1. ALWAYS THE PRETENDERS

Maybe we forced the deal to live in some kind of blow
Maybe we broke the seal,
Cracks begin to show
Maybe we crossed the line, got everything of the ground
Maybe we lit the fuse, a habit hard to lose

All I can remember, all I can recall is you
Telling me there's been an, accident
Always the pretenders, always thought that love would do
Every day I miss your, innocence

Maybe we ran the lights, somehow we caused a scene
Maybe we learn to fight, as part of our routine
Maybe we jumped the wall, suddenly tipped the scale
Maybe we tried to hard, so afraid to fail

All I can remember, all I can recall is you
Telling me there's been an, accident
Always the pretenders, always thought that love would do
Every day I miss your, innocence

Something's lost and what its worth
You and me this is our church
There is still some love 'round here

All I can remember, all I can recall is you
Telling me there's been an, accident
Always the pretenders, always thought that love would do
Every day I miss your, innocence

3. FLAMES

The pressure is mounting,
I'm ready and countin'
There's something I've got to be

I'm fearless, I'm feeling
Scared senseless, who needs this,
Still something I've got to be

There is no going back, this is what we know
We come to entertain, asking you to follow
Be born to self-destruct, here it comes again
A desire to go down in flames

My heart's racing, my legs shakin',
Is more drama in the making
I had a feeling this day would come

So are we really good or just delirious,
But if you stop us now it could get serious
I'm sorry, mama, for what I've become

There is no going back, this is what we know
We come to entertain, asking you to follow
Be born to self-destruct, here it comes again
A desire to go down in flames

You can turn it off, but it never stops,
Madness or not, I risk everything I've got
And if I've got to do it all over again
I'd still believe in these friends
And the mess they get me in

There is no going back, this is what we know
We come to entertain, asking you to follow
Be born to self-destruct, here it comes again
A desire to go down in flames

Flames... Flames...


4. SUPERSTITIOUS

Keep on walkin' that road and I'll follow
Keep on callin' my name I'll be there
And if a mirror should break it's easy to take
Cause deep down I know that you care
I'm not superstitious

I'm not superstitious, I have no doubt
That there's a reason, how things turn out
While things are changin' from day to day
I'll keep this feelin' with me all the way

And I want you to know
That you're on my mind
Every day, all of the time

So keep on walkin' that road and I'll follow
Keep on callin' my name I'll be there
And if a mirror should break it's easy to take
Cause deep down I know that you care
I'm not superstitious

There might be times of wonder
When I'm on my own
Tryin' to find out if love has gone
It might make a difference
It might bring me down
But no superstition is gonna turn things around

And I want you to know
That you're on my mind
Every day, all of the time

So keep on walkin' that road and I'll follow
Keep on callin' my name I'll be there
And if a mirror should break it's easy to take
Cause deep down I know that you care
I'm not superstitious

So keep on walkin' and we'll make things right
Yeah, keep on dreamin' each and every night
We're gonna make it, that's what we'll do
Right to the end girl, we're gonna walk on through

So keep on walkin' that road and I'll follow
Keep on callin' my name I'll be there
And if a mirror should break it's easy to take
Cause deep down I know that you care
I'm not superstitious
