New Blood 03:43
New life inside of me Coarsing through my veins with Every beat And I feel it changing me With every drop of Blood I bleed Better off Letting go before the feeling's lost Cause Holding on Has a price and isn't worth the cost So let it go Let it go New blood is in my veins And it's calling me to change But if I wait too long before it's gone I'll always be the same Moving on Instead of waiting till the feeling's gone Cause What's the cost To let go of things you've already lost Can't be much So let it go Let it go New blood is in my veins And it's calling me to change But if I wait too long before it's gone I'll always be the same But it's old blood That leaves me drained Until it's colors start to change Blue to red Old blood will shed And I'll never be the same

Stand Down 02:41
Broke down, defeated Or at least that's how it Feels now as I bleed out And with the world coming down Around me it grounds me But I won't let it get the Best of me or test me Not as long as I hold my own Stand tall, shape up The world's gonna try to Keep me down and shut me out And it feels like it wants to See me fail but I'll prevail Even if it takes a Lifetime I'll still strive For as long as I can so . . . I won't I won't stand down No I won't I won't lose my ground NO! Stead fast and hold strong Anchor down until the Storm is gone and hold on And the world's gonna try to Let me drown and bring me down But as long as I still got Fight in me I'll still be Holding my own so . . I won't I won't stand down No I won't I won't lose my ground

Redefine 02:18
I once thought I knew it all And there was no more room to grow (AND NOWHERE TO GO) But I learned that I was wrong And there was plenty more to know (BEFORE I KNEW IT ALL) So I tried And I failed Again and again But each time I learned Learning never ends So I gave it hell every time But there was always more If there was a darkness You were the light If there was a starkness It'd be redefinied As I age I see myself Looking back on where I've been (AND ALL I DID) And someties it's hard to tell How I got to where I am (AND WHAT LIES AHEAD) But I see How I grew Time and time again And each step And each move Is what I needed then So I'll set my expectations high Within sight And I'll give it hell to get it right Each time If there was a darkness You were the light If there was a starkness It'd be redefinied
4.
Dead Weight 03:00
Looking back on things I did I know that I was wrong But I know the choices made Won't hold me down for long Dead ahead it's never set Until the moment has come and gone I ain't gonna be laid to rest Until I sing my final song Dead Weight Still Coming down on Me Can't Break Free from my haunted dreams I'd fall before the pride would come If I ain't proud of what I've done My consscience weighing down on me And I swear it weighs a ton But I can still let go of My burdens of the past Leave that shit behind me and And there ain't not looking back Dead Weight Still Coming down on Me Can't Break Free from my haunted dreams

We'll be running out of road Long before we're out of time Ain't afraid taking chances NO! Ain't afraid of walking lines By leaps and bounds we'll thrive And make the world our own Before it's our time to die We'll come to claim our fucking thrones We'll push our bodies to the limit Long before we lose our minds Ain't afraid of asking questions NO! Ain't afraid of what we find By leaps and bounds we'll thrive And make the world our own Before it's our time to die We'll come to claim our fucking thrones We'll carve our memories out of stone Long before the memories gone Ain't afraid of what the past can show Ain't afraid of what's to come By leaps and bounds we'll thrive And make the world our own Before it's our time to die We'll come to claim our fucking thrones

Derailed 03:24
Feeling l like a freight train on the run Every mile I shed feels like a ton Coming round' the bend full steam ahead All signs say 'slow' but the brakes are dead I've been derailed before Each time I ware a little more But I always make it back No matter how far I fall from the track Feeling like I lost when I know I've won Like I'm running in a race that's already done Feeling like I'm old when I know I'm young But the night's still dark until I see the sun I've been derailed before Each time I ware a little more But I always make it back No matter how far I fall from the track Yea, I'll always make it back Coming round' the bend full steam ahead All signs say 'slow' but the brakes are dead

I've got something that you wanna see I've got nothing that they wanted to be Felt so right Felt so wrong Hey baby baby when you sing that song Go back To the same ol' town Go back To the place where I've been found Go back To the same ol' town But I ain't going again, till the day I die
8.
Waking up just to walk outside Reintroduced to the real world It's a shame it came to this That it had to end Cause I don't know where to go So used to seeing a place unknown Seeing a city that's grown Well I took my chance I even spent my advance I think I did it all just for fun It doesn't matter where go from here All that matters is the stories you tell Tell em' all, tell em' again Baby boy you can go to hell Some day You'll see me coming round' again But I won't be down I'll be back On that upswing again And you can catch me On the rebound Where I lay my head at night Is where I call my home Every girl that I kissed And every girl that I miss Don't forget what we did alone It's so hard to say goodbye But giving it up for the road is just how it goes So many times I left behind My heart and my soul It doesn't matter where go from here All that matters is the stories you tell Tell em' all, tell em' again Baby boy you can go to hell Some day You'll see me coming round' again But I won't be down I'll be back On that upswing again And you can catch me On the rebound

Emily 01:57
She's my baby, she's my baby girl I pulled in her driveway to pick her up on a Saturday night We looks that could kill, she was dressed to the nines Red high heels and lipstick to match She's breaking my heart, she's breaking my back She's my baby, she's my baby girl Only one I want in the world With the night as young as us we went out to every bar and every club We partied all night until the sun came up Red high heels and lipstick to match I gave her my heart but she wouldn't give it back She's my baby, she's my baby girl Only one I want in the world Time had come when I had to say goodbye Something had changed I knew we wouldn't survive There's distance between us now that wasn't there before She wouldn't wait long, no not forever So I'm hitting the road to try to find another Still it tore my heart in two when I couldn't have you

As Cool AS 02:28
Rock n' roll is what I had to do Hoping that I never lose Close what I hold, dear to my heart But I'm never home so I guess that's a start Well I'm giving up on letting them down God damn baby, what are you singing about Living out of a hotel room Trying to get closer to you Eating of a garbage can Well that's the plan baby I gotta get back out Don't wanna waste my time Head back out Till the end of my days Every time I walk out of my door I'm wondering if I'll run into her Hoping she thinks I'm incredible But now I know it's impossible Well I'm giving up of giving a fuck God damn baby, what are you singing about Living out of a hotel room Trying to get closer to you Eating of a garbage can Well that's the plan baby
11.
Blue Dress 03:10
Any other day on any given night She brings me to my knees with that dress so tight Oh, no I can't get her off my mind I saw her at the bar, took her by the arm Asked her for a dance and it didn't take long Oh, yeah For that dress to come off Living for the lust Is just living for fun Hanging out all night Till the sun comes up Running all around With the streets under our boots Let em' Know Another blue dress and another pretty face I met her downtown but I can't recall the place Oh, man I was high as hell She came up to me, thought it was a dream Asked me to come over and I couldn't believe Oh, please Don't be toying with my heart Living for the lust Is just living for fun Hanging out all night Till the sun comes up Running all around With the streets under our boots Let em' Know
12.
Life on the line and I think I'm getting older Drink in my hand and it's only getting stronger Doesn't matter where we go from here Together we ride, together we die I live my life by a certain code Do what you want and never let go Of the things that make you who you are Never been one to have it all figured out Never been one to question what life's about Because life is what you make of it So I gotta find my heart and soul Hear my song on the radio Find my heart and soul I gotta get up, I gotta wake up And head straight to work Another 9 to 5 to pay check blues Then come home, glued to the tube There's gotta be something more than this Then at the end of the day, drinking a fifth Right about now is the time things turn But knowing me I guess I'll never learn
