Down Low
02:33
|

what I can see
have this on my own
creating a piece
do as you're shown
do not repeat
you stay down low
you want it all
you'll reach I know
can't make it stop
doors never close
master of possessions
erupt the world
the distance between
we'll never know
stay here to be
kept down low
can try to see
what's not yet been shown
left here alone
you're on your own
don't look back, you look scared
see the look on your face, as you're gasping for air
just let me see this
I would do what it takes if it helps at all
I want to do this
I might even catch you if you happen to fall
we could already do this
you came up with the same excuse as before
I don't want to regret this
the things that we do define who we are

We Are All One
01:21
|

I won't ever listen to you
I won't ever do what you say
I won't abide by your rules
even though you've left them with me
don't ever ask me to listen up
I know the law's all fucked up
what makes you think I'll listen to you
fuck this system, I'll always be against you
what's it like knowing not everyone is with you
how does it feel having everybody hate you
don't you have the slightest clue of what might be good to do
how much time do you need to realize
we can make it on our own
we're better off left alone
you have to open your eyes
you're the ones that are out of line
without leaders we can all be the man
without others being left behind
together we can all understand
that we are all one
together we stand
we are all one

For The Life Of Me
02:44
|
|||
For the life of me I won't give up on you
even if you don't want to keep that heart beat up
I won't subside, We can fight to make things right
There are few of us that are giving when there should be more of us that are trying
I won't back down on you I'd like to be by your side too
but to be by your side for the first time since that one drunk night
well it would be so nice just to hold you in my arms
desperation and the desire, her eyes, that look, and my world on fire
you looked at me then crept away
stand up and say it, stand up and say it
why even run away, come back another day
stand up and say it, but you know that you've got it your way

Single
02:37
|
|||
won't do what you say
can't make me give in
you know I would if I wanted to
I don't need you to beg me to stay
I'd rather see you walk away
then leaving me here to wait
I thought that I had learned from my mistakes
I guess the worst still can bring me down
I'd try to behave but I'm clueless as to what to do
it's time to move on, hey girl, how are you?
a couple of drinks and we'll watch the world
pretend for a moment that we could be together
it might seem right but I know I'm not sure
I could stay single here forever
you might not even like me once you get to know me
I just wanted to recognize you and maybe have you blow me
we're both on the love seat, no one else in the room
you're hung up on me and I'm hard in my pants for you
as I bring you in closer and our tongues are tied together
I'm not like other people, relationships aren't forever
I know this won't last long and I like to finish quick
and I know all that your looking for is a guy with a big dick

Worst Mistake
02:32
|
|||
what we've said, our violence
keeps taking place, this is our worst mistake
well all of these changes could take
place before we are too late
we're not so different, our skin's not the same
but look deep inside, relating to each other is how we know what's right
all of our differences won't end tonight
we can choose to settle them if we just take the time
starving childs across the seas
moms and dads can't help cure the disease
the only ones that can help is you and me
take a step forward and help others in need
you know your heart is saying that it's right
why leave another child starved tonight?
we are all human beings
with a will and a way to stay alive
if it was you in need
you would want to see others trying
to help you succeed
and do what it takes to stay alive
were so used to having
other people around to rely on
for our safety and belonging
as we're trapped in our own ways
well these kinds of ways
we have to change
We're all the same
let's treat each other that way
it doesn't matter if we are family
we are aware of these problems
there are innocent people dying
when we could just take some time to help them survive

Pretending To Listen
03:10
|
|||
I would have spent more time with you
if I hadn't known you weren't ready to settle
for what we have, I won't live this down
we could have tried or even pretended to listen
less said, a little easier, on me
before was a dream
let's take our time to make up
if it means anything to you
only if you're serious
It has never meant that much to me
to try and keep whatever we have together
we could have been taking off from here
your love games hold me back
now just shut the fuck up cause you know I'm not listening.
our beating hearts aren't at the same time
we could try to love again if we both mean it

