It's hard to say your last goodbye
The winters grow colder the fields are all covered with snow and ice
If I said I won't miss you we all know that it would be lies, lies, lies

So we hold our breath as we cay goodbye
Close our eyes as we say goodnight
Whisper your name in a sweet lullaby
As we make our way through the skies

La's

It's hard to see what's left behind
Nieces and nephews remembering all of your stories and rhymes
If I said I won't miss you we all know that you left before your time

So we hold our breath as we cay goodbye
Close our eyes as we say goodnight
Whisper your name in a sweet lullaby
As we make our way through the skies

La's

I can see that you're running out on me
Pick up the pace, it's only a broken heart
I can see that falling fast asleep
Pick up the pace, it's only a broken heart
Winter's cold, winter is all we need
Pick up the pace, it's only a broken heart
I can see that you're falling to your knees
Pick up the pace, it's only a broken heart

La's

I can see that you're running out on me
Pick up the pace, it's only a broken heart
I can see that falling fast asleep
Pick up the pace, it's only a broken heart
Winter's cold, winter is all we need
Pick up the pace, it's only a broken heart
I can see that you're falling to your knees
Pick up the pace, it's only a broken heart

THE ROAD
(Written by Paul Otten)

I'VE BEEN TO THE FURTHEST REACH
I'VE BEEN WHERE THE SUN DON'T SLEEP
I'VE BEEN WHERE THE POSTCARDS COME FROM

I'VE BEEN WHERE THE MAP RUNS OUT
I'VE SEEN EVERY MAIN STREET TOWN
AND NOTHING'S EVER COMPARED TO THE ROAD

CHORUS:
ROAD
WHOA OH OH OH
WHOA OH OH OH
I'M AT HOME ON THE ROAD
ROAD
WHOA OH OH OH
WHOA OH OH OH
IT KEEPS CALLING ME
SO I'M BACK ON THE ROAD

I'VE BEEN ON THE WATER AND ROADS
EVERY MOUNTAIN,
EVERY VALLEY, EVERY COAST
IT ALWAYS GETS A GOOD GRIP ON MY HEART

THERE'S ALWAYS THAT COMFORTING GLOW
LIKE ARMS WRAPPED AROUND YOUR SOUL
ME AND MY ROAD SHALL NEVER PART

CHORUS:
ROAD
WHOA OH OH OH
WHOA OH OH OH
I'M AT HOME ON THE ROAD
ROAD
WHOA OH OH OH
WHOA OH OH OH
IT KEEPS CALLING ME
SO I'M HEADING BACK
RIGHT BACK ON THE ROAD

ROAD
WHOA OH OH OH
WHOA OH OH OH
I'M AT HOME ON THE ROAD
ROAD
WHOA OH OH OH
WHOA OH OH OH
IT KEEPS CALLING ME
SO I'M HEADING BACK
I'M HEADING BACK
I'M HEADING BACK
RIGHT BACK ON THE ROAD

Inside the Gray

(V1)
All of us are constantly judged by those in our life.
They all either drape us in darkness, or paint us in white.
Don’t you wish they would let us be covered in colors and gray.
And if they don’t like the way that we are, we wont let them stay.

(PreChorus)
Cause life’s just not that long,We’ll be ourselves and know that they’re wrong
We’re inside the gray. Oh we’re inside the gray.

(Chorus)
Whoa, Oh, Oh…. Inside the gray.
Whoa, Oh, Oh…. Living inside the gray.

(V2)
Sometimes it feels like our lives just can’t take any more.
It won’t make it better if ever you settle the score.
Can’t we see that the race that we’re in is a race we all run.
If they think they can win on their own, then they’re already done.

(PreChorus)
Cause life’s just not that long,We’ll be ourselves and know that they’re wrong
We’re inside the gray. Oh we’re inside the gray.
r
(Chorus)
Whoa, Oh, Oh…. Inside the gray.
Whoa, Oh, Oh…. Living inside the gray.

When its us verses them its always a losing design
We’re not a bunch of diamonds losing grade along with shine
If everyone we met looked like us, we’d be going insane.
Black and white are boring so we should all live in the gray.

