1. LIGHTS OUT

LIGHTS OUT!
What is it that we could say
That would change your outlook on being brave
I never thought you'd be like this
You'd rather take a chance on a chance to miss
A life that speaks of a never-ending truth
And the words we say will remain in you
As long as we can sing we'll sing for you

Don't wait for tomorrow, raise your voice tonight! (Hey! Hey!)
This hate is burning so let's watch it die
Cause when it falls, our voice will ring so loud (Hey! Hey!)
Don't wait for tomorrow just raise your voice tonight...
LIGHTS OUT! LIGHTS OUT!

Huh!

It's you that makes the choice to stay
(Cause when it comes, it's gonna come just like a...)
And You'll be far from me to decide
(You never said you would I know, but I'm begging you this time please!)
A life that speaks of a never-ending truth
And the words we say will remain in you
As long as we can sing we'll sing for you

Don't wait for tomorrow, raise your voice tonight! (Hey! Hey!)
This hate is burning so let's watch it die
Cause when it falls, our voice will ring so loud (Hey! Hey!)
Don't wait for tomorrow just raise your voice tonight...
Guitar! That's right! Oh baby! Ohhhh!

Don't wait for tomorrow just raise your voice tonight!(Hey! Hey!)
This hate is burning so let's watch it die
Cause when it falls, our voice will ring so loud (Hey! Hey!)
Don't wait for tomorrow just raise your voice tonight...
LIGHTS OUT!

I hope you're ready for this...HUH!


2. DON'T BELIEVE

You know it's sick,
to think that you would know that I
I could save you,
cause I can't save.
G-g-g-g-g-got to get it right
Let's make sure this time that tonight,
I could save you,
or I could break you.

Don't believe in me,
Don't believe in me,
cause I will let you down, cause I will let you
Don't believe in me,
Don't believe in me,
cause I will let you down, cause I will let you

This is about, this is about to show,
how much I love you,
If you'll let me show.
G-g-g-g-g-got to get it right
Let's make sure this time that tonight,
I could save you,
or I could break you.

Don't believe in me,
Don't believe in me,
cause I will let you down, cause I will let you
Don't believe in me,
Don't believe in me,
cause I will let you down, cause I will let you

Watch out!
Huh Huh Huh Huh Huh Huh!
Play that song.
Play it loud.

Don't believe in me,
Don't believe in me,
cause I will let you down, cause I will let you

Don't believe in me,
Don't believe in me,
cause I will let you down, cause I will let you
Don't believe in me,
Don't believe in me,
cause I will let you down, cause I will let you


3. WHATEVER IT TAKES

The sun will rise again
breaking through the clouds
and this is our way out
Oh doctor, doctor, can you feel the light attack,
cause it's been pushing on my back
and it screams so loud

I'll listen for the sentiment,
you listen for the sound
Whatever it takes, we won't know until we meet again
Whatever it takes, we won't know until we meet again

The boys will ride again
running gun in hand
we'll make it back alright
Oh doctor, doctor, you did wonders with my sight,
cause I've been looking up all night
and I can hear them start to fight.

I'll listen for the sentiment
you listen for the sound
Whatever it takes, we won't know until we meet again
Whatever it takes, we won't know until we meet again

And so I'll wait for the rising sun and so I'll wait,
I'LL WAIT!

I'll listen for the sentiment
you listen for the sound
Whatever it takes, we won't know until we meet again.


4. BRAND NEW MAN

We're taking off, so be aware.
We're watching out for them to clear.
And common sense is a comment that
Breaks the silence of defense.
So bear it now, It won't last long,
Just to save you from his charm.

I can't complain, I just walked away,
And took more steps towards being safe.

Baby, you just bought yourself a brand new man, a brand new man.
Baby, you just bought yourself a brand new man, a brand new man.

Its changing up, the clothes you wear,
And watching out for them to stare.
The common man, and his promise that
Breaks the silence of your plan.
He's so caring now, but it won't last long.
Just to please you from the start.

I can't complain, I just walked away,
And took more steps towards being safe!

