carry me back
04:10
|

long time no see, sit down and have a drink with me
remember the good times, the days we were young
back when it didn't matter to make the right calls
even our failures used to be fun
raise your glass to the past
so carry be back, to the good old days
it's all in your head, the love remains
take my hand, let's go back in time
no regrets, is easier said than done
god, we used to be so much fun
those years with you were the time of my life
you said, I'm gonna trust you to make the right calls
all things must end, now this is goodbye
raise your glass to the past
so carry be back, to the good old days
it's all in your head, the love remains
take my hand, let's go back in time
no regrets, is easier said than done
all the plans I made, things didn't turn out quite that way
and now here we are and I'm too loaded to speak
I know you said, I'll trust you to make the right calls
I guess you were wrong to put your trust in me
raise your glass to the past
so carry be back, to the good old days
it's all in your head, the love remains
take my hand, let's go back in time
no regrets, is easier said than done
oh we used to be so much fun
and those years with you were the time of my life

a feeling
03:48

gimme a feeling, gimme a light they can't put out
show me your love, slide your tongue into my mouth
gimme a feeling, I need it like air, I'm hungry for life
I'm out in the dark, pull me out bath me in light
gimme a feeling, gimme a light they can't put out
gimme a feeling, gimme a light they can't put out
feel the shadows, hunting like beasts in the dark of the night
show me your love, take me to beats and neon lights
gimme a feeling, shaking my soul like the touch of a ghost
follow your heart, fuck me the way that hurts the most
gimme a feeling, gimme a light they can't put out
gimme a feeling, gimme a light they can't put out
I keep moving on and on, and they can't figure me out
I keep moving, they keep trying
gimme a feeling, gimme a light they can't put out
gimme a feeling, gimme a light they can't put out
gimme your love and a feeling to keep me alive
follow your heart and keep me breathing
I keep moving on and on, and they can't figure me out
I keep moving, they keep trying

you keep me safe
03:32
|

in the dark streets you come into your own
you hunt fiends, kill beasts, you're in the zone
I feel you, I fear you
you pull a little stunt, take a punch, get on your feet
you bring monsters twice your size down to their knees
I want you, I need you
you've figured it out, you're so pro
hey now, I can be your man
put down your gun and take my hand
I know, I know that you're so bold
you keep me safe and the vampires from my door
when the fight gets mean and the challenge intense
you give your life, re-spawn and do it again
I adore you, I love you
you've figured it out, you're so pro
hey now, I can be your man
put down your gun and take my hand
I know, I know that you're so bold
you keep me safe and the vampires from my door
oh baby you're so pro
hey now, I can be your man
put down your gun and take my hand
I know, I know that you're so bold
you keep me safe and the …
hey now, I can be your man
put down your gun and take my hand
I know, I know that you're so bold
you keep me safe and the vampires from my door
… my door
I know, I know that you're so bold
you keep me safe and the vampires from my door
… my door

I'm so well off, got my MBA
everybody cares about what I have to say
the measure of success is the amount of cash
come pop a cork with me, oh do you feel the beat
oh baby shake your hair in slowmo and whip it in my face
move your body stop and go, dance the night away
life's been good I guess, but hey that's not for me to say
my last hurrah
listen to my heart, and hear it failing
I'm making it rain, I'm spending all my money on blow
share my self-hate, be part of the show
but this is my last night, I'm dropping the mic
and for this shred of decency, come baby dance with me
oh baby shake your hair in slowmo and whip it in my face
move your body stop and go, dance the night away
life's been good I guess, but hey that's not for me to say
my last hurrah
oh baby shake your hair in slowmo and whip it in my face
move your body stop and go, dance the night away
life's been good I guess, but hey that's not for me to say
my last hurrah
listen to my heart, and hear it failing
… hear it failing

maybe I care
03:18

drop it now, drop the hammer now
drop it now, drop the hammer now
I've got a twisted mind, I wear my shades in the club
I told you I'm fine, but maybe I'm scared
maybe I'm scared, a little freaked
maybe I care how you feel
slow it down, slow the hammer down
slow it down, slow the hammer down
don't break up with me, I'm better than I lead to believe
if I'm being an ass, it's all just an act
maybe I'm scared, a little freaked
maybe I care how you feel
… how you feel
I've got a twisted mind, I wear my shades in the club
I told you I'm fine, but maybe I'm …
maybe I'm scared, a little freaked
maybe I care how you feel
maybe I'm scared, a little freaked
maybe I care how you feel
… how you feel
I've got a twisted mind, I wear my shades in the club

nothing in life
03:34
|
|||
hop into the car, the night has just begun
I'm still young at heart, I know how to have fun
see the lights, drinks on me, let's go mental
there's no time, there's just love
there's nothing in life I would rather do
I'll never let you heal
finding truth in this, finding truth in that
stay with me, and I'll never let you heal
today was pretty bad, tomorrow will be worse
all the dreams we have are such a lovely curse
lift me up, past and future are in shambles
fool around, all is lost
there's nothing in life I would rather do
I'll never let you heal
finding truth in this, finding truth in that
stay with me, and I'll never let you heal
so this is the part where you and me break up
you never give up, don't you, no you never give up
so this is the part where the whole drama starts
you never give up, don't you, no you never give up
so this is the part where you and me break up
you never give up, don't you, no you never give up
so this is the part where the whole drama starts
I'll never let you go
there's nothing in life I would rather do
I'll never let you heal
finding truth in this, finding truth in that
stay with me, and I'll never let you heal
there's nothing in life I would rather do
I'll never let you heal
finding truth in this, finding truth in that
stay with me, and I'll never let you heal
so this is the part where you and me break up
you never give up, don't you, no you never give up
so this is the part where the whole drama starts
I'll never let you go

