WHEN IT ALL BURNS DOWN Lyrics:

Staring at the ceiling but in my mind I’m leaving
Counting up the seasons ’til I’m gone 
To Arizona or somewhere warmer
To set my feet out in the sun
Before it all burns down

Everyone may have their vision of sin and holy living
Oh, but I found religion in my lover’s arms
I worked to fill their coffers and I did so prim and proper
Yet they curse my name as Devil’s charm
So let it all burn down. Let it all burn down

They build you up to tear you down
Bury all the pieces underground
But I know the secret, it’s in the sound
When it all burns down. When it all burns down

Staring at the ceiling, but in my mind I’m leaving
Counting up the seasons ’til I’m gone

When It All Burns Down

We've Been Here Before (A Dream Don't Come Easy)

Someone I'm Not

A prince living on a hill tries to escape the place he loves so much.

Prince on the hill

So many roads to follow 
So many rivers to seek 
So many mountains and bays
All them stars on display 
Won’t you come run away with me 

So many trails to step upon 
So many peaks to reach 
So many colours and coves 
Tiny islands to roam 
Wont you come run away with me 

Cause I, I’ve been thinking 
This town ain’t what it used to be 
And I, I’ve been dreaming 
Of campfires under alpine trees 
And sunsets over lake Louise 
Wont you come run away with me   

To much time stuck in the city
To many days lost to a screen 
Subways and trains
tall buildings and cranes 
Its, gonna drive a man insane 

Well I need a week out in the woodland 
With a lantern and kerosene 
Pine cones and sparks 
September dark 
Wont you come run away with me 

Cause I, I’ve been thinking 
This town ain’t what it used to be 
And I, I’ve been dreaming 
Of campfires under alpine trees 
And sunsets over lake Louise   

Cause I, I’ve been thinking 
This town ain’t where we both should be 
And I, I’ve been wandering 
If you’ll wander round this world with me 

Cause I, I’ve been thinking 
This town ain’t what it used to be 
And I, I’ve been dreaming 
Of campfires under alpine trees 
And sunsets over lake Louise 
Of you wandering this world with me

Lyrics 

[Verse]
Dark nights the lights so bright
Whispers call me in the night
Promises of joy so near
Masking all the pain and fear

[Verse 2]
Chasing dreams I couldn't keep
Lost myself in pleasures deep
Family's cries just faded sound
Shadows pull me further down

[Chorus]
Sweet ecstasy I held so tight
Made me feel so high so bright
Lost my way couldn't see the fall
Addiction's grip it took it all

[Verse 3]
Once a man with morals true
Now I'm someone I never knew
Turned my back on love and kin
Pleasure's grasp it pulled me in

[Bridge]
Embarrassment I faced the shame
Love so close to slipping away
Near-death brush brought me back
Fighting hard against the knack

[Chorus]
Sweet ecstasy I held so tight
Made me feel so high so bright
Lost my way couldn't see the fall
Addiction's grip it took it all

Lyrics
Baby, let's take a ride tonight

There's fire in the skies

I've got a gassed-up Toyota

You've got secrets in those eyes


We'll drive until the sunlight fades

And the stars say hello

I'll point out names of constellations

That I don't really know


Oh, we're not getting any younger

Oh, so just hold me tonight

1,2,3, take a photograph with me

We ain't got much time

And I don't wanna lose the light

I don't wanna lose the light


I don't need directions babe

Don't matter where we go

Just give me an old and lonely highway

A good song on the radio


They say you don't know what you got

Until it goes away

So let's just memorize this moment

I don't wanna let it fade


Oh, we're not getting any younger

Oh, so just hold me tonight

1,2,3, take a photograph with me

We ain't got much time

And I don't wanna lose the light

I don't wanna lose the light

I don't wanna lose the light


Cause we're not getting any younger

So honey just hold me tonight

1,2,3, take a photograph with me

We ain't got much time

And I don't wanna lose the light

I don't wanna lose the light

I don't wanna lose the light

I don't wanna lose the light

Baby, let's take a ride tonight

There's fire in the skies

I've got a gassed-up Toyota

You've got secrets in those eyes
