Pour Out ya Heart 04:46

POUR OUT YA HEART Oh well I've been trying to find The secret door locked in your mind And I know you've been knocking to try to break into mine too Now if we could only agree To stash each other a key I bet the rest would come perfectly naturally just wait and see Wait and see Well ya happy to pour out ya heart for the world to see Yeah so come and pour that little heart out here to me So where do we go from here Can we surrender please my dear Then we can cut to the chase and abolish any inner fears I crave for you to be near And for you to want me to be here So can we lay it all out on the line and maybe shed a tear A tear with me Well ya happy to pour out ya heart for the world to see Yeah so come and pour that little heart out here to me Yeah ya happy to pour out ya heart for the world to see So come and pour ya little heart out right here to me It's good to finally see A happy future for you and me And all that's left to be done is for us to open up and be free

Oblivion 04:14

OBLIVION Where there's smoke there's fire Yeah and I don't mind if I get burnt when ya turn me on Mercury rising higher thought I could take it Until ya blew me to oblivion Do yourself up, brush yourself down People ain't seen nothin' like you in this town Hey, you're over the top for a grocery shop People gonna talk if you wear that around And the preacher won't mention the sexual tension Guys and girls alike flock for your attention You shake and you turn and you smoke and you burn There's gonna be trouble announcing you're mine Cos looking like that around here is a crime What the hell have I got myself into this time Breaking all the hearts one by one And you never take a breath until they're all done, no It's all just a game when they ask for your name Then they get a lot more than they bargained on Hey, every single eye wants to make connection Little do they know of your cruel intention You shake and you turn and you smoke and you burn (Damn baby, you've got every eye in this town burning holes through those legs You'd better think about toning it down a little during the daytime) Thought I could make it in oblivion

ANGIE Oh hey hello is anybody home, everyone's up & disappeared Break into a song cherry bomb, yeah come and get it on I've been waiting for a million years Oh but then I had a dream or so it seemed it turned me inside out A change of scene a beauty queen, where have you been hiding out Yo take it slow does anybody know just how long we'll be waiting here Crack as little smile, it's ya style, kick back and stay a while Just be happy stuck in second gear Oh but then I had a dream I heard you scream and rushed to help you out We came undone but you're the one I couldn't live without Angie, no nothin’s sacred in my mind Cos Angie, you see straight through me every time Awake or asleep, I doubt I could keep (2. no way could I keep) This secret safe inside If I could have one wish, I'd wish to stay with you tonight Go with the flow, relax and steal the show You're the centre of the atmosphere Made the moment last, had a blast with such a touch o' class Had em swingin' from the chandeliers Then I had a dream the closing scene was written about us The pictures faded into grey, & the words turned into dust Angie, no nothin’s sacred in my mind Cos Angie, you see straight through me every time Awake or asleep, no way could I keep This secret safe inside If I could have one wish, I'd wish to stay with you tonight Oh Angie it looks like I'll be all yours tonight So shrug that shiver & strike that shimmering candlelight Oh Angie it looks like you'll be all mine tonight Because I've made my wish And wish to stay with you tonight Oh Angie

Animal4 I'm mother nature's child, I went a little wild And I was banished and so I vanished You're lonely too, that's why I'm here for you So let's get flirty & hot & dirty Cos I'm your animal, & I'm insatiable I got the passion to please, I got the purest disease I'll be your casual habitual animal I can scare off ya fleas and wear the fur off ya knees I'm telling you I'm your animal if you please They call me nature's whore of the forest floor I take it easy, naked and sleazy If you want more then what you waiting for Do I make ya queasy and feel uneasy (Ch...) And we're compatible cos you're an animal I got the temper to tease, you got the goodies to squeeze And I'm telling you I'm your animal if you please

