Lyrics by Casia – Copyright 2009 – [email protected]

The Devil Didn’t Care(V1)

It was a night not so long agoTwo young friends hit the open roadMoney was flyin’ and time to spareThey had cruised a hundred miles

The wind screaming through their hair

(Prechorus)When you’re on top of the worldThere is nothing you wont’ dareThey were having a good time

And the devil didn’t care (No…he just didn’t care)

(Chorus)Tiger’s eyes burning crimson bright

Livin’ on the razor’s edgeIn this forest of the mind

They will pierce your earthly soulFor they are the afterlife

Demons from the great unknownWith a tombstone that’s just right

(V2)Two white knights; a majestic horseA cosmic disturbance in the universeYoung and foolish was their excuse

There's no time for laughingWhen your name is on a noose

(Prechorus)

(Bridge)Won’t you let them rideOh, just one more time

The man in the black coatIs flying by their side

Guarding their every moveHe knows just what to do

When the guardrail’s missingHe’ll send them over too

Won’t you let them rideOh just one more time

Being young and foolishShouldn’t be a crime

(Prechorus)

(Chorus)

The devil didn't careNo, he just didn't careThe devil didn't care

He didn't care

Ten Thousand Ways To Die

(V1)Alone without my shadow

It has forsaken meI’m become the walking dead

I’ve misplaced destiny

(Prechorus)It’s fundamentally tragic

When your life begins to fallChaos and disorder hangs on every wall

(Chorus)Every hill is a mountain

Every step is a lieEvery pain of emotionTen thousand ways

Ten thousand ways to live or die

(V2)My image in the mirrorCan no longer be seenI'm left without a vision

For death has become ME

(V3)I walk into emptinessMy universe explodes

Cliffs of my pathetic soulHave nowhere to grab hold

(Prechorus)

(Chorus)

(Bridge)How far is far

When your heart's grown coldHow deep is deep

When you can’t stand on your feetI'll wander with my lonely soul

Til I find someone to holdSomething to live for

(Outro)Every hill is a mountain

Every step is a lieEvery pain of emotion

Will teach me how to FLY

Cobra By My Side(V1)

In a French fusion restaurantDrinking my date away

She has the charm of a cobraMaybe I should walk away

(V2)Seems I loved her for a lifetime

Or was it six long daysI’d walk through a ring of fire

Just to be by her side

(Chorus)I can’t seem to get enoughOf the poison of her skin

I’d go to hell for herI’d do it on a whim

I can’t seem to get enoughShe makes this grown man cry

Why does she do this to meThis cobra by my side

(V3)I'm swallowing my foolishness

But I'm stuck like hot glueRambling down a seedy road

Wond’ring what to do

(V4)Should I follow my heartWhen two paths diverge

Or should I follow my headWhen all I see is red

(Chorus)

(Bridge)Oh baby, just stop me

You’re driving me crazyWith your crazy, crazy ways

Just stop me babyYou have me in a daze

(Chorus)

Fighting Yesterday(V1)

I’m fighting back the tearsI’m fighting yesterday

It’s a dark, grey morningAnd nothing’s gone my wayI’m walking down the streetJust to see if you’re home

Wrapped up in my pocketsI’m feeling so cold

(Prechorus)Oh, why did I wait when I knew in my heart

All my unspoken words were folded in the cards

(Chorus)I’m fighting back the tears

I’m fighting yesterdayI need one more minute

So I can explainI’m fighting back the tears

I’m fighting yesterdayThe slivers in my heartAre ripping me apart

(V2)The rain on your windowSplattered tears of painRolling down my cheeks

I’m a minute too lateThe moving van is leavingYou’ve left me far behindWith just my memories

And a glass of tainted wine

(Prechorus)

(Chorus)

(V3/bridge)Should I chase after you

Should I grab the next planeShould I meet you at the endTell you I’m the one to blame

Should I try to explainShould I help you figure out

That I am all you needThere never was a doubt

(Prechorus)

(Chorus)

No One Can Stop Me (V1)

No one can stop meFrom feeling the way I do

There’s a curse upon these golden shoresBut I won’t … cross the tide without you

(V2)No one can tell me

Our love was just a whimFor everything I am inside

Would be lost … without you by my side

(Prechorus)It’s the twilight hour

Nothing’s quite the sameI see the ticking of the clock

Drive sane men insane

(Chorus)No one can stop me

No one should even tryFor I walk the sands of ancient love

Wearing true love’s alibiNo one can stop me

No, no, no  ..no one can ever stop me

(V3)There is a secret

Buried beneath the ocean floorIt’s haunted by the of souls of Hell

but I have .... the key to the door

(Bridge)A fog floats across the water

Thick as any crimeBut true love’s daughterIs standing at my side

Ya ya ya

(Prechorus)

(Chorus x 2)

Another Face in The Fog

(V1) Tell me what is loveI’ve come undone

You took my things, walked into the sunCan’t get you, baby, outta my heart

You've got me falling, falling...falling apart

(Chorus) You need time to think

That’s okayI'll understand everything

One dayYou need to figure out

Just who you areAnother face in the fog

Behind every star

(V2) In the meantime…

I’m drowning in love Chasing black ravens like they were doves

I’m feeling so cold, deep from withinYou got me crawling into my skin

(Chorus)

(V3) In the meantime..

I’m hating good-byesWhy can’t you see love through my eyes

When you’re not here things just aren’t the same You blew the candle right out of my flame

(Bridge) Why is time always filled with pain

I’ve lost my umbrella, sitting in the rain

(Outro - spoken) You need time…to think

You need time…Time…more time

Always…more time

(1/2 Chorus) Cause you need to figure out

Just who you areAnother face in the fog

Behind every star

Elevator Man(V1)

He gets up early puts on his shoesPuts on his tie with his zoot of blue

Has his bran, gets in his carDrives to the office

Which isn’t far

(Prechorus)Elevator Man

(Elevator…Elevator..Elevator Man)Going up

Going downElevator Man he has a plan

(Chorus)He’s goin’ to the topDoesn’t wanna stop

Doesn’t want anyoneTo get in his way

It’s gonna be a long dayHe’s got no time to play

(V2)You can call him Mister, you can call him SirYou can take the stairs but not in his world

For he spends half his life going up and downPushing little buttons

Just to get around

(V3)He loves the music that fills the airRelaxes his mind he has no caresSips his coffee on his journey up

A double expressoIn a paper cup

(Prechorus)

(Chorus)

