Move It or Lose It 02:44
lyrics

"Never learned to mind your manners, Could you keep down the noise?!" Well, Mr. Man, now understand that I'mma give you a choice. YEAH! Turn around or play a sound, make some use and rejoice. Ohhhhh "I'll get it out, get it loud, may just raise up my voice!" YEAH! I heard you're hiding out I'll make you move it now I bet you feel it, Something strange coming on. You know you're wired now To go and groove it out I bet you feel it, Something strange coming on "Had enough of having nothing, nothing at all, I could've caught it had I known right from the beginning, Had I known then what I know now, I would have swayed a different way, Made a bigger change, But I know, I know, I know where to go when the weight of the world is feeling heavy and my burning will is giving out, I've got an outlet with you right here I feel something strange Coming on." ooooooo

Little Place 03:19

Found a little place where I live, Gonna be a big star, Someday. Found a little place, where I live, Gonna be a big star, Someday. Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Ohhhhhh Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na OHHHH I don't really want to but I will Cycle through my friends to know what's real I don't really care to but I steal I don't really want to but I feel. And what would you say, If I told you about my life? Gossip and here-say could not relay All my strife To garner your bouquet, You must first be faced with the knife. Found a little place where I live, Gonna be a big star, Someday. Everyone I know calls their dibs, They're gonna be a big star, Someday. Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na NA Na Na Na Na Ohhhhhh Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na NA Na Na Na Na OHHHH I don't really want to but I will Cycle through my friends to know what's real I don't really care to but I steal I don't really want to but I feel.

Shake the Shadow 04:59
lyrics

When'd the going get so rough? What'd you do to jade and numb your feeling? Maybe you could make those cuffs break. When'd you go and get so lost? What'd it take to make your thoughts stray To places that'd make your faith fade? I can see the mess they've made, I can could go and say it's hopeless, Taking all the pain and wait to detonate till you blow. I stick around a sec and see the sun is getting low It's setting down but I, I think I already know The creatures crawling and they're crying "Hahahaha, we'll take you round and flip you upside down inside out" The shade is shifting swiftly surely it should never slow It takes you down but I, I think I'm ready to grow I'm thinking now you're sick and sinking "Ahhhhhh" I look around, and I, I think I'm ready to goooo Can't shake the shadow Don't let it hang where you know You know it goes where you glow. This light is shallow But I can feel it all this time And and it feels Like those gallows Are wearing thin and I'm on my way as I make my way Though the blaze This light it hallows And I'm amazed at the maze we made Bridge: Ahhhh ahh ah ahhhhh *instrumental* Chorus 2: Can't shake the shadow Don't let it hang where you know You know it goes where you glow. This light is shallow But I can feel it all this time And and it feels Like those gallows Are wearing thin and I'm on my way as I make my way Though the blaze This light it hallows And I'm amazed at the maze we made.

Days can end before they break, Something's making hard to perpetuate, This feeling's coming on. Dare me to be wrong? But I know I'm Dreading common place 'cause I don't belong, Headin from the States And it won't be long, Because I want it all. Dare to live like that I swear, I got this compass in my pocket And no place to go, I think it's best I try my luck Off of the western coast, 'Cause if I saw it all, You wouldn't stare And wonder why I'm dreamin'. Waiting for a wave to make its way off shore, To take this ticking time I've wasted Towards the way of the storm, 'Cause if I knew it all, I wouldn't waste a day while I'm still breathin'. Fear beyond the water Makes it harder To sink in bliss. Steer me Without bother Let me wander to far places. Veer the Chance of charter And you'll fall far from the brink and slip. So hear me, As the martyr, As the wanderer of far places. I spent my precious time, And I bought what I want to do. You dreamt and made it in your mind, I got up while you hit snooze. Wake up Don't dream it Life could be yours if you start to believe it. So stay up Go breach it Peak to the ledge if you stretch you can reach it! What's been calling does it speak and surround you? Whats the cause of all these sounds that astound you? What's the cost of all this doubt that confounds you? What's been stopping ship from all this life around you? What's appalling from the want for more? I'm here now To stay I'm here now to stay Hey When'd you get so down? I could lift you up Make you free from sticking to sinking ground Let you see this love Let me show you how I found This life here now Without fear to stay. What I say is what I mean Don't you hear it? What I live is what I breathe Can't you feel it? What I see is clear to me Don't believe it? Then how, About Being here now Without fear To stay?
