Dead Door

Oh I’ve been knocking on a dead door
I’ve been living on the floor
Got to create enough resistance to take me to the finish line
Oh I’ve been knocking on a dead door
Wondering what the hell for
I’ve been standing and ringing, you’ve been having the time of your life
The faster I go
The further I climb
You know for sure
I’ll be there every time
The more that I give
The more love that I show
The more you use me up
The more unhappy I grow
Oh I’ve been knocking on a dead door
I’ve been living on the floor
Got to create enough resistance to take me to the finish line
Oh I’ve been knocking on a dead door
Wondering what the hell for
I’ve been standing and ringing, you’ve been having the time of your life
The faster I go
The further I climb
You know for sure
I’ll be there every time
Oh I’ve been knocking on a dead door
I’ve been living on the floor
Got to create enough resistance to take me to the finish line
Oh I’ve been knocking on a dead door
Wondering what the hell for
I’ve been standing and ringing, you’ve been having the time of your life
Oh I’ve been knocking on a dead door
Wondering what the hell for

It's Time
03:31

Well time’s done come and gone
And I’m still struggling, on and on
I don’t believe in luck
But I believe in change
I draw my attention to
All the things that mean something to me and you
But it’s hard
Letting go of memories
Oh but It’s Time
Oh It’s Time
To get moving on and make the sequel
To stop treating assholes like they’re equals
To seek and find something better
To completely pull together
Oh It’s Time
Oh It’s Time
Now we’re looking up above
And our hearts are filled with love
And you can bet that if yours ain’t
We ain’t letting you in
Take a look around
Get exactly what you think you found
And one thing’s for sure
Is that’s a sure thing
Oh It’s Time
Oh It’s Time
To get moving on and make the sequel
To stop treating assholes like they’re equals
To seek and find something better
To completely pull together
Oh It’s Time
Oh It’s Time

Oh it’s the place
Where I remember who I am
Pick up the pieces
Put em back together again
Way down here
But I’m moving up each day
Minute by minute
The hours turn to days
The hours turn to days
I wanna be
Where the water’s raining
I wanna go
Where the water’s raining
Down
It’s so hard to tell
What other people know
Where their hearts lie
So I keep my mind on my own soul
I keep my mind on my own soul
I’m so thankful for
a place to call my home
I’m leaving yesterday
For what tomorrow knows
Only tomorrow knows
I wanna be
Where the water’s raining
I wanna go
Where the water’s raining
Down
Pick up a thought
and hold it in my hand
Forgetting what it looked like
Remembering something that you said
It’s was something that you said
So comfortable
I stayed away too long
But now I’m here
And the water’s flowing on
The water’s flowing on and on
I wanna be
Where the water’s raining
I wanna go
Where the water’s raining
Down

In America
03:21
|
|||
|
I see the hope in our eyes
The fire, the light
It’s bigger and faster
I see where we’re coming from
We’re coming undone
Impending disaster
I see that fortunes are made
Good people get played
Greed like a cancer
In America, we can take a lot of pain
In America, and get back up again
In America, we know how to pull together
In the darkest days
In America, like lightning from the sun
In America, we come together like we’re one and the same
Oh we’re the same, same
I know the hatred is low
But wherever we go
Love is around us
I know we need a good fight
To remember our might
And rise up in power
I hope we continue to grow
Keep longing to know
Keep helping each other
In America, we can take a lot of pain
In America, and get back up again
In America, we know how to pull together
In the darkest days
In America, like lightning from the sun
In America, we come together like we’re one and the same
Oh we’re the same, same
In America, we can take a lot of pain
In America, and get back up again
In America, we know how to pull together
In the darkest days
In America, like lightning from the sun
In America, we come together like we’re one and the same
Oh we’re the same, same

Take More Time
05:16
|

|
These eyes, have seen a lot of tears
These eyes, have seen the dark, the light, the hope, and fear
Oh Don’t get me wrong
Now I’m living in a happy home
You know I wouldn’t change a thing
Except to take more time
More time to love
her
More time to squeeze her
I’d take a little more time, to let her know how much I need her
I’d spend, more time at home
We’d spend, a little bit more time alone
And she’d know, that I love her
Just as much, as any other man ever loved a woman
These ears, have heard a lot of rage
These ears, never miss a single thing
Oh Don’t get me wrong
Now I’m living in a happy home
You know I wouldn’t change a thing
Except to take more time
More time to love her
More time to squeeze her
I’d take a little more time, to let her know how much I need her
I’d spend, more time at home
We’d spend, a little bit more time alone
And she’d know, that I love her
Just as much, as any other man ever loved a woman
These hands, have played a lot of strings
These hands, have done a lot of things
Oh Don’t get me wrong
Now I’m living in a happy home
You know I wouldn’t change a thing, no I wouldn’t change a thing
Except to take more time
More time to love
her
More time to squeeze her
I’d take a little more time, to let her know how much I need her
I’d spend, more time at home
We’d spend, a little bit more time alone
And she’d know, that I love her
Just as much, as any other man ever loved a…
More time at home
We’d spend, a little bit more time alone
And she’d know, that I love her
Just as much, as any other man ever loved a woman