(Bridge)Spent six long years going to school

The elevator’s the place he rulesYaaaaa, Mister Elevator Man

(Prechorus)

(Chorus)

Earthman(can be modified to be sung by a male)

(V1)Oh, Mr. Earthman (echo:  Earthman…Earthman…Earthman)

More than a carbon-based formI’m delirious

Dangling from the starsHow far will I go

To be in your arms

(Chorus)Mr. Earthman

What you do to meI’m just an alien

Sailing the milky seasI’ll set you free

And everything will be…Paradise for two

Paradise…for me and you

(V2)Lightyears from the burning sun

My heart is flamingKnowing you’re the oneCruising in my space car

Waving to lovestruck foolsWho are lost on Mars

(Chorus)

(Bridge)Hope you don’t need much oxygen

There’ll be no time to come up for airAt the submarine races

On the edge of somewhereAt the end of the universe

(Chorus x2)Mr. Earthman

What you do to meI’m just an alien

Sailing the milky seasI’ll set you free

And everything will be…Paradise for two

Paradise…for me and you

The Touch of A Hand (V1)

There’s a girl that I know From a long time ago

She talks about love and first kisses But she struggles inside

She’s been on a hard ride And she hides behind her dark glasses

(Chorus 1)Life has no meaning

There’s no marble floors Each cocktail she drinks

Tastes like one more The sound of her heart

Is an empty drum And the touch of a hand Helps the night carry on

- solo -

(V2)She thought life was a dream

All peaches and cream With a first class trip to the moon

But the men that she lovedWore thorns in their gloves

You can't grow wildflowers from debris

(Chorus 2)The trees and the stones

Survive the storm The nightingale’s song

Will live on But no words of wisdom

Are ever as strong As the touch of a hand

When the night carries on

(Outro)No words of wisdomAre ever as strong

As the touch of a handWhen the night carries on

Do I Dare Disturb The Universe

(Intro – spoken possibly)Do I dare disturb the universe

For I have been cursedI need just one more day

On this planet Earth(Earth...Earth...Earth)

Just one more dayOne more day on Earth

(V1)Ten thousand freaks die of thinking

Squeezing the world into a ballNow Atlas is left standing

And only fools will fall

(V2)Every step seems so peaceful

When I walk upon the sandIn a moment of greatness

I'm dropped into Neverland

(Chorus)Do I dare disturb the universe

Take what I can getNever question why

Cause in the end I’ll die…(I'll die..I'll die…I'll die)

(V3)Shapeliness without formIs like color without shadeGesture without motion

Can love survive without rage(Can love survive without rage)

(Chorus)Do I dare disturb the universe

Take what I can getNever question why

Cause in the end I’ll die…(I'll die..I'll die…I'll die)

(Outro)I’ve built a wall around me

My face has turned to stoneThere’s a sentinel watching

But still I’m so all alone

Do I dare disturb the universeFor I have been cursed

I need just one more dayOn this planet Earth

Page 12: Casia's Lyrics

Lyrics by Casia – Copyright 2009 – [email protected]

Meanwhile (V1)

I’ll never give up Cause my heart is true

Every joker who sings the blues Has played this game too many times

Knows love has no rules

(Chorus)Meanwhile (meanwhile) I sit and wait

Knowing it could be any dayMeanwhile (meanwhile) I can’t escape

My Goddesss of destiny

(V2)When you’re on the run

No place to go You’ve got no money to phone home

Whisper my name and I’ll be thereYou’ll never be alone

(Chorus)Meanwhile (meanwhile) I sit and wait

Knowing it could be any dayMeanwhile (meanwhile) I can’t escape

My Goddesss of destiny

(V3)When you are ready Just give me a call

I’ll come running down the hall Take the king, I’ll take the queen

One day we’ll have it all

(Chorus x 2)Meanwhile (meanwhile) I sit and wait

Knowing it could be any dayMeanwhile (meanwhile) I can’t escape

My Goddesss of destiny

(Outro)Meanwhile…I think of you

Meanwhile…my heart is trueMeanwhile…I’m there for you

Meanwhile…..(fades)

Look What You’ve Done

(V1)I walked into the room and saw you standing there

A (wo)man or vision I really didn't careEvery piece of my soul had become undone

I needed to touch you, to feel your burning love

(Chorus)Look what you’ve done, my heart's screamingLook what you’ve done, my body’s pleading

I never thought love would come so easyI never thought love was made for me

(V2)You looked my way and I was drowning in your eyesThe room spun around I was floating towards the sky

Would you catch me if I spiraled to the floorKiss me deeply in your arms for ever more

(Chorus)Look what you’ve done, my heart's screamingLook what you’ve done, my body’s pleading

I never thought love would come so easyI never thought love was made for me

(Bridge)Is this the beginning

Is this the endIs this real

Or is it all pretendWhen morning awakens and the sun shines in

Will you be lying beside me touching skin to skin

(Outro)Look what you’ve done, my heart's screamingLook what you’ve done, my body’s pleading

Look what you’ve doneLook what you’ve doneLook what you’ve done

I never thought love would come so easyI never knew love was made for me

As Long As I Can (Intro)

The world is full of beautiful women And I call myself a man

Playin' my ol' guitar With two cents in my coffee can

But I’ll live forever And be delirious

For as long as I can Ohhh, as long….as long as I can

(V1)I’m Leonardo fixing smiles

Of two lovers holding hands Stroking away emptiness Brushing on a midday tan

I'll be captivatedAlong the rocky shores

For as long as I canOhhh, as long…as long as I can

(V2)Maybe I'm Michelangelo  Another renaissance man Sculpting statues of David

Playing in the sandI want to live my lifeLike I’ve just began

For as long as I canOhhh, as long….as long as I can

(Bridge)No more lonelinessNo more time alone

No more silencesOn the telephoneFor I’m just a manLooking for a soulAnd I’ve learned

To walk the path of no returnFor as long as I can

Ohhh, as long….as long as I canFor as long….as long as I can

(Intro - repeat)

For as long as I can Ohhh, as long….as long as I can

Icarus, Fly Me To The Moon

(V1)Gouge out my eyes

So I cannot seeFor what has become

Too painful for meMy hidden desiresMidnight campfires

Icarus, fly me to the moon(To the moon)

(V2)Love is stuck on me

Like a hot summer’s dayCraving excitement

I’ll go all the wayTake away my sadnessAn unwelcome guest

Icarus, fly me to the moon(To the moon)

