Lifeboats

I wanna live someone else’s life
Take their car, Drive their wife
Been running out of luck for too long
All these years swimming out to sea
Nobody comes to rescue me
Can’t believe I’m still holding on
I look round, we’re all the same,
Praying for lifeboats every day
Dreamers go down, dreams don’t float
They won’t save us now
Desperation’s in the air
Like virus spreading everywhere
Infecting the heart and the mind
It’s long way to the top
When the broken wood starts to rot
On the ladder you been trying climb
I look round, we’re all the same,
Praying for lifeboats every day
Dreamers go down, dreams don’t float
They won’t save us now
They won’t save us now
On the other side, at the bottom of the sea
There’s open grave of washed up dreams
Grandma’s Hands and her tambourine
Tapping out a rhythm that’s haunting me
Taking me back to when I was young
All the time in the world to become
The drifting man I am today
Let ocean take our dreams away

Company

Life is bitter when you try to tow the line
So much sweeter when you’re guilty of a crime
People think I turned the water into wine
Stole another’s guy’s song, told you it was mine
Well I know what is right
And doing what is right never did much for me
I’ve had enough of being
I’ll cross the line if it makes you mine tonight
What I want is company, that don’t come for free
I paid the price for company, there’s no stopping me, no stopping now
Women love a man who brings them to their knees
When you’re the King the girls will kill to be Queen
Slayed the dragon, tamed the crowd with the devil’s touch
Did all with the hand of God, thank you very much
Well I know what is right
And doing what is right never did much for me
I’ll cross the line if it makes you mine tonight
What I want is company, that don’t come for free
I paid the price for company, there’s no stopping me, no stopping now
Your honor I know a killed man
I took out the gun of his hand
The crown was on the ground just lying there
A single bullet got the world to care
Well I know what is right
And doing what is right never did much for me
I’ll cross the line if it makes you mine tonight
What I want is company, that don’t come for free
I paid the price for company, there’s no stopping me, no stopping now

When We're Gone
04:32

Cold
Stripped to the bone
Circling crows
Wait for me to die
But I’m strong
Hard as a stone
Done selling my soul
If that what it takes to survive
To give and to wait for something back
Who would do something stupid like that
Call us crazy, what’s really insane
Is thinking they’ll change
They never change
The world is place we don’t belong
We’re taking our hearts and moving on
You spit in our face but you’re gonna hate us when we’re gone
Scars
That’s all we are
Burned by the light of the stars
When we meant shine
Once I was young, had all the aces up my sleeve
One by one I watched them leave
The river’s full of losers just like me
To love and to hope they give back
How did we let them get away with that?
Call us crazy, what’s really insane
Is thinking they’ll change
They never change
The world is place we don’t belong
We’re taking our hearts and moving on
You spit in our face but you’re gonna hate us when we’re gone

A River Away
03:33
|

Streets are full
Of people living lives like us
Waiting on a dream to come
And take them away, a dream’s not a bus
Take a look inside yourself
Take the journey by yourself
The Brooklyn Bridge is just a bridge
Nothing but stone, it won’t bring you home
I’m standing on the other side
I need you to make it tonight
When you’re falling love
You can’t be afraid
Come over, I’m only a river away
When the heart is on fire
Stop chasing the rain
Go ahead baby jump in the water
I’m only a river
Away with doubt
We know what that’s all about
Spending nights alone
With thoughts of what could have been
We all have to swim
To make it to the other side
You have to leave the fear behind
When you’re falling love
You can’t be afraid
Come over, I’m only a river away
When the heart is on fire
Stop chasing the rain
Go ahead baby jump in the water
I’m only a river away
Away from you
The storm is inside you
Let my eyes be your guide
The light will pull you through
The river’s dark and deep
The heavy secrets will keep you
From seeing the truth
