Ain't No Slowing Down
02:49
|
|||
Some people claim I'm over the hill
And chasing a dream
My hairs on fire and I'm drinking gasoline
I take too many pills
To try and cure my ills
But there ain't no slowing down
Until they put me in the ground
There ain't no slowing down
You know I'm playing for keeps
And I stake my claim to fame
I might not finish first
But you know I'm in the race
Pedal to the metal
You know I might be insane
But there ain't no slowing down
Until they put me in the ground
There ain't no slowing down
There ain't no slowing down
Until the put me in the ground

Tomorrow's Yesterday
02:54
|
|||
I've lost count of all the days that I have wasted
Now that hourglass won't tell me how much sand is left
All I got now are second chances
Winding down with every solemn sunset
Cause today is tomorrow's yesterday
Don't let no more time waste away
Said today is tomorrow's yesterday
Don't let no more time waste away
Right now I aim to mend all my broken fences
Break my dark heart and say what I need to say
Trying to make right all of my wrongs
Measuring every single minute of the day
Cause today is tomorrow's yesterday
Don't let no more time waste away
Said today is tomorrow's yesterday
Don't let no more time waste away
Now today is tomorrow's yesterday
Don't let no more time waste away
Said today is tomorrow's yesterday
Don't let no more time waste away

Taken by the Sea
02:53
|
|||
There was never anything quite as hard
As having to watch you fall apart
Standing right beside you
Seeing you start to fade away
Not knowing what I should do
Or even what to say
But you know your friends don't run
Even when the hard times come
You were taken by the sea
Taken by the sea
Lured away by the song of a banshee
There hasn't been a day
Where you didn't cross my mind
But I still can't figure out
How to say goodbye
Because you know your friends don't run
Even when the hard times come
You were taken by the sea
Taken by the sea
Lured away by the song of a banshee
You were taken by the sea
Taken by the sea
Lured away by the song of the banshee

Birds and Bees
02:42
|
|||
You got me thinking like nothing has before
About what makes the world go round and what could be in store
There's something in the way you move makes me think of tongue in groove
Natures seems to understand how to break a honest man
Now mother nature she's having her way with me
And she has me thinking about those birds and bees
And now I'm thinking about those birds and bees
Now there are people who say that it is wrong
I don't know if their right but man that juju's strong
Who am I to question it, don't want to be a hypocrite
Nature is a funny thing and there's no way to push a string
And mother nature she's having her way with me
And she has me thinking about those birds and bees
And now I'm thinking about those birds and bees
And now mother nature is having her way with me
And she has me thinking about those birds and bees
And now I'm thinking about those birds and bees

Devilish Ways
03:33
|
|||
The first thing I saw was your eyes
Dancing like fireflies in the night
Wearing that dress to impress
Moving just like wildfire
I was afraid I couldn't disobey
Knowing that I couldn't get away from your
Devilish Ways
You put those pins
Deep down in my skin
Just like its wicked voodoo
You use that sultry grin
The original sin
Just like its deja vu
And your Devilish Ways
Tell me how do you do what you do to me
Is it magic
Deep down in my bones I cant escape from you
It feels so damn tragic
Just like you put a spell on me
Now I cant set myself free from you
and your Devilish Ways
You put those pins
Deep down in my skin
Just like its wicked voodoo
You use that sultry grin
The original sin
Just like its deja vu
And your Devilish Ways

All the Hell
02:55
|
|||
You make me feel so damn blue
With all the hell you put me through
Dealing with you feels like a crime
Like I'm locked up and doing time
Damn there has to be a better way
Not gonna let you rain on my parade
There ain't enough diamonds and gold
To make me wanna trade in my soul
You make me feel so damn blue
With all the hell you put me through
The time has come to walk away
Get caught in the winds of change
There ain't enough diamonds and gold
To make me wanna trade in my soul
You make me feel so damn blue
With all the hell you put me through
You make me feel so damn blue
With all the hell you put me through

