(Lyrics to the Full Album on one page)

Cannonball

Break down
Break down

Break down
I was scared to death I was losing my mind
Break down
I couldn't close my eyes I was pacing all night, oh, no,
I think I found the light at the end of the tunnel (and my doubts)
I couldn't find the truth I was going under

But I won't hide inside
I gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out
Lonely inside and light the fuse
Light it now, light it now, light it now

And now I will start living today, today, today
I close the door
I got this new beginning and I will fly
I'll fly like a cannonball, like a cannonball, like a cannonball
I'll fly, I'll fly, I'll fly like a cannonball

Freedom
I let go of fear and the peace came quickly
Freedom
I was in the dark and then it hit me
I chose suffering and pain in the falling rain
I know, I gotta get out into the world again

But I won't hide inside
I gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out
Lonely inside and light the fuse
Light it now, light it now, light it now

And now I will start living today, today, today
I close the door
I got this new beginning and I will fly
I'll fly like a cannonball, like a cannonball, like a cannonball
I'll fly, I'll fly, I'll fly like a cannonball

Break down
I was scared to death I was losing my mind
Break down
I gotta get out into the world again

And now I will start living today, today, today
I close the door
I got this new beginning and I will fly
I'll fly like a cannonball, like a cannonball, like a cannonball
I'll fly, I'll fly, I'll fly like a cannonball, like a cannonball, like a cannonball
I'll fly, I'll fly, I'll fly like a cannonball

On My Way

My words are wrapped in barbwire
My actions speak for what I can't say
'Cause I fall one step forward
To push you away, push you away

I wish that I could listen
To all the advice that I give away
But it's hard to see things clearly
Through all of the pain, all of the pain

I'm caught in the rain, caught in the rain

And my heart's too drunk to drive
I should stay away from you tonight
But in this blackout state of mind
Baby all I want is you tonight

When my head tells me "no"
My heart tells me "go"
So I'm hitting in the road 'cause I

I know my heart's too drunk to drive
But I'm on my way to you
Yeah, I'm on my way
To you, you, to you tonight
I'm on my way to you, you
To you, I'm on my way

There's a million voices
Screaming that this love's a dead-end road
But the only voice that I hear
Is telling me "go", telling me "go"

The sun is rising sober
While passion fades and I'm on my own
My helpless heart's hangover
I'm all out of hope, all out of hope

Where do we go? Where do we go?

Cause my heart's too drunk to drive
I should stay away from you tonight
But in this blackout state of mind
Baby all I want is you tonight

When my head tells me "no"
My heart tells me "go"
So I'm hitting the road 'cause I

I know my heart's too drunk to drive
But I'm on my way to you
Yeah, I'm on my way
To you, you, to you tonight
I'm on my way to you, you
To you, I'm on my way

And no one's words can stop me
I'm past the point of no return
No matter how it hurts me
I'm running to you, running to you

And my heart's too drunk to drive
I should stay away from you tonight
But in this blackout state of mind
Baby all I want is you tonight

When my head tells me "no"
My heart tells me "go"
So I'm hitting the road 'cause I

I know my heart's too drunk to drive
But I'm on my way to you
Yeah, I'm on my way
To you, you, to you tonight
I'm on my way to you, you
To you, I'm on my way to you

Burn With You

We are broken
We can't fix it
There's no cure for our condition
Desperate eyes are staring at me
Should be hopeless but we're happy
It's not perfect here between us
Even angels have their demons
Trapped inside this twisted circle
It ain't right but it's eternals

There's a white light
And it's calling me
And it's promising ecstasy
But I don't wanna go to heaven
If you're going to hell
I will burn with you
I will burn with you

We're not happy
But we're breathing
But this pain keeps my heart beating
We are lost when we're together
But I'll follow you forever

There's a white light
And it's calling me
And it's promising ecstasy
But I don't wanna go to heaven
If you're going to hell
I will burn with you
I will burn with you

But I don't wanna go to heaven
If you're going to hell
I will burn with you
I will burn with you

I don't wanna dream without you
I don't wanna be without you
I'll do anything you want me to
Cause I know you'll burn with me too
I don't wanna dream without you
I don't wanna be without you
I'll do anything you want me to
Cause I know you'll burn with me too

There's a white light
And it's calling me
And it's promising ecstasy
But I don't wanna go to heaven
If you're going to hell
I will burn with you
I will burn with you

But I don't wanna go to heaven
If you're going to hell
I will burn with you
I will burn with you

I don't wanna go to heaven
If you're going to hell
I will burn with you
I will burn with you

I don't wanna dream without you
I don't wanna be without you
I'll do anything you want me to
Cause I know you'll burn with me too
I don't wanna dream without you
I don't wanna be without you
I'll do anything you want me to
Cause I know you'll burn with me too

