1. Over Me

Rain, sleepless rain is comin' down again
It's the same, same, same just like you know when...
Yes I do.

Oh.. it's floodin' in the holy land
Oh.. I'm drownin' like a workin' man...
Oh.. but there is nowhere else that I would rather be, yeah...

One more time..
If you were mine, if you were mine, if you were mine...

Over me, rain or shine. I'd be satisfied

Blame, burnin' blame is underneath my skin
Such a shame, shame, shame, shame, wish I knew it then
Yes I do, yes I do

Oh.. sing another lullaby
Oh.. I think we need an alibi
Oh.. but there is nowhere else that I would rather be

One more time
If you were mine, if you were mine, if you were mine....

Over me, rain or shine. I'd be satisfied yeah

Rain, tired rain slowin' down again..
But the pain doesn't feel the same like I remember then..
Yes I do, yes I do

Oh.. it's floodin' in the holy land
Oh.. I'm drownin' like a workin' man
Oh.. but there is nowhere else that I would rather be, yeah.....

One more time..
If your were mine, if you were mine, if you were mine..

Over me, rain or shine
I....I'd be satisfied

You'd be over me, over me
You'd be over me, one more time....

2. Congratulations Song

Standin' on the ceiling, it's alright
Suspended by the dreams you seem to lose
You've been floatin' for a while, a while, can't hold on
Standin' on the ceiling, it's alright, it's alright

Somebody is tryin' to get the best of me
So now you're flying like you wanna be
Right where you belong

Starin' at the wall like it's window,don't know
Blinded by the dreams you seem to lose.
You've been starin' for a while, knock it down
Starin' at the wall, you don't know, don't know...

Somebody is tryin' to get the best of me
So now you're flying like you wanna be
Right where you belong

Runnin' from the sun again, it's alright, alright
Runnin' from the dreams you seem to lose
You've been runnin' for a while, a while...
You can't slow down...

Runnin' from the sun again, it's all right, all right
Somebody is tryin' to get the best of me
So now you're flying like you wanna be.....

3. Stare Too Long

Oh lord I must be crazy, Settled down and I find nothing new..

Older days, they used to matter but I don't care
Cause I got nothin' to lose

And if I stare too long, I might not see you right
Over time, the heart goes out of sight
And if I stare too long, I might not see you right
Close the door. Where the heart is out of sight

Many a dreams across the river
But it's too strong for a boy like me, yeah....

Now you're gone but I still remember
Better days as they wash into the sea

And if I stare too long, I might not see you right
Over time, the heart goes out of sight
And if I stare too long, I might not see you right
Close the door. Where the heart is out of sight

I've got the time but I got no reason
I'm broken down, waiting patiently
Now the sun don't shine for me and that's a different season
but she comes around one more time for me...

And if I stare too long, I think I might go blind
Over time the heart goes out of sight
And if I live too long, I might not treat you right
Close the door....Now you're shining way too bright...
Shine on......

4. Diablo Blvd.

Some wonder, some filter, some trip to pass the time
Just ask him and he'll tell you nothing better then a desperate mind

I'm in love with a widow soon to be,
I don't think I can fight it
Anthems broke and I'm spinning 'round again,
Stayin' dizzy 'cause I like it

You can have it if you want it,
just remember it's a lonely ride
Ain't that hard to fight

Kickin' hard time, they split you to the bone. Kickin' hard time, risin'

Home is your destination, do you think you can find it
Feelin' green once again, downtown you go, the arrows rising

You can have it if you want it,
just remember it's a lonely ride
Ain't that hard to fight

Kickin' hard time, they split you to the bone. Kickin' hard time, risin'
Some wonder, some filter, some trip to pass the time
Just asked him and he will tell you there is nothing better then a desperate mind

Diablo, talk to me, tell me what's on your mind
That game boy, to the rivals, we don't need no war inside

Kickin' hard time, kickin' hard time, risin'
Once so magnetic but you do it so poetic
And you lay it on the line and singin' kickin' hard time, it ain't that
hard to find
Kickin' hard time, they split you to the bone. Kickin' hard time, risin'

5. Doublewide

New, the sky is clear, you reappear
And I lost my way a million to one
and you come around when the day is done

And I wonder which one knows ?
And I wonder which one goes ?
I'm doublewide.. I'm doublewide

And I don't have a reason, something's gone wrong
And I still don't remember, I been here too long
Gonna lose my way behind the sun
Then I'll come around when the day is done

And I wonder which one knows ?
And I wonder which one goes ?
I'm doublewide.. I'm doublewide

Over time, on judgement day, overdrawn passion play
If I die before I wake, I think I got an even break

I'm doublewide....

6. Zippo

Amplified on fire, strapped to take you higher
Queens appear, strapped you made it clear

Is everybody with me, is everybody cool
Is anybody lazy, am I the only fool ?

Hell yeah maybe you a roc n rolla
Hey, hey maybe I should of been colder
Ditch that wish and sell your soul

Is everybody with me is everybody cool
Is anybody lazy am I the only fool ?

That's what makes it so damn hard to find her
I was down beat crazy, lumps to make it hazy
Ride on fear, wings they disappear

Is everybody with me, is everybody cool
Is anybody lazy, am I the only fool ?

Hell yeah maybe you a roc n rolla
Hey hey maybe I should of been colder
Ditch that wish and sell your soul

I was down town freaky, strapped you made it tricky
Heads go under, sho ruff gonna roll you over

Is everybody with me is everybody cool
Is anybody lazy am I the only fool ?

