Together 04:08
lyrics

First I find the reason why and then I over simplify Figure out a way to make things better But better never comes along, and all I find are more sad songs Guess I’ll keep on singing them forever Forever is a mystery and that is true for you and me I wish that we could spend more time together Together is the only thing that’s ever made much sense to me I love you in a way that can’t be measured Well, I could write a million songs About the things that I’ve done wrong I can try and sing about the truth Nothing I can say today will make it all go away I’m sorry for the things I’ve done to you Later on I start to think have I had too much to drink Should I sleep or should I keep on talkin' The sun has started coming up and I’m feeling like this empty cup I know I shouldn’t drive I should be walkin’ Yeah I could have a thousand drinks To wash away the things I’ve done But I can’t forget the truth Nothing that I drink today will make it all go away I’m sorry for the things I’ve done to you All the mistakes I’ve made Only the price I’ve paid Oh is it all outweighed by the things I’ve done and do loving only you? When you fall asleep tonight I hope the world would hold you tight I wish that we could share this time together I know at times I’ve let you down And from a window in a different town I wonder if your life could be much better I’ve thought about this all night long That’s why I’m singing this damn song And I’ll keep singing it forever As I become a better man I’ll be there to hold your hand It’s simple but it’s true For everything that’s gone awry I’ll never apologize For loving only you All the mistakes I’ve made Only the price I’ve paid Oh, is it all outweighed by the things I’ve done and do, loving only you?

I don’t want to break my soul But if I do I might strike gold With that gold maybe I could buy your heart With your heart I find love With that love I’ll find my soul In our souls we know that Love’s as good as gold I’m chasin' the sun Out on the run Won’t stop til I find you Once I’m riding the moon I’ll be seein’ you soon I’m chasin' the sun Yeah I’m chasin’ you I don’t believe when you say you don’t see it Do you feel we’ve lost the magic touch? I never believe when you say you don’t need it This was never just your tragic crutch I don’t want to break my soul But if I do I might strike gold And with that gold maybe I won’t fall apart I’m chasin the sun Out on the run Won’t stop til I find you Once I’m riding the moon I’ll be seein’ you soon Chasin' the sun Yeah I’m chasin’ you The stars will guide me Where I want to go And when I get there I’ll steal back all my gold Beyond the edge of everything we know The stars will shine for you because you are the gold I’m chasin the sun Out on the run Won’t stop til I find you Once I’m ridin' the moon... yeah! Chasin the sun Out on the run Won’t stop til I find you Once I’m riding the moon I’ll be seeing you soon I’m chasin the sun Yeah I’m chasin the sun Out on the run Won’t stop til I find you Once I’m ridin' the moon I’ll be seeing you soon I’m chasin' the sun Yeah I’m chasin' you

Baby I love you I always have and I always will You know I miss you when I’m out on the road and you’re home alone sitting still I wouldn't ever go and tell you how to feel I’m just trying so hard to give you something real When I’m flying high and you’re feeling low I’ll send you some flowers and a sweet little note I wish you were here right now but babe I’ve gotta hang up the phone I can’t wait to get home Looking through photos I love that you’re wearing my clothes I can’t find my headphones to watch that old video That we took on Christmas of the dogs playing in snow I miss that feeling of you keeping me warm when it’s so cold When I’m flying high and you’re feeling low I’ll send you some flowers and a sweet little note I wish you were here right now but babe I’ve gotta hang up the phone I can’t wait to get home When I get there baby I’ll pick you up off the floor Throw my bag in the corner And hang my hat on the door I’ll shower you in my kisses And love you all through the night *sick riff* I put my boots back on And whisper goodbye I’m flying high and you’re feelin’ low I’ll leave you some flowers and a sweet little note I wish I could stay my love I already miss you so I’m flying high and you’re feelin’ low I gotta go and play a couple more shows I wish you were here right now Cause babe this shit is getting old I can’t wait to get home I can’t wait to get home I can’t wait to get home

I will work for you darlin' I will fight until my arms are sore I’ll keep chasin' you Til’ my lungs are black and blue And you know I’m what you’re lookin’ for I can’t say that i’ve been worthy And my words may not seem true But I’m callin' it now an unbreakable vow Until our days are through I will pour into this vessel I will drain all that I have I’ll replace what I skewed When my aperture unglued And show you what you’re looking for I will work for you darlin’ I will fight until my arms are sore I’ll keep chasin' you Til’ my lungs are black and blue And you know I’m what you’re lookin’ for Whatever it takes I know we’ve got it And everyone else Can go to hell I know one day i’ll say to you When our last breath we drew It was all worth fighting for Oh hear me my love Oh hear me my love Oh hear me my love Oh hear me my love Oh hear me my love Oh hear me my love Oh hear me my love I will work for you darlin I will fight until my arms are sore And I’ll keep chasin’ you Til’ my lungs are black and blue And you know you’re what i’m lookin’ for

