Into My Own 02:14
I’ve been turning my heart into stone, Spinning that line into gold, I’ve been working my fingers to the bone, Just breaking down all of the molds, You know... I’ve been coming into my own. I’ve been stretching my legs on the road, Running just to see where it goes, I might never find my way back home, But I can’t stop, I just thought you should know, I’ve been coming into my own. I’ve been Thinking, I’ve been Changing, I’ve been Growing, I’ve been Dreaming. I’ve been coming into my own. I’ve been Coming, I’ve been Thinking, I’ve been Changing, I’ve been Dreaming, I’ve been Growing!

Hard Times 02:58
Hard times, Don;t they always seem to, Draw the line, Between the lies and the truth, Had your say, Made your point, I’ve had my fill, Now walk away. Love me, Leave me, Don’t you ever try to change me, Kiss me, Kill me, Don’t you try to complicate me, Thrill me, Chill me, Baby just don’t leave me empty. Hard times, Don’t they always seem to, Make you climb, Up through a mountain of hoops. Made you crawl, Over a wall, Picked you up, Just to make you fall.

Dead Steady 03:57
You see that man, The way he stands, He’s looking dead steady ready for anything, And when he slicks back his hair, And he starts to speak, He’s looking dead steady for anything. He throws the dice, He chucks them twice, Another winner chicken dinner, Well it must be nice, To be so smooth, To be so cool, To be so Goddamn sure of your next few moves. I know so many men, Who lived for themselves, Ain’t never helped, Nobody else, Who will blame them, For the way they stand, With idol hands, In their castles of sand. I know so many men, Who just look away, Got nothing to say, When it’s time to explain, I can blame them, For the times the ran, Acting like children, Instead of grown men.

I had to live for a while, To find something to say, I had to fake it with a smile, Just to get through my days, I was living on promises, That you never had made, And when I tried to get away from it, I knew I’d never be the same. For all my days. We all stumble and fall, There’s a price to be paid, To get over the wall, Stuck inside our own brain, You were talking all your politics, But you had nothing to say, And when I tried to get away from it, I knew I’d never be the same. For all of my days. Hold on my love, Hold on my love help is coming, Hold on my love, Hold on I swear help is coming, Oh no, my love, I think we’re alone on this island, How long can this go on, Tell me how long... I was waiting for lightning, I was praying for rain, I was hoping for something, To take all of my pain, And you were waiting for common sense, To win over the day, But when a little bit of madness hit, I knew we’d never be the same, For all of my days.

Wicked 03:05
Johnny’s not a rebel, He’s a sensitive guy, He’d probably have a girl, But he’s much too shy, But he’s got a good job, And he shows up on time, He does what they want, And he never asks why. And it grows, It grows, The wickedness grows, It’s takes you by the hand, And shakes you by the throat, It grows, It grows, The wickedness grows, And nobody knows, When it’s gonna start, Or where it’s gonna go. Johnny’s had enough, Of the same old thing, It’s like he’s stuck inside a movie, That he’s already seen, So Johnny’s got a plan, And it’s a hell of a sight, He might be going down in flames, But he’s loving the ride. Now Johnny’s had enough, And it ain’t no joke, It’s like he was holding back the water, But the dam just broke, He said we’re cattle for the slaughter, We’re just used to the yoke, We used to be fire, But now we’re just smoke!

Outta Hell 02:41
I’ve got a woman and she’s straight out of hell, I’ve got a woman and she’s straight out of hell, I’ve got a woman and she’s straight out of hell, And I don’t kiss and tell, But she’s been ringing my bell. I’ve got a woman wears her heart on her sleeve, I’ve got a woman wears her heart on her sleeve, I’ve got a woman wears her heart on her sleeve, And it brings her relief, But it just ain’t for me. I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna, Breakdown tonight, But I might. I’ve got a woman want’s to kiss me goodnight, I’ve got a woman want’s to kiss me goodnight, I’ve got a woman want’s to kiss me goodnight, And it feels so nice, I just might do it twice. I’ve been a bad man, I’ve been a bad man, I’ve been a bad man, And I don’t give a damn, I’ll shake the devil’s hand.

Lone Wolf 04:42
Lone wolf, Under the full moon, Got a good look, At his new tattoo, And everybody shook, When they saw him move. Lone wolf, In the lagoon, He layer her down, To bloody his tooth, And there on the ground, She did not move And it might just be the worst thing I ever saw, Like a bird with no wings, you’re gonna fall, But a beast has got to feast, no matter the cost, Lone wolf, living tooth and claw. Lone wolf, Get out of town, You never should have came, Sniffing around, Now some angry farmer, Is gonna put you down. Lone wolf, Without a pack, Without a friend, To watch his back, It’s a hard, hard life, When you live like that.

Seen't It 04:14
Ive seen’t it all, Ive seen’t it all, I’ve seen the pride before the fall, I’ve seen the way of kings, The way they use us all, But the time for kings is gone, The writing’s on the wall. Ive seen’t it all, Ive seen’t it all, I’ve seen the forest for the trees before they fall, I count the rings, I see the season changes all, But when the trees are gone, The season carries on. Why are we born, Only to die. Ive seen’t it all, Ive seen’t it all, I’ve seen the tallest man look small, I’ve seen Goliath, After David kicked his balls, And they way he looked, When he knew he’s lost. We are we born, Only to die.

Original Sin 04:11
I ain't no Father, I ain't no Son, I ain't no Holy Ghost, No Trinity of one. I ain't the sinner, I'm the sin, I'm the one who whispers, Let's do it again. And you can't get better than Creator of original sin, No you can bet your money maker life is better, When I'm your friend, Until the world ends... I am a lover, Like no other, I pick the finest flower, And eat it for supper. So all you Mothers, Tell your daughters, Don't go rocking my boat, Don't go troubling my waters. You need me, But you're afraid of the need, So you beat me, And called me the beast, But all things feed, Yes you live to consume, And you fill yourselves up, Till you fill up the room. You buried me, But didn't know I was a seed, I lived the dirt, Right below your feet, But I am of this Earth, And the Earth is of me, So I fed it my hurt, And I grew like a weed. And I grow, Watch as I grow, I pray on your fears, And eat at your soul, I grind all your gears, Till you're nothing at all. Still I grow, Oh how I grow, As the months turn to years, And you fade and grow old, I draw back the curtain, And that's when you'll know....

Been In Love 03:11
I’ve been in love, I’ve been in love, I’ve been in love before, I had it all, I lost it all, And then I came back for more, Said you’d catch me if I fall, But I woke up on the floor. I’ve been alone, I’ve been alone, I’ve been alone before, All on my own, I built my home, And then I closed the door, That’s when you came a knocking, I said, what you knocking for? I’ve heard angels laughing, Devils crying, For you, Only you, And I wasn’t joking, When I said, I die for you, Only you. I’ve been a fool, I’ve been a fool, I’ve been a fool for you, What can I do, I know it’s true, But I had nothing to lose, Said you hate it when I joke, But you hate it when I don’t. (4th Verse)I’ve been alive, I’ve been alive, I’ve been alive before, So many times, I’ve wondered why, But I know one thing for sure, The only way to be alive, Is to let the past die.

You see that girl with the sun in her hair, Surfing all day with hardly a care, They’re robbing banks, Just to fuel their own summer, But Johnny knows, It’s and endless bummer But they’re about searching for the ride, No one knows what they will find. Mask on they guy is an ex-President, His stolen money, Already been spent, Forget it kid, You’re just chasing ghost, But the ghost that you chase, Is the one that you know. But they’re about searching for the ride, No one knows what they will find.
