Anchor Down
03:05

Hang your head your spirit is spent
how many no's before you get a yes
Another night of what little sleep you'll get
Up and go has got up and went
The harder you run the further it seems to get
Why are you here? Drowning in so much rent
Because it's everything you've dreamed
One day here is like a year you've never seen
So pick up yourself and show me just what you mean
Tell me you want it honey you need it baby
And everything will fall into place
Make no mistake you've got what it takes to make this city yours or it make it your grave
Another day scratch and clawing
Just for one little inch
You'll only get out of this city
What you put in
You gotta anchor down anchor down
You gotta anchor down anchor down
Let's all take another shot baby
Just to clear our heads
Another night that never ends
Sleep when we're dead
Probably come much sooner here
We'll take what we can get
You gotta anchor down anchor down
You gotta anchor down anchor down
Let's all take another shot baby
Just to clear our heads
You gotta anchor down anchor down
You gotta anchor down anchor down
Let's all take another shot baby
Just to clear our heads
Another day scratch and clawing
Just for one little inch
You'll only get out of this city
What you put in
You gotta anchor down anchor down
You gotta anchor down anchor down

Shard of Glass

I've seen inside your head
You think you've got it oh so right
Like the time we met
Downtown just around midnight
I lived the life you led
Then again was it even a life
Just played pretend
Tragedy tried to get just right
Words are loaded like guns
You shoot them so well
Songs by chosen ones
They're always misspelled
Behind a hero's mask you wanna save me
Baby my hearts not made of glass
Oh you preach so loud
I'll get better
But you're not listening
I've been this way from the start
Oh you preach so loud
You have the answers
I'm not the one falling apart
I've seen you play your hand
This ain't game no it's my life
While you hedge your bets
Thinking that you're gonna get it this time
Our story has an end
Yours doesn't end the same as mine
Let's not play pretend
We're downtown just around midnight
Words are loaded like guns
You shoot them so well
Songs by chosen ones
They're always misspelled
Behind a jesters mask
The truth won't break me
Baby my hearts not made of glass
Oh you preach so loud
You know better
But you're not listening
I've been stronger from the start
Oh you preach so loud
You have the answers
I'm not the one falling apart
Words are loaded like guns
You shoot them so well
Songs by chosen ones
They're always misspelled
Behind a villains mask
You try to blame me
Baby my hearts not made of glass
Oh you preach so loud
You've had better
But you're not listening
Didn't need you from the start
Oh you preach so loud
You have the answers
I'm not the one falling apart

This I Owe You
03:52
|
|||
You came to me like a song
With words that had been in my heart all along
This I owe you
Your voice a past melody
I found myself singing when I felt lonely
This I owe you
All those soothing words you said
Calmed my burning heart kept me from seeing red
This I owe you
Your love was the one reason
I learned to let go I was lesser to get even
This I owe you
You carried the weight of the world
Beared all the burdens of this girl
No one can describe how much I miss you
To this day I visit you still
The flowers may wilt but my heart never will
This I owe you
I know it's just a piece of stone
But what it really means is I've never been alone
This I owe you
Think back to that from which I came
On the day I met you everything changed
This I owe you
I know life is what you make it
Give me your best shot I know I can take it
This I owe you
You carried the weight of the world
Beared all the burdens of this girl
I swear that in the music I still hear you
We live in a world that's trying to divide us
I look inside for your words of guidance
They lift me up above all that is wrong
Your love was my one and only
You saved this girl I had to tell our story
This I owe you
I know how to be strong
As long as I'm here your love will carry on
This I owe you

