[Verse 1]
Shadows creeping
Taking space
(Ooh-yeah!) They try to hide the human race
Whispers loud
They echo through
But good hearts shine
They break the blue

[Prechorus]
Hold your ground
Don’t fade away
(Ooh-yeah!) The night can't steal the day

[Chorus]
Keep on shining
Shining bright
Light the darkness
Fight the fight
Good will rise
No end in sight
Keep on shining
Through the night
Through the night
(oh-oh!) through the night

[Verse 2]
Storms are raging
Skies are black
We move ahead
No turning back
(Ooh!) Hearts are fire
Burning strong
Together we can right the wrong

[Prechorus]
Stand as one
Let love ignite
(Ooh-yeah!) We’ll outshine the endless night

[Chorus]
Keep on shining
Shining bright
Light the darkness
Fight the fight
Good will rise
No end in sight
Keep on shining
Through the night
Through the night
(oh-oh!) through the night

Keep On Shining

[Verse 1]
Started out with stars in my eyes
(oo-yeah!)
Chasin' the glitter
The shine
The prize
"Make it big
" they said
"you'll see!"
But the higher I climbed
The less of me

[Chorus]
Fool's gold
Fool's gold
What a price to pay
(Oh yeah!) Glitter fades
But the emptiness stays
No friends
No love
Just a hollow throne
Fool's gold
Fool's gold
Now I'm all alone

[Verse 2]
Built my castle high
Brick by brick
(whoa!)
Parties and applause
Thought I had the trick
But the echo's loud when the room’s just you
Lost the map to life
Didn’t have a clue

[Prechorus]
(Oh no!) I gave my soul to the shine
But never saw the warning sign

[Chorus]
Fool's gold
Fool's gold
What a price to pay
(Yeah!) Glitter fades
But the emptiness stays
No friends
No love
Just a hollow throne
Fool's gold
Fool's gold
Now I'm all alone

[Bridge]
Mirror
Mirror
What do you see?
A man who traded love for currency. (woo!)
Chasin' dreams that were never real
Now I’m left with wounds that time won’t heal

Fool's Gold

[Verse]
They threw me out with dust on my feet
No roof no bread no place to meet
The streets whispered secrets I couldn't keep
But dreams
Oh dreams
They don’t retreat

[Prechorus]
Now the drums roll loud
Can you hear the sound
I’m back in town
No chains
No bounds

[Chorus]
I was poor
Now I’m golden
Hearts and coins
Both unbroken
I forgive
I rise
I stay
Rich in love
In every way

[Verse 2]
The plaza’s brighter than it used to be
Faces stare
Their guilt like the sea
But I smile
Oh I smile
Let it be
Their hate drowned
My heart set free

[Prechorus]
The trumpets sing
Can you feel the sway
I’ve come to dance
Not to repay

[Chorus]
I was poor
Now I’m golden
Hearts and coins
Both unbroken
I forgive
I rise
I stay
Rich in love
In every way

Golden Return

[Verse]
The road is long
The night is cold
The stars above feel distant
Old
But every step
I hear it say
Keep on moving
Find your way

[Chorus]
Keep on climbing
Don't look down
Wear your courage like a crown
Hope's the fire
Let it burn
Faith will lead you
Take your turn

[Verse 2]
The winds will howl
The storms will fight
They'll try to steal your guiding light
But even when the skies turn gray
The sun's just waiting
One more day

[Prechorus]
Hold the line
Don't let it go
Feel the spark begin to grow

[Chorus]
Keep on climbing
Don't look down
Wear your courage like a crown
Hope's the fire
Let it burn
Faith will lead you
Take your turn

[Bridge]
When the world whispers
"You can't stay"
Shout back loud
"I'll find my way"
Every stumble
Every fall
They're just echoes of the call

Keep on Climbing

[Verse 1]
She walked alone through the schoolyard haze
Silent steps
A maze of cruel displays
Eyes like daggers
Words like knives
She learned to fold
To shield her life

[Prechorus]
But the glass never lies
Oh no it never lies
What they saw was a shell
But she had fire inside

[Chorus]
Mirror eyes
They only see themselves
Never look beyond
Never break their spells
They laughed
They lied
They pushed her down
But now she’s a queen wearing their crown

[Verse 2]
She grew up fast in a world so cold
The same old stares
The same blindfolds
They couldn’t see the phoenix rise
From ashes burned beneath their lies

