Can't Make Her Stop

Seven silver pieces thrown
down at her feet before the moon

With the fire burning bright
someone is trying to steal her soul

A dark voice come from the shadows
making promises to keep it away

Even the call of the of the morning sun
doesn't keep her from dancing all night long

Can't make her stop
cuz she wants to go on and on

Can't make her stop
no one's around to hold her down

This life she says is filled with holes
no one ever knows
which one will suck you down
and then spit you out

In the time that we have left
come on boy lay on down
let me be the one
before it all comes undone

Can't make her stop
cuz she wants to go on and on

Can't make her stop
no one's around to hold her down

Why does everything have be so extreme
why in the world
can't it just be fun
for you and me

Between you and I
why can't we try to find a way

Baby it's time, you know it's time
this world as we know it

It's spinning around and around
it's making me dizzy...stop

My head's in a whirl
when i think of you girl

And I'm gonna...I'm gonna
I'm gonna explode
I'm gonna be all over everything
just you wait your gonna see

Oh cant make her stop
cuz she wants to go on and on

Can't make her stop
cuz no one's around
no one's around
no one's around
to hold her down

She's a sex pistol baby
she's just waiting to go off

You can't lead her around
you can't trust her on her own

Or the next thing you know
she'll be letting you go

Can't make her stop
cuz she wants to go on and on

Can't make her stop
cuz she wants to go on and on

Can't make her stop
cuz she wants to go on and on

Brain Freeze

I get chills all over my body
when i...when i..think of you

So many days...so many days
feeling the warmth of you next to me

Now its all gone in an instant
what will i do...without you

So lets stop pretending
that this can lead to anywhere

What once was so magical
is now a path into darkness

Now neither of us is holding a light
to show the other a way out

And i get chills...all over my body
when i...when i..think of you

Watching you running out
fleeing...never even looking back

The cold...slowly seeping in
right where you use to lay

Sending shivers up my spine
can't keep myself warm enough

Will i make it through the night
my heart laying there on the floor

Ya right where you left it
just like you've done
so many times before

And i get chills...all over my body
when i...when i..think of you

Girl you give me brain freeze
my head is spinning from my nose

Girl you give me brain freeze
ya I'm bleeding out on the floor

Girl you give me brain freeze
my soul is shriveling to the core

Ya girl...you give me brain freeze
like sucking fast through a straw

Ya girl...you give me brain freeze
and i know...i know...you won't be
walking back through the door

hmmm...hmmm...hmmm...hmmm
you know you give me brain freeze

give me...give me...girl you know what you do
you do it all the time...girl you know it ain't right

And i get chills...all over my body
when i...when i..when i think of you

Ya girl...you give me brain freeze
like sucking fast through a straw
like sucking fast through a straw
like sucking fast through a straw

No One Around

I wake up in the morning
i look at myself in the mirror
And i don't know who i am
what's my name, what's my plan

How did i reach this time
how did i become this man
I feel like I'm caught up in a trap

Inside i still feel young and strong
But when i try to exercise it
it becomes clear that i have restraints

Why can't i let out a cry for help
no one around to hear but myself
Maybe it's time to go the other side
move on and let someone else.. reside

There's only so much room on Mother Earth
If i haven't done anything to help by now
What can i do to prove my worth
what is there to say that hasn't been said

What kind of person am i if i won't let go
i can see my silver string is getting weak
Sometimes i know everything is losing control
no way to try and steer myself back to you

One day you might have go your separate way
you might have to leave me here in my own world
It's not that i don't want you close or want you near
it's just i don't want you to worry or have to shed a tear

I'll be with you in my memory
as we pass in the night
Darling you will be with me for ever more
Oh Honey it's okay, i know I'll be alright

So open up those pearly white gates
take my final judgement as i await
this time I'll have to say my last good bye
as I'm looking back I'll see my last fall

The Price We Pay

What if i could...throw it all away
just one final push...all i need
would you even...pray for me

And although i can barely hear
i would try to focus
on your selfish demand
asking me to come right back

I've tried so many times
banged my head and fists on the walls
too much going on
filling up so fast I'm in overflow

Can't contain the mess
my world as i know it
is so out of control
can't catch myself looking in

