Madison 04:07
lyrics
Is it, so wrong, that I want you to be part of my life, is it odd You tell me all your stories Your long winded glories It’s nice, I’m mean your life. I’ve wanted you so long. All that is so wrong about you. I’m too old, you’re too young, I’m to bold And you won’t fold down your cards, your guard A couple years don’t seem like much Until the law does get in touch you seem older, to me. I’ve wanted you so long. All that is so wrong about you. His hands are reaching up your skirt Your bodies pressed your lips all pursed That’s cute, so cute You tell me all you feelings, The ones that you are feeling, when he’s feeling, you. I’ve wanted you so long. All that is so wrong about you. So is he going to cross you line Take all of that, that should be mine I’d never do that, please don’t do that And even if it’s a mistake, it’s one that I wanna make I need you, can’t you see that. I’ve wanted you so long. All that is so wrong about you. But I committed, it’s funny I’m laughing, not laughing at all So put your chest close to mine And I will start to rub your thighs We know, it’s what we want. I’ve wanted you so long. All that is so wrong about you. Madison, Madison, Madison Do you want me? How can it feel so right That I can no longer lie And how can I say that I love you Well I guess you already know. So don’t you think we should indulge In this this mistake that we wanna take So don’t you think we walk a line Between who is yours, and who is mine?

K.I.S.S.I.N.G. 03:03
lyrics
I spend all my money to buy you things Like a car a bike and two diamond rings So you can put one on his finger and call him yours You won’t have to be seeing me cause I’ll be no more. Cause you and me we ain't sitting in a tree We ain’t K. I. S. S. I. N. G. We ain’t got the love We ain’t got the marriage We ain’t got the baby in the baby carriage. You can transport yourself over to his place And have fun all day until yours knees do shake You can go out dancing through the night Bob your head I’m sure he won’t fight. Cause you and me we ain't sitting in a tree We ain’t K. I. S. S. I. N. G. We ain’t got the love We ain’t got the marriage We ain’t got the baby in the baby carriage. So listen up and listen good I’m gonna pray to the gods that could and would I’m gonna pray to them fellas up above That you will find your true HA HA HA love. Cause you and me we ain't sitting in a tree We ain’t K. I. S. S. I. N. G. We ain’t got the love We ain’t got the marriage We ain’t got the baby in the baby carriage. And I tried so hard to be the perfect man When all I had to do was let you hold my hand And I tried so hard to give you all you wanted When all you really want was to get caught And I tried so hard to be the perfect man But I don’t think it would have mattered if I had And I tried so hard to give you all you wanted When all you really wanted was a bone. You're a sexual predator in the sense of the word You don't want your feeling heard You just want your cravings cured But your appetite is too hard to please Many have tried but non succeed. Cause you and me we ain't sitting in a tree We ain’t K. I. S. S. I. N. G. We ain’t got the love We ain’t got the marriage We ain’t got the baby in the baby carriage.

Clown 04:04
lyrics
Hey you will you be my darling true We can go to the carnival where I can play the clown We can go play some darts maybe I can hit your heart With my clown jokes and my tacky balloon art. But it seems my silly games are always wearing thin Cause nice guys finish last and I’m way nicer than them. Now just to make you laugh I’d fall right on my ass It’s a mirror image of what my life entails I’ll make some stupid joke before my emotions choke Before I let you see the shape I’m in. But it seems my silly games are always wearing thin Cause nice guys finish last and I’m way nicer than them. The reason I chose to clown is nothing that profound I tried to fill the gap when my father passed And just like any tortured mind I tried to hide what is confined With a joke and a toke I let my life slip by But it seems my silly games are always wearing thin Cause nice guys finish last and I’m way nicer than them. I chose my knife I chose my own life Take it or leave it I’m a clown. So hey you will you be my darling true We can go to the carnival and I'll can play the clown.

Renegade Soldier 04:47
lyrics
The radio plays shake rattle and roll The radios plays twist and shout Ill rattle and roll but I won’t shake Ill twist but I won’t shout. Renegade soldier’s my name Renegade soldier’s my game But I don’t wanna die today I don’t wanna die today. My brothers die at my feet Their blood runs through the street Crimson swirling pain Cradled only by Mary Jane. Renegade soldier’s my name Renegade soldier’s my game But I don’t wanna die today No I don’t wanna die today. A lion that isn’t brave My anger so easily tamed I’m a coward through and through I'll Stab you in the back my aim steady and true. So I turn my back on it all My brothers my sisters my friends And ashes coat my longs As I stare into the fire I’m filled with fear.

