On The Ropes 03:29
Ah-ah! Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-oh-oh! I've been fighting for so long, I don't remember why And when I take it on the jaw, I wanna sit down and cry I don't wanna fight no more, I don't wanna fight no more, I've been fighting for so long, So who's keeping score? (pre-chorus) I'm about to go down for the count I'm about to throw in the towel I just don't have fight enough And no one's crying foul I've given up I've lost all hope I'm on the ropes. Ah-ah! Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-oh-oh! Yeah, I can take a punch, I've taken many before But the struggle never ends, it feels like permanent war I don't wanna fight no more, I don't wanna fight no more. I finally want to make a break, so show me the door. pre-chorus / instrumental section / chorus I'm so used to getting beat, it doesn't hurt like it did But there's gotta be something, something better than this. I don't wanna fight no more, I don't wanna fight no more, I've been fighting for so long, So who's keeping score? pre-chorus / breakdown / chorus / truncated chorus
2.
Is anyone here, is anyone listening to the song I sing for you? I know it's been hard, but we have yet to fall apart. I leaned on you, through most of it all, I thought that I was so very strong But without you, I wouldn't be here at all. Oh we should have done what we could have done And we should have won when we could have won And we might have tried but we we're tired of it all. Oh, we should have ran when we could have run. Yeah, we should have loved when we could have loved. But we didn't love because we're tired of it all. Again, I ask, is anyone here? Is anyone listening? Can anyone hear? I'm afraid to cry out, into the dark. So take my hand, and help me again, I hope that I won't become a burden. If you want you can walk with me for while. Let me see you again.
3.
Oh, I love to watch the way that you cross the room. Oh, there's something quite sexy about the way that you do. And I love the way that you rub up against me sometimes. It's easy for me to forget that you said you are mine. Every day feels like the first day. The first day I met you. You're always so sharp, you're so sharp I think you'll cut me. But my heart, oh my heart doesn't care so come on cut me. And the way that you laugh, oh it's cuts me in half, and I love it. And the way that you say all the things that you say, oh, I love 'em. Every day feels like the first day. The first day I met you. Do you know that there's nothing, there's nothing, I wouldn't do for you. So come on ask me something, something to do for you. And every day, in every way, I will fall in love. And every day I'll fall in love with you. Well, someone said that every man wants to be loved. But every women wants instead to be wanted. I don't know if that's true, but I'm telling you that I want you. I want you, I want you, I want you, I want you. Every day feels like the first day. The first day I met you.
4.
Let's start fires, let's pull the wires, increase the pressure til it blows. Let's be rebels, drunk and disheveled, let's ride the lightning 'til we glow. And the stories that they will tell of us will be quite legendary. And in the fires of furious revelrie, oh, my love, we will be married. And the chorus of angels, they will sing, Let's turn it on. Let's go wild, let's race for miles, til our blisters are no more. Make love at midnight, under the moonlight, let the crickets play our score And the tales of you and I, my love, will be told til the death of time. The stars will be the crown you wear and the moon, I'll make mine. Can you hear the poets scribbling Let's turn it on. So nevermind the 8 to 5. And nevermind the bottom line. Just remember you are mine to the end. Let's go crazy, let's keep chasing, the sun outta the east With a hammer, and a mighty clamor, let's unchain the angry beasts Let's draw down the sun and the moon again, Let's sleep when we are ancient. But for you my love, I could wait so long That eternity would grow impatient. And the stars will sing their endless song
5.
I'm enamored with you I wanna do what you do So won't you just thrill me? And if you turn me away You know that there will be pain It just might kill me. 'Cause you are one of the pretty kind You dress so cool and you look so fine And I adore the brilliance in your eyes. Oh you are one of the ultra-cool And you make up all your own damn rules Ain't nothing I won't do to make you mine. And I wanna be the one you come home to. And I wanna be the one who gets to you. I wanna take you to bed I wanna get in your head I wanna touch you all over. 'Cause I think your super-cool And I'm hoping that you Won't give me the shoulder. Beautiful creature, oh, I need ya. Don't let me down.
6.
