Bet you’re the type to live in the moment Open your arms, let someone hold it Always a team, never your opponent You know who you are, you know how to own it I’ve been the kind who wants to control it Open my mind, find out who stole it Life is a dream, I just never know it Cause I’m not the one who lives in the moment But I will try To leave my mind And be in the moment

Baking in the sunlight Smoking in the shade Breaking in the boots on cherry lane and main They’ll be fallin' They’ll be fallin' Fallin' over you Holding up a shotgun Bullet in the sand Aces in the pocket but never hold a hand They’ll be fallin' They’ll be fallin' Fallin' over you Pulling on heartstrings and making this heart sing Pulling on heartstrings and making this heart sing Oh they’ll be Fallin’ They’ll be Fallin Fallin’ Over You Whiskey over water Never need to chase Blazing in the shadows Don’t you ever show your face They’ll be fallin' They’ll be fallin' Fallin' over you No one in the mirror Hiding in the pain Walk into the fire They’ll be shouting out your name Oh they’ll be Fallin’ Oh They’ll be Fallin Fallin’ Over You Keep the faith Stay the course Those neon lights My only torch To saving grace And standing straight You’re shaking at your knees And now I’m on my way Oh they’ll be Fallin’ Oh They’ll be Fallin Fallin’ Over You

Purple Rose 02:13
Back in 2005 girl caught my eye She grabbed a hold of my heart I let the feeling ride I was lost, bitter, and cold inside She drained the hate from my soul Let the devil die So it goes So it goes Then it comes to a close I put a drink in my hand and left a purple rose Back in 2009 I’m going out of my mind Gin and tonic, chronic anything I could buy I wasn’t looking for a bride, just someone for the night But the next thing I know I just gave you my life So it goes So it goes Then it comes to a close I put a drink in my hand and left a purple rose I know I need to breathe But I just wanted to see you And I wanted you to see me too The only thing I need to know The dream I have should I just let it go I know my heart moves fast but I can take it slow If you take this drink from my hands and leave a purple rose

You thought you had a rook To move straight and get a look But she read ya like a book Left him hanging on a hook She was smarter, worked harder and his heart is what she took You thought you had a knight 2 steps up and to the right With the lack of foresight She euthanized him with her sight She was smarter, worked harder and his heart had no fight You thought she saw a king She only saw you as a pawn She had to leave a sting So you would move along But if your heart is still beating There ain’t no checkmate in the siren’s song You thought you had a bishop Just admit you had an angle But you planned too much and missed it Cause your mind got so tangled She was smarter, worked harder and his heart she had to strangle There aint no other queen As far as she can see Just a man run by envy but empty on his strategy She was Smarter worked Harder And his heart she’ll never need Playing it safe is gonna bury your heart leaving your faith is gonna rip you apart Concentrate if you’re really ready to start Cause you’ll never know what you can prove If you never make, if you never make a move Oh, You thought she saw a king She only saw you as a pawn So she had to leave a sting So you would move along But if your heart is still beating There ain’t no check mate in the siren’s song Soon You'll be moving up the board One step at a time of your own accord She won’t take notice, She'll just stay focused Position her pieces, surrounding some new king Soon You'll be at the edge of the board Lifting a king from the ones She has stored Crowned in silence, avoiding the violence till one day she sees you for all you have endured