There's a white light
And it's calling me

Battlefield

It's easy to fall in love
But it's so hard to break somebody's heart
What seemed like a good idea has turned into a battlefield
Once lust has turned to dust and all that's left's held breath
Forgotten who we first met
What seemed like a good idea has turned into a battlefield

We both know it's coming
Does illusion count for something we hide?
The surface tension's gotta break, one drop is all it takes to flood out this lie

You and I
We have to let each other go
We keep holding on but we both know
What seemed like a good idea has turned into a battlefield
Peace will come when one of us puts down the gun
Be strong for both of us
No please, don't run, don't run
Eye to eye, we face our fears unarmed on the battlefield

We seemed like a good idea
We seemed like a good idea

No blood will spill if we both get out now
Still it's hard to put the fire out
What seemed like a good idea has turned into a battlefield
Feelings are shifting like the tide
And I think too much about the future
What seemed like a good idea has turned into a battlefield

We both know it's coming
Does illusion count for something we hide?
The surface tension's gotta break, one drop is all it takes to flood out this lie

You and I
We have to let each other go
We keep holding on but we both know
What seemed like a good idea has turned into a battlefield

Peace will come when one of us puts down the gun
Be strong for both of us
No please, don't run, don't run
Eye to eye, we face our fears unarmed on the battlefield

We seemed like a good idea
We seemed like a good idea
We seemed like a good idea

You're Mine

You were insecure but I was so sure
But I wanted you
Yes I'm powerful, and a little girl
But I wanted you
So I told you so, wanted you to know
We've just one life to live

And I told you all my dreams and fears
And you looked at me and your eyes filled with tears
And you said those three words I'd been waiting for
You became a part of me, yeah

You're mine, for life
And I'll be by your side
We are entwined
You're mine, for life,
Hold me until we die,
I'm yours and you are mine

I'm yours (I'm yours, I'm yours)
You're mine (You're mine, you're mine)
I'm yours (I'm yours, I'm yours)
You're mine (You're mine, you're mine)

Now I'm so happy you found a place for me
Boy you wanted me
Some security and two heartbeats
Boy you wanted me
Then you told me so, wanted me to know
You let the past go

And I told you all my dreams and fears
And you looked at me and your eyes filled with tears
And you said those three words I'd been waiting for
You became a part of me, yeah

You're mine, for life
And I'll be by your side
We are entwined
You're mine, for life,
Hold me until we die,
I'm yours and you are mine

I'm yours (I'm yours, I'm yours)
You're mine (You're mine, you're mine)
I'm yours (I'm yours, I'm yours)
You're mine (You're mine, you're mine)

I'm yours, you're mine,
I'm yours, you're mine

Thousand Needles

Waves are breaking in a storm
Tornado sweep me off the floor
See only darker skies in sight
You wanna know what's that like
Like thousand needles in my heart
Whenever time sets us apart
And now my world just crashing down
Now that I can't have you around

Oh why you wanna break away
I'm bleeding
I can see you're now in shades of grey
My memory fading
Oh why you wanna break away
I'm bleeding
I can see you're now in shades of grey
My memory fading

Running fast in hell in rain
The summer tell me I'm insane
Throw a reason out the door
Will make a difference no more
A thousand needles in my heart
Show me the painful from the start
You're wasted, not packing our day
The day before you walked away

Oh why you wanna break away
I'm bleeding
I can see you're now in shades of grey
My memory fading
Oh why you wanna break away
I'm bleeding
I can see you're now in shades of grey
My memory fading

(A thousand needles in my heart)
(A thousand needles in my heart)
(A thousand needles in my heart)

Oh why you wanna break away
I'm bleeding
I can see you're now in shades of grey
My memory fading
Oh why you wanna break away
I'm bleeding
I can see you're now in shades of grey
My memory fading

Louder

Come out of the shadow
Step into the light
This could be the moment
Are you ready to fight?
Don't you know, you know
You're not the only one
Why so low, so low
What are you waiting for
All I ever hear are whispers
All I ever hear are whispers

But I just wanna hear your voice
Don't be afraid
Why don't you scream a little louder
Turn it up
I know you can
Come on and scream a little louder

Oh, oh-hoh, oh-hoh,
Why don't you scream a little louder
Oh, oh-hoh, oh-hoh,
Why don't you scream a little louder

Wanna be remembered?
Stand out in the crowd
Don't choke on the fire
It's tryin' to burn you out
Why so low, so low
What are you waiting for
All I ever hear are whispers
All I ever hear are whispers

But I just wanna hear your voice
Don't be afraid
Why don't you scream a little louder
Turn it up
I know you can
Come on and scream a little louder

Oh, oh-hoh, oh-hoh,
Why don't you scream a little louder
Oh, oh-hoh, oh-hoh,
Why don't you scream a little louder

Come out of the shadow
Step into the light
This could be the moment
It could change your life
All I ever hear are whispers

