Make up your mind
I don't have time for this shit
You're in deep
And I'm mad as a hatter
Get off my back
I have nothing to give
You're a joke
And your words never mattered
The sinner
By the river
Dancing all night long
Beginners
No more winners
We hear the same old song
Make a wish
Fly away
Pretty witch
You're asleep
While our world is in tatters
Buy a gun
Take me out like the bitch
That you are
There's the door
And it's shattered
The sinner
By the river
Dancing all night long
Beginners
No more winners
We hear the same old song
The sinner
By the river
Dancing all night long
Beginners
No more winners
We hear the same old song
The sinner
By the river
Dancing all night long
Beginners
No more winners
We hear the same old song

I think I've caught your disease
'Cuz I'm sick
With a virus
I'm feelin' weak at the knees
And I can't
Seem to fight it
The fever
The heat
I've succumbed
To bad habits
Ill and cold on the street
But it's warm
In the attic
We have a room for tears
And our malice
The secrets we've hid for years
Hearing static
We both know the end is near
But we'll manage
From panic to losing fear
Hearing static
I know you do what you please
That's okay
I'm a writer
I make up lies
I deceive
And I thrive
In a riot
The reaper
The streets
I will live on this island
Let's cover up in the sheets
Where it's warm
In the attic
We have a room for tears
And our malice
The secrets we've hid for years
Hearing static
We both know the end is near
But we'll manage
From panic to losing fear
Hearing static
We have a room for tears
And our malice
The secrets we've hid for years
Hearing static
We both know the end is near
But we'll manage
From panic to losing fear
Hearing static

The Priest
02:00
|

I became a devil
I rode in alone
I brought a world of trouble
To all those I've known
I could have run for office
And built my empire
With the sweat of angels
Setting churches on fire
The priest speaks of love
And our salvation
I don't want God
Or his son
I need a new vocation
I became a rebel
I fought
And I lost
I made their lives unstable
No matter the cost
I could have been a teacher
But kids are the same
They'll set the world on fire
No matter what we say
The priest speaks of love
And our salvation
I don't want God
Or his son
I need a new vocation
The priest speaks of love
And our salvation
I don't want God
Or his son
I need a new vocation
The priest speaks of love
And our salvation
I don't want God
Or his son
I need a new vocation

Highways and postcards
Cheap red wine
You wanna dance forever
And I don't mind
Funny how we came here
A room with holes
There's shaving cream on the mirror
Your arms are cold
We'll be back in the city
Before dawn
I know this trip has been shitty
It's all wrong
We'll be back in the city
Before long
The neon lights will look pretty
So be strong
Dark days in Cali
Long hard nights
Hooker drunk in the alley
The moon is bright
We hear a shot and then silence
But it's all right
We aren't afraid of violence
But we miss the lights
We'll be back in the city
Before dawn
I know this trip has been shitty
It's all wrong
We'll be back in the city
Before long
The neon lights will look pretty
So be strong
We'll be back in the city
Before dawn
I know this trip has been shitty
It's all wrong
We'll be back in the city
Before long
The neon lights will look pretty
So be strong

Brand New
01:52

I made a promise
I could not keep
I made a profit
But I can't sleep
I confide in you
For once I tell the truth
It's all brand new
And yet here we are
I confide in you
For once I tell the truth
We may be through
But we've come this far
I dream
I follow
A girl
To the sea
And there
We're swallowed
By sand on the beach
I confide in you
For once I tell the truth
It's all brand new
And yet here we are
I confide in you
For once I tell the truth
We may be through
But we've come this far
I confide in you
For once I tell the truth
I will be with you
Until we reach the stars

We Were Free
02:26
|

What have I done
I can't believe my eyes
The night has come
And there ain't a soul in sight
If I should run
Will my past
Catch up with me
I'm not afraid
But I'm sorry we can't be
Together
Like we once were
You and me
Forever
Remember
When we were free
Together
Like we once were
You and me
Forever
Remember
When we were free
What have you done
I can't forgive you now
The sun shall rise
When we're ready for the light
Wishing we could run
But our legs are paralyzed
The night is young
And stars are out tonight
Together
Like we once were
You and me
Forever
Remember
When we were free
Together
Like we once were
You and me
Forever
Remember
When we were free
Together
Like we once were
You and me
Forever
Remember
When we were free

Dead to the world
I hide in my shell
And wait for the tide
To pull me in
Love is an echo
I listen
It's hollow
There's more than just sorrow
I'm a child again
I won't let go of this dream
I'll hold on
As long as I can
I won't let go of this dream
I'll hold on
As long as I can
Be my girl
And I'll be your man
The lonely go crazy
I hope you don't hate me
I want to be yours
I love you so
Your voice on a record
I'd listen forever
We'll be together
And I'll stay close
I won't let go of this dream
I'll hold on
As long as I can
I won't let go of this dream
I'll hold on
As long as I can
I won't let go of this dream
I'll hold on
As long as I can
Be my girl
And I'll be your man
I'll be here if you need a friend

Confession
02:12
|
|||
Time is of the essence
The court is now is session
God will hear your confession
All your lies
Transgressions
You start by giving clues
And then you sing the blues
He wants to hear the truth
In the end you still refuse
We can talk whenever
'Cuz I can lie forever
I don't a need reason
I have stopped believing
In a God who judges me
Who refuses to let me be
A Lord who doesn't see
On earth we can't be free
Real life
The circus
He knows what hurts us
He'll teach me a lesson
God asks more questions
You start by giving clues
And then you sing the blues
He wants to hear the truth
In the end you still refuse
God keeps judging me
Refusing to let me be
Our Lord
Too blind to see
On earth we can't be free
You start with something new
He's looking straight at you
You want to tell the truth
In the end you still refuse

Black Bears

We're goin' out like a band of raiders
Keepin' hell nice and hot for traitors
Bashing skulls of trolls and haters
We never sold our souls to strangers
We rise above
It's heaven sent
We'll bring the pain
We live inside our caves
But we will come out in the rain
We're gonna fake our death
Believe it
Put us to the test
We'll beat it
Inside the fires of hell
You'll see it
The devil waits for you
The demon
We rise above
It's heaven sent
We'll bring the pain
We live inside our caves
But we will come out in the rain
We rise above
It's heaven sent
We'll bring the pain
We live inside our caves
But we will come out in the rain
We're beasts
We love
But have no friends
We are insane
Bears inside our caves
But we will come out in the rain

Incommunicado
02:02
|

Knee deep in the sea
The sky
And the trees
We drift with the tide
The birds that we see
Shells under our feet
The sun keeps us dry
I wanna hold you tonight
Make love on the beach
With the moon in your eyes
I wanna touch you tonight
We can be free
Everything is alright
We'll go for a walk
And have a nice talk
We'll dream without fear
See the fish
How they jump
Let's drink
And then run
The water is clear
I wanna hold you tonight
Make love on the beach
With the moon in your eyes
I wanna touch you tonight
We can be free
Everything is alright
I feel so relaxed
The wind at our backs
On the deck we see stars
Full moon out tonight
We missed it this time
But there's love in our heart
I wanna hold you tonight
Make love on the beach
With the moon in your eyes
I wanna touch you tonight
We can be free
Everything is alright
I wanna hold you tonight
Make love on the beach
With the moon in your eyes
I wanna touch you tonight
We can be free
Everything is alright
