Track Name: Melt That Way
Melt That Way

Got an all night feeling
we melt that way
you send me reeling
and whose to say

That we might not make it
well be torn apart
I can feel it beating
heart to heart

Chorus

When the winter comes
your still my little hurricane
taping on my window
like the summer rain
till were resting easy
in the arms above
we'll figure out the finer points
of this dark horse love

There's a red light burning
outside our door
but I don't think I
could want you more

Its a sweet surrender
a cruel escape
you send me spinning
to melt away
Track Name: San Fransisco
San Fransisco

Sit like stones on the borderline
haunting the starry sky
with a melody

When are you gonna make your move
cause it couldn't come to soon
if your asking me

I'll wait for San Fransisco
to tell you I can't wait
Hold on till Cincinnati
to sweep you off your feet
you can write the last great novel
I'll sit there getting high
enough for both of us
still we found it love

When are we gonna lose control
act with pure disregard
for everything

Except the feeling we tried to fight
awake by the firelight
singing harmony


I'll wait for San Fransisco
to tell you I can't wait
Hold on till Cincinnati
to sweep you off your feet
I'll write the last the great love song
You'll sit there getting high
enough for both of us
still we found it love

Break it down like were on in 5
we could just chase those lights
to an endless sea

So when are you gonna make your move
cause it couldn't come to soon
if your asking me
Track Name: Someones Angel
Someones Angel

Slow fade in your eyes
tell me does it have to change?
we could just stay here
tomorrow wouldn't mean a thing
deal with the distance
cover it slow mile for mile
and go down with a fight
not some forced awkward smiles

Chorus

Someones angel when the back beat drops
spinning circles on the floor
and if we wanted to we couldn't stop
one more time for the road
you know just why I can't turn around
look back when I walk away
you know that its gonna break me down
take all that there is to take


Still think about it
wonder how it could have been
the right time the right place
or the right one don't mean a thing
the first parts the hardest
guess its not over yet
I know shes not you
but how am I supposed to forget

Bridge

Will it change now I just don't know
when I call you don't answer right
you say that I had my chance and now that I'm out my mind

I stings and it still burns slow
there still fault but is the fault still mine
will you bring it back baby
make it all alright
Track Name: Highways of our Souls
I Need You

Lost it all in the back of a fast car
with all these maps we forgot about north stars
were wasting something more than time

I don't need you to part all these rough seas
just wanna know that my belief in you can save me
from myself before its gone

So i need you to pull me through
to whatever end I know
the road will climb like ties that bind
stretched across the highways of our souls

My head was empty you could hear a single pin drop
now its a river running faster and it wont stop
and it all helps but not enough

Tell myself that I just need to let go
but that's the notion that I can't grab a hold of
to battle tested to want to fight
Track Name: Set Me On Fire
Set Me On Fire

Pick out what you mean to me
Cause I know every line
The masks you wear become the dream
we don't wake up in time
I'm pacing while your fast asleep
the countdown sequence starts
it harder than it needs to be
but easy is never fun

Oh I'm begging you to take me higher
Oh won't you set me on fire
Were way beyond faking sentimental love
the moments gone
don't mean we can turn it off

Down in your hearts catacombs
I search the unmarked graves
to find where you laid me to rest
I never got a say
You say you do you say you don't
I remember when
I didn't have to ask to know
or finish to begin

Running through the alleyways that summer sun I saw it
Sinking like a yesterday these people went and bought it
You would always haunt my dreams waking up to nothing
By the way you hold you cards I'd never know your bluffing
Track Name: Into The Cosmos
Into The Cosmos

Wheres the first place you would go
if gravity just let go
if you woke up weightless
started to rise

A balloon no one tied down
speeding towards the clouds
till the earths a memory
and then its gone

Into the cosmos
well be headed to the far reach
a rocket ship made of light
strange as a dream
I can't hold this back
I'm shaking you should know

Theres no end to the love thats in our veins
a million years and I'd still feel the same
since the dawn of time
till the sky's last call



They'll be holding broken lines
when were long gone off to find
where the ends meet
where stars are born

In a glass house
a stones throw from the
writing on the wall
well chase the darkness the better light
Track Name: In My Arms
In My Arms

When we started it was beautiful
Septembers suns fading glow
burning up the sky we burned within

too good to be true and it was
the fire spread you turned to run
afraid of love so how could i win

Shes in my arms
your still in my head

I'm still in love

Your in my heart
shes still in my bed

With your memory

Couldn't forget you
god knows i tried

Guess not enough

It was too good for our own good
now we pay the price

We built on our love on a breaking wave
so our forever couldn't last a day
our sweet surrender couldn't put up a fight

I know you had all those reasons why
I could sit there and try to find
one that makes sense one I don't believe
Track Name: Best Laid Plans
Best Laid Plans

Were built to break and built to bleed
to want more than we ever need
so I hesitate
to fall your way

Cause I can't afford any cost
at the first signs of doubt I'm gone
but they never come
and I'm so glad they don't

And were running wild
I'm lost in every smile
as they cross your face
and I love this place