(V3)You’ve exposed my scars

I recycle my dreamsI’m on a wooden horseAll I hear are screams

You say, “let’s be friends”Now we’ve reached the endIcarus, fly me to the moon

(To the moon)

(Bridge)There’s a dresser full of notes

In this fleabag hotelIt’s just my first stopOn the road to hell

Icarus, fly me to the moon

- instrumental –

Icarus, fly me to the moon(To the moon)

Icarus, fly me to the moon

What Do You See(V1)

I felt her eyes staring through meShe was an angel who used to believe

From a corner of a darkened roomThe piano man plays a sad, sad tune

An empty bar stool at her sideCherry lips tainted with wine

Is there a story to be toldIs there a love frozen in the cold

(lift)I thought all angels were devineThey could see inside your mind

How’d this angel get so blind

(Chorus)Oh angel, what do you see

When a heart’s been broken in threeThere’s no reflection staring back

A pale face of emptiness … a concrete pastOh angel, what do you see

(v2)Was it me she was crying for

How many times did she knock on my doorDid she come to show me the wayTomorrow will be a brighter day

(Chorus)

(V3)The reflection in her golden eyes

Her weakened smile ate at my insidesI slowly walked into her light

She held me close all through the night

There’s an angel watching over meShe’s mending my heart so I can seeTomorrow I’ll take my very first step

Until then, love is heaven sent

(Chorus)

Oh angel, what do you seeOh angel, what do you see

My Alien Side (V1)

Woke up this morning what did I seeThe sun was shining smiling at me

I took my head untied it from the bedI took the rope tied it to my hopeGot in my car headed to the stars

Cause no Heaven on Earth can feel Like the Mars I feel when I’m with youNo Heaven on Earth can feel like I do

(Chorus)Alien rhythmAlien tides

Feel me quiverFrom my alien side

Take my handDo the alien danceI have you trappedIn my alien trance

(V2)Oh Baby, I feel like Mars

A funk Daddy with an alien heartOne that beats to the rhythm of blues

The other beats when I with youJust to be near you keeps me alive

This alien heart is changing the tidesAnd when we wash up on this forbidden shore

Our love will last for ever more

(Chorus x 2)Alien rhythmAlien tides

Feel me quiverFrom my alien side

Take my handDo the alien danceI have you trappedIn my alien trance

Tonight (Everything Changes)

(V1)I’ve paid my dues

Tonight will be like no other nightThe wine is chilled

I can feel you standing close to me

(Chorus)Tonight

Everything changesTonight

We’ll be together for all timeFor we are more..more than a lifetime

We ARE…forever entwined

(V2)I think of you

And every smile leaves me breathlessI taste your kiss

I’m on a flight through the sky

(Chorus)Tonight

Everything changesTonight

We’ll be together for all timeFor we are more..more than a lifetime

We ARE…forever entwined

(Bridge)Please forgive me if I’ve had so many doubts

I didn’t know what true love was all aboutLife seemed so simpleI never wondered whyLife seemed so simple

Until I saw the twinkle in your eye

 -Short solo -

Love cannot lastUntil we look into the past

And remember ... hearts can break like glass

(Outro)Tonight

Everything changesTonight

We’ll be together forever and a dayTonight

Tonight everything changes

(V1)Her name is Miss-Demeanor

A dark-haired senoritaWhen I saw her eyes

Shining wildI knew I had to meet her

With my heart in tow

There’s a Party Goin’ On

(V1)There’s a party going on, going on…going on

There’s a party going onAt the house next door

I knock on the doorAnd let myself in

There’s a party going on…Going on

At the end of the hallI see a girl

She’s so hotIt makes my heart curl

I have to thinkOh, what should I do

Cause I’m a man who don’t like to loseTo a girl with a straight “A” caboose

(Chorus x 2)There’s a party going on, going on…going on

There’s a party going on…going on

(V2)I wave at her

As if she can seeShe’s the one

Who can lick my dreamsI had to know

If she felt the sameCause my heart was boiling

Playin’ this game

I take a chanceWiggle through the crowd

But my every thoughtIs being drownedSo I grab a drink

As if that would helpMe to understand

What she was all about

(Chorus x 2)

(V3)Next thing I knew

She had disappearedGuess she didn’t like

My day-old beardSo I left this joint

Headed down the streetCause there’s a party going on…going on

(Chorus)

A Bureaucrat (V1)

Thought I was the one To win the world

Stand on Mount EverestAnd wave to the girls

Walk the streetWith a fat pay chequeBuy anything I wantRule with my dick

(V2)I went to schoolknew everythingBought a crown

So I could be kingLearned a bit of this

And a bit of thatBut I never learnedTo be a bureaucrat

(Chorus)A bureaucrat

That’s what I should beFur line my pocketsWith each degreeStand on the topOf the tallest hillBe the first in lineTo get those pills

(V3)But I’m falling hard

So off trackStabbed so many times

I’m wearing blackWhere can I find

That righteous pathSo I can have

The last of the laughs

(Chorus)

(Outro)A bureaucrat

That’s what I should beThe fattest of the catsWith my own marqueeIt would have an arrowThat points straight up

Just to confuseWhen I’m out to lunch

Out to lunch .... out to lunchI'm a bureaucrat, I'm out to lunch

Just Say Please (V1)I put a penny

In my worn shoesKnocked on woodIt’s what I gotta do

I’m in the sandBuried to my knees

How many timesDo I gotta say please

(Chorus)Say please for thisSay please for thatPlease to the crazy

Cat in the hatCan’t you hear me counting down to three

I need your love …just say please

(V2)Just one time

It’s all you gotta doAnd I’ll be yours

Through and throughInside, outside

And upside downEvery piece of me

Will be wearing a crown

(Chorus)Say please for thisSay please for thatPlease to the crazy

Cat in the hatCan’t you hear me counting down to three

I need your love …just say please

Promise you nothing will go wrongAnd when that hairy monster raises HellHe’ll be trapped inside our lover’s spell

I need your love …just say please

Baby I’ll Change (V1)

A thousand miles I keep playin’ this same old gameEverywhere I look…people are all the same

There’s a king sitting in his golden chairWhen he asks for a rose, a thorn is always waiting there

(Chorus)I’ll change for you

But will I ever really changeLove turns sideways

Each time I see a shade of greenI’ll change for you

You know I’d do anythingAt least in my heart

It’s where the love birds singI’ll change …. B-a-b-y I’ll change

(V2)I’ve climbed mountains on a desperate search for you

I’ve watched every sky..turn from gray to blueEvery petal I pluck tells me you’re the one

