All4You You’ve owned Blown it You’ve known it’s all in your head Tomorrow will fall And I don’t know what it gives She won’t give up No, she won’t discuss it And it’s over now She’s gonna live it up Emotions are flowin Just know it’s all in your head From sorrow to hollow And you don’t know what it is She won’t give up, no she never trusted him She’s older now and she’s gonna live it up Don’t really care what it’s all about Time will tell when it’s figured out Colors won’t stop till they’re faded out Pain won’t stop till we set it free No one’s gonna try to fix you up It all falls flat when you’re high enough Love’s gonna be there just for you Heart’s gonna beat and it’s all for you Emotions are flowin Just know it’s all in your head From sorrow to hollow And you don’t know what it is I just can’t forget all of my enemies And I’ll make sure they never will forget me Out of breath Haven’t slept I just gotta take it slow All works out Anyways I just gotta let it go It’s not always about Who you’re with and what you’re wearing I’m sorry, confused, and I don’t know how I feel Trying so hard just to play it cool Livin this life like it’s all for you People don’t care when you want’m to Don’t ask me to change No one’s gonna try to fix you up It all falls flat when you’re high enough Love’s gonna be there just for you

5.

Heart’s gonna beat and it’s all for you All works out Anyway I just gotta let it go Not always about Who you’re with and what you’re wearing This life is amazing When it’s all for you You’ve owned Blown it You’ve known it’s all in your head Tomorrow will fall And I don’t know what it gives She won’t give up No, she won’t discuss it And it’s over now She’s gonna live it up Emotions are flowin Just know it’s all in your head From sorrow to hollow And you don’t know what it is She won’t give up, no she never trusted him Cause she’s older now and she’s gonna live it up

Beach Daze Beach Daze, on weekdays Floating, into outer space If only, they told me Now I’m turning my time Into gold I’m in love With a shade of grey Got my sleeves rolled up You know it’s just a phase Now the crowds are gone And the voices say Oh happiness Won’t you come my way Beach Daze, on weekdays Floating, into outer space If only, they told me Now I’m turning my time Into gold Remember how a song When it used to come on And it’d take you to another place Baby that’s all I want That’s all I want I’m struggling to believe And it’s there for all my friends to see When it really shouldn’t matter to me But I’m only human I just wanna say They’ll be better days Build my castle back up To watch it wash away If we’re gonna fall out Know forever they’ll be Beach Daze, on weekdays Floating, into outer space If only, they told me Now I’m turning my time Into gold Imagine time as a currency Would you spend it on things that don’t make you happy?

In this moment, realize You make the difference

Breakin’ Up I was lyin here dreamin on a weekend When you came around Oh You know I want it It all feels better when I'm sleeping Don't have to think about All the same old problems You never see the edge that you're standing on till you fall So you got something to say now But you're Breakin up You only missed me for a day now And we're makin up I was caught up in the haze But now I'm wakin up Cuz it's always the same ya know That's why I gotta go Wanting it all was your weakness That's why ya came around Oh So let's be honest You never been good at keeping secrets Having trouble speaking And it's getting old The same old problems You never see the edge that you're standing on till you fall So you got something to say now But you're Breakin up You only missed me for a day now And we're makin up I was caught up in the haze But now I'm wakin up Cuz it's always the same ya know That's why I gotta go So you got something to say now But you're Breakin up You only missed me for a day now And we're makin up I was caught up in the haze But now I'm wakin up Cuz it's always the same ya know That's why I gotta go Baby well it's all over now Baby well it's all over now Taken me this long to figure out That it's all over now

Don't Waste My Time Wish I could be A novelty And watch the world make a believer out of me Wish I could sing In harmony And I bet all the chairs would turn around for me Won't let it get the best of me But this celebrity obsession is depressing me Sometimes I feel like they're just testing me When all I want is something real (from you) Question everything that we've been told Start returning everything that we've been sold No label got my logo on Cuz I'm in this with or without you Don't waste Don't waste Don't waste my Don't waste Won't waste Don't waste my

my my time my my time

Think if I speak Just what I mean Would they bury me beneath a world of meme's?

Maybe the truth Is what we need But instead we get the same old melodies Where's feeling when you need it most?

"Sinnerman" hit me like Ms. Simone Radio is like silicon When all we want is something real (from you) Is this life or just an episode?

