A Change Of Pace : Prepare the Masses
歌词
1. Prepare the Masses
Prepare the masses, cause this means war
And if it's a fight they want, we'll bring the hell they're looking for
With bullets blazing, the cowards hit the floor
Stand up and fight like men, let God decide who's coming
Now sit back and watch this story unfold
With the fair Juliet and her Romeo
Two young lovers with one heartbeat
In a devoted grave is where they'll sleep
They are the passion in a city of hate
Watching two families quarrel ruining lover's fate,
You are the ones that took your children's lives
See your two martyrs dying in love's true light, light.
Sing me to sleep tonight, sweet Juliet
Two star-crossed lovers marry looking for regrets
By daybreak I'll be gone and searching for your kiss
Leave me a drop of poison waiting on your lips
In every war there will be casualties
Even family members and best friends bleed
Another tally on the body count
So how many more until we're all bled out?
Let's not forget about this tale of love
Replay the story as it's told to us,
Life is precious but worth giving away
For ideals of beauty and better days, days.
Sing me to sleep tonight, sweet Juliet
Two star-crossed lovers marry looking for regrets
By daybreak I'll be gone and searching for your kiss
Leave me a drop of poison waiting on your lips
I'm killing cousins, revenge I seek
In fair Verona, I will lay him down, down to sleep
In desperation, poison becomes
This story's ending in a tomb of lover's trust, trust.
Sing me to sleep tonight, sweet Juliet
Two star-crossed lovers marry looking for regrets
By daybreak I'll be gone and searching for your kiss
Leave me a drop of poison waiting on your lips
2. How To Rape A Country
The beat of war reigns on
Can you hear the sound of marching drums?
Bullets fill the sky
Men kill to show their nation's pride
The smell of death and blood
Hold memories of your loved ones close,
Find hope in pain, my friend,
Brothers in arms until the end.
Slumber sweet with dreams of home,
Hand in hand, don't march alone.
We've got a thirst for your blood
It's pumping through our veins
Wait till the moment's right,
Show no mercy
[x2]
What do we have to fear?
Lock stock let's blow them all away
Then hide yourself in sleep
Hopeful they'll take you in the night,
Eyes bloodshot red and straining,
You'll see the ghost inside their eyes
A country left in tears
Watching their flag burn and die.
Slumber sweet with dreams of home,
Hand in hand, don't march alone.
We've got a thirst for your blood
It's pumping through our veins
Wait till the moment's right,
Show no mercy
[x2]
Dreams of home
We've got a thirst for your blood
(We've got a thirst for your blood)
Wait till the moment's right,
Show no mercy
We've got a thirst for your blood
It's pumping through our veins
Wait till the moment's right,
Show no mercy
[x2]
3. I'm Alive
I'm alive when I'm missing you
I'm heading out for the lone star state and flying over Santa Fe
I'm looking out at a mountain range
I brace myself for the life I made
We're too young at heart
Hoping for one more day
This airport terminal can't see
Everything you mean to me
I'm alive when I'm missing you
I'm alive but too far
I'm alive when I'm missing you
I'm alive but too far from your room
I remember not sleeping
Hold on tight
Come with me
I left my heart on your bed sheets not knowing
What it means to be here, on a plane leaving you
This airport terminal can't see
Everywhere I wish you'd be
I'm alive when I'm missing you
I'm alive but too far
I'm alive when I'm missing you
I'm alive but too far from your room
Girl you can't make me stay
I'm saying what I have to say
Know you were just a phase
A piece of who I am today
Just another checkmark on my list of things that I regret
You're another checkmark on my list of things that I regret
I'm alive when I'm missing you
I'm alive but not missing you
I'm alive and I sleep fine
I'm alive but not missing you
I'm alive and I sleep fine in my own room
4. Shoot from the Hip
Picture perfect
Turned to worthless
Bittersweet, the taste is like ash in my mouth
Love we had it
You're a bad habit
I'm ready to give you up
I give up
Silly me for thinking honesty is something
Given free, I make the rules
And this is how it ends.
