Tracks



01. Skin On Skin

Ok here I am
I stand before you now
Where shall we begin?
Say you want it now

Cry, Cry
Yeah when you pull me in
High so high
My skin on your skin

Don't hide yourself away
I'm gonna take you today
Trust me don't have no doubt
I'll make you scream and shout

We can play for hours
As long as we can dare
Nothing can stop me now
Oh let me take you there

Cry, Cry
Yeah when you pull me in
High so high
My skin on your skin

Don't hide yourself away
I'm gonna take you today
Don't ever let me out
I'll make you scream and shout
Hey, hey
I'll make you scream and shout
Yeah, oh
I'm so high, yes, so high
So high, I'm so high

Cry, Cry
Yeah when you pull me in
So high, high
My skin on your skin

02. I Feel No Pain

Crazy fool I was twisted jaded it's a crime to see
It's a desperate proposition you wouldn't let it be
A crazy fool I was wasted tainted my mind not my own
In a state of disillusion and I'm a long way from home

You know it really doesn't matter to me
You know it really doesn't matter to me
Doesn't matter what the future will be
Cause it really doesn't matter to me, no

Damn you fool hatred fixated is this really me
In a void of paranoia tell me what you see
Damn you fool created elated this thing inside my soul
I've gotta fight this demon before it takes control

You know it really doesn't matter to me
You know it really doesn't matter to me
Doesn't matter what the future will be
Cause it really doesn't matter to me

Let the rain come wash away my pain
Let the rain come wash away my pain
Oh I don't feel no pain
Oh I feel no pain

Crazy fool I'm wasted tainted my mind was not my own
In a state of disillusion I'm a long way from home

You know it really doesn't matter to me
You know it really doesn't matter to me
Doesn't matter what the future will be
Cause it really don't matter

Let the rain come wash away my pain,
Let the rain come wash away my pain
Oh I don't feel no pain
Oh I feel no pain

03. This Planet And Me

Just go easy with it
This life is planned out to be
Don't put the lights around me
All my spirits break free
So it's now that I've decided
To hide behind these closed doors
I'm being pulled every which way
I can't give anymore

Don't want to be on the radio
Don't want my picture taken no more
Don't want to be in the video
There coming now to steel my soul
I don't think I'm liked that much
I'm out of reach and out of touch
Don't want to be in the picture show
There coming now to steel my soul

Do you see my true colours?
Is there a crack in my disguise?
Deep down beneath the layers
Where my demons wait to rise
Don't wanna be a corporate target
Full of diamond coloured tales
I'm gonna get me off this planet
Red lights on systems failed

So I'm leaving now and I wish you luck
Re-evaluate my life on earth
I'm gonna stop the world too look and see
Is it all about this planet and me?
So I'm leaving now and I wish you luck
Re-evaluate my life on earth
I'm gonna stop the world too look and see
It's all about this planet and me

I'm leaving now
I'm leaving now
I wish you luck
I'm leaving now
I'm leaving now
I'm leaving now
I'm leaving now
I'm leaving now

04. Reign Supreme

I'm here to guide you let me take your through your dreams
I'll be your master you're the puppet on my string
I want to take you show you places that I've seen
Through magic gardens every door opens for me

Yeah you know you know there's a better life for you
Yeah let go breathe slow you know it's what you wanna do
Yeah you know you know your life ain't what it seems
So breathe slow let go let go

Love will reign supreme
Love will reign supreme
Love will reign supreme

Don't be afraid take a pill to numb the pain
Live you life and suffer or take your life in vein
I'll take you flying over seas of tears
The lightning flashes and crashes at my please

Yeah you know you know you got to follow through
Yeah let go breathe slow it's totally up to you
So what you gonna do?
So what you gonna do?
What you gonna do?

I'll be waiting when you fall
When the man he comes to call
I'm the key to all your doors
Run into the light and you'll be free
I just want to let you see
There's a beautiful place to be
In a land you can be queen
Where our love will reign supreme
Love will reign supreme

Yeah you know you know there's a better life for you
Yeah let go breathe slow you know it's what you wanna do
Yeah you know you know your life ain't what it seems
So breathe slow let go let go

05. Killing Me

I light a fire to keep me warm
I see an illusion the remnants of a storm
And this fire gives me faith
And when the embers burn the fire reveals your face

What are we fighting for?
Innocent souls get washed ashore
Prove to me
As fate opens another door
Can't you see?
I don't need this shit no more
It's killing me killing me

I can't rely on you anymore
So many people say you don't know what you've got till it's gone
This road is bleeding ain't no turning back
I gave you red roses but you're cold heart turned them black

Where do we go from here?
I don't know
I can't see a future with me here
So I'll go

Life's a riddle wrapped in mystery
Just the fragments of a fading memory
And this fire gives me faith
And when the embers burn the fire reveals your face

How long is this road we are on?
Tell me how long till another bomb
Tell me how long should we keep the faith?
Tell me how long till I retaliate
Retaliate

06. Tonight

Tonight oh Tonight
Let's leave it all far behind
Tonight oh tonight
All the stars are shining bright

And the face in the moon has the blackest eyes
Surrounded by an infinity of fires
Listen to the wind you can here it cry
This burning light is sure to die

Tonight oh tonight
Gonna leave this world far behind
Tonight oh tonight
All the stars are shining bright

Someday we'll find our paradise
Release the fears that control your mind
Never let this fire die out tonight
Lying underneath this midnight sky