Acceptance
03:04
|
|||
you're right in front of me
leaving again
I'm not surprised by your decisions
you keep slipping away
we can try to be equals
fragile as it may seem
you keep seeing what you don't agree with
as you keep running away
ask me if you think I care
well you know I don't give a fuck
that's why I'm getting my things out of here
this place has ran out of luck
our time left here is valuable
I want to live to be free
around n round were chasing dreams
livin' it up, killin' it, having fun where we be
you're falling behind me
leaving again
you seem surprised by your decisions
as you keep slipping away
you denied to be equals
you're broken it seems
you keep seeing what you don't agree with
but who can't complain about this mess
well I guess we'll have to try it your way
since you can't settle for what we have
would it be worth the lesson learned for today
make it worth it, we're trying so hard
it's not an easy battle and that I believe (wa-oh)
but if we pour out our hearts and help each other
achieve anything that we want through human strength
it is possible we could succeed
we know being here is hard and accepting the fact that everything
and all the good things around us will die

On And On
02:12
|
|||
my ticket is paid for and I'm never looking back
whatever I'm hear for, I'm sure I'll figure it out
I've done alright so far
whatever you say you want to do
whoever you think you want to be close with
let yourself do the thinking and then make your move
we are the sun, we are the air, we are the people that cared
that's why we're here that's why we'll stay until we're finished our business
we'll recreate, we'll relocate
we are the definition of "what is scared"
we are the scarred, we are the wounded
we are the witnesses to all of this
we are fine, we choose to be
we'll except life and deal with fate
I'm already driving and I don't know how to steer
with no solutions to anyway out of here
I still like the odds
once you know how to finish and the end results
a game's no fun once you've planned it all
I'd rather not know anything at all. At all
staying strong, on and on

The Life That We Hate
02:47
|
|||
People alerted by the sounds
they've heard the warning that has been put out
one by one they'll catch us while we're lying around
they'll make sure they'll kick you while you're down
it's never really a lesson learned
it won't matter if you say it hurts
you'll lose control of everything you have
fully armed to protect themselves
while we walk around fully aroused
I don't get the gist to all of this
We'll accept your torture as you rise above
we can all hurt but we all need to love
a white man in blue wants to take you out
who gets to say what's wrong or right
we're stuck living inside of this experiment
I would break the system if I had a way
if you had a choice would you separate?
or do we continue this life that we hate?

Who To Believe
03:13
|
|||
I've seen the sun on its rise
wondering if I'll be willing to find
where my energy will be refined
once I pass and it all escapes from my mind
Look I wanted to share my news with you
either way even if you don't want to listen to me
because all it takes is a few minutes
to try and explain how I'm not open to all your bullshit
further away, in open space
I'd rather be, while you sit and pray
as we waste away slowly degrading
you want your heaven, but that's over rated
when everything that you ever wanted to happen
crumbles right before your eyes
and what you've seen that's been destroyed
keeps holding you down
would you be willing to start again
knowing you're not at the end
or is this where we decide
that what we do now isn't at all for us
it seems to me that we can be
gullible to one another
when it comes down to what is real
and who are we willing to believe
what ever happened to your eyes
we've been destroyed and it's holding us down
could we start again, not at the end
or is this where we decide that what we do now isn't at all for us
are we working together, are we falling apart?
can you see straight is your vision clear?
where has your sense of understanding gone?
to the dogs, as you stare with that ungrateful sneer
you waste away, you're hanging on
you've come so close to making it to the end
but is that really where you're wanting to be
to restart, to move on, we'll have to see it depends

Enough Of This
02:53
|
|||
when you talk about
what is fair
when you talk about
when it's only you that cares
cut me off
count me out
you can try to tell me what you believe
through you, I see
you can try to tell me what you believe
I knew you were lying all along
I don't need your love
I won't let you in
there's not enough room in my heart
to take advantage of what I could offer you
|

Ocean Sand
02:27
|
|||
we'll wash away through a tide
we'll leave the day and the night
we'll waste away all our time
keep breaking these chains
never looked back because of the doubt
the things we've learned we can't live without
as we decide to fight through these waves
we all know were just along for the ride
never stopped us from moving on
whatever we're left with we'll keep on going
from the ocean waves to the sand on the shore
this is our ground, this is our home
I don't care about your heaven
I don't want in anyway
to separate my own decisions
and take on your own opinions
