Are You Out There? Can You Give Me A Little Room? Are You Out There?

Eyes Of Fire The Full Moon's Rising On You From A Distance Admired A Heartbreaker Through And Through Well Your Comin' On Strong Move Too Fast And I'll Be Gone A Heart That's Shattered And A Mind That's Vulnerable, Too Maybe One Day This Can Turn Into Something Maybe One Day This Can Turn Into Something Maybe One Day This Can Turn Into Something But Not Right Now Not Right Now Not Right Now Well, You Knew What You Were Doin' Had A Point To Be Proven, Didn't You? Wrapped Around Your Finger A Scent Made To Linger, So True Well, No More Second Chances No More Second Glances I See The Sight Of Your Flesh But This Bed Wasn't Made For You Maybe One Day This Can Turn Into Something Maybe One Day This Can Turn Into Something Maybe One Day This Can Turn Into Something But Not Right Now Not Right Now Not Right Now © 2015 Matt Stanley/Jarrett Boyetchko (SOCAN)

It's Gonna Take A Little Time But We're Gonna Work This Thing Out In The Midst Of This Depression Can't Afford A Minute Of Doubt I Can See The Place I Can See A Better Way Of Life When Times Are Tough There's So Much To Sacrifice But I Just Wanna Say The Only Thing I Need Is You And I Just Wanna Say That No Matter What We Lose Ain't Gonna Let You Go Ain't Gonna Let You Go Ain't Gonna Let You Go Because, Darlin', You Complete My Soul Another Day, Another Dime Another World, So Unkind Seems We Can't Catch A Break But It's Only A Matter Of Time Could You See The Moment If The World Opened Up For You You Just Gotta Be Patient Nothin' Else Left To Do But I Just Wanna Say That You'll Never Be Alone And I Just Wanna Say Though The Future Is So Unknown Ain't Gonna Let You Go Ain't Gonna Let You Go Ain't Gonna Let You Go Because, Darlin', You Complete My Soul © 2015 Matt Stanley (SOCAN)

I'd Be Lying If I Didn't Say I Feel A Sense Of Remorse But I'm Afraid This Has Run Its Course No Sense To Pretend When Is Somebody Gonna Call This Foolish Game? I Know You Gotta Feel The Same Every Empire Falls Nobody Has To Lose But It's Time To Be Moving On 'Cause The Good Ol' Days Are Gone And It's Time To Start Again Am I Wasting Your Time Like Your Wasting Mine? Am I Wasting Your Time Like Your Wasting Mine? I'll Call It Out I'll Call It Out If I Have To Somebody Gotta Make The First I Can't Wait Anymore It Only Seems Like Yesterday I Used To Feel That I Knew You But Now I Can See Right Through You Like Water Runnin' Down My Drain Am I Wasting Your Time Like Your Wasting Mine? Am I Wasting Your Time Like Your Wasting Mine? © 2015 Matt Stanley (SOCAN)

I Wish I Couldn't Tell A Lie Hold Faith In The Truth By My Side Make You Feel Assured In My Alibi It's Just The Way I Am The Way I Am I Am It's Just The Way I Am The Way I Am I Am Out On The Street We All Stand Alone Underneath The City Lights, We're All Vulnerable This Kinda Livin' Can Sure Take It's Toll But It's Just The Way I Am The Way I Am I Am It's Just The Way I Am The Way I Am I Am I Wanna Make You Feel Safe I Wanna Make You Feel Good In Every Way I Wanna Save You And Take Away The Pain Don't Wanna Make You Feel Ashamed I Just Got To Think Of Tears In Your Eyes To Make Me Run Home And Realize My Prize But Sometimes I Need To Know That I'm Still Alive It's Just The Way I Am The Way I Am I Am It's Just The Way I Am The Way I Am I Am I Wanna Make You Feel Safe I Wanna Make You Feel Good In Every Way I Wanna Save You And Take Away The Pain Don't Wanna Make You Feel Ashamed I Wish I Couldn't Tell A Lie Hold Faith In The Truth By My Side Make You Feel Assured In My Alibi It's Just The Way I Am The Way I Am I Am It's Just The Way I Am The Way I Am I Am © 2015 Matt Stanley (SOCAN)

What You Thinkin' 'Bout Right Now? I'm Lookin' At You But You're Nowhere To Be Found What You Thinkin' 'Bout Right Now? I'm Lookin' At You But You're Nowhere To Be Found I've Crossed The Line I've Lost My Mind I've Crossed The Line I've Lost Mind What You Waitin' For My Friend? Why Waste Your Time When You're So Close To The End? What You Waitin' For My Friend? Why Waste Your Time When You're So Close To The End? I've Crossed The Line I've Lost My Mind I've Crossed The Line I've Lost Mind What Will It Take For You To Let Go What Can I Do For You To Ease Your Heavy Load?