Footnote
03:11
|

|
It’s just a footnote
It’s what the moment told
I know it’s hard to dismiss
It’s just a footnote
It ain’t all she wrote
And in time you’ll forget about it
All the words that people say
Don’t mean a thing unless you
Hold on to them
And there is no way to avoid making mistakes
So just learn from them
It’s just a footnote
An unimportant thought
And you’re bigger than it
It’s just a footnote
A forgotten hole
Just live your life and forget about it
All the words that people say
Don’t mean a thing unless you
Hold on to them
And there is no way to avoid making mistakes
So just learn from them
It’s just a footnote
It ain’t all she wrote
And in time you’ll forget about it
Just live your life and forget about it

How I Feel
03:12
|

|
It’s how I feel, about myself, that matters
It’s how I feel, about myself, that shatters
It’s how I feel, that pulls me out, of the cold, cold dark
How I feel, about myself, moves me on
How I feel, about myself, moves me on
Everyone knows, what you think inside
Your hair and your clothes, especially your eyes
They give you away, the things that you do
Filling in holes, deep in you
It’s how I feel, about myself, that matters
It’s how I feel, about myself, that shatters
It’s how I feel, that pulls me out, of the cold, cold dark
How I feel, about myself, moves me on
How I feel, about myself, moves me on
Everyone knows, what you think inside
Your hair and your clothes, especially your eyes
They give you away, the things that you do
Filling in holes, deep in you
It’s how I feel, about myself, that matters
It’s how I feel, about myself, that shatters
It’s how I feel, that pulls me out, of the cold, cold dark
How I feel, about myself, moves me on
How I feel, about myself, moves me on
How I feel, about myself, moves me on

Don't Mess With Me
02:54

Don’t mess with me
Don’t mess with me
Oh I was at a party with a couple of friends
And some guy walked in
He was struttin' round like he owned us all
Then he started in
Don’t mess with me
Don’t mess with me
No, no, no
Don’t mess with me
Cause if you do, I can promise you, you’ll see
Went to a movie with my beautiful wife
To see something fun
And the guy in front of us was talking to loud
So I tapped him on the arm
Don’t mess with me
Don’t mess with me
No, no, no
Don’t mess with me
Cause if you do, I can promise you, you’ll see
Went shopping for a washer and dryer
Got a price on the phone
And when the guy went to ring it all up
It’s cost five hundred dollars more
Don’t mess with me
Don’t mess with me
No, no, no
Don’t mess with me
Cause if you do, I can promise you, you’ll see
Don’t mess with me
Don’t mess with me

Live From Your Heart
03:42
|

|
Rise up
Take back your power
Don’t hold out
Another hour
If you’re all used up from being nice
It’s time I gave you some advice
May it grant you a little peace
Live from your heart
Not from what others tell you to do
Live from your heart
Not from what others want you to do
Live from your heart
Don’t be afraid, everything will be OK
No one’s
Gonna look after you
That’s something
That you’ll have to do
When’s the last time that you told someone no
Did what you wanna do
Went where you wanna go
Just done as you pleased
Live from your heart
Not from what others tell you to do
Live from your heart
Not from what others want you to do
Live from your heart
Don’t be afraid, everything will be OK
Don’t think
That happiness comes
From out there
It’s from inside yourself
Other people don’t cause anything
It’s your choice, your reward
or your pain
Live from your heart
Not from what others tell you to do
Live from your heart
Not from what others want you to do
Live from your heart
Don’t be afraid, everything will be OK

Every Time

If the car won’t start
Let me help you sweetheart
I’ll grab the tools and parts
I’ll be there every time, every time, every time
If you’ve had a bad day
Come tell me what you need to say
Let the stress melt away
I’ll be there every time, every time, every time
If you’re feeling sad
I want to make you feel glad
Tell me, I’ll understand
I’ll be there every time, every time, every time
When you’re happiest
I just want to be near
To share it with you my dear
I’ll be there every time, every time, every time
