I Explode 02:54
what's love? just a word to describe how you feel what you want, what you need, and all your appeal I've seen secrets that you'd kill to conceal now tell me, how does it feel? let's see how fast we can go let's see how fast we can go let's see how fast we can go let's see how fast we can go and these are fightin’ words don't you get it confused we'll leave you battered, leave you broken and leave you bruised pillage your village till there's nothing left then we're through cause that's what russians do, I Explode I Explode let's see how fast we can go let's see how fast we can go let's see how fast we can go let's see how fast I Explode I Explode

Someday 03:30
when I hear wedding bells I get up and run too tall to be a jockey, I just drink like one who’s gunna care when I’m said and done I’ve never seen fireworks in the falling snow the longer that I live, the less I know I’m sick of getting older, gunna take the money and go "Someday" I'll be there for you "Someday" I will treat you good "Someday" I will follow through like horses running over the hill "Someday" I'll be back for you I’m running out of chances to take my time, yeah who says love is a victimless crime I’d give it all away, for a shot just to make you mine built to be a scrapper, no intention to last intent on dying and doing it fast keep moving on with the thrill of an atomic blast "Someday" I'll be there for you "Someday" I will treat you good "Someday" I will follow through like horses running over the hill "Someday" I'll be back for you "Someday" I'll be there for you "Someday" I will treat you good "Someday" I will follow through like horses running over the hill "Someday" I'll be back for you

Wake 03:51
your eyes betray you and your words have done the same you've played with matches now there’s no one left to blame your smoky voice and seesaw laugh now your mother’s crying on your behalf no note just a photograph...why is that? wake up Alexandria it’s not your time to go to sleep there are secrets to behold there are promises to keep did you stop to think that you're not the only one now the day is over but the mournings just begun I'm standing here in the aftermath your sister’s crying an epitaph no note just a photograph...why is that? wake up Alexandria it’s not your time to go to sleep there are secrets to behold there are promises to keep wishing the world away wishing the world away one more endless day wake up Alexandria it’s not your time to go to sleep there are secrets to behold there are promises to keep wake up Alexandria it’s not your time to go to sleep WAKE UP WAKE there are secrets to behold there are promises to keep WAKE UP WAKE

Shine On 04:32
station to station, investigation pushing past redacted regulation proven collusion, controlled confusion walk the plank or join the illusion They put me down, they say I’m wrong They threaten me with discipline They say you can't shine in the dark I say all you need is a spark an expectation of validation the static hiss of no communication lie by omission, history revision a reign of blows for another incision mounting frustration, false constellation the stars are blackened with mass deviation denied admission, the worst position keep in step with mother's superstition They put me down, they say I’m wrong They threaten me with discipline They say you can't shine in the dark I say all you need is a spark shine like a diamond in the black sun we are not afraid let the night come shine like a diamond in the black sun we are not afraid tonight shine like a diamond in the black sun we are not afraid let the night come shine like a diamond in the black sun we are not afraid tonight They put me down, they say I’m wrong They threaten me with discipline They say you can't shine in the dark I say all you need is a spark shine like a diamond in the black sun we are not afraid let the night come shine like a diamond in the black sun we are not afraid tonight we are not afraid we are not afraid we are not afraid tonight we are not afraid we are not afraid we are not afraid tonight

Pines 03:12
loss of innocence, persistent, distance slipping away, regret and redemption, ashes fill the air, smells like winter, for a moment, I can remember is it ever enough to repent, is it ever enough to repent, between the lines, where the water meets the pines, is it ever enough to repent, is it ever enough wait, why won’t you wait, why won’t you wait for me, Sweet- heart Sweet- heart now it’s too late, skies are dark without the stars may the night cover me with leaves and a blanket of virgin snow, it's easier to die than grow old, it's easier to die then grow old, is it ever enough to repent, it's never enough wait, why won’t you wait, why won’t you wait for me, Sweet- heart Sweet- heart

She’s starting fires in fifty states a kind of love that I can’t escape it’s not the time but it’s getting closer our backs are arched up against the ropes what’s the future if nobody knows I want to follow you as far as it goes I know there’s risks but I’ll take my chances I’d forgotten how sweet romance is We Love Like Violence, With Guns We Love Like Violence, with Violence, Violence, Violence knock down drag out kicked out the habit gotta get back down to what’s at the heart of it knock down drag out kicked out the habit When we Die, We Die Like Heroes She was raised to revolt She knows the war chants note for note I’m a man of my mistakes sentenced here to clean my plate knock down drag out kicked out the habit gotta get back down to what’s at the heart of it knock down drag out kicked out the habit when we Die, We Die Like Heroes We Love Like Violence, With Guns We Love Like Violence, with Violence, Violence, Violence when we Die, We Die Like Heroes [We love like violence, with guns] when we Die, We Die Like Heroes [We love like violence, with guns] when we Die, We Die Like Heroes [We love like violence, with guns] when we Die

Fool's Crown 04:16
I woke up this morning, what did I see another Fool staring back at me been down this way for far too long I sing my song and now I'm gone, So long I don’t remember, do you recall who’s been a fool of alcohol I’ve gone astray and I’ve been wrong I’ve been the fool and now I’m gone, so long it all comes crashing down there sits the king without his crown and it all comes crashing down there sits the queen without her crown diesel dust and the wrath of gods we are a tiny speck in a mysterious fog we are the known for while knowing less we are the hubris of our own success it all comes crashing down there sits the king without his crown and it all comes and it all comes crashing down there sits the queen without her crown when it all comes crashing down who’ll be the fool behest of the crown

Desert Song 03:36
runnin’ on empty runnin’ scared evil billows through the streets wind’s blowin’ through my hair ain’t no sense of danger ain’t no will to die ain't the hairs standin’ on the back of my neck or shivers runnin’ down my spine spiderweb windshield one good eye no rear mirrors, no looking back and we’re changing names on the fly wrong side of the highway blood on the grill ransom in the trunk still screamin’ for help while the white lines make me want to kill, kill, kill chasing love losing money extradited from my country chaos reigns ain’t it funny always buying what we’re sold life is short the sentence long feels all right when you're doing all wrong so just sit back and watch the world implode chasing love losing money extradited from my country chaos reigns ain’t it funny always buying what we’re sold life is short the sentence long feels all right when you're doing all wrong so just sit back and watch the world implode
