You can go when you want to baby – I’m gonna meet you at home I’m gonna hang around some sunshine I’ll be shining the chrome – You’ll be standing alone They’re wondering why you’re so stone-faced You’re really killing the mood – You’re leaving with some dude... Your morning glory brings you a whole new altitude You said you’d stay and try to have some fun – You wanna walk home, but I think you’d better run Patience Lost – Watching you walk away – I’m feeling good, but not so much A line’s been crossed – It’s just the way we play – I’m feeling good, but you're just my crutch You can go when you want to baby – I’m gonna meet you at home I’m gonna hang around til sunrise I’ll be shining the chrome – You’ll be standing alone They’re wondering why you’re so stone-faced You said you’d stay and try to have some fun – You wanna walk home, but I think you’d better run Patience Lost – Watching you walk away – I’m feeling bad, but not so much A line’s been crossed – It’s just the way we play – I’m feeling good, but you're just my crutch

A Rock N Roll Relapse – Brought about by hand claps A strategy of sound waves – Just knowing how the band saves And it’s just an observation – Of Living in a tired nation One to One - I face the end – I have nothing else to defend Shaking hands with rhythm – a Foot stomping’s what I give ‘em You can win, yeah that's alright – You can stay, but keep it air tight And it’s a no win situation – talking to a silent nation One to One - I face the end – I have nothing else to defend A well designed revamp – Locked into a three minute time stamp A melody to capture – a concept or phrase to fracture. We are zoned for demolition, Can no longer thrive in these conditions One to One - I face the end – I have nothing else to defend

Standing at the terminal I can almost hear the music Coming from the cold and chilly L.A. night And when we get to the gate, baby All of the things that were said Will they turn you 'round and bring you back? Will they bring you back? Will you come back home 'cause you know I'm waiting? The light of love is always on You know my love is getting stronger and stronger The light of love is always on Keeping the night watch Baby, are you lonely, don't talk to strangers I try to tell myself you won't be gone for long And when we get to the part, baby when all of the tears start to come Will they you turn around, get you on the plane? That brings you back, will you come back home? 'Cause you know I'm waiting The light of love is always on You know my love is getting stronger and stronger The light of love is always on Keeping the night watch The light of love is always on The light of love is always on You know my love is getting stronger and stronger The light of love is always on Keeping the night watch The light of love is always on You know my love is getting stronger and stronger The light of love is always on Keeping the night watch Keeping the night watch Keeping the night watch

Transitions 02:45
Goodbye, it was a good try or the alibi til the colors fly… This held meaning for the two of us – It was a push and shove of broken trust A tremor quake from the caving in – That knowing glance, we could never win A flowing rise from the ocean floor – We held on because we expected more You keep wishing for transition – No name attached to the blame Not far above suspicion – In the face of sudden change Goodbye, It’s long gone – A farewell song for moving on Coming out of an extended haze – We’re shutting down, it’s the ending phase We made the run and took the fall – The foundation stands without a single wall Surprise has come, there’s no more lies – We stand exposed for all seeing eyes You keep wishing for transition – No name attached to the blame Not far above suspicion – In the face of sudden change

Knife Fight 03:07
Came upon a knife fight – Waiting at a red light – I see bodies all around Coming to the table – Are you willing? Are you able? – You won’t make a sound Nobody said you should do it alone, but everyone feels like you should be gone - You should be gone I avoided landmines, swigging on the strychnine, You can’t take me down Are You Sane are you stable? Looking for a label? Use the lost and found. Nobody said you should do it alone, but everyone feels like you should be gone

A red horizon on the run, feeling like an empty gun. Around the corner limited, I run the risk of slipping in. Possibly this very day, a never ending love will stay. Passing it on – You’re gonna learn to be strong Passing it on – This won’t take very long, I’m passing it on Then their faces deliver me, it’s clear they’re all I need to see. Logging changes line by line, with signed approvals, feeling fine. Progressing updates, more or less, these little fires get addressed. Passing it on – You’re gonna learn to be strong Passing it on – This won’t take very long, I’m passing it on A wider glimpse of everything, in the middle of an awakening I can move forward, force the pen, I have the time to start or stop again. Passing it on – You’re gonna learn to be strong Passing it on – This won’t take very long, I’m passing it on

