All the way from Waco to WeHo with the rabbit on a chain
Drove a little slick car to ten bar with the static on her brain
She's a little burner, burner, gonna throw you to the flame
Little ticking time bomb, time bomb, gonna blow us all away
Oh, take the time to waste a moment
Oh, never ask to be forgiven
Sexy was her boyfriend, with no kin, always running from the law
Every other weekend, weekends with his back at her claw
He's a live wire, wire, shooting sparks in the night
He's a gotta higher, higher, with the beat in his sights
Oh, take the time to waste a moment
Oh, face it where the lines are broken
Oh, name a price to all this living
Oh, never ask to be forgiven
Oh, take the time to waste a moment
Oh, face it where the lines are broken
Oh, name a price to all this living
Oh, never ask to be forgiven

Reverend
On the limb cut down in the middle of the night caught in a trap
Cursed by the crown of the wandering man who was never coming back
Stuck on the line spinning all of his time with his back to the throne
With the flash of the round everybody in town said "Leave em alone"
Just like a reverend, like a reverend on the radio
Your heart will never say so
Your heart will never let you go
Just like a reverend, like a reverend on the radio
My heart will never say so
My heart will never let you go
I got caught in the middle of a hurricane fight facing the ground
Beast to the wild with the porcelain smile as it passes around
The truth in the skies from the billowing eyes isn't working on me
Don't you think you gotta give me
Give me something I want
Give me something I need
Just like a reverend, like a reverend on the radio
Your heart will never say so
Your heart will never let you go
Just like a reverend, like a reverend on the radio
My heart will never say so
My heart will never let you go
Just like a reverend, like a reverend on the radio
Your heart will never say so
Your heart will never let you go
Just like a reverend, like a reverend on the radio
My heart will never say so
My heart will never let you go
Just like a reverend, like a reverend on the radio
Your heart will never say so
Your heart will never let you go
Just like a reverend, like a reverend on the radio
My heart will never say so
My heart will never let you go
Cursed by the crown of the wandering man who was never coming back
Stuck on the line spinning all of his time with his back to the throne
With the flash of the round everybody in town said "Leave em alone"
Just like a reverend, like a reverend on the radio
Your heart will never say so
Your heart will never let you go
Just like a reverend, like a reverend on the radio
My heart will never say so
My heart will never let you go
I got caught in the middle of a hurricane fight facing the ground
Beast to the wild with the porcelain smile as it passes around
The truth in the skies from the billowing eyes isn't working on me
Don't you think you gotta give me
Give me something I want
Give me something I need
Just like a reverend, like a reverend on the radio
Your heart will never say so
Your heart will never let you go
Just like a reverend, like a reverend on the radio

Just like a reverend, like a reverend on the radio

Just like a reverend, like a reverend on the radio
My heart will never say so
My heart will never let you go
Just like a reverend, like a reverend on the radio
Your heart will never say so
Your heart will never let you go
Just like a reverend, like a reverend on the radio

Around The World
My corner, you'll find me every day
The boys come out
That's where we like to play
Gonna tag along, I'll set the way
And tried to get high
What price you gonna pay
Been around the world been around the world
The stormy gates and the maiden Pearl
(All around the world all around the world)
(All around the world all around the world)
All around the world all around the world
I lost myself and found a girl
(All around the world all around the world)
Keep dancing, like it's your last time
We're so thin ice, swimming in delight
When the curtain falls, I'm on your scene
"What sweet surprise" she shared to me
Been around the world been around the world
The stormy gates and the maiden Pearl
(All around the world all around the world)
(All around the world all around the world)
All around the world all around the world
I lost myself and found a girl
(All around the world all around the world)
(All around the world all around the world)
Take it all the way, take it all the way
All the way
(All around the world all around the world)
(All around the world all around the world)
All around the world all around the world
I lost myself and found a girl
(All around the world all around the world)
The boys come out
That's where we like to play
Gonna tag along, I'll set the way
And tried to get high
What price you gonna pay
Been around the world been around the world