Even the best laid plans
lay in someone hands
yea thats what you said
with yours in mine

Stumble along the streets tonight
for them it might be closing time
but were coming on
like we were never off

Take my wheel and drive it home
another one I'm good as gone
is this all for me
cause its all too sweet


We run through the trees down on our knees
breaking the mold

Starlight in our eyes came here to find
all that we lost
Track Name: Lay Me Down
Lay Me Down

I played the scene a 1000 times I couldn't let go
you stumbled in I stumbled hard upon a red rose
I was searching never found a single thorn
please

Set me free let me go on my own way
cause we were cut from different cloth I know that they say
you deserve something perfect something
something timeless love

So
Lay me down
in a wheat field turning gold
to the sound
of the archer and their bows
say a prayer
for the runners in the night
for every heart broken
for every long fight

Raise your glass
and sail into the dream
summers past
they don't mean a thing
I will leave and you will
stay forever on

I heard the words too many times you'll have to show me
I wear my love just like my heart hard on my sleeve
I'm off to fight another war they say can't be won

So set me free let me go on my own way
find someone without my flaws and know when I say
that you deserve something perfect something
I mean it love
Track Name: Dead Ringers
Dead Ringers

No ones dead ringer are your mine
long forgotten can we shine
one more time before we go
sending out an echo

Ghost of old could we dream
steal the words from movie scenes
make our ending half as sweet
never have to settle

Lay your head inside
my tired arms
Lay your love inside
my tired heart
When the leaves turn gold
the shadows start to rust
will you realize
I'm the one to trust

Great northern take me home
across the plains through the snow
to Minneapolis tonight
running like a rebel

She was bright as bright could go
now I'm on the hook for more
saying things I should take back
but I don't want to settle

Its all what I'm never gonna need
all that you wanted it to be
yours was the last name
I ever said in that voice

The things I want to want I don't
the things I shouldn't I suppose
thats what keeps me running baby
running back for more


Inside the thin line I'll wait and I'll turn
Inside the grapevine I'll wait and I'll burn
Inside the thin line I'll wait and I'll turn
oh oh oh
Track Name: Almost Free
Almost Free

I got a whole lot to fear
a whole lot I hold dear
so its a whole lot of love
that could be gone

Close your eyes follow me
feel the sun feel the sea
hear the doves in the distance
the fragile dawn

Its a fool game we play
the jester and king
are gonna sing the same song
take the same fall on

And I was always going to take you home
I just didn't know why
I was always going to take you home
I just needed more time
Somewhere out of reach of all the things
we try to be
we'll sing it one last time like were almost free

I got an itch you could scratch
some blood on my tracks
seen Dylan's watchtower
too many times

Write me off if you must
cause when its more than lust
and still less then love
its hard to hold

Leave me shell shocked and lame
I don't still think its a game
least not one I could lose
and brush it off

From the rooftops we echo love
like the doves and the fragile dawn
said fall over me said fall over me tonight

The chemicals and the wonder rush
will it matter when were dust
said hold onto me said hold onto me tonight
Track Name: Past The Waves
Past The Waves

Well I still feel,
like this isn't real
You'd ask the wind if it knows
which way it's blown

Oh but somewhere past the waves,
All I aim to be
Is a surrender after a long fight
A hurricane that won't use its might

Somewhere theres a love
that won't leave us alone

Somewhere every road
is gonna lead us home

And every word
you speak is a poem

And sorrow sleeps

I'll be telling you I'm fine,
When the rope around my neck is tight
I keep betting it all
Even when I don't have the cards

Oh but somewhere past the sky,
All I can do is try
to fight the battles that can't be won
Search for answers that might never come
Track Name: Castaways
Castaways and Silver Screens

Now I've seen the proof
that fire dancer burning true
might just take it as a sign
cause baby you've been on my mind

and I'll meet you in between
the castaways and silver screens
all the points of no return and
the lessons never learned

I know what you take me for
and it just makes me want you more
sucker punch the starry eyed
and I'm not putting up a fight

Chorus 1/3

Cause we got the rock the better roll
came here to steal the fucking show
bets off and now we on our way
been gone but now we're here to stay

Aim low and turn your fever on
can't wait to see you come undone
time love we got those in spades
breaks nah I'm thinking thats okay

Verse 2

Come back and save my grace
write my ticket out this place
give me everything you got
I'll say when but never stop

And I'll meet you in between
the wishing wells and bended knees
the first train out of here
the last to leave so never fear

We don't need the answers now
you can trust me I found out
the hard way a couple times
and baby you've been on my mind
Track Name: Darker Lullaby
Darker Lullaby

A darker lullaby
in one part harmony
you slipped into my mind
and out to sea

And now I won the throne
a hero some might say
but time gets the last punch
the last say

You better believe your my star tonight
but how long can we run?