DON'T BELIEVE IN LOVE I believe in almost anything, even God above But when push comes to shove baby I don't believe in love I'll follow you into the desert Knowing well there's no water there I'll follow you down to the streets at night I'm ready to fight to help you take your share I'll follow you over the mountain Not knowing what's over there I'll walk beside you out into the sea Just to live your dream and make my worst nightmare Oh but there's just one thing I can't see through with you One thing just gets me so confused, oh I can believe in your Heaven above And I can conceive of the God you speak of But I don't believe in that thing you call love That one thing will be the death of us I can believe in a forty day flood And I can have faith in the leaf from a dove But I don't believe in that thing you call love One thing's for sure, it's gonna take us all down Oh yeah, it's gonna take us down Hey when push comes to shove baby, I don't belive in love I'll follow you into the sunset And stare directly into the glare I'll follow you down to the pits of hell Just to prove to you that I'll take that dare I'll follow you into a death trap And hold my chin high into the air And walk beside you in confidence That where we need to be I know you'll get us there Take cover from your lover Don't evolve just rediscover Take solace in another Hide from love cos loves a mother Take us all down, take us all down Baby, I don’t believe in love

Feel Alive Again 05:46

FEEL ALIVE AGAIN Soft skin starts to crawl when the boss says do it again Two faced know it all hits her up every now and then Groundhog day once again, will the weekend ever arrive Can't help dreamin’ o' when she'll finally feel alive, alive again And she’ll be kicking up her heels on the dance floor Yeah she saves it up for a Saturday night And she shies away from too much attention Cos she doesn't wanna cause a fuss or a fight She's shy but she's cool and she won't suffer fools She says she'll never belong to no man And she's sly and she's cruel and she bends all the rules To get away with anything she can Sounds like duty calls, he's throwing his weight round again Does no favour at all for a blique opinion of men Tuesday 9am depressions keeping it real Demon screamin' within tellin' her that she'll never feel alive again Determined to win, that devillish grin That gets her through all situations yeah The confidence stance, inquisitive glance That hypnotic sophistication yeah The fire in her eyes that penetrates lies She'll cut you without hesitation and A true independence reliant on none Looks after number one

LEAD ME TO SHELTER Picture your darkest nightmare Trapped in a world that you don't know I picture you in paradise girl But I can't seem to let you go Been workin' hard to make life easy Losing you takes me back to the start I used to love it every time you tease me But now we're over it's tearing me apart Picture a lonely future, you've lost the only love you've known You're at the fork of a foggy footpath, without a clue which way to go Been workin' hard to make life easy Losing you takes me back to the start I used to love it every time you tease me But now we're over it's tearing me apart Don't shoot I surrender Take pity on the fool flying his white flag Please try to remember The good times we had far outweigh the bad Too bad we were just a fad Somebody lead me to shelter I'm sick of standin' in pouring rain Somebody lead me to shelter Oh I'm slowly going insane I don't wanna go there again I'm slowly going insane Don't leave me out in the rain

MERCY I'm falling down on my knees Straight from the heart Please have mercy on me Come now look what they've done to me A shadow of what I once used to be They took me out, I scream and shout I lived in fear but never doubt I know my place, eternal grace And I can still feel when the sun’s on my face I sit perfectly still when the world's in a race And I pray it's my time to shine Daydreams polluted with anarchy And demons collude in my fantasies They stole my name, they stole my place They stole the smile right off my face But I was blessed with eternal grace And I can still heel when the sun burns my face And I know in my heart I've been promised a place And it helps me to soldier on I cherish the promise you made to me Settin’ me free I'm waiting here patiently Believing you'll be here for me

When I'm Gone 04:50
lyrics

WHEN I'M GONE Well I got round to wondering if my children read about me Well would they be proud or be ashamed of me And what would be my legacy, the destiny I hand-me-down Regardless of the things that crowned me when I sinned they were wrong Now I'm shining on so my stories are all good when I'm gone And now I'm onto wondering is it all to late to remedy And if I think out loud will they listen or ignore me And has the damage all be done And will the memories keep haunting me Yeah so I'm shining on so my stories are all good when I'm gone When I'm gone I want them to remember me As a peaceful man, a humble man A dad that loves them unconditionally A dad that wants for them, all the things they've ever dreamed However unreal they seem, it all seems real to me And on that day I fall that old picture on the wall Will keep them smiling up to me And I'll be glad that I'm the proudest dad that they have ever seen But still my bleeding heart it's tearing me apart When I can't see them smiling back at me I'm on my knees, but still my bleeding heart Take me right back to the start Where I can see them smiling back at me Well I'm shining on so my stories are all good when I'm gone
