes
You could see the view from the other side,
This is how it is when it all gets wild
You can hit me hard
Hit me hard as you like

Care
You're not undercover,
you're just connected to the shame,
Of your secret lover,
it never works out in the end.
If it keeps on going,
you might lose your only friend.
It's all connected baby,
it's all connected to our brains,
Think a little harder,
when your feeling all alone.
For heaven's sake I have been screaming at you all the time.
It makes no sense how he treats you,
how could you miss the signs.
He's been cheating on you,
messin' with your head.
I only say it cause I care.
Maybe I dream about you,
maybe I'm too afraid to say,
I think about you every second of the day.
He's a hypocrite
and he should be locked up in a cage.
Its all connected baby,
its all connected to out brains.
Think a little harder,
when your feeling all alone.
For heaven's sake I have been screaming at you all the time.
It makes no sense how he treats you,
how could you miss the signs.
He's been cheating on you,
messin' with your head.
I only say it cause I care,

Battles
I was climbing, now I'm falling
I've been pushed off by a man
Who has made it to the top
And now defends it 'cause he can
And I have found a breach in his front line
I was open, now I'm hidden
From the danger of his words
I have found a good position
And I'll play for what he's worth, and he will find
Nowhere left to hide
I will lift her love and I'll break your spirit
I will dig a hole and I'll throw you in it
Only time will tell if we're all just cynics on the run
If we're all just cynics come undone
I was losing, now we're drawing
I'm not afraid to draw my blood
I'm not backing down
So I'd surrender 'cause you should
And face the truth
You raise the flag, I'll tear it down
Though you may have won the battle
But I'll take the fight to you
And your flag is on the ground
And your bones they rattle too
'Cause I'll break you
Your fear has now come true
I will lift her love and I'll break your spirit
I will dig a hole and I'll throw you in it
Only time will tell if we're all just cynics on the run
If we're all just cynics come undone
All just waiting for the gun
We are tied to the truth
The tie that binds me to you
I'm acting on my words
With all that I have heard
With honesty in mind
You will find
That I'm not the liar
See the truth in my eyes
No, I'm not the liar
See the truth in my eyes
I will lift her love and I'll break your spirit
I will dig a hole and I'll throw you in it
Only time will tell if we're all just cynics on the run
I will lift her love and I'll break your spirit
I will dig a hole and I'll throw you in it
Only time will tell if we're all just cynics on the run

For The Last Time
Hey, how does it feel to get what you want?
To get what you need for the first time?
We came so far, you gave me a fistful of sorrow
And a broken heart, too bad, to steal, to borrow
You spoke your mind straight through my heart like an arrow
I can't rewind, rewind for tomorrow
Hey, how does it feel to get what you want?
To get what you need for the first time?
Hey, I did what you said, I hung on the line
Down on my knees for the last time
You cried, I burned, we still don't learn our lesson
We take our turn, we trade our in-discussions
Enough said, enough done, do you understand the question
I ask? How come it won't be your last confession?
Hey, how does it feel to get what you want?
To get what you need for the first time?
Hey, I did what you said, I hung on the line
Down on my knees for the last time
For the last time, for the last time, for the last time
You said I'll never be happy by myself (for the last time)
But I was lonely beyond regret (for the last time)
Leavin' you standing there (for the last time)
Never knew what I was missing (for the last time)

Off The Hook
Are you taking me for a ride?
If so, I won't be by your side
Maybe once I looked up to you
Thought I loved you but
Now it's time to confess
Take one, you gotta take us all
Try to break us, we won't fall
Can't believe I looked up to you
Thought I loved you but
Now it's time to confess
What were you thinking
You'd get off the hook with no pain?
You won't defeat us so treat us
Like children again
True blood is wearing thin
We all know what hides within
Told you once, no means never
And that's forever
You don't have our respect
Take one, you gotta take us all
Try to break us, we won't fall
Can't you tell no means never
That's forever and no, you can't buy respect
What were you thinking
You'd get off the hook with no pain?
You won't defeat us so treat us
Like children again
The truth is our!
(What were you thinking you'd get off the hook)
Oh, shout it out!
(What were you thinking you'd get off the hook)
Oh, the truth is out, the jury's in
You should notice by now, don't you know what she means to me?
What were you thinking
You'd get off the hook with no pain?
You won't defeat us so treat us

Drop In The Ocean
People break too easily
Myself included don't you see
You think you've landed everything
The best of times come with a sting.
I'm a drop in the ocean, I
Live my life, on a wave of emotion and
Now it's time to find someone to call my own
Is there someone to call my own
Good times never happened slow
It was great while it lasted, I hope you know
Lie back and catch my breath
Welcome home to my former self.
I'm a drop in the ocean, I
Live my life, on a wave of emotion and
Now it's time to find someone to call my own
Is there someone to call my own.
It's just a thought that I throw on the ocean
Suddenly we're at the stage where all I know
Is rugged rage and words that blaze into the bone
I don't want a world at war, so let me go
It's just a drop that I thought that I throw on the ocean
Just a thought that I throw on the ocean.
I'm a drop in the ocean, I
Live my life, on a wave of emotion and
Now it's time to find someone to call my
Someone to call my
Is there someone to call my own
It's just a thought that I throw on the ocean.

Holly
Parks been closed, barbed wires on the fences,
There's no one hanging round, since they ripped out the soul of the town,
Shut down, closed every alteration,
Theres people leaving home with bags at the station,
And underneath the pale, grey sky is no place for a girl,
like you in this life,
And all of this time, I wonder how you're survivin',
And I scream your name,
Holly, (holly),
hey, can you hear me? (hey?)
Get out alive (get out alive),
I'll be seeing you soon,
where the roses won't die
How longs it been since I walked you down to the shore?
Through the market, in the rain, yeah, that was before,
The tide turned and broke every bodies spirt,
It went out and took everybody with it
And underneath the pale, grey sky is no place for a girl,
like you in this life,
And all of this time, I wonder how you're survivin',
And I scream your name,
Holly, (holly),
hey can you hear me? (Hey, can you hear me?)
Get out alive (get out alive),
I'll be seeing you soon,
where the roses won't die
Oh oh ooooh, oh oh,
Oh oh ooooh oh oh,
Got your whole life ahead of you,
So don't let lies and hatred get to you,
Holly?, (Holly),
hey, can you hear me? (Hey, holly, can you hear me?)
You'll get out alive (get out alive),
I'll be seeing you soon,
where the roses won't die,
Holly, hey, can you hear me?
You'll get out alive,
I'll be seeing you soon,
Where the roses won't die,
Where the roses won't die,
Where the roses won't die.