Now everyone's the star of their own video I hate to be the one to tell them all That this ain't what we're looking for (from you) Don't waste Don't waste Don't waste my Don't waste Won't waste Don't waste my

my my time my my time

Forever Dreams Would I for you, forget em?

Could I forget em?

Would I forget em?

Cuz I’m in this forever All in forever Cuz I’m in this forever Is this a dream?

If this was my dream Then it's not what it seems Must be a dream cuz you're making me be things that I don't believe If this was my dream Then you'd never leave me lying around with my heart on my sleeve If this was my dream You'd be followin me, darling If I had it all Would you go tell your friends about me Till I have it all Won't you go tell your friends, go tell your friends That I'm in this forever All in forever Cuz I'm in this forever Now you're out on your own Where nothing is real and it's all for the show Pulling these strings and showing me things that I already know If I had it all Would you go tell your friends Would you go tell the world that you're in till the end Till I have it all Just go tell your friends, go tell your friends That I'm in this forever All in forever Cuz I'm in this forever

Ghost-Land One, two, three Tell me do you still believe In the shuffle generation The heartbeat of the nation Baby got me dripping like a honeybee For all the world to see So give me one more reason In California dreaming The way she plays the breeze in her hair Like she just don't care And everybody's watching Don't worry bout me (if I wake up in the morning) I'm doing fine I wake up in the morning (if I wake up in the morning) I'll be all right Are you living in a Ghost-Land?

Four, five, six Go on and take your pick We’ve got endless information Just use your imagination Tried to fix me up I said just let it bleed For all the world to see Don't worry bout me (if I wake up in the morning) I'm doing fine I wake up in the morning (if I wake up in the morning) I'll be all right Are you living in a Ghost-Land?

So give me one more reason In California dreaming The way she plays the breeze in her hair Like she just don't care And everybody's watching Don't worry bout me You know I’ll be fine If I wake up in the morning I'll be all right

Headphones Strollin down the boardwalk In the absence of gravity Now you’re trippin on a melody Oh baby, I know what you want and you know I’ll keep it coming We met on the road Then we hung out at the show Now I’m on my way back home But I’ll still be in your headphones We met on the road Then we hung out at the show Now I’m on my way back home But I’ll still be in your headphones On the cover Dressed for all Overflowing Lick the sweat off your lip is

of a magazine the world to see electricity when you know you really got me

We met on the road Then we hung out at the show Now I’m on my way back home But I’ll still be in your headphones We met on the road Then we hung out at the show Now I’m on my way back home But I’ll still be in your headphones Ahhh, pretty girl With me you’ll never grow older Let’s show the world what true love can be Did ya fall in love with me?

Or was it just a melody That set you free Turn the dial off, cuz there’s nothin on the radio Let me break it down like an El-Ca-Mi-No Hit me in my soul Hit me in my soul Hit me in my soul, baby, hit me and I’ll never let you go We met on the road Then we hung out at the show Now I’m on my way back home But I’ll still be in your headphones

House Of Cards I think I got the message About where we stand Changing my perspective About who I am I’m never gonna know If I never let go Of everything taken from me That’s when she said baby You just got to believe House of cards and I’m down to live it Cuz tomorrow is a new day We know it hurts, but you gotta forgive it Cuz tomorrow is a new day We know it’s hard, but that’s a given Cuz tomorrow is a new day No turning back cause I’m already in it And tomorrow is a new day, new day Moment after moment, in your hands Slipping through your fingers, like grains of sand You’re never gonna know If it’s gonna show you All that it means It’s up to you to figure it out House of cards and I’m down to live it Cuz tomorrow is a new day We know it hurts, but you gotta forgive it Cuz tomorrow is a new day We know it’s hard, but that’s a given Cuz tomorrow is a new day No turning back cause I’m already in it And tomorrow is a new day, new day Well lately, all of this time that I’ve thought about You know, I’ve thought about the past And how it’s changed me If I had taken another way Don’t let this weigh on me, just let me be Because I’ve already seen House of cards and I’m down to live it Cuz tomorrow is a new day We know it hurts, but you gotta forgive it Cuz tomorrow is a new day We know it’s hard, but that’s a given Cuz tomorrow is a new day No turning back cause I’m already in it And tomorrow is a new day, new day