(PreChorus)
Cause life’s just not that long, be ourselves and we’ll be strong
We’re inside the gray….Oh we’re inside the gray.

(Chorus)
Whoa, Oh, Oh…. Inside the gray.
Whoa, Oh, Oh…. Living inside the gray.

I've seen endless wonders that I barely could believe
I've seen all the stars in heaven staring back at me
I've seen a billion minds collide then stream into my eyes
as time rolls on I won't let life leave me behind

oh whoa oh
Let's dream out loud
cuz all we know
has been turned upside down
everything is possible now

I've seen things my father said he never thought I'd see
I wonder what my kids will find to roll their eyes at me
I can see the future coming and man it's such a sight
but time will waste me if I don't stop wasting time...

oh whoa oh
Let's dream out loud
cuz all we know
has been turned upside down
everything is possible now

I've seen all the prophets fall from pillars made of sand
I've seen truth dragged through the mud then never heard again
I've seen precious water flowing stolen by the blind
You've got yours now you want all that's left of mine

oh whoa oh
Let's dream out loud
cuz all we know
has been turned upside down
everything is possible no

Stare at the sun
With my head stuck in the sand you will pick me up again

Bullet proof from the loudest sound buried words deep in the ground
ooooooh ahhhhhhh

My fingers bleed but I never stop
Wasting time while the world is lost
People falling to their knees

And all their homes are crumbling
ooooooh ahhhhhhh

Don’t stare stare at the sun

Or your heart will not back
Don’t lose yourself with the sky
Or your eyes will not look back don’t lose. ahhhhhh.....

Run with the wolves and save yourself
Sheepskin draped like a ringing bell
We all want what we cannot hold

And the money tells us that we’re gold ooooooh ahhhhhhh

Don’t stare, stare at the sun 
or your heart will not back
Don’t lose yourself with the sky
Or your eyes will not look back don’t lose. ahhhhhh...

We only have one life to live
So give it all you've got to give
Don't let anything or anyone stand in your way
Come out from your safe place
Don't choose to just stand by
The only thing to fear is that you never even tried

There's something to be said about
the one who chases dreams
Trying is the only way
you ever will succeed
So find your inspiration,
wherever it may lie
Shout out from the rooftops
It's my time to fly!

And do it for the love (hey)
Do it for the joy
Do it to get the girl (hey)
Do it for your boys
Do it for the rush (hey)
Do it for the team
Do it for yourself (hey)
Claim your destiny

Trial and tribulation
May rear their ugly heads
But strength and perseverance
Will not leave you mislead
Follow your true instinct
The one that speaks inside
Then buckle up and hold on
For it's a joyous ride

And when you start to see rewards
as you will surely see
Don't forget to self reflect
and keep humility
For it can all be gone
Quicker than it came
So, just remember who you are
and victory will reign

And do it for the love (hey)
Do it for the joy
Do it to for your girls (hey)
Do it for your boys
Do it for the rush (hey)
Do it for the team
Do it for yourself (hey)
Claim your destiny

Preserve the passion
That filled your soul with fire
And as the years roll by
Ambition won't be mired
Taking you higher and higher

So, do it for the love (hey)
Do it for the joy
Do it for your girls (hey)
Do it for your boys
Do it for the rush (hey)
Do it for the team
Do it for yourself (hey)
Claim your destiny

Had a dream I was all alone, free to run but nowhere to go
so I laid in an open field, closed my eyes and begin to dream again
what I saw was a mixture of who I was and what I've become
you were there as a flash of light, long since gone but your glow's still in my sight

there's no room for apologies
and no proof of what will be
just be sure when it's done

Had a dream about a friend of mine, he said death is calm and he's doing fine
and that he misses the little things, as we smoked on the balcony
I took some comfort in make believe, I said love like it meant something
don't hold your breath once you make a plan, there's no guarantee you'll let it out again

leave no room for make believe
and no room for in-betweens
just be sure when it's done
you've got one chance at everything
and one move in a chance meeting
when it's done, it's done

each sunset departs leaving us alone with our thoughts
we have both said our parts leaving us alone with our thoughts