Beautiful Mistake
Heavy footsteps in my boots
Will I be the one you choose
I keep chasing hope away
too proud to try and make a change
If I had the chance
I'd take the words right back
& turn it all around
Never let you down
I don't want us to break
into a beautiful mistake
All the confidence I lacked
You gave back in just two weeks
I don't wanna be your ghost anymore
always dragging up the past
Waiting for the moment
When we can make things right
Waiting for the moment
Forgiveness in your eyes

Trouble Town
Troubles find their way home
What goes up must come down
Thoughts will always be with me
All the way to troubled town
Where I sit and watch the flowers grow
When I have nowhere else to go
Words can show their face here
And lie down next to me
My thoughts will always be here
All the way to troubled street
Where I people watch and write it down
Where I'm the only man in town
Where I sit and watch those flowers grow
When I have nowhere else to go
I'll find my way
I'll find my calling
My way to be proud
In trouble town [x4]
Where I people watch and write it down
Where I'm the only man in town
Where I sit and watch those flowers grow
When I have nowhere else to go

The Place I Called Home
I miss the place that I call home
I miss the place that I was gonna crawl, oh
So I tap my red shoes to bring me back
Cuz my old house is what, is what I lack
Is what I lack
Cuz there was no place like home
Yeah, there was no place like home!
There was no place like home!
There was no place like home!
When it was there, when it was there...
I found my time, but I lost my youth
I played the game but forgot the clues
You can't evict me, my life is still there
Now that I've lost my home, I could go anywhere
There was no place like home
Yeah, there was no place like home
There was no place like home!
There was no place like home!
When it was there, when it was there...
When it was there.
So I tap my red shoes, one two one two
To bring me back (to bring me back)
To bring me back (to bring me back)
To bring me home, to bring me home
To bring me home.

Second Best
All the people all around us
Talking to and all about us
It’s the same
It will go away
Are you trying to be helpful?
Are you sleeping in the devils company?
Possibly
Don’t wake me up
I’m not sleeping
I’m not asking for any rest
And as long as I am breathing
I won’t settle for second best
We can teach ourselves the lessons
And we can change it any second of the day
We used to say
Are you trying to be helpful?
Are you sleeping in the devils company?
Possibly
Don’t wake me up I’m not sleeping
I’m not asking for any rest
And as long as I am breathing
I won’t settle for second best
Love the life that we don’t have
I wouldn’t change a thing
Not much but we don’t mind
I wouldn’t change a thing
Love the life that we don’t have
I wouldn’t change at all
Not much but we don’t mind
I wouldn’t change at all
Don’t wake me up
I’m not sleeping
I’m not asking for any rest
And as long as I am breathing
I won’t settle for second best
Don’t wake me up
I’m not sleeping
I’m not asking for any rest
And as long as I am breathing
I won’t settle for second best
I’m not asking for any rest

Don't Know Why
I wanna go home, I wanna get out.
Come out from under my shadow, but I'm not allowed.
I wanna forgive, I wanna forget.
Say goodbye to my comfort...
I don't know why and I don't know when, I need you now like I needed you then.
I wanna be young.
Don't wanna grow old.
I think to much of my future, break the mold.
I'm dreaming of sin but where to begin?
I'll be like this forever...
I don't know why and I don't know when, I need you now like I needed you then.
I don't know why and I don't know when, I need you now like I needed you then.
I wanna go out, don't wanna stay in.
I'll be like this forever to complete my sin.
I wanna be true, just like you.
Don't wanna be a liar...
I don't know why and I don't know when, I need you now like I needed you then.
I don't know why and I don't know when, I need you now like I needed you then.
I don't know why and I don't know when, I need you now like I needed you then.
So keep your dream, keep your pain, keep it under your conscience, stay in from the rain...
I wanna be cool, just like you.
I wanna be together...
I don't know why and I don't know when, I need you now like I needed you then.
I don't know why and I don't know when, I need you now like I needed you then.
I don't know why and I don't know when, I need you now like I needed you, now like I needed you, now like
I needed you then

HILLSONG UNITED Empires LYRICS
HILLSONG UNITED Empires LYRICS
album: "Empires" (2015)
Here Now (Madness)
Skies spin their dance
Within Your breath
Time runs its race
Within Your hand
And my mind runs wild
To comprehend
What no mind on earth
Could understand
Your ways are higher
Your thoughts are wilder
Love came like madness
Poured out in blood - wash romance
It makes no sense but this is grace
And I know You're with me in this place
Here now
All I know is I know that You are
Here now
Still my heart
Let Your voice be all I hear now
Spirit breathe
Like the wind come have Your way
Cause I know Your're in this place
Faith makes a fool
Of what makes sense
But grace found my heart
Where logic ends
When justice called
For all my debts
The Friend of sinners
Came instead
Here now
All I know is I know that You are
Here now
Still my heart
Let Your voice be all I hear now
Spirit breathe
Like the wind come have Your way
Cause I know that You are here now
Heart and soul
God I know that You are here now
Fix my eyes
On the things that I can't see now
And all I see
Is the glory of Your Name
********************************
Say The Word
Say the word and there is light
Say the word and dead bones rise
Every start and end hangs on Your voice
For Your word never returns void
Written in a billion skies
Speaking to this heart of mine
All that I am with all creation
Hanging on every word that You've spoken
And it will not be shaken
Clinging for life to all Your promise
Hanging on every word that You say
It will remain
And my soul will hang on every word You say
Word made flesh You wrote in grace
Promise kept through cross and grave
Over words of stone You spelled out love
And when You say it is done
It is done
[2x]
Written in a billion skies
Speaking to this heart of mine
All that I am with all creation
Hanging on every word that You've spoken
And it will not be shaken
Clinging for life to all Your promise
Hanging on every word that You say
It will remain
And my soul will hang on every word You say
Cause I know Your word will never ever fail
And my soul will hang on every word You say

Heart Like Heaven

No measure knows your worth

If you sought perfection
I'd die tryin' to reach it
But this broken heart is all you want