Human Condition Just because you shared it Ain’t enough We’re living in a world That needs savin Everything around us Dividing up Never been a wall More famous I’m looking for the words To sum it up The best that we can do is That’s amazing It had a different meaning growin up But now we’re just getting lazy Now we’re just getting lazy Cuz I know When the going gets tough Feeling like you’ve had enough It’s how bad you want it Want it And I know When the ceiling is low And your hearts beating cold It’s how bad you want it Want it Can work all your life And it ain’t enough Dad would tell me If I’m gonna make it That ninety five percent’s just showing up The other five percent’s how you fake it So I fooled around And fell in love Started writing songs to explain it Watching all my friends doing drugs And the music’s what saved me Cuz I know When the going gets tough Feeling like you’ve had enough It’s how bad you want it Want it And I know When the ceiling is low And your hearts beating cold It’s how bad you want it Want it They made it so hard

24.

Just to do what we love There’s no money So it’s best to forget it Has everyone around us given up Before they had a chance to regret it We signed it all away Just to blow it up I guess we had to live it to learn it Ask us if we’d do it again But we’re already in Cuz I know When the going gets tough Feeling like you’ve had enough It’s how bad you want it Want it And I know When the ceiling is low And your hearts beating cold It’s how bad you want it Want it It’s just the human condition I guess It’s just the way that it is I guess It’s just the human condition I guess It’s just the way that it is

Keep Me Young She asked why won’t you stay with me?

Cuz trusting’s my worst enemy So take this opportunity To be more than a friend Always in her element Shares her room Just to make her rent Don’t care about the government She’s a dual-citizen Drink this potion Let it soak in Fall like dominos Rollercoaster’s Set in motion Shape of things to come I love it how Keep I love it how Keep

Levitate One shot and I'm holdin But I don't care Cuz I'm Golden Woke up Sunday mornin With a song stuck in my head (La la la) I'm seeing things right before me That used to own me But that's the old me And give it up Was the best thing that they said We almost had it all once again All bets say they won't make it Some day we'll have this thing figured out Till then Better go and tell'm We're gonna celebrate So watch me as I levitate Gonna celebrate So watch me as I levitate 3 o'clock in the mornin Under the moonlight Another moment Stretched out with a centerfold That I can't get out of my head All these things that they told me They used to mold me But that's the old me We're goin straight to the stars Cause that's who we are We almost had it all once again All bets say they won't make it Some day we'll have this thing figured out Till then Better go and tell'm We're gonna celebrate So watch me as I levitate (Let's take this way too far) We don't discriminate (No matter who you are) So watch me as I levitate We're gonna celebrate (Let’s take this way too far) Gonna celebrate (No matter who you are) So watch me as I levitate (We’ve all got battle scars) We don't discriminate (We’ll take you past the stars) So watch me as I levitate

Right To Know We gotta right to know Who’s gonna take control You know the temperature’s rising A moment in time So let’m know For the sake of rock n’ roll We’re never gonna let it go You know your city is calling A warning for all So let’m know We’ve had it good Had it bad One step forward A hundred back All around Screaming out Where’s my country?

I want it now Grandpa’s gold Your mama sold All these tales are never told We’re more alike then you’ll ever know Alternate facts On attack Bless her heart She’s just learning Boys and girls See the world Through a screen Eyes are burning Those days aren’t coming back Hate to be the one to tell ya So what are we fighting for We gotta right to know Who’s gonna take control You know the temperature’s rising A moment in time So let’m know For the sake of rock n’ roll

We’re never gonna let it go You know your city is calling A warning for all So let’m know For the sake of rock n’ roll

39.

Seasons change As we’re dreaming of Yesterday Now you’re living like You are the only one Is like playing with yourself And that’s no fun at all We don’t wanna talk too much about it We don’t understand it at all “Lust, but no love. Passion, but no compassion. Without love, we are nothing!”

The Professionals, 1966 We don’t wanna talk too much about it Cuz we don’t understand it at all We gotta right to know Who’s gonna take control You know the temperature’s rising A moment in time So let’m know For the sake of rock n’ roll We’re never gonna let it go You know your city is calling A warning for all So let’m know

Satellites If you could see The world from here We're satellites in the air No pain, no fear Just floating through the atmosphere I wish, my dear Take me away from here And we'll disappear Like satellites in the air Just like satellites in the air You ever feel like luck Never came to your house Stay awake Even with the lights out Felt like giving up It's like you're always stuck Always staring up Looking for a sign Somehow you laugh like it's never gonna work out Find yourself hangin with the wrong crowd But everything has meaning Darlin just believe me It's darker than it seems Till you open your eyes If you could see The world from here We're satellites in the air No pain, no fear Just floating through the atmosphere I wish my dear Take me away from here And we'll disappear Like satellites in the air Ask me when I'm getting married Yeah I hate that hate that But will I go to hell if I ain't that?

