Shine a Light Mercy Me Ive grown so tired Strung my despair across a Moonlight Mile Shooting stars erase an empty sky Lost my mind staring at the night This river twists with denial Deep and cold mean and vile A silent dose of whats gone wrong I never thought I would live too long (Sworn believer Dies of fever No good reason Cold black season) I take what I want I take what I can Never worry about paying it back I shine a light into the blackness Heaven knows whats in my mind better thoughts of much better times Static sounds, Lost friends and fires Some turned out to be great liars Bought some time at the magic store A Voodoo cross, and an evil eye Spanish moss around a totem poll Said a spell and let it go (Sworn believer Dies of fever No good reason Cold black season) I take what I want I take what I can Never worry about paying it back I shine a light into the blackness We shine a light into the blackness Come shine a light into the blackness

C'mon 01:51
C'mon Come on little Queeny Take a ride with me I got everything you could want And nothing you need Let’s go Miss Ramona Don’t you feel like driving fast Both your hands in my pockets Now there ain’t no turning back Crime It never gets old I got a big black heart of gold Hail Hail it’s only Rock & Roll Beautiful Delilah you gonna kill this night I love it when shes loaded she likes to leave on the lights Oh Carol Baby I refuse to let us die Meet you in back in Memphis I’m so lonely tonight You don’t have to choose It’s all right Some were born to lose It’s all right Do you care if I abuse This love tonight Even if we lose It’s all right Come on Maybellene Ring a bell with me School days are gone forever And so are most dreams.

Oblivion Highway Rolling down this oblivion Highway No time for goodbyes ‘cause life keeps passing by me. Say a prayer for the things ill do tomorrow Drop bombs like confetti to clear this life of sorrow. Gone, with the speed of sound Should I get this high? If I get any further I’d miss the sky It doesn’t feel like lying If I got any closer I’d touch the sun This Oblivion Highway is for everyone This Oblivion Highway is for everyone Rolling down this decimated highway Forgot what it cost to try and do things my way Unfazed by the haze that keeps the graveyards haunted Stole love from a gun that’s unfed and unwanted Gone, with the speed of sound Should I get this high? If I get any further I’d miss the sky It doesn’t feel like lying If I got any closer I’d touch the sun This Oblivion Highway is for everyone This Oblivion Highway is for everyone

Low Tide 03:30
Low Tide Red Lights Can get me through the night And I never feel better Than when sleep deprived White lies Are they ever wrong Searching for new ways To not belong Blacked out We all die of fright And it's really got me thinking Whos gonna turn off the lights Made a vow Tried not to break it The devils got me believing No body gets saved Low tide- Full moon above my head Green grass - Walked across till dead High time - I let these flowers die Grave yards - Keep me safe at night

Morningside Lane I don't like to think about it How you slipped away And now I feel so numb With defecting gray Yeah you burnt out baby Oh you burned out young You burned out so pretty like the setting sun You burned out faster than I could come I tried not believing Kept my eyes closed for days Its these thoughts that I'm keeping as I walk down Morningside Lane The sun keeps pouring down Revolver spins through my head I watch my shadow crawl Filling cracks that others left Yeah you burned out baby Oh you burned out young You burned out so pretty like the setting sun You burned out faster than I could come I tried not believing Kept my eyes closed for days Its these thoughts that I'm keeping as I walk down Morningside Lane I'm with the lonely now I'm in between And I live through songs I'm letting nobody in! Yeah you burned out Sallie Oh you burned out young You burned out so pretty like the setting sun You burned out faster than you could shoot your gun! I tried not believing Kept my eyes closed for days Its these thoughts that I'm keeping as I walk down Morningside Lane
