In A Way

On the third floor of a hotel there's a pregnant flamenco dancer
In the bathtub is a razor and she's planning her great escape
In a way she's giving up on herself, whoooa
Either way she's giving up some of herself, whoooa
In the backyard there's a small boy playing soldier with an army ranger
In the front room there's a mother to the small boy
She's a total stranger
In a way she's giving up on herself, whoooa
Either way she's giving up some of herself, whoooa
Love is only what you give up
Life isn't what you get
Love won't always fill your cup
But life's when you start to live
Life's when you learn to give
When I leave here I'm going to go home to the small boy
And that flamenco dancer
Leave the guitar and the spotlight I'm gonna go home to my biggest fans
In a way I'm giving up some of myself, whoooa
In a way isn't that what it's about, whoooa
In a way I'm giving up some of myself, whoooa
Whooa, oh whoooa, oh whoooa
Isn't that what it's about
Oh whoooa, oh whoooa, whoooa, no no noo
Oh whoooa, oh whoooa,
Isn't that what it's about
Oh whoooa, oh whoooa,
Isn't that what it's about

I've Been Down

I've been down, I've been down, I've been down before
I've been down, I've been down, but never this low
I've been down, I've been down, I've been down before
I've been down, I've been down, but never this low
You know that even a strong man falls
And even a wise man has to learn
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
Yes it's true that some men have it all
while me and the rest just crash and burn
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
You think you're telling me something
But I've heard it once or twice
You've been taking every turn that's wrong
And I've been taking your advice
Well I've been down, I've been down, I've been down before
I've been down, I've been down, but never this low
I've been down, I've been down, I've been down before
I've been down, I've been down, but never this low
I know the day will come
When all my worries now are dead and gone
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
One day soon tomorrow we'll find what's gone
But I'll be right here holding on
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
You think you're telling me something
But I've heard it once or twice
You've been taking every turn that's wrong
And I've been taking your advice
Well I've been down, I've been down, I've been down before
I've been down, I've been down, but never this low
I've been down, I've been down, I've been down before
I've been down, I've been down, but never this low
Oh no no no no yeah
Never this low
I've been down, I've been down, I've been down before
I've been down, I've been down, but never this low
I've been down, I've been down, I've been down before
I've been down, I've been down, but never this low

I Am

Gone astray we find ourselves
Right on the edge of falling apart
Don't you see it's in our ways
When something's done wrong, we just go along
It lights a fire inside of me
Just show we when this living stops
I am father and son
I am all that I fear
I could choose to give up
We could tear the world apart
Tear the world apart
We could tear the world apart
Cut to the cord start to breathe
We're living life at frantic speed
Don the suit and ride the steed
With these shackles on you won't come to harm
I could be the worst of these
A sinking ship on the open sea
I am father and son
I am all that I fear
I can choose to give up
We could tear the world apart
Tear the world apart
We could tear the world apart
All on my own I'm trying
To change how you see and what you believe
To fight fire with fire and live eye for eye
We'll all end up blind and burning
Burning, burning
Tear the world apart
We could tear the world apart
We could tear the world apart
We could tear the world apart

Got A Hold On Me

Try as I might
Well I'm a fool in a losing fight
I can't escape the bullet bite
'Cause the enemy's inside
Sign on the dotted line
Take your pick, have a bite
When seduction starts
I know it won't stop
'Til I give you the things I can't deny
You've got me wrapped up in your cancer
But I'm not quite what you thought I'd be
You really got a hold on me
You really got a hold and it's feeling good
You really got control of me
I should have gotten out when I thought I could
I get my fix for the last time
One more trip to the other side
Scratch my skin 'cause you leave me dry
I'm making deals with thieves and liars
You really got a hold on me
You really got a hold and it's feeling good
You've really got control of me
I should've gotten out when I thought I could
Walk the ropes down the boulevard
Past the dollar shows for the bleeding hearts
You've used me up down to the last drop
But I'm more than what you thought I'd be
You thought you had a hold on me
You thought you had a hold and it's feeling good
You thought you had control of me
You should have gotten out when you thought I would
You thought you had control of me
But you never had a hold on me
You never had control of me
You never had control of me control of me.

On The Rocks

Early in the morning
I am reminded how few things change.
We've been through it
Every time it's the same old phrase.
Never should have said it
but you should know what i meant to say.
So we're back on the rocks
been here before will it ever stop?
I've tried to change
we're gonna fight
So we can make it right.
Livin in the moment
We fight the fog of the every day.
Monday morning in 20/20 it seem so clear.
Even though i see it
We give into weakness and wind up here.
So we're back on the rocks
been here before will it ever stop?
I've tried to change.
we're gonna fight
so we can make it right
I'm not giving up
I'm not giving up
If i'm given a reason
Then i'd stop beliving and just move on
I can't move on
So we're back on the rocks
been here before will it ever stop?
I've tried to change.
we're gonna fight
so we can make it right.
I like it on the rocks
I'll take it on the rocks
so we can make it right
so we can make it right
ohhh, so we can make it right
so we can make it right
so we can make it right.

Take Our Chances

We're the generation of the silver spoon
No one can create but we can still consume
Now we're all just suits for the next board room
We're you quarterly reports
So come again and see results
Is passion just a last resort?
But it don't even matter now cause the time has come
welcome to the world it'll let you down
The time has come for you to live it up let it go
Show them what you're made of
And we'll take our chances getting it wrong
And we'll take our chances
We've got something that you can't refuse
A 50 foot monkey on the evening news
So pull up your chair and kick off your shoes
The new tech boom's fighting the RIAA
Got the kids downloading and refusing to pay
Cause they don't like the music that the radio plays
But it don't even matter now
No it don't even matter now cause the time has come
Welcome to the world it'll let you down
Said the time has come for you to live it up let it go
Show them what you're made of
And we'll take our chances getting it wrong
And we'll take our chances
And we'll take our chances
And we'll take our chances
The USA's got a freedom of choice
So call up your congressman abuse your voice
Cause everybody's bashing on the fighting boys
So we'll save democracy with war machines
Cause you can't ignore it in the name of peace
And the rest of our money goes to New Orleans.
But it don't even matter now
No it don't even matter now
No it don't even matter now cause the time has come
Welcome to the world has it let you down
The time has come you've got to live it up let it go
Show them what you're made of
And we'll take our chances getting it wrong
And we'll take our chances
And we'll take our chances
And we'll take our chances
And we'll take our chances getting it wrong
And we'll take our chances
And we'll take our chances
And we'll take our chances getting it wrong

Watershed

Every day she's serving coffee
walking in her high heeled shoes
Any time she wears her hair down
oh, another day I lose
She don't know
She don't care about it
She's a watershed,
making my heart turn blue
She's a watershed,
making my heart turn blue
