No Compass

All alone, now you’re gone,
Far from home, you rode on, let me roam.
I’m not scared, I’m just feeling bare,
Don’t know where, in thin air, you don’t care.
Left me with no compass, I’m still
Left me with no map, I’m still lost
Left me with no compass, I’m still
Left me with no map, I’m still trying to survive
I know somehow I’ll survive
x2
The blue sky is crashing,
I’m petrified, if I cry, I don’t mind.
In the trees, you just left me,
With debris, you can’t see, I'm not free.
Left me with no compass, I’m still
Left me with no map, I’m still lost
Left me with no compass, I’m still
Left me with no map, I’m still trying to survive
I know somehow I’ll survive
x2
Forgotten promises don’t last long, I don’t need them today.
Step after step, till I find my way, I don’t need you today.
Lost, I don’t need them today.
Lost in the trees, chased by the wind today.
x4
Left me with no compass, I’m still
Left me with no map, I’m still lost
Left me with no compass, I’m still
Left me with no map, I’m still trying to survive
I know somehow I’ll survive

Nights of Blue
02:50
|

|
When you danced around the room,
I kinda like that, got me excited.
I didn’t think you recognized me,
But then you caught my eyes, and you we’re smilin’.
When the parties over left staring up at the moon,
I wanna be left staring with you,
I wanna see what you might do.
When the night is quiet under the moon,
I wanna be alone with you,
I wanna see what you might do in Nights of Blue.
I’ve been rolling with the punches far too long,
I’ve been knocked down, I lost my song.
Like a dream straight out of my head,
You picked me up, and we danced again.
When the parties over left staring up at the moon,
I wanna be left staring with you,
I wanna see what you might do.
When the night is quiet under the moon,
I wanna be alone with you,
I wanna see what you might do
He said I think I love you in the middle of the night,
He said I think you love me too.
I love this moment when we hold hands each night,
Holding onto something I’m used to in Nights of Blue.
When the parties over left staring up at the moon,
I wanna be left staring with you,
Cause that’s what lovers do.
When the night is quiet under the moon,
I wanna be alone with you,
I wanna see what you might do in Nights of Blue.
See what you might do in Nights of Blue.
In Nights of Blue.
In Nights of Blue.

Nobody Girl
02:56
|

|
Under dim lights, the music’s still playing,
Tired of bar fights, morale still decaying.
Outside her locked door, under the shadow,
Lost in the dark, to what they think they know.
Nobody can make it through the night unburned,
Nobody except the Nobody Girl.
These roads of concrete, have cracks in the surface,
Standing down the street, he blames her short dress.
Hurried past street lamps, that aid and abet.
Following her trail, tight with every step.
Nobody can make it through the night unburned,
Nobody except the Nobody Girl.
She’s in us all, but we don’t like to see her in others,
So we,
Point fingers, blame who, then
Turn on your neighbors, lights
Spill on the streets, catch the safety glow
On the road.
Take her seriously, Nobody (Nobody) does,
If you don’t, Nobody gets hurt (me)
x2 (hurt) (hurt) (me)
[Various Repetitions]
Nobody can make it through the night unburned,
Nobody except the Nobody Girl.
Nobody except the Nobody Girl.
Nobody accepts the Nobody Girl.
Nobody (nobody) x3
The Nobody Girl.

She isn’t nice,
Nobody said she had to be.
She doesn’t play fair,
But who wants an honest lead?
Listen to your heart most days, but not today, now listen to me.
Don’t say I didn’t try.
I know the thrill is good,
I know the chase is hot,
Don’t play yourself to be something that you’re not.
Movin’ like a bull in a china shop,
She never knows how or when to stop.
Fire with fire, gettin’ pretty hot,
Wait till it’s over, you’ll see what you got.
Movin’ like a bull in a china shop,
She never knows how or when to stop.
Fire with fire, gettin’ pretty hot,
Long before it’s over you see something that it’s not.
She doesn’t care,
She won’t wait for you to tell her who to be.
It’s like she’s blowing hot air,
Ooooh, she won’t tiptoe carefully.
Listen, I know you’re all ablaze,
She’s not your enemy.
Just open up your eyes.
I know the thrill is good,
I know the chase is hot,
Don’t you go play yourself,
She’s nothing something that I caught.
Movin’ like a bull in a china shop,
She never knows how or when to stop.
Fire with fire, gettin’ pretty hot,
Wait till it’s over, you’ll see what you got.
Movin’ like a bull in a china shop,
She’s never gonna slow down, never gonna stop.
Fire with fire, gettin’ pretty hot,
Long before it’s over she’ll be something that we’re not.
The world turns gold, when I’m with her.
I feel more bold, she makes me stronger.
When you feel that, what I’m trying to get at.
I know it’s right, you can’t just run back.
Don’t know why I doubted, I know she’s the right fit,
I guess I missed it.
The world turns gold, when I’m (your) with her.
I feel more bold, she makes me (you) stronger.
When you feel that, what I’m trying to get at.
I know it’s right, you can’t just run back.
She’s gonna be there, even when you get scared,
She’ll take you anywhere.
Movin’ like a bull in a china shop,
She’s never gonna slow down, never gonna stop.
Fire with fire, gettin’ pretty hot,
Wait till it’s over, you’ll see what you got.
Movin’ like a bull in a china shop,
She’s never gonna slow down, never gonna stop.
Fire with fire, gettin’ pretty hot,