Heart like heaven
Singin' holy

Own this heart broke sound
Singin' holy is your name
Singin' holy is your name

Hear my soul cry out
Singin' holy is your name

Touch The Sky
What fortune lies beyond the stars
Those dazzling heights too vast to climb
I got so high to fall so far
But I found heaven as love swept low
My heart beating, my soul breathing
I found my life when I laid it down
Upward falling, spirit soaring
I touch the sky when my knees hit the ground
What treasure waits within Your scars
This gift of freedom gold can't buy
I bought the world and sold my heart
You traded heaven to have me again
My heart beating, my soul breathing
I found my life when I laid it down
Upward falling, spirit soaring
I touch the sky when my knees hit the ground
Find me here at Your feet again
Everything I am, reaching out, I surrender
Come sweep me up in Your love again
And my soul will dance
On the wings of forever
Find me here at Your feet again
Everything I am, reaching out, I surrender
Come sweep me up in Your love again
And my soul will dance
On the wings of forever
My heart beating, my soul breathing
I found my life when I laid it down
Upward falling, spirit soaring
I touch the sky when my knees hit the ground
My heart beating, my soul breathing
I found my life when I laid it down
Upward falling, spirit soaring
I touch the sky when my knees hit the ground
Find me here at Your feet again
Everything I am, reaching out I surrender
Come sweep me up in Your love again
And my soul will dance
On the wings of forever
Upward falling, spirit soaring
I touch the sky
When my knees hit the ground
********************************
Street Called Mercy
Tired of endless walking
Not knowing which way to go
I collapsed on a street called mercy
I was found in You
Throwing Your arms around me
You held me like I was Yours
Like You'd been there the whole time waiting
I was found in You
Wrapped up in scarlet kindness
You welcomed this sinner home
Now I breathe in the air of heaven
All I want is You
Keep me within Your shadow
Lord tether my heart to Yours
I want nothing without Your presence
All I want is You
You are all I want
You are all I need
Every breath I take
Is a breath to say
I am Yours now forever
********************************
When I Lost My Heart To You (Hallelujah)
Love
Laid its breath against my chest
My skin was thick
But You breathed down all my walls
Love
Like the fire steals the cold
The ice wore thin
As Your light tore through my door
You have my heart
You have my heart
You have my heart oh God
You have my heart
Oh hallelujah
Hallelujah
Oh hallelujah
I found Your love
When I lost my heart to You
Love
Trading crowns to wear my shame
The Prince's throne for the cross that bore my thorns
Oh love
Like crashing waves of endless grace
You won't relent
Until all I am is Yours
********************************
Even When It Hurts (Praise Song)
Take this fainted heart
Take these tainted hands
Wash me in Your love
Come like grace again
Even when my strength is lost
I'll praise You
Even when I have no song
I'll praise You
Even when it's hard to find the words
Louder then I'll sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
Take this mountain weight
Take these ocean tears
Hold me through the trial
Come like hope again
Even when the fight seems lost
I'll praise You
Even when it hurts like hell
I'll praise You
Even when it makes no sense to sing
Louder then I'll sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
And my heart burns only for You
You are all You are all I want
And my soul waits only for You
And I will sing till the morning has come
Lord my heart burns only for You
You are all You are all I want
And my soul waits only for You
And I will sing till the miracle comes
I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
Even when the morning comes
I'll praise You
Even when the fight is won
I'll praise You
Even when my time on earth is done
Louder then I'll sing your praise
I will only sing Your praise

Prince Of Peace
My heart a storm, clouds raging deep within
The Prince of peace came bursting through the wind
The violent sky held its breath
And in Your light I found rest
Tearing through the night
Riding on the storm
Staring down the fight
My eyes found Yours
Shining like the sun
Striding through my fear
The Prince of peace
Met me there
You heard my prayer
Hope like the sun, light piercing through the dark
The Prince of peace came and broke into my heart
The violent cross, the empty grave
And in Your light I found grace
Tearing through the night
Riding on the storm
Staring down the fight
My eyes found Yours
Shining like the sun
Striding through my fear
The Prince of peace
Met me there
You're always there
And You hear my prayer
Your love surrounds me
When my thoughts wage war
When night screams terror
There Your voice will roar
Come death or shadow
God I know Your light will meet me there
When fear comes knocking
There You'll be my guard
When day breeds trouble
There You'll hold my heart
Come storm or battle
God I know Your peace will meet me there
(Again and again)
Oh, be still my heart
I know that You are God
Oh fear no evil
For I know You are here
And my soul will know Your love surrounds me
When my thoughts wage war
When night screams terror
There Your voice will roar
Come death or shadow
God I know Your light will meet me there
And my soul will know
When fear comes knocking
There You'll be my guard
When day breeds trouble
There You'll hold my heart
Come storm or battle
God I know Your peace will meet me there
Oh, be still my heart
And my soul will ever know that You are God
And You heard my prayer

Empires
We are worlds, we are bodies
Empires of dirt and grace
Silhouettes and reflections
Caught in His holy flame
Beneath our skin
A new creation
The night is done
Our chains are broken
The time has come
The wait is over
The King is here
And His Name is Jesus
This is love
Bending skies to heal the broken
This is love
Bleeding life into the grave
Hear the sound
As our hearts cry out forever
Singing hallelujah
Breathing in a brand new world
We are shadows and portraits
Empires of light and clay
Images of our Maker
Sinners called out as saints
Beneath our skin
A new creation
The night is done
Our chains are broken
The time has come
The wait is over
The King is here
And His Name is Jesus
This is love
Bending skies to heal the broken
This is love
Bleeding life into the grave
Hear the sound
As our hearts cry out forever
Singing hallelujah
Breathing in a brand new world
No eye has seen
No ear has heard
No mind conceive
What heaven holds
But here and now
Let earth be found
With all our crowns
Upon Your Name
No eye has seen
No ear has heard
No mind conceive
What heaven holds
But here and now
Let earth be found
With all our crowns
Upon Your Name
********************************
Rule
Be the crown in the light and sound
Be the fire burning inside out
Be the love casting out all fear
Let your name rule the atmosphere
Love like the skies are wide
Crashing down to bring the world to life
Hope came dancing on an empty grave
Death has lost its rule to the King of grace
Be the crown in the light and sound
Be the fire burning inside out
Be the love casting out all fear
Let your name rule the atmosphere
Oh oh oh
And we owe it all to Jesus
Sin and all its shame deleted
Death and all its chains defeated
And the light we see is Jesus
And the air we breathe is freedom
And the sound it knows no fear
Your love rules the atmosphere
Oh oh oh
Be the crown in the light and sound
Be the fire burning inside out
Be the love casting out all fear
Let your name rule the atmosphere
********************************
Captain
Through waters uncharted my soul will embark
I'll follow Your voice straight into the dark
And if from the course You intend
I depart
Speak to the sails of my wandering heart
Like the wind
You'll guide
Clear the skies before me
And I'll glide this open sea
Like the stars
Your Word
Will align my voyage
And remind me where I've been
And where I am going
Lost in the shallows amidst fear and fog
Your truth is the compass that points me back north
Jesus
My Captain
My soul's trusted Lord
All my allegiance is rightfully Yours
Like the wind
You'll guide
Clear the skies before me
And I'll glide this open sea
Like the stars
Your Word
Will align my voyage
And remind me where I've been
And where I am going
Like the wind
You'll guide
Clear the skies before me
And I'll glide this open sea
Like the stars
Your Word
Will align my voyage
And remind me where I've been
And where I am going
Jesus
My Captain
My soul's trusted Lord
All my allegiance is rightfully Yours