Had some dreams that I will not share, they're the last of what's barely there
there's nothing new beneath the sun, you're not the first or the last one

leave no room for make believe
and no room for in-betweens
just be sure when it's done
you've got one chance at everything
and one move in a chance meeting
when it's done, it's done

I'm mechanical, gears and sinew, rods and ventricles, and scar tissue.
I'm mechanical, bone rib cages, padded skeletal structural braces.
If I'm mechanical why does it feel like this, when my heart is dead, but my heartbeat persists?
If I'm mechanical, made of heartless steel, why am I haunted by you, why am I haunted by you?

All of my demons hide, until I try to fly. I've played a traitor's part, in the battle for my heart.
I've seen the Angels win the pennant, I know what love can do when it's in it, I've watched an iron curtain fall.
I don't know exactly how, but love never backs down.
Love never backs down. Love never backs down.

I am physical, trapped in space and time, always just one mile from the soft skyline.
I am physical here on 6th and Main, on my warm skin I can feel the rain.
You say I'm physical, but this trajectory is taking me places that I can't see.
If I am physical, made of flesh and bone, why am I haunted by you, why am I haunted by you?

All of my demons hide, until I try to fly. I've played a traitor's part, in the battle for my heart.
I've seen the Angels win the pennant, I know what love can do when it's in it, I've watched an iron curtain fall.
I don't know exactly how, but love never backs down.
Love never backs down. Love never backs down.

Why am I haunted by you? Why am I haunted by you?

All of my demons hide, until I try to fly. I've played a traitor's part, in the battle for my heart.
I've seen the Angels win the pennant, I know what love can do when it's in it, I've watched an iron curtain fall.
I don't know exactly how, but love never backs down.
Love never backs down. Love never backs down.

All of my demons hide, until I try to fly. I've played a traitor's part, in the battle for my heart.

"Welcome back it’s so good to have you home
Welcome back you been gone so long
Shakin up the world
Makin some noise
Singin your song
Welcome back to where you belong
You been gone but you’ve never been alone
Cuz I was there with you
Showin you the road that leads back home

OH OH OH OH-OH OH- OH OH OH OH

I walked with you all those lonely miles
I shared the tears and I shared the smiles
It’s funny how it is
This feelin I get
Words can’t explain
So welcome back to where you belong
And I thank God that you’re safe and sound
And wherever you may roam
You can always know you’re not alone

OH OH OH OH-OH OH- OH OH OH OH

Welcome back to where you belong
Right where you started, right where you come from
And now I’m just so glad
That you’re finally back home, welcome home

My hips got lost in the waves of the stereo.
The beat came through and my heart won't let it go
We're not ready to stop
Oh I'm not ready to stop
Let the dancefloor shake til the neons cold
my hips got lost in the waves of the stereo

I feel my pulse
Starting to get away
Our rhythm moves
Like it got something to say
Your body leads
And all I do is obey
I feel the beat
And I am not afraid
Our rhythm moves
Like it's got something to say
We feel the bass
And all we do is obey

My hips got lost in the waves of the stereo.
The beat came through and my heart won't let it go
We're not ready to stop
Oh I'm not ready to stop
Let the dancefloor shake til the neons cold
my hips got lost in the waves of the stereo

Im not afraid of what's
Controlling me
Oh come away
And steal the night with me
I know a place
Where only stars will see
I'm not afraid of what
this might be
So come away
Where the movements free
I know a place
Where only stars will see

My hips got lost in the waves of the stereo.
The beat came through and my heart won't let it go
We're not ready to stop
Oh I'm not ready to stop
Let the dancefloor shake til the neons cold
my hips got lost in the waves of the stereo

Stereo Stereo Stereo oh oh oh (x4)

My hips got lost in the waves of the stereo.
The beat came through and my heart won't let it go
We're not ready to stop
Oh I'm not ready to stop
Let the dancefloor shake til the neons cold
my hips got lost in the waves of the stereo