Oh, I want to be in space, In a little rocketship In search of a better place. I want to find a home, out amongst the stars Where I can be alone. And I will take you there And we will be somewhere Far away from hurt. And we will be in love Millions of miles above Looking down on earth. Let's get there first. Oh, I want to be in space Out amongst the stars. Through the galaxy we'll race. I want to find a new Place to populate Just me and you. So pack your bags. And say goodbye Let's disappear Oh, let's leave tonight.
7.
Somedays I'm invincible, other days I crack And there's just no way of telling when I'll get it back. Some like the ice. Others like the flame. But for me, I tell you oh, they both burn the same. Super Zero, superhero! Somedays I move very fast, at the speed of thought Other days I'm not so quick, somedays I get caught. Some dig the holes. Others fill them in. But brother let me tell you, I ain't shovelin'. Super Zero, superhero! With the power to climb outta bed each day He beats back the villains of the old ennui He slays the minutes with a swat of a his hand And he plays guitar in a rock and roll band. Alrighty, okay, Super Zero, away! Somedays I'm invisible, other days I shine. Doesn't matter who sees me, I'm running out time. Some make the love. Others make it well. I just want release from my private prison cell. Super Zero, superhero! Super Zero, be my hero, you're my hero anyway. Super Zero, be my hero, you're my hero everyday.
8.
The sun keeps leaning on me The sun keeps leaning on me It's so hot I can hardly breathe The sun keeps leaning on me. The sun is a devil in the sky The sun is a devil in the sky The heat it burns like the devil's fire The sun is a devil in the sky. It's so hot, I wanna strip down Outta my skin now And into my bones. It's so hot, set me aflame now So I can just cool down. I need a nice cooling fire. The sun is a ball of hate The sun is a ball of hate And its hate shines down at a 108 The sun is a ball of hate. The sun keeps leaning on me. The sun keeps leaning on me. Nevermind the children, let's everyone flee. The sun keeps leaning on me. It's so hot, my cranium's softenin' Like a ripe avacado My brain is just mush It's so hot, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah Hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot Hot, hot, hot. Ow.
9.
Catch me before I fall I'm spinning out, out of control. Hold me as hard as you can. Don't let me escape, or slip through your hands. It's a beautiful day but it's cold outside And I am feeling numb. It's a marvelous life, but I got left out And I just wanted some. Let's just runaway, into the great, infinite wild. Let's get on the road, I'll write a song for every mile. It's a glorious time, I know that's true But I still feel so small. The birds, they sing, but I can't hear anything at all. I'm going crazy. Are you going crazy, too? Kiss me, kiss me now Kiss me again, kiss me again. And I will keep somehow I will abide until the end. It's a wonderful world, I see that now I'm seeing so much more. But I'm afraid of getting caught outside in the storm.
10.
Stupid Kid 05:55
I had a priest when I was young And I would confess to him All the sins I had done. I knew a girl, I was in love In the way that I Am always in love And all my friends We were kings of the neighborhood You could ask most anybody And the summer days, were 4 days long Yeah, the summer days, were 100 hours strong. And we never thought we'd ever see those summers go. Oh, I'd like to find a way to travel back in time To punch in the face. God, it's so dumb. Youth is wasted on the young. Oh, it's such a crying shame. Oh, all I need Is a time machine to Beat some sense into me. I have no priest To tend my sins But I don't mind I don't know where I'd begin. I had a girl. But I lost her too. Oh, it was love. But, hey, what can you do? And all my friends, Oh, they got lives, They found careers And married their beautiful wives And the summer days are minutes long Yeah, the summer months Are here and then they are gone. And every summer's lapped by winter, there goes another year. I know, the prevailing way of saying that you're sorry is to say nothing at all. But I'm so sorry for my failings. I'm so sorry for my faults.
11.