Closer Than You Know
I tempered the storm
Though your faith was small
I prayed while you slept
And the night waged war
We stood in the fire
And we walked on sea
And we drank of the wine
That was made of Me
Don't turn your eyes from Me
For My love won't be undone
Don't hide your face from Me
For My light has surely come
Surely come surely come
I carried that cross
And I felt your pain
I took up your crown
And I wore your shame
And death was a fire
And its teeth were grim
But I left it behind
Along with all your sin
Don't turn away from Me
For My love won't be undone
Don't hide your face from Me
For My light has surely come
Surely Come surely come
Lift up your eyes and see
Heaven is closer than you know
Lift up your voice and sing
Know that My love won't let you go
And I won't forsake you
Lift up your eyes and see
Heaven is closer than you know
Know I'll never leave you
So lift up your voice and sing
Know that My love won't let you go
And My light has surely come
Surely come surely come
And I'm closer than you know
And I'm closer than you know
Lord I hear You I know You're there
Closer now than my skin and bones could dare
Breathing deep within me
You are always with me
I can see You where eyes can't stare
Brighter now than the sun could ever dare
Breathing all around me
God I know You're with me here
Lord I hear You I know You're there
Closer now than my skin and bones could dare
Breathing deep within me
You are always with me
I can see You where eyes can't stare
Brighter now than the sun could ever dare
Breathing all around me
God I know that You are here
For I'm Yours and You are mine
And my soul knows well
You are here
You are here
And my soul will praise You
And my soul will praise Your Name
Singing Holy is Your Name

Sunburst
You draw our hearts from the shadows
Towards Your horizon
Leaving the shade of the half light
To follow the Son
The city stirs in the twilight
In search of the morning
Street s finding life in the Sunburst
Of Your bright shining love
For the Light has come
And the night cannot understand it
As the world keeps spinning
This hope within us is rising
And like the rising sun
Wake up Your light in us
And we will shine like grace
As we call on Your Name
And when the day is done
This sound will carry on
Ti l the night folds over
In awe of our Saviour
Like mountains mirror the sunrise
Reflecting Your glory
Might we exhibit Your hope bright
Salvation in us

Upward falling, spirit soaring
I touch the sky when my knees hit the ground
Find me here at Your feet again
Everything I am, reaching out I surrender
Come sweep me up in Your love again
And my soul will dance
On the wings of forever
Upward falling, spirit soaring
I touch the sky
When my knees hit the ground

Street Called Mercy
Tired of endless walking
Not knowing which way to go
I collapsed on a street called mercy
I was found in You
Throwing Your arms around me
You held me like I was Yours
Like You'd been there the whole time waiting
I was found in You
Wrapped up in scarlet kindness
You welcomed this sinner home
Now I breathe in the air of heaven
All I want is You
Keep me within Your shadow
Lord tether my heart to Yours
I want nothing without Your presence
All I want is You
You are all I want
You are all I need
Every breath I take
Is a breath to say
I am Yours now forever
********************************
When I Lost My Heart To You (Hallelujah)
Love
Laid its breath against my chest
My skin was thick
But You breathed down all my walls
Love
Like the fire steals the cold
The ice wore thin
As Your light tore through my door
You have my heart
You have my heart
You have my heart oh God
You have my heart
Oh hallelujah
Hallelujah
Oh hallelujah
I found Your love
When I lost my heart to You
Love
Trading crowns to wear my shame
The Prince's throne for the cross that bore my thorns
Oh love
Like crashing waves of endless grace
You won't relent
Until all I am is Yours
********************************
Even When It Hurts (Praise Song)
Take this fainted heart
Take these tainted hands
Wash me in Your love
Come like grace again
Even when my strength is lost
I'll praise You
Even when I have no song
I'll praise You
Even when it's hard to find the words
Louder then I'll sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
Take this mountain weight
Take these ocean tears
Hold me through the trial
Come like hope again
Even when the fight seems lost
I'll praise You
Even when it hurts like hell
I'll praise You
Even when it makes no sense to sing
Louder then I'll sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
And my heart burns only for You
You are all You are all I want
And my soul waits only for You
And I will sing till the morning has come
Lord my heart burns only for You
You are all You are all I want
And my soul waits only for You
And I will sing till the miracle comes
I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
Even when the morning comes
I'll praise You
Even when the fight is won
I'll praise You
Even when my time on earth is done
Louder then I'll sing your praise
I will only sing Your praise

Prince Of Peace
My heart a storm, clouds raging deep within
The Prince of peace came bursting through the wind
The violent sky held its breath
And in Your light I found rest
Tearing through the night
Riding on the storm
Staring down the fight
My eyes found Yours
Shining like the sun
Striding through my fear
The Prince of peace
Met me there
You heard my prayer
Hope like the sun, light piercing through the dark
The Prince of peace came and broke into my heart
The violent cross, the empty grave
And in Your light I found grace
Tearing through the night
Riding on the storm
Staring down the fight
My eyes found Yours
Shining like the sun
Striding through my fear
The Prince of peace
Met me there
You're always there
And You hear my prayer
Your love surrounds me
When my thoughts wage war
When night screams terror
There Your voice will roar
Come death or shadow
God I know Your light will meet me there
When fear comes knocking
There You'll be my guard
When day breeds trouble
There You'll hold my heart
Come storm or battle
God I know Your peace will meet me there
(Again and again)
Oh, be still my heart
I know that You are God
Oh fear no evil
For I know You are here
And my soul will know Your love surrounds me
When my thoughts wage war
When night screams terror
There Your voice will roar
Come death or shadow
God I know Your light will meet me there
And my soul will know
When fear comes knocking
There You'll be my guard
When day breeds trouble
There You'll hold my heart
Come storm or battle
God I know Your peace will meet me there
Oh, be still my heart
And my soul will ever know that You are God
And You heard my prayer

