Well, I gave him the world my eyes opened wide He left me at prom, cheated and lied The girl was mean and empty and bland But I still wear his rind on the finger of my hand These tales that I tell come from days not so swell When love wet the ground, not looking I fell My luck shot to shit but I’ve still got my wit So I quite the drinking, my heart’s opened a bit Tales that I tell Tales that I tell Tales that I tell Fare thee well Now silver spoon guy wears a blazer and tie Women in high heels too many to decide I threw my bottle straight at his head Man I wish I would have chose his best friend instead These tales that I tell come from days not so swell When love wet the ground, not looking I fell My luck shot to shit but I’ve still got my wit So I quite the drinking, my heart’s opened a bit Tales that I tell Tales that I tell Tales that I tell Fare thee well Mister pretty of the city never one to have wit Night came around we just couldn’t quit A wife, a girlfriend, neither was me So I packed my bags and moved from the sea These tales that I tell come from days not so swell When love wet the ground, not looking I fell My luck shot to shit but I’ve still got my wit So I quite the drinking, my heart’s opened a bit Tales that I tell Tales that I tell Tales that I tell Fare thee well

Some preach about judgment Some teach about hate Some talk of their rivals and ways to separate let it be free, let it be free, let it live free You can try to force a history that has so many sides like tryin’ to force the ocean to go against the tide let it be free, let it be free, let it live free Let it be free in my heart Let it be free in my mind time after time Let it live free We're spinning on an axis We are turning within space some will race the time til' there's nothing left to chase let it be free, let it be free, let it live free Some say the change is coming I say it's already here You can feel the pulse gettin’ louder year after year let it be free, let it be free, let it live free

Let's Go 02:50
Well I rose to meet the skyline but the sky fell to the Earth And the people oh they gathered through their pain and their hurt Then when day became the the nighttime, revenge was the word But it's a lie to feel the fight will regain our worth So let's go let's say goodbye let's leave let’s find our peace. Let's go Let's go Now ten years in to the timeline we've lost both lives and faith Turned and idol out of anger, traded oil for the grave And we'll fall with this violence but in peace we'll rise again So look for light within the sunshine but don't forget the shade So let's go let's say goodbye let's leave let’s live in peace. Let's go Let's go It's a journey it's a trip your face is blurred now come on home A single word upon my lips my soul is stirred you're not alone

Hey little sister, don’t be afraid Even though that’s what the newspapers seem to say, with desperation. Hey little sister, I know its tough Money ain’t being shared but god knows there’s enough, to arm a nation. We all come back again, to the same old ground, the one where we began Hey little sister, it’s the same old song, If we all think we’re right, well who the hell is wrong, so we fall apart. Hey little sister, don’t lose your smile, Even though it seems like love has gone out of style, I hear your beating heart. We all come back again, to the same old ground, the one where we began We fall apart, we fall apart... But I hear your heart. We all come back again, to the same old ground, the one where we began

Slow It Down 03:23
I gotta slow it down, slow it down Slow it down to get that far 'Cause when I move quick, oh man it won't stick And then I'll ask myself, what went wrong? I gotta sit back and somehow relax Or I'll be singing that same old song I gotta slow it down, slow it down Slow it down to get that far We want it all now, but some don't care how They'll push you to the ground, to rise on up And well they fall flat, and then we're right back No matter what they have it's not enough I gotta slow it down, slow it down Slow it down to get that far You know speed it ain't for me So let's take our time and do it right

You’ve been scarred, caught off guard It’s hard to face the days that changed our grace But wake your heart again I’ve been tried, my heart has died But now it sighs in lie’s demise Won't you wake your heart again She’s barred the door but can’t ignore Her core still soars, true love endures And wakes your heart again We can wake our hearts again I think its time you laid with me We can laugh and share the mystery It is time for love to be You can try to sway The course of fate But true love wakes to resonate And wake your heart again She steps in to a truth so new Construes the view, to see right through And wake my heart again With a world to seek, to you I reach, To flee with me across the sea, To wake your heart again We can wake our hearts again I think its time you stayed with me, We can laugh and share the mystery, It is time for love to be

I hate the sound of clackin’ heels They drive me wild with an urge to kill Most women are crazy as hell ‘Cause these cats are cats Purrin’ to scratch Lickin’ their paws with the mice that they catch Most women are crazy as hell Waitin’ for their bowl of cream Grinnin’ with their little schemes Most women are crazy as hell And if they end up all alone They’ll suck your meat right off the bone Suck your meat right off of the the bone ‘Cause I hate the sound of clackin’ heels They drive me wild with an urge to kill Most women are crazy as hell

Hands of destruction, hold me by the collar. I take a sip to slip away. The spell of illusion looks like how I want it, but when I reach there's nothing there The skies are calling, I want to touch the lightning And I am falling into the outer space Stir from submission, instinctive intermission. A pause to recollect myself Cheap entertainment, pass on that temptation, I'll toss it all into the wind. The skies are calling, I want to touch the lightning And I am falling into the outer space Look up at the stars, wonder who we are. But we know this place isn't what it seems We're reaching out, from the past. Walls of sand, never last Into the sky, Into the breeze. Without restraint I feel the peace The skies are calling, I want to touch the lightning And I am falling into the outer space

Stood with his back turned from death Heavy was his smokin’ pistol hummin’ with lead There wasn’t a thing to stand in his path Just the flames of his furious, fiery wrath He came into this world believin’ in something Discovered a man ‘aint guaranteed nothing But I swear I’ve heard him whistlin’ at night Just a sad man’s breath nobody in sight He rose in the mornin’ lickin’ his lips Devil in his eyes and gun at his hip He strode through the desert to a desolate place Sweat drippin’ down his criminal face He rested the barrel between his teeth Couldn’t pull the trigger for the final relief But I swear I’ve heard him whistlin’ at night Just a sad man’s breath nobody in sight His insides turned to black. Heart was broken and cracked No one to save him. No one to save him. That’s the fact He fell to his knees feelin’ half the man The coward crawled back through the sand He couldn’t take his so he had to take theirs His pride had died, his soul wasn’t there Bullets flew straight through the breeze The town painted red, children fell to their knees His insides turned to black.Heart was broken and cracked No one to save him. No one to save him. That’s the fact He called himself mayor a city his own On an empty street he died alone

Don't be unkind. Don't be cruel. And mean to who you love They're all cryin' in the streets from your fires Well the loot, yeah it's new, you broke that glass right through And the shit that you stole’s got you high Now I can't see the stars in the city tonight Well the fire's in my eyes and the feelin's just not right No I can't see the stars tonight Don't be unkind. Don't be cruel. And mean to who you love Dragged him out in the streets, broke his hands Well the view that he drew, it sent you through the roof But what lasts is the laugh you'll never have Now I can't see the stars in the city tonight Well the blood's in my eyes and the feelin's just not right No I can't see the stars tonight I looked out into space but the stars they never came As the day began to break the sun returned again Now I can't see the stars in the city tonight Now I can't see the stars in the city tonight Well the view was askewed but somehow it's all right 'Cause I might see the stars tonight