Falling 04:48
lyrics
It’s been a long time coming To find a girl like you Its been a long time coming I’m scared that it’s gonna slip away. Even when I’m falling Falling, falling for you Even when I’m falling Head over heals I hope it’s true. Well I’m happy to hear you say that To be honest I think your kinda cute With your red lips as pure as roses Your voice calms it calms my stormy mind. Even when I’m falling Falling, falling for you Even when I’m falling Head over heals I hope it’s true. So I’ll carve your name into my heart With a blade of solid stone cold fear So don’t let us be a fleeting memory Cause I won’t wash the grit from your bleeding wound. Even when I’m falling Falling, falling for you Even when I’m falling Head over heals I hope it’s true. Cause I’m falling Falling for you

Sing Coyote 04:14
lyrics
I know I know I know So dangerous but beautiful I know I know (x2) I used to follow you coyote Just to listen to you wail I used to figure you were used to being lonely And I would stay out of your trail I took some pocket change yeah And paid to get this way After all I’ve done my experience is all I could attain. I know I know I know So dangerous but beautiful I know I know (x2) Each one of these memories drags me closer to the edge Each one of these lonely sleeps go by A lot better since you left Even absent my soul is selective and direct When death come to collect lend him a leg before he takes your neck. An education never meant me to awaken A heavy lesson don’t prepare you for this no. How about that howl you were waiting for How about that sound heard in the park Leading laughter from the dark That you were waiting for. I know I know I know So dangerous but beautiful I know I know (x4)

Stay With Me 04:52
lyrics
My hand it is heated as it rests on your skin I can feel your heartbeat against mine As I bury my face in your long brown hair You scent it intoxicates me. So stay with me the night stay with me the night And I will be there in the morning At least I can promise you that So hold me, hold me Please hold me Through the night my love. As you swing your legs over the bed Your bare feet touch the cold hard ground I can feel the chill run through to me Cause I know that you’ll soon have to leave. So stay with me the night stay with me the night And I will be there in the morning But can you promise the same So hold me, hold me Please hold me Through the night my love. And you say that distance makes the heart grow fond But you know that I strongly disagree Cause I’d rather be here holding you close Then talking to some digitalized face. So stay with me the night stay with me the night And I will be there in the morning At least I can promise you that So hold me, hold me Please hold me Through the night my love. Stay with me through the night. You know that I know that I ask to much of you But still you stand right by my side It’s second nature When laughter is my feature Forefront in my choice of self-defense. So stay with me through the night I’ll hold you close hold you tight Stay with me through the night Stay with me through the night.

Hold On 02:59
lyrics
Hold on here I come Coming home round the mountain side Gonna cut you off gonna take a little bit of your pride oh yes I will Coming home if it takes all night Hold on here I come Coming home gonna make you mine all mine Gonna cruse highway 2 like I’m outta my god damn mind Burning round a buck 65. Had enough I’ve been working all month Sitting on a gold mine but that don’t hold me much Compared to you and your cold touch Coming home gonna warm you up. Hold on here I come coming home round the mountain side Gonna drive all night just to get a taste of that Auld Lang Sign You better bet your life on it Hold on here I come Coming in with the early morning light Small chance of rain big chance of ice Just cause of that I’m gonna hug you twice Coming home if it takes all night. Had enough I’ve been working all month Sitting on a gold mine but that don’t hold me much Compared to you and your cold touch Coming home gonna warm you up. Hold on here I come I’ll be coming round the mountain when I come You’ll be sound asleep and I hope I kept the promise I made when I wake you up Kissing you on the forehead Telling you I knew I didn’t need the luck Hold on here I come Coming home gonna make you mine all mine. Had a lot of fun last time I saw you honey Sitting on a gold mine but life ain’t all about money Catching up I hope won’t take too long Cause I didn’t come here just to hear you talk But you can talk I don’t mind Hold on here I come Coming home gonna make you mad so mad Cause I told my boss he could take his job And I’ll cut my losses. I had to do it Ya I had to do it That’s right I had to do it I had to do it I had to it I had to quit For you.
