Neon 03:13
Bright-eyed and blushing I turned to the world. The pallid city stared back at me. Stole a portion of light From my dreaming eyes. Turned it to neon along the streets. The covetous world set its gaze on my heart. It needed a torch to light up the dark. It tore me apart And stole the stars from my eyes. Now I'm just neon blinking perpetually Where does the city get its light But from the innocence of its immigrants? Where does the city get its light But from the innocence of its immigrants. The next time you drive down that long boulevard, Don't look at the sky for its handful of stars: Look at the neon illuminate the dark-- The city's alive with the light from the innocent hearts. The covetous world set its gaze on my heart. It needed a torch to light up the dark. It tore me apart.

Mr. Hewitt gets up every day at four Makes his coffee, grabs his keys and he's out the door It's a nightmare It's a sentence Nothin' in life is free It's your life here Just remember So what's it gonna be You work hard Work your fingers To bone that turns to dust And you make an honest living There's no choice because you must Jane's a waitress at the shabby corner cafe The people need her to bring food and make it snappy It's a nightmare It's a sentence Nothin' in life is free It's your life here Just remember So what's it gonna be You work hard Work your fingers To bone that turns to dust And you make an honest living There's no choice because you must Forty hours a week pushin' buttons Forty hours a week, you still got nothin' All the doors that you see, they keep shuttin' Traverse or travail Fight tooth or fight nail Break your back and prevail You must You work hard Work your fingers To bone that turns to dust And you make an honest living There's no choice because you must You must

Another Shot 03:06
I knew you missed me when you pulled the trigger Before the bullet passed by my shoulder Then I waited for another shot to ring out Then I waited for another shot to ring out Nighttime hot and daytime colder Before I laid down in the clover Then I waited for another shot to ring out Then I waited for another shot to ring out I knew you missed me when you pulled the trigger Before the bullet passed by my shoulder Your aim Won't matter in the dark It's not hard To miss an incandescent heart Run now I will give you a headstart Go on I sorely missed you when you pulled the trigger My world has, since then, grown much bigger Still I'm waiting for another shot to ring out Still I'm waiting for another shot

You say you don't have a dime If you want, I'll give you mine Give you mine You say you don't have a clue Of exactly what to do I'll clear it up for you It's not complicated It's just what you make it You were first and now you're last Did you steer off of the track Off the track You think life is full of lies With no room for compromise Open your eyes It's not complicated It's just what you make it It's not complicated It's just what you make it You can try and shake it But it catches up to you It's not complicated It's just what you make it You can try and shake it But it catches up to you It's not complicated It's just what you make it It's not complicated It's just what you make it

He's got somewhere to go He's got somewhere to be Was it Chicago Or was it New York City My friends are all askin' me When they get to meet my man I said maybe next month When he gets back from Amsterdam He says "oh baby You know I really love you so" He sent it via text message From Toledo He sent it via text message From Toledo I buried my heart six feet underground I'm waiting around for a boy out of town I'm gettin' lonely I'm gettin' lonely I buried my heart six feet underground I'm waiting around for a boy out of town I'm gettin' lonely I'm gettin' lonely He's got a little twinkle around his eyes That I just want to eat up He's got a little way when he says his goodbyes That just makes me heat up I buried my heart six feet underground I'm waiting around for a boy out of town I'm gettin' lonely I'm gettin' lonely I buried my heart six feet underground I'm waiting around for a boy out of town I'm gettin' lonely I'm gettin' lonely I buried my heart six feet underground I'm waiting around for a boy out of town I'm gettin' lonely I'm gettin' lonely She buried her heart She buried her heart She buried her heart I buried my heart six feet underground I'm waiting around for a boy out of town I'm gettin' lonely I'm gettin' lonely I buried my heart six feet underground I'm waiting around for a boy out of town I'm gettin' lonely I'm gettin' lonely

Lost My Way 03:59
Nobody's hurt me like this before Nobody's heard me say this before How can a strong heart like this be sore Nobody's hurt me like this before I lost my way Lost my sanity My sanity I saw you hide Beneath the canopy Of vanity I had a dream it was a lonely night I had a dream I was a lonely knight I wore armor and my horse was white I had a dream it was a lonely night I lost my way Lost my sanity My sanity I saw you hide Beneath the canopy Of vanity Fate in the night sky The stars are aligned But fate has no answer And stars aren't a sign I lost my way Lost my sanity My sanity I saw you hide Beneath the canopy Of vanity I lost my way Lost my sanity My sanity I saw you hide Beneath the canopy Of vanity