Don't know where I've been
when i wake up on the floor
don't even know this person
looking back at me in the mirror

Is there any retribution
for this life i have to live
is there some sort of redirection
steering towards my promised land

I look into your eyes
how can i ask for forgiveness
when I'm the one to blame
shown my weakness for all to see

No i can't blame you
turn your head and look the other way
pretend I'm not in your presence
our hearts and heartache

It's the price we pay

Darkest Hell

My heart picks tonight
my heart picks tonight
ya to feel all the pain
that you put us through

It feels so heavy
like a million zillion pounds
you know you didn't have to do it
dragging me through the darkest hell

The creatures of night
they are hovering all over me
trying to tempt with their evil ways
but it's only you, you that i can see

You must of cast a wicked spell
it must of cost you a lot of your soul
because of the power it must of took
to keep me blind to what you call love

But i got the power to break these bonds
you couldn't see, you didn't know it
but I've had it all of this time
I'm gonna snap these chains in two

Now the tables are gonna turn
your voodoo's gonna get returned
baby it's you that's gonna get burned

I'm gonna sleep real good
knowing it's you that's going to ruin

No more sleepless nights
no more tossing and turning
only holding my pillows tight
pretending I'm not alone

Seeing the same ol dreams
night after night after night
it's wearing me thin
it's been bringing me down

I been getting so frail
i can't even seem to eat
knowing you're out there
out on the town laughing it up

And all of my friends say
you've talking, talking me down

my heart picks tonight
my heart picks tonight
ya to feel all the pain
that you put us through

It feels so heavy
like a million zillion pounds
you know you didn't have to do it
dragging me through darkest hell

It feels so heavy
like a million zillion pounds
But i got the power to break these bonds
I'm gonna snap these chains in two

Now the tables are gonna turn
baby it's you that's gonna get burned

Just Out Of Touch

I see your face from time to time
and i know you're just out of touch
ya you're on the other side

And the hardest part is
when you don't even know
when I'm there watching over you

The years pass while i stand still
everyone's moved on but me
still living and trapped in the past

Every day is the same for me
trying to live on what i have
no way for me to get ahead
living a life of poverty

Relying on those who swore to protect
pretending everything will be okay
but what else am i supposed to do
not knowing where or how to find you

You say words of hate
but you don't even have a clue
you've been misguided all this time

I'm not the one
who doesn't want you to know the truth
it's quite the opposite

I've been loving you for all your life
it's always been unconditional

My little angel
you're always on my mind
my world of wonder
look how you have grown

Even though you never known
i have been watching over you
gathering bits and pieces

Living through this window
living through this window

Never knowing how much i love you
never knowing how much i love you

Thinking i forgot you
but that's not the truth
that's not the truth

That's not the way it is on this side
that's not the way it is on this side
that's not the way it is on this side

Unconditional, unconditional
my love is unconditional

I'm always watching
ya I'm always watching
hoping someday you'll let me in

But until that day
i know you're just out of touch
ya you're on the other side

Just out of touch
just out of touch
every day is the same for me

And the hardest part is
when you don't even know
when I'm there watching over you

Just out of touch
just out of touch
Just out of touch
just out of touch

When Life Says It's Done With Us

It seems so far away
what we're all looking for

Don't want to be alone
but that's the way we all learn

That's the way we all get to feel
you know it takes time to heal

And along the path we walk
sometimes there we see the lucky ones

They get to hold hands throughout time
they get to wake up feeling warm

Ya like there's nothing wrong
pulling on their silver strings

And when life says its done with us
hopefully we earned the right to move on

Holding the love from our life that we shared
reliving the memories that made us care

To be a better person that lead us here

You know it seems so far away
what we're all looking for

We don't want to be all alone
but that's the way we all have to learn

That's the way we all get to feel from it all

And you know it gonna take time to heal
a whole lot of time to make it part of the past

Got to hold on to hope to see the next horizon
to watch the sun arise and to see it fall

Then suddenly you can feel the heat
the heartache becomes ashes that accumulate

That's the way we all get to feel from it all
when life says it's done with us

When Life Says It's Done With Us
(repeat)
(repeat)

Hopefully we've earned the right to move on
the right to move on
ya the right to move on

When Life Says It's Done With Us
(repeat)
(repeat)
