A thousand miles,
Oh a million more
We will run
Till our hearts bleed out
No mountain high
No valley low
Ain't no place
I can't call my home

The Harlot Train
04:23

Wake, you wake with hate
Stoic tears in a seeping barrel
Like cheap watered down wine
Down, down desperate fine lines
Bent like a sun down dial
Watch as your love fade out
Bottom of the smoking gun
Get off that train, that leads you to nowhere!
Trading for a life of comfort and wild deceit,
He's got you, he got you good
Get off that train, that leads you to nowhere!
Trading for the soul you sold in the haste and smoke
It's the devil's spell bound lust
Shaken and stirred
Got you drowning
Like a slow emancipating dream
The never ending chain of wildfire rain,
He's a twist of shift and shame
Come on light the fuse inside
We're losing you to the darkest night
The silence is a paring knife
Speak up, don't bleed into a double down fight
Get off that train, that leads you to nowhere!
Trading for a life of comfort and wild deceit,
He's got you, he got you good
Get off that train, that leads you to nowhere!
Trading for the soul you sold in the haste and smoke
It's the devil's spell bound lust
I let him in my arms
I'll never watch him pull away
I'm in love oh darling
I kiss him like I'm drowning
He is my air, chain me up inside
Get off that train, that leads you to nowhere!
Trading for a life of comfort and wild deceit,
He's got you, he got you good
Get off that train, that leads you to nowhere!
Trading for the soul you sold in the haste and smoke
It's the devil's spell bound lust

Catch On Fire

Liar liar when ya gonna learn
The bridges you burned, left us in a spiral
You put on your cross and cry daily "sinner woe is me"
Oh yeah I'm almost buying it
Don't nobody believe your tears
Like the kid with his hand in the cookie jar
Sayin "mama imma checking for the count,
just checking the count."
Oohooh Oohooh
You are gonna catch on fire, catch on fire
Oohooh Oohooh
You are gonna catch on fire, catch on fire
Boys like these give us all a bad name
Ladies I know he's a bro but don't you go believing, no
We're not two of a kind
Though we are one of the same kind
What kind of nonsense is this game anyway?
Well listen up, it's a shame shame shame
You could be so much more but this is lame lame lame
And if you're hearing this song and if you're so vain
Well yeah this is about you
Oohooh Oohooh
You are gonna catch on fire, catch on fire
Oohooh Oohooh
You are gonna catch on fire, catch on fire
Oohooh Oohooh
You are gonna catch on fire, catch on fire
Oohooh Oohooh
You are gonna catch on fire, catch on fire
Sell sell sell somebody's gonna buy it
Keep telling yourself that
Sell sell sell somebody's gonna buy it
Oohooh Oohooh
You are gonna catch on fire, catch on fire
Oohooh Oohooh
You are gonna catch on fire, catch on fire
Oohooh Oohooh
You are gonna catch on fire, catch on fire
Oohooh Oohooh
You are gonna catch on fire, catch on fire
Oohooh Oohooh
You are gonna catch on fire, catch on fire
Oohooh Oohooh
You are gonna catch on fire, catch on fire

Invincible

Got up on the wrong side
Way too late to beat the rush
Rush of this speeding train
Right at the end of my line
Line at the end of my rope
I'm the loser they call irresponsible
I've been cheating to the sound this drum
To the annoyance of my neighbour
Got trouble coming my way again
Round, round, the warning in my head goes,
"I'm gonna be a star someday,
Oh mama don't you cry for me no more,
Gimme one more day, one more song for the road"
Ain't nobody gonna love me the way you do
Ain't nobody gonna love me the way you do
And I feel invincible when you are here
And I feel invincible when you are near
Nobody gonna love me the way you do
Oh fortune, where was our wager?
Can we cash in on the favour?
Did we wing it, did we wing it?
We used to be so much braver,
Used to hang low from the squalor, swinging,
Like there's something in the water.
In the least of us,
The quiet, relentless, achievers,
Unrequited believers.
When our fear is blistering through the skin
No one can take it away
When all the blood of this
Psycho, social, lunar moon hangs up,
Will we celebrate like we used to?
Ain't nobody gonna love me the way you do
Ain't nobody gonna love me the way you do
And I feel invincible when you are here
And I feel invincible when you are near
Nobody gonna love me the way you do
And I am invincible
And I am unbreakable
And we are infinite
And we are eternal
Nobody gonna love me, the way you do

Worry
06:46

The clothes don't fit
And we're sliding underneath
There's a sign out the front says,
'Do Not Disturb'
We ain't ready for the daylight
Weather the storm
And the pilferage and the suffering
And the stalemate of this warning wind
Believe me when I say I've down there before
So hold on now darling, oh don't you give up!
We've come too far to lay it all down
So hold your head high up
You've got enough
Trouble, they come just for a day
Oh worry, you don't worry me
Who says we gotta give in
To this demeanour?
Who says what gives anyway?
When they come with their standards and measures
Darling, you don't need to feed the ghosts tonight!
So hold on now darling, oh don't you give up!
We've come too far to lay it all down
So hold your head high up
You've got enough
Trouble, they come just for a day
Oh worry, you don't worry me
All this time we've been living under this great big lie
Oh they sell me what they think I need
Hang on, that ain't company to keep
That ain't love
That ain't love
That ain't love
Worry, worry, you don't worry me
Worry, worry, you don't worry me
Worry, worry, you don't worry me
Worry, you don't worry me
Worry, you don't worry me
Worry, you don't worry me
Worry, you don't worry me
So hold on now darling, oh don't you give up!
We've come too far to lay it all down!
So hold your head high up!
You've got enough!
Trouble, they come just for a day!
Oh worry, you don't worry me
Oh no worry, worry, worry, you don't worry me!
Worry, worry, you don't worry me!
Woah you don't worry me!
Oh woah oh oh you don't worry me!
Oh worry, worry, you don't worry me!
Oh worry, worry, you don't worry me!