I’m wishing miracles every time there’s a setting sun

(Bridge)Oh, people never change

So why do I expect so muchLove washes down the drain

Whenever there’s a chance of rainPeople never see

Life has so much to giveOne heart ache

They forget what it’s like to live

(Chorus)I’ll change for you

But will I ever really changeLove turns sideways

Each time I see a shade of greenI’ll change for you

You know I’d do anythingAt least in my heart

It’s where the love birds sing

I’ll changeI’ll change

Baby I’ll change for youYeah, just for you

Just for you I'll change

Julia (V1)

Julia says give me a man With a treasured heart He’s dug from the sand

A giver of dreams A lover of life

A straight shooter Sharp as a knife

(Chorus)Julia says oh

I want what I want, ohNot to get lost

In the ocean below, ohWill Julia get what Julia wants

True love that’s not tied in knots, oh

(V2)Julia says she’ll find Mr. Right

To quench her fever On a hot-blooded night

Walking the path Where wild flowers grow

Plucking daisies Where the rivers flow

(Chorus)Julia says, oh

I want what I want, ohNot to get lost

In the ocean below, ohWill Julia get what Julia wants

True love that’s not tied in knots, oh

(Bridge - hahaha - sorry guys)But Julia knows when men make their beds

They become walking zombies From the land of the dead Something in their brain

Something so strangeThat even mother nature

Can't explain

(Chorus)Julia says, oh

I want what I want, ohNot to get lost

In the ocean below, ohWill Julia get what Julia wants

True love that’s not tied in knots, oh

Julia says…Julia saysJulia says…oh, Julia says

Only Santiago (V1)

It was just another nightA night without a lullabye

When you walked into my lifeOh Santiago in my dreamsI fell in love along the sea

It's where... I was meant to be

(Chorus)Oh Santiago

Take me backClimb the cliffs of the past

Take me beyond my winter stormTake me gently in your arms

Oh SantiagoI can see

It's where I was meant to be

(V2)Every day's another day

When you seem so far awayI'm begging for your gaze

Time is so motionlessLife so full of emptiness

My heart's become a mess

(Chorus)Oh Santiago

Take me backClimb the cliffs of the past

Take me beyond my winter stormTake me gently in your arms

Oh SantiagoI can see

It's where I was meant to be

(Bridge)When the morning skyOpens it's weary eyes

Only Santiago will hear my criesOnly Santiago will hear my cries

Take me backWhy did I say good-bye

Only Santiago hears me cry

The King of Hearts (V1)

You tried to blame mePut our love to shameRipped open paradise

Where all the fools play

(V2)You tried to change meInto something I’m notSpun your spider’s web

And somehow I got caught

(Chorus)If I were a King

I’d be the King of HeartsNo one and nothing

Could tear my love apartIf I were a King

Oh … I’d be the King of Hearts

(V3)I’d live in my counting house

Counting out my dimesI’d be rich beyond belief

Each and every time

(V4)Love would rule the worldThere’d be no more lies

No more blackbirdsTo peck out my eyes

(Chorus)If I were a King

I’d be the King of HeartsNo one and nothing

Could tear my love apartIf I were a King

Oh … I’d be the King of Hearts

(Bridge)When my Queen is in the kitchen

I’d be counting out my moneyEvery one of her sweet kissesWould be the taste of honey

(Outro)If I were the King of hearts

Rich beyond beliefRich beyond belief

I’d be the King of HeartsOh, Awwwwww….I’d be rich beyond belief

I Can’t Believe (V1)

I can’t believe that you walked awayNever said good-bye

Now my heart is dying

I can’t believe you left me this wayI’m all alone

Don’t know which way to go

(Chorus)Every feeling

I ever had for youIs overflowing

How could you not knowMy heart is shattered

You’ve filled it with stoneNow I’m sinkingCold and alone

A shattered messFilled with emptiness

I can’t believe…I never saw the end

(V2)You played the game, thought I was the one

And every nightWas sweetness and delight

You played the game, you put me to shameClimbed into my bed

All the things you said

(Bridge)We belonged

We’ll be together foreverHolding me close

Telling me nothings wrongWe belonged

Our two hearts were always oneClinging to hope

You had me tied to a rope

(Chorus)

(Outro)I can’t believe

Love's suppose to last a lifetimeI can’t believe

You’d let my heart bleedI can’t believe

I just can’t believe

Suzy Q (V1)

He was a lone star StrangerRiding high – a son of a gun

On his one-eyed horse he went into battleCause he knew..there’s nowhere he could run

(Prechorus)He knew that love was taintedEverything you say's not true

Love comes…once in a life timeBut he can't live without you

(Chorus)Oh Suzy QOh Suzy Q

What did you do..what did you doOh Suzy QOh Suzy Q

That lone man is a needing you

(V2)He grabbed his spurs and shacklesThought himself king of the braveHeading directly into the sunset

Would it be love or would it be his grave

(Chorus)Oh Suzy QOh Suzy Q

What did you do..what did you doOh Suzy QOh Suzy Q

That lone man is a needing you

(Bridge)He was prepared to get on his knees

Lasoo the moon just for youHe would do just about anything

If you would be his Suzy Q

(Prechorus)He knew that love was taintedEverything you say's not true

Love comes…once in a life timeHe can't live without you

(Chorus)Oh Suzy QOh Suzy Q

What did you do..what did you doOh Suzy QOh Suzy Q

I’ll Just Do A Dance (V1)

I’m feeling foolishI feel like a clown

I’m the King of loveMy heads in the clouds

(V2)I shuffle the cards

The Jokers laugh at meFor the Queen of my heart’s

Stolen my dignity

(Chorus)Oh, it’s hard to win

When you’ve got half a deckStacked against you

And you’re trapped in a wreckBut I’ll take my chanceBuild a tower to the sun

When my cards are downI’ll just do a dance

(V3)If you take me downIf you win the gameWill you be a star

Strutting the walk of fame

(V4)Stand and take a bowSign your autographsWill you get an encore

On my behalf

(Chorus)

(Bridge)Somehow it seems

That it’s good to dreamIt’s good to take a walk

When it’s just you and meIt’s good to have youWrapped in my arms

Cause I need you to seeYou’re the one I breathe

(Chorus x 2)

Mr. Lonely (V1)