Tomorrow

Tomorrow, you said wait for tomorrow.
I’m keeping my eyes on tomorrow.
Always tomorrow.
How long till tomorrow,
This feels like forever in sorrow,
Just for tomorrow.
It feels much more far off
Than just tomorrow.
Tell me, tomorrow,
Will I still be waiting tomorrow,
For just another day to borrow?
I think it’s time to go.
Today is too long,
to just be waiting, there’s too much,
left to do, my heart was racing,
For you to just come home.
If I see you tomorrow,
On your way home tomorrow,
Maybe love could change me forever, till then good luck, my dear,
Till then, goodbye, tomorrow.

Turn me on, flip the switch, watch me light up.
Catch your eye, know the moves, no beginners luck.
Know the game, know the field, where to go when.
Ready set, player one, Play Me go.
Play the game, it’s for fun.
Watch me dance like all night long.
Let this be my obsession.
Start it back and Play Me on.
Start it back and Play Me on.
You’re surprised, when I crack, under pressure.
Be advised, that small crack is not insured.
Know the game, know my mind, what to say when.
Ready set, player one, Play Me go.
Play the game, it’s for fun.
Watch me dance like all night long.
Let this be my obsession.
Start it back and Play Me on.
Start it back and Play Me on.
Let me go now,
Start it back and Play Me on

The Path
04:55

I don’t know where I’m going,
But when I get there, I wanna be there with you.
Who knows where their going,
Nobody knows how to get there, we just keep walking the path.
And we travel on, this road we keep our eyes upon.
In the dark without a light, we have to manage without sight.
When we see through the night, on the distant mountainside, we cry,
Come to my eyes,
Come to my heart,
Hold me so tight, find love, find love, find love.
And we travel on, this road we keep our eyes upon.
In the dark without a light, we have to manage without sight.
When we see through the night, on the distant mountainside, we cry.
Come to my eyes,
Come to my heart,
Hold me so tight, find love, find love, find love.
I don’t know where I’m going,
But when I get there, I wanna be there with you.
Who knows where their going,
Nobody knows how to get there, we just keep walking the path.
And we travel on, led only be a distant light.
In ourselves we find tonight, the only map to follow by.
I will hold my head up high, for all the time it took to learn to fight, to find.
You, I’m not gonna fight, I will cry out,
For the tears that fell in moonlight.
I’m not gonna hide, I will hold my head up high
For all the time that I felt lost, and I’ll remember,
The pain we shared together.
Battles always feel alone, but you only need your heart.
And I’ll remember, you and I together.
Cracks and breaks can hurt and ache,
But with your strength, you’ll find your place.
The blood inside me.
My heart beating on.
The wind behind me,
Always pushing me on.

You’ve been on my mind since I met you,
Show me what you look like, show me what you feel like.
I wanna know when I let you,
That I'm not a plaything, I can’t take another fling.
When you’re ready too, then you’ll
Show me what you look like, show me what you feel like.
When it’s me and you, then you’ll
Show me what you look like, show me what you feel like.
The Ribbon on my heart getting tighter from the start
Just don’t let me
Fall
The Ribbon on my heart getting tighter from the start
Just don’t let me
Fall
Just don’t let me
Fall
Just don’t let me
Fall
I can feel your body still beside me,
It's hard to see by moonlight, this can't be a single night.
Breathing slow, I could feel your heartbeat,
In your arms it feels like, everything is going fine.
When you’ve left my room, then you’ll
Know I’m catching my breath, making sure I don’t forget.
When it’s me and you, then you
Show me what you look like, show me what you feel like.
The Ribbon on my heart getting tighter from the start
Just don’t let me
Fall
The Ribbon on my heart getting tighter from the start
Just don’t let me
Fall
Just don’t let me
Fall
Just don’t let me
Fall
The Ribbon on my heart getting tighter from the start
Just don’t let me
Fall
The Ribbon on my heart getting tighter from the start
Just don’t let me
Fall
Just don’t let me
Fall
Just don’t let me
Fall
Don’t let me fall