Heartbreak baby is half the fun
You bring the bullets, I'll bring the guns
Take ten steps now turn and draw
I shoot from the hip then watch you fall
Heartbreak baby is half the fun
You bring the bullets, I'll bring the guns
Take ten steps now turn and draw
I shoot from the hip then watch you fall
Scenes of passion
Never lasted
Your mistakes are too much to put behind
I am tired
With no desire
To put together things that just fall apart
Silly me for thinking honesty is something
Given free, I make the rules
And this is how it ends.
Heartbreak baby is half the fun
You bring the bullets, I'll bring the guns
Take ten steps now turn and draw
I shoot from the hip then watch you fall
Heartbreak baby is half the fun
You bring the bullets, I'll bring the guns
Take ten steps now turn and draw
I shoot from the hip then watch you fall
Then watch you fall
Silly me for thinking honesty is something
Given free, I make the rules
And this is how it ends.
Heartbreak baby is half the fun
You bring the bullets, I'll bring the guns
Take ten steps now turn and draw
I shoot from the hip then watch you fall
Heartbreak baby is half the fun
You bring the bullets, I'll bring the guns
Take ten steps now turn and draw
I shoot from the hip then watch you fall
5. Weekend Warriors
Weekends are for the warriors
All those late nights walking through front doors at daybreak
Raise all, of the glasses high
This one's to all of us sitting around here on Friday night
I remember eighteen
Hated Mondays
And sitting and staring at the clock dying to get away
Don't look back
And have no regrets
We only got two days and time won't wait for us
I could't ask for a better place to be
This can't last forever
Raise a glass together
Doesn't get much better
No better than
This can't last forever
Raise a glass together
Doesn't get much better
No better than this
I've been to hell and back
All the snow storms
And the bathroom stalls which you pulled me out of
I'll be there
Like you've been there
My word's my bond
Don't stand alone, you can count on me
I could't ask for a better place to be
This can't last forever
Raise a glass together
Doesn't get much better
No better than
This can't last forever
Raise a glass together
Doesn't get much better
No better than this
We fight this fight to stay free
And never say 'never'
If you leave this choice up to me
I'll stay young (stay young) forever
This can't last forever
Raise a glass together
Doesn't get much better
No better than
This can't last forever
Raise a glass together
Doesn't get much better
No better than this
This can't last forever
Raise a glass together
Doesn't get much better
No better than
This can't last forever
Raise a glass together
Doesn't get much better
No better than this
This can't last forever
Raise a glass together
Doesn't get much better
No better than
This can't last forever
Raise a glass together
Doesn't get much better
No better than this
Weekends are for the warriors
6. White Lines and Lipstick
Oh dear could this be true?
It's all lies we've told
The minds of such devilish boys
Your dreams bought and sold
Give me those bright blue eyes
And those lucious lips
I'll sing this song for you
If you shake those hips
And I know that you want it too
Cause I see it, like I see through you
I'm walking that white line
And it's no big surprise I can't sleep anymore
It's just these little pills
That make my dreams feel real and I'm still craving more
This show's come to an end
And now the fun begins
Just step into your skin
And let things unfold
Your body moves me girl
And now you're whispering
Everything I want to hear
A puppet with no strings
And I know that you want it too
Cause I see it, like I see through you
I'm walking that white line
And it's no big surprise I can't sleep anymore
It's just these little pills
That make my dreams feel real and I'm still craving more
I'm walking that white line
And it's no big surprise I can't sleep anymore
It's just these little pills
That make my dreams feel real and I'm still craving more (I'm still craving more)
7. A Song the World Can Sing Out Loud
I won't buy a word you sold me
I'm going places you never dreamed about
So tired of stupid stories
I'll write a song the world can sing aloud
We'll break the mold they gave us
We're going places they never dreamed about
Jump in and join the chorus
We're writing songs the world can
Shout out loud
Lend me your voice, sing it
Louder, I can't hear it
Lend me your voice, sing it
Louder, I can't hear it
I'm looking back on all those long days
When I was just a kid without a care
You asked what could I have to say
And I replied, "you're listening to it here"
Flashbacks are force of habit
When we were just some kids without a care
The living room we used to practice
The songs that you're listening
To right here
Lend me your voice, sing it
Louder, I can't hear it
Lend me your voice, sing it
Louder, I can't hear it
My head's a mess it's waiting to unfold
My head's a mess I'm waiting to unfold
Would you listen to me?