Not Really My Style
03:38
|
|||
I've always been good at being hard to get
Playing my cards close to my chest
There's never ever been a lover quite like you
Caught me unaware when you came out the blue
Now I can't get you off my mind
Making me feel like we're two of kind
Now I lose myself in your smile
Even though it's not really my style
There's something deep down in your eyes
Reminds me of such a beautiful sunrise
I've never felt so in love
There is nothing better than your touch
And you know that I just want you near
And when we're together there is nothing to fear
And I lose myself in your smile
Even though it's not really my style
You got me acting just like a fool
Willing to break all of my rules
Because I lose myself in your smile
Even though it's not really my style

Unwind
03:07
|
|||
Maybe its time to take a step back
Before this train runs out of track
Don't you think this is getting out of hand
Almost like were trapped in quicksand
Don't you think its time to unwind
Grab a peace pipe and lose our minds
Maybe its time for us to unwind
Share a smoke and have a good time
Everyone seems filled with anger
Living like that sure leads to danger
No one says we have to all agree
Why can't we let each other live free
Man that sounds good to me
Don't you think its time to unwind
Grab a peace pipe and lose our minds
Maybe its time for us to unwind
Share a smoke and have a good time
Can't we just unwind
Grab a peace pipe and lose our minds
Maybe its time for us to unwind
Share a smoke and have a good time
We need to unwind

The Mask
03:38
|
|||
We've seen hard times from the start
Because of the games we both love to play
But that is a danger when you risk your heart
That is all could just slip away
The truth is there were times we were near the end
Despite the vows we both made
But somehow we always made amends
Even inside the masquerade
So slip off your mask
You don't need to hide
Your face from me
So slip off your mask
You don't need to hide
Your face from me
So slip of the mask
Out in the world we have to hide our faces
There are things we can't let other people see
They don't care about knowing the real you
But you don't have to hide from me
So slip off your mask
You don't need to hide
Your face from me
So slip off your mask
You don't need to hide
Your face from me
So slip of the mask
So slip of the mask
So slip off your mask
You don't need to hide
Your face from me
So slip off your mask
You don't need to hide
Your face from me
Go ahead and slip of your mask

Western Sky
03:55
|
|||
Storm clouds are rolling
In the western sky
The only hope for peace
Is in the tornado’s eye
It feels like we are trapped
In this little town
And the rain it just keeps on
Coming down
Storm clouds are rolling
In the western sky
Lightning flashes
And the thunder replies
Words are never just words
When they're shouted in anger
And callous hearts will only lead you
Straight into danger
Storm clouds are rolling
In the western sky
Just listen to the wind
To hear the angels cry
With enough bad luck
We can break out of here
And come face to face
With all of our fears
Storm clouds are rolling
In the western sky

Ship In A Bottle
03:39
|
|||
Somewhere along your life's dark journey
Your ship of broken dreams ended lost at sea
There ain't nothing that nobody
Can seem to say to you to breakthrough
Every time you see dry land
We reach out to you to take your hand
It never seems to matter, no
You always end up falling again cause your
Lost on a ship in a bottle
Lost on a ship in a bottle
Always lost on a ship in a bottle
Always drifting away
Further and further away
Hope keeps that lighthouse burning
Always praying for your safe return
The storm it just keeps on raging
Behind that prison glass and your broken past cause your
Lost on a ship in a bottle
Lost on a ship in a bottle
Always lost on a ship in a bottle
And your drifting away
Further and further away
You are lost on a ship in a bottle
Lost on a ship in a bottle
Always lost on a ship in a bottle
And your drifting away
Further and further away

How This Ends
03:40
|
|||
I never even saw it coming
It all happened much to fast
There was no sense in even running
Today could have been my last
Reminds me that my days are numbered
Makes me think about my past
Here comes the darkness
Like a shadow
Here comes the darkness
Black as a crow
Here comes the darkness
For my soul
Here comes the darkness
White as the snow
When it comes
Where we go
How this ends
Nobody knows
Do you really want to live in fear
Do you have a reason why
Death is always so near
You might as well give her a smile
You know that there is a comfort
Knowing that we all die
Here comes the darkness
Like a shadow
Here comes the darkness
Black as a crow
Here comes the darkness
For my soul
Here comes the darkness
White as the snow
When it comes
Where we go
How this ends
Nobody knows
