Bottle Rocket
When I was younger I was o-so-tough
I swore I’d never fall I love
A game for fools a tragic mess
You proved me wrong I must confess
That I was arrogant I was blind
Never knew a lover that could be so kind
Yeah you're everything in my eyes
And everything you do just drives me wild
Like fireworks on the fourth of July
Explode my heart up in a clear blue sky
I don't know how and I really don't care
If I could figure it out I'd be a millionaire
If I could put what you got in a bottle
The way you live your life at full throttle
And how you always give back more than you take
Imagine all the money we could make
If would fall down you would pick me up
If I got thirsty you would fill my cup
If I got too drunk then baby you'd drive
Swear somehow you must have kept me alive
If I was fighting then you got my back
When they came after me you would attack
I swear sometimes I'd never make it back
If not for you yeah that's a fact
Like fireworks on the fourth of July
You explode my heart up in a clear blue sky
I don't know how and I really don't care
If I could figure it out I'd be a millionaire
If I could put what you got in a bottle
The way you live your life at full throttle
And how you always give back more than you take
Imagine all the money we could make
If I could pack up what you got and sell it
Doesn't matter what we'd call it or how we'd spell it
People they would line up round the block just to get it
The thrill of my little bottle rocket
Solo
If I got busted you would bail me out
Believe in my innocence beyond a doubt
But if I was guilty you would testify
And get me off with a little white lie
Like fireworks on the fourth of July
explode my heart up in a clear blue sky
I don't know how and I really don't care
If I could figure this out I'd be a millionaire
If I could put what you got in a bottle
The way you live your life at full throttle
And how you’re always giving back more than you take
Imagine all the money we could make
If I could pack up what you got and sell it
Doesn't matter what we'd call it or how we spell it
People they would line up round the block just to get it
The thrill of my little bottle rocket

Easier
Been dreaming my way back through time
Everything we've done and seen you know it's always been you and I
The joys we shared and tears we cried
Better with you by my side
If you count the years it seems so long
No matter what was thrown at us we kept on going strong
With laughter we kept love alive
Stood up to the tests of time
Everything we have we fought for
Everything we got it was hard to get
But loving you came natural
Just like breathing the air
I know nothing's ever been easier than loving you
And it's the only thing in this world I wanna do
Live and learn we laugh together
This love is forever true
We stand here looking back through time
On what we dreamed together manifest by you and I
The crazy lows and highest highs
Still got my partner in crime
Everything we got we fought for
Everything we got it was hard to get
But loving you came natural
Just like breathing the air
I know nothing's ever been easier than loving you
And it's the only thing in this world I wanna do
Live and learn we laugh together
This love is forever true
Forever from me to you
Now we’re living in this world we found
We covered many miles, yeah we sure covered a lot of ground
I got you right here safe and sound
Whatever you want I'm down
Everything we have we fought for
Everything we got it was hard to get
But loving you came natural
Just like breathing the air
I know nothing's ever been easier than loving you
And it's the only thing in this world I wanna do
Live and learn we laugh together
This love is forever true
Forever from me to you

Love Never Dies

Love Never Dies
Fever grows higher – Life force, so tired
No fear or regret - The horizon brings the last set
I know this is not the end I know
Love is a river it ebbs and it flows, bends and it bows
To the depths of your soul I want you all to know that with life
Love never dies
Feeling so tired - Heart race, expires
No tears in your eyes - So long, not good bye
I know this is not the end
I know, love is a fire it builds and it grows
The roots it exposed from the heat of your soul
I want you all to know that with life
Love never dies
Solo
Believer or denier – Life force, expires
No tears in your eyes - Last breath, please don't cry
I know this is not the end I know
Love is a river it ebbs and it flows, bends and it bows
To the depths of your soul I want you all to know that with life
Love never dies

Lost And Found
Been lost and waiting here seems like a million years
I’m counting every single second
The endless days and nights so many wrongs never made it right
Somehow invisible when I'm standing in plain sight
I wonder if everyone down here with me feels the same
Discarded like human garbage that was just thrown away
Lost and found
Didn't used to be this way lived a normal life in the light of day
A productive member of your so called society
People once respected me I had the love of a family
I was a warrior I kept this nation free
I wonder if everyone down here is seen as the same
Invisible no one can watch as we slip away
Lost and found
I wonder if everyone down here with me feels the same
Does no one notice as my whole life just slips away
Lost and found