Love/Hate Baby
04:09
|
|||
Here I am again just downplaying the facts
Only call me late at night when there's no one else left to ask
I'm the one who comes so why don't we just take a chance?
No matter how hard I try you just laugh laugh laugh
Don't laugh laugh laugh
Love hate baby you've had enough
I wanna quit this ride
Keep taking you back no matter how hard I try
Love hate baby you've had enough
Won't give you anymore thrills
No matter what I say you know I will
Know I will
For all of those times you said no when I asked
There are things once you do there's just no taking them back
So good at playing the part acting like you give a lot
But every time you get close you just stop stop stop
Don't stop stop stop
Love hate baby you've had enough
I wanna quit this ride
Done taking you back I'm gonna do right and reclaim my pride
Love hate baby you've had enough
Won't give you anymore thrills
You can try all you want but you're done breaking my will
Won't break my will
And now you ache to hear my voice
No more baby I'm sorry
And how I'm your one and only choice
No more baby I'm sorry
Still trying to play on my old vice
No more baby I'm sorry
Now you'll find you're really not such a prize
No more baby
No more sorry
Done

Red Light
04:09
|

What's your name where ya from baby I got your next one
But you think that a drink means I owe you attention
You're so fine you'll be mine as you try out your best lines
Always the same game's been played so stopping wasting my time
You're giving it all you've got
I wish you'd fucking stop
Asking over and over again
I know it's just pretend
In dim lit bar light
Look with your big bad wolf eyes
Thinking that you're seeing red
And drinks will get you in my bed
But when it reaches 4am you're going home without a bite
See what's in store I'll show you more baby out on the dance floor
Bump and grind a good time think that's all I'm good for
Oh I would if I could babe I'll show you a great night
You've got no chance for this dance when you can't say my name right
Why don't you read the room
Don't want to talk to you
Rolling my eyes again
Not playing hard to get
Big bad in this town
Ain't gonna be blowing my house down
I can see you're thinking three I've got a concrete chastity
For you and your friend's fantasy hand and hand tonight
Girl don't gotta be so mean
Just play nice, only trying to be friendly
Nothing wrong with acting this way
Come to a bar this aggressiveness is ok
Oh no why not you don't get it
Keep treating us this way you'll regret it
Watch you go on down the line
At the end of the night striking out one at a time
You smile know that I can
See what big teeth you have
Wish you'd get it through your head
Tricks wont get you in my bed because I'm wearing red tonight
Don't mean I'm your red light

Weight in Gold
03:51
|

Look and do as we're told
Gotta sing pretty be beautiful
Only worth our weight in gold
It's the same old story
I guess on with the show
Smile it's all in jest
Working desires in a pretty dress
Give it all till there's nothing left
It's the same old story
I guess on with the show
It's the same old story
It's gold and dirty
Don't get left
Let's do it right
Give em all a reason to get on up come out tonight
Stroke em in the ego give em what they need
Pullin' no punches they're here to be pleased
I could be the love haunting your dreams
Can't resist this siren when I sing
You will always want me
You can never have me
You just want to weight me out
Forget about who you are
They will make you the next shooting star
Painting you gold to cover your scars
It's the same old story
I guess on with the show
Grab on with all of your might
Just to see your name lit up in lights
Wanting the rich and famous life
It's the same old story
I guess on with the show
It's the same old story
It's gold and dirty
Let's get up
From what's got us down
Time has come to stand together turn this ship around
Stepping on their egos to hell with what they need
Saying what I want doing what I please
I am not yours another pretty face
Not buying your gold not carrying your weight
You will always want me
You can never have me
You just want to weigh me out
Let's get up
From what's got us down
Time has come to stand together turn this ship around
Stepping on their egos to hell with what they need
Saying what I want doing what I please
I am not yours another pretty face
Not buying your gold not carrying your weight
You will always want me
You can never have me
You will always want me
You can never have me
You will always want me
You can never have me
You just want to weigh me out

