i would love you
05:44

if you can't allow these things
if you can't allow this kind of love to go on
if you chase this kind of love inside
what would i do?
i would love you
if you put me in my place
if you put me in my place where i belong
if you turn around and criticize the status that i lack
what would i do?
i would love you
i know it's hard to be so
when the cynic in you is telling you to let go
but if you empathize with other lives
when no one else comes through
what would they do?
they would love you

the promise of chance
05:12
|
|||
the hippies all had dreams
but greed was growing hungry and it ate them all
and if i had to wager
this generation is on its own
the baby boomers failed
and the greatest generation
could only beat them back for a decade or so
ambition is an engine
their war machines are ready to go
you had the promise of chance to change things
you failed to see that promise through
so hand it down to the next ones
there's a madness in this world
there's a craziness and cruelty in your neighborhood
and if i had to gamble
maybe we are on our own
it may be that i'm wrong
it may be that you feel fine
as the seas change to the east
you are resolute
in the place that you call home
the truth with stare you straight in the face
and tell you
you had the promise of chance to change things
you failed to see that promise through
when i lose control
automate my soul
i won't mind
i won't mind at all
if the promise of chance is passed on
you are my waiting car
fear that makes me hard
you
you are my waiting car
there in the parking lot
you
and though the promise of chance is over
i'd take another chance with you
when i lose control
automate my soul
i won't mind
i won't mind at all
when corporate drones
data-mine my bones
i hope they hear this on their phones
and hand it down to the next ones

overcame the sun
05:34
|
|||
sleep comes easy when i'm by your window
and nothing takes me further from the world
past all the factories past all the city lights
deep inside the woods we go
i was hoping you would see it too
so i
overcame the law
overcame the sun
overcame them all
when over came the sun to solve the night
dreams come crazy when i least expect it
but nothing shakes me, wakes me from my life
past undeniable, now unavoidable
what on earth could we all do?
i was saving some of it for you
so i
overcame the law
overcame the sun
overcame them all
when over came the sun to solve the night
i will find a path to you
if i have to smash through walls
i will make my way to you
if i have to overcome them all
please let this be something
let this be real
please let me not wake up
let this go on
hold on Baby
stay with me here
hold on Baby
to your broken heart
you always said
you'd take the love you had
beyond the end
so i
overcame the law
overcame the sun
overcame them all
and overcame the sun to solve the night
i will find a path to you
if i have to smash through walls
i will make my way to you
if i have to overcome them all

it isn't love
05:19
|
|||
i've met enough people to know
get someone wrong and you might not think
that they're wanting
for that one thing
finding what your heart assumes
with lonely girls in empty rooms
would it kill you to spend the night alone
waiting for your life at home
it isn't love but it's something
and it'll have to do
until the one thing that i really need
comes hunting me
how i wish it was you
i've seen enough in my days
to know just how much hurt you find
in search of that one thing
you've been wanting
sublimation has its way
of burning off a lonely day
it may be you're wrong
for holding out so long
it isn't love but it's something
and it'll have to do
until the one thing that i really need
comes hunting me
how i wish it was you
there were times in my life
i had thoughts in my mind
i could never say to you

a spring fuck you
04:12
|

stayin inside
it's gone on for too long
it's been a thing since i could sing
it's been a long since i could song
spring has sprung
winter's gone
this time
i'm right
come out into the light
get loose and sing along
if the night's nights too late
all alone
but the stars did say
"i could save you too"
to me
you old thing
catching things on photo film
but when the silence rings
your solitude rings too
when silence rings
(your) solitude rings true
i could be there with you
this time
i'm right
come out into the light
get loose and sing along
if the night's nights too late
all alone
but the stars did say
"i could save you too"
to me
why can't you feel
what waits outside the walls you live in
why can't you hear me calling
love like a mom
loves all her babies
so don't be selfish now
this heart of stone i failed to move
i washed hands and heart of you
you stayed inside
but failed to ruin my mind
cos see, i won't feel like this

pound your town to hell
05:41
|
|||
the castle fell to cannons
in a war long before
you were ever born
at least that's what they say
you couldn't believe it
they brought their heavy words down like a hammer
and beat your heart to life
and you were never the same again
now
we drift through the forest
we wander the landscape
we thunder and lightning
we rumble and we scrape
in search of a story
like our grandfathers tell
so we've come from the valley
to pound your town to hell
cut down near the ruins
where they lay still today
you will never know
but that's not your concern
the spirit you hear it
you mount your suicide machine
with a kick you
bring the beast to life
this was never gonna end well
cos
we drift through the forest
we wander the landscape
we thunder and lightning
we rumble and we scrape
in search of a story
like our grandfathers tell
so we've come from the valley
to pound your town to hell