Only One
Seemed to me all in love and war's fair
When up and out of nowhere I saw you across that room
You returned my stare like I wasn't even there
I said "hey, what the hell is this?"
I had no strength to resist and I was falling down
I was falling in, yeah I was falling in
And now I wait all day for night to come
So I can get you by my side and I know I'll feel alive
Through every up and down, in and out
You give me something I can dream about
I lie alone at night I scream and shout baby
You are the only one
Seems to me I was caught unprepared
Like any man I got scared
Cause there was something here that had never been there
Nothing ever compared
I said "hey, what the hell is this?"
Lost my will to resist and I was hypnotized
By your emerald eyes was a slave to your kiss
And now I wait all day for night to come
So I can get you by my side and I know I'll feel alive
Through every up and down, in and out
You give me something I can dream about
I lie alone at night I scream and shout baby
You are the only one
Solo
Seemed to me that all in love and war's fair
Then up and out of nowhere I saw you across that room
You returned my stare like I wasn't even there
I said "hey, what the hell is this?"
No way that I could resist and I was falling down
I was falling in, yes I was falling in
And I can’t wait all day for night to come
So I can get you by my side and I know I'll feel alive
Through every up and down, in and out
You give me something I can dream about
I lie alone at night I scream and shout baby
You are the only one
The only one

Down

I said I'd be yours forever and you know I will
I promised to never leave you and here I am still
Your love somehow it found me, chasing the darkest clouds away
Your light it now surrounds me, making the darkest nights
As bright as the day
When you let it shine down
Down, let it shine down
Your love it is contagious, I caught it the first time that we met
Amazing and outrageous, how much brighter could it get?
Your love is so astounding, pulling me in and shaking me out
Your light it now surrounds me, removing all shadows of a doubt
When you let it shine down
Down, let it shine down
I said I'd be yours forever and you know it's true, I swore I'd never leave
I dedicated my life to you
Your love somehow it found me, chasing the darkest clouds away
Your light it now surrounds me, making the darkest nights
As bright as the day
When you let it shine down
Down, let it shine down

Victim Of Life
Once upon a time you thought you had a friend
But now that things are getting harder
There's no one there on which you can depend
Victim of life
Your arms are chained by fate
What is it you like, you love, you hate
Once upon a time you thought you had it made
The way that you played
Now the days are growing darker
And no one listens when you fall down and pray
You try and pray it away
Victim of life
Your arms are chained by fate
What is it you like, you love, you hate
I cannot believe it why do you hesitate
Are you still with me or am I too late?
Victim of life
Your arms are chained by fate
What is it you like, you love, you hate
I cannot believe it why do you hesitate
Are you still with me or am I too late?

Into The Sun
You and me both had enough of the cold
This shoveling snow is getting so old now
We need a break, a little vaca
What could anyone say if we just slipped away now
‘Cmon with me, let's ditch this crazy rat race
Working like slaves it'll give us both a heart attack
Lets slip away, it'll all be here when we get back
I wanna know if you're willing to go
Where the pace is slow and the sun's always shining
Drinks in our hands, toes in the sand
I got a plan are you with me? let's go now
Let's get away escape this crazy rat race
Working like slaves it'll give us both a heart attack
‘Cmon with me it'll all be here when we get back
‘Cmon now
If we could just fly away into the sun it would be over and done
We'd be gone today
Into the sun we're gonna fly away
If we could just run away right into the sun
We would lock up the house and not tell anyone
We'd be gone today
Into the sun we're gonna fly away
C’mon with me escape this silly rat race
Working like slaves it'll give us both a heart attack
Let’s run away it'll all be here when we get back
‘Cmon now
If we could fly away into the sun it would be over and done
We'd be gone today
Into the sun we're gonna fly away
If we could just run away right into the sun
We would lock up the house and not tell anyone
We'd be gone today
Into the sun we're gonna fly away

Angel
Wait a minute baby, times are getting tight
Went down to the end of the tunnel and I didn't see the light
Just a minute, save me I think there’s something left to save
We been lost and we've been wandering and can't seem to find our way
And I worry no one listens when I fall to my knees and I pray
Or they would send me down an angel
And show me the way
Wait a minute baby the hours getting late
We twist and turn in the wind
Seems like we're always tempting fate
Just a minute, save me
I think there's something down here left to save
We've been lost ,we've been wandering
I think we might have been led astray
And I hope that someone listens when I fall to my knees and I pray
Send me down an angel
And show me the way
We've been wasting all our time
Listening to mad men, believing their lies
We don't have much time left to waste
Were ready to change, ready to fight, turn on the lights
Somebody show me the way
Wait a minute baby, times are getting tight
Went back to the end of the tunnel and I think I see the light
Someone came to save me before we all got blown away
We cut connections found new directions
Won’t believe in everything they say
And I know now someone listened when I fell to my knees and I pray
And they sent down an angel
To show me the way
We've been wasting all our time
Searching for reason - Unraveling rhymes
We don’t have no time left to waste
We’re ready to change, ready to fight, turn on the lights
Somebody show me the way