But I just wanna hear your voice
Don't be afraid
Why don't you scream a little louder
Turn it up
I know you can
Come on and scream a little louder

Oh, oh-hoh, oh-hoh,
Why don't you scream a little louder

Turn it up
I know you can
Why don't you scream a little louder
Oh, oh-hoh, oh-hoh,
Why don't you scream a little louder

Cue The Rain

How many times have I driven this road
On my way home
It's always the same
So many people just stand in the line
They're chasing the lights
But losing their way
And I find myself looking for you
Yeah, I find myself looking for you, looking for you

The city was on fire for us
We would've died for us
Up in flames
Cue the rain
In my heart little sparks everywhere that you are
Up in flames
Cue the rain

Head lights and tail lights they all look the same
We come and we go
Need something to chase
Hard to remember what we left behind
But you're hand in mine is hard to erase
And I find myself looking for you
Yeah, I find myself looking for you, looking for you

The city was on fire for us
We would've died for us
Up in flames
Cue the rain
In my heart little sparks everywhere that you are
Up in flames
Cue the rain

And I'll stay, yeah, anything but okay
And I'll fade tonight

The city was on fire for us
We would've died for us
Up in flames
Cue the rain
Cue the rain

Why can't I stay?
Save it away

And I find myself looking for you
Yeah, I find myself looking for you

The city was on fire for us
We would've died for us
Up in flames
Cue the rain
In my heart little sparks everywhere that you are
Up in flames
Cue the rain

And I'll stay, yeah, anything but okay
And I'll fade tonight

The city was on fire for us
We would've died for us
Up in flames
Cue the rain

Don't Let Go

Shadows above the sand
I waited so long to hold your hand
Familiar rode, helpless, just acting stupid like kids
Was so distracted, yeah we've been careless
It's not too late

Baby open your eyes
And hold on tight
Just keep running and we can stay up all night
Don't let go
Don't let go
Flying high as a kite no ground below
Got me up in the sky running don't let go, don't let go

Sometimes the notions freight
Like the tiny little heart breaks
Something that can't explain
Just writing stupid lie kids
I'm so impatient
And it's so reckless
It's not too late

Baby open your eyes
And hold on tight
Just keep running and we can stay up all night
Don't let go
Don't let go
Flying high as a kite no ground below
Got me up in the sky running don't let go, don't let go

I know you pull, pull, pull on each other
Sometimes we spin spin out of control
But there's a string holding us together
Just gotta catch that and here we go

Baby open your eyes
And hold on tight
Just keep running and we can stay up all night
Don't let go
Don't let go
Flying high as a kite no ground below
Got me up in the sky running don't let go, don't let go

I know you pull, pull, pull on each other
Sometimes we spin spin, yeah
I know you pull, pull, pull on each other
Sometimes we spin spin, yeah
I know you pull, pull, pull on each other
Sometimes we spin spin, yeah

Empty Handed

If I came to you empty handed
A barren ocean with nothing at all
And if I came to you empty hearted
Searching for pieces after the fall

All I've ever known is how to hide a secret
But I'm tired of going on without believing
And love is not illusion, love illuminates the blind

If I fell into you, would it be close enough?
If I finally let you in, would you show me what love is?
If I had nothing to give

If you came to me empty handed
I'd bring the ocean to bring you home
And if you came to me empty hearted
I'd find the pieces to make you whole

If I fell into you, would it be close enough?
If I finally let you in, would you show me what love is?
If I had nothing to give

If I am a promise, will you let me break again?
I will be your compass, I will only let you bend

All I've ever known is how to hide a secret
But I'm tired of going on without believing
And love is not illusion, love illuminates the blind

If I fell into you, would it be close enough?
If I finally let you in, would you show me what love is?
If I had nothing to give

If I had nothing to give

If You Say So

It's been seven whole days, seven whole days
Since you paralyzed me.
Seven whole days, seven whole days
Since you lost your fight.
And I can't get the last words that you said,
Can't get those words out of my head.
Seven whole days, seven whole days
And four words.

And I can't get away from the burning pain,
I lie awake.
And the fallen hero haunts my thoughts,
How could you leave me this way?

[Chorus]
It's been seven whole days
Without your embrace.
I want to see your face,
I got some things to say.
Was just a week ago,
You said, "I love you girl."
I said, "I love you more."
Then a breath, a pause, you said,
If you say so.
If you say so.
If you say so.
If you say so.

It's been seven whole days, seven whole days
Since I heard the phone ring.
Seven whole days, seven whole days
Since I heard your voice.
And I can't get the last words that you say,
Can't get those words out of my head.
It's been seven whole days, seven whole days
Of pure hurt.

And I can't get away from the burning pain,
I lie awake.
And the fallen hero haunts my thoughts,
How could you leave me this way?