backroom spotlight
03:20
|

a little older, a little bit colder
this city is a hateful beast
every year weighs heavy on my shoulders
what I want, I'm nowhere near
is there anyone else, is there anyone like me
I'm looking for love
here I stand
in the backroom spotlight
still hoping for more
I'm biding my time
some dreams survive these neon nights
dark thoughts spawning waking hours
like shotguns blowing holes in my mind
the child in me was overpowered
I've grown hard and so unkind
is there anyone else, is there anyone like me
I'm looking for love
here I stand
in the backroom spotlight
still hoping for more
I'm biding my time
some dreams survive …
is there anyone else, is there anyone like me
I'm looking for love
here I stand
in the backroom spotlight
still hoping for more
I'm biding my time
some dreams survive these neon nights

nightcrawlers
04:44
|

we're freaks, yes we are
we're creatures of the night
we sleep, yes we do
when they walk in sunlight
we tell stories they can hardly bear to hear
and we shoot things that are tough to see
fear and anger keep the show alive
no darkness, no light
cameras on, there's murder to see
we all love a good murder
time to shine, I'm your guiding light
we are all nightcrawlers
we fly through the streets
neon signs and blue lights
no time is our creed
there's no escaping the sunrise
we all started out as decent human beings
but we saw things that you can't unsee
blood and gore keep the show alive
no darkness, no light
cameras on, there's murder to see
we all love a good murder
time to shine, I'm your guiding light
we are all nightcrawlers
cameras on, there's murder to see
we all love a good murder
time to shine, I'm your guiding light
we are all nightcrawlers
cameras on, there's murder to see
we all love a good murder
time to shine, I'm your guiding light
we are all nightcrawlers

the taiko man
03:58
|

(taiko taiko man, taiko taiko onii-chan
taiko taiko man, brother drum, he knows you, man)
so life treats me like a dog, I'm out on the streets
being seen, being free, up in the distance echoes a beat
boom boom boom, like thunder hailing the moon
boom boom boom, shake your hips to the rhythm of doom
and there he plays, the taiko taiko man
he knows my fate, he knows that we're the damned
don't turn away, your own death isn't far
killer and prey are true to what they are
nowhere to run away, the streets are not safe
cold falls the rain, I am not sane
nowhere to run away, the streets are not safe
cold falls the rain, I'm insane
(I'm running away, but I'm still part)
(taiko taiko man, taiko taiko onii-chan
taiko taiko man, brother drum, he knows you, man)
here I go, here I am, still alive, all over again
everything on repeat, something new my heart skips a beat
this is me, this is you, the taiko man he can't be fooled
boom boom boom, shake your hips to the rhythm of doom
nowhere to run away, the streets are not safe
cold falls the rain, I am not sane
nowhere to run away, the streets are not safe
cold falls the rain, I'm insane
(taiko taiko man, taiko taiko onii-chan
taiko taiko man, brother drum, he knows you, man)

where's my fire
03:22
|

where's my fire
got to find it and light it back up
where's my fire
got to find it and ignite the flame
where's my fire
got to find it and light it back up
where's my fire
got to find it and ignite the flame
where's the shy kid singing in the gospel choir
hallelujah praise the lord
where's my love of sound, where's my holy ground
don't know the man I am no more
I'm a superstar
hair and make-up done and off I go
if I've got fame I don't need love
time to give the crowd out there a show
where's my fire
got to find it and light it back up
where's my fire
got to find it and ignite the flame
where's my fire
got to find it and light it back up
where's my fire
got to find it and ignite the flame
where's the poor kid dreaming of the good life
down the river of no name
wanting expensive cars and a trophy wife
a longing raw and still untamed
in the sizzling lights
I can feel how much I've changed the world
this is like any other nights
raise your hands and let my fire emerge
where's my fire
got to find it and light it back up
where's my fire
got to find it and ignite the flame
where's my fire
got to find it and light it back up
where's my fire
got to find it and ignite the flame
where's the heat, back me up
sex and sweat, back me up
I'm a superstar
hair and make-up done and off I go
if I've got fame I don't need love
time to give the crowd out there a show
in the sizzling lights
I can feel how much I've changed the world
this is like any other nights
raise your hands and let the flames emerge
where's my fire
got to find it and light it back up
where's my fire
got to find it and ignite the flame
where's my fire
got to find it and light it back up
where's my fire
got to find it and ignite the flame
where's my soul
got to find it and light it back up
where's my soul
got to find it and ignite the flame
where's my soul
got to find it and light it back up
where's my fire
where's my fire

open your heart
04:50
|
|||
oh are you so alone by your own choice
can you stand the sound of your own voice
I know what it's like not to fit in
so full of remorse, it makes your head spin
I've live my whole life in a shell
at some point they all went and wished me well
I've carefully set up a living hell
and the worst part, I don't even hate myself
open your heart
oh from the shadows the nightmares arise
the darkness engulfs me and I come alive
when I see you I see me ten years ago
full of potential but rotten to the bone
you've lived your whole life under a spell
nothing matters, all will be well
so let me be the first to tell
nothing's guaranteed except you love yourself
open your heart
open your heart and throw your arms around me and kiss me
open your heart and throw your arms around my neck
open your heart and throw your arms around me and kiss me
open your heart and throw your arms around my neck
open your heart and throw your arms around me and kiss me
open your heart and sink your fangs into my neck
with body and soul, what do you feel
I'll help you let got, let's just get real
I'll save you and you'll save me
And together we'll turn into human beings
open your heart
