Take The Sun

Take The Sun
All you do is talk black and white
About what colour means
Envy tearing you all up inside
And you can’t wash it clean
What could ever change your attitude
When promises are lies
The sky cries
You take the sun
And have your fun
You take it from the sky
And make me pay for every ray
You take it away from me
You take the sun
All you do is try to drag me down
And make me bleed away
Fill the empty space inside of you
Covered by shade
Light is fading
You take the sun
And have your fun
You take it from the sky
And make me pay for every ray
You take it away from me
You take the sun
You take it away from me
You take the sun
You can’t bring me down
You take the sun
And have your fun
Take it from the sky
And make me pay for every ray
You take it away from me
You take the sun
And have your fun
Take it from the sky
And make me pay for every ray
You take it away from me
You take the sun
You take the sun
You take the sun
You take the sun

Into You
03:24

Into You
Walking on the side of the road
Following you wherever you go
Trying not to make it a secret
How long I can keep it
I don’t know
You got me
Falling Into you
Into you
I’m into you
Into you
Walking on the side of my dreams
Hope not to wake up
Not open my eyes
You might not want it to happen
But it did and you don’t realize
How you got me
Falling into you
Into you
I’m into you
Into you
Why am I so damn shy to be
To show you the colours
You paint everyday pictures to see
You make things real
The way you let ‘em be
Just like me
Falling into you
Into you
I’m into you
Into you
I’m into you
Into you
I’m into you
Into you

Maybe Yes, Maybe No

Maybe Yes, Maybe No
I know it ain’t easy
Easy to be just a little part of this galaxy
Time taught me better, life turned around
Lost myself
I’m so glad you found me
Maybe yes, maybe no
There ain’t no way I don’t wanna go
Without you beside me
I followed the short cuts
Thought I was smart
Then the tables turned and I went back to the start
And you told me to carry on
Step by step and go for the long haul
Maybe yes, maybe no
There ain’t no guarantees that I know
Maybe you, maybe me
If there’s a difference I don’t wanna see
I’m so glad you found me
I’m so glad you found me
Standing on shaky ground
Sometimes lost, sometimes found
Let’s cruise together far away
And ride the light towards the day
Today
Maybe yes, maybe no
There ain’t no guarantees for nothing at all
Maybe cruel, maybe kind
We can give each other peace of mind
Maybe yes, maybe no
Maybe yes, maybe no
I’m so glad I found you
I’m so glad I found you

You're A Sin
03:41

You’re A Sin
Lying in an empty bed in an empty room
Waiting for you to call and tell me that you’ll be here soon
My heart is hanging over and my body’s aching too
Many times I tried to resist
But there ain’t nothing I can do
How can something bad feel so good
How can something bad feel like you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Keeping out of range and out of mind for awhile
Living on the edge of the real world
It keeps putting us on trial
How can something bad feel so good
How can something bad feel like you
You’re a drug, you’re a sin
You shut me out of everything
You’re a drug, you’re a sin
There ain’t no chance of me giving in
You’re a sin
You’re a sin
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Push it in lil’ deeper, give me all you’ve got today
A nice lil’ overdose of you should help me ease this pain
Before I go insane
How can something bad feel so good
How can something bad feel like you
How can something bad feel so good
How can something bad feel like you
How can something bad feel so good
How can something bad feel like you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Foolish

Foolish
Foolish, foolish
Don’t cover your eyes
Don’t pull down the blinds
It’s been dark too long
And it’s poisoned our minds
Didn’t recognize it then
How I pushed you aside
Gave up with no fight
It’s foolish to let it slip away
Foolish - Now I know how love dies
Foolish - Pretending it’s OK
While I got lost within
Said it all before
Please forgive me when I repeat myself
I love you everything
I’m here to confess
Just get out of this mess
It’s foolish to let it slip away
Foolish - Now I know how love dies
Foolish - Pretending it’s OK
While I got lost within
Take these broken parts
And finally make ‘em one again
Hear the clock is ticking
Let time heal what’s left
And bring on a new shine
A new shine
Foolish - How long am I able to take it
Foolish - Don’t wanna know, don’t wanna go
Foolish - Don’t care for anything but myself
Foolish - And dying for a brand new me

Shut The World Down Honey
Anger dies beneath the night
So let it cool down
Fireflies give us light
It’s all we need now
Suck my love straight from my lips
And hold me tonight
Hold me tomorrow
Shut the world down honey
Bring in the night
We got all we need
So lay down
Lay down, tonight
Close the curtains and leave the world
Outside of us now
Mute the talking of senseless words
And love me tonight
Love me tomorrow
Shut the world down honey
Bring in the night
We got what we want here
This is our time
Let love rule us baby
Let me be the one
Shut the world down honey
And lay down
Lay down
Lay down
Lay down, tonight
Shut the world down honey
Bring the night
Shut the world down baby
Dim the lights
We got what we wanted
Cause I got you
Shut the world down honey
And you got me
Shut the world down honey
Cause I got you
Shut the world down honey

