Second time around, so much has changed Breathe this guilt and fight to stay A fearless gesture, led by grace That look you gave…things are okay Who cares what they’re gonna say? Those scattered words are worth nothing in weight Who knows what we’re gonna do? All I wanna do is stay gold with you. Paint my name with slander, let it dry by itself This fogged up life never gives you answers you need When all you feel and all you know seems to disappear This fogged up life gets better the more you grieve This wicked sin, comes as a pair Happiness always finds despair The path was all but set in stone Walked endless miles but sent back home Who cares what they’re gonna say? Those scattered words are worth nothing in weight Who knows what we’re gonna do? All I wanna do is stay gold with you. Paint my name with slander, let it dry by itself This fogged up life never gives you answers you need When all you feel and all you know seems to disappear This fogged up life gets better the more you grieve And I look into the coffin see my face looking back I look into her eyes and see my soul is back And I look into the coffin see my face looking back And I listen to the sound of your answer Paint my name with slander, let it dry by itself This fogged up life never gives you answers you need When all you feel and all you know seems to disappear This fogged up life gets better the more you grieve It gets better, it gets better, it gets better…the more you breathe

This time I can’t relate, salt it’s misplaced A dream laid down on this soft lake bed Villains reach for their glory through a second rate story And with a blink of an eye the pain seeps in and no longer are we friends I want your skin on my face, your warmth, embrace the feeling It’s always been this way for you and I, timetables guilt and lies Place a sign over my head…I never meant what I said Villains reach for their glory through a second rate story And with a blink of an eye the pain seeps in and no longer are we friends I want your skin on my face, your warmth, embrace the feeling comes back again Yeah! Face the music Face the music, face the music, face the music I want your skin on my face, your warmth, embrace Face the music!

Sitting up on cloud nine feeling like you’re six feet in the ground Keep on practicing what you preach. Never fear change, embrace it and don’t look back All this laughter turns to pain And the dreams we shared are so far away Look what it’s doing to me You’ve got my body paralyzed and with those eyes I am so hypnotized We’ll throw heckles and jive as I do my best Jekyll and Hyde/hide my true portrait All this laughter turns to pain And the dreams we shared are so far away Look what it’s doing to me

Tragic Hero 03:47
Sirens flashed in front of my blue eyes Caught the tail end of your mislead cry Touched the lives of those who stood to fight Sorry to say we won’t be home tonight I don’t mind you standing by my side Just to see those tears you’ve cried for me If love is alive then why am I still blind? I don’t mind you standing right here with me Word travels along with our bones Hard to stomach man, so we’re told She stared at the news through foggy glass Rosy red eyes glared as one year passed I don’t mind you standing by my side Just to see those tears you’ve cried for me If love is alive then why am I still blind? I don’t mind you standing right here with me As dawn turns to darkness it’s safe to say that she found me Restless bodies trapped in between what is said and what you believe I don’t mind you standing by my side Just to see those tears you’ve cried for me If love is alive then why am I still blind? I don’t mind you standing right here with me

Rubber Arm 03:11
Truth slips out one drink at a time, oh we’ve got this covered Felt like staying in tonight, oh well I’ll blame it on my brothers Sin or skin I’m gonna tie one on and forget ‘til the morning Bite my tongue or restrain my thumb, no the simple life is boring Twist my rubber arm, I’m caught under beer pressure How does that taste man? It tastes just like another The only form of alcohol abuse is spillin’ my drink, the rest is foreign You seem to take mystery over history even when she’s screaming your name Friends come and go but those memories, oh they last forever Like a stone I’m rolling baby let’s spend the night together Twist my rubber arm, I’m caught under beer pressure How does that taste man? It tastes just like another Same ol’ situation again, friendly faces and familiar foes Staying out with the night and no real plans to head back home Rising with the sun those birds are singing lullabies Eyes closing one by one, round two is down on the corner Twist my rubber arm, I’m caught under beer pressure How does that taste man? It tastes just like another

Yeah, sometimes you have to hit the open road…a long way from home Leaving behind the ocean side to drive by smoke stacks and dollar signs East coast living in a west coast world, the youth have moved on but their roots stay true The air is dry and money is one hell of a disguise Last one to the kitchen party but I’m gonna stay all night ‘cuz I’m A long way from home A long way from home A long way from home A long way from home Wearing your nightcap on the daily with blood and water close by Some people claim that you’re crazy (hahaha) but they could never walk a mile… In your boots…the wool and weather, add another sweater to warm up them cold hearted Sheltered souls and remember actions speak louder than words and I’m… A long way from home A long way from home A long way from home A long way from home

The blood streams down your face like the river flows Miles away from all those that hold you close The back of your head has the prettiest eyes I’ve ever seen There’s no place to go and hope is only a lonely dream And the wheels won’t turn, keep spinning in this endless dirt And all the lights start to fade and there is no turning back Don’t let it slip through your hands, this is the takeback and giveaway Spark the flame or ignite, we’re all here but not to stay And the wheels won’t turn, keep spinning in this endless dirt And all the lights start to fade and there is no turning back Don’t let it slip through your hands, this is the takeback and giveaway Spark the flame or ignite, we’re all here but not to stay We’re all here but not to stay, we’re all here but not to stay, we’re all here but not to stay We’re gone

Is this a bitter end or a sweet revival? Decide my friends Time can’t wait for anyone…anyone The clock keeps on keepin’ on, is this an all for one or a free for all? Tough skin’s growing thin let’s move on, hop off your high horse and find some common ground Some of us grow up and most grow old. An outsider must learn to stay gold. Hangin’ around loungin’ in the mess we’ve made. Bring me back to sit in the shade. We had our fair share of battles but soldiers don’t stop when the going gets tough. Tough skin’s growing thin let’s move on, hop off your high horse and find some common ground Some of us grow up and most grow old. An outsider must learn to stay gold.