[Prechorus]
But the glass never lies
Oh no it never lies
They missed the glow
The storm she hides

[Chorus]
Mirror eyes
They only see themselves
Never look beyond
Never break their spells
They laughed
They lied
They pushed her down
But now she’s a queen wearing their crown

Mirror Eyes

[Verse]
She walks like a whisper in the wind
Doesn't see the fire I'm burning within
Every glance she throws just cuts me deep
A love so loud but she stays asleep

[Prechorus]
I know her favorite song her favorite line
I’d give her the stars if they'd make her mine

[Chorus]
But she don’t see me no she don’t care
I’m just a shadow breathing her air
Loyal heart but she won’t look my way
She’s my sunrise she’s my rainy day

[Verse 2]
She doesn’t know how I stay awake
Dreaming of a smile she’d never fake
I’d trust her with every scar I hide
But she’s a fortress locked from the inside

[Prechorus]
She don’t hear the words I never say
She don’t know I’d love her anyway

[Chorus]
But she don’t see me no she don’t care
I’m just a shadow breathing her air
Loyal heart but she won’t look my way
She’s my sunrise she’s my rainy day

Unseen Flame

[Verse 1]
Wind howls sharp through the hollow night
Shadows creep where the light won't fight
The ground shakes but I hold tight
Still breathing still alive

Graves whisper names I knew too well
Whiskey bottles
A private hell
Every crack I fell and fell
But I rose
I rise
I will

[Prechorus]
Storms rage but I don't break
Fires burn but I don’t flake

[Chorus]
I stand tall when the world falls down
I wear the chaos like a crown
Through the wreckage through the pain
I’m the thunder in the rain
I stand tall
I stand tall

[Verse 2]
Loneliness
It bites like steel
Cuts so deep
It almost feels
Like I'm drowning
No one reels
Me back but I climb still

Demons knocking on my door
Screaming louder than before
But I’m stronger
I want more
They can’t own me anymore

Stand Tall

[Verse 1]
(Oo-yeah!) He’s the king of the scene
Slicker than grease
With a velvet tongue
He’s the heartthrob beast
“Hey baby
Hey sugar
What’s your delight?”
He’ll spin you ‘round once
Leave you dizzy by night (oh, watch out now!)

[Chorus]
He’s the Sweet Talk Shuffle
The master of the game
Plays ‘em all like a record
Never two the same
But oh-oh
Here she comes
With a twist in her stride
Sweet Talk Shuffle
Boy
You better hide!

[Verse 2]
(Shoo-wop!) She’s got a sparkle
A fire in her eye
A honey-coated voice
Got him tongue-tied (whoa now!)
She says
“Hey there
Player
Think you’re so fly?
Let’s see you keep up
Come and give it a try!”

[Prechorus]
He stammers
He stumbles
He’s caught in her groove
Her words cut sharp
She’s got all the moves (all the moves!)

[Chorus]
He’s the Sweet Talk Shuffle
But now he’s on the ropes
She’s got him backpedalin’
No more slick hopes
Oh-oh
Tables turned
She’s the queen of the show
Sweet Talk Shuffle
Now you reap what you sow!

[Bridge]
(Ohhh, oo-yeah!)
She said
“Baby
You’re a player
But I wrote the book (I wrote the book!)
Your tricks are tired
I can see every look (uh-huh!)
I flipped the board
Now you’re checkmated
Fool
Who’s the sweet talker now? Guess I’m the jewel!”

Sweet Talk Shuffle

[Verse]
Three rings on my hand
Each one a bad bet
Took a vow
Broke it
Left with regret
He called me his queen
I became his pawn
Now I'm just a shadow where a woman stood strong

[Prechorus]
I gave my heart
They took the rest
Tried to love
But I failed the test

[Chorus]
Three rings too many
And none fit me right
I wore them in daylight
I cried through the night
I gave my all
They gave me pain
Now I watch my life slip down the drain

[Verse 2]
Bruises fade but the scars remain
Whiskey kissed me
Dulled the pain
Mirror cracked
Just like my mind
The clock keeps ticking
But I’ve lost the time

[Prechorus]
I played the game
I paid the price
Life dealt me cards
But they weren’t nice

[Chorus]
Three rings too many
And none fit me right
I wore them in daylight
I cried through the night
I gave my all
They gave me pain
Now I watch my life slip down the drain

Three Rings Too Many

The King of the Sofa
