STREETS WILL IGNITE
The world's been hijacked
The strong keep keeping the hold
Where it's money over nothing
And nothing's ever been harder to be sold
Controlled by corporations
By old gray business men
Who Counter punch the system
I believe it's time to reveal their sins
The streets will ignite
Until freedom takes its flight
Until people grab control
Spark a revolt
And riot against the world
Because it is our turn
So watch and learn
The gangs been locked up
The rules have been changed
Cut up and sold back to the land's
that
Grew it and chopped it up for their
own demands
Like children in bubbles
I feel they're slipping
Damn these fools
It's time to rise up and fix the state we're in
What's different about the world that
we're living in?
We all keep banging our heads to the
same rhythm
What's connected with the world that
the wars are laced in?
We all keep waving our flag.
The streets will ignite
Until freedom takes its flight
Until people grab control
Spark a revolt
And riot against the world
Because it is our turn
To let it burn
Stop
You’ll never catch me looking

Please say what you mean
Please don’t scream unless you mean what you say
And if you kiss me tonight
Before I leave to sleep
Know I'll be waking in the morning wondering
If you ever loved me
Because you say those words
Why don’t you? Don’t you?
Because you say those words
Why won't you?
We talk too much
Without ever saying a word
We kiss we touch
Look what love’s brought us
We talk too loud
Without ever making a sound
We’ve broken down
Look what love's taught us
Little by little by little by little
Please say
I promise you this
Stay awake from the rest of us
Just sit back
Please don’t watch me relapse
I can say that my mind's drawn to
confusion
Thinking about the way you’ve been
thinking about how you look
But only through a photograph of a
memory
Because you say those words
How could you? Could you?
Because you say those words
Why would you?
We talk too much
Without ever saying a word
We kiss we touch
Look what love’s brought us
We talk too loud
Without ever making a sound
We’ve broken down
Look what love's taught us
Little by little by little by little

CONTROL (ALIVE AGAIN)
To come back
I know I've wanted to
All this time
I fall past
Backwards towards thoughts that were
fixed in my mind
Forget about the concept of future
You just control your mind
I swear about the times I've been given
Cause I can't control the lines
Forever I've been packed away
And still I can't go
Forever I will find my way
Back to my mind
And back in control
I come back
You’re patiently waiting
I know I've tempted this multiple times
I tend to fall on bad habits
These addictions must be fixed now
Forget about the context of futures
You just control your eyes
I swear about the lines I've been living
But I can't control the fire
Taken
I’m taken
Taking control
Forever I've been packed away
And still I can't go home
Forever I will find my way
Back to my mind
I’m back in control
Forever I will be taking control of my
sweet lows
Of my sweet lows

Hush
Time, time wouldn’t tear us apart
desire, desire I will wear you with style
love, love should be fair on your heart
would it be right to stare and not touch?
so let’s start
and let’s go until the end babe
we don’t need to run, we don’t need to run
we can take this nice and slow
we don’t need to rush, we don’t need to rush
we just need to let this grow
Baby, hush
Stars, stars they with fill up the sky
your touch and embrace I can feel it
Let me shout the truth with an attitude for this world to view
let’s blow smoke and drink whiskey and make sure that you’ll miss me
it’s in the games that leave us bare
so let’s start
let’s go until the end babe
we don’t need to run, we don’t need to run
we can take this nice and slow
we don’t need to rush, we don’t need to rush
we just need to let this grow
baby hush