Empires
We are worlds, we are bodies
Empires of dirt and grace
Silhouettes and reflections
Caught in His holy flame
Beneath our skin
A new creation
The night is done
Our chains are broken
The time has come
The wait is over
The King is here
And His Name is Jesus
This is love
Bending skies to heal the broken
This is love
Bleeding life into the grave
Hear the sound
As our hearts cry out forever
Singing hallelujah
Breathing in a brand new world
We are shadows and portraits
Empires of light and clay
Images of our Maker
Sinners called out as saints
Beneath our skin
A new creation
The night is done
Our chains are broken
The time has come
The wait is over
The King is here
And His Name is Jesus
This is love
Bending skies to heal the broken
This is love
Bleeding life into the grave
Hear the sound
As our hearts cry out forever
Singing hallelujah
Breathing in a brand new world
No eye has seen
No ear has heard
No mind conceive
What heaven holds
But here and now
Let earth be found
With all our crowns
Upon Your Name
No eye has seen
No ear has heard
No mind conceive
What heaven holds
But here and now
Let earth be found
With all our crowns
Upon Your Name

Be the crown in the light and sound
Be the fire burning inside out

Death has lost its rule to the King of grace
Be the crown in the light and sound

Let your name rule the atmosphere
Oh oh oh
And we owe it all to Jesus
Sin and all its shame deleted
Death and all its chains defeated
And the light we see is Jesus
And the air we breathe is freedom
And the sound it knows no fear
Your love rules the atmosphere
Oh oh oh
Be the crown in the light and sound
Be the fire burning inside out
Be the love casting out all fear

Captain
Through waters uncharted my soul will embark
I'll follow Your voice straight into the dark
And if from the course You intend
I depart
Speak to the sails of my wandering heart
Like the wind
You'll guide
Clear the skies before me
And I'll glide this open sea
Like the stars
Your Word
Will align my voyage
And remind me where I've been
And where I am going
Lost in the shallows amidst fear and fog
Your truth is the compass that points me back north
Jesus
My Captain
My soul's trusted Lord
All my allegiance is rightfully Yours
Like the wind
You'll guide
Clear the skies before me
And I'll glide this open sea

And where I am going

You'll guide
Clear the skies before me
And I'll glide this open sea

Will align my voyage
And remind me where I've been
And where I am going

Closer Than You Know
I tempered the storm
Though your faith was small
I prayed while you slept
And the night waged war
We stood in the fire
And we walked on sea
And we drank of the wine
That was made of Me
Don't turn your eyes from Me
For My love won't be undone
Don't hide your face from Me
For My light has surely come
Surely come surely come
I carried that cross
And I felt your pain
I took up your crown
And I wore your shame
And death was a fire
And its teeth were grim
But I left it behind
Along with all your sin
Don't turn away from Me
For My love won't be undone
Don't hide your face from Me
For My light has surely come
Surely Come surely come
Lift up your eyes and see
Heaven is closer than you know
Lift up your voice and sing
Know that My love won't let you go
And I won't forsake you
Lift up your eyes and see
Heaven is closer than you know
Know I'll never leave you
So lift up your voice and sing
Know that My love won't let you go
And My light has surely come
Surely come surely come
And I'm closer than you know
And I'm closer than you know
Lord I hear You I know You're there
Closer now than my skin and bones could dare
Breathing deep within me
You are always with me
I can see You where eyes can't stare
Brighter now than the sun could ever dare
Breathing all around me
God I know You're with me here
Lord I hear You I know You're there
Closer now than my skin and bones could dare
Breathing deep within me
You are always with me
I can see You where eyes can't stare
Brighter now than the sun could ever dare
Breathing all around me
God I know that You are here
For I'm Yours and You are mine
And my soul knows well
You are here
You are here
And my soul will praise You
And my soul will praise Your Name
Singing Holy is Your Name

Sunburst
You draw our hearts from the shadows
Towards Your horizon
Leaving the shade of the half light
To follow the Son
The city stirs in the twilight
In search of the morning
Street s finding life in the Sunburst
Of Your bright shining love
For the Light has come
And the night cannot understand it
As the world keeps spinning
This hope within us is rising
And like the rising sun
Wake up Your light in us
And we will shine like grace
As we call on Your Name
And when the day is done
This sound will carry on
Ti l the night folds over
In awe of our Saviour
Like mountains mirror the sunrise
Reflecting Your glory
Might we exhibit Your hope bright
Salvation in us

Castle
Sick of all these people talking, sick of all this noise
Tired of all these cameras flashing, sick of being poised
And now my neck is open wide, begging for a fist around it
Already choking on my pride, so there's no use crying about it
I'm headed straight for the castle
They wanna make me their queen
And there's an old man sitting on the throne that's saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean
I'm headed straight for the castle
They’ve got this kingdom locked up
And there's an old man sitting on the throne that's saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut
All of these people passing, saying that they’re feeling abused
If you wanna break these walls down, you’re gonna get bruised
And now my neck is open wide, begging for a fist around it
Already choking on my pride, so there's no use crying about it
I'm headed straight for the castle
They wanna make me their queen
And there's an old man sitting on the throne that's saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean
I'm headed straight for the castle
They’ve got this kingdom locked up
And there's an old man sitting on the throne that's saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut
There's no use crying about it
There's no use crying about it
There's no use crying about it
There's no use crying about it
I'm headed straight for the castle
They wanna make me their queen
And there's an old man sitting on the throne that's saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean
I'm headed straight for the castle
They’ve got this kingdom locked up
And there's an old man sitting on the throne that's saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut
Straight for the castle
They wanna make me their queen
And there's an old man sitting on the throne that's saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean
I'm headed straight for the castle
They’ve got this kingdom locked up
And there's an old man sitting on the throne that's saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut
Straight for the castle