I’m walking this heartbreak roadIt’s long and winding I’ve been told

I’ve got my worn out pack Cause…I know I won’t be back

(V2)I’m playin’ my ‘ol guitar

Wandering beneath the stars When I knock on those pearly gates

Will the angels heal my scars

(Chorus)They call me Mr. LonelyMr. Lonely without youThey call me Mr. Lonely

Lonely, lonely what can I do

(V3)It’s dark on this road ahead

Cause there’s nothing more to be said I read all your love notes

I read them every night in bed

(Bridge)Over and over, baby

I spend my time thinking of youOver and over, baby

That’s all I ever wanna do

solo

(V4)If I ever get the chance

I’ll remember each and every danceEvr’y kiss, evr’y caress

Why did our love end in a mess

(Chorus x 2)They call me Mr. LonelyMr. Lonely without youThey call me Mr. Lonely

Lonely, lonely what can I do

Knock On Your Door(V1)

I walk up these old dusty stepsExpecting you to be mine

I thought you would run into my armsLike you’ve done so many times

(Chorus)So I knock on your door

I stand waiting thereThe minutes they just creep by

My heart and my smileBegin to fade

As I remember our last good-bye

(Lift)All of our forget-me-nots

All our nights tied up in knotsAll the times we shared our heartsSaying love would never fall apart

(V2)How long should I stand all alone

Expecting you to be thereTo ease all the aches in my bones

To answer all of my prayers

(Chorus)

(Lift)All of our forget-me-nots

All our nights tied up in knotsAll the times we shared our heartsSaying love would never fall apart

(Bridge)Was it a lie

Come back to meOpen your armsAnd set me free

I’ll tell you each and every dayMy love for you has never strayed

I’ll tell you each and every dayLove grows stronger, I can’t stay away

(Chorus x 2)

I’m NoFall Guy (V1)

It was a smoky barIt was an afternoon

You were sitting thereOn an old bar stool

I could see the rainSwimming in your heart

But when lightning strikesWhere does a man start

Your eyes were flashingLike two fireflies

Your ruby red lipsWere a wanting mine

(Chorus)But I’m no fall guyIt’s not what I do

But I’m head over heelsIn love with youI’m no fall guy

I’m not the man in blackIf I climb your stairs

There’s no going back

(V2)I’d become the devil

I’d beg for moreWith my half-baked plans

Knocking at your door

I’d spend all my timeStaring into your eyesGive me love any dayGive me all of your lies

(Bridge)Everything changes

Everything’s re-arrangedIt only takes a minute

And life’s not the sameTake a chance

Take a sideways glanceAnd you’re doing the do

Doing the danceAnother lover’s fool

Wearing worn out pants

(Chorus)

I Cried a Puddle(Intro)

Oh, what was I feelingWhen the tears came tumbling downStanding on the rooftop of my world

Looking down

(Chorus)I cried a puddle filled it with a thousand tears

A thousand emotions, one thousand fearsTurn me around enter if you dare

Undo the ropes untie me to a chairAnd cry me a puddle, a puddle of tears

(V1)Thought there was you and me

With a perfect destinyBut when the river ran dry

I cried…oh, how I cried

(Chorus)I cried a puddle filled it with a thousand tears

A thousand emotions, one thousand fearsTurn me around enter if you dare

Undo the ropes untie me to a chairA cry me a puddle, a puddle of tears

(V2)And the days went by

Flooding all of my sensesHow could I possibly tryTo mend broken fences

(V3)I got you under my skin

Days and nights are wearing thinI tried to scratch, tried to shout

You’re stuck inside; there’s no way out

(Bridge)I’ve had enoughIt’s time to leave

When love’s emptyMy heart bleeds

I’ll walk on out and lose myselfCause in the end what’s life on a shelf

(Chorus)I cried a puddle filled it with a thousand tears

A thousand emotions, one thousand fearsTurn me around enter if you dare

Undo the ropes untie me to a chairAnd cry me a puddle, a puddle of tears

Lost Paradise(Intro)

The eyes of a thousand faces stare at meWhispering tales of a sailor at sea

Trapped in the mist, drownin’ in fateNo one can save him…it’s too late

(V1)Death stole his warmth

Brought him to his kneesHis weary lost soulCan’t even breathe

(V2)Her long white fingers

Had a hold of himGrabbed him by the handsOn a journey through sin

(Chorus)Ev’ry midnight

Ev’ry shattered dawnOn ev’ry seashore

Forever moreI hear a lark in the tree of lifeLaughing at his lost paradise

(Laughing at his lost paradise)

(V3)Wrapped her arms round him

Like a wretched lover canStole away his future

Now he’s been damned

(V4)To walk the misty waters

Calling out the namesOf long forgotten lovers

In a forgotten game

(Chorus)

(Bridge)One moment of precious timeOne true love, a twist of limeOne sip from an empty glassHow long does a memory last

(Chorus)

Sugar Rush Me (V1)

Sugar rush me babyGive me the time

It’s four in the morningI haven’t got a dime

Does it really matterCause love’s a crimeIt’s going nowhereMaybe that’s fine

(Chorus)Sugar rush me

Can’t get enough of meSugar rush meLiving on timeSugar rush me

Can’t get enough of meIt’s four in the morning

I’m just scraping by

(Bridge)My jeans are tornMy hearts forlornMy love for you

Has turned to scornYou take me when you want me

You walk out the doorNow I’m runnin’ corridors

On a cold, cold…cold, cold floor

(V2)I know you care

I see it in your eyesYou’ll be back for more

Cause I’m the sugar on your pie 

I’m everything you wantI’m everything you needYou can’t get rid of me

I’m like a bad weed

(Chorus)

I know you careI see it in your eyes

You’ll be back for moreCause I’m sweet as pie

Sugar rush meI’m living on time

Until Tomorrow Give me the midnight

Give me a stormGive me a silver platter

Covered in worms

Chase me through the nightWith the point of a swordLeave no stone unturnedJust give me your word

Give me anythingI’ll take what you’ve got

Give me your loveI’ll give you anything you want

(Chorus)I want the moon

A hot summer’s nightI want the stars

In the sky to burn brightI want the heavens

I want ev’ry godPull me along

I’ll bark like a dog

… until tomorrow…… until tomorrow…… until tomorrow…

I want the sunsetTo be crimson red

I want our loveEntwined in bedI want the roses

To lose their thornsI want your kiss

I want to be reborn

(V2)When the sun rises

And the sky lightens upYou open your eyesAnd I’ve had enough

Cause the night is doneAnd I’ve had my fill

It’s time for JackTo head back up the hill

... until tomorrow... until tomorrow…until tomorrow

(Chorus)