Tonight oh tonight
All the stars are shining bright
Tonight yes tonight
Make a wish and hold on tight

It's the darkest blackest night of all
And were waiting for the stars to fall
Let's treasure this moment in time
Forever and always be mine
Forever and always
Forever and always
Forever and always
Forever and always
Forever and always and always and always and always and always

07. Pray For Me

Sacrificed vandalized is how I feel
Scandalize traumatize do what you will
Sign the line and go to war
Ten thousand men won't free the cause

Tell me how do you feel?
Tell me how do you feel?
To waste such innocent life
Thrown into the fight
Pray for me
Cover me now
I gonna make it
I won't be shot down
Pray for me
Cover me
Pray for me
Cover me
Pray for me
Cover me now

Criticized victimized is how I feel
Hypnotized government lie's bow down to your will
Don't wanna see my name on that wall
To say I died for a worthy cause

Tell me how do you feel?
Tell me how do you feel?
To waste such innocent life
Thrown into the fight
Pray for me
Cover me now
I gonna make it
I won't be shot down
Pray for me
Cover me
Pray for me
Cover me
Pray for me
Cover me now

08. What's In Your Head?

The world watched as you deemed justice done
Cry's of rejoice from a vengeful son
A thousand tears shed
A conscience you dread
What's going on going on?
Tell me what's in your head
Come on come on come on
Tell me now cause there's something wrong
Can't see the world through tainted glass
I sense there's trouble and it's coming fast

So many lies you sold for your fame
Now you live in a world of eternal shame
How do you sleep in your bed?
Filled with regret
What's going on going on?
Tell me what's in your head
Come on come on come on
Tell me now cause there's something wrong
Can't see the world, world
I sense there's trouble I sense trouble

You've always got someone to blame
So what's wrong? Tell me what's the news today?
You watch me as I disintegrate
It's all breaking down and I know it's too late
Ain't nothing gonna hide your shame
So what's wrong? Tell me what's the news today?

I can see your eyes filled with doubt
It's all in your mind just let it out
Now more tears are shed
From the lies that you spread
What's going on going on?
Tell me what's in your head
Come on come on come on
Tell me now cause there's something wrong
Can't see the world through tainted glass
I sense trouble I sense trouble

You've always got someone to blame
So what's wrong? Tell me what's the news today?
You watch me as I disintegrate
It's all breaking down and I know it's too late
Ain't nothing gonna hide your shame
So what's wrong? Tell me what's the news today?

You've always got someone to blame
So what's wrong? Tell me what's the news today?
You watch me as I disintegrate
It's all breaking down and I know it's too late

09. Nothing To Lose

All the people look the same
Something's got to give I need a change
So down this road I go
With Jimmy showing me the way to go
Got to free me got to break this chain
Get out get away a new town a new day
I wanna get me more
I can't be living a lie anymore
I'm gonna find what I'm looking for

Got nothing to lose
Nothing to prove
Nothing to live for anymore
Take it from me
I'm not what you see
I'm not the same man you knew before
I'm not the same
Baby I've changed

I was deep down in a hole
And I think I'm gonna lose control
Never had a hope in hell
Where I'm going only time will tell
Gonna take my chances let it roll
Get out get away a new town a new day
I wanna get me more
I can't be living a lie anymore
I'm gonna find what I'm looking for

Got nothing to lose
Nothing to prove
Nothing to live for anymore
Take it from me
I'm not what you see
I'm not the same man you knew before
Nothing to lose
Nothing to prove
I'm not the same man you knew before
I'm not the same baby I've changed
I'm gonna choose a path with a heart
And I really think it's time to start

Got nothing to lose got nothing got nothing to prove got nothing
I got nothing to lose got nothing,
I got nothing to prove got nothing,
I got nothing I got nothing I got nothing to lose got nothing
I got nothing I got nothing I got nothing to lose nothing to prove

10. Calling Out

Roll me another so I fall a sleep
And the stories you tell me are mine alone to keep
Close your eyes and hold me
I'm feeling so lonely I'm trembling inside
Don't let go

I'm calling out
Can you hear me when I cry?
I'm calling out
Oh I can't hide
I'm reaching out to touch the sky
I'm calling out
Calling out
Calling out
Calling out
Calling out
Calling out

Save me yes save me I'm starting to fall
My heart is wide open sow the seed and watch it grow
Close your eyes and hold me
I'm feeling so lonely I'm trembling inside
Don't let go, don't let go

11. Victim

Body's fighting in the street
I've been living in the ghetto trying to make ends meet
Keep the wolf from my door
Can't rest don't get no sleep
Living in this city it's alive with knife crime on the street

I can here the sirens wail
Hear the noise of breaking glass
Another man's blown away from hate born from the past
Count your coffin nails or try to make a stance
You wanna fight the world alone
A revolution never lasts

Don't make me a victim
I'm not a preacher man oh no
I'm gonna keep my distance
I'm not taking sides
I got no religion man
I just live my life

On every corner stands a whore
Another man robbed of his life
Stole the money to make a score
Now the streets are all alight
Has paradise closed its door?
Shall I walk towards the light?
Fate deals the final hand
I'm just trying to stay alive

Around every corner there could be a war
I've got to watch my back
I'm going a little crazy
I'm about to crack
Going fucking crazy
Oh yeah
Going fucking crazy

Don't make me a victim
I'm not taking sides
I got no religion man
I just live my life
I'm just a simple man
I just live my life
