Rain, sleepless rain is comin' down again
It's the same, same, same just like you know when...
Yes I do.
Oh.. it's floodin' in the holy land
Oh.. I'm drownin' like a workin' man...
Oh.. but there is nowhere else that I would rather be, yeah...
One more time..
If you were mine, if you were mine, if you were mine...
Over me, rain or shine. I'd be satisfied
Blame, burnin' blame is underneath my skin
Such a shame, shame, shame, shame, wish I knew it then
Yes I do, yes I do
Oh.. sing another lullaby
Oh.. I think we need an alibi
Oh.. but there is nowhere else that I would rather be
One more time
If you were mine, if you were mine, if you were mine....
Over me, rain or shine. I'd be satisfied yeah
Rain, tired rain slowin' down again..
But the pain doesn't feel the same like I remember then..
Yes I do, yes I do
Oh.. it's floodin' in the holy land
Oh.. I'm Drownin' like a workin' man
Oh.. but there is nowhere else that I would rather be, yeah.....
One more time..
If your were mine, if you were mine, if you were mine..
Over me, rain or shine

You'd be over me, over me
You'd be over me, one more time....
Congratulations SongStandin' on the ceiling, it's alright
Suspended by the dreams you seem to lose
You've been floatin' for a while, a while, can't hold on
Standin' on the ceiling, it's alright, it's alright
Somebody is tryin' to get the best of me
Congratulations song
So now your'te flying like you wanna be
Right where you belong
Starin' at the wall like it's window,don't know

Starin' at the wall, you don't know, don't know...
Somebody is tryin' to get the best of me
2. Congratulations Song
So now you're flying like you wanna be
Right where you belong