Hold Me Down
My demons are begging me to open up my mouth
I need them mechanically make the words come out
They fight me, vigorous and angry, watch them pounce
Ignite me, licking up the flames they bring about
I sold my soul to a three-piece
And he told me I was holy
He's got me down on both knees
But it's the devil that's tryna
Hold me down, hold me down
Sneaking out the back door,
Make no sound
Knock me out, knock me out
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for
Hold me down, hold me down
Throw me in the deep end, watch me drown
Knock me out, knock me out
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for
Selfish, taking what I want and call it mine
I'm helpless, clinging to a little bit of spine
They rush me, telling me I'm running out of time
They shush me, walking me across a fragile line
I sold my soul to a three-piece
And he told me I was holy
He's got me down on both knees
But it's the devil that's tryna
Hold me down, hold me down
Sneaking out the back door,
Make no sound
Knock me out, knock me out
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for
Hold me down, hold me down
Throw me in the deep end, watch me drown
Knock me out, knock me out
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for
Hold me down now
Hold me down now
Hold me down
I sold my soul to a three-piece
And he told me I was holy
He's got me down on both knees
But it's the devil that's tryna
Hold me down, hold me down
Sneaking out the back door,
Make no sound
Knock me out, knock me out
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for
Hold me down, hold me down
Throw me in the deep end, watch me drown
Knock me out, knock me out
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for

New Americana
Cigarettes and tiny liquor bottles,
Just what you'd expect inside her new Balenciaga.
Vile romance, turned dreams into an empire.
Self-made success now she woes with Rockefellers.
Survival of the richest, the city's ours until the fall.
They're Monaco and Hamptons bound but we don't feel like outsiders at all.
We are the new Americana,
High on legal marijuana,
Raised on Biggie and Nirvana,
We are the new Americana.
Young James Dean, some say he looks just like his father,
But he could never love somebody's daughter.
Football team loved more than just the game
So he vowed to be his husband at the alter.
Survival of the richest, the city's ours until the fall.
They're Monaco and Hamptons bound but we don't feel like outsiders at all.
We are the new Americana,
High on legal marijuana,
Raised on Biggie and Nirvana,
We are the new Americana.
We know very well who we are, so we hold it down when summer starts.
What kind of dough have you been spending?
What kind of bubblegum have you been blowing lately?
We are the new Americana,
High on legal marijuana,
Raised on Biggie and Nirvana,
We are the new Americana.
We are the new Americana,
High on legal marijuana,
Raised on Biggie and Nirvana,
We are the new Americana.

Drive
My hands wrapped around your stick shift
Swerving on the 405, I can never keep my eyes off this
My neck, the feeling of your soft lips
Illuminated in the light, bouncing off the exit signs I missed
All we do is drive
All we do is think about the feelings that we hide
All we do is sit in silence waiting for a sign
Sick and full of pride
All we do is drive
And California never felt like home to me
And California never felt like home
And California never felt like home to me
Until I had you on the open road and now we're singing
Your laugh, echoes down the hallway
Carves into my hollow chest, spreads over the emptiness
It's bliss
It's so simple but we can't stay
Over analyze again, would it really kill you if we kissed
All we do is drive
All we do is think about the feelings that we hide
All we do is sit in silence waiting for a sign
Sick and full of pride
All we do is drive
And California never felt like home to me
And California never felt like home
And California never felt like home to me
Until I had you on the open road and I was singing

Hurricane
There's a place way down in Bed Stuy,
Where a boy lives behind bricks,
He's got an eye for girls of eighteen,
And he turns them out like tricks
I went down to a place in Bed Stuy
A little liquor on my lips
I let him climb inside my body
And held him captive in my kiss
And there's a storm you're starting now
And there's a storm you're starting now
And there's a storm you're starting
I'm a wanderess
I'm a one night stand
Don't belong to no city
Don't belong to no man
I'm the violence in the pouring rain
I'm a hurricane
Ha ah ah ha ah ah ah
I'm a hurricane
Ha ah ah ha ah ah ah
I'm a hurricane
I went down to a place in Brooklyn
Where you tripped on LSD
And I found myself reminded
To keep you far away from me
And there's a storm you're starting now
And there's a storm you're starting now
And there's a storm you're starting
I'm a wanderess
I'm a one night stand
Don't belong to no city
Don't belong to no man
I'm the violence in the pouring rain
I'm a hurricane
Ha ah ah ha ah ah ah
I'm a hurricane
Ha ah ah ha ah ah ah
I'm a hurricane
He says, "Oh, baby, beggin' you to save me.
Well lately, I like 'em crazy.
Oh, maybe, you could devastate me.
Little lady, come and fade me."
I'm a wanderess
I'm a one night stand
Don't belong to no city
Don't belong to no man
I'm the violence in the pouring rain
Come and fade me
Come and fade me
I'm a hurricane

Roman Holiday
Do you remember the taste of my lips that night
I stole a bit of my mother's perfume
Cause I remember when my father put his fist in the wall and separated the dining room
I remember the fear in your eyes
The very first time we snuck into the city
Late December with my heart in my chest and the clouds in my breath
Didn't know where I was running to
But I won't look back
Cause we'll be looking for sunlight
Or the headlights
Till our wide eyes burn blind
We'll be listening to the same tunes
That we're going through
To the bottom of the line
And we know that we're headstrong
And our heart's gone
And the timing's never right
But for now let's get away
On a Roman holiday
Do you remember the taste of my lips [?]
Cause I'll imagine the weight of your legs as you lie between my hips [?]
I imagine the tears in your eyes
The very first night I'll sleep without you
And when it happens I'll be miles away
And a few months late
Didn't know where I was running to
But I won't look back
Cause we'll be looking for sunlight
Or the headlights
Till our wide eyes burn blind
We'll be listening to the same tunes
That we're going through
To the bottom of the line
And we know that we're headstrong
And our heart's gone
And the timing's never right
So for now let's get away
On a Roman holiday
On a Roman holiday
Cause we'll be looking for sunlight
Or the headlights
Till our wide eyes burn blind
We'll be listening to the same tunes
That we're going through
To the bottom of the line
And we know that we're headstrong
And our heart's gone
And the timing's never right
But for now let's get away

