Alright 04:09
If I don't die tonight I know I'm gonna live tomorrow If I don't die tonight I know tomorrow, tomorrow I'll be alive If I die tomorrow baby don't feel sorrow If I die tomorrow then at least we have tonight Alright I've heard better be buried than buried alive It could go both ways I guess If I'm barely alive don't bury me, I'd say barely surviving is best If I don't die tonight I know I'm gonna live tomorrow If I don't die tonight I know tomorrow, tomorrow I'll be alive If I die tomorrow baby don't feel sorrow If I die tomorrow then at least we have tonight Alright Tell me a secret, I'll sell you my soul Just don't tell a soul what I did Promise you'll keep it, bring it back whole I'll need it back after I'm dead I've met a very few girls that I'd marry Now one that has taken my breath If I don't die tonight I know I'm gonna live tomorrow If I don't die tonight I know tomorrow, tomorrow I'll be alive If I die tomorrow baby don't feel sorrow If I die tomorrow then at least we have tonight Alright

From the edge of the forest where I stood I could see the field and the shadows darkness took Past the meadow, by the brook, there was a man Bloody with a hole shot through each hand He was letting rusty life strip from his head Tending to the linen from his bed Looked like a man, I remembered, I'd forgot Said he, "might be inclined to have a talk" Said "no matter how much blood his eyes had saw He'd never let a drop spill of his flock" and he screamed, "oh lord" and spoke soft back to me said, "son, forget all you've been taught.... hell I did, it's been the best thing I forgot... go on forget I was here."

Took 04:10
Took a tip from a friend who said, 'speak your heart, You're never gonna find an end looking for an easy start And in the end, other than waiting, it's the hardest part. Go on, speak your heart, get it out of the way.' So I took a trip down to hell so I could feel alive, It was hotter than an angel with the devil's look in her eyes People racing in the cars to park hoping sparks will fly A lot like fourth of July.. .. . hey hey hey Said I'd rather have a roof over my head than a wall to notch, Shoes next to my bed and next to me when I walk, Be knew after I'm dead for more than what I've bought and when the gloves are off I'd rather love it all, then ever see love fall Some say the care is not quite worth the cost when we foster everything we hold, dear, she could take me down and I would caress my descent Took a tip from a friend who said sleep it off You can send all that energy out Or you can just calm down Sleep it off. Took a trip down to hell so I could feel alive I was hotter than the devil when the halo's took from his hide Hot like sparks is gonna fly but not like fourth of July.

All of your lives couldn't tear me away And you all turn to me when you want it to rain Like I haven't been watching you hearing you pray There's nothing to drink and our crops will not raise Lah dah dah You are our children and we hold you dear. You cook with our blood and you bathe in our tears here Who made you with love is who'll break you down, hear? Who made you with love is who'll break you down here. Who made you with love is who'll break you with fear. Hey hey hey

What was spoke about is broken now At least for the most part Took it out, took it down , took it all away. Was that breaking him down love, or just breaking him down. Threw it all into a pile, threw those hands way up, it was just too much. Through it all who grew a smile saying who never screwed up? who never blew up? Was that building him up, love? if that's building him up love, then he's uilt up enough love.. Let's play house.. Let's play Let's play love

I'm an energy converter I convert energy I can convert energy If what you look for follows you what you look toward swallows you I'm just looking to follow through just looking to follow too. what are you looking to fall into what are you looking to follow you home I'm a menace and a murderer I'm a genius, I'm a Saint Run alert the enemies - 100 men is ten of me If my enemies could hurt me, I'd be saying I have enemies. If my enemies could hurt me then a friend of me could certainly I'd be more dead than alive, begging it to call on me begging it to crawl on me, begging it to swallow me whole.
