Seven minutes til we self destruct upon the battlefield below keep living in the moments we’ve abandoned til the second we blow Now we shake shake shake and shudder slip trip take another drink if it helps you to sleep just go ask your mother girlfriend sister brother they all want to believe Cause they’ve seen it on TV Five minutes as we tumble towards our target Four minutes to go our fate is growing closer like the ground below us 30 seconds to go Now we shake shake shake and shudder slip trip take another drink if it helps you to sleep just go ask your mother girlfriend sister brother they all want to believe Cause they’ve seen it on TV When we crash to the ground and the fire and smoke fill up the sky will you turn to your screens just to see it on TV no one will believe til you tell them what they’ve seen and the stars make it a movie of the week Now we shake shake shake and shudder slip trip take another drink if it helps you to sleep just go ask your mother girlfriend sister brother they all want to believe Cause they’ve seen it on TV

You father left the keys inside his favorite cadillac you know he wants us to go for a ride One last trip before the summer’s end The sun can be our guide and we’ll put the rag top down and we’ll take this party somewhere out of town Gonna have a good time in his favorite ride like you know we should taking the turns just a little too fast but it feels so good Singing along to his favorite songs like you know he would soaring along down the 101 Down to Hollywood your father left his heart with me so now it’s here for you it’s all he had but somehow that’s enough one last trip was what he wants from you one last summer ride so we’ll put this rag top down and we’ll take this party somewhere out of town Gonna have a good time in his favorite ride like you know we should taking the turns just a little too fast but it feels so good Singing along to his favorite songs like you know he would soaring along down the 101 Down to Hollywood We’ll sleep up in the canyons where the stars shine bright where we’ll we’ll see you up in heaven one more time

Summer Days 04:08
Summer’s gone and now we’re moving on to long cold days and colder nights I count the days til it’s warm again it’s three long months might as well be ten now I’m dreaming bout Sunny days starry nights lying out on your front porch running through the summer rain and feel the sun come out again. Sleeping in Is this a sin to waste the day all safe and warm just one more hour or maybe more can I just stay here all day long cause I’m dreaming bout Sunny days starry nights lying out on your front porch running through the summer rain and feel the sun come out again. maybe we warm ourselves by the fire or we could snuggle up real close darling we could bundle up real tight Can’t we just agree that it’s a better day when we can feel the solar rays and the birds are singing right beside Sunny days starry nights lying out on your front porch running through the summer rain and feel the sun come out again.

Holidays 03:21
Hands up Sing songs the DJ he knows with the bad kids All night they’re making their noise and the flashing lights looks like day at night on the holidays spent out on the road on the holidays I know Where we'll go The side kicks fixing the spokes in the wheel and we’ll drive through to Memphis where the king got his feels and we’ll drive all night into morning light on the holidays spent out on the road on the holidays I know where we'll go now we're at the end of where the map says no ones ever been so we’ll just go explore on our own it’s a conflict of interest the lies that we’ve told let’s not forget that we’re getting too old on the holidays spent out on the road on the holidays I know Where to go on the holidays spent out on the road on the holidays I know where to go

Standing on the roof above the citizens below looking for a reason just to make this place explode I’m painting on this mask I’ve gotta hide my face tonight Hallelujah let’s go out and fight Hallelujah Everything’s just fine Hallelujah the Good Lord’s on my side the money’s not so great and the health care’s really sad but Hallelujah the perks are not so bad The villains punch the clock they said they’re calling it a night we’ll have another drink I think it’s time to grab a bite the waffle house is close but no one cares, and it’s all right cause Hallelujah we live another night Hallelujah Everything’s just fine Hallelujah the Good Lord’s on my side the money’s not so great and the health care’s really sad but Hallelujah the perks are not so bad I sit here at my day job and I’m staring at the clock I wish my friends could see me would it really be a shock would they point up in the air saying there he goes again Hallelujah the hero he’s my friend Hallelujah Everything’s just fine Hallelujah the Good Lord’s on my side the money’s not so great and the health care’s really sad but Hallelujah the perks are not so bad