Would you listen to me?
My head's a mess it's waiting to unfold
My head's a mess I'm waiting to unfold
Would you listen to me?
Would you listen to me?
Lend me your voice, sing it
Louder, I can't hear it
Lend me your voice, sing it
Louder, I can't hear it
Lend me your voice sing it
8. Take Care
I'm chasing time
Looking for a beat
Open your eyes
And repeat after me
You try so hard to find a rhythm in your heartbeat
The less you know the more you want
To try to justify the secrets of your lifetime
In the end he'll come for us
So take care of you and I'll take care of me
We're just lonely hearts looking for melodies
Take care of you and I'll take care of me
We're just lonely hearts looking for melodies
Break to break it down
Will I find clarity
On a hotel floor
When I fall asleep
You try so hard to find a rhythm in your heartbeat
The less you know the more you want
To try to justify the secrets of your lifetime
In the end he'll come for us
So take care of you and I'll take care of me
We're just lonely hearts looking for melodies
Take care of you and I'll take care of me
We're just lonely hearts looking for melodies
I'm looking for a safe way out
Cause I am in the habit of breaking young girls' hearts
I've been looking for a safe way out (safe way out)
Cause I am in the habit of breaking young girls' hearts
I've been looking for a safe way out (safe way out)
Cause I am in the habit of breaking young girls' hearts
You try so hard to find a rhythm in your heartbeat
The less you know the more you want
To try to justify the secrets of your lifetime
In the end he'll come for us
So take care of you and I'll take care of me
We're just lonely hearts looking for melodies
Take care of you and I'll take care of me
We're just lonely hearts looking for melodies
I've been looking for a safe way out (safe way out)
(cause I'm in the habit of breaking hearts)
(I've been looking for a safe way out)
Open your eyes
9. War In Your Bedroom
It's a war in your bedroom baby
I'd cut off my tongue for just a taste
Of a piece of your flesh my darling
I've got no time to hesitate
The bathroom's fogging up with our heartbeats
Sweat for me
I want your nails scrapping down the back of my neck
I've got a burning in my chest, it's calling for your thighs
This is me and you, you and me for the first time
I've been waiting
You've been dreaming of everything I'm talking about
It's a war in your bedroom baby
I'd cut off my tongue for just a taste
Of a piece of your flesh my darling
I've got no time to hesitate
It's a war in your bedroom baby
I'd cut off my tongue for just a taste
Of a piece of your flesh my darling
I've got no time to hesitate
I've got a picture perfect memory under the covers
I'll say exactly what you wanna hear
I'll make you scream
There's not a drop of your innocence when you shiver
Don't go love, stay all night
Now you're mine
I've been waiting
You've been dreaming of everything I'm talking about
It's a war in your bedroom baby
I'd cut off my tongue for just a taste
Of a piece of your flesh my darling
I've got no time to hesitate
It's a war in your bedroom baby
I'd cut off my tongue for just a taste
Of a piece of your flesh my darling
I've got no time to hesitate
(Sex is everywhere) Sex is everywhere
(Sex is everywhere) Sex is everywhere
It's you and me
It's you to me
(Sex is everywhere) Sex is everywhere
(Sex is everywhere) Sex is everywhere
It's you and me
It's you to me
(Sex is everywhere) Sex is everywhere
(Sex is everywhere) Sex is everywhere
It's you and me
It's you to me
It's a war in your bedroom
It's a war in your bedroom
It's a war in your bedroom baby
I'd cut off my tongue for just a taste
Of a piece of your flesh my darling
I've got no time to hesitate
It's a war in your bedroom baby
I'd cut off my tongue for just a taste
Of a piece of your flesh my darling
I've got no time to hesitate
10. I Wanna Be Your Rock & Roll
Now everybody put on your dance shoes
It's time we all got footloose
Just follow me
I'm making time to cut up the floor
It's in your eyes and I want so much more
That you're not giving
You're shaking this poor boy's world
Just put him out of his misery
Take me for a ride through devious eyes
And when I wake up tomorrow
These bed sheets tell lies no words can disguise
And I don't wanna wake up at all
Wake Up!
