Just south of Ryde there’s a place I like to hide
it’s not hard to find but I know it’s always empty
so dark inside, it’s like you died but you’re still drinking
never mind the vibe, it’s a place to start scheming
Just you and me dancing and free all we can be
Let’s make our dreams real
You know how I feel, don’t take it away
leave it to me
Million dollar play, we get out and we get even
all I need is Jade, she’s the eyes I need to see through
don’t turn away, don’t turn the lights out baby
it’s the only way, now I know I can’t live without you
Just you and me dancing and free all we can be
Let’s make our dreams real
You know how I feel, don’t take it away
leave it to me
I heard she got away, took it all up to Reno
blew it in a day, sounds like something we’d do
everyday’s the same, Iike to say I’ve changed
I’d do it all again, if it meant being with you
Just you and me dancing and free all we can be
Let’s make our dreams real
You know how I feel, don’t take it away
now I can breathe

Up The River
04:08

One of these days they might find me
lying face down in a ditch
you’ll never know what an angel will bring you
you’ll never know what the plan is
Don’t sell me up the river, don’t tell me that I’m through
One of these days I might finally make it
then I’ll mail you a “told you so”
you don’t have to follow your feelings
sometimes you just gotta let go
Don’t sell me up the river, don’t tell me that I’m through
Hey you’ll never find me, hey and you’ll never win
One of these days I’ll get lazy
leave a breadcrumb for the fools
one of these days I’ll get lonely
Try to get too close to you
Don’t sell me up the river, don’t tell me that I’m through
Hey you’ll never find me, hey and you’ll never win
And I feel like I finally found you
and I feel like I finally know you
and I feel like a son never runs
if he runs then he’s done
Hey you’ll never find me, hey but you’ll never win

History
03:27
|

All these years you never knew
what made you think that I was through
it doesn’t matter to me that’s the way it should be
Every time I see your eyes
reflected there are my lies
it doesn’t matter to me that’s the way it should be
All those times I could barely see
There you were right in front of me
The rest is history, don’t walk out on me
All these wasted words we spew
come back to haunt us as the truth
it doesn’t matter to me that’s the way it should be
I’m done running through the wind
I’ll never be as fast as them
it doesn’t matter to me that’s the way it should be
All those times I could barely see
There you were right in front of me
The rest is history, don’t walk out on me

Halloween
04:35
|

Your fantasy gives me a reason
your reverie tells me the future
when you walk away the stars go with you
and all that’s left behind is a dark, empty sky
Your diary, it leaves out the good parts
your promises, they don’t believe you
You may look away, but the mirror won’t forget you
The sun will shine again, but our house is shuttered
Halloween, heals me, Halloween, heals me
You’re never free from your secrets
your darkest dreams, they’re no different
when you run away, you’ll find the light
shining in a field of scarecrows and your demons
Halloween, heals me, Halloween, heals me
Halloween, hears me, Halloween, leads me
and it burns and it burns and it burns and it burns so bright
Halloween heals me, Halloween heals me

Don't Feel Like Dancin'
03:30
|

I see you all the time, you roam the inside of my mind
I never really said goodbye, I closed the door walked away
I don’t feeling like dancing anymore
I never wanted it this way, locked away inside my brain
I look through bars at your smile, I’ll touch your face again
I don’t feel like dancing anymore
I don’t feel like dancing anymore…
I don’t feel right

So Excited
02:53

I’m so excited to be invited to a party that wants someone like me
So excited to tell my story to see the look of hatred in your eyes
All I want is to see you again, but I know that you’ll never be there
I’m so excited to be invited, I feel so honored to feel like I fit in
Yeah I know, it’s all for show, welcome back but stay away from me
All I want is to see you again, but I know that you’ll never be there
And you know that I wanna see her, but I know I’ll never get in
Yeah I know everybody sends your best
Yeah I know everybody sends your best
And I know that I gotta get outta here
but I can’t leave without you alive or dead
I’m so excited to leave behind everybody I never wanted to like
I’m so excited, so exited, so excited

Doesn't Matter
04:14
|

It doesn’t matter what you say, everybody gonna take you on
they take a look at where you’re from, they think they know you but they’re wrong
all they see’s your life from barstools and cars
they don’t know how hard you try
well it doesn’t matter what you do, nobody gonna give you a break
it’s all or nothing in this town, might as well just burn it down
you may think you’re life is over, but you don’t have to pick that fight
pick it up, take it easy
pick it up and take the high road
It doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter what you do
Doesn’t matter what side you’re on, you’re always looking inside out
you got your pride you’re never wrong, nobody gonna put you down
they may think you’re just another drunk, they don’t know how far you fell
so pick it up, take it easy
pick it up and take the high road
It doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter what you do

Broken Radio
04:33
|

Turned on the TV, saw you on the news again
I know it’s not always your fault
I know you woke up in the same clothes again
I heard you crying through the wall
We’re gonna go riding again
Everybody says you’re high again
They just love to watch you fall
But when you pick up that guitar and sing
You turn us all inside out
When it’s all over and done with you just want to go home and start over again
Our radio is always broken
but your songs they still come through
well I know I can’t fix you
but I can’t let you in
When it’s all over and done with
you just want to go home and start over again
We’re gonna go riding again…
When it’s all over and done with you just want to go home and start over again