Tami's Song 03:53
It's seven, the alarm's going off But Tami lets it pass Cause she knows It is twenty minutes fast. Twenty minutes later, she begins another day Oh, she's up But, it's the mornings that she hates. And Skyler's snuck out once again And Emma, who is staying with friends, Has called to ask, "Will you bring me my toothbrush?" And Al is on that fucking game, The one he never tears himself away from Not even if he were set on fire And all that she wants Is a Rum Runner on an open beach And all that she wants is a little live music to sing to. Crazy D says, "They're after me The cops are on my tail!" So she swears That they're taking her to jail. And there is no convincing her There's nothing to be said Cause she's crazy She's got a screw loose in her head. And after hours of insanity It'd be so nice to pour a drink And simply, shut down But that's not in the cards tonight Cause Emma, oh, she needs a ride And Al is still on that fucking game. And all that she wants Is a Rum Runner on an open beach And all that she wants is a little live music to sing to. Maybe a little Journey to sing to. And when she needs a break, you'll find her at the lake Or better yet, you won't find her at all.
12.
It always feels like a pretty raw deal, When you learn that you've been used. I know it feels right, I know it feels good As good as anything before. But sometimes you gotta stop before you've got, A whole lotta hurt in store. Some people use while others are used, Like some backwards, broken game. There's little sense to most everything, About the way we love and hate. I don't wanna beat against, I don't wanna be against the wall. The friction, the fire, the cheaters, the liars I don't wanna 'em all. Some things wound and some things mend. You don't wanna get them confused. Some things break and others bend. The only arbiter is abuse. I know it feels right, I know it feels good As good as anything before But sometimes you gotta stop before you've got A whole lot worse in store. Some things build and others destroy. You don't wanna get them confused. Some cut quick and others play coy And some bare flags of truce.
13.
Let's go, go, go down the wild path Where the poets swing and the madmen laugh. Let's climb, climb, climb through the city hills Where the hunters claim the skin of their kills. Oh, the things that we do, the things that we do I wanna do 'em with you. Let's dance, dance, dance underneath the moon To the pick-up band with the guy playing spoons. Let's drop, drop, drop from the boughs of a tree Into the churning, briny sea. Oh, the things that we do, the things that we do I wanna do 'em with you. Where you go, I wanna go. Let's swing, swing, swing from a telephone pole. Let's drink all night and tell the stories we know. Let's fall, fall, fall from the top of a bridge Yeah, let's make the plunge, just to say that we did. Oh, the things that we do, the things that we do I wanna do 'em with you. Where you go, I wanna go. I don't wanna be alone. I've been alone for so damn long And I am growing weary from it all. So won't you share a little love I could use a little love, Give me wings to help me with the fall. Oh, I want so very little from this life. Oh, I get so very little from this life. I know. Let's go, go, go down the rabbit hole I've got the wine and you've got the gold. Let's fall, fall, fall under a spell 'Cause I love you and that's just as well Oh, the things that we do, the things that we do I wanna do 'em with you. (alternate lyrics) And when we've reached the very end And we've run out of time to spend And all we are is jumbled memories. We can sit and drink a beer And laugh about our yester years. And many will simply not believe.
14.
Yes, I know it's hard, it's getting harder all the time You put your back against the wall and brace yourself and push with all your might. But nothing's moving, nothing's going anywhere And you shove til you're exhausted throw your hands up and you cry out in despair But don't you ever give up No, don't you let it get its claws into you Those other motherfuckers, oh, what do they do? So let's crack open a bottle And let us tune up our guitars And let us sing to the dying of the stars Oh, let us sing For the songs that never get heard Let's set it on fire And watch it burn Oh, sing with me Make the heavens tremble with our song Cause sooner than later, we'll be gone. There's thieves and liars everywhere you turn And the more time that you spend with them, The more like them, you'll become, you'll learn And it hurts to say it but I don't like where we've arrived Where the rich keep getting richer And the poor, Well, the poor, they just keep dying. I'm just a broken songster Writing songs that no one will buy. I have no power to make it right But here's another song love A song I sing with all of my heart I know it's tough And it's falling apart So let us sing For the songs that never get heard Let's set it on fire And watch it burn Oh, sing with me Make the heavens tremble with our song Cause sooner than later, we'll be gone. Let us sing away the pain Let us sing a song that makes it all okay And if I sing a bit too long Oh, I hope you'll forgive me this song.
15.