Baby, you just bought yourself a brand new man, a brand new man.
Baby, you just bought yourself a brand new man, a brand new man.

She was always standing there, she was always standing there,
She was always standing there. Ohhh.
She was always standing there, she was always standing there,
She was always standing there. Ohhh.
“I can't believe this would happen to me”
I never told you to settle for sex or…

Baby, you just bought yourself a brand new man, a brand new man.
Baby, you just bought yourself a brand new man, a brand new man.


5. CLOCK IS DOWN

The clock is down
and I am losing one day at a time,
well who'd have thought
our hands would stop right here

Maybe I could still forget you
for just a little while
cause everything you said
is coming back in time

Maybe I
should say goodbye

I'd like to run away
I'd like to say a few things to you,
About the way I feel inside
I'd like to run away
I'd like to say a few things to you,
About the way I feel inside

the clock is down
and I am losing
one day at a time,
I still remember the first time you were here
and every time I see your picture
I thank god for a smile
cause everything you said
is keeping me in line

Maybe I
should say goodbye

I'd like to run away
I'd like to say a few things to you,
About the way I feel inside
I'd like to run away
I'd like to say a few things to you,
About the way I feel inside

The last signs will never stop him
The last signs will never stop him
The last signs will never stop him
The last signs will never stop him
The last signs will never stop him
I tried to fake it, but I couldn't hold it in.
The last signs will never stop him
I couldn't hold it, I couldn't hold it in

Maybe I
Should say goodbye

I'd like to run away
I'd like to say a few things to you,
About the way I feel inside
I'd like to run away
I'd like to say a few things to you,
About the way I feel inside


6. TIME MARCHES ON

I never said you meant that much to me
I cared a little but you wouldn't believe
I never would pay what you want me to
Well now I can.

I'll make this quick because I never got my fix
and I miss you

When time marches on
Take me now
For all I am
No matter what I've said
time marches on
Take me now
For all I am
No matter what I've said
time marches on

I never meant to run when you came for me
I just got scared because I didn't believe
So catch me if you can, I'll be needing you to
well now you can

So make this quick because I never got my fix
And I miss you

When time marches on
Take me now
For all I am
No matter what I've said
time marches on
Take me now
For all I am
No matter what I've said
time marches on

And make this quick because I never got my fix
And I miss you.

When time marches on
Take me now
For all I am
No matter what I said
Time marches on
Take me now
For all I am
No matter what I've said
Time marches on


7. CARRY YOU

Well c'mon!

You're thinking that's the price you pay,
For waking up a little late.
I got a chance and danced away.

I'm sick of trying to find a way (Right now!)
And running out of words to say (Right now!)
I got 20 years to pass away (Right now!)

I know, my son;
Let me carry you.
…What I say?

I know, my son;
Let me carry you.
…What I say?
Ha-ha, woo

You're thinking that's the price you pay.
You took it back another way.
I complicate it back to me.

I'm sick and tired of things I say. (Right now!)
I'm sick and tired of all this weight, (Right now!)
I need the pressure pressed away. (Right now!)

I know, my son;
Let me carry you.
…What I say?

I know, my son;
Let me carry you.
…What I say?

I know, my son;
Let me carry you.
…What I say?

I know, my son;
Let me carry you.
…What I say? Alright

I know you like to pass it on
Well here's a chance I found
Alright

That is well

Woo

You're thinking that's the price you pay


8. HOLD MY HEART PT.2

I woke up lost inside my fears
From all the things I've done this year
And everything I said that hurt you time and again
You spoke it soft into my ear
All the words I want to hear
And this time I'll make sure you get ‘em back alright
Remember when you said you'd hold my heart instead
I'm letting you know now, go ahead
Ahhhhhhhhh
Ohhhhhhhhh
Ahhhhhhhhh
Ohhhhhhhhh
Remember when you said you'd hold my heart instead
I'm letting you know now, go ahead