I take another pill and I feel alright
my hands still shaking love

I could write epics between your arms
they always end the same

Somebody's hero can't make it home
and time takes what it takes

A lie within a lie
a dream within a dream
I'm not sure how they work
what to believe

My enemies are close
the friends so far away
a candle no one lit
burns the same

We lived like the watchmen
a partial truth
the world deserves better
a savior too

These vigilantes
are doomed is all
this place always crumbles
its made to fall
Track Name: Disco Nightmare
Disco Nightmare

(intro/bridge)

You know I can't fall in love with you girl
anythings to high a price
flirting with the edge leaving things unsaid
in this neon paradise

Verse

Shes tastes just like summer
or that night wind off the sea
the moon in California
and she sings my songs for me

In that midnight ever after
when we float above the floor
and I think that disco nightmare
was a good dream after all

Chorus

On that dance floor shaking every 9 to 5
got to feed that fever try to stay alive
the whole world watching when she does her thing
born in Vegas and she'll die in vain

Cause every good run only lasts so long
something in your day means that somethings gone
oh singing oh

Verse

She tastes just like autumn
or that halo burning gold
everything you ever wanted
everything you'll never know

All the whispers of the mystery
the ships that face could launch
setting sail for tomorrow
by the time you look your gone








Outro

The rest are all gone now
baby girl its you and me
we got time to do our bidding
brought forever to its knees

Your tongue tip drive me crazy
in the dark when we're alone
the ghost you shook within in me
gonna haunt me to the bone
Track Name: The Feeling Will Remain
The Feeling Will Remain

We on that last call serenade
that gorgeous misplaced revelry
couldn't do right if we tried
think i need an alibi

or a witness sing the truth
bury me inside the groove
lock me up within the beat
every July bring the heat

you know i need you like that
that’s all you have to say
its always been like that
the feeling will remain

we on that push pull break it down
drive the uptight outta town
inhibitions all we loose
your gonna need those dancing shoes

for your crimes ill do time
lock me up inside your mind
bury me within the beat
every august bring the heat

underneath those falling stars
those back alleys boulevards
that part of you you can't control
you call it luck i call it soul

you talk you talk I'm well prepared
you walk the walk cant help but stare
stole the drumline from my dreams
the daybreak out on sea
Track Name: Home Within Your Heart
Home Within Your Heart

I get that it's over now
and I don't know the why or how
I don't want to face the facts
you see see how I react
its all in the wasting time
its all in the wasting away

cheap shots and 6 degrees
a stick up would you agree
but its not like your getting paid
we lasted so many days
and I held you so many nights
but we still never got it right
its in what you can't change


I Got a feeling I can't fight
a home within your heart
New York to Tennessee
San Fran to San Ant
When the turn the bright lights off
thats when were at our best
gonna drink my mind to sleep
let the dance floor do the rest
Track Name: Shine
Hip Hop Cowboys

Theres no place for the modern outlaws
move to Memphis learn to play the blues
I love that sham they call a horizon
wore the soles right off these shoes

oh and lately baby I've been thinking
its not to late to make our run
put it all on that dark horse romance
forgive ourselves for the things we've done

Verse 1

and chase that setting sun
till midnight run on down the line
up north to San Antone
this kind of road never ends
just have this old guitar
a head full of stars and half a tank
you know we came to rock
to take our shot
to drift away

Chorus

and you
shine through
all the static
all the sound

good to go
start the show
bought it all on credit
feeling high

Bridge

Theres no place for the reggae rockers
slow it down turn up the bass
or you'll never make it here in Kingston
that gold coast is too far away

thought you knew how the west was won kid
its was actions not those fancy words
better learn to pick your uphill battles
cut your loses when your in over
Track Name: West Alaska
West Alaska

Holding my line for you
with all the things I'll never know I know
that without you the truth
don't mean to much that last breath who's it for ?

Candles in endless caves should know better
wanna see it glow
trading my pain away for a shorter lease
a sentiment that grows

Chorus 1

In west Alaska high above those peaks
I know what your after what will set you free
in those rolling breakers off of Samras coast
is what we always needed a little timeless glow


Said what I came to say
head bowed in the winter just to show
we never forgot the spring
ill take my chances some dice never roll

and when I start doubting things
shivers up my spine still let me know
its something more than sound waves
hear your voice in every aching note

Chorus 2

In west Wyoming high above those peaks
I know what your after what will set you free
in those rolling breakers off the Texas coast
is what we always needed and its just goes to show

fall away
fall away
fall away into your arms

on our way
on our way
on our way we can't be wrong
Track Name: Under The Fireworks
Under the Fireworks

I know what your thinking
just go with your gut girl
you'll be fine
roll with the punches around the bend
and down the line
well be waiting
watching the big wheel as it turns

Drop the back beat
we'll shake it like we own the floor
spinning circles like you've
seen it all before
so go on take me
for the fool you know I am

And we dance under the fireworks tonight
raise our glasses to the sky
and toast

Cause its been a long time coming oh
and it ain't that far to fall
love

Rocking steady from Corpus up and down the coast
born ready to cut my ties with ground control
and chase that daydream
straight from the dark side of the moon

Keep on guessing I think I know how this plays out
to hell with the rest then we gonna drink and twist and shout
spinning circles like you've
seen it all before



Rolling down the same old road
on my back to you
and now that you came back around
and have that same smile too
