Sunset 02:42
I want that thing we discussed when we stared at that sunset The day our lips pushed together, yes we were in love then I took a look into your eyes and I swear that I melted So if you want some love from me, take it all you can have it You easily make love so easy to take love I know you wanted me that night, in your lips I had felt it the day you reached into my chest, grabbed my heart and you held it You shot a smile me, I swear to God that I melted So like I told you before, if you want love you'll have it You easily make love so easy to take love(2x) (solo) You easily make love so easy to take love(2x)

I watch that that cigarette you light and I watch your lips pressed 'round it light Just to touch your skin like that would be sublime Yeah it would be the highlight of my life No on understands you like I could(Like I could) And nobody can love you like would(like I would) I watch as he holds you so tight. And the scene just don't seem fair, no it don't seem right Honey, I should be the one kissing you goodnight It's a dream that I have planned to realize No on understands you like I could(Like I could) And nobody can love you like would(like I would) (2x) (solo) I don't need this inside my life I have seen that window, I have seen the light So for now I'll bid to you a fond goodbye And I hope we can meet in another life No on understands you like I could(Like I could) And nobody can love you like would(like I would) (2x))

Slipping, Slamming In front of you on my knees Crying, Begging for you not to leave Now that you're long gone I remember who I am And the rut I pulled you from, is the one you fell back in I hope the other grass, that seemed so green wilts and dies right beneath your feet Because the ground that was under me has given way and now (I fall free-3x-) I fall... Crying, drying out my eyes it seems Ripping, tearing my heart at the seams Now that you're long gone I remember who I am and the rut I pulled you from, is the one you fell back in I hope the other grass, that seemed so green wilts and dies right beneath your feet Because the ground that was under me has given way and now (I fall free-3x-) I fall... All I really want is a love to call my own(to call my own) I just need some place that I could finally call my home(could call my home) Now I've really come to know in my heart How damn easily it all could fall apart And I fall free I fall free 3x I fall...

And let's get drunk all over again! oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh let's get drunk

Terra Firma I have fallen, are you there to break my fall Father father please forgive me for I know not what I've done I need a guide, a light to show me the way to help me shine through the darkness so that I'm allowed to see 'Cause here I'm blind So give me sight I have never wanted this for myself, this life is so cold Father told me, don't forget me sonny I am getting old I need to find a window of clarity So that I can see beyond the fog that builds in front of me 'Cause here I'm blind So give me sight (solo) 'Cause here I'm blind So give me sight 'Cause here I'm blind So give me sight

O-T-L! The love we had was full of drugs, sex and alcohol Hip Hop and Rock n' Roll, th music never lacked at all I came a running to the siren of your beckoned call so you would know I loved you and that I was never backing off. You made excuses of my love, said it would suffocate and that your friends all hated me and you would suffer hate Who would have known that morning I would have to suffer fate of pain so bad the most painful of deaths could not alleviate Everyone( everyone!) Please forget (please forget!) All you think you know (Please forget all you think you know) Whatever game you wanted, started and then play I did Whatever words of love you wanted me to say, I did you left me hanging and I fell apart the way I did So when we got together I would never show the pain I hid 'Cause you were everything, my world, you were a piece of me And when you left me there, you took a bigger piece of me And there's no way that I'll be walking from this peacefully These lyrics are the only way I'll ever find some peace in me Everyone( everyone!) Please forget (please forget!) All you think you know (Please forget all you think you know) The debauchery and these emotions (emotions!) Should never feel like home These emotions never feel like home These emotions never feel like home These emotions never feel like home THESE EMOTIONS NEVER FEEL LIKE HOME! (solo) No one can rock me like you could... No one nobody, no... And I can't stop Your voice keeps playing in my head...on repeat ON REPEAT! Everyone( everyone!) Please forget (please forget!) All you think you know (Please forget all you think you know) The debauchery and these emotions (emotions!) Should never feel like home These emotions never feel like home These emotions never feel like home These emotions never feel like home THESE EMOTIONS NEVER FEEL LIKE HOME!

Zombie 03:01
Came at me shuffling With one leg dragging, lingering and I knew, something was wrong with this scene His throat cut from ear to ear and he groaned at me as he came near And I asked, do you need help friend...AND HE BIT ME Now I'm a zombie I'm so undead...zombie Yesterday I was minding my own business when some dude came up and bit me...zombie... My fever ran so high My skin felt like it was on fire and I knew, what was to come soon I let go my final breath and with arms stretched out, grasped on to death And then I woke up and I felt...hungry... i FELT HUNGRY Now I'm a zombie I'm so undead...zombie Yesterday I was minding my own business when some dude came up and bit me I'm not alive I am undead I want the stuff inside of your head...zombie...
