LOST MY PORTAL
CAN’T FIND THE DOOR
AND NOW IT LOOKS LIKE
I FORGOT WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR
WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR
I NEED A FAVOR
YOU GOT THE KEYS
I’M ASKING NICELY
I’M ASKING BABY PLEASE
BABY PLEASE
(I CAN’T READ A WORD YOU’RE SHOWING)
YOU SAID BE CAREFUL
THE FRIENDS YOU CHOOSE
THE NICE ONES LOVE YOU
THE BAD ONES
LEAVE YOU BLACK AND BRUISED
BLACK AND BRUISED
I DIDN’T LISTEN
I NEVER DO
AND UP AHEAD
ANOTHER WALL I HOPE YOU’LL PULL ME THROUGH
JUST PULL ME THROUGH
(I CAN’T READ A WORD YOU’RE SHOWING
TELL ME WHERE THE HELL WE’RE GOING)
COME ON BABY TAKE ME TO THE OTHER SIDE

LET ME HEAR LET ME HEAR RIGHT
WHAT YOU JUST SAID
YOU’RE NOT BETTER OFF LIVING
YOU’LL BE BETTER OFF DEAD
I’VE GOT THESE THOUGHTS TOO
THEY SWIM IN MY HEAD
THESE ARE THINGS
THAT ARE BETTER OFF SAID
CH: AND YOU’LL SAY THESE WORDS ‘CAUSE YOU KNOW YOU CAN YOU’LL BREAK MY
HEART ‘CAUSE YOU KNOW YOU CAN
TAKE IT BACK TAKE IT BACK NOW
WHAT YOU JUST SAID
THESE THINGS YOU’RE SAYIN’
TYING KNOTS IN MY HEAD
I WATCH YOU SMOLDER
I WATCH YOU SLOW BURN
SO MANY THINGS
LEFT TO UNLEARN
CH: AND YOU’LL SAY THESE WORDS ‘CAUSE YOU KNOW YOU CAN YOU’LL BREAK MY
HEART ‘CAUSE YOU KNOW YOU CAN
SET IT FREE SET IT FREE NOW
THIS MESS IN YOUR HEAD
IF YOU’RE NOT BETTER OFF LIVING
THEN I’M BETTER OFF DEAD

Angel

I DIDN’T GET TOO FAR / FLYING MILES / BENEATH THE RADAR
FROM TOWN TO TOWN / RAZING FRIENDSHIPS / TO THE GROUND
SO IF YOU SEE ME COME YOUR WAY / TURN AND WALK THE OTHER WAY
I’M AN ANGEL / FLYING TOO LOW / TO THE GROUND
CH: I GAVE IT ALL MY SECOND BEST / THEN I LAID IT DOWN FOR A NEEDED
REST
SAFE DOWN HERE I’M COMING HOME / NOW IT’S SAFE TO SAY THAT
YOU’RE NOT ALONE
I TOOK IT TO THE HEAD / I HELD MY BREATH / UNTIL MY FACE TURNED RED
AND THAN I WOKE UP / ‘CAUSE I REALIZED / I WASN’T DEAD
SO IF YOU SEE ME COME YOUR WAY / TURN AND WALK THE OTHER WAY
I’M AN ANGEL FLYING TOO LOW / TO THE GROUND
CHORUS:
AND ON THE RADIO / I’LL FILL THE HOLE / THEY CALL A LACK OF SOUL
BECAUSE THE SHAPE IT’S IN /IT MAKES ME SICK / AND IT’S A SIN
SO IF YOU SEE ME COME YOUR WAY / TURN AND WALK THE OTHER WAY
I’M AN ANGEL FLYING TOO LOW / TO THE GROUND
CHORUS:

I DO THINGS CLEAN
BUT YOU KNOW THAT I’VE
MADE A MESS OR TWO
AND YOU LOOK SO CLEAN
BUT I KNOW THAT I’LL
MAKE A MESS OF YOU
OH, I’M PAYING MY TOLLS DEARLY
NOW, FALL INTO MY ARMS
I’LL HOLD YOU TENDERLY
YOU DON’T NEED YOUR MAPS
TO FIND ME RIGHT
WHERE YOU WANTED ME
I’M HERE IN YOUR LAP
I’M RIGHT HERE
THERE’S NO ONE HIDING ME
OH, I’M PAYING MY TOLLS DEARLY
NOW, FALL INTO MY ARMS
I’LL HOLD YOU TENDERLY
AND I’M NOT YOUR HORSE
DO YOU KNOW JUST
HOW HARD YOU’RE RIDING ME
YOU’RE NOW WAY OFF COURSE
I’M RIGHT HERE
THERE’S NO ONE HIDING ME
OH, I’M PAYING MY TOLLS DEARLY
NOW, FALL INTO MY ARMS
I’LL HOLD YOU TENDERLY

