Love And Theft Album

Need to move I need to breathe
Shake the things that pull on me
Holdin' me down
Slowin' me down
I need to run i need to fly
let go of the thiings that I
I'm holdin' onto
maybe i need to
just open up my eyes so i can see
whats always been there right in front of me

[Chorus]
Roads
which one will I take
in this world wide open
this world wide open
marks
which one will I make
in this world wide open
this world wide open

Every day is an open page
a brand new start a fresh clean slate
given to me
now its up to me
find my best to lose my worst
I try to heal the things I hurt
but I don't mean to
I know I need to
make my mistakes and leave them in the past
make the most of every chance I have

[Chorus]

I'm gunna grab it by both handles and drink
as it's spilling over me
as it's spilling over me

[Chorus]x2

It's been a long week, I've got a slow leak in my left front tire.
I'm sick of where I work. My boss is such a jerk, dont care if I get fired.
My backs about to break, no money in the bank, and she don't call me anymore.
I'm down to my last ring, it's time to sell my things,

CHORUS:
And pack my bags, and never look back, run a parallel line with the railroad tracks, and make my get away.
I put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down.
Leave everybody sleepin in this sleepy town tonight, and at the break of day, I'll be a runaway!

A hundred miles in, I got a stupid grin on my scruffy face.
With every cigarettte, I'm buryin my regrets.
Dont want to leave a trace.
And from the rear-view, I've got clear view, of who I used to be.
A little bit faster now, don't wanna turn around.

I'm gonna pack my bags, and never look back.
Run a parallel line with the railroad tracks, and make my get away.
I put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down.
Leave everybody sleepin in this sleepy town tonight.
And at the break of day, I'll be a runaway! I'll be a runaway!

It's crazy, I know, to count on this road and give me what I need.
But with every state line, somehow I find, another part of me.
Yeah-e-yeah!

I'm gonna pack my bags, and never look back.
Run a parallel line with the railroad tracks, and make my get away.
I put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down.
Leave everybody sleepin in this sleepy town tonight, and at the break of day, I'll be a runaway! I'll be a runaway! I'll be a runaway!

I don't understand why we do what we do to each other
According to His Word, we're all born sisters and brothers
But we live and we still
We lie and we kill
Even though we know the way...

Why do we go dancin' in circles?
When we know it never ends
We come so close to loving each other and then
We go dancin' in circles again

All through the ages we've tried to share this world together
We turning the pages
Pretending we'll live here forever
We'll come to face our Maker someday
And we'll put his stone on the way

Why do we go dancin' in circles?
When we know it never ends
We come so close to loving each other and then
We go dancin' in circles again

We know how so why can't we just get along
And I pray someday we'll overcome
All the damage we've done
And we'll find...

Why do we go dancin' in circles?
When we know it never ends
We come so close
So close to living His lamb
Loving each other like sisters and brothers and then
We go dancin' in circles again

Oh... yeah

Right now you got it made
Got everybody fooled
Got everything you want
It's all about you
No one's figured out
That all your lies are true

CHORUS:
Hey, whatcha gonna do
When the whole world
Turns around on you
Hey, whatcha gonna say
When the bombs you're
Throwing
Start heading your way
I've tried to be the friend
The friend you've never been
But I'm running out of things
To do
I can't change the way you are
It's up to you, it's up to you

I see you standing there
A rock in your hand
Before you throw that thing
You need to understand
That this house is made of glass
So get out while you can
Yeah, Yeah

CHORUS:
Hey, whatcha gonna do
When the whole world
Turns around on you
Hey, whatcha gonna say
When the bombs you're
Throwing
Start heading your way
I've tried to be the friend
The friend you've never been
But I'm running out of things
To do
I can't change the way you are
It's up to you, it's up to you

The tide is coming in
Let me know, when you're
Ready to begin
I'm here, I've known you
Much to long
To give up now

CHORUS:
Hey, whatcha gonna do
When the whole world
Turns around on you
Hey, whatcha gonna say
When the bombs you're
Throwing
Start heading your way
I've tried to be the friend
The friend you've never been
But I'm running out of things
To do
I can't change the way you are
It's up to you, it's up to you

Hey whatcha gonna do
When the whole world
Turns around on you
Hey, whatcha gonna say
When the bombs you're
Throwing
Start heading your way
Hey, whatcha gonna do

Some people try to hide
They try to move on
Can't stand the pain of you gone but baby that's not me
I'd never try to ease the ache that I feel the pain
Reminds me how real this love has come to be

And I'm not running scared
I will stay right where
I gave you my word
That I would be

And I don't want to hurt
But I know I have to feel
I do it to be close to you
Just to keep you real
And I don't want to cry
But tears are part of life they conquer the impossible
And make you feel alive
And I'm so glad, my love
That I have you to miss

Some people try to fake
They don't feel this
Can't stand to face the realness so they just run away oh,
But I want nothing more than you to hold me
So intimately know me
So I'll hurt along the way

And I'm not running scared I will stay right where
I gave you my word
That I would be

And I don't want to hurt
But I know I have to feel
I do it to be close to you
Just to keep you real
And I don't want to cry
But tears are part of life they conquer the impossible
And make you feel alive
And I'm so glad, my love
That I have you to miss

And it could never hurt so bad that I would trade the love we have
And it could never cut so deep that I would never want to leave

And I don't want to hurt
But I know I have to feel
I do it to be close to you
Just to keep you real
And I don't want to cry
But tears are part of life they conquer the impossible
And make you feel alive
And I'm so glad, my love
That I have you to miss

I'm so glad, my love that I have you to miss
And I'm glad my love that I have you to miss

[No lyrics]

You took down your heart.
And broke down the wall.
Even though I thought that I had seen it all.
The waters till.
It looks so clear.
Gonna get lost inside and I will disappear.
But now I only wanna hide away.