(Outro)Cause the night is done

And I’ve had my fillIt’s time for Jack

To head back up the hill

... until tomorrow... until tomorrow…I can't wait until tomorrow

I Wait For You (V1)

The dancing flames that burn my skinHave left a deathly trail of sin

My hopeful eyes that once shinedHave faded from your lover’s mind

And now I walk this broken trailLooking for a love…I know has failed

(Chorus)I wait for you (I wait for you)

Can you not seeMy heart is trapped without a key

I wait for you (I wait for you)The blind is down

Every curtain wears a frownAnd I still think of yesterday

Until then…I’ll wait for you again

(V2)You never cared how I feelBefore the gods I will kneel

And tell them all the pain insideWhy I continued on this ride

Even when my flesh was goneI’d be waiting to share the misty dawn

(Chorus)I wait for you (I wait for you)

Can you not seeMy heart is trapped without a key

I wait for you (I wait for you)The blind is down

Every curtain wears a frownAnd I still think of yesterday

Until then…I’ll wait for you again

(Bridge)Second to none I’ve becomeWith a soul that’s left undone

I’ll find a new place of directionA new place of resurrection

Where I can stand on my two feet...all alone

(Outro)I can’t wait don’t you see

My heart is trapped without a keyI can’t wait don’t you see

For there’s nothing left of you and meI wait for youI wait for you

I can no longer wait for you

Hot Hot Hot (V1)

What is the meanining.... Of this long winding road

What is this feeling... Another story grown old

I've hit the trail... One too many times I'm living my life... Reading road signs

(Chorus)Give me your love Give me your kiss

Give me one moment And you won't resist

Be the one You're what I want

If I lived in Hell I couldn't be as "hot hot hot"

(V2)One way, no turn

I've crossed the tracks A hairpin curve

And there's no goin' back Why are you stealing...

the heart from my sleeve I'm twisting and turning...

Cause I wanna believe

(Chorus)

(Outro)I got everything

that you could want I'm walking the fine line

What is the cost

(Chorus)Give me your love Give me your kiss

Give me one moment and you won't resist

Be the one You're what I want

If I lived in Hell I couldn't be as "hot hot hot"

Twitter My World(V1)

It was a night Like I’ve never seen

There was girl You must believe

She had it all Everything I want

She could turn a man Into a walking dog

(V2) I'd follow her around Everywhere she goes

I’d do anything To get under her clothes

She gives me tidbits To know I’m the one

And I thank her For all of the fun

(Chorus) Everybody says I'm a lucky man

Everybody says it’s good to be damned She's the one; she's the girl

She's the babe who can twitter my world

(V3) I wag my tail

She strokes my head Climbs aboard the train

And into my bed We pull back the sheets

And ride all night When the whistle blows She's my angel of delight

(V4) Then she yanks my leash

Pulls me along But I'm ready for the end

Why’d it take so long My ball and chain

Is weighing me down But I'm lost in her heart And I’ll never be found

(Chorus)

Beyond The Veil (V1)

I live in a world where love’s been forgotThe icy taste of death is the lesson taught

The angels of misery play their violinsTaunting midnight shadows to the tune of lonesome men

(V2)In my hall of lies the future and the past

Have tied themselves in knots to tell me nothing lastsLove becomes a whisper running through my teethAcross the dunes of pain chasing the demon beast

(Chorus)Beyond the veil

Can anybody hearI’m calling your name

But I’m trapped inside this game

(V3)In just a moment everything has changed

One slap across the face everything's re-arrangedAnd I am a stranger drifting on an empty plain

T'wards the desert sunset to burn into the flame

(V4)The evil within has blackened my heartLeft paradise empty for Hell is my start

The world is laughing like flies on the wallEating through my lies as I crumble and fall

(Chorus)

(V5)I played into ecstasy became unchained

The hand that rocked the cradle has turned into rageThe light in the tunnel has begun to fade

I awake to madness without my name

(V6/bridge)Beyond the veil

I walk this empty landThe sword on my pillow

Has cut through my handThe angels of midnight

Who called me by my nameKnew of my weakness

I played into their game

Beyond the veilCan anybody hearCan anybody hear

I Learned The Hard Way

(V1)Oh, she was a beauty

Her eyes were teardrops in a seaHer long shades of hair

Flowed gently on the breezeShe was not any goddess

She was AphroditeThe call of a skylark

Whisp’ring love as she speaks

(Chorus)So, I packed my suitcase

I would never give inCause I learned the hard wayLove’s not something to win

I learned the hard wayWe could never be friends

(V2)She came one winter

The color of death on her skinHer long white fingers

Carried the touch of her sinShe was coming for meAlong a lonesome road

She’d be knocking at my doorOr so the rumor's been told

(Chorus)

(Bridge)I’m still runningThinking of her

She stole a piece of my heartBefore I got in my carOh...I’m still runningWith her on my mind

She stole a piece of my heartSo I'm only half blind

(Chorus)

Oh, I learned the hard waySometimes love must end

One Way, Wrong Way(V1)

I’m a one way, wrong way funk monkeyWalking the street

I don’t care that I got no beatI’m living love with two hands tied

I’m taking my lifeOne day, one stride

(V2)I’m a one way, wrong way funk monkey

Got what I gotI work hard just to stay on topI pay my dues; I hate to lose

I don’t wanna  beNo Mister Blues

(Chorus)I’ve got a one way, wrong way

Ticket to loveI’m a funk monkey in a yellow sub

I have my baby by my sideI’m taking my life one day at a time

(V3)I’m a one way, wrong way funk monkey

Looking for someMy backstabbing baby’s name is loveShe captured my heart and my soul

I’m stuck to a wallDon’t know where to go

(Chorus)I’ve got a one way, wrong way

Ticket to loveI’m a funk monkey in a yellow sub

I have my baby by my sideI’m taking life one day at a time

(V4)I’m a one way, wrong way funk monkey

Tryin’ to winI’m in trouble with Mrs. Sin

I know love changes everythingBut I didn’t know

It would cost me wings

(Outro)I’ve got a one way, wrong way

Ticket to loveI’ve got a one way, wrong way

Ticket to loveI’ve got a one way, wrong way

Ticket to love

Shark on Water (Intro/chorus)He’s a shark on water

But he’s walking on landCrawled from the deep end

Of no man’s land

(V1)He calls himself midnight’s fool

In an ocean of fishes he can scuba tooEv’ry sea horse that floats his way

Will take him for a ride then ask for pay

(V2)He climbs in his gold-plated motorboat

With a dead ‘ol engine so he has to floatGrabs a wooden paddle to get away

He’s had a de ja vue like it was yesterday

(Chorus)He’s a shark on water

But he’s walking on landCrawled from the deep end

Of no man’s land Crawled from the deep end

Without a plan

(V3)He learned to swim a long time ago

When that damn octopus wouldn’t let him goShe had eight arms and the devil’s charm