Hell yeah maybe you a roc n rolla
Hey, hey maybe I should of been colder
Ditch that wish and sell your soul

Ditch that wish and sell your soul
Life that touch and make your body rockah
Make yo body rockah...Make yo body rockah...

7. Who's Got The Fire

Oh say man, are you still alive, cause I heard your ship was sinking
Back in town, but there's nothin' around, man, I know the feeling'
I'm talkin' bout it

Who's got the fi-yah?
Who's got the fi-yah?
Who's got the fi-yah?
Leave it for the love, and try to call me a liar.

Hey you. Mr. Highball, too young to walk, to old to crawl
Quittin' time, but is your soul better, never mind, never mind
Quit talkin' bout it

Who's got the fi-yah?
Who's got the fi-yah?
Who's got the fi-yah?
Leave it for the love, put me out

To' up, from the Flo' up, I say Stop...wait a minute now Ho' up
Heat come around to hunt you down
I know you know the feelin'
I'm talkin' bout it

Who's got the fi-yah?
Who's got the fi-yah?
Who's got the fi-yah?
Leave it for the love, put me out

8. Sleeping Martyr

There's a boy they call the sleepin' man, he's been asleep for days
There's a girl lyin' next to him, following his ways

Dreaming of a foreign place, where the people always pray
Nowhere else to run to...now
So this is where they stay

That's all she wanted to hear
That's all she wanted to hear
Sleep another year....

I will in time forget the order, wake up the sleepin' martyr
Somethin' don't seem right....In you

A broken will to testify, a thorn on either side
Empty bottles lyin' next to him, keeps him satisfied

Voices on that dead end street, make you feel so fine
Wake up son it's time to go, you're runnin' out of time...

And that's all he wanted to hear
That's all he wanted to hear
Sleep another year...

I will in time forget the order, wake up the sleepin' martyr
Somethin' don't seem right..In you

He dreamed until his heart was still or so the story goes..
Can't remember how he got that way cause he's forgot more than he knows...

Drift into a foreign place, seems like yesterday..
Nowhere else to run to...now, alone he starts to pray

And that's all she wanted to hear
That's all she wanted to hear
Sleep another year...

I will in time forget the order, wake up the sleepin' martyr

Hold tight, hold tight, hold tight
Cause it's gonna' be a long night, anytime, everytime....
Anytime In you...

9. Take What You Want

Just as long as we are here, standing tall for one more year
Sing out loud and keep away the cold

When you're blind and you can't see
Realize it's them, not me
I might be hard to find, you know it happens everytime

When I'm tired I crawl, I can't stand to see you fall
And the years they don't treat you like they used to

When you're wide and I'm awake
I got time enough for days Take a-want you want
It just might set you free, not me ...

Oh no way, I've been up for a thousand days
But you can cut me down when I'm old and gray
And if you catch me on the move, you can come along
Or you can disapprove

I might be hard to find, you know it happens every time

When I'm tired, I crawl, I can't stand to see you fall
And the years they don't treat you like they used to

When you're wide and I'm awake
I got time enough for days take a-want you want
It just might set you free and not me...

Does it feel the same

When I'm tired I crawl like the savior in us all
But I don't mind it's somethin' that I'm used to

And when it's time to go, I just thought I'd let you know
Farewell this time, you're always on my mind

When I'm tired I crawl, it's a shame to see you fall
And the years they don't treat you like they used to

But when you're wide and I'm awake
Baby, I got enough damn time for a million days
Take a-want you want and it just might set you free....

When you're up you roam, it's a shame to see you go
And the years they don't treat you like they used to

Just as every light you see might be the one that sets you free
Keep on rising like the ones you used to know, let's go.......

10. 13 Angels

Sleep, sleep, sleep, oh sleep for me
And rest your soul, just like the roses at your feet
Dream, dream, dream, dream awhile for me
And travel far away 'till the distance is complete

There's 13 Angels standing on display
I think they're gonna take you away
One life time gone and now your soul is dead
The angels just shake their heads

Oh faith, faith, faith, have faith for me
I lost it long ago somewhere I shouldn't be
Heart heart heart, save your heart for me
It's the only place I've been with everything I need

There's 13 Angels standing on display
I think they're gonna throw me away

One life time gone and now my soul is dead
The angels just shake their heads

Oh, Maybe I'm a life time soldier never dying, never gettin' older
Maybe I'm a life time soldier lost along the way....

High, high, high, stay high for me
And let me see the things I never thought I'd be
Wait, wait, wait, please wait for me
I've travelled far and wide without a destiny

There's 13 Angels standing on display
I think they're gonna take you away

One life time gone and now my soul is dead
The angels just shake their heads

Oh, Maybe I'm a life time soldier never dying, never gettin' older
Maybe I'm a life time soldier lost along the way....

11. Gittin' It On

Sixty feet out of reach, hammer down every time
And we was gittin' it on, gittin' it on
Don't fuck with the stroker, it's 60 over
And I know that we was gittin' it on, gittin' it on

Power down in the hole,
and you was smokin' on the shoulder
Sucked you up like a leech
and now you're limpin' like a Duster
While we was gittin' it on, gittin' it on

Like a D/Class gasser, 4-speed suicide
We was gittin' it on, gittin' it on

Dominatin' the modified, force-fed power grind
And we was gittin' it on, gittin' it on

Power down in the hole
and you was smokin' on the shoulder
Sucked you up like a leach
and now you're limpin' like a Duster
While we was gittin' it on, gittin' it on..

Gittin' it on, Gittin' it on
Got the heavies, Got the heavies