Karla's Song 03:37
When the phone chimed Telling her she had a text She was angry For she knew just who had left it Even though she had erased his number from her phone She had it memorized, Oh, how could she not After their history, How could she have forgot? There was no way It was emblazoned in her memory She was almost over him, you see. She was almost over him, you see. So she opened her phone reluctantly. Let's go back six years, or maybe it was five And she was working at the library part-time When she met the boy that would turn her world Upside-down. He was a gamer, he was ostensibly a geek He liked sci-fi and he played some D&D And he made her laugh Until he made her weep She was almost over him, you see. She was almost over him, you see. So she opened her phone reluctantly. So she opened it up and it read, "I. MISS. YOU." Three words. "I. MISS. YOU." Really? "I. MISS. YOU." So she responded with just one word. "Bullshit." So they're together and they're hoping for the best But she remembers every minute of the past So she holds on tight to every moment of joy Since she opened her phone.
16.
Today is beautiful day. Let's get out, let's go and play. I wanna see you in the sun. Let's go hang with everyone. Let's drink our fill of beers. It's the perfect time of year. Today is beautiful day. Let's call in sick today. I wanna get out in the sun. I wanna hang with everyone. Come lover let's Get out in the sun and sweat Summer is a time for falling in love. A time for gettin' out of the push and shove Let's fall in love in the summer. Today is a beautiful day. Let's not let it waste way. Let's go hang with all our friends. I hope the summer never ends. Let's go breathe the summer air. The day has never been so fair. Summer is a time for singing songs with friends. A time for making love that never ends. Let's get out in the summer.
17.
I'm too afraid to ever try to kill myself I'm too scared of not being around But I don't know why I'm holding on so desperately 'Cause nothing is building, instead it's tumbling down. I feel like the end of a song, oh I'm fading out. Certainly once everyone sang along. But the last refrain was oh, so long ago And no one cares for a song gone on too long. So let's say goodbye, remember me to your family Oh, hold on tight to the memory of when we used to be Thicker than thieves, larger than life Like demigods at a bacchanal With fire in our hearts and stars in our eyes We were fucking unstoppable. So let's say goodbye, remember me to your family Oh, hold on tight to the memory of what used to be. I know you're done, you've moved on, and you left me here. And sometimes when you see me, oh, you smile. And you think to yourself, at least he's still fighting the good fight. But I'm here to say, you can go straight to hell. Oh, my fire will never go out. My fire will never burn down. I'll sing it again, I 'll sing it out loud.
18.
Oh, my heart is full of sand and my intellect's unmanned and my joy has been remanded without bond. Oh, my fires do not burn And my yearnings do not yearn And I want for want it's all I want. there is nothing I can do I've been bled dry It's true. Oh my dreams have all been dreamt And my hope is all but spent And I plan on making plans some other day. So let me disconnect let me suffer from neglect let me disaffect everything Doo, doo, doo, I don't know what to do. My star has lost its shine Oh, the darkness I've made mine. My ways is lost and I don't mind at all. My voice is barely heard. And I cannot find the words As I sit alone in my bedroom.
19.
Sex is fun, let's do it again let's stay home tonight. (2x) I want you so So take off your clothes And come over here and let me love you, honey. Sex is fun, Let's do it again, Let's stay home tonight. (2x) Oh, I'm down with romance But, let's take off our pants And the rest of it too I'm gonna love you. And when we're making love Oh, we're on fire Well, not actually on fire. Being on fire would really suck I bet it hurts I bet it really does. But oh, I'm gonna love you. And oh, you're gonna love me. And ten minutes after we'll done we'll fall asleep. I know that it must sting when I fall asleep But know that you can always just wake me. All I ask is that you give me ten minutes... Maybe 20
20.
I'm so tired, I just wanna lay down And rest my eyes and finally fall asleep I'm so worn from carrying this burden I just wanna put it down and finally sleep I just want to fall into a dreamless sleep For a thousand years I'll keep I just need to give in to the torpor I just want to sleep it all away I don't ever want to wake Oh, to fall into the deepest slumber I'm so tired, I think I will lay down And rest my head upon the naked ground And she you see my recumbent body Would you throw some earth And leave without a sound?
21.
Of Two Minds 04:29
(This song was written to intentionally confuse the lyrics. So, I'm gonna not post them here. But, if you want to hear each voice clearly, just listen to the left headphone and then listen to the right. They are hard-panned, to make it easier to understand.)