Everything I Need

Everything I Need
It had a lot of meaning
Cause I knew what I wanted to be
And it felt like dreaming
But was real just like destiny
Along my way different stations made me change
Day by day something was new
The more I wished
The more I gave in
The more I learned to believe
About the meaning
Of I’ve got everything I need
Now I wake up every morning
With beautiful you by my side
What more could I want
Then to write a song about your precious smile
Along the way we learn how much it takes
Every day brings something new
The more I wished
The more I gave in
The more I learned to believe
About the meaning
Of I’ve got everything I need
The more I am
The more I know
The more I understand
Life must sometimes bleed
Taming all our needs
The more I turn
To what I am
The more I learn to face this man
The more I wished
The more I gave in
The more I learned to believe
The more I am
The more I know
I’ve got everything
Everything I need
Everything I need
Everything I need
Everything I need

Was Away Lies

Wash Away Lies
Keep it all inside of you
Don’t let no one see what you do
You’re better off when you’re alone
Don’t ask me how it feels
What’s behind that pale moon face
Living big a sad disgrace
Giving ain’t no word you know
Cause all you do is take
How many rules are there to break
How many wrong turns does it take
How many tears do we have to cry
To wash away your lies
What you want ain’t what you got
There ain’t no way to buy good luck
Selling us your fake smiles
Dependent ‘til you die
And you wonder why, what went wrong
How many rules are there to break
How many wrong turns does it take
How many tears do we have to cry
To wash away your lies
Your lies
How many rules can you ignore
Or push aside
To erase your lies
How many rules are there to break
How many wrong turns does it take
How many tears do we have to cry
To wash away, wash away your lies
Your lies
Your lies

Good Time

Good Time
Pick your face up off the floor
Make your feet head for the door
Hear the sorry serenade
Of all the tears you cried in vain
Nothing's sacred like a kiss
Has it all come down to this?
Knocking dreams out of their seat
Off your knees get on your feet
And tell me one thing
Just tell me now
Hey, are you having a good time, a good time
Hey, are you feeling alright
Hey, are you having a good time, a good time
Now are you doing alright
Magic words and silhouettes
Memories you can’t forget
Back when all you had was time
Never paid it any mind
All the years of total bliss
Has it all come down to this?
Don’t you need ‘em anymore?
Tell me one thing
Can you tell me now
Hey, are you having a good time, a good time
Hey, are you feeling alright
Hey, are you having a good time, a good time
Hey, are you doing alright
Things don’t always turn for real
Not for you and not for me
But still I keep my hopes up high
And one day I know that love will shine down on me
So tell me
Just tell me now
Why can’t you kill my rain
And cheer me up the way you used to every day
Hey, are you having a good time, a good time
Hey, are you feeling alright
Hey, are you having a good time, a good time
Hey, are you feeling alright
Now are you doing alright
Now are you doing alright
Now are you doing alright
Now are you feeling fine

No One's Around

No One’s Around
Lock the door leave it all outside
Cuddle up, turn out the lights
Close your eyes it’s time to flee
Dream about your next success
Or about the girls you’ve missed
While they’re seducing you
Now that’s what nights are for
When no one’s around you
Everything’s allowed, do what you want to
Drifting far away to new fields
Where no one’s around
No one’s around
Feel a whole new you inside
Sensitive so come alive
Nothing can stop it now
All the magic in your hands
Push it further and back again
Jump stars and catch their glow
Hold on and don’t let it go
When no one’s around you
Everything’s allowed, do what you want to
No one has the right to interrupt you
Drifting far away to new fields
Where no one’s around
No one’s around you tonight
You tonight
Every night breaks with time
Puts you back to the drawn line
And another crack in your mind
When no one’s around you
Everything’s allowed, do what you want to
No one has the right to disturb you
Drifting far away to new fields
Where no one’s around
No one’s around
No one’s around
No one’s around
No one’s around
No one’s around

Favourite Waste Of Time
Well I’m not the kinda guy
Who would die just to fall in love
Or try to fill in for someone else
Always getting shoved
But now that I’ve met you
It’s something I just can’t explain
You’ve got my world mixed up
Help me sort it out again
Let me be your favourite waste of time
I’ll be yours and baby you’ll be mine
Let me be your favourite waste of time
You may think I’m crazy
Well, you just might be right
Crazy for you and the things you do
Can you read it in my eyes
Can you read it in my eyes
Let me be your favourite waste of time
I’ll be yours and baby you’ll be mine
Let me be your favourite waste of time
I want you to want me
I need you to understand
Something happened that wasn’t planned
And I wanna be in it with you
Let me be your favourite waste of time
I’ll be yours and baby you’ll be mine
Let me be your favourite waste of time
Let me be your favourite waste of time
And be with you
Let me be
Let me be
Let me be