You can't slow down...
Runnin' from the sun again, it's all right, all right Somebody is
tryin' to get the best of me
Congratulations song
So now you're flying like you wanna be.....
3. Stare Too Long
Oh lord I must be crazy, Settled down and I find nothing new..
Older days, they used to matter but I don't care
Cause I got nothin' to lose
And if I stare too long, I might not see you right
Over time, the heart goes out of sight
And if I stare too long, I might not see you right
Close the door. Where the heart is out of sight
Many a dreams across the river
But it's too strong for a boy like me, yeah....
Now you're gone but I still remember
Better days as they wash into the sea
And if I stare too long, I might not see you right
Over time, the heart goes out of sight
And if I stare too long, I might not see you right
Close the door. Where the heart is out of sight
I've got the time but I got no reason
I'm broken down, waiting patiently
Now the sun don't shine for me and that's a different season
but she comes around one more time for me...
And if I stare too long, I think I might go blind
Over time the heart goes out of sight
And if I live too long, I might not treat you right
Close the door....Now you're shining way too bright...
Shine on......
4. Diablo Blvd.
Some wonder, some filter, some trip to pass the time
Just ask him and he'll tell you nothing better then a desparate mind
I'm in love with a widow soon to be,
I don't think I can fight it
Anthems broke and I'm spinning 'round again,
Stayin' dizzy 'cause I like it
You can have it if you want it,
just remember it's a lonely ride
Ain't that hard to fight
Kickin' hard time, they split you to the bone. Kickin' hard time, risin'
Home is your destination, do you think you can find it
Feelin' green once again, downtown you go, the arrows rising
You can have it if you want it,
just remember it's a lonely ride
Ain't that hard to fight
Kickin' hard time, they split you to the bone. Kickin' hard time, risin'
Some wonder, some filter, some trip to pass the time
Just asked him and he will tell you there is nothing better then a deperate mind
Diablo, talk to me, tell me what's on your mind
That game boy, to the rivals, we don't need no war inside
Kickin' hard time, kickin' hard time, risin'
Once so magnetic but you do it so poetic
And you lay it on the line and singin' kickin' hard time, it ain't that
hard to find
Kickin' hard time, they split you to the bone. Kickin' hard time, risin'
5. Doublewide
New, the sky is clear, you reappear
And I lost my way a million to one
and you come around when the day is done
And I wonder which one knows ?
And I wonder which one goes ?
I'm doublewide.. I'm doublewide
And I don't have a reason, something's gone wrong
And I still don't remember, I been here too long
Gonna lose my way behind the sun
Then I'll come around when the day is done
And I wonder which one knows ?
And I wonder which one goes ?
I'm doublewide.. I'm doublewide
Over time, on judgement day, overdrawn passion play
If I die before I wake, I think I got an even break
I'm doublewide....
6. Zippo
Amplified on fire, strapped to take you higher
Queens appear, strapped you made it clear
Is everybody with me, is everybody cool
Is anybody lazy, am I the only fool ?
Hell yeah maybe you a roc n rolla
Hey, hey maybe I should of been coldah
Ditch that wish and sell your soul
Is everybody with me is everybody cool
Is anybody lazy am I the only fool ?
That's what makes it so damn hard to find her
I was down beat crazy, lumps to make it hazy
Ride on fear, wings they disappear
Is everybody with me, is everybody cool
Is anybody lazy, am I the only fool ?
Hell yeah maybe you a roc n rolla
Hey hey maybe I should of been coldah
Ditch that wish and sell your soul
I was down town freaky, strapped you made it tricky
Heads go under, sho ruff gonna roll you over
Is everybody with me is everybody cool
Is anybody lazy am I the only fool ?
Hell yeah maybe you a roc n rolla
Hey, hey maybe I should of been coldah
Ditch that wish and sell your soul
Ditch that wish and sell your soul
Life that touch and make your body rockah
Make yo body rockah...Make yo body rockah...
7. Who's Got the Fire
Oh say man, are you still alive, cause I heard your ship was sinking
Back in town, but there's nothin' around, man, I know the feeling'
I'm talkin' bout it
Who's got the fi-yah?
Who's got the fi-yah?
Who's got the fi-yah?
Leave it for the love, and try to call me a liar.
Hey you. Mr. Highball, too young to walk, to old to crawl
Quittin' time, but is your soul better, never mind, never mind
Quit talkin' bout it
Who's got the fi-yah?
Who's got the fi-yah?
Who's got the fi-yah?
Leave it for the love, put me out
To' up, from the Flo' up, I say Stop...wait a minute now Ho' up
Heat come around to hunt you down
I know you know the feelin'
I'm talkin' bout it
Who's got the fi-yah?
Who's got the fi-yah?
Who's got the fi-yah?
Leave it for the love, put me out
8. Sleeping Martyr
There's a boy they call the sleepin' man, he's been asleep for days
There's a girl lyin' next to him, following his ways
Dreaming of a foreign place, where the people always pray
Nowhere else to run to...now
So this is where they stay
That's all she wanted to hear
That's all she wanted to hear
Sleep another year....
I will in time forget the order, wake up the sleepin' martyr
Somethin' don't seem right....In you
A broken will to testify, a thorn on either side
Empty bottles lyin' next to him, keeps him satisfied
Voices on that dead end street, make you feel so fine
Wake up son it's time to go, you're runnin' out of time...
And that's all he wanted to hear
That's all he wanted to hear
Sleep another year...
I will in time forget the order, wake up the sleepin' martyr
Somethin' don't seem right..In you
He dreamed until his heart was still or so the story goes..
Can't remember how he got that way cause he's forgot more than he knows...
Drift into a foreign place, seems like yesterday..
Nowhere else to run to...now, alone he starts to pray
And that's all she wanted to hear
That's all she wanted to hear
Sleep another year...
I will in time forget the order, wake up the sleepin' martyr
Hold tight, hold tight, hold tight
Cause it's gonna' be a long night, anytime, everytime....
Anytime In you...
9. Take What You Want
Just as long as we are here, standing tall for one more year
Sing out loud and keep away the cold
When you're blind and you can't see
Realize it's them, not me
I might be hard to find, you know it happens everytime
When I'm tired I crawl, I can't stand to see you fall
And the years they don't treat you like they used to
When you're wide and I'm awake
I got time enough for days Take a-want you want
It just might set you free, not me ...
Oh no way, I've been up for a thousand days
But you can cut me down when I'm old and gray
And if you catch me on the move, you can come along
Or you can disapprove
I might be hard to find, you know it happens every time
When I'm tired, I crawl, I can't stand to see you fall
And the years they don't treat you like they used to
When you're wide and I'm awake
I got time enough for days take a-want you want
It just might set you free and not me...
Does it feel the same
When I'm tired I crawl like the savior in us all
But I don't mind it's somethin' that I'm used to
And when it's time to go, I just thought I'd let you know
Farewell this time, you're always on my mind
When I'm tired I crawl, it's a shame to see you fall
And the years they don't treat you like they used to
But when you're wide and I'm awake
Baby, I got enough damn time for a million days
Take a-want you want and it just might set you free....
When you're up you roam, it's a shame to see you go
And the years they don't treat you like they used to
Just as every light you see might be the one that sets you free
Keep on rising like the ones you used to know, let's go.......
10. 13 Angels
Sleep, sleep, sleep, oh sleep for me
And rest your soul, just like the roses at your feet
Dream, dream, dream, dream awhile for me
And travel far away 'till the distance is complete
There's 13 Angels standing on display
I think they're gonna take you away
One life time gone and now your soul is dead
The angels just shake their heads
Oh faith, faith, faith, have faith for me
I lost it long ago somewhere I shouldn't be
Heart heart heart, save your heart for me
It's the only place I've been with everything I need
There's 13 Angels standing on display
I think they're gonna throw me away
One life time gone and now my soul is dead
The angels just shake their heads
Oh, Maybe I'm a life time soldier never dying, never gettin' older
Maybe I'm a life time soldier lost along the way....
High, high, high, stay high for me
And let me see the things I never thought I'd be
Wait, wait, wait, please wait for me
I've travelled far and wide without a destiny
There's 13 Angels standing on display
I think they're gonna take you away
One life time gone and now my soul is dead
The angels just shake their heads
Oh, Maybe I'm a life time soldier never dying, never gettin' older
Maybe I'm a life time soldier lost along the way....
11. Gittin' It On
Sixty feet out of reach, hammer down every time
And we was gittin' it on, gittin' it on
Don't fuck with the stroker, it's 60 over
And I know that we was gittin' it on, gittin' it on
Power down in the hole,
and you was smokin' on the shoulder
Sucked you up like a leech
and now you're limpin' like a Duster
While we was gittin' it on, gittin' it on
LIke a D/Class gasser, 4-speed suicide
We was gittin' it on, gittin' it on
Dominatin' the modified, force-fed power grind
And we was gittin' it on, gittin' it on
Power down in the hole
and you was smokin' on the shoulder
Sucked you up like a leaech
and now yo're limpin' like a Duster
While we was gittin' it on, gittin' it on..
Gittin' it on, Gittin' it on
Got the heavies, Got the heavies