Tell Me Everything
04:11
|
|||
|
YOU WROTE DOWN EVERY WORD / YOU THOUGHT WOULD SOUND LIKE ‘PLEASE’
YOU WALKED UP TO HER PLACE / AND GOT DOWN ON YOUR KNEES
YOU SAID ‘MY DEAR, I’LL TELL YOU SOMETHING’
SHE LOOKED AT YOU AND SAID ‘AIN’T THAT NOTHING’
CH: TELL ME EVERYTHING
YOU MADE YOUR WAY BACK HOME / AND ADDED TO YOUR LIST
THE WEIGHT OF THINGS UNSAID / WEIGHS HEAVY ON YOUR WRIST
YOU THINK TO STOP / YOUR HEAD FROM SPINNING
YOU’LL FIND THE PLACE / WHERE BIRDS AREN’T SINGING
CH: TELL ME EVERYTHING
YOU THOUGHT YOU’D SAIL INTO / HER HEART WITHOUT A SEA
YOU THOUGHT YOU’D SAIL RIGHT IN / BUT YOUR HEART WON’T LET YOU BE
YOU THINK TO STOP / YOUR HEAD FROM THINKING
YOU’LL FIND THE PLACE / WHERE SHIPS GO SINKING
CH: TELL ME EVERYTHING

All That Air

HEAVY METAL THUNDER
A TIDE THAT PULLED ME UDER
FINALLY SAW THE FISHES
THEY GRANTED ALL MY WISHES
THEY THREW ME FROM THE WATER
AND ENVIED ME FOR ALL THAT AIR I BREATH
FOREST GOING BLACK NOW
FINDING MY WAY BACK NOW
TO THE RHYTHM OF A STUMBLE
DANCING MY WAY HOME
SO THROW ME FROM THE WATER
AND ENVY ME FOR ALL THAT AIR I BREATH
CHORUS: WHAT YOU HAVE YOU’RE GIVING ME AND I WANT IT
WHAT I WAS THE SHELL OF ME IS NOW HAUNTED
HANGING BY A WIRE
A TRIAL AND A FIRE
WALKING ON THE NEEDLES
WHERE THE LOVERS PINE
I THOUGHT I HEARD THEM CRYING
FOR ALL THOSE TIMES THEY ACTED SO UNKIND
(CHORUS)
HEAVY METAL THUNDER
A TIDE THAT PULLED ME UDER
FINALLY SAW THE FISHES
THEY GRANTED ALL MY WISHES
THEY THREW ME FROM THE WATER
AND ENVIED ME FOR ALL THAT AIR I BREATH
(CHORUS)

LISTEN UP PEOPLE
I GOT SOMETHING TO SAY
LIKE THE L TO THE L
TO THE COOL TO THE J
I NEED LOVE
THE THRILL OF THE HUNT
THE THRILL OF THE CHASE
THE TANGLED UP SHEETS
THAT LOOK ON YOUR FACE
I NEED LOVE
I LOOKED ALL AROUND
ON THE STREETS, UNDERGROUND
ON THE ROOF OF A BAR
IN THE BACK OF A CAR
I NEED LOVE
CHORUS: COME AND BE MY LOVING TREE
WRAP YOUR LIMBS ALL ‘ROUND ME
I NEED LOVE
I GOT THIS FILM
IT’S STUCK IN MY HEAD
IT’S YOU AND ME LAYING
IN A BURNING BED
I NEED LOVE
A WALK ON THE BEACH
A WALK IN THE PARK
DROPPING LIKE BOMBS
ALONE IN THE DARK
I NEED LOVE
(CHORUS)

Who's Your Whore?

WITH YOUR SNAKESKIN HIPS AND YOUR SPARKLE LIPS
YOU SAY THE WORDS THAT MAKE MENS MINDS DRIP
YOU’RE HITTIN’ HEADS AND DRIVING NAILS
YOU’RE TAKING HEARTS HOME IN GARBAGE PAILS
CH: BUT OH
YOU’RE GOOD TO ME
YOU HOLD A LIGHT
AND IT’S SO BRIGHT
THAT I CAN HARDLY SEE
YOU’RE GOOD TO ME
NOW PLEASE DON’ T TAKE THAT LIGHT AWAY
REMEMBER THAT NIGHT AT THE 2 X 4
WHEN YOU LOOKED AT ME AND SAID
‘WHO’S YOUR WHORE’ ?
GIRL YOU GOTTA TONGUE THAT COULD SPLIT SOME WOOD
WHY DON’T YOU TAKE THAT TONGUE
AND DO SOME GOOD
CH:

A DROP OF RAIN FEELS NOTHING
IT DOESN’T KNOW IT’S FALLING
BRINGING PLEASURE TO THE EARTH
YOU’RE WASTING DOLLARS CRYING
SPENDING YOUR DAYS DYING
AND IT STARTED AT THE BIRTH
CH: AND IF YOU CAN’T FOLLOW ME IT’S ALRIGHT
IF THERE’S LIGHT YOU CAN’T SEE IT’S ALRIGHT
THERE’S NOTHING HERE YOU WANTED
JUST EVERYTHING YOU NEEDED
‘TWEEN THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH
WHEN SOMEONE TELLS YOU SOMETHING
WHEN NO ONE TELLS YOU NOTHING
WHY DO YOU HOLD IT
UNTIL IT HURTS?
CH:
MY PRETTY LITTLE BABY
PLEASE DON’T TELL ME MAYBE
‘CAUSE I’LL TAKE IT TO THE DIRT
THE EARTH SHE QUAKES WITH PLEASURE
THERE IS NO SCALE TO MEASURE
AND THE RAIN
WILL WASH AWAY THE HURT
CH:

I Bow Down
04:33
|

|
BREAK IT TO ME GENTLY THAT I CAN UNDERSTAND
PUT IT IN THE ETHER AND SEND IT CROSS THE LAND
‘CAUSE I’M TANGLED IN YOUR HAIR AND I’M SWIMMING IN YOUR EYES
NOW I’M DIGGING IN THE DIRT AND COVERING UP THE LIES
CHORUS:
I’M SENDING OUT A SEMAPHORE / DOTS AND DASHES TOO
I’M TRIPPING ON MY FINGERS / THERE’S NOTHING I CAN DO
ALL THE SATELLITES ARE DOWN BUT YOUR SIGNAL’S COMING THRU
AND I BOW DOWN TO YOU
NOW THE SUN IS GOING DOWN BUT THE LIGHT’S STILL SHINING THRU
AND I’M KEEPING MY HEAD UP AND IT’S ALL BECAUSE OF YOU
BUT I’M RUNNING OUTTA PATIENCE AND I’M RUNNING OUTTA LUCK
SOMETIMES I CARE SO MUCH THAT I COULD SELF-DESTRUCT
CHORUS:
NOW I’M LOOKING AT A LIST BUT I CANNOT FIND YOUR NAME
SO I VISITED THE OTHERS AND NO THEY’RE NOT THE SAME
NOW I’M YELLING AT THE SCREEN I’M CALLING THEM ALL LIARS
YOU’RE SENDING ME THE TRUTH AND IT’S COMING ‘CROSS THE WIRES
CHORUS:

World's A Mess
02:00
|
|||
|
KEEP YOUR HEAD UP
OR DO YOUR BEST
‘CAUSE WE ALL KNOW
THIS WORLD’S A MESS
SO STRETCH THE LIMITS
FAR FROM HOME
TEMPTING FATE
DOWN TO THE BONE
CH: THEN ALL LIGHTS TURN GREEN
RICHES COVER YOU LIKE IN YOUR DREAMS
COVETED BY KINGS AND QUEENS
YOU BUILT YOUR CELL
WITHOUT A SOUND
BUT DOORS WERE MADE
FOR KICKING DOWN
WHEN JUST ONE KISS
COULD SET YOU FREE
IMAGINE HOW
YOUR LIFE COULD BE
CH: WHEN ALL LIGHTS TURN GREEN
RICHES COVER YOU LIKE IN YOUR DREAMS
COVETED BY KINGS AND QUEENS

Wash Those Fears Away
04:28
|
|||
|
YOU SIT THERE COUNTING UP
EVERYTIME
YOU’VE BEEN HIT UPON THE CHIN
4 AM THEY’LL FIND YOU
WASTED AGAIN
IF THERE’S ANYTHING YOU’LL DO
AND ALL THIS TIME
I THOUGHT IT WAS YOU
THE ONE WHO’S GOT IT MADE
SO YOUNG
SO PRETTY
AND SO AFRAID
IF THERE’S ANYTHING YOU’LL DO
YOU GOTTA WASH THOSE FEARS AWAY
IF THERE’S ANYTHING YOU’LL DO
YOU WON’T GET FAR JUST SHRINKING
WITH FEET NAILED TO THE GROUND
CURLING UP
AND THINKING
YOU DON’T WANT TO BE FOUND
IF THERE’S ANYTHING YOU’LL DO
YOU GOTTA WASH THOSE FEARS AWAY
IF THERE’S ANYTHING YOU’LL DO
