When the light is fading out, I will appear without a sound
And remind you, What you’ve gone through
To arrive is such in style
Like a dozen devils slinking through the night
You can call them wrong but they know they’re right
Yeah they know why they fight
Have you been waiting for the sun to come up?
Have you been waiting for the night to arrive?
You been taking all the time that you can find
And now you ain’t got nothing left
You gotta take it slow, but let ’em know
You gotta make a stand, while you can
You gotta keep your form, but be a man
Let ’em know where you stand
And where you come from, yeah
And if you start to sink
Sometimes you have to fight back from the brink
The answers you seek are on the bottom of the sea
The best you can do is break in casually
I don’t wanna be scared
I don’t wanna be scared
I don’t wanna be scared
Won’t live my life in fear
I gotta a lot of big plans
I gotta a lot of good friends
I don’t need you, if you don’t need me
I guess this is the way that it’s gotta be

Can't Get Enough

My baby says it's okay, as she rips my heart away
I know she ain't coming home,
But I still wait 'til the end of the day
My friends they call her a tease,
But they don't know what she does to me
Got me on the telephone, begging baby won't you come see me
Can't get enough, can’t get enough
Can't get enough, can’t get enough
They say I'm too old fashioned, they say it's not cool
Well maybe I'm too retro, or maybe I'm just old school
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh
My baby says she's had enough, as she steals my breath away
Now I'm on my hands and knees and I'm begging her to stay

Hello and welcome to the new society
Won't you come join me for some green chai-latte tea
But it takes, so much more to get to know me
And it takes, so much more for you to change how I see
Yeah pride, has got it's hold on me
Yeah pride, has got it's hold on me, me, me, me, me, me, me
You can quote the things I say
And make me look a certain way
But the truth is that I'm always gonna be the same
It's not that I refuse to change
I just like myself this way
You sit there, waiting for your epiphany
Meanwhile there's one already coming to me
I'm so special, oh can't you see?
Is there something about me, that makes it hard to agree?
Yeah pride, has got it's hold on me
Yeah pride, has got it's hold on me, me, me, me, me, me, me

I've been misused
Lost and confused
Been given bad news on a daily basis
I've been set loose
They've loosened the noose
I bought some new shoes, and now I'm ready to let loose
I need to be rejected, to put my ego in it's place
I need to be ignored, and leave a blank look on your face
The secret is out
If you had a doubt
Just hide it away for another day
I need to be rejected, to put my ego in it's place
I need to be ignored, and leave a blank look on your face
I just need the time to blow your mind
I can do it if I try, I can do it if I try
I've been misjudged
Hurt people I've loved
I had it all but then it was wasted

Devils

Devils in the middle pickin’ out roses
Devils made his mind up, he’s coming this way
Devils not concerned by public opinion
Doesn’t give a damn what you have to say
Jesus won’t you listen, I got some questions
Why’d you have to go and let ‘em kill in your name
Man is so preoccupied with righteous intentions
Doesn’t give a damn man, it’s all the same
Devils in the meadow pickin’ out roses
Devils all around me, leading the way
Devils got me pinned down whisperin’ confessions
I couldn’t help myself, or so the devils say

Bad Influence

Dressed in black, no looking back
Glamor and glitter disguises your bad
As you set the scene and have a treat
Who knew such evil could taste so sweet
Can't read the signs, can't understand why
Won't matter how hard I try
You tell such pretty lies
You penetrate me with a devils grin
And tease, did you come to play or did you come to win?
You throw out fancy words, and hand out dirty pills
You take all you can but never get your fill
Can't read the signs, can't understand why
Won't matter how hard you try
You tell such pretty lies

Hello darling, have you found your home yet?
I’m calling you out, you’re as clear as your self doubt
And you want to be my friend
I know it’s just a means to an end
So leave me with these loose ends
Cause frankly I don’t wanna understand
I’ll always be a restless man...
