This Is Who We Are Now
Stepping outside and I’m right back in
Breathing black air of this mess we’re in
Spending all my days just staring at the screen
Jumping on a plane into another life
Closing my eyes to all the pain inside
Wondering all the time is this just a dream?
No more honey no more tears
No more of what could have been
waves are crashing d’you know what I mean?
This is who we are now
Stardust burned to ash
I saw the golden gates In your face
We were birds high on the sun
Wings were traded in for bomber planes
Flying low in a mounting rage
But you and I we hold the reigns
This is who we are now
We’re waiting to be free
To ride that high
Until the next one comes
Never gonna die

Tomorrow

Tomorrow
Your feet keep dragging down the same old street
You seem to be to be awake but you’re just losing sleep
The only way you know to be appears to be so wrong you see
And everyone around you just pretends to be happy
You’re making all the same mistakes you knew you would
Choosing friends that are up to no good
Your heart is beating at a rhythm you can’t keep
the only thing that’s certain
the world is turning
oh baby we’re in too deep
I don’t know what tomorrow brings
Can’t remember yesterday’s dreams
All I know is we’re right here right now
We belong in each other’s arms
Tonight
I know you’re out drinking Jack all alone
Soon you’ll be crying on my shoulder over the phone
What can I say to make it all go away?
To change your mood but not lead you astray?
You just need to let it all hang out
Scream and shout and dance about
Those tears that you cry are in the blink of your eye
The only thing that’s certain the world is turning so baby let’s get high

Only Love

Only Love
Only love can keep us going
through this morning of our times
And even when it’s dark
The moon still shines on
So if we hold on it’ll be all right
It’ll be all right
Free- What does it mean to be?
Open up your eyes and see
But don’t look at me
Control- Don’t wanna lose my soul but man
There’s so many things I don’t understand
All this fighting takes its toll so hold me close dont let me fall
Money- Always need more honey
I’m gonna breath in deep
I can smell the revolution
On my knees- Still praying to the money gods
Just wanna get lost in your sad eyes
These days are all we got
I’m gonna scream it out
I’m not giving up

Lonely

Lonely
I’m standing by the sidelines
Waiting for the sunshine
In the meantime
I’m kicking up the dustbin
For a space to crawl in
I’m talking real time
Later on the highway
no one’s going my way
Looking for good times
I spent all my cash in an alley smoking hash
And it’s mealtime
Brother can you hear me?
I’m lonely
Preacher talking crazy
teacher calls you lazy
You better stop crying
You try to play their game and pretend we’re all the same
But there’s no use in denying
I’m eating up your Bullshit
The world is going apeshit over things they could be buying
A hundred dollar bills will get you guns and pretty pills but where is justice lying?
Brother can you hear me?
I’m lonely
Sister can you hear me?
I’m lonely

Everything Fades
I pick up the phone but I don’t want to hear
I know what you’re saying your voice gives me chills
You talk about dreams that forever lost their way
How good people change and what we used to say
And just like that you realize you’ve got everything you need
Just like that you pick up the broken pieces of your dreams
Just like that you understand that song and what it means
Just like that you know there is no going back because you’ve changed
and everything eventually fades.
Later I try my best to explain
But all the words that I say just try to maintain
I’m a survivors guide to heartache
I should know what to do
But I can’t deal so I sigh and forget about you

The Fire
You are so heavy you’re driving me crazy
And I don’t know how to tell you that I’m broken
The fire that made us It will destroy us
Until there’s no one left to trust
I could never be a part of you
I pretended to but it wasn’t true
I could never show you how I feel
It was just too real for you
You’re so heavy
you’re driving me crazy
I want to tell you I forgot about it
But I’m broken and
I can’t put out the fire that made us heavy
you’re driving me crazy
I want to tell you I forgot about it
But I’m broken and
I can’t put out the fire that made us
Don’t keep it going don’t wish for the morning
Cause the veil of night was meant for you and me dear
The fire that made us it will destroy us
Until there’s nothing left but dust

Look Innocent
There’s a game that we play that I always lose
Cause I don’t know the rules
But that’s ok baby I have no regrets
when I think about you I forget that I made peace with my roots
Now Listen
You have a way with words that make everything sound old but I have hope for our future
Cause you know one day baby
We’re all bound fall into each other’s arms and spiral out of control.
Come break my heart
but don’t look so innocent
don’t look so innocent
Break my heart
but don’t look so innocent
don’t look so innocent
I remember that time you said maybe we should get a pet
You said you like birds and cats and I said dogs are definitely the best
So we argued for a while then decided we’d be better off if we didn’t get anything at all
Cause commitment is hard but life is harder so why should you bother with a cheap trick like me why can’t you see?
Maybe we’ll just stay together
live forever baby never say never
let’s make a run for our lives
Look inside and see what’s hidden
In our hearts we are bleeding
We do what we do to survive

Full On You

Full on You
Do you know exactly who you are?
Are you getting close or still so far?
Somehow you’re running through the park
you buried feelings in the dark
You gotta wanna run
It’s easier said then done.
I wish I could change you and the way you feel
But I don’t blame you you just needed to heal Like that time you told me you were letting go
It was so hard to do
My moon’s not waning it’s full on you
I wear a ring on my finger
I keep your key on my chain
It’s so heavy
The ring is from your mom she’s had it for so long
What have I done? Just gotta run
It’s easier said then done.

Shot "em
We used to raise our fists to fight for what was right.
Now we close our eyes and block out the light
It’s a funny little thing
Give peace a chance is still something we sing
Oh No Shot em’ dead again
Pockets full of lead
Crazy in the head
These days are never gone end
Never will begin never will be spent
Look around see what what we’ve done
If the battle has ended tell me who has won
Wounds unseen as we bleed from inside
We’ve gotta hurry time is not our side
Shout it out put a bullet in my heart
I remember the flowers but I lost my power
On the floor I need more
I want more give me more