9. WHEN YOU'RE AWAY

Something seems to change
When I know you're by my side
I start to feel a rain
And it pours until I feel alive
Record these notes
Make no mistakes
Cause some days
I've come to find
No words to say when you're away
When you're away
So listen to the sound my heart makes
When you're away
When you're away
I miss you everyday
Even more with every phone call home
I've tried to speak your name
But it never even feels the same
So I look around and sing my songs
Cause some days
I've come to find
No words to say when you're away
When you're away
So listen to the sound my heart makes
When you're away
When you're away
Ahhh, ahhh, ahhhh, ahhhh
Ahhh, ahhh, ahhhh, ahhhh
Ahhh, ahhh, ahhhh, ahhhh
Ahhh, ahhh, ahhhh, ahhhh
I've come to find
No words to say when you're away
When you're away
So listen to the sound my heart makes
When you're away
When you're away


10. RADIO UP

Turn the radio up and we'll sing
A song to bring you back
Turn the radio up and we'll sing
A song!

Turn the radio up and we'll sing
A song to bring you back
Turn the radio up and we'll sing
A song!

(More than me)
You never could believe,
(There's more than me) Here comes the sad part
Just making sure that you can see

Something's right
Something's better off
Without you

A song!

Check the volume of your heartbeat
Make sure it's loud as your last
Why don't you just hold on to this,
You're, you're missing the point.

(More than me)
You never could believe,
(There's more than me) Here comes the sad part
I'm just making sure that you can see

Something's right
Something's better off
Without you

Something's right
Something's better off
Without you

We could be better now
We could be better now
We could be better now (Now you could believe)
We could be better now (Now you're gone)
We could be better now (Now you could believe)
We could be better now (Now you're gone)

Something's right
Something's better off
Without you

Something's right
Something's better off
Without you

Turn the radio up and we'll sing (Something's right)
A song to bring you back (Something's better off)
Turn the radio up and we'll sing (Without you)
A song, a song

Turn the radio up and we'll sing
A song to bring you back
Turn the radio up and we'll sing
A song!


11. SHOT TO THE CHEST

Well, here comes a test
A fight until death,
A song without a rest,
I won't complain,
It's what I asked for.

I'll ask for your hand,
It's a long road ahead,
And I feel so alone.

And I hope this takes care of broken words.
I'm broken down you know,
I hope this makes you proud,
To write this down,
It's better than the rest,
To see you smile.

Hey! Whoa!
(I hope this makes you proud)
Hey! Whoa!
(I hope this makes you proud)

Well, here comes a test,
It's shooting for my head.
Along with all the rest.
I can't compete with what I ask for,

I'll ask for your hand,
Cause it's a long road ahead,
And I feel so alone.

And I hope this takes care of broken words.
I'm broken down you know,
I hope this makes you proud,
To write this down,
It's better than the rest,
To see you smile.

Hey! Whoa!
(I hope this makes you proud)
Hey! Whoa!
(I hope this makes you proud)

If you fall asleep, fall asleep in the back room.

Hey! Whoa!
I hope this makes you proud.
Hey! Whoa!
I hope this makes you proud.
Hey! Whoa!
I hope this makes you proud.


12. HOLD MY HEART PT.1

Just forget about it, anything I said about it.
Drive away tonight, you think it's fine.
You put it all inside and run and never look behind.
It's all the same besides the fact that it's mine.
Think of me when you're dreaming and know,
I'm wide awake and thinking of you.
Cause I swear when you're there alone,
Know that I'm wide awake tonight..
[x2]

You could hold my heart.
It's all yours if you want.

Just forget about it. Set your mark and keep around it.
Thoughts that are just the opposite of you.
It happens everytime you fall,
You write it off as you were all, "Well I'll be fine just let me try too."
And sing to me when you're sinking,
And you know I'm wide awake and watching for you.
Cause I swear when you're there alone,
Know that I'm wide awake tonight.

You could hold my heart.
It's all yours if you want.

I'm letting you know now
I'm letting you know now
[...continues in the background]
Don't wait...just tell me all about it [x3]
Don't wait, don't wait
Don't wait...just tell me all about it [x3]
Don't wait, don't wait

Don't wait...just tell me all about it [x2]
