Some Sort Of Creature

I saw a sort of gypsy, hippy lady
With her daughter
And uh,
They were both carrying some sort of, like rodent
That had a tail
That looked like wooden
So I thought they were carrying wood
Bbut it turns out it was some sort of creature
And I have no idea what it was
It really blew my mind

Soul Wars

Yeah!
1, 2, 3
Do you love me?
Watch me scream
Burning on the trees
In amazement
'Cause I'm on fire
You know?

4, 5, 6
Show ya all my tricks
Fee Fii Fo
A giant's at the door
In amazement
'Cause I'm on fire

Ooh (Ooh)
Ooh (Ooh)
'Cause I'm on fire

Can I get an amen
For all the bleeding and the prayin?
I had to struggle to be gracious
Now we can touch it
We can taste it
Can I get a little amen?
No more running from the hangman
Now I'm the pilot of this spaceship
So you can touch it
You can taste it

Taste the smoke

Taste the smoke

Taste the smoke
This is no joke
Fifteen years
Blood, sweat, and tears
And amazement
'Cause I'm on fire

It's a cruel, cruel world
For good boys and girls
A hot day in heaven,
5, 6, and 7
And amazement
'Cause I'm on fire

With no hope from the devil

Can I get an amen
For all the bleeding and the prayin?
I had to struggle to be gracious
Now we can touch it
We can taste it
Can I get a little amen?
No more running from the hangman
Now I'm the pilot of this spaceship
So you can touch it
You can taste it

It'll be OK, baby

Oo, Ha
Oo, Ha
Oo, Ha
Oo, Ha

We don't run, run, run
We don't run, run, run

Can I get an amen
For all the bleeding and the prayin?
I had to struggle to be gracious
Now we can touch it
We can taste it
Can I get a little amen?
No more running from the hangman
Now I'm the pilot of this spaceship
So you can touch it
You can taste it

We don't run, run, run
We don't run, run, run

Burn It Down

If you're feeling like I feel then run your life like it's a dance floor
And if you need a little heat in your face, that's what I'm here for
If you're chilling in the dark and you're looking through a telescope
You will see me sipping on a soul of a new hope

So burn it down, burn it down

So burn it down, burn it down baby burn it burn it down
Burn it down, burn it down baby burn it burn it down
Burn it down, burn it down baby burn it burn it down
Burn it down, burn it down baby burn it burn it down

If you're feeling like I feel throw your fist through the ceiling
Some people call it crazy well I call it healing
If you need love turn around, do the helicopter
If you're sick, baby girl I would love to be your doctor

So burn it down, burn it down
So burn it down, burn it down, yeah
So burn it down, burn it down baby burn it burn it down
Burn it down, burn it down baby burn it burn it down

Looking through a window made of time, would you have the courage not to lie
Looking down the barrel of today, would that make you turn around and stay
Looking through a window made of time, would you have the courage not to lie

Down
Burn it down
Hey, burn it down

So burn it down, burn it down baby burn it burn it down

Guilty Filthy Soul

I'm running out of faith
Be careful who you tell
[x2]

She's blackening my name
My army never came
its water under the bridge
be careful who you tell

cause you gotta look her in the eye
and you gotta love your way of life
cause you gotta guilty, filthy soul
don't ya know its out of your control

she's blackening my name
I know you feel the same
its water under the bridge
be careful who you tell

stop squeezing on my neck
your unemployment check
its water under the bridge
Be careful who you tell

cause you gotta look her in the eye
and you gotta love your way of life
cause you gotta guilty, filthy soul
don't ya know its out of your control

waiting on a blood line
you can find some free time
look at who you're hating
now your celebrating

waiting on a blood line
you can find some time

waiting on a blood line [x3]

She's blackening my name
My army never came
its water under the bridge
be careful who you tell

cause you gotta look her in the eye
and you gotta love your way of life
cause you gotta guilty, filthy soul
don't ya know its out of your control

Kill Your Heroes

Well I met an old man
dying on a train.
No more destination
no more pain.
Well he said
"one thing, before I graduate...
never let your fear decide your fate."

I say ya kill your heroes and
fly, fly, baby don't cry.
No need to worry cause
everybody will die.
Every day we just
go, go, baby don't go.
Don't you worry we
love you more than you know.

Well the sun one day will
leave us all behind.
Unexplainable sightings
in the sky.
Well I hate to be
the one to ruin the night.
Right before your, right before your eyes.

