Avenue

♫ Avenue – Erised http://spoti.fi/1hp9XRW http://routenote.com/r/Erised/5051813710469

Avenue

All alone walking down the avenue,
how many times have I been here before?
In a circle spinning round and round,
will someone show me to their door?

(chorus) But no, blue avenue is my home,
oh yeah, always set to roam,
and I know there should be somewhere I can go,
but no, blue avenue is my home.--

And the rain falls down upon the street,
squashing down I feel my drenched feet,
cold and wet is not a problem for me,
it's this loneliness that is killing me. (chorus)

Will someone show me to their door,
how many times have I been turned away before?...

My Final Hour

♫ My Final Hour – Erised http://spoti.fi/1e0t5zF http://routenote.com/r/Erised/5051813710469

My Final Hour

I'm looking for the truth
Is it out there? Born or bloomed
Most won't know, how it ends no
It's like going to the moon
It's like holding on to you

There won't be any angels
Or demons in the sun
I wish to think I finally see
In my final hour
We are all one

All the hatred, all the pain
We're all one, we're all the same
Most won't know, how it ends no
It's like going to the moon
It's like holding on to you

There won't be any angels
Or demons in the sun
I wish to think I finally see
In my final hour
We are all one

My Sweet Emily

♫ My Sweet Emily – Erised http://spoti.fi/1iYUU0g http://routenote.com/r/Erised/5051813234699

 My Sweet Emily

Travelin' down this dusty road,
never knowin' what you might find,
glad for this fork in the road,
you're always on my mind...

(Chorus): And we go walking,
Always hand + hand,
Spend the time talking,
you make me a better man...

My Sweet Emily, My Sweet Emily...

All you do in this life,
can't help it, makes me smile,
our joy cuts through the strife,
you make my life worth while... (Chorus)

Grateful our chance has begun,
all I want is to dance with you,
the best thing I've ever done,
was getting to meet you... (Chorus x2)

Mr. Nice Guy Acoustic

Mr. Nice Guy

I was thinking the other night,
When did my lying begin?
Always tried to do what's right,
there I go failing again.

(chorus) How much more smiling will this take?
I'm so fake, to the point I break,
Try to be nice for nice sake,
But I try... Mr. Nice Guy.

Should this be my cross to bare?
to have you as my friend,
it's hurts too much for me to care,
there I go failing again.

How much more smiling will this take?
I'm so fake, to the point I break,
Try to be nice for nice sake,
But I try... Mr. Nice Guy:)

There I go failing again...

Fallen Star

♫ Fallen Star – Erised http://spoti.fi/19peIqO http://routenote.com/r/Erised/5051813234699

Fallen Star

Standing up at the water’s edge,
Pushed me too close to that tempting ledge,
Now we’re strangers, it feels so rough,
Left with fears I wasn’t good enough…

Fallen > Star >

Damaged, feeling so dead inside,
The pain of being cast aside…

Fallen > Star >

(Chorus) Brothers Compromised,
Prophesy of lies, Drowning Eyes,
However, Bright you are, Fallen star…

I need to let go, to move on,
Thoughtlessly gone, you were depended on,
Offended, wronged, betrayal deep,
You’ve changed brother, the real you sleeps…

Fallen > Star >

I want you to suffer as I,
A love, closeness I was denied…

Fallen > Star > (Chorus)

The words you preached were never true,
Music, it seems still escapes you,
Rhythms you’ve lost in broken time,
Under the Water’s Icy Rhyme…

Fallen > Star >

Ego made you unable to see,
Angry there is no room for me…

Fallen > Star > (Chorus)

More

(Chorus)
More, more, more…

I need it, I want it, to taste it, to love it,
All through me, above me
Can I have some more? (Chorus)

You need it, you want it, to taste it, to love it,
All through you, apart of me
Do you want some more? (chorus)

Shelter

♫ Shelter – Erised http://spoti.fi/18wTUwF http://routenote.com/r/Erised/5051813234699
Shelter

Sunshine,
days of past when your love was mine,
Rain clouds,
seems our love has run out of time...

No shelter from this storm,
only left to mourn...

Heartache,
only wanted me when you were gone,
Shelter,
me from all the pain that once was us,
Oh Baby,
it drags me down to think of you,
Sometimes,
it's all that I could ever do...

No shelter from this storm,
only left to mourn...

