Shotgun Wedding
03:35
|

This is our love
Don't steal it
You keep twistin the knife, I can't feel it
This is a shotgun wedding
You're the hole in my head
I would ask you forgiveness baby
But you left me chained to the hotel bed
And then the dog days, they don't howl in the night
Jump out your window it'll be alright, alright
She said
One kiss won't hurt you baby
One hit won't make you save me
One kiss won't hurt you baby
One hit won't make you say
This is our love
Don't steal it
You keep twistin the knife, I can't feel it
This is a shotgun wedding ( come shootin me up)
You're the hole in my head ( you come shooting me up )
I would beg you forgiveness darlin
But I'm still crawlin round the room up to the walls of your legs
And then the dog days they don't howl in the night
Jump out your window you will be alright
Alright
She said
One kiss won't hurt you baby
One hit won't make you save me
One kiss won't hurt you baby
One hit won't make you say
This is our love, this is our love
Whatever happened to us not wanting to be just like everyone else
Was it you that put that heavy heart right back into my chest
Singing heartache is like a caged bird, singing the same old songs we've heard
Time and time and time again
Whatever happens, I'll let you in again
This is our love, this is our love
You keep twistin the knife, I can't feel it

Ride Against The Wind
03:39
|
|||
Reckless Mama's got a dream machine
She's cruising the silver lining
Burnin rubber, making red go green
With her daughter's arms out flying
They're held together with no masterplan
Whatever happens hell she knows she can
Shake off the static, better look out man
Cause they're leaving us all behind
Hey there, we can ride against the wind
Lady, we will ride again
Cosmic Kellie works the rag & bone
Filling holes she can't help but fall in
Freedom dancing when she's on her own
Hears the music of the road a calling
Well Angelina ties a different knot
She crossed her heart but she soon forgot
Yet every loser takes another shot
Saddle up, leave it all behind
Hey there, we can ride against the wind
Lady, we will ride again
Hey there, we can ride against the wind
Oh hey now, we will ride again
Little Raven, she's a renegade
Born leader of the maidens way
She'll pull you closer just to turn and say
Now ladies, let us ride!
Hey there, we can ride against the wind
Lady, we will ride again
Hey there, we can ride against the wind
Oh hell yeah, we will ride again

Runaways
04:28
|

We're runaways
Sleeping shadows from a distant light
Scorned lovers on the make tonight
It's us, we could be running wild
We're damaged goods
And baby that ain't good enough
We've been bitten by the hounds of love
And these howling winds are calling us
Well maybe we've got nothing to lose
It's in the arms of the night that one by one we break through
You know that it's the danger we crave
Under the firing line we throw it all away
We're runaways
Nobody sees the need for us
Our bodies feeding off that different touch and this restlessness will never stop
We're damaged goods
And baby that ain't good enough
There's a hunger that keeps pulling us further and further away
Well maybe we've got nothing to lose
It's in the arms of the night that one by one we break through
You know that it's the danger we crave
Under the firing line we throw it all away
Well baby we got nothing to prove
Can't you see in my eyes I'm just as reckless as you
So what if it's the danger we crave
It makes us runaway
We're runaways
We're runaways
You say that we've got nothing to lose
It's in the arms of the night that one by one we break through
You tell me it's the danger you crave
Under the firing line we'll throw it all away
Well baby we got nothing to prove
Can't you see in my eyes I'm just as reckless as you
So what if it's the danger we crave
In the dead of the night we're all just runaways
You're just a runaway
You're just a runaway

Sweet Divide
05:25
|
|||
In the garden of eden
Through the valley of lies
With no rhyme and no reason
Neath the tree of life
You have no right
Maybe there's no grand design
What if this is all we find?
Caught between this sweet divide
I'm the crack in the mirror
You're the pull in the vine
I'm the voice you remember
When you tell yourself lies
You have no right
Maybe there's no grand design
What if this is all we find?
Caught between this sweet divide
There's a river between us running
I'm coming out of the shadows running
There's a river between us
Maybe there's no grand design
What if this is all we find?
Caught between this sweet divide

Wayward
02:39
|

Funny how life it always turns around
When you least expect
And you're wayward bound
You're down on your hands and knees
When it picks you up
And it dusts you off and then it turns you round
Leaves will always hit the ground
They may never make a sound but they're laughing as they're falling
I may not always be around
I'm in melody you've found
And funny how love it sometimes throws a bone
If you wag your tail, she might take you home
So what if the road you chose was a dead end road
Well what did you expect
It's in the stone you throw
Leaves will always hit the ground
They may never make a sound but they're laughing as they're falling
I may not always be around
Hope this melody you've found will lead you home