We're all sweating to the oldies now
The King's back for a night on the town
One thing on mind
Oh no I fell into your trance again
Your eyes are digging through my skin
And I want more
You're breaking this poor boy's mind
Just put him out of his misery
Take me for a ride through devious eyes
And when I wake up tomorrow
These bed sheets tell lies no words can disguise
And I don't wanna wake up at all
I wanna be your rock and roll for old time's sake
I know I said I hate those lies
But they're what keeps me coming back
I wanna be your rock and roll for old time's sake
I know I said I hate those lies
But they're what keeps me coming back
I wanna be your rock and roll for old time's sake
I know I said I hate those lies
But they're what keeps me coming back
Take me for a ride through devious eyes
And when I wake up tomorrow
Take me for a ride through devious eyes
And when I wake up tomorrow
These bed sheets tell lies no words can disguise
And I don't wanna wake up at all
Wake Up!
11. Recipe for Disaster
To all those listening, this is my story
About a confused girl and a boy that's boring
Silly how look can be, stupid and awkward
But you leaving can't make things much better
So she'll run away from the problems
She knows distance can't make hearts fonder
Five more days and counting before you start packing
Can you give me three good reasons why we can't get back to square one
"It's ok," you'll tell me to my face, stop lying
Every three or four tries
And now five days are gone
I've got a recipe, it's for disaster
Because that's all I see in my near future
She's got the blond hair, but not the blue eyes
I've got the right girl, but at the wrong time
I've seen better days, maybe even weeks
When I think of you, you're thinking of me
Five more days and counting before you start packing
Can you give me three good reasons why we can't get back to square one
"It's ok," you'll tell me to my face, stop lying
Every three or four tries
And now five days are gone
And you said you'd always come back
So where are you now?
I'm not ready for the letdown
Will you be right back?
And you said you'd always come back
So where are you now?
I'm not ready for the letdown
Will you be right back?
I've seen better days, maybe even weeks
When I think of you, you're thinking of me
Five more days and counting before you start packing
Can you give me three good reasons why we can't get back to square one
"It's ok," you'll tell me to my face, stop lying
Every three or four tries
And now five days are gone
12. Safe and Sound in Phone Lines
I found out what I've been missing
You are enough to keep me wondering through the nights that I've spent
Alone
Alone
In hotels we are only voices
Kept safe and sound in phone lines
The distance makes the stronger weaken
So many days we'll never know
Well don't give away what we've, tried so hard to keep
All things aside
I will be enough for you
Afraid or not
I will be enough for you
When I am gone
I will be enough for you
All things aside
I will be enough
The road we take will be the long one
So hold on tight, don't leave me
Take my hand, I'll bring you safely
To home
Your home
Across the country this I promise
I'll be back to take you on a trip to sunny, sandy beaches
But first we've gotta meet halfway
Don't throw away love we've, worked so hard to make
All things aside
I will be enough for you
Afraid or not
I will be enough for you
When I am gone
I will be enough for you
All things aside
I will be enough
So don't worry about time
It's not on our side
It never was before
Just forget about time
It's not on our side
That's never stopped us before, before
All things aside
Will I be enough for you?
Afraid or not
I will be enough
All things aside
I will be enough for you
Afraid or not
I will be enough for you
When I am gone
I will be enough for you
All things aside
I will be enough for...
