"The Good Life"

The good life is
What I need
Too many people
Stepping over me
The only thing that's
Been on my mind
Is the one thing I need before I die

[Chorus:]
All I want is a little of
The good life
All I need is to have
A good time
The good life

I don't really know
Who I am
It's time for me
To take a stand
I need a change
And I need it fast
I know that any day
Could be the last

[Chorus x2]

Hold on, hold on
I always wanted it this way
I never wanted it this way
Hold on, hold on
I always wanted it this way
We didn't ask for it this way
I always wanted this way

[Chorus x2]

"No More"

Give me a reason
To stay here
Cause I
Don't want
To live in fear
I can't stop
The rain
But I can stop
The tears
I can fight
The fire
But I can't fight
The fear

No more
I just can't
Live here
No more
I can't take it
Can't take it
No more
What do we
Stand for
When we all
Live in fear?

Give me a reason
To believe
Cause you don't
Wanna see me leave
I can't stop
The rain
But I can stop
The tears
Oh, I can fight
The fire
But I can't fight
The fear

No more
I just can't
Live here
No more
I can't take it
Can't take it
No more
What do we
Stand for
When we all
Live in fear?

No more
I just can't
Live here
No more
I can't take it
Can't take it
No more
What do we
Stand for
When we all
Live in fear?

"Last To Know"

She just walked away
Why didn't she tell me?
And where do I go tonight?
This isn't happening to me
This can't be happening to me
She didn't say a word
Just walked away

You were the first to say
That we were not okay
You were the first to lie
When we were not alright
this was my first love
She was the first to go
And when she left me for you
I was the last to know

Why didn't she tell me
Where to go tonight?
She didn't say word
She just walked away

You were the first to say
That we were not okay
You were the first to lie
When we were not alright
this was my first love
She was the first to go
And when she left me for you
I was the last to know

I'll be the first to say
That now I'm okay
And for the first time
I've opened up my eyes
This was my worst love
You'll be the first to go
And when she leaves you for dead
You'll be the last to know [x2]

"Someone Who Cares"

Every street in this city
Is the same to me
Everyone's got a place to be
But there's no room for me
Am I to blame?
When the guilt and the shame
Hang over me
Like a dark cloud that
Chases you down
In the pouring rain

It's so hard
To find someone
Who cares about you
But it's easy enough to find
Someone who looks down on you
Why is it so hard
To find someone
Who cares about you
But it's easy enough to find
Someone who looks down on you?

It's not what it seems
When you're not on the scene
There's a chill in the air
But there's people like me
That nobody sees
So nobody cares

Why is it so hard
To find someone
Who cares about you
When it's easy enough to find
Someone who looks down on you?
Why is it so hard to find
Someone who can keep it
Together when you've come undone?
Why is it so hard
To find someone
Who cares about you?

I swear this time
It won't turn out the same
Cause now I've
Got myself to blame
And you'll know when we
End up on the streets
That it's easy enough to find
Someone who looks down on you

Why is it so hard
To find someone
Who cares about you
When it's easy enough to find
Someone who looks down on you?
Why is it so hard to find
Someone who can keep it
Together when you've come undone
Why is it so hard
To find someone
Who cares about you?

"Bully"

He wakes up haunted
With voices in his head
Nobody knows it but today
He won't go unnoticed
He can't forget
Can't forgive
For what they said
He's never been
So hurt but
Today the screaming
Is over

Blame the family
Blame the bully
Blame it on me
Maybe he needed to be wanted
Blame the family
Blame the bully
Blame it on me
Maybe he needed to be wanted

She takes the long way home
Fighting her emotions
She's a loner but tonight
She won't go unnoticed
If she can't remember when
She loses her temper
Nobody knows her but tonight
The silence is over

Blame the family
Blame the bully
Blame it on me
Maybe she needed to be wanted
Blame the family
Blame the bully
Blame it on me
Maybe she needed to be wanted

Blame the family
Blame the bully
Blame it on me
Maybe they needed to be wanted
Blame the family
Blame the bully
Blame it on me
Maybe they needed
To be wanted

