Keeping Score

The daggers point right to me,
They're words that pierce right through me.
I'm just a man with a rolling stone,
And all I want to do is move it along.
And I know, and I know,
It's all so typical,
Did you know, did you see,
There was only one way this could go.
You finally got everything out,
But I'm not keeping score.
I gave it all til I gave out,
'Cause I'm not keeping score.
I can attest to the problem,
You can't sink or stop them,
Sometimes the truth takes time to see,
It doesn't care if you don't want to believe.
And I know, and I know,
We were waiting on a miracle,
Did you know, did you see,
There was only one way this could go.
You finally got everything out,
But I'm not keeping score.
I gave it all til I gave out,
'Cause I'm not keeping score.
Isn't it easier, isn't it easier,
Isn't it easier to find a way back home?
Isn't it easier, isn't it easier, no?
God I can feel it now, oh.
I gave it all til I gave out,
'Cause I'm not keeping score.
You finally got everything out,
But I'm not keeping score.
You finally got everything out,
But I'm not keeping score.
I gave it all til I gave out,
But I'm not keeping score.

Everything You Know

What you do isn’t Hollywood,
What you see isn’t understood,
All you need is a desert rose,
A desert rose, oh.
How you do it, you sing along,
Have a truth that you string along,
Crown the cons and you drown the pros,
You’re calling out, calling out, you’re calling out.
You feel low, with everything you know.
You feel low, with everything you know.
You feel low, with everything you know.
You know everything you know, is alright.
All these memories...
Did you do everything you could?
Got your nails and you’ve got your wood,
Open cans that you’ll never close, you’ll never close, oh,
How you doing?
You feel low, with everything you know.
You feel low, with everything you know.
You feel low, with everything you know.
You feel low, with everything you know, it’s alright.
It’s alright, it’s alright, yeah,
It’s alright, it’s alright, yeah.
You feel low, with everything you know.
You feel low, with everything you know.
You feel low, with everything you know.
You feel low, it’s alright.
You feel low, with everything you know.
You feel low, with everything you know.
You feel low, with everything you know.
It’s alright.

You Said It All

Save yourself,
You know there's something,
Are you made of stone?
Can you bury this feeling?
Save yourself,
Cause no one’s listening,
You’ll fight alone,
You’ll find a way.
You know they’ll never know,
They’ll never be there.
So never let it go,
And don’t surrender.
Don’t you know,
That I’d never stay by that phone,
You’ve said it, you said it, you said it all.
Come what may,
You put yourself in your way.
You said it, you said it, you said it all.
Ring that bell,
No winner’s waiting,
You don’t seem well,
Insinuating.
There is an undertow,
With no returning.
With everything I know,
The years are burning.
It’s a cold night,
But better I knew,
Oh how you waste my time.
Said alright,
I better renew,
Cause you won’t see that beam in your eye.
Oh don’t you know,
That I’d never stay by that phone.
Oh don’t you know,
That I’d never stay by that phone,
You’ve said it, you said it, you said it all.
Come what may,
You put yourself in your way.
You said it, you said it, you said it all.

Walk Away

By myself, by myself,
The future’s feeling wide open,
The memory drifts in with stealth,
And shines a light on what is broken.
Right inside, right inside,
All the words that you’ve spoken.
Oh release them outside,
Cause what I heard has got me choking.
Rage in the night,
But it’s always the same,
And I call you to stay by my side.
When you stay by the light,
You get burned by the flame.
Would you walk away, walk away, this time?
This time.
In my sight, in my sight,
There’s a fleeting horizon.
It’s going to take all my might,
To get these dreams realizing.
Rage in the night,
But it’s always the same,
And I call you to stay by my side.
When you stay by the light,
You get burned by the flame.
Would you walk away, walk away, this time?
This time.
Oh...