Ring Your Bell
04:44
|
|||
Hands to your mouth
Never let those words come out
Don't speak your mind
You'll end up in the back of the line
Hush hush
Beauty wins every time
Hush hush
Smile it will be just fine
Here's the lesson
Pretty girls get married first
Don't speak out of turn
Whatever they are asking all you ever have to say is
Bop ba badda ba da da da
Oh you're such a proper lady
Stir your tea with a silver spoon
Got them waiting hand and foot
Just to do what you want them to do
The world was made just for you
Ring your bell
Best friends that's a fact
Cause we only talk behind our backs
If you think that you know me
I guess it only goes to show
Hush hush
Beauty wins every time
Hush hush
Smile it will be just fine
Give us attention
Not being rich must the worst
Tell us we're pretty
As long as we have got these looks all we have to say is
Bop ba badda ba da da da
Oh you're such a proper lady
Stir your tea with a silver spoon
Got them waiting hand and foot
Just to do what you want them to do
The world was made just for you
Ring your bell
Oh your such a selfish baby
You've got nothing better to do
Than to be so helpless on your own
You think money makes you better is true
I feel sorry for you
No one cares what you do
With your damn bell

Danger's What You Need
03:38
|
|||
See yourself living like a shadow in consternation
Afraid you'll go and bite off a little more than you ever bargained for
Taking everything that comes your way in moderation
When you want to be breaking on out the door
Let's put the pedal to the floor
Baby we can find it
Danger's what you need
Baby let's just try it
Take a chance with me
See yourself stepping from the shadow in anticipation
Finally feeling like yourself more than you ever did before
Taking everything thing that comes your way as a new sensation
When you're wanting just a little more
Let's put the pedal to the floor
Baby we can find it
Danger's what you need
Afraid that you might like it
Take a chance with me
See yourself stepping from the shadow in anticipation
Finally feeling like yourself more than you ever did before
Taking everything thing that comes your way as a new sensation
When you're wanting just a little more
Let's put the pedal to the floor
Baby we can find it
Danger's what you need
Baby let's just try it
Take a chance with me
Baby we can find it
Danger's what you need
Afraid that you might like it
Take a chance with me

Satisfaction
04:40
|

I wonder where has he been
When will I see him again
All this not knowing well it's starting to play tricks on my head
He's still messing with me
Never quite as he seems
If he really knew me well I always wear my heart on my sleeve
Stuck in his little game
Starting to feel ashamed
But I'd still love him if he gave me one little reason to stay
He's still putting me down
Filling me up with doubt
I'm dressing up and I'm going out on this town
I know sex is not the answer
But I'm feeling so alone and you're such a good dancer
This ain't no love you're satisfaction
Stop wasting my time baby take me home
You are exactly what I came here for
But I want more than just touching on the dance floor
This ain't no love you're satisfaction
Stop wasting my time baby take me home
All that I want right now is your touch baby
All that I need right now is your touch baby
Now he's calling again
I know it's just pretend
His ego's hurting cause he lost what he took for granted
But it ain't about me
He's hurting cause jealousy
Has taught that lover boy there's plenty other fish in the sea
Begging to get me back
And keep his ego in tact
If I let him he'll treat me bad again that's a fact
Now he's always around
But I won't let my guard down
I'm dressing up and I'm going out on this town
I know sex is not the answer
But I'm feeling so alone and you're such a good dancer
This ain't no love you're satisfaction
Stop wasting my time and baby take me home
You are exactly what I came here for
But I want more than just touching on the dance floor
This ain't no love you're satisfaction
Stop wasting my time and baby take me home
All that I want right now is your touch baby
All that I need right now is your touch baby

Hearts Beat Loud
05:08
|
|||
The fence was tall
We got scratches on our legs
On the other side
We snuck along without a trace
The sand was dark
Clouds hid the moon away
The waves were icy cold but we swam anyway
Our hearts beat loud
Waves crashed hard they carried us away
So far from the shore it felt like our great escape
Into the dark you and I were safe
From all the lights and noise a game the city liked to play
Liked to play
We shivered hard
Surprised we never sank
Heard some voices come
We grabbed our clothes and ran away
Back to the road laughing all the way
Kept finding sand in our hair for what seemed like days and days
Our hearts beat loud
Waves crashed hard they carried us away
So far from the shore it felt like our great escape
Into the dark you and I were safe
From all the lights and noise a game the city liked to play
Liked to play
When we talk
You sound so far away
We were young and in love
But life happend anyway
Years gone by
Feels like yesterday
No amount of time can wash the sand away
When our hearts beat loud
