Go Back Down 03:37
Go Back Down Well there’s a damn good chance that we don’t know what we’re doing We might leave this world in a heap of smoke and ruin We could shake our ass all over the place We could set it on fire then head into space But there’s a damned good chance that there’s no turning back now! OOOO! We can go back down (that desolate road) We can go back down (to an age without soul) We can go back down (and never go home) We Can Go We Can Go We Can Go-Go-Go-Go-Go!

She Don’t Worry Can anybody help me, pick up these pieces I find? And if I rearrange them, then I’ve made up my mind Yeah I’m fine, I’m just blurry I fell for a storm of a girl then she blew me away So Beware if she’s Bored Better run for the door She is blind to her fury Unaware how wild and dark are the games she’ll play But She Don’t Mind, She Don’t worry Her thoughts are on another world a million miles away So Beware if she’s Bored Better run for the door She Don’t Mind, She Don’t Worry She’ll break you into pieces of her then throw them away She’s Unkind, in no hurry She’ll eats up all your time leave you broken and aged So Beware if she’s Bored Better run for the Door

7 Years 04:06
7 Years Three things can happen when you throw the ball Two ‘them are bad Someone’s been drinking all my alcohol Another Midwestern lad I got to make it through this stage of my life With all the pieces in place Feels like I’m dancing on the edge of a knife Shadow across my face So won’t you call my name when you’re feeling lonely, you know I’ll be right there at your door You know that you’re my one and only wanna make love to ya down on the floor I turned my back I everything that I knew Made my pilgrimage west I took me seven years to get back to you Put my soul to the test So won’t you call my name when you’re feeling lonely, you know I’ll be right there at your door You know that you’re my one and only wanna make love to ya down on the floor

Why Won’t You Listen? You just sit there watching the world go around Every time that you were needed you just sat back down Complacent, bored within the life that you live Always seem to get what you want but you never want to give Why won’t You Listen? (Why did you wait so long?) Keep telling you times are tough You just sit and stare at the Wall (like a broke dick dog) Haven’t You had Enough? Someone’s calling for action almost everyday But you find it so easy to look the other way Take all this corruption in the world with a grain of salt Just accept it as fact because it’s not your fault (CHORUS) What’s your excuse this time, when you’re nowhere in sight Maybe you seem to think that it’s not your fight Keep waiting for you to take some kind of stand Never been a better time for you to do all that You Can! (CHORUS)

You Found the Lord I remember when you were younger You took your daddy’s car for a ride Then you flipped it over on tight curve No one knows how you survived Back in those days when we were together Flat broke and looking for some fun You always did all of my cocaine Wouldn’t even leave me some How in the world, did you get to here? I thought you was goin’ to hell for sure But you found the lord! Now I see you got a Bible on your shelf Didn’t even know you could read And that silver cross that you wear about your neck Tells me you a soul in need (CHORUS) Are you tryin’ to be someone’s house wife? Making up for all those days of sin Is that all it takes to make you happy? Or will these walls keep closing in? You found the Lord!

This City Cries All Night We were born in the cracks in the wall Got our names off of bathroom stalls Can’t tell the difference between good and the bad Cursing the names of our mom and our dad Why don’t you come and see what we see! This city cries all night/ This city Moans and Bawls This city never sleeps/ This city eats all her young Our eyes glow with the buzz of the neon signs Walk through the alleys in crooked lines We Hate the Rich! We take all their dough We Hide away in the dark where the fuzz won’t go Why don’t you come and see what we see! This city cries all night/ This city made from steel and bone This city murder is her love/ This city is the underworld This city cries all night/ This city Squeals, and Moans and Bawls This city never-ever sleeps/ This city eats her all her young We can speak in the moan of the siren howls Spread like diseases through the urban bowels We make our way through another night Sharpen our teeth for another fight We walk through the garbage for miles and miles and Miles! This city cries all night/ This city bleeds smoke and oil This city murder is he love/ This city is the underworld