"Without You"

What if I walked without you? What if I ran without you?
What if I stand without you? I could not go on
What if I lived without you?
What if I love without you?
What if I died without you?
I could not go on

You left my side tonight,
And I just don't feel right,
But I can't let you out of sight
Without you I'm no one,
I'm nothing at all

What if I lie without you?
What if I rise without you
And what if I dream without you?
I could not go on

You left my side tonight,
And I just don't feel right,
But I can't let you out of sight
Without you I'm no one,
I'm nothing at all
Nothing at all

"Goin' Down"

Took me down to the river
So I could
Drown, drown, drown
Looking up through the water
I kept sinking
Down, down, down
I feel like I'm dying
I got one foot in the ground
Never knew what love was
Until you came around

You're going down
You're going down down
You walked all over me
You never thought I'd be
The one who's laughting
Now that you're going down

Take you down
To the basement
You look around round round
We sit there in silence I wathed you go
Down down down
I feel like I'm flying
I got my head in the clouds
Never thought I was crazy
Until you came around

Took me down to the river
So I could
Drown, drown, drown

You're going down
You're going down down
You walked all over me
You never thought I'd be
The one who's laughting
Now that you're going down [x2]

"Life Starts Now"

You say you feel so down,
Every time I turn around
You say you should've
Been gone by now,
You think that everything's wrong,
Ask me how to carry on,
We'll make it through
Another day
Just hold on

Cause life starts now,
You've done all the things
That could kill you somehow
And you're so far down
But you will survive this
Somehow because
Life starts now

I hate to see you fall down,
I'll pick you up off the ground,
I've watched the weight of
Your world come down
And now it's your chance
To move on, change the way you've lived for so long,
Find the strength you've had inside all along

Cause life starts now,
You've done all the things
That could kill you somehow
And you're so far down
But you will survive this
Somehow because
Life starts now

All this pain
Take this life and make it yours,
All this hate
Take your heart and let it love again,
You will survive this somehow

Life starts now,
You've done all the things
That could kill you somehow
And you're so far down

Life starts now,
You've done all the things
That could kill you somehow
And you're so far down
Life starts now

Transit Of Venus (2012)



"Sign Of The Times"

This is a sign of the times
Another mountain to climb
The sun burns as hot as the flame in the devil’s eyes
This is a sign of the times
Another mountain to climb
The sun burns as hot as the flame in the devil’s eyes

There’s chaos on the rise
The sky is raining knives
We have mistaken
The toll that is taken on you and I
You and I
You and I
You and I

There’s chaos on the rise
The sky is raining knives
We have mistaken
The toll that is taken on you and I

The oceans have gone dry
Venus is passing by
You and I
You and I
You and I

There’s chaos on the rise
The sky is raining knives
We have mistaken
The toll that is taken on you and I

I gave you what you need
I gave you what you need
You and
You and
You and
I gave what you need

We have mistaken
The toll that is taken on
We have mistaken
The toll that is taken on

I gave you what you need
I gave you what you need
I gave you what you need

"Chalk Outline"

I've been cursed
I've been crossed
I've been beaten by the ones that get me off
I've been cut
I've been opened up
I've been shattered by the ones I thought I loved

You left me here like a chalk outline
On the sidewalk waiting for the rain
To wash away
(Wash away)
You keep coming back to the scene of the crime
But the dead can't speak and there's nothing left to say anyway
All you left behind
Is a chalk outline

I've been cold
In the crypt
But not as the cold as the words across your lips
You'll be sorry baby
Some day
When you reach across the bed where my body used to lay

You left me here like a chalk outline
On the sidewalk waiting for the rain
To wash away
(Wash away)
You keep coming back to the scene of the crime
But the dead can't speak and there's nothing left to say anyway
All you left behind
Is a chalk outline
All you left behind
Is a chalk outline

(All you left behind...)

You left me here like a chalk outline
On the sidewalk waiting for the rain
To wash away
(Wash away)
You keep coming back to the scene of the crime
But the dead can't speak and there's nothing left to say anyway
All you left behind
Is a chalk outline