So he dove down under before he was harmed

(V4)He hadn’t been seen for a long, long time

But the going was tough he was losing his mindFor every man needs some love to get through When you think its safe you sink into the blue

(Chorus x2)He’s a shark on water

But he’s walking on landCrawled from the deep end

Of no man’s landCrawled from the deep end

Without a plan

Ludwig Took The Train (V1)

Ludwig took the trainTo the far side of the sunDown the old back road

Past the Blue Cactus saloonHe was drinkin’ hard

Forgettin’ his achey heartFor he’d been burnedWay too many timesAnd he didn’t learn

That he’d do it again and again

(V2)Ludwig took the train

To the far side of the sunPast old Millar’s place

The man with the loaded gunAnd his lovely daughter

Doing things she not outtaCause she drove him to drink

Thinking he’s gonna getHimself some good times

And he’d try it, oh, again and again

(V3)Ludwig took the train

To the far side of the sunHe was runnin’ scaredWind blowin’ his hair

With a beat up ol’ suitcaseAnd  messed up mem’ries

Thought he’d climb the stairsThat weren’t even there

Rid himself of denied loveOn mem’ry lane in this old ghost of a town

Ludwig took the trainTo the far side of the sun

Ludwig took the trainTo the far side of the sun

Ressurect Me(V1)

Running down hell’s highwayMaking a counterstrikeI’ve just had a headshotIn this tournament of life

I need to be consoledI can’t live with this strife

(Chorus)How can this be the end

When the game has just begunResurrect me, we’ll start again

Resurrect me, we’ll start as friends

(V2)Morphing from my half-life

I'm playin' in real-timeSearching for the enemy

Who’s stolen this girl of mineIt’s time to inflict some damage

Get her back on my side

(Chorus)How can this be the end

When the game has just begunResurrect me, we’ll start again

Resurrect me, we’ll start as friends

(V3)Is he an ally or the enemy

This multi-player manScoping out my monstersGaining the upper hand

Time to speak some GreekImplement my plan

(Bridge)This brain candy

Has glutamized my soulI see polygons and 3D trolls

I must grab a holdBefore I lose my control(s)

(Chorus)How can this be the end

When the game has just begunResurrect me, we’ll start again

Resurrect me, we’ll start as friends

I’m Wasted, You’re Tasteless

(V1)I’m sad to say

You ruined my dayAnd now I’m wasted…

You’re tasteless…Like sand that runsBetween my teeth

I have no reason to believeThat you and meAre meant to be

And everything that I desireWill burn like feathers in a fire

- Instrumental -

(V2)You cast a spellOne night in hell

And now I’m wasted…You’re tasteless…

Like beans that fizzleTo a crisp

And then you eat themWith some dip

Cause you have nothingBut an empty plastic bowl

And a very hungry soul

(Bridge)There’s nothing in this make-out world

That you could ever do To make me want somebody more

Than the way that I want you

I’m wasted…You’re tasteless

(Outro)The two of  us

We have no trustBut what we haveIs more than lustCause I have youAnd you have me

And that is all that’s meant to beYeah, that is all that's meant to be

I’m wasted…You’re tasteless

I'm wasted...You're tasteless

(V2)Searching for the truth

Willing to make amends So I begin a journey

Not knowing… how it will end

So I carry onThrough this ancient fantasy

Beyond the skies of dawnFace the greatest dangers

Man has ever seenJust to bring you home

To be my queenCause you’re irresistible

When the curtain’s drawnI’ll be standing beside you

On the bridge of a new dawn

(Chorus)You’re so irresistible

So I carry onThrough this ancient fantasy

Beyond the skies of dawnFace the greatest dangers

Man has ever seenJust to bring you home

To be my queenCause you’re irresistible

And I’m smiling on the stageKnowing that

The world is turningJust for you and me

City of The Kings(V1)

In the city of the kingsYou wear your crown of thorns

Hands in your pocketsYour story’s getting old

(V2)David slew Goliath

But you never believedOne day the weak will rule

With a silver key

(Chorus)What goes around...comes around again

All the blood that spillsBelongs to other menIn the city of the kings

Every last dropThe beginning of your end

(V3)When the meek appear as knights

In your castle on the cloudsThey’ll sit at your round tableYou’ll see them in the crowds

(V4)It’s time to re-evaluate

The meaning of your lifeOr be trapped in the dungeon

Wishing you had a knife

(Chorus)What goes around...comes around again

All the blood that spillsBelongs to other menIn the city of the kings

Every last dropThe beginning of your end

(Bridge)The wolf in lambs clothing

With his slingshot and stonesHe'll have you for lunch

And you won't even know

(Outro)What goes around...comes around again

Every last dropThe beginning of your end

In the city of the kingsWhen will it ever end

Jack Black is Back (V1)

It didn’t come easyBut Jack is back

(Chorus)Ohhhh, he’s backJack Black is back

Like a plague ridden ratChasing the cat

Ohhhh…Oh Jack Black is back

From your highs to your lowsWhen you’re in a pinch

You gotta scratch quicklyWhen you’ve got an itch

In his fancy carTake everything you got

You won’t get far

Before you know itYou’ve rolled the diceNow you’re penniless

In Paradise

And he’s howling at the moonThe waters of midnight

Are playing his tuneAnd you’ve been capsized

Swimming aloneThere’s no one to bring you home

Jack Black is backHe's bad....and he's back

Everywhere(V1)

The first time we metI was so shy

I could barely speakBut I had to try

Every word I saidCame out all wrongI was talking circles

And then you were gone

(PreChorus)   Everywhere I turn   Everywhere I go

   Everywhere I look   I hear your hello

(Chorus)I was so into you

Were you so into meYou've unlocked my heart With your everywhere key

(V2)I can't concentrate

Are you thinking of meI'm thinking of you

You're in my daydreams

When I'm sitting aloneRunning down the hallYou give me butterflies

When I see you at the mall

(PreChorus)

(Chorus)