There's a reason - For the sunshine sky There's a reason - Why I'm feelin' so high Must be the season - When that love light shines all around us So let that feeling - Grab you deep inside And send you reeling - Where your love can't hide And then go stealing - Through the summer nights With your lover Just let your love flow - Like a mountain stream And let your love grow - With the smallest of dreams And let your love show - And you'll know what I mean It's the season Let your love fly - Like a bird on the wing And let your love bind you - To all living things And let your love shine - And you'll know what I mean - That's the reason There's a reason - For the warm sweet nights There's a reason - For the candle lights Must be the season - When those love rites shine all around us So let the wonder - Take you into space And lay you under- Its loving embrace Feel the thunder - As it warms your face You can't hold back Just let your love flow - Like a mountain stream And let your love grow - With the smallest of dreams And let your love show - And you'll know what I mean It's the season Let your love fly - Like a bird on the wing And let your love bind you - To all living things And let your love shine - And you'll know what I mean That's the reason

Looking back I can see the signs – I can the shape – I can see the need to escape – As if it was caught on tape. Like a tax that I can’t possibly pay – Like a game that I never learned to play – But I learned to lose And I can’t say that I’m all that surprised – I was aware of the air there leading where you found all those darkened skies. And I was afraid that you’d try to lie to me – Save yourself if nothing else, at least you’ve your health – But I see you’re going down As I address the way your numbing heart beats – I see the look, it means forgive all these dirty deeds. Like a loss that I already feel – All I’m asking for is one last repeal as I seal this business deal. And I can’t say that I’m all that surprised – I was aware of the air there leading where you found all those darkened skies. And I was afraid that you’d try to lie to me – Save yourself if nothing else, at least you’ve mastered stealth – But I see you’re going down And I can’t say that I’m all that surprised – I was aware of the air there leading where you found all those darkened skies. And I was afraid that you’d try to lie to me – Save yourself if nothing else, at least you’ve your health – But I see you’re going down And I can’t say that I’m all that surprised – I was aware of the air there leading where you found all those darkened skies. And I was afraid that you’d try to lie to me – Save yourself if nothing else, at least you’ve mastered stealth – But I see you’re going down

Go-Video 03:10
We no longer take rides on the radio waves, we’re soul to soul we are pay to play The magic drained out long ago, but we all know it’s out there in the audio Camcorder, stereo, here we go - winding road, back when time moved slow. Go – Go – Go – Video Go – Go – Go – Video If static can't exist, we add it to the list The dreams that twist and bend won’t matter to a friend. We find a place to be where the town can comes to see, I stare off into space – but, I remember your face. A deep and darkened blue abyss that leads to something more, something more than this. And these things I think I have to say, what’s my problem? Who’s to say? I need to find my way out of here, hopefully this year my path will appear Go – Go – Go – Video Go – Go – Go – Video If static can’t exist, we add it to the list The dreams that twist and bend won’t matter to a friend. We find a place to be where the town can comes to see, I stare off into space - , but I remember your face.

And here she comes with her shoulders pointing forward as if to say that now’s the time. And in a way I’m glad to know that I will finally face her. She always comes to take what’s mine. This One’s For The Girls – Seeking validation This One’s For The Girls – In need of intervention And in the corner room we made a pact, we made it past the words that twist into an obligation. Moreover, I told her I could barely hold her. Learn what u need or pay in time. This One’s For The Girls – Searching for direction This One’s For The Girls – Living by deflection This One’s For The Girls – Striving for perfection This One’s For The Girls – As they rise above depression This One’s For The Girls – Fighting for attention This One’s For The Girls – That never get a mention

I gotta gal down in Diddy Wah Diddy Ain't no town and it ain't no city Loves her man and it's just a pity - Crazy 'bout my girl from Diddy Wah Diddy This little girl's as sweet as could be I know she's in love with me A lovely face, Man, she's so pretty But she's still way down in Diddy Wah Diddy Ain't no town, Ain't no city - But oh, how they love in Diddy Wah Diddy She kisses me about all the time She's gonna turn me outta my mind Anything she wants, you know I’m ready Run straight back to Diddy Wah Diddy Ain't no town, Ain't no city - But Lord, how they love in Diddy Wah Diddy