Wannit
Oh no, there's no easy way out
The jagged pill you swallowed left a bitter taste in your mouth
I see your chains will never unbind
A poison thought is spreading and it's
Taking over your mind
Can't wait for the morning to save you
There's no salvation in the light
Wannit, wannit dead or alive...wannit
Do what you gotta do to survive
Wannit, wannit dead or alive...wannit
You do what you gotta do to survive
Friction causing pain in the mind
Addiction is a poison pill that eats you up from inside
Waiting for everything to change
Fading every moment as your life just slips away
Don't wait for the morning to save you
This is not all in your mind
Wannit, wannit dead or alive...wannit
Do what you gotta do to survive
Wannit, wannit dead or alive...wannit
You do what you gotta do to survive
Solo
Don't wait for the morning to save you
There's no salvation in the light
Wannit, wannit dead or alive...wannit
Do what you gotta do to survive
Wannit, wannit dead or alive...wannit
You do what you gotta do to survive

Rock Star
I've been down this road before
The loser life's not for me and that's for sure
I need Lear jets, limousines
And everywhere I go you’ll just hear ladies scream
I made up my mind today
Gonna change everything, gonna change every way
Livin like a rock star
Drivin a red hot car
I've been down and I've been out
Fired, dumped, evicted - what was that about?
Now I fly high and I don't look back
Won't let nothing stop me, outta the red into the black
I made up my mind that's right
I'm gonna sleep all day and party every night
Livin like a rock star
On Champaign and caviar
Rock on little people, rock on
I’ve seen this life in a dream before
Now everyday I’m walking through those open doors
Crazy days spill into the nights
My head is spinning - out go the lights
I been down this road before
That loser life’s not for me it's such a bore
Need Harleys, hot rods, limousines
How could I not be forgiven for just livin’ all my dreams
I made up my mind it's true
Gonna smash this guitar and trash this hotel room
Livin like a rock star
Rock on little people, rock on

Don't Mean A Thing

Don't mean a thing
Hey all alone what you doing down there digging in the dirt
Picked off the scabs and realized that underneath it all
It really fuckin hurts
And you know you been playin and obeying every rule
Now that the end is fast approaching
You were just another one of the fools
Cause it don't mean a thing no it don't
Lies and promises were made
They swear they're gonna keep ‘em but you know they won't
I’ve been waitin this long hard lonely lifetime for you to see
That you gotta set yourself free
Hey all alone well you were hangin on for every twist and turn
They told that it’s cause you're wicked is the reason why
It fuckin burns
You tried and cried and you believed in everything they had to say
Now you realize it was a lie and you will never get your sunny day
Cause it don't mean a thing no it don't
Lies and promises were made
They swear they're gonna keep em but you know they won't
I’ve been waitin this long hard lonely lifetime for you to see
That you gotta set yourself free
Hey all alone no matter what you try you know you can't get away
They stole your moxie took your soul and now you listen when
They tell you hurry up and wait
You got the shaft they got the gold and there is nothing left to say
Your god can't hear your feeble words when you fall down to
Your knees and pray
Cause it don't mean a thing no it don't
Lies and promises were made
they Swear they're gonna keep em but you know they won't
I’ve been waitin this long hard lonely lifetime for you all to see
Only you can set yourself free

Wastin Time
And I know the end is coming kinda slow
Stop pretending, admit that you don't know
I seem to have found my way again
I’m not as lost as I thought I once had been
And I find the trip it opened up my mind
The clutch it was slipping and I got left behind
In the wreckage that had followed
That somehow bit and swallowed up our lives
No more wasting time
And I know the time has come for me to go
Don't regret it or let your feelings show
Cause tears don't have to follow
A pill so hard to swallow anymore
No more wasting time
And I know the end is coming kinda slow
Stop pretending admit that you don't know
And I seem to have found my way again
I'm not as lost as you thought I once had been
No more wasting time