The Day is Gone
04:24
|

The comfort of these walls means nothing to you.
The ticking of the clock is a nuisance to live through.
These feelings hold you down, I’ve been there too
I’ll still be here for you.
When the day is gone,
When you can’t hang on,
When your heart’s withdrawn,
I’ll be on your side.
When the day is gone,
When the sun is gone.
x2
The words that leave a scar, are the ones that feel true.
Those voices in your head, are the people around you.
These nightmares last all day, can’t wait to break through.
I’ll still be here for you.
When the day is gone,
When you can’t hang on,
When your heart’s withdrawn,
I’ll be on your side.
When the day is gone,
When the sun is gone.
x2
When days feel long, but always dim,
Pounding thoughts filled past the brim.
It’s not your fault, no not at all.
Nowhere to go, the clouds won’t fall.
If you need someone to call,
You’re not alone, I’m through the phone.
The words you know, hold your shadow,
I can wait when you talk slow.
Through drowning waves, through all the names.
I’ll listen for the words you say,
If you’re ever feeling grey.
When you fall through, I’m here for you.
When the day is gone,
When you can’t hang on,
When your heart’s withdrawn,
I’ll be on your side.
When the day is gone,
When the sun is gone.

When it Comes to You
02:31
|

|
Inside this house,
Behind these walls.
Look through the glass, the pane where it cracks,
Could shatter and fall.
Inside those eyes,
Sweet and dark brown.
It all seems more real, one last chance to feel,
This thing that we found.
And I know, and I know, when it comes to you,
There’s nobody else that feels this new.
Together, let’s love forever.
Inside this house,
Open the door.
This mess that we made, I’m scared it might fade,
It only hurts more.
Inside this heart,
Something for you.
Beats one more time, one last chance to rhyme,
I feel like a fool.
And I know, and I know, when it comes to you,
There’s nobody else that feels this new.
Together, let’s love forever.
And run away too
Run away too
Run away too
Run away, two by two
And I know, and I know, when it comes to you,
There’s nobody else that feels this new.
Together, let’s love forever.
And I know, and I know, when it comes to you,
You're the only thing that felt so true,
My lover, I missed forever,
It’s gone with you.

Satisfied
05:07

I’m afraid to go to sleep with dreams racing through my head,
I lose control of my mind, you come back and lie in bed.
Faded thoughts that I avoid, become memories again.
Tangled up in sheets and tears I hear the words that you don’t say,
They come crashing in at once, through the walls that held away,
All the reasons that I missed you, I won’t need them now today.
Hold me, (hold me) please just hold my hand,
I know I’m scared.
Hold me, you’re still the only thing I want.
Letting go never seemed so hard,
I can feel the hurt, I can see the scars.
All the loose ends seem to tie us,
Until we’re satisfied.
Somewhere close hiding in the night,
No one can save me from this fight.
All the loose ends seem to tie us.
Every time you hold me tight I start to wish again.
I pretend it doesn’t change that we still have to end.
Every hug makes me feel strong,
Just to dash my dreams again.
Every minute spent with you makes me think it might just work,
All the work I tried to do, just to move on past the hurt,
Stops to matter when your hands, are so close to mine again.
Hold me, (hold me) please just hold my hand,
I know I’m scared.
Hold me, you’re still the only thing I want.
Letting go never seemed so hard,
I can feel the hurt, I can see the scars.
All the loose ends seem to tie us,
Until we’re satisfied.
Somewhere close hiding in the night,
No one can save me from this fight.
All the loose ends seem to tie us.
Hands trace my back like they did before,
I’d like to pretend that this could help me but it only makes me want you more.
Where do I go with that, what do I do with that?
‘Cause I know at the end of the day,
All I want is your love,
But I need to move on.
Letting go never seemed so hard,
I can feel the hurt, I can see the scars.
All the loose ends seem to tie us,
Until we’re satisfied.
Somewhere close hiding in the night,
No one can save me from this fight.
All the loose ends seem to tie us.
Love I tried to hide lying deep inside,
I start to cry when I open my eyes.
All the loose ends seem to tie us,
But now we’re satisfied.