The Keeper

Bad bad luck
Woman I got some bad bad luck
Come a rollin the dice
The keeper keepin' me up all night
Oh you love it when they tell you that it's you and no one else, it's a lie
With the two step shimmy like a rag dog spinning you rhymes
And those vampire kisses oughta grant you your wishes tonight
You look like you might need some boy
Bad bad luck
Oh woman you gotta stop
You got my head in a vice
I can't take it but it feels so nice
You love it when they tell you that it's you and no one else, it's a lie
With your two step shimmy like a rag dog spinning you rhymes
And those vampire kisses oughta grant you your wishes tonight
Oh I give in, I give up
I give up
Rattlin bones
Slippin the slide
Rackin them up
Show me the sign
Read em & weep
It's one of a kind
Looks like I may never get out of here alive
Bad bad luck
Oh woman you gotta stop
You gotta stop
I give in, I give up
Oh you love it when they tell you that it's you and no one else, it's a lie
With your two step shimmy like a rag dog spinning you rhymes
And those vampire kisses oughta grant you your wishes tonight
Oh you just love it when they tell you that it's you and no one else, it's a lie
Oh but it's alright, it's all good

Dreamer
03:35
|

I was just an outsider
Thrust into the game of love
Misfortune found its way to find her
Poisoned everything she touched
Well I suppose the signs were so clear to us
The wreckage of our lives held so dear to us
You know that I'm still dreaming
I know, I know
Dreamer
Lovers misleading lies
Heartache
Why won't you leave us behind
Oh my dreamer
Suppose I'm just an old timer
I'll be dancing when the music stops
If lust is just the book that binds us
Why don't we read it til the sun comes up
Well I suppose the signs were so clear to us
That valiance appeared covered up in dust
Who knows why I'm still dreaming
I know, I know
Dreamer
Lovers misleading lies
Heartache
Why won't you leave us behind
Oh my dreamer
There's light in the dark
Yet this feeling of fear it comes crashing on into you, pulling us closer
You know why I'm still dreaming
I know, I know
Dreamer
Lovers misleading lies
Heartache
Why won't you leave us behind
Dreamer

Power Lines
03:45
|

Heart line
Skipping over the power lines
You got me thinking of that first time
When I looked back and caught you looking
Well baby you know this is our time
The birds may try to steal our song tonight
Words escape me almost every time you look back and catch me looking
Darling you know, these are hard times
And we can make it through these hard times
When you get tossed out of your dream at night and you look back
Am I still looking?
Heart line
Skipping over the power lines
You got me thinking of that first time
You got me thinking
Baby you know, these are hard times
And we can make it through these hard times
When you get tossed out of your dream at night
Will you look back?
Cause I'm still looking to make it right

Lost Children
04:21
|
|||
Have I been here before?
I boarded up the doors and I settled all my scores
Yet I sleep amongst the ashes neath the ocean floor
like a deadweight clinging to the distant shore
I realise that I am one of love's lost children waiting to be found.
And you
You stumble through your life
clutching at the vine
whispering in style
as you place your head between the speakers
Life's songs breathing into you on your bedroom floor where the sadness grew and you yearned for more
please don't disturb me mama I'm waiting to be found
But I never knew it could feel like this you know
Thought that I knew love
But then again you say I don't even know myself
yes I'm realising
that we're all just lost children who were waiting to be found
Two lost children waiting to be found
And oh we'll fumble sure with time
still clutching at the vine
still searching as we smile
and we'll listen loud
to the silent sound
so deafening as it talks to me
don't you rescue me
don't
Don't come into my room mama
For I'm waiting to be found
We're all lost children
And we're waiting, waiting, waiting
To be found

Sing Me A Rebel Song
06:43
|
|||
Sing me a rebel song
A song that's gonna save my life tonight
The melody lingers on
And I still hear the sadness in your voice
Well the stop wheels are off
Hell the damage has been done
But you're still throwing punches
Damn, I hope you land another one
Is your candour for effect?
Or has your zipper come undone
Why I keep thinking sooner or later man
Something might just go wrong
And you smile and you say
What's the matter with you boy?
Rolled your eyes and turned away
Do you have to be so coy?
Hell I'm still trying to find my way out of someone else's song
It's just the booze, well that's ok
Still everybody's talkin at me
And I hear the clock a tick tockin louder than before
So what if I'm lost and so what if I'm lonely
Well, what if it's you that keeps reminding me
that I'm only just two steps away
From something bigger than this
Well I go home and I try, I try to get to grips with it
But you, your life just took off
Up the banks of the river with an open mouth
I hear you cryin
But you ain't got that magic anymore
And regret will come a knocking at your door
You feel bad now, don't you boy
Well don't feel bad for me
I hate that
Sing me a rebel song
A song that's gonna save my life tonight
The melody lingers on
But I still hear the sadness in your voice
With my back against the wall
Will I hear the darkness call
I thought you had the answers to it baby
I thought you had the answers to it all
But you ain't got that magic anymore
And regret it comes a knocking at your door
Sing me a rebel song
A song that's gonna save my life tonight
The melody lingers on
And I still hear that sadness in your voice
Sing me a rebel song
A song that's gonna save my life tonight
The melody lingers on
I still hear that sadness in your voice
