Alrighty 03:30
I'm coming straight from Hollywood It's a story of us Something I just don't believe Why can't I feel your touch? Take my heart and stop, then decay Throw me on the rocks, walk away Doors to you are locked, look as I Hold out screaming ALRIGHTY It's all an illusion I hate all of the exclusion Over time I'd forget, out of site and I'll sit there screaming I'm not alright ALRIGHTY Take my heart and stop, then decay Throw me on the rocks, walk away Doors to you are locked, look as I Hold out screaming ALRIGHTY I cannot imagine seeing you with someone else, lying there in your bed, playing with your hair I cannot imagine staying here, broken promises behind a broken mirror Wishing things would clear up Holding the ground, structurally weak Time to go out, won't accept defeat Looking up to the sky, as I make my break heading for you is it worth knowing that the truth is a lie? Looking towards the sky, I'm not alright I hate all of the exclusion Over time I'd forget, out of site and I'll sit there screaming I'm not alright

Warm inside, when I'm sitting Here tonight, just imagine What it's like, it's all magic It's unreal They were right, can't you see that I'm your type, doing things that Make you smile, let's go out and Make it real We have so many Summers Sleepless Nights are the regular We got stories to tell, I Can't wait to go there Now sunrise, crazy how you Light my life, talking to you It's so nice, into the blue Lets go We have so many Summers Sleepless Nights are the regular We got stories to tell, I Can't wait to go there Happy times are upon us Tonights all that I'm dreaming of We got stories to tell, I Can't wait to go there Outro Now it's time to get going Don't worry we'll be back Before you know it Before you know it

Bees 05:15
Born to destroy, rampages boy This is no lie, he's taken flight Now it's his time, stars are aligned Earth is your tomb and he's coming for you! Avoid his eye, flee for your life Power increase, unleash his beam! The world in flames, you must reclaim This is your home, take back your throne Oh nevermind, you're out of time You've sealed your fate there's no chance of escape! Avoid his eye, flee for your life Power increase, unleash his beam! The world is ash, you've felt his wrath No prisoners, No survivors Now there's just you, what will you do? No! Don't be slack, watch out he's coming back! Avoid his eye, flee for your life Power increase, unleash his beam! Avoid his eye, flee for your life Power increase, unleash his beam!

Told On 04:02
I'm in doubt if I'm here right now can you not see it's dawn? the shadows are gone, we fall Look right here in the sky so clear that you're my world, just speak do you know me at all? Tell me something only you would know Secrets kept, no I won't accept a shift in truth, no lies no compromise, we've lost Honestly I just don't believe you'd forget my name it hurts all the same, we've lost Tell me something only you would know Something lost, something found What it cost? Don't know how Running clear, tired from Being here, make it stop I don't know if it's our song Anymore Anymore Tell me something only you would know Tell me something only you would know I lost my way just tell me where to go Tell me something I wouldn't know

Speaking volumes, don't you recognise the dangers ahead? Are we on again tonight? Stop complaining, it ain't any of our fault, softly screaming Are we on again tonight? Are we on again tonight? I don't control the things I see Leading us down blind alley I don't control the way you are Tearing this life apart Crawling inside she's addictive on the floor, how you gonna say no? Are we on again tonight? Sleeping over was a terrible idea, why'd you say yeah? Are we on again tonight? Are we on again tonight? I don't control the things I see Leading us down blind alley I don't control the way you are Tearing this life apart Now it's quiet she won't get the telephone, she left you alone you think on again tonight? it ain't on again tonight no more on again tonight on again tonight on again

Sunburnt 03:52
Going home's the best thing I did Crack a smile you can't deny it Got a grip upon this feeling And I won't let go Held away for God knows how long Now I'm out and nothing feels wrong Tryna hold me back from leaving But I have let go And I got through the Summer Days, without you And I will carry on just fine And I got through the Winters haze, without you Carry on with my life My vision is much clearer Looking out the rearview mirror We'll leave the worst behind us Driving right through Now it's come all together They won't find someone better Than you Than you And I got through the Summer Days, without you And I will carry on just fine And I got through the Winters haze, without you Carry on with my life

Devil's Jam 05:21
Army's here (listen to em) Follow line (listen to em) It's ok (listen to em) Just don't lie (listen to em) Sign away (listen to em) Hold your spine (listen to em) Listen to (listen to em) Them now (listen to em) Clone it, refine it, help me make the remedy Clone it, refine it, help me make the remedy now Devils dance atop of my coffin They continuously stomping Working me until I drop it Making my soul bleed just stop it Making my soul bleed Making my soul bleed Making my soul bleed Making my soul bleed The Devils Jam Quickly now (listen to em) Raise your voice (listen to em) It's no time (listen to em) To rejoice (listen to em) Gotcha now (listen to em) There's no choice (listen to em) Listen to (listen to em) Them now (listen to em) Because the demons never sleep it's your job to protect yourself Now they see you you're frail and weak don't waste your time and cry for help Clone it, refine it, help me make the remedy Clone it, refine it, help me make the remedy now Devils dance atop of my coffin They continuously stomping Working me until I drop it Making my soul bleed just stop it Making my soul bleed Making my soul bleed Making my soul bleed Making my soul bleed The Devils Jam

Wait 03:33
The path to you hidden away I saw no one to love today The loneliness that shades my eyes I've learnt to hate my only highs Cause I want you more than I want most I cannot take this life alone So if you'd wait there just for me Together one day we will be To have you here just for one night Too bad my eyes can't see the light Cause all these dreams that i once had I guess they're gone, I guess you're glad

Fool 03:40
We had just begun, now I'm only one Slowly turn away to see you moving on When I close my eyes, something special dies Don't you close your eyes, without goodbye Look at you embodying the face of hatred (Falling out of love) Memories disappear my visions faded (Falling out of love) I can't stand the sight of you, look what you've become (Falling out of love) We're falling, in deeper, we're falling out of love (Falling out of love) Pictures turn to grey, hope for yesterday Feel the clarity inside fade away When I close my eyes, something special dies Don't you close your eyes, is this our goodbye?
