MICHAEL SWEET LYRICS

1. Bizarre

Take me back, when we gave a damn
Strength of a lion, kind as a lamb
Society has weakened our wall
Integrity was once in us all
We have the heart and the soul of a king
If we only knew who we are
We could move mountains and do anything
But we just stand back from afar
Bizarre

There was a time we cared for each other
Grapes of a vine and life to discover
But now we're immune to the gifts that we own
This moment in time is only on loan
We have the heart and the soul of a king
If we only knew who we are
We could move mountains and do anything
But we just stand back from afar

Bizarre

Oh yeah, yeah

[Guitar solo]

We have the heart and the soul of a king
If we only knew who we are
We could move mountains and do anything
But we just stand back from afar
We have the heart and the soul of a king
If we only knew who we are
We could move mountains and do anything
But we just stand back from afar

Bizarre

Oh, yeah, yeah

2. One Sided War

I've sunk to your level
We've both slung mud
Down in the trenches
We've shed some blood

We've fired bullets, we can't take back
And ran this whole thing, way off the tracks

Yet I found forgiveness, and washed my hands
But you keep on pushing, if that's what you need

I don't wanna fight no more, I've made my peace
It's your one sided war, I'm layin' all my weapons down
But you drag it out, it's your one sided war

Is it the drama, is it the fuel
That feeds the monster, inside of you
Is it your own fears, you hide behind
Are you affraid to live, affraid to die

You're in your own way
When you could be free
But you keep on pushin'
'Cause that's what you need

I don't wanna fight no more, I've made my peace
It's your one sided war, I'm layin' all my weapons down
But you drag it out, it's your one sided war

I won't fight, fight no more
This is your one sided war

I don't wanna fight no more, I've made my peace
It's your one sided war, I'm layin' all my weapons down
But you drag it out, it's your one sided war

I don't wanna fight no more, I've made my peace
It's your one sided war, I'm layin' all my weapons down
But you drag it out, it's your one sided war

3. Can't Take This Life

You'll never understand
I have got pushed far beyond
But you've evil I can comprehend

'Cause I'm rooted in your throne
My seeds have grown. I am a tree
With many branches

You can take this moment
But you can't take this life from me

So do just what you will
Make your plans and strategies
But ... your cruelness won't be spared

And so before you go
You have to pay in every way
For every single sadness...

You can take this moment
But you can't take this life

You can take this moment
But you can't take this life

You can take this moment
But you can't take this life

4. Radio

I'm gonna find me a big truck
And drink a beer from a bottle
Buy a house down in Nashville
And some boots that I can model
I'll get a five gallon black hat
And a big belt buckle
A shotgun and gun rack
And some scars on my knuckles
I'm gonna write a country song
And it won't be long 'til I'm on the radio
And when it goes to number one
Gonna fake the fun like a clown in a rodeo

I'm gonna buy me an old farm
And sell the house in the city
Turn on my Southern charm
And if it's fake, ain't it a pity?
I'll talk with an accent
And play guitar with an old twang
Spray on some chaps scent
And get the bucks for my big bang
I'm gonna write a country song
And it won't be long 'til I'm on the radio
And when it goes to number one
Gonna fake the fun like a clown in a rodeo
Radio
Radio
Radio
Radio

5. Golden Age

He is a mountain of blood and stone
With no peak and no end in sight
An endless fountain turning dust to bone
The sun and the moon in the night
Like lightning and thunder He'll part the sky
The wind and the waves He controls
He owns the power to live or die
He is the collector of souls
Creator
Word after word
Page after page
Golden age
With just one breath He'll blow away
The lies and deceit formed below
He holds the earth and the Milky Way
In the palm of His hands, don't you know?

Creator
Word after word
Page after page
Golden age
You can see the signature written in the stars
Look around, you don't have to look far
Every cell and living thing is a work of art
Painted perfectly with all His wisdom and all it imparts
Creator
Word after word
Page after page
Golden age

6. Only You

Only you can make lightning
Light up the sky
And only you can make truth of this world
Full of lies
Every dark corner and every world
You know them all
You make them fall away
Hey yeah, Hey yeah
You can reach out to me
And I'll be there when you're lonely
For you only, only you
I can reach out to you
And you'll be there when I'm lonely
Who knows me, only, only you
You're that place I can go to
You're always there
When I wrestled my demons
You always care
Every stumble right here you stay
You take my fears and wash them all away
Hey yeah, hey yeah