[Chorus]
It's been seven whole days
Without your embrace.
I want to see your face,
I got some things to say.
Was just a week ago,
You said, "I love you girl."
I said, "I love you more."
Then a breath, a pause, you said,
If you say so.
If you say so.
If you say so.
If you say so.

I can't believe it's true,
I keep looking for you,
I check my phone and wait
To hear from you.
In the crowded room
The joker is so cruel.

And now I'll never know,
If all I've been told
Is just a lie so bold,
I thought we would grow old.
Mirrors in the smoke
Left me here to choke.

[Chorus]
It's been seven whole days
Without your embrace.
I want to see your face,
I got some things to say.
Was just a week ago,
You said, "I love you girl."
I said, "I love you more."
Then a breath, a pause, you said,
If you say so.
If you say so.
If you say so.
If you say so.

What Is Love

(Deluxe Edition Bonus Track)

Done chasing, why you chasing?
Something else
I can't take it anymore
Done lying for the truth to...come out of your mouth
When the answers scream loud
You play the role
I play the lead
We strike a pose
I was too blind to see
This ain't what it seems

What is love?
What is love?
When you don't know who you lying next to, to you anymore
What is love?
What is love?
You don't know what love is till you love somebody, bad enough
What is love?
What is love?
What is love?
What is love?
What is love? Love...to you

It's madness, like an earthquake
They chase your soul
Then you're left with all destruction
You're frozen and you don't change
Who's gonna save us now?
Cause I can't stay this way for long

You play the role
I play the lead
We strike a pose
I was too blind to see
This ain't what it seems

What is love?
What is love?
When you don't know who you lying next to, to you anymore
What is love?
What is love?
You don't know what love is till you love somebody, bad enough
What is love?
What is love?
What is love?
What is love?
What is love? Love...to you

What is love?
What is love?
What is love?
What is love?
What is love? Love...to you

Gone Tonight

(Deluxe Edition Bonus Track)

How did I get hungover without a drink
Why are my eyes so bloodshot
Why do they sting
Sometimes we get so angry
It just keeps coming
How do we stop
Wanna stop
Wanna stop

Oh, we claw and we fall
and we doubt along the way
We've been misunderstood
Yeah, it hurts with this fear and pain

But it's gone tonight
Nothing in the way
Go forward, forward
Nothing not to say
It's our world, our world
Trouble's gone tonight
Right under the bridge like water, water
Promising to love you harder, harder, harder

I'm without this raw emotion
Fresh in my mind
I'm gonna play you
Make you take all your time
Sometimes it feels so fatal
We survived it
Never stop, never stop, never stop

I lost, never thought
that I'd doubt you along the way
I'll take the bad for the good
Gonna hurt with this fear and pain

But it's gone tonight
Nothing in the way
Go forward, forward
Nothing not to say
It's our world, our world
Trouble's gone tonight
Right under the bridge like water, water
Promising to love you harder, harder, harder

It's like a cripple in my heart
Cripple in part
I don't understand
We get so dark
Here we go again
Another argument
I don't wanna go back to the start
No, no, no
I don't wanna go back
No, no, no

It's gone tonight
Nothing in the way
Go forward, forward
Nothing not to say
It's our world, our world
Trouble's gone tonight
Right under the bridge like water, water
Promising to love you harder, harder, harder

Gone tonight
Oh, oh
Promising to love you harder, harder, harder
Gone tonight
Oh, oh
Oh, oh

The Bells

(Deluxe Edition Bonus Track)

Everyday I get a little bit closer
To the resolution that I am not yet bulletproof
Oh, the battle within raid the zone and own
The neighborhood seemed so small
The church on the corner
Has steps good for waiting
I should go in
But I'm tired of praying
And anyway

I can't stop the bells
Ringing since you've been gone
I thought I was moving on
But I think of nothing else
I can't break the spell
I still hear you every place
Can't forget what I saw in your face
I know every inch so well

I can't stop the bells
Can't stop the bells
Can't stop the bells
I can't stop the bells
Can't stop the bells

And it doesn't even matter what's going on
The sound in my head is constant
And I can't turn it off
Oh, and patience is hard
When you just don't know
Where all the waiting is taking you
The church on the corner
Torn down in December
That kiss in the doorway
I still won't surrender
And anyway

I can't stop the bells
Ringing since you've been gone
I thought I was moving on
But I think of nothing else
I can't break the spell
I still hear you every place
You don't know what you left in your wake
I guess I'm not so well

If you could feel what I feel for the moment
Just see what I see
And you know that I won't find peace
Until you'll come back to me

Oh, I thought I was moving on
But I think of nothing else
I can't stop the bells
I still hear you every place
Can't forget what I saw in your face
I know every inch so well

I can't stop the bells
Can't stop the bells
Can't stop the bells
I can't stop the bells
Can't stop the bells
