Feel It In Your Bones

There's the light on again
it's so bright when it begins
the sun comes up so quickly
just way too early for us

Loving the night for the darkness
feeling the cool of the moon
always shining down on everything
that's when we feel alive the most

Can't you hear it calling
can't you feel it in your bones

There's a whisper on the wind
there's something in it's tone
better run and find a place hide
before you become one of the missing

Can't you hear it calling
can't you feel it in your bones

Those footsteps are getting closer
people stopping just to stare
no mirrors close to save you
besides the reflection you wouldn't know

Can't you hear it calling
can't you feel it in your bones

Their hunger is for the wicked
their posture is forever bold
always looking for their weakness
always trying to find a way to get in

Can't you hear it calling
can't you feel it in your bones

They don't have faith in Jesus
they don't even believe Moses
or that he parted the great red seas

They couldn't care if you call on God
they know he won't intervene
there's no such thing as justice
after they've gone and left you to bleed

Can't you hear it calling
can't you feel it in your bones

The white light it's come a calling
it's your time to take you away
but you can't move your still crying
this life you didn't want to leave

Can't you hear it calling
can't you feel it in your bones

Not Waiting Anymore

Did you think I would wait forever
too many nights
with a broken heart
you know you've left me here
crying in the dark

But now I've had enough
ya I'm moving on

So did you think I would wait forever
while you had your fun
out on the town
all my friends would call
telling me
how you did me wrong

But now I've had enough
ya I'm moving on
I'm moving on
I've had enough
ya I'm
I'm moving on
on and on

So did you think I would wait forever
to hear your lies
to listen to how
you're gonna change your ways
you've hardened my heart
now I'm strong enough
to tell you good bye

Good bye, Good bye
I'm ready, ya I'm ready
for a brand new start
can't wait for this feeling
to lift me up
there's a new horizon
with a brand new day
it's me..ya it's me

But now I've had enough
ya I'm moving on
ya I'm moving on
no more waiting
I'm free
ya I'm free
free to believe in me

So I'm not waiting anymore
don't call me on the phone
don't waive hello
when you see me in the street

don't come by knocking on my door
late late at night
you're not welcome
not in my life...anymore

When You Want to Cheat

I'm working on a way
ya something to believe in
a place I can call my own

Somewhere deep in my darkness
have to keep it hidden deep within
ya I can't afford to let it get on out

Girl you came to me on a winters night
promising me everything and the moon
but you never, never kept your word
you got the same old excuse
always saying it's...it's way too soon

I know..i know
you love to tease me until i burst
i know...i know
you love to taste me when I'm feeling hurt
i know...i know
you love to crank up the heat
i know...i know...i know
when you want to bring me down
ya girl...when you want to cheat

Out on the dance floor
you know you're the flirt
you do it with everyone else but me
girl just how am i supposed to feel
when you have eyes for all of them
how am i...how am i...supposed to compete

You won't let me go
when i say it's time for me to leave
i know deep down there's nothing here for me
but something...something compels me stay
especially when you look me in the eye
i just melt down to my core

There's nothing in this world
more than the way i want you
there's nothing brighter than a star
that wont keep me from seeing you

Ya I'm working on a way
ya something to believe in
a place i can call my own
you got the same old excuse
always saying it's...it's way
way..way..way...way too soon

Girl...when are you gonna let me in
i don't know...how much longer i can wait
you're never by side when i need you most
i can't ever get you on the phone
cuz when i come by....you're never home

I know..i know
you love to tease me until i burst
i know...i know
you love to taste me when I'm feelin hurt
i know...i know
you love to crank up the heat
i know...i know...i know
when you want to bring me down
ya girl...when you...when you
when you...want to cheat

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