You can reach out to me
And I'll be there when you're lonely
For you only, only you
I can reach out to you
And you'll be there when I'm lonely
Who knows me, only, only you
Only you
You can reach out to me
And I'll be there when you're lonely
For you only, only you
I can reach out to you
And you'll be there when I'm lonely
Who knows me, only, only you
You can reach out to me
And I'll be there when you're lonely
For you only, only you
I can reach out to you
And you'll be there when I'm lonely
Who knows me, only, only you
Yeah, yeah, yeah

7. I Am

I'm the light, the shining star
I'm the force to be
I'm the power that you've never seen
Take a thousand armies
Add a million more
I am infinite - the final war
Hear me
I am the beginning and the end
I'm the measurer of all things
Impossible to comprehend

I'm the great creator
I'm the warrior
The sunrise and sunset that you need
I'm the resolution
The answer to be
I'm the owner of your destiny
Hear me
I am the beginning and the end
I'm the measurer of all things
Impossible to comprehend
I am

8. Who Am I

I've been wanting to tell you
Who you are, what you mean to me
But this life gets in the way
And I'm just too blind to see
Don't you know you're everything
That this simple man will ever need
And when I look into your eyes
I can see my destiny
Who am I (Who am I) to take your love for granted
Who am I (Who am I) to make you feel obscure
Who am I
I forget to remember you
And it's just too many times
When you're trying to break through
I am reaching for the blinds

Baby don't give up on me
I can see the land and the shore in sight
I'm coming to reality
I can feel the touch of the light
Who am I (Who am I) to take your love for granted
Please tell me
Who am I (Who am I) to make you feel obscure
I apologize (Who am I) for inventing disenchantment
Into our lives (Who am I) to make you insecure
Who am I
Who am I (Who am I) to take your love for granted
Who am I (Who am I) to make you feel obscure
I apologize (Who am I) for inventing disenchantment
Into our lives (Who am I) to make you insecure
Who am I

9. You Make Me Wanna

Been running round and around with you
If you go down I will follow you
You make me wanna live
And you make we wanna give
Been flyin' high in the sky with you
When you go up I'm gonna get there too
You make me wanna move
And you make me wanna prove
No one makes me feel the way you do
No one makes my heart and soul come to
Baby but you do
Been dreamin' day in and out of you
I see your face in the light of June
You make me wanna feel
You make me wanna kneel

I want to live every life with you
Heaven and earth and any other too
You make me wanna love
Yes you make me wanna love
No one makes me feel the way you do
No one makes my heart and soul come to
Baby but you do
No one makes me feel the way you do
No one makes my heart and soul come to
No one makes me feel the way you do
No one makes my heart and soul come to
Baby but you do
Baby but you do
Baby but you do

10. Comfort Zone

I'd climb a mountain if it leads me back to you
I'd fly the galaxies if they lead me back to you
I'd sail across the sea if it leads me back to you
I'd walk eternity if it leads me back to you
I thought that I had everything
That I would want and I would need
But when I open up my eyes
Before me I can see that
You're my stone
You're my refuge, you're my home
I'm not alone
You always take me to the comfort zone

I'd fight a battle, take a bullet just for you
I'd fall a million times from the heavens to be with you
You're my peace, my hiding place
The place to rest my head
Every moment spent with you is like rising from the dead
You're my stone
You're my refuge, you're my home
I'm not alone
You always take me to the comfort zone

11. One Way Up

I remember walking the wrong side of the tracks as a kid
Looking for trouble in everything that I did
There was right and there was wrong
But I just didn't care at all
'Til I climbed so high and soon I began to fall

There's one way up, one way down
One way through and one way around
One way above and one way under the ground

Follow the leader we've all been there sometimes
We've heard the deceivers and believed their evil lines
But there's free will and it's a choice
Yet we don't always make it right
It's not always so easy, sometimes it's a bloody fight

There's one way up, one way down
One way through and one way around
One way above and one way under the ground

One way to live, one way to die
One way below and one way up high
One way to wrong and one way only to right

12. Can't Take This Life

[Bonus Track]

You'll never understand
I have got pushed far beyond
But you've evil I can comprehend

'Cause I'm rooted in your throne
My seeds have grown. I am a tree
With many branches

You can take this moment
But you can't take this life from me

So do just what you will
Make your plans and strategies
But ... your cruelness won't be spared

And so before you go
You have to pay in every way
For every single sadness...

You can take this moment
But you can't take this life

You can take this moment
But you can't take this life

You can take this moment
But you can't take this life