Allison 03:36
Out in Richmond there's a pretty girl you've never met She lives on the corner of Hopes & Dreams and the cross-street Not-Just-Yet Ooh, ooh She knows just where she stands Ooh, ooh Wish I could see her again The last time that I saw her face it was the middle of July She showed us around, and made us laugh, and when I left her I cried Ooh, ooh She's the best kind of friend Ooh, ooh Wish I could see her again Allison, Allison Allison, Allison She's written books and toured the world, but she's still innocent She doesn't always say what she thinks, but you know just what she meant Ooh, ooh She's the best kind of friend Ooh, ooh Wish I could see her again Allison, Allison Allison, Allison She's on the cusp of greatness, but she doesn't know it yet All she knows is what she gives is what she's gonna get Ice lays beyond her doorstep Spring springs from her soul Any time she's not near Your heart feels the hole Ooh, ooh She shines so bright Ooh, ooh She shines with all her might Ooh, ooh She's the best kind of friend Ooh, ooh Wish I could see her again Allison, Allison Allison, Allison Allison, Allison Allison, Allison

Fool's Gold 03:45
Seven years Seven thousand "I love yous" Wedding cake You knew it was a mistake Just another tragic story And I guess you just want the glory Leave me be 'Cause baby, I don't want your kind of freedom Too many seasons Too many reasons to let it go Kingdom come And your will was surely done Wedding bed Wore that dress and forgot what you said Just another tragic story And I guess you just want the glory You let me down With your plated aluminum crown Only fool's gold Could do justice to the lies that you told You let me down With your plated aluminum crown Only fool's gold Could do justice to the lies that you told

They broke your heart On Thanksgiving Day Forgot all about you Had nothin' to say You went home and cried You didn't' know why You let them get to you Just keep your chin up You'll be okay He broke your heart He left you alone He had somebody else Waiting at home You thought it was love And maybe it was But not the kind that you want Just keep your chin up You belong on a throne Your mother told you When you were little Your face was all freckled From the lies that you told You tried to be good You did what you could But it was never enough Just keep your chin up You're beautiful Oh how the past can make The present hard to bear You want a better life But don't know if you dare You were dealt a bad hand There's no doubt in my mind But I want you to know You're one of a kind You went off to college You got your degree You're writing a novel And makin' money You're changing your stars You've gotten so far Everything will work out right Just keep your chin up Just wait and see Just keep your chin up Just wait and see Just keep your chin up Just wait and see Just keep your chin up Just wait and see .....

Lazy Stone 03:33
Someone's knockin' at my door While I'm sitting on my floor Someone's ringin' up my phone While I pretend that I'm not home No moss Will grow On a rolling stone They keep on coming back for more With all that knockin' at my door Knockin' 'till their fist is sore From all that knockin' at my door No moss Will grow On a rolling stone The moss is always greener On the other side of your lazy stone

New Mexico 02:55
Oh, I flew off the road Out in New Mexico There was nothin' No, nothin' I could do With my baby beside me Woo hoo hoo Oh, I flew off the road In Thoreau, New Mexico Saw my life Flash right before my eyes Cool as a cucumber I didn't even cry Oh, I flew off the road Out in New Mexico I could only Say my baby's name Ice on the road We were a puck In a hockey game Oh, we hit that lonesome ditch And the night was black as pitch There was nothin' No nothin' I could do With my baby beside me Woo hoo hoo When we stopped there in the snow In Thoreau, New Mexico My baby kissed me Smack-dab on my lips Face-to-face with death You know the thing to do is kiss Oh, I flew off the road Out in New Mexico There was nothin' No, nothin' I could do With my baby beside me Woo hoo hoo With my baby beside me Woo hoo hoo With my baby beside me Woo hoo hoo

No Ordinary 03:38
Looking back on that night Drinking wine in the parking lot I remember the way You smiled and said my name Oh your love it took me By the heart and shook me I didn't know 'til then I was sleeping You saved me From ordinary You saved me You turned my life around People always said Love like this didn't exist I slept for a hundred years You woke me with a single kiss Oh your love it took me By the heart and shook me I didn't know 'til then I was sleeping You saved me From ordinary You saved me Oh your love it took me By the heart and shook me I didn't know 'til then I was sleeping You saved me From ordinary You saved me We sat on the porch you said you'd love me forever We kissed in the car and I told you I'd never Leave you or hurt you I'd only make you happy I won't ever make you sad I won't ever make you sorry You've given me an extraordinary life When you married me I swear I felt a light Shining down from somewhere above This is no ordinary love

Like You Were Before (free) 05:02
It seems like just yesterday We were walkin' hand in hand But we both went our separate ways We didn't know what life had planned So much time has slipped away So many years gone by But we forgot and forgave We both knew the reasons why Footsteps at my door You're there like you were before But it's only in my mind 'Cause you went and left us behind Oh I Don't know why You had to go away Every day I miss your face So many things I had left to say I remember that guitar I remember our first kiss But I didn't know time was short Afterall, we were just kids I found out yesterday You had left this life for good But I can still see the smile on your face And I can't believe that you could Footsteps at my door You're there like you were before But it's only in my mind 'Cause you went and left us behind Oh I Don't know why You had to go away Every day I miss your face But I just know I'll see you again And I can't wait