Ghost
I'm searching for something that I can't reach.
I don't like them innocent
I don't want no face fresh
Want them wearing leather
Begging, let me be your taste test.
I like the sad eyes, bad guys
Mouth full of white lies
Kiss me in the corridor,
But quick to tell me goodbye.
You say that you're no good for me
Cause I'm always tugging at your sleeve
And I swear I hate you when you leave
But I like it anyway.
My ghost
Where'd you go?
I can't find you in the body sleeping next to me
My ghost
Where'd you go?
What happened to the soul, that you used, to be?
You're a Rolling Stone boy
Never sleep alone boy
Got a million numbers
And they're filling up your phone, boy.
I'm off the deep end, sleeping
All night through the weekend.
Saying that I love him but
I know I'm gonna leave him.
You say that you're no good for me
Cause I'm always tugging at your sleeve
And I swear I hate you when you leave
But I like it anyway.
My ghost
Where'd you go?
I can't find you in the body sleeping next to me

Your little brother never tells you but he loves you so

Coming Down
I found God
I found him in a lover
When his hair falls in his face
And his hands so cold they shake
I found the Devil
I found him in a lover
And his lips like tangerine
In his color coded speak
Now we're lost somewhere in outer space
In a hotel room where demons play
They run around beneath our feet
We roll around beneath these sheets
I've got a lover
a love like religion
I'm such a fool for sacrifice
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
I've got a lover
and I'm unforgiving
I'm such a fool to pay this price
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
I found a martyr
He told me that he'd never
With his educated eyes
and his head between my thighs
I found a savior
I don't think he remembers
'Cause he's off to pay his crimes
and he's got no time for mine
Now we're lost somewhere in outer space
In a hotel room where demons play
They run around beneath our feet
We roll around beneath these sheets
I've got a lover
a love like religion
I'm such a fool for sacrifice
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
I've got a lover
and I'm unforgiving
I'm such a fool to pay this price
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
Every single night pray the sun will rise
Every single time make a compromise
Every single night pray the sun will rise, but
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
I've got a lover
a love like religion
I'm such a fool for sacrifice
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
I've got a lover
and I'm unforgiving
I'm such a fool to pay this price
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
Every single night pray the sun will rise
Every single time make a compromise
Every single night pray the sun will rise, but
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down

Haunting
I was as pure as a river
But now I think I'm possessed
You put a fever inside me
And I've been cold since you left
I've got a boyfriend now and he's made of gold
You moved past your own mistakes in a bed at home
I'm hoping you could save me now but you break and fold
You've got a fire inside but your heart's so cold
'Cause I've done some things that I can't speak
And I've tried to wash away but you just won't leave
So won't you take a breath and dive in deep
'Cause I came here so you'd come for me
I'm begging you to keep on haunting
I'm begging you to keep on haunting me
I'm begging you to keep on haunting
I'm begging you to keep on haunting me
We walk as tall as the skyline
And we have roots like the trees
But then your eyes start to wander
They weren't looking at me
You weren't looking for me
'Cause I've done some things that I can't speak
And I've tried to wash away but you just won't leave
So won't you take a breath and dive in deep
'Cause I came here so you'd come for me
I'm begging you to keep on haunting
I'm begging you to keep on haunting me
I'm begging you to keep on haunting
I'm begging you to keep on haunting me

Control
They send him away to find them a fortune
A chest filled with diamonds and gold
The husband's away,
The shadows and monsters
They always echoed and glowed
And I sat alone, in bed till the morning
And crying "they're coming for me"

I turned all the villains around

Young God
He says "Oh baby girl you know we're gonna be legends"
I'm a king and you're a queen and we will stumble through heaven
If there's a light at the end, it's just the sun in your eyes
I know you wanna go to heaven but you're human tonight
And I've been sitting at the bottom of a swimming pool for a while now
Drowning my thoughts out, the sounds
Do you feel like a young god
You know the tale of us as young gods
And we'll be fighting through the streets with the people underneath and they're running, running, running
Do you feel like a young god
You know the tale of us as young gods

He says "Oh baby girl you can cut all my edges"
I'm the king of everything and oh my tongue is a weapon
There's a light in the crack, to keep [?]
And if you wanna go to heaven you should fuck me now

Gasoline
Are you insane like me? Been in pain like me?
Bought a hundred dollar bottle of champagne like me?
Just to pour that motherfucker down the drain like me?
Would you use your water bill to dry the stain like me?
Are you high enough without the Mary Jane like me?
Do you tear yourself apart to entertain like me?
Do the people whisper ‘bout you on the train like me?
Saying that you shouldn't waste your pretty face like me?
And all the people say
"You can’t wake up, this is not a dream
You're part of a machine, you are not a human being
With your face all made up, living on a screen
Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline"
I think there’s a fault in my code
These voices won’t leave me alone
Well my heart is gold and my hands are cold
Are you deranged like me? Are you strange like me?
Lighting matches just to swallow up the flame like me?
Do you call yourself a fucking hurricane like me?
Pointing fingers cause you’ll never take the blame like me?

Because you're mine, I walk the line
I find it very, very easy to be true
I find myself alone when each day is through
Yes, I'll admit that I'm a fool for you
Because you're mine, I walk the line [x2]
You've got a way to keep me on your side
You give me cause for love that I can't hide

Castle
Sick of all these people talking, sick of all this noise
Tired of all these cameras flashing, sick of being poised
And now my neck is open wide, begging for a fist around it
Already choking on my pride, so there's no use crying about it
I'm headed straight for the castle
They wanna make me their queen
And there's an old man sitting on the throne that's saying that I probably shouldn't be so mean
I'm headed straight for the castle
They’ve got this kingdom locked up
And there's an old man sitting on the throne that's saying I should probably keep my pretty mouth shut
All of these people passing, saying that they’re feeling abused
If you wanna break these walls down, you’re gonna get bruised
And now my neck is open wide, begging for a fist around it
Already choking on my pride, so there's no use crying about it
I'm headed straight for the castle
They wanna make me their queen

Hold Me Down
My demons are begging me to open up my mouth
I need them mechanically make the words come out
They fight me, vigorous and angry, watch them pounce
Ignite me, licking up the flames they bring about
I sold my soul to a three-piece
And he told me I was holy
He's got me down on both knees
But it's the devil that's tryna
Hold me down, hold me down
Sneaking out the back door,
Make no sound
Knock me out, knock me out
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for
Hold me down, hold me down
Throw me in the deep end, watch me drown
Knock me out, knock me out
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for
Selfish, taking what I want and call it mine
I'm helpless, clinging to a little bit of spine
They rush me, telling me I'm running out of time
They shush me, walking me across a fragile line
I sold my soul to a three-piece
And he told me I was holy
He's got me down on both knees
But it's the devil that's tryna
Hold me down, hold me down
Sneaking out the back door,
Make no sound
Knock me out, knock me out
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for
Hold me down, hold me down
Throw me in the deep end, watch me drown
Knock me out, knock me out
Saying that I want more, this is what I live for
Hold me down now
Hold me down now
Hold me down
I sold my soul to a three-piece
And he told me I was holy

