let’s take a drive out to the countryside
out there where there’s so much green
where the sky is blue and the air is clean
it’s got to be the prettiest place i’ve seen
(oh wow wow wow)
here we go down the open road
(down the open road)
escaping from the hell of city life
(oh wow wow wow)
late night drive out to see the fireflies
out there feeling safe underneath the starry skies
where the trees are tall and the fields wide
where there’s no need to fear, no need to run or hide
(oh wow wow wow)
here we go down the open road
(down the open road)
escaping from the hell of city life
(oh wow wow wow)
here we go (here we go) down the open road
(down the open road)
escaping from the hell of city life
(oh wow wow wow)
here we go (here we go) down the open road
(down the open road)
escaping from the hell of city life

it’s time to wake up and greet the day
good morning sunshine, you’re on your way
you’re beautiful in the morning glow
your eyes they melt my heart when they say hello (hello)
boom shake earthquake
i know we will be okay
we can withstand anything
‘cause we are one
hold strong, right, wrong
this is where we both belong
in the glow of the morning sun
just you and me (just you and me now)
i run in circles through my mind
the right decisions are hard to find
but the sight of you helps me get through the gloom
you warm my heart as you light up the room (alright)
boom shake earthquake
i know we will be okay
we can withstand anything
‘cause we are one
hold strong, right, wrong
this is where we both belong
in the glow of the morning sun
just you and me (here we go now)
boom shake earthquake (alright)
i know we will be okay (yes sir)
we can withstand anything
‘cause we are one (we are one)
hold strong, right, wrong
this is where we both belong (hey)
in the glow of the morning sun
just you and me (you and me now)
when the whole wide world shakes
make love like earthquakes (alright)
when the whole wide world shakes (hey)
make love like earthquakes (come on)
when the whole wide world shakes (yep)
make love like earthquakes (i know)
when the whole wide world shakes (hey)
make love like earthquakes

Whittle Away
03:28
|
|||
|
buried in the ground there’s a broken dream
a relic of what i tried to be
a dusty box floats down a stream
far away with better parts of me
what i have left is just a memory
a moment in time where i was free
in a prison cell under lock and key
a trapped heart and soul, broken and empty
don’t let me go
or whittle away
please show me how
to keep from wasting the day
away, away
contemplating everything i was
my heart is racing and my head is abuzz
messing up and falling down every turn
i can’t look back and maybe i should’ve learned
i always try to run away from my past
try moving on and not overreact
everybody tells me what i have to lose
but there’s a choice to be made and it’s mine to choose
don’t let me go
or whittle away
please show me how
to keep from wasting the day
away, away
don’t let me go
or whittle away
please show me how
to keep from wasting the day
away, away
don’t let me go
or whittle away
please show me how
to keep from wasting the day
away, away

In the Deep End
02:31

i'm an animal out to find humanity
i'm a monster looking for a soul
i'm a train wreck, yeah, i’m a broken tragedy
ready to be repaired and soon be whole
when i find myself falling in the deep end
i just pull myself out and try again
i'm a reject out to find some clarity
i'm a misfit looking for a home
i'm an outlaw, yeah, i refuse your charity
i got this, i can do it on my own
when i find myself falling in the deep end
i just pull myself out and try again
and now i’m making my way down the river
with arms open wide
when i find myself falling in the deep end
i just pull myself out and try again
and now i’m making my way down the river
with arms open wide

Lonely Road
02:39
|
|||
|
the heat is rising on the desert sand
been walking so long on this empty land
mile after mile, i can barely stand
all i ever dream for is a helping hand
visions of ghosts dancing through my mind
of the ones i loved and left behind
all the choices i made, all that i regret
the ones who tried to help, i’ll never forget
on this lonely road
how could i have known
how i needed you
all along
barefoot in the snow in the freezing cold
rushing through the wind away from what i've been told
memories of old shiver through my spine
could it be that i am losing my mind
forgive myself for the mess i left
i can’t get this feeling off my chest
if i only loved you the way that you loved me
i might not be so cold, maybe i’d be free
on this lonely road
how could i have known
how i needed you
all along
one by one, piece by piece
all i was looking for was a little release
a little get away, a little break
but now i'm stuck right here drowning in mistakes
the undertow is taking me away
if i had the power i would have stayed
a portrait of me i wish i hadn’t burned
a piece of me that’ll never return
on this lonely road (lonely road)
how could i have known (i have known)
how i needed you (needed you)
all along
this lonely road (lonely road)
had to let you go (let you go)
please forgive my soul (forgive my soul)
after all
this lonely road
lonely road
lonely road
lonely road
on this lonely road