Key To Life 03:25
Come with me I’ll help you navigate That misery that’s shaping you When the key to life Is stuck in a maze You need to move You need to take Oh Im rolling my eyes at the dark parts of your mind You can wave to the heaven’s and tell you’re old friends goodbye You just need to know that 9 times out of ten I’m gonna be the one that loves you till the end So you won’t need to chase again, again, and again. Come with me I’ll help you separate That heavy weight that you hold on to When the key to life is stuck in a blaze Just let the water move, and ride the wave Yeah you ride the wave You just need to know that 9 times out of ten, I’m gonna be the one that loves you til the end So you won’t need to chase again, again, and again. Oh I’m rolling my eyes at the dark parts of your mind You can wave to the heaven’s and tell you’re old friends goodbye You just need to know that 9 times out of ten I’m gonna be the one that loves you till the end So you won’t need to chase again, again, and again. To that man in the boat, who’s all alone To love you must let go
6.
Lean Into Me 04:14
Don’t you ever stop What your doing Cause I’m getting high Inside the illusion And if were gonna make this work You gotta know that I stand with my heart in the hurt I want you to move right next to me Tell me the truth, could I be a king In the presence of an angel who sings without her wings Lean into me Lean into me I just don’t know if your intent was to tease Or the light that I saw in you was pulling me off the seas But something stopped me, it said you’re not ready And when you sit there, right in front of me With your short stare, sipping your green tea You’re not my enemy, you’re just my manic pixie dream So just lean into me You could have all of me You could have it all honey If you just lean Fromt he shores of the Atlantic I was here to be romantic But you had me in a panic And I can’t understand it Lean into me Lean into me Lean into me You could have all of me Oh you could have it all honey If you just lean into me
7.
Under the tree That you admired A parachute of gold A life inspired You are the opposite of me But I think we share the same dream 2 games were picked Only one was played You read me the rules I sat in a haze You see all of my mistakes Should I know what I need to change? Just give me a beat A little weed And my whiskey neat Ill save you a seat You don’t have to dress up fancy No I won’t be your foe, I can be your friend You know I got you, I got you, I got you till the end And when no one will listen and you aint being heard You can count on me baby, to give you The last word Ironic it was Isolation Well I know it so well Its my occupation And I know a heavy heart won’t charm you And I know my planned attack won’t disarm you You were 5 steps ahead You had me figured out You saw all of my motives You were taking me down Give me a beat A little weed And my whiskey neat Ill save you a seat You don’t have to dress up fancy No I won’t be your foe, I can be your friend You know I got you, I got you, I got you till the end And when no one will listen and you aint being heard You can count on me baby, to give you The last word And when no one will listen and you’re getting concerned You can count on me baby I could always return But I guess thats it Just one last little quip If you never listen You’ll never be heard But you’ll always have The last word
8.
Hold You 03:18
Whenever you start to feel alone and lost When your heart is black from the lines you've crossed Or when you got nothing to live for Just know I will help you, when your feeling insecure Ooo let me be the one to hold you When life has knocked you down And no one in this town wants you around Let the siren sound, I can help you off the ground Don’t let pain invade your brain and don’t you take the blame Or feel ashamed cause all that will remain Is just a shadow behind the name The name Oooo o o o o oo o o o Let me be the one to hold you Let me be the one to hold you thru the night Oh you gotta let me hold you The mind controls your time And if you just rewind your own design Honey you will find that love you left behind Love Love Love Love Let me be the one to hold you Let me be the one to hold you Oooo o o o o oo o o o Let me be the one to hold you Let me be the one to hold you Let me be the one to hold you thru the night

Did we miss the moment cause you we’re freezing cold? Did we miss the moment Cause I was checking my phone? Did we miss the moment Cause you had to go home I know I missed the moment Cause I still feel alone Did we miss the moment Cause I was playing it cool? Did we miss the moment When I was in your room? Did we miss the moment Were you ever looking at me too? I know I missed the moment But could I get one more with you? Little Black heart Beating under my chest I lost my focus You were bringing out the best Little White Flowers All over your dress I got lost in the hours And you were making a mess in my head Did we miss the moment Under the full moon? Did we miss the moment Or is it coming up soon? Did we miss the moment What’s this man to do If he missed the moment and theres none left with you? Little Black heart Beating under my chest I lost all my focus You were bringing out the best Little White Flowers All over your dress I got lost in the hours And you were making a mess in my head Oh Sweet dreams Yeah sweet dreams Oh Sweet dreams Yeah sweet dreams Oh Sweet dreams Yeah sweet dreams Oh Sweet dreams Did we miss the moment?