Find Me
I see you on a western sky
All my best tonight
Out in the dark
You always seem to come my way
Come and take your shape
Out on the stars
I really wanna know your name
See your face, know who you are, who you are
How did ya find me, how did ya find me?
What are you looking for, are you looking for
How did ya find me how did ya find me
Up in the shadow, picking up my load
I'm waiting on the smoke to rise from behind your eyes
Send me away
Follow me into the wild with a twisted smile, I can't escape
Now I got you by my side, all my life, day after day
From the grave
How did ya find me how did ya find me
What are you looking for, are you looking for
How did ya find me how did ya find me
Up in the shadows, picking up my load
I see you under western skies
Behind your eyes
I can escape
From the grave
How did ya find me how did ya find me?
What are you looking for, are you looking for
How did ya find me how did ya find me?
Up in the shadows, what are you looking for
How did ya find me how did ya find me?
All my best tonight
Out in the dark
You always seem to come my way
Come and take your shape
Out on the stars
I really wanna know your name
See your face, know who you are, who you are
How did ya find me, how did ya find me?
What are you looking for, are you looking for
How did ya find me how did ya find me
Up in the shadow, picking up my load
I'm waiting on the smoke to rise from behind your eyes
Send me away
Follow me into the wild with a twisted smile, I can't escape
Now I got you by my side, all my life, day after day
From the grave
How did ya find me how did ya find me
What are you looking for, are you looking for
How did ya find me how did ya find me
Up in the shadows, picking up my load
I see you under western skies
Behind your eyes
I can escape
From the grave
How did ya find me how did ya find me?
What are you looking for, are you looking for
How did ya find me how did ya find me?
Up in the shadows, what are you looking for
How did ya find me how did ya find me?

Over
I see the grass beneath me
I smell the winter sky
And think to myself
Don't pass me by
You dance in strange conditions with strangers of the night
I see you're crazy and so am I
You bled out red and blue
The boys of NYU, they saw you coming from miles away
Nothing is quite as homey, we dive in sunny days
I see you Kenny, you castaway
Oh, don't say it's over
Don't say is over, anymore
Oh, don't say it's over
Don't say it's over, anymore
Bright lights, that made the city
[?] on Christmas eve and all the good times, we've ever seen
The roles we played together
The slaps across my face
My face brings new reason you write the scene
Oh, don't say it's over
Don't say is over anymore
Oh, don't say it's over
Don't say it's over anymore
My angel hovers over
The light comes crashing in
I know it's how this here story ends
I'll hang around forever, until you cut me down
I'm crossed and ready to face the crowd
Oh, don't say it's over
Don't say is over anymore
Oh, don't say it's over
Don't say it's over anymore
I smell the winter sky
And think to myself
Don't pass me by
You dance in strange conditions with strangers of the night
I see you're crazy and so am I
You bled out red and blue
The boys of NYU, they saw you coming from miles away
Nothing is quite as homey, we dive in sunny days
I see you Kenny, you castaway
Oh, don't say it's over
Don't say is over, anymore
Oh, don't say it's over
Don't say it's over, anymore
Bright lights, that made the city
[?] on Christmas eve and all the good times, we've ever seen
The roles we played together
The slaps across my face
My face brings new reason you write the scene
Oh, don't say it's over
Don't say is over anymore
Oh, don't say it's over
Don't say it's over anymore
My angel hovers over
The light comes crashing in
I know it's how this here story ends
I'll hang around forever, until you cut me down