Carrying A Star 04:18
lyrics
buy track
Last night I dreamt I was an astronaut A moon man so far away Consumed by all of this emptiness All alone in this place A light starts flashing on my radio faintly a voice calls out my name It says every traveler has felt his share of pain But don’t you have a world to save? Constantly I am reminded of what I already know It’s the simple things that keep us moving on Takin’ the ones you love And holdin em’ in your arms It’s making the right choice even when it’s hard and movin’ through the universe Carrying a Star Fell asleep with the tv on Some nature type of show About a man 10,000 years ago trying to build his family home Constantly I am reminded of what I already know It’s the simple things that keep us moving on It’s the ones you love holdin em’ in your arms It’s making the right choice even when it’s hard And movin’ through the universe Carrying a star Constantly I am reminded of what I already know It’s the simple things that keep us moving on It’s the ones you love holdin em’ in your arms It’s making the right choice even when it’s hard And movin’ through the universe Yeah it’s movin through the universe Yeah it’s movin through the universe Carrying a star Carrying a star

Come now open my chest And find out just how little that I have left I’ll walk with the demons dance with the dogs But I’ll never forget The love that i’ve lost All in all I am done hiding in the shadows Some damn lyric about choice I am done prayin’ to my vampires I am finally raising my voice I don’t know what the hell I’m supposed to say But im screamin’ my lungs right here out anyway I’ll repeat the words as long as it takes And i’ll spit this bullshit right back in your face All in all I am done hiding in the shadows Some damn lyric about choice I am done praying to the vampires I am finally raising my voice The fire inside of me Can’t be controlled anymore I’m taking my final steps And I’m sealing my fate I am finally raising my voice I am done hiding in the shadows Some damn lyric about choice I am done praying with your vampires I am finally raising my voice

The Ballad of Young Jones 05:23
lyrics
buy track
His daddy was a sailor He was never around But you could find him every night At the only bar in town He left the task of raisin’ Young Jones to his ma And every year on his birthday She’d forge his birthday card The day he turned sixteen He got a hundred dollar bill She said this didn’t come from your dad And nothin’ ever will The Poison in his veins Has made him mean and cold Don’t you end up just like him when you grow old Momma moved em to TX found herself a good hearted man Put Young Jones on the football field To keep the bottle out of his hand He had a hell of a season Gettin scouted by the NFL First play of the final game He Tripped and tore his ACL Jones tried to fill the void He climbed into a bottle of pills knocked a couple of women up Cause that’s a hole that he could fill He fell in love with trouble left the babies home alone Chaos is a mean god And it led him down amphetamine road The Poison’s in his veins It makes him mean and cold Don’t you end up just like him when you grow old They Went back to Nebraska After mama had her stroke two weeks later the good man died And took with him all the hope Well he left them some money Just enough to cause a scene That’s when the extended family showed up And taught us all the meaning of greed Jones was spendin’ like crazy To help his momma get around But his hungry ass aunts and uncles We’re trying to bring young jones down The poison in their veins has made them mean and cold, Don’t you end up just like them when you grow old Don’t you end up just like them Cause there’s still time, there’s still time To save your souls Try to escape where you come from Don’t forget that it’s easier said than done You’ve gotta try to escape where you come from Don’t forget that it’s easier, yeah it’s easier said than done Is your daddy a failure? Well he’s never around You can find him every night Behind some bars outside of town If he calls to hear your voice Don’t listen to a single word Two generations down I’d hate to see you be the third God will you give you the cards But the devil’s in what you do It ain’t about your old man now Kids it’s all ‘bout you The poison in your name It can’t be bought or sold Don’t you end up just like them Just like them Just like them When you grow old

Tomorrow 04:06

Tomorrow Fell from the tower Sippin’ on grace Pushing all my problems to another day I’m getting close on the long way home but I might not make it anyway Paper piled high coverin’ the door my long list of problems from the ceiling to the floor Feeling like a Monday, my Sunday chore Fell a bit behind then a little bit more I’ll deal with tomorrow when it comes Whenever it does I’ll wake up and live with it then don’t worry my friend Time waits for nobody don’t you wait and see Tomorrow’s gonna deal with me Gonna pull the lever and get what I can take Rolling into heaven with a smile on my face High five the devil kissin Peter on the cheek it’s a four man war with the holy trinity Spitfire and I don’t need your plan But you know that I could use a little money in my hand I’ll deal with tomorrow when it comes if ever it does I’ll wake up and live with it then don’t worry my friend Time waits for nobody don’t you wait and see Tomorrow’s gonna deal with me I’ll deal with tomorrow when it comes if ever it does I’ll wake up and live with it then don’t worry my friend Time waits for nobody don’t you wait and see Tomorrow’s gonna deal with me

Times 03:12
lyrics

Theres times when i’m scared Times when I’m lonely Times when I’m searching for things I don’t have Closin’ my eyes waiting to find Something to help me get through To a time that I know my life could be better If I would just face the unknown But i’m holding so tight And believe me i’ve tried letting go Will I ever live up to my own expectations? Promises hollow in these empty spaces If all of the walls crumbled around me Then would I know where to go.. to find… A place in my life that’s a little bit better Where I won’t feel so alone I’ve been holdin’ so tight and I won’t regret letting go All this time Have I wasted my whole damn life? Waitin All this time Have I wasted my whole damn life? Waitin For the day when it all comes together Do I even dare hope The despair I live with won’t last forever And somehow I make it home?