Another day another dollar but the days get shorter and I get older and I’m running out of time so I’m cutting ties with normal burning bridges and knocking over all the stiffs who waste my time They got me in the ring and I’ve gotta take a swing and I’ve got to fight My feet are off the ground as I’m spinning round and round and round all night I’ll take another blow if it’s moving nice and slow cause I know they know I’m right I’m shifting gears and moving forward now the haters wanting favors and it’s getting old so I’ll just them all behind The movers and the shakers have been cleared for takeoff and I’ve got another ticket if you’ll take a payoff we can ditch this town tonight It’s gonna take a lot to slow me down but when it does it’s gonna take me underground and then I hope to earn my feathers and shiny golden crown

keeping time to the beat of the drum the lights come up and I’m feeling so numb I’m sweating bullets and my throat is kind of tight I strike a chord and I scream out loud the band responds like a punch in the mouth and then I smile as I step into the light and now i want to slow this down before it all comes crashing down in an all consuming fire that will kill us all cause you know it never lasts when were living way too fast and before you know the lights go out and then were done it’s almost over but it’s never done we’re pushing ten and it's part of the fun the crowd is roaring and I’m reaching for the sky I count to 2 then three and the four I jump up high then I fall on the floor the lights go out and then I start to cry and now i want to slow this down before it all comes crashing down in an all consuming fire that will kill us all cause you know it never lasts when were living way too fast and before you know the lights go out and then were done Now the second hand is turning fast on the march of time that I just can’t make it last I would rather burn out now than fade away tonight and now i want to slow this down before it all comes crashing down in an all consuming fire that will kill us all cause you know it never lasts when were living way too fast and before you know the lights go out and then were done

Junior high In 1968 beginning of the best years of my life We were beautiful Your brother died In the conflict overseas Gwendolyn Would you take a walk with me Then you kissed me This carousel spins round and round (And I'm dizzy) Distracting us with lights and sound (It's all Life moves on while we're making fruitless plans But Time stands still when you're around Summer time In 1973 You lost your job All because of me Then you kissed him five good years is all we’ll ever get take our time Before our last sunset Is this over This carousel spins round and round (And I'm dizzy) Distracting us with lights and sound (It's all Life moves on while we're making fruitless plans But Time stands still when you're around

It started with a kiss pressed into my lips but I know I know it’s just the same old tricks this train’s gone off the rails my skin under your nails but I know I know I’m lost now in your spell lipstick on a killer smile your an angel I love your style got me seasick but I’m feeling fine 1 2 3 we’ll rock the night I woke up in a sweat forever in your debt I know I know the rides not over yet (you said the) first taste is for free then your soul belongs to me I know I know I’ll be your lifelong devotee lipstick on a killer smile your an angel I love your style got me seasick but I’m feeling fine 1 2 3 we’ll rock the night in the morning you’ll be gone I’ll be passed out on the lawn I know I know they’ll tell me I was wrong I’ll wait til you return I know I might get burned I know I know your love I plan to earn lipstick on a killer smile your an angel I love your style got me seasick but I’m feeling fine 1 2 3 we’ll rock the night

you’re much too kind but it’s time to say goodnight but your too strong and I forget it Deep inside I can barely see the light if there were signs I couldn’t read it your love it’s like A punch and it knocks me out I’m lost in your eyes I’m down count it one two three One more time then I’ll have to say goodnight I’m barely conscious and you know it you know I’m weak I don’t think that I can fight I think I’ll need a paramedic your love it’s like A punch and it knocks me out I’m lost in your eyes I’m down count it one two three

Water Deep 03:28
did you know this was how you’d go strapped here by my side going south in the northbound lane in this heavy rain water’s deep and we sink for days when they find us then we’ll go our separate ways nothing last forever this I know one thing I can tell you no one wins this war teeth clenched tight our eyes so wide there’s no turning back hold my hand hope you’ll understand I’ll love you til we land water’s deep and we sink for days when they find us then we’ll go our separate ways nothing last forever this I know one thing I can tell you no one wins this war

The Whispers 02:55
When I lie on my side with my eyes open wide and my thoughts on the day that I wishing would just melt away I can count on the sounds that you make with your mouth your voice in my ear your whispers ringing out so clear And the whispers give me oh shivers up and down my spine the whispers send me oh deep into the deepest slumber is it wrong is it right when I turn out the light and the world disappears when I hear the whispers in my ear I just hope they don’t hear they would think I was weird how could they understand how could they ever understand And the whispers send me oh shivers up and down my spine the whispers send me oh deep into the deepest slumber just between you and me and sounds in between like a drug it’s a high but I’m clean and calm and still alive So this secret I’ll keep like the others who sleep with the voices so clear and the whisper’s softly in their ears And the whispers send me oh shivers up and down my spine the whispers send me oh deep into the deepest slumber