Muchacho
My right hand partner used to working for a living
He take the backseat of all that he was given
He let you rise and take the fall
He was my favorite friend of all
My old muchacho
Love to dress for each occasion
Without that rocket ship
Taking me in the right direction
Those crooked eyes that knew it all
Was my favorite friend of all
He was my favorite friend of all
He's wearing jean on jean
Cut him some slack, Fox
Pressed to the corner of the scene
Just here to take stock
He'll take the chain
He'll take the ball
He was my favorite friend of all
He was my favorite friend of all
He was my favorite friend of all
He take the backseat of all that he was given
He let you rise and take the fall
He was my favorite friend of all
My old muchacho
Love to dress for each occasion
Without that rocket ship
Taking me in the right direction
Those crooked eyes that knew it all
Was my favorite friend of all
He was my favorite friend of all
He's wearing jean on jean
Cut him some slack, Fox
Pressed to the corner of the scene
Just here to take stock
He'll take the chain
He'll take the ball
He was my favorite friend of all
He was my favorite friend of all
He was my favorite friend of all

Conversation Piece
Take me back to California
To those crystal neon signs
The traveling sensation, I'm blinded by the light
There are eyes on every corner
Blow your brains and [?] and smile
Coats of many colors
Flying high up in the sky
Oh won't you come round my way
For some conversation, please
Won't you come round my way
It's a conversation piece
Look at all these shattered faces
They all look so out of place
They've got nothing left to live for
They'll be dead before they wait
I'd love to know just what you're thinking
Tell me what I ought to do
I won't ever leave you lonely
You're the one I'm running to
Get me out of California
Take out there to the blue
We could make it out together
To the places calling you
Won't you come round my way
For some conversation, please
Won't you come round my way
It's a conversation piece
Oh won't you come round my way
For some conversation, please
Oh won't you come round my way
For some conversation, please
Oh, won't you come round my way
It's a conversation piece
To those crystal neon signs
The traveling sensation, I'm blinded by the light
There are eyes on every corner
Blow your brains and [?] and smile
Coats of many colors
Flying high up in the sky
Oh won't you come round my way
For some conversation, please
Won't you come round my way
It's a conversation piece
Look at all these shattered faces
They all look so out of place
They've got nothing left to live for
They'll be dead before they wait
I'd love to know just what you're thinking
Tell me what I ought to do
I won't ever leave you lonely
You're the one I'm running to
Get me out of California
Take out there to the blue
We could make it out together
To the places calling you
Won't you come round my way
For some conversation, please
Won't you come round my way
It's a conversation piece
Oh won't you come round my way
For some conversation, please
Oh won't you come round my way
For some conversation, please
Oh, won't you come round my way
It's a conversation piece

Eyes On You
Out here looking for the good life
Tongue in my cheek and ya back in my knife
I keep pushing through, my eyes right on you
Everyone says you should get away, fast as you can
But I know you'll stay, you never fall behind
It's always on your mind
You're somewhere I wanna go
Nice and swift as we take it slow
Well were on our way
Don't ever hesitate
I'll hide in the dark in the back of your brain
And laugh a little louder as we go insane
No time to waste
I never come too late
If you don't like it
Then try it
If you don't like it
Then try it
Oh, I believe it when I see it
I'll believe it when I see it
You're a misfit and I'm your freak
Dance all night till our knees go weak
We could shut this place down
No one else is around
I try hard to understand
The crush of the world in the palm of your hand
You know we sit just right
Let's run away from the night
If you don't like it
Then try it
If you don't like it
Then try it
Well babe, I believe it when I see it
I'll believe it when I see it
Tongue in your cheek and back in my knife
Out here looking for the good life
Keep on pushing through, I got eyes on you
Baby, you know that we're on our way
Misfit and freak every single day
Sitting ten feet tall
Let's go take it all
If you don't like it
Then try it
If you don't like it
Then try it
I know you can see it, I'll believe it
You can see it, I believe it
We're here for a moment
So let's own it
For a moment, so let's own it
It's here for the taking
Why you waiting?
This good loving is worth making
Tongue in my cheek and ya back in my knife
I keep pushing through, my eyes right on you
Everyone says you should get away, fast as you can
But I know you'll stay, you never fall behind
It's always on your mind
You're somewhere I wanna go
Nice and swift as we take it slow
Well were on our way
Don't ever hesitate
I'll hide in the dark in the back of your brain
And laugh a little louder as we go insane
No time to waste
I never come too late
If you don't like it
Then try it
If you don't like it
Then try it
Oh, I believe it when I see it
I'll believe it when I see it
You're a misfit and I'm your freak
Dance all night till our knees go weak
We could shut this place down
No one else is around
I try hard to understand
The crush of the world in the palm of your hand
You know we sit just right
Let's run away from the night
If you don't like it