(Bridge)Do I dare...call you on the phone

Text message and leave you my codeGive me a moment, I need to exhaleMaybe I'll send you a friendly e-mail

(PreChorus)   

(Chorus)

You’re so everywhereSo everywhere

So every, everywhere

Roads That Lead to Zarzora

(V1)An invisible border

Stuck between two worldsWhen the sun sets at night

It opens the underworldWandering shadowsKing of desert storms

Exiled from the maddening truthI'm the wandering fool

(V2)All men grow frail

Amongst earthly delightsSun-sick days of longingCrimson moon at nightDrinking from teardrops

Love mocks the mind of manEvery step I take

I sink deeper into sand

(Chorus)Full of men and legendsA land of sand and stoneFull of winds that ravageScoured by the storms

The greatest riches you have ever known

All roads that lead to ZarzoraHave been closed

(V3)A hundred burdensPrince of arroganceI am Dionysus lost

In a game of chanceWhen death stares down

Chewing away my lifeI won’t go quietly

Into the night

(V4)Catch me a mermaid

In a storm without rainMy heart’s a prisoner

No beacon guides my wayIn this sea of oblivionNo fire flies at night

Chilled from the moon’s frostThere’s no oasis in sight

(Chorus) Full of men and legendsA land of sand and stoneFull of winds that ravageScoured by the storms

The greatest riches you have ever known

All roads that lead to ZarzoraHave been closed

(Bridge)Worldy treasures mean

nothingWhen the birds of prey

descendTrapped in the great abyssWithout the sweetest kiss

(Outro)The greatest riches you have

ever knownAll roads that lead to Zarzora

Have been closedAll roads that lead to Zarzora

Have been closed

The Old Hag of Midnite (V1)

Legend says a creatureInhabits every room

A mystical beingFrom another worldShe’ll pin you down

When you’re fast asleepParalyze your body

Put tingles in your feet

(Chorus)Don’t wake me up

In my deepest of dreamsFor I’ll become sleep paralyzed

I fear the demon’s screamI fear…I fear the demons scream

(V2)The Old Hag of midnight

Wanders in my headTrapped in two dimensionsBetween REM and my bed

She has me howlingFalling from my room

This faceless demon creatureIs a misty shade of blue

(Chorus)Don’t wake me up

In my deepest of dreamsFor I’ll become sleep paralyzed

I fear the demon’s screamI fear…I fear the demons scream

(Bridge)You won’t know where to run

Cause you can’t run at allYou're completely paralyzed

There’s no running down the hallThere’s no escaping AT ALL….hahahahahhah

From The Old Hag of Mignight

(Chorus)Don’t wake me up

In my deepest of dreamsFor I’ll become sleep paralyzed

I fear the demon’s screamI fear…I fear the demons scream

The Old Hag of Mignight….fades

It’s a Poptart Day (Intro/Chorus) On the road to oblivion

Not really livin’ Sitting in a hotel room

It’s a Poptart day

(V1) Drownin’ in sorrow And bags of Doritos

The windows are wide I’m swatting mosquitos

On Satellite TVWatching late night adsThere’s nothing worse

Than an itch I cant’ scratch

(Chorus) On the road to oblivion

Not really livin’ Sitting in a hotel room

It’s a Poptart day

(V2) I just wanna lie here Since you went away

There’s no one around To uncloud my day

I need you in the sack Playing Martian Attack

On my wii station And massaging my back

(Chorus)

(Bridge) In the good ‘ol days You were my dear In separate glasses

We’d be chugga lugging beer

Can’t live without you Haven’t really tried 

‘Cause I need someone to make me Some Poptarts on the side

(Chorus) On the road to oblivion

Not really livin’ Sittin’ in a hotel room

It’s a Poptart day

The Albatross(V1)

Water, water everywhereBut he can’t think straight

Delirious with thirstThere’s nothing to drink

(Chorus)Rotting and thrashing

Slimy creatures of the seaSizzling with strange fires

The Ancient Mariner shall bleedFor breaking the rules

Killing an albatross like me

(V2)Certain and uncertaintyBetween day and night

The mundane and divineBetween black and white

(V3)On the edge between two realms

Beyond reason and timePain and pleasure are the same

In the icy world of Rime

(Chorus)Rotting and thrashing

Slimy creatures of the seaSizzling with strange fires

The Ancient Mariner shall bleedFor breaking the rules

Killing an albatross like me

(Outro)Terrifying and beautiful

Transported there by forceSentenced to life in death

What could be worse

Your Rebel Lips(V1)

I’m a primordial warriorClimbing out from loves womb

Ishtar watches over meGoddess of doom and gloom

(V2)I’ve fallen from Mount Olympus

I don’t understand your liesMy ego shield should protect me

From your universal alibi

(Chorus)Your rebel lips

Have tarnished my innocenceKissed away another dayAs I kneel down to obey

Your rebel lipsHave tarnished my innocence

(Your rebel lipsHave tarnished my innocence)

(V3)I was just another scapegoat

Weighed down by your ball and chainFor your eager amusement

Until love began to fade

(V4)I need a third realm in which to live

Crossing the bridge of realityWhere I can wear my crown of thorns

In my personal purgatory

(Your rebel lipsHave tarnished my innocence)

(Bridge)You laugh at meIn my solitude

But I’ll reign immortalNow that I’m not with you

(Outro)Your rebel lips

Your rebel lips…(your rebel lips)Have tarnished my innocence

The Mad Hatter (V1)

One step into insanityFrom the other side of the mirror

Will you ever get safely homeFrom the other side of your fear

(V2)Alice, what were you thinking

Playing with the Queen of HeartsYou're a tea tray in the skyShe's stealing all your tarts

(Chorus)Oh, the mad, mad hatterWalks amongst the sane

In a world that’s been uglifiedIt’s better to be insane

Oh, the mad, mad hatterLooking for the smiley catplayin' his invisible games

Will you ever get back

(V3)It doesn’t matter which way you go

All the doors are lockedWith no key to the garden

Time runs backwards on your clock

(V4)Every red poker will burn

If you hold it too longWhen you're smaller than the kings

In your pool of tears you'll drown

(Chorus)

(Bridge)One day can change everythingIn a moment you'll come undoneThe world that was at your feet

Will leave you falling into the deep, deep, deepEverything that matters

Will belong to the maddest hatter

(Outro)Oh, the maddest hatterThe mad, mad hatter

Oh, the mad, mad hatterthe mad, mad, mad hatter
