Bleed Me Dry 05:02
Bleed me dry, go on and bleed me dry Take all I have, and leave me to die See I’m at the end of this parade, and my time has come To do my best dance and die in the sun Bleed me dry Bleed me dry Bleed me dry, hey let’s go to A.C. Whatever you want you know it’s all on me After that let’s walk the streets, you know how I like to feel the night From the bottom of Pacific Avenue, let’s look up at the light Bleed me dry Bleed me dry Before the alter I want release Bleed me dry give me peace Maybe I’m scared by so many I see So my plan is simple I’m gonna kill it before it kills me See I know it’s broken logic, from a broken man But I just beg you to understand….understand Before the priest, before the cake Give me a prescription to cure these shakes Suck me dry and make it real, if I don’t die than I won’t feel On the boardwalk I remember the old times new, a Picasso painting so real but not true In a new form in a new frame resurrected in the morning sun I feel my journey has just begun Before the alter After the feast Don’t you know I’ll be ready I’ll have peace So bleed me dry, bleed me dry, bleed me dry, bleed me dry Make me over I wanna be reborn again

Everybody wants something to believe in Something like Babylon to pull you through We keep searching over the mountains, through valleys, into the darkness for a clue But till we get there, believe in me and I’ll believe in you I’ll believe, I’ll believe in you I’ll believe, I’ll believe in you Everybody’s got a reason A purpose to push you all the way through Sometimes we don’t know what it is, don’t know who it is, we’re stuck in the biz of needing proof But till we get there, believe in me and I’ll believe in you I’ll believe, I’ll believe in you I’ll believe, I’ll believe in you I’m just one of many all deserving more Of the dreams that come from night to sky blue Please believe in me and I’ll believe in you I’ll believe, I’ll believe in you I’ll believe, I’ll believe in you

Days have turn into weeks Since last I felt your heartbeat Right next to mine I used to feel it all the time Back when you were mine Now I sit outside And wait for you To come back home Cause I’m missing you Much time has passed, for us So much has changed, between us But I still think of you, all the time I know you’re gone but I’ll leave the light on, for you I know you know the way The way to come back home Please remember how it felt Now think of me alone As I sit outside And cry for you To come back home Cause I’m still in love with you Much time has passed, for us So much has changed, between us But I still think of you, all the time I know you’re gone but I’ll leave the light on, for you Much time has passed, for us So much has changed, between us But I still think of you, all the time Much time has passed So much has changed But I still think of you, all the time I know you’re gone but I’ll leave the light on, for you Should’ve never stayed away so long I know you’re gone but I’ll leave the light on, for you I’ll leave the light on For you To come back home Cause I’m still in love with you

Can't Stop 04:32
I can’t stop And I won’t stop Just can’t stop Comin after you The one little kiss we had just won’t be enough To kill this urge I have for your touch In fact its made it grow, grow stronger with time Now that one little moment is messing with my mind Now I can’t stop And I won’t stop Just can’t stop Comin after you I tried to push the feelings to the back of my mind But the keep coming back every single time I’m around your smile and I see your face I don’t care what happens, I don’t care about disgrace Now I can’t stop And I won’t stop Just can’t stop Comin after you Right and wrong don’t matter There’s just that kiss I’m under you spell girl, just gotta make one wish Whatever you want you know I will do Cause I can’t stop won’t stop coming after you I can’t stop And I won’t stop Just can’t stop Comin after you Comin after you…

Just Leave 04:26
You’re just… Another sun Another moon I’ve seen them come around Felt them leave to soon People like you Aren’t made for much more Than broken hearts And pain on the floor But still, I always know, when you’re around No, I never can seem, to let you down But if you care at all Let me go Please just leave me alone Just leave me, all alone I’m begging you I just don’t know What else to do I have a life I have a home Something we’ll never have My heart’s not yours to own So, I’m trying to keep it all, together Don’t wanna fall, and lose it all So if you care at all Let me go Please just leave me alone Just leave me, leave me alone Stay away Just leave me alone There’s no future here We know that’s true I’m not pointing blame It doesn’t lie with you But it can’t happen again So I’m asking you… To leave, just leave Just Leave, leave I’m trying to keep it all together When breakin down is all I want to do So if you care at all Let me go Please just leave me alone Just leave me, leave me alone Stay away Just leave me alone Stay away, stay away, stay away…

Wise men say It looks like rain today It crackled on the speakers And trickled down the sleepy subway trains For heavy eyes could hardly hold us Aching legs that often told us It's all worth it We all fall in love sometimes The full moon's bright And starlight filled the evening We wrote it and I played it Something happened it's so strange this feeling Naive notions that were childish Simple tunes that tried to hide it But when it comes We all fall in love sometimes Did we, didn't we, should we couldn't we I'm not sure `cause sometimes we're so blind Struggling through the day When even your best friend says Don't you find We all fall in love sometimes And only passing time Could kill the boredom we acquired Running with the losers for a while But our Empty Sky was filled with laughter Just before the flood Painting worried faces with a smile Wise men say It looks like rain today It crackled on the speakers And trickled down the sleepy subway trains For heavy eyes could hardly hold us Aching legs that often told us It's all worth it We all fall in love sometimes

Changes 04:20
It seems the weather is changing Bringing with it new day Seems the cold has come in I still want the warm to stay I’m going through (6x) Through Changes (3x) It seems the sun has fallen Letting the night come out to play Over and over I keep hoping That everything will be okay I’m going through (6x) Through Changes (3x) You’re so much better thank you think you are, you think you are The sun is shining can’t you see Open your eyes to the world, the world Tell me what you see I see the trees and lakes from way up high And the rivers that flow to the sea I see the earth in its beauty song And in the middle I see me I’m going through (6x) Through Changes (3x) I’m going through (6x) Through Changes (3x)

Let me be your everlasting light The sun when there is none I'm a shepherd for you And I'll guide you through Let me be your everlasting light Let me be your everlasting light I'll hold and never scold In me you can confide When no one's by your side Let me be your everlasting light Oh baby, can't you see It's shinin' just for you Your Loneliness is over Dark days are through Let me be your everlasting light A train goin' 'way from pain Love is the coal That makes this train roll Let me be your everlasting light Let me be your everlasting light Let me be your everlasting light

Even if your world’s falling down I just want to be somewhere around Even if you push me and I fall down I just want to be somewhere around See we went to the bar, had too much You were talking me ear off, then spilling your guts I could tell even then That we was more, more than friends Cause the next night I let you do it to me again, oh again Cause the night after that, you let me do it to you oh yeah, oh yeah Even if, even if you turn me down I just want to be somewhere around As a lover even a friend I know what I’ve found I just want to be somewhere around On the phone last night, I heard you cry Talkin about what I did and how he ruined your life I could tell even then That we was more, much more, more than friends Cause the next night I let you do it to me again, oh again Maybe the night after that, you’ll let me do it to you oh yeah, oh yeah See I’ll be your fool baby I’ll be your sucker I’ll be whatever you want me to be I’ll be your teddy bear I’ll be your lover Just don’t make me leave Cause I just want to be around, around I just want to be around, around Cause I just want to be around, around I just want to be around, around