Well babe, I believe it when I see it
I'll believe it when I see it

Then try it
If you don't like it

I know you can see it, I'll believe it
You can see it, I believe it
We're here for a moment
So let's own it
For a moment, so let's own it
It's here for the taking
Why you waiting?
This good loving is worth making

Wild
Like in a mainstream melody
Oh, I wanna take you in
If you come around I come a running
Once through the fire again
The weight of the wind is picking up
Every little string is you
Plucked from the vine, ahead of its time
Only if you want me to
Wild, my breath of wonder
Child, running like thunder
Brace for the explosion
Wild is for the open
Spent the night on a riverside
Trying to recall my name
Careful of [?] sinking in
Something hasn't gone insane
The step of the light comes screaming in
Harsh enough to see it through
Something in the air and the water tonight
Rising from the depths of you
Wild, my breath of wonder
Child, running like thunder
Brace for the explosion
Wild is for the open
Wild, my breath of wonder
Child, running like thunder
Brace for the explosion
Wild is for the open
Oh, I wanna take you in
If you come around I come a running
Once through the fire again
The weight of the wind is picking up
Every little string is you
Plucked from the vine, ahead of its time
Only if you want me to
Wild, my breath of wonder
Child, running like thunder
Brace for the explosion
Wild is for the open
Spent the night on a riverside
Trying to recall my name
Careful of [?] sinking in
Something hasn't gone insane
The step of the light comes screaming in
Harsh enough to see it through
Something in the air and the water tonight
Rising from the depths of you
Wild, my breath of wonder
Child, running like thunder
Brace for the explosion
Wild is for the open
Wild, my breath of wonder
Child, running like thunder
Brace for the explosion
Wild is for the open

Walls
I can get there on my own
You can leave me here alone
I'm just tryin' to do what's right
Oh, a man ain't a man unless he's fought the fight
I could never point you out
Waste of space in a faceless crowd
Tell me what I have to say
If you know what's right then you'll walk away
When the walls come down
When the walls come down
When the walls come down
When the walls come down
One by one I'm seein' them fall
Some just don't show up at all
I'm just here to fight the fire
Oh, a man ain't a man unless he has desire
And the walls come down
And the walls come down
When the walls come down
When the walls come down
You tore out my heart
You threw it away
A Western girl with Eastern eyes
Took a wrong turn and found surprise awaits
Now there's nothing in the way
In the way
In the way
In the way
When the walls come down
When the walls come down
When the walls come down
When the walls come down
You tore out my heart
You threw it away
The western girl with Eastern eyes
Took a wrong turn and found surprise awaits
Now there's nothing in the way
In the way
In the way
In the way
You can leave me here alone
I'm just tryin' to do what's right
Oh, a man ain't a man unless he's fought the fight
I could never point you out
Waste of space in a faceless crowd
Tell me what I have to say
If you know what's right then you'll walk away
When the walls come down
When the walls come down
When the walls come down
When the walls come down
One by one I'm seein' them fall
Some just don't show up at all
I'm just here to fight the fire
Oh, a man ain't a man unless he has desire
And the walls come down
And the walls come down
When the walls come down
When the walls come down
You tore out my heart
You threw it away
A Western girl with Eastern eyes
Took a wrong turn and found surprise awaits
Now there's nothing in the way
In the way
In the way
In the way
When the walls come down
When the walls come down
When the walls come down
When the walls come down
You tore out my heart
You threw it away
The western girl with Eastern eyes
Took a wrong turn and found surprise awaits
Now there's nothing in the way
In the way
In the way
In the way