Hush

♫ Hush – Erised http://spoti.fi/18tTTcF http://routenote.com/r/Erised/5051813234699

 Hush

Hush, little baby don't you cry,
Momma's gonna tell you a little lie,
seems the world isn't good for you,
nothing left for you to do,
all those plans you have in store,
feel's just like another closed door...

Hush, little baby don't you cry,
Momma's gonna tell you a little lie,
sometimes love doesn't work out right,
who's going to hold you tonight?

Hush, little baby don't you cry,
Momma's gonna tell you a little lie,
all those hopes and dreams for you,
couldn't live up to what you'd do,
you struggle, try the best you can,
you try to be a better man...

You kick, you scream,
trapped in this dream,
you'd think you'd learn,
hush as hope burns,
you cry, you bleed,
chasing each need,
but still you return,
hush as hope burns...

Every sweet word you say,

Every caring kiss,
Every sunny smile,
I will always be true.

There is nothing that I'd rather do,

My heart beating for you,
Every longing caress,
Every "I Love You,"
I'll be here waiting for you.

There is nothing that I'd rather do,

Rhythms + Rhymes

Hey, what am I doing here? Hey, Why can't I see, feel and hear?
Tell me what’s happened, Tell me what’s happened, Tell me what’s happened to me,
I went out to fight and became a casualty.

HEY, THIS WASN'T SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN TO ME.

oh, hey, please release me, don't want to live this way,
just another casualty to the rhythms and the rhymes.

IT WASN'T LOVE, IT WASN'T HOPE, IT WASN'T PEACE I WAS FIGHTING FOR,
It was just words.

Those SLOGANS, those PROPAGANDA FILMS,
FIGHT FOR YOUR COUNTRY, FIGHT FOR DEMOCRACY,
FIGHT FOR THIS AND FIGHT FOR THAT,
not knowing you'll be a casualty to the rhythms and the rhymes.

I WANT TO GO HOME, I WANT TO BE FREE,

I WANT TO LIVE AS OTHER MEN DO,

LET ME OUT OF THIS CELL, OUT OF THIS CAGE,

not trapped here in my mind-----------------------
not for these words, hear me? not for these words.

Just another (one more) casualty to the rhythms and the rhymes.

 Iron

You weren't the one to entrust,
I thought you would make it okay,
what you leave me is rust,
nothing but slow decay.

(chorus)Iron,
wash away,
iron,
you can never stay.--

You weren't there for me,
I thought love would last,
what I feel can never be,
nothing but the past.(chorus)

Time ticks away,
soon it will all run out,
I have things to say,
but there's nothing to talk about.(chorus)...

Nickel angel show your pastel face,
bundle me in your warm embrace,
soft and sweet melting the cast off sleet,
you strive to be alive again.

(chorus) Dance the dance of ages,
your lips form a smirk,
your bible's lost it's pages,
and in my back sticks a dirk.--

Alas, my love, you do me wrong,
life was to have clarity,
in the shadows we walk along,
joined hand and hand in conformity.(chorus)

Nickel angel do you still have any worth?
you weren't meant for this Earth...

Lead

"Don't fill me with lead," the poor man plead,
as the thief looked away,
"I've got a family you see,
and they all need me,
so don't take me away."

"But I must," the thief said,
"you have yet to ever bled,
and don't think I won't make you pay,
you have breathed your last breath,
your time is here I'm your death,
and today is your dying day."

The man began to squirm,
when the thief's eyes confirmed,
that it would be over sooner then said,
the gun was swift, as the thief's fatal gift,
knocked him dead.

"Goodbye walleye, you are but a fish I have fried,
let the waves just take you away,
whether there's a Heaven or Hell,
you'll be the first to tell,
I'll see you on All Soul's Day..."

 Muse

I can feel the passion,
As she flows through me,
Never know where we're going,
Only at the end I see.

In my mind she enters,
Never stood a chance,
Arms out wide, she welcomes,
Lost in a dance.

Innocent to her spell,
My heart, mine to lose,
There will be no return,
I'm taken by the muse...

Lost in your inner sea...

I can't help but dream of water,

Push

You push too hard my limit will break,
The first time you pushed was a big mistake.

The higher you climb the more you don't see,
That person under your boot is my trying to break free.

Never a giver all you did was take,
Do you know the hell I feel?
All I know is forsake.

Higher, higher, higher. Push me to break...

And yet I hold on for love's sake,
What a joke...
All you leave is heartache.

Higher, higher, higher. Push me to break,
Higher, higher, higher. On your cross I break...