Tell me that I'm different, yeah I'll take that take that Sorry I was never one to fake that So tear it up These words don't have a meaning When all we want is for something to believe in Sorry to interrupt Fill up your paper cup The world won't wait for us We should already be leaving Cuz we weren't made to understand

42.

All the things That we'll never have Trapped inside a wonderland Lookin for truth If you could see The world from here We're satellites in the air No pain, no fear Just floating through the atmosphere I wish my dear Take me away from here And we'll disappear Like satellites in the air “We meet in an hour of change and challenge, in a decade of hope and fear, in an age of both knowledge and ignorance. The greater our knowledge increases, the more our ignorance unfolds.�

John F. Kennedy Rice University September 12, 1962

Spotlight Baby, if you’re gonna make it There’s a moment Then you gotta let it go Show me that we’re gonna make it It’s time to wake up Cuz you’re getting old So you’re telling me that I should fake it Secure a paycheck Might as well sell my soul Surely you must be mistaken, I’ll never shake it See, it’s all I know Gonna be alright, brighter than sunlight Far as the eye can see Stealing my highlights, fuckin with my life Like you never had a dream Movin it slow, losing control Nowhere I’d rather be Tangerine spotlights Gonna be alright Just let me be Remember that time in Vegas, playin favorites Said it’s your time now take it Back at our home I shoulda known Right when I caught that overtone Now that the moment’s faded, the things you hated Start to take control Maybe it’s time we break it, tried to save it Now we gotta let it go Gonna be alright, brighter than sunlight Far as the eye can see Stealing my highlights, fuckin with my life Like you never had a dream Movin it slow, losing control Nowhere I’d rather be Tangerine spotlights Gonna be alright Just let me be I just wanna love you All my life Even when we go through Harder times Now that you’re alone now I hope you’ll find When you come back home It’ll be all right Darlin’

Strong Enough No one said you had to be Another celebrity Cuz life’s already this hard Being just the way you are The things you’ll go through Nobody’s gonna tell you Just how lucky you are It ain’t easy Just to make it this far Tired of playing tough For everyone Days will get rough Clearly you’ve had enough Darlin’ lemme hold you up Tired of being strong Just know that you’re not alone Even when the feeling is gone I’ll keep you holding on At times when you’re feeling small I promise that you’ll get through it all Even when the sun’s not around You’ll always be a light in the crowd Tired of playing tough For everyone Days will get rough Clearly you’ve had enough Darlin’ lemme hold you up Tired of being strong Just know that you’re not alone Even when the feeling is gone I’ll keep you holding on Back in the old days We’d always talk about Some day Countin all the money We’d make And kissing All our problems away Now that it’s been so long Finding out that we were So wrong The only way we made it this far Is staying just the way we are

Stupid LA Love Song We got it all A magic potion The baddest girls The fastest cars The bluest oceans We got it all You get the notion That this is not another stupid LA love song Traveled far, but now I’m home Learning things I’ve always known Been a while, it got away from me But that’s just how it goes I was pure and I was young Underneath the Cali sun Hollywood seemed far away for some But that’s just where we’re from City lines and rivalries All my firsts down at the beach They said the best was yet to come But I’m still waiting People come and people go But from the start, it’s all we know Slow it down Give it up To the place that brought us up Cuz We got it all A magic potion The baddest girls The fastest cars The bluest oceans We got it all You get the notion That this is not another stupid LA love song She’s cruel in her own way Will send you back from where ya came An angel in a devil’s cape But the angel’s not to blame So take me back to yesterday Help me fly away Help me fly away Cuz People come and people go Slow it down Give it up To the place that brought us up

49.

Cuz We got it all A magic potion The baddest girls The fastest cars The bluest oceans We got it all You get the notion That this is not another stupid LA love song We got it all Constant commotion Swaying palms Summer breeze Life in slow motion We got it all You get the notion That this is not another stupid LA love song Every time I leave Every time I go I just wanna come home