I have been alone I have stood in the crowd I’ve been a fool Been the wisest in town I have felt shame (You have felt shame) I have felt pride (You have felt pride) I have wanted to live (You've wanted to live) I have wanted to die (You've wanted to die) No matter whatever I do everyday I’m a Fight (You know I’ll fight for you) No matter whatever I do everyday I’m a Fight (You know I’ll fight for you) Oh I’m a fight for you I have felt safe I have needed protection I’ve kissed the most beautiful face And I have faced rejection All of this time that I spent working on myself All of this time that I spent working on myself So I could fight for you Whatever you need I’ll fight everyday Whatever it may be I’ll find a way I’ve been a mess But I’ve held it together I carry too much stress I need to let go of the pressure No matter whatever I do everyday I’m a Fight (You know I’ll fight for you) No matter whatever I do everyday I’m a Fight (You know I’ll fight for you) Oh I’m a fight for you

Want It 04:15
She comes alive at the end of the night Two bottles down of her favorite red wine She’ll come over start knocking down my door She said boy you better let me in cause tonight I’m gonna start a war She want it in the morning Right when your barely awake Want it in the evening Just before you go off to sleep She want it in the morning Right before you start your routine Want it in the evening Right before the sun rises and starts the day She’ll wake me up riding on top of my world In the dream a forbidden love, my life in the heart of the girl You can hear her scream when the sun rises at six Its resonating through all the walls and she want stop until she gets her fix She want it in the morning Right when your barely awake Want it in the evening Just before you go off to sleep She want it in the morning Right before you start your routine Want it in the evening Right before the sun rises and starts the day She looks at me and says how bout a little more If I count it out we had 1,2,3,4 She says that aint enough you gotta make me feel alive So I took that pill and started working on number 5 She want it in the morning Right when your barely awake Want it in the evening Just before you go off to sleep She want it in the morning Right before you start your routine Want it in the evening Right before the sun rises and starts the day

Hold up Just stay right there Hands up Put them in the air Stand up Don’t run My hands up You got me where you want You made your scare Man up, come out If this is how its gonna go Ima be your friend and foe Come on baby knock me down Come on baby knock me down Yeah baby knock me down When the siren sounds I may have a lot to lose but its a lot less than you Hands up Don’t you move Im your officer in blue You got me in the mood Heads up You got me in the cuffs and now I’m pinned and I can’t move Oh but I don’t want to If this is how its gonna go Ima be your friend and foe Come on baby knock me down Come on baby knock me down Yeah baby knock me down When the siren sounds I may have a lot to lose but its a lot less than you Come on baby knock me down Come on baby knock me down Yeah baby knock me down When the siren sounds I may have a lot to lose but its a lot less than you
13.
Envy & Greed 06:12
I knew it was you You didn’t know it was me Subconsciously I didn’t want you to see The real me The deep down and dirty The bad, the good, and the in between Cause all that is in me are these feelings of worry Did I drown myself intentionally? Cause I wanted to envy? I wanted to envy If it wasn’t you And it wasn’t me Then how could we begin to live out some fantasy If its not necessary, and its just too damn scary To place my heart inside two hands that will eventually Squeeze So I look at everyone as my enemy And I know thats my greed I know thats my greed Oh I wanna love I Wanna love Yeah I wanna love I want a love that never ends It was never you It was always me Honestly, I wanted you to see All of me No, really all of me But some voice inside said take it so slowly So I played it cautiously I played it conservatively And I hate the man I am, cause I know theres a better me But he’s stuck in the envy and greed The envy and greed Yeah, the envy and greed Envy and greed Envy and greed
14.
Bet you’re the type to live in the moment Open your arms, let someone hold it Always a team, never your opponent You know who you are, you know how to own it I’ve been the kind who wants to control it Open my mind, find out who stole it Life is a dream, I just never know it Cause I’m not the one who lives in the moment But I will try To leave my mind And be in the moment Bet you’re the one to keep things in line Open your eyes, share them with the blind Always so kind, and so fine Yeah you live one day, at a time But I will try to leave my mind And just for one time, be in the moment
