Take Me Home

Verse 1:
Bend but not break
Tempting fate
Taking what’s left of all innocence
Gaining no ground
Beaten down
Taking what’s left of my sanity
Every day another doubt creeps in
And washes over me
Can there be another way ahead
To free me from this pain
Verse 2:
Standing my ground
Feeling bound
Gripped by the urgency of now
Seething within
Patience thin
Surrender what’s left of my dignity
Pre-Chorus:
(Oh, Ohhh)
Just get out while you can she says to me
(Oh, Ohhh)
Just end it now and break out while you can
Chorus:
Come take me home
Grab ahold and pull me back from the unknown
This dying fire inside is fading fast
So while the embers glow
Come take me home
Verse 3:
Forsaken and torn
Empty and worn
Clutching what’s left of reality
Broken and lost
At too high a cost
Walking away with what’s left of me
Pre-Chorus
Chorus
Bridge:
I cannot give the more you take
Too much is gone to recreate
I cannot give the more you take
I can’t, I can’t, I can’t,
I can’t go on
Too much is gone to recreate
I can’t I can’t I can’t,
I can’t go on
Chorus

Verse 1:
Everything you see is green
It’s all you’ve ever seen
Pre-Chorus:
You sit alone at midnight
Counting stars of years gone by
Chorus:
And all those dreams your killing
For a chance to live a life
For someone else’s sins
Inside their cave of ice
When you gonna come down
When you gonna learn
Peel off all the dead skin
That suffocates your world
Verse 2:
Burning up your own sould
Until it left you so cold
Pre-Chorus
Chorus
Chorus 2:
And all those dreams your killing
For a chance to live a life
For someone else’s sins
Inside their cave of ice
Verse 3:
In the shadow of your life
Lives a man with a jagged knife

Let It Rain

Verse 1:
I am like a waterfall
Under water and out of breath
Under you and over myself
Pre-Chorus:
Tell me
Can you dance tonight
Or will you
Stare into that mirror all alone
Verse 2:
Getting lost in that face
Drunk on nothing that you love
I can feel you lost inside this place
Pre-Chorus
Chorus:
Let it rain down brother
Let it rain so you can see
A clearer view of who
You were meant to be
Let it rain down
Let it rain down
Let it rain down on me
Pre-Chorus
Chorus
Guitar Solo
Let it rain down
Let it rain down
Let it rain down on me
Tell me can you dance tonight

Only You

Verse 1:
People say that I’m the lucky one
In life and love and
That’s how I felt when I met you on that September morning
I’ve been around the block a time or two
But still I know that
It makes me smile when I’m with you
Chorus:
Only You
Only You
Only You
Verse 2:
We’ve seen our share of other’s ups and downs
They’ve cracked and broken
Untied and set adrift at sea
Up goes the flare for rescue
I know we both have felt the same at times
Want to surrender
But the sun keeps shining through
Pre-Chorus:
There are some days life brings me down
There are some days
Thinking of you brings me back around
Like feeling sun after rain
Chorus
Guitar Solo
Chorus
Verse 3:
Twenty years from now I’ll look back
On life and love and
Be glad I spent so much with you since that September morning
As simple as our story seems to me
It all comes down to
My life is better next to you
Pre-Chorus

Verse 1:
There are days I wish I could turn back time and start this all again
Far away from where I find myself, struggling from within
Kept awake by your memories and tears upon your face
In a way it’s all that’s left of me, it’s more than I can take
A fire burns beneath the sand
Chorus 1
It’s in my hands
It’s in my hands
It’s in my hands
Verse 2:
Can’t believe that all that’s left of you just lingers in the wind
I can feel the ghosts of yesterday, tearing at my skin
All the warmth has just been drained from me and left me with nothing
Can tomorrow breathe some life in me and make me new again
A future freed from happenstance
Chorus 2
It’s in my hands
(Rising up, can’t be held down)
It’s in my hands
(I’ve come too far to turn back now)
It’s in my hands
(Breaking out and moving on)
It’s in my hands
(What’s Gone is Gone)
Solo
Chorus 2