Without You
03:03

not a day goes by
where you're not on my mind
it's sad you're gone
but i will be just fine
i am moving on (i am moving on)
like i'm supposed to do (like i'm supposed to do)
but i will never (but i will never)
forget about you (forget about you)
i'll be okay
without you
though i’ll be missing you
all the memories
they’ll never fade
they'll be living on
inside my brain
even though you're gone (even though you're gone)
and i am moving on (and i am moving on)
you’re in my heart (you're in my heart)
although we're apart (although we're apart)
i'll be okay
without you
though i’ll be missing you
suddenly you passed
and i don't know why
i never had a chance
to say goodbye
i only hope that you (i only hope that you)
knew how much i cared (knew how much i cared)
the only thing i wish (the only thing i wish)
i was more prepared (i was more prepared)
i'll be okay (i'll be okay)
without you (without you)
though i’ll be missing you
i'll be okay (i'll be okay)
without you (without you)
though i'll be missing you

Out of Sight

another long day
all work and no play
makes me a dull boy
they use me like a toy
i don’t know if i can go another day
i wanna hop in my car and drive so far away
working 9 to 5
what a time to be alive
one day i’ll be free
as long as i believe
the end is just around the bend
time to hit the clock and have a drink with an old friend
the sun is shining in the sky
the rain has gone and said goodbye
my future’s lookin’ oh so bright
and now all my worries are out of sight
no matter what i’ll try my best
there’s no reason to be stressed
life is hard, but i can be strong
i’ve had the strength in me all along
the hours are so long
and time is dragging on
dreaming through the day
to pass the time away
there’s so many places i’d rather be
but i’m stuck here 'til half past three
the clock is ticking on
and soon i will be gone
free from this chair
breathing fresh air
sooner or later i’ll quit this place
and never look back, i’ll be gone without a trace
the sun is shining in the sky
the rain has gone and said goodbye
my future’s lookin’ oh so bright
and now all my worries are out of sight
no matter what i’ll try my best
there’s no reason to be stressed
life is hard, but i can be strong
i’ve had the strength in me all along

Shining Star

gravity can’t hold me down
i’ve come too far
nothing’s gonna stop me now
i found my shining star
you showed me the way
when i was lost
i don’t know what i would’ve done
if our paths never crossed
the days wouldn’t be the same
without you here
‘cause you always help me
keep my mind clear
gravity can’t hold me down
i’ve come too far
nothing’s gonna stop me now
i found my shining star
you were always right there
when i was scared
i don’t know what i would’ve done
if you never cared
living in the darkest times
through the darkest days
you always light my path
and show me the way
gravity can’t hold me down
i’ve come too far
nothing’s gonna stop me now
i found my shining star
gravity can't hold me down
that's right, i've come to far
and nothing, no nothing will stop me now
'cause i found my shining star

Burt Gummer (and shootin’s his game)
he’s a graboid fightin' man
and his name is Burt Gummer (Burt Gummer)
down in Perfection Valley
there were tremors deep underground (oh no)
and nobody knew what was causing them
until those big worms came around (graboids)
well they were eating all the people (uh oh)
who were living in that tiny town (so tiny)
so they called upon a man
who would bring ‘em all down (and his name was)
Burt Gummer (that is his name)
Burt Gummer (and shootin’s his game)
he’s a graboid fightin' man
and his name is Burt Gummer (Burt Gummer)
then one day down in Mexico
they had graboids of their own (uh oh)
but they evolved and what they found
is they grew legs and starting walking around (shriekers)
so they gave ol’ Burt a call (ring ring)
and they brought him down to their nation (Mexico)
though he was denied critical
need to know information (oops)
Burt Gummer (that is his name)
Burt Gummer (and shootin’s his game)
he’s a shrieker fightin' man
and his name is Burt Gummer (Burt Gummer)

(Burt Gummer's comin' for ya)
(so watch your step)
Burt Gummer (that is his name)
Burt Gummer (and shootin’s his game)
he’s a shrieker fightin' man
and his name is Burt Gummer (Burt Gummer)
again in Perfection Valley (again?)
the graboids had come back (you know it)
but now they’re flying in sky
ready to attack (assblasters)
and ol’ Burt he wasn’t afraid (nope)
he knew just what to do (always does)
he’d blow em all away
with an explosive or two (kaboom!)
Burt Gummer (that is his name)
Burt Gummer (and shootin's his game)
he’s an assblaster fightin' man
and his name is Burt Gummer
(what's his name?)
