::DRIVEN LYRICS::

SPINNING

Something's just not right,
Something I've been missing
Something… deep inside of me.

My head is spin, spin, spinning!
Dizzy thoughts
and sweet submissions
While the time is slip, slip, slipping away… away.

Something wasn't right
Someone I was missing
Someone… you could never be.

My head is spin, spin, spinning!
Dizzy thoughts
and sweet submissions
While the time is slip, slip, slipping away… away.

Round and round,
Down and down.

My head is spin, spin, spinning!
Dizzy thoughts
and sweet submissions
While the time is slip, slip, slipping away… away.

My head is spin, spin, spinning!
Dizzy thoughts
and sweet submissions
While the time is slip, slip, slipping away… away.

My head is spin, spin, spinning!
All the time is slip, slip, slipping away!

 

ALL TOMORROW’S
PROMISES


Heaven high, out of bounds.
Silver lines on every cloud.
You were so proud!


Heaven high, like a king.
It’s divine, it’s obscene.
If you wanted,
you could have it…

All tomorrow’s promises.
Holding on somewhere,
someday, somehow.

They build you up
to put you down.
You don’t mind
when you’re a clown
If you wanted,
you could show them

All tomorrow’s promises.
Holding on somewhere,
someday, somehow.

It’s easy.

We could leave it all behind.
Tomorrow’s promises.
Calling out somewhere,
someday, somehow.

 

CHANCE OF RAIN

It’s the stillness
Of her approach.
Not the gale winds,
I fear the most

A chance of rain
Still remains

It’s an illness
that she adores.
Not the storm’s wake,
It’s the calm before

A chance of rain
To wash away
All the stains
You left behind

It’s what I fear the most
A chance of rain
Still remains
You’ve tired in vain
To wash away
All the stains
We left behind

A chance of rain
A chance of rain

LITTLE BLACK KITTEN

Well I saw you in the alley
like you had a little
itch to scratch.
Yeah I saw you in the alley
like you had a little
itch to scratch.

‘Cause I’m a little black kitten
and I’m walking across your path.

I’ve got a really bad intention
and I really need
to get to bed.
I’ve got a really bad intention
and I really need
to get to bed.

‘Cause I’m a little black kitten
with a little black kiss of death.

Won’t you let me in?
Won’t you let me in?

I’ve got a little superstition
and I think it’s gonna’
bring you luck.
I’ve got a little superstition
and I think it’s gonna’
bring you luck.

‘Cause I’m a little black kitten
and this kitten will
tear you up.

 

SEE YOU IN HELL

You play it cool,
and you flash your ice.
You make it sweet,
to hide your spite.

Now you’re walking tall,
in your fancy threads,
with your glassy eyes
in your empty head.

And you’re talking trash,
like you do so well.
I’ll see you in hell.

You wanna’ play?
You might get beat.
And if you wanna’ win,
you better learn to cheat.

Now there’s no more girls
left for you to sell.
I’ll see you in hell.

Now your secret’s out,
but you still won’t tell.
I’ll see you in hell.

BURN ME DOWN

How will I know
which is the way?
All my schemes run astray.

Where did you go?
Angels won’t wait.
Every rose pales and fades,
and fades.

What do you do,
when I’m not around,
under the moon,
on the prowl.

Setting a mood,
breaking a vow,
fanning the flames,
that burn me down.

Burn me down.

I’ll be waiting
till the breaking dawn.
Don’t forsake me
with the setting sun.

How will I know if you are mine?
Every heart falls to fly,
to fly.

Fall to fly.
Fall to fly.

TELL ME

Near of far behind,
when you cheat,
when you lie,
I return in kind.
Love is cruel,
love is blind.

I will wait for you,
if you want me to.
Tell me the truth.

I was of two minds.
This one yours,
this one mine.
When you realize,
there’s no wrong,
there’s no right.

I will wait for you,
if you want me to.
Tell me.

Love is blind.

I will wait for you,
if you want me,
if you want me,
if you want me to.

 

INVINCIBLE

Suns burn green,
stir the earth up
underneath your feet.
What lies beneath?
What lies beneath?

Blood runs blue.
It’s a curse when what
you own owns you.
It leaves you cold.

You sold your soul
for its weight in gold.
You think you’re so
invincible.

Fear takes hold.
It’s not that you can’t,
it’s just you won’t,
and so you don’t.
Yeah, you just don’t.

Skies turn black.
Once the day is done
you can’t go back.
You lost control.

You sold your soul
for its weight in gold.
You think you’re so
invincible.

You sold your soul,
invincible.

 

JUST GO

If you wanna’ go,
just go,
don’t linger,
don’t say it ain’t so.
If you wanna’ go,
then honey just go.

If you wanna’ leave,
just leave,
don’t heave a sigh,
just say goodbye.
If you wanna’ go,
then honey just go.

I don’t have time to change your mind,
and I’m not begging for you to stay.
So just go away.

If you wanna’ go just go,
don’t plead with me,
just leave me be.
If you wanna’ go,
then honey just go.

I don’t have time to change your mind.
And I’m not begging for you to stay.
So just go away.

If you wanna’ go, just go.
Don’t plead with me,
just leave me be.
If you wanna’ go,
then honey just go.
it’s fine by me,
if you wanna’ go,
then honey just go.

 

IN TOO DEEP

Maybe I am just a fool.
Maybe I will never change.
When nothing turns out
like it should,
maybe I’m the one to blame.

She’s gonna’ lose her mind.
And there it goes again.
She’s walking on thin ice.
I’m falling in,
and it’s colder than cold can be.
She’s gonna’ lose her mind.
Somebody help me.

Maybe I’m too close to tell.
Maybe I was blind to see.
And everybody looks so
well, while they’re
looking down on me.

She’s gonna’ lose her mind.
And there it goes again.
Watching the waters rise.
I’m falling in,
and the cold doesn’t kill the sting.
She’s gonna’ lose her mind.
I’m in too deep.

She’s gonna’ lose her mind.
And there it goes again.
She’s walking on thin ice.
I’m falling in,
and it’s colder than cold can be.
She’s gonna’ lose her mind.
Somebody help me.

She’s gonna’ lose her mind.
Again and again
and over and over again.
Watching the waters rise.
I’m falling, I’m falling,
oh I’m falling in.


DISGUISE

Half a million mistakes
had sent me wandering,
without a friend or a foe
that I could rely on.

You can’t measure success
in nickels and dimes.
Always running ahead
while looking behind.

Growing out of your disguise.
Slowing down your suicide.

You can’t give me your love without your contempt.
What you said was your all
was such a feeble attempt.

Growing out of your disguise.
Slowing down your suicide.