Drive
My hands wrapped around your stick shift
Swerving on the 405, I can never keep my eyes off this
My neck, the feeling of your soft lips
Illuminated in the light, bouncing off the exit signs I missed
All we do is drive
All we do is think about the feelings that we hide
All we do is sit in silence waiting for a sign
Sick and full of pride
All we do is drive
And California never felt like home to me
And California never felt like home
And California never felt like home to me
Until I had you on the open road and now we're singing
Your laugh, echoes down the hallway
Carves into my hollow chest, spreads over the emptiness
It's bliss
It's so simple but we can't stay
Over analyze again, would it really kill you if we kissed
All we do is drive
All we do is think about the feelings that we hide
All we do is sit in silence waiting for a sign
Sick and full of pride
All we do is drive
And California never felt like home to me
And California never felt like home
And California never felt like home to me
Until I had you on the open road and I was singing

Hurricane
There's a place way down in Bed Stuy,
Where a boy lives behind bricks,
He's got an eye for girls of eighteen,
And he turns them out like tricks
I went down to a place in Bed Stuy
A little liquor on my lips
I let him climb inside my body
And held him captive in my kiss
And there's a storm you're starting now
And there's a storm you're starting now
And there's a storm you're starting
I'm a wanderess
I'm a one night stand
Don't belong to no city
Don't belong to no man
I'm the violence in the pouring rain
I'm a hurricane
Ha ah ah ha ah ah ah
I'm a hurricane
Ha ah ah ha ah ah ah
I'm a hurricane
I went down to a place in Brooklyn
Where you tripped on LSD
And I found myself reminded
To keep you far away from me
And there's a storm you're starting now
And there's a storm you're starting now
And there's a storm you're starting
I'm a wanderess
I'm a one night stand
Don't belong to no city
Don't belong to no man
I'm the violence in the pouring rain
I'm a hurricane
Ha ah ah ha ah ah ah
I'm a hurricane
Ha ah ah ha ah ah ah
I'm a hurricane
He says, "Oh, baby, beggin' you to save me.
Well lately, I like 'em crazy.
Oh, maybe, you could devastate me.
Little lady, come and fade me."
I'm a wanderess

Don't belong to no city

Roman Holiday
Do you remember the taste of my lips that night
I stole a bit of my mother's perfume
Cause I remember when my father put his fist in the wall and separated the dining room
I remember the fear in your eyes
The very first time we snuck into the city
Late December with my heart in my chest and the clouds in my breath
Didn't know where I was running to
But I won't look back
Cause we'll be looking for sunlight
Or the headlights
Till our wide eyes burn blind
We'll be listening to the same tunes
That we're going through
To the bottom of the line
And we know that we're headstrong
And our heart's gone
And the timing's never right
But for now let's get away
On a Roman holiday
Do you remember the taste of my lips [?]
Cause I'll imagine the weight of your legs as you lie between my hips [?]
I imagine the tears in your eyes
The very first night I'll sleep without you
And when it happens I'll be miles away
And a few months late
Didn't know where I was running to
But I won't look back
Cause we'll be looking for sunlight
Or the headlights
Till our wide eyes burn blind
We'll be listening to the same tunes
That we're going through
To the bottom of the line
And we know that we're headstrong
And our heart's gone
And the timing's never right
So for now let's get away
On a Roman holiday
On a Roman holiday
Cause we'll be looking for sunlight
Or the headlights
Till our wide eyes burn blind
We'll be listening to the same tunes
That we're going through
To the bottom of the line
And we know that we're headstrong
And our heart's gone

I'm searching for something that I can't reach.
I don't like them innocent
I don't want no face fresh
Want them wearing leather
Begging, let me be your taste test.
I like the sad eyes, bad guys
Mouth full of white lies
Kiss me in the corridor,
But quick to tell me goodbye.
You say that you're no good for me
Cause I'm always tugging at your sleeve
And I swear I hate you when you leave
But I like it anyway.
My ghost
Where'd you go?
I can't find you in the body sleeping next to me
My ghost
Where'd you go?
What happened to the soul, that you used, to be?
You're a Rolling Stone boy
Never sleep alone boy
Got a million numbers
And they're filling up your phone, boy.
I'm off the deep end, sleeping
All night through the weekend.
Saying that I love him but
I know I'm gonna leave him.
You say that you're no good for me
Cause I'm always tugging at your sleeve
And I swear I hate you when you leave
But I like it anyway.

Coming Down
I found God
I found him in a lover
When his hair falls in his face
And his hands so cold they shake
I found the Devil
I found him in a lover
And his lips like tangerine
In his color coded speak
Now we're lost somewhere in outer space
In a hotel room where demons play
They run around beneath our feet
We roll around beneath these sheets
I've got a lover
a love like religion
I'm such a fool for sacrifice
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
I've got a lover
and I'm unforgiving
I'm such a fool to pay this price
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
I found a martyr
He told me that he'd never
With his educated eyes
and his head between my thighs
I found a savior
I don't think he remembers
'Cause he's off to pay his crimes
and he's got no time for mine
Now we're lost somewhere in outer space
In a hotel room where demons play
They run around beneath our feet
We roll around beneath these sheets
I've got a lover
a love like religion
I'm such a fool for sacrifice
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down
I've got a lover

I'm such a fool to pay this price
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down

Every single time make a compromise
Every single night pray the sun will rise, but
It's coming down, down, I'm coming down

You moved past your own mistakes in a bed at home
I'm hoping you could save me now but you break and fold
You've got a fire inside but your heart's so cold
'Cause I've done some things that I can't speak
And I've tried to wash away but you just won't leave
So won't you take a breath and dive in deep
'Cause I came here so you'd come for me
I'm begging you to keep on haunting
I'm begging you to keep on haunting me
I'm begging you to keep on haunting
I'm begging you to keep on haunting me
We walk as tall as the skyline
And we have roots like the trees
But then your eyes start to wander
They weren't looking at me
You weren't looking for me
'Cause I've done some things that I can't speak
And I've tried to wash away but you just won't leave
So won't you take a breath and dive in deep