I say ya kill your heroes and
fly, fly, baby don't cry.
No need to worry cause
everybody will die.
Every day we just
go, go, baby don't go.
Don't you worry we
love you more than you know.

Sail

Sail
This is how I show my love
I made it in my mind because
Blame it on my ADD baby

This is how an angel dies
Blame it on my own sick pride
Blame it on my ADD baby

Sail, sail
Sail, sail, sail

Maybe I should cry for help
Maybe I should kill myself (myself)
Blame it on my ADD baby

Maybe I'm a different breed
Maybe I'm not listening
So blame it on my ADD baby

Do you have a name?
'Cause I would like to teach you, baby

When the sharks are swimming

Yeah, you
I'm a little shocked
'Cause I can see the future
Lookin' through your eyes
Tonight
Don't you fall asleep
Don't you fall
It's only gonna take a little time

Before we start to lose our minds
We're leavin' all the haters behind
Before the sun decides to hide
I know you think I'm maybe out of line
I'm scared to love what we love most
It's only gonna take a little time
Before we start to lose our minds
Wake

Well it's nice to know ya
Have you learned to fly?
'Cause I would like to show ya, baby

'Cause I can live today
Before I say goodbye

Before we start to lose our minds

Take some time to breathe
Let's take some time to breathe
From the desert to the sea
It's the same for you and me
When you say you'd rather bleed
Is it really what you're thinking
Let's take some time to breathe
Out, yeah
It's only gonna take a little time

Before we start to lose our minds
We're leavin' all the haters behind
Before the sun decides to hide
I know you think I'm maybe out of line
I'm scared to love what we love most

Before we start to lose our minds
Wake

Not Your Fault

She was built with a brain
and some swagger.
A little scream, little cry,
little laughter.
She's a ten,
I'm a joke in my own mind.
But she still loves to dance
with my punch lines.

This love found us
now I see it.
This love up down.
Please believe.

Baby, when I'm yellin' at you,
It's not your fault
It's not your fault, yeah and

Oh, it's not that you should care.
I just wanted you to know.

I'm a fight with myself
till I'm bleeding.
Just a taste of your skin
starts the healing.
Anyone from my past
get your ammo.
Find my sun in the dark side
of my shadow.

This love found us
now I see it.
This love up down.
Please believe.

Baby, when I'm yellin' at you,

All I Need

All I need, all all I need,
All I need, all all I need,
All I need, all all I need...

It's early in the morning,
I'm laughing at the sun.
My mirror disappoints me.
Am I the only one?

All I need, all all I need,
All I need, all all I need,
All I need, all all I need...
Is you
smiling
at me, all all I need,
All I need, all all I need,
All I need, all all I need...
is life, love
with you

I think I'm getting closer
but the scenery's the same.
Am I a disappointment?
I'll blame it on the pain.
It's

All I need, all all I need,
All I need, all all I need,
All I need, all all I need...
Is you
smiling
at me, all all I need,
All I need, all all I need,
All I need, all all I need...
is life, love
with you

All I need is you
is all I need,
if you could simply believe
in me and we would be forever
together

All I need, all all I need,
All I need, all all I need,
All I need, all all I need...
Is you

But one of the fires lit made her piss
Calling all zombies

Transformin' vampires
Right beside me
And you can't run
'Cause, you did, you'd be dead
And them walls can't roll from the side of my head
I beat the ghoul
My beats are cool
But here's last kiss
All suckers

I can't entertain with a beat up human
Lay waste to cities
Leave towns in ruin

Uh, yeah, let's toast to the memory
I wrote my name in the sky, so remember me
Baby, forever we

The day I leave me baby over somethin'
Then hell'll freeze
Froze
This world Cole, like Natalie
So
Let's lose our clothes like Adam Eve
Back to the basics
Step out the matrix
Step out your cool
Baby, get on my spaceship
I seen her face lit
She seen a sign like a Mason
So we ran home like a base hit
Safe
Life is whatever you think it is
Yo, what you think this is?

Uh, yeah it's all in your mind baby
You gotta do what you feel, like a blind lady
You gotta spread your wings and just fly, baby
It feel like you're reborn?
That's my baby
She said she feel it in her soul like a vibrator
I got some things for your thoughts we can try later
Let's hit the dance floor
Right before we out of time
And just party like it's 1999
You know what Prince said
Girl, you my princess
I got the glass slipper
I hope the thing fits
Your body on fire
Let me extinguish
Hop on this white horse
Ride to the sunset

Is anybody really
Out

Breath-

Sick