Chorus
Don't wake me I'm in deep.
Don't wake me I feel weak.
I've tasted now I'm wasted and I can't let go.
Your love is all I wanna know.

And I pray beyond the stars.
That you and me will stay just like we are.
And I don't care if its all a dream
But that's where I am and where I wanna be.
But now I only wanna hide away.

Chorus
Don't wake me I'm in deep.
Don't wake me I feel weak.
I've tasted now I'm wasted and I can't let go.
Your love is all I wanna know.

And I can promise you anything .
Cause I don't know what love's gonna bring.
So stay with me in this dream.
Cause when I come around when I come around.
I'll not be another way.

Chorus
Don't wake me I'm in deep.
Don't wake me I feel weak.
I've tasted now I'm wasted and I can't let go.
Your love is all I wanna know.

You took down your heart.
And broke down the wall.
Even though I thought that I had seen it all.

I cover my eyes as the
Sun's pouring in
No, I never thought
Last night would end
And there's smoke in the house
I woke up on the couch again

I got nowhere to go and
No one to see
The birds out my window are
Singing to me
And I don't know their song
So I hum along out of key
And this place sure feels haunted
I guess I got what I wanted
Freedom

This three dollar coffee
It sure tastes like hell
But I don't have to answer to
Anyone else
I just sit here in peace
Till I wanna leave,oh well

And I'm here without you
Where I wanted to be
I guess I got what was
Coming to me
Freedom, freedom

Me and the dreamers
Burning up the midnight sky
Foolish believers
Throw it all away and
Wave goodbye

I open my eyes as the
Sun's going down
All by myself
There's nobody around

So this is freedom, so this is
Freedom
This is freedom, this is freedom
This is free.

Life I need to talk to you
Can you spare a minute just tell me what to do
I'm trying to climb this hill
I can feel you pass me by like I'm standing still
The things I gotta do I'm feeling you leaving me behind
And I know I don't wanna go down this road alone and I'm running out of time
Chorus:
So slow down you're losing me
And I can't see what you want me to be
So slow down cause all I know is that I can't go as fast as you've got me spinning round
I'm barely hanging on, slow down
Life the moments pass me by
Memories that I can't keep as hard as I may try
Life you're so beautiful
I wish it wasn't so but I can only stay until
You say I gotta go
God only knows when that's gonna be
With all my might I'm trying to keep up with you
Now you're running away from me

Like a thundercloud without a chance of rain
Like a stretch of sandy beach without the waves
It's like I'm spinning my wheels
Down a lonely interstate...
Me Without You

It's a picture perfect sky without a view
It's an empty seat at a table for two
It's having all the time in the world
And nothing to do...
Me Without You

I've been loving you so long
I'm a leaf lost in the wind
I want to be so strong
But I don't know how to begin
So I keep holding on
Cause I don't know what else to do
I try to be, but I'm not me
Without you

It's a beautiful song to be sung
But nowhere to sing
It's this beat up old guitar missing a string
It's me calling in the middle of the night
And it just rings
Me without you

I've been loving you so long
I'm a leaf lost in the wind
I want to be so strong
But I don't know how to begin
So I keep holding on
Cause I don't know what else to do
I try to be, but I'm not me
Without you

Baby, tonight I'm gonna light your favorite candles
And open a bottle of my favorite Spanish wine
Gonna listen to the song that we made love to the first time
It's all I can do
It's all I can do...

I've been loving you so long
I'm a leaf lost in the wind
I want to be so strong
But I don't know how to begin
So I keep holding on
Cause I don't know what else to do
I try to be, but I'm not me
Without you

I can try to be, but I'm not me without you.

Searching for something, can't seem to find
The blood on your fingers, still on my mind
And I just wish I could forgive you
Walking for days now, there's nowhere to go
Chasing horizons, being alone
I don't know where I should run to

Let the sun rise on me and never fade away
So save me I'm drowning alive
And keep me from dying inside
I only want to find my way back home
But I can't make it alone

Caught in a landslide with nowhere to hide
Chasing distractions empty inside
I'm still waiting for salvation
Let the sun light lift me and never fade away

So save me I'm drowning alive
And keep me from dying inside
I only want to find my way back home
But I can't make it alone
No I can't make it alone

I've got to hold on, I've got to be strong
Can't give up now, I've got to move on
I've got nothing left, so show me the way
I don't think I'm gonna last one more day

So save me I'm drowning alive
And keep me from dying inside
I only want to find my way back home
But I can't make it alone
No I can't make it alone
I'll never make it alone