In Our Blood 04:39
It's In Our Blood You Can Fight It But It's No Use No Need To Take In All The Abuse I Stand Before You, A Man Accused It's In Our Blood But Is It Enough To Make You Stay? Don't Like To Ever See You This Way Stand Close To Me, I'm Not Afraid Well, Ain't That A Lie? We're Gonna Live By Our Own Rules Well, Ain't That A Lie? We're Gonna Live Like We Want To Well, Ain't That A Lie? You Say You're Ignoring Me But I'm Not Fooled Well, Ain't That A Lie? It's In Our Blood I'm Seein' It For The First Time Stumbled Upon It But All By Design There's No Way For You To Fall Behind It's In Our Blood All The Things That I Wouldn't Do All The Things That You Couldn't Prove We'll Find The Answers When We Want To Well, Ain't That A Lie? We're Gonna Live By Our Own Rules Well, Ain't That A Lie? We're Gonna Live Like We Want To Well, Ain't That A Lie? You Say You're Ignoring Me But I'm Not Fooled Well, Ain't That A Lie? © 2015 Matt Stanley (SOCAN)

The Underdog 04:32
It's Never Too Late To Get Your Mind Straight People Hiding All Over The World The Future's In Sight Don't Turn Me Off, It Ain't Right People Crying All Over The World You Know That I Adore You But I Resent You Sometimes The Phone's Tapped We're Being Watched There's Eyes All Behind Us The Information's All Over The World Hold On Tight Take My Hand I Give Love On Demand Desperation's All Over The World You Know That I Adore You But I Resent You Sometimes Let Me Paint You A Picture Of A World Full Of Excess While People Are Dying All Over The World You Know That I Adore You But I Resent You Sometimes © 2015 Matt Stanley (SOCAN)

There Is A Light On The Shore It's Beauty So Kind, Just Wants To Take Me Home Upon The Beach, Underneath The Stars Find The Constellations, What Will Be Ours? And Far Away You're Dreaming Through The Night And Far Away You're Dreaming Through The Night And Far Away You're Dreaming Through The Night And Far Away You're Dreaming Through The Night Underneath The Dirt Where Something Grows Bigger Than You And Me, I Suppose Follow The Line, Pull On The Rope To The Other Side, The Other Side Of Hope And Far Away You're Dreaming Through The Night And Far Away You're Dreaming Through The Night And Far Away You're Dreaming Through The Night And Far Away You're Dreaming Through The Night Undressing Here And Now While Everyone Stands Around Before The Fire's Eye Underneath The Fading Light Wouldn't Have It Any Other Way Deep In The Heart Of Me Comes Down To Basic Needs Not Every Heart Needs To Bleed And Far Away You're Dreaming Through The Night And Far Away You're Dreaming Through The Night And Far Away You're Dreaming Through The Night And Far Away You're Dreaming Through The Night © 2015 Matt Stanley (SOCAN)

Don't Forget Just What Brought You Here Sacrificed The Things Others Hold Dear Covered In The Dirt Of These Gypsy Roads Standing Your Ground As Your World Erodes Every Night You Will Bare Your Flesh Fire's Burnin' Deep Inside Your Chest Leave The Heart But Cut Out The Rest Gonna Put This Thing To The Test But Don't Hang Me Up Don't Hang Me Up Don't Hang Me Up To Dry You're On A Train With No Destination To Pass Another Bridge, To Pass Another Station Interrogated For Your Confesion But You Can't Kick This Shit, Can't Kick This Addiction But Don't Hang Me Up Don't Hang Me Up Don't Hang Me Up To Dry What Can I Do To Stop This Feeling? Taste The Guilt For The Life You're Stealing In This Game There Are No More Rules Always Was A Young Man, Always Was The Fool, Yeah But Don't Hang Me Up Don't Hang Me Up Don't Hang Me Up To Dry But Don't Hang Me Up Don't Hang Me Up Don't Hang Me Up To Dry © 2015 Matt Stanley (SOCAN)
