She's always asking him if he still loves her, and he doesn't get why. He begs her to believe that he's not leaving, but she doesn't get why. So he'll sing her a lullaby tonight.. "My girl is dynamite in a world full of firecracker girls, Oh they might light a spark but you, you blow up apart my world, You've got me hypnotized with blinding light, My girl is dynamite" She's always asking his advice, "Honey does this look nice?" and he doesn't get why. Cause he see's an angel where she see's her shadows, and she doesn't get why. So he'll sing her a lullaby tonight... "My girl is dynamite in a world full of firecracker girls, Oh they might light a spark but you, you blow up apart my world, You've got me hypnotized with blinding light, My girl is dynamite in a world full of firecracker girls"

Yellow 03:06
Yellow is the color of the brick road that I’m walking on it felt so strong but I think I lost my way. Faces in all the lonely places, searched high and low nothing to show Oh I think I lost my way. I’ve walked all over the world looking for another you. I’ve searched from city to shore Dreaming of someone to fill your shoes. There’s no place I could walk, run, fly, ride, jump, or roam. I find I’m clicking my heals dreaming of. No place, there’s no place quite like home. Finally, cause its all I wanted to see, I found OZ but it went wrong just like it always does. I was certain when I pulled back the curtain it’d be you but that’s not true, it could never be. I’ve walked all over the world looking for another you. I’ve searched from city to shore Dreaming of someone to fill your shoes. There’s no place I could walk, run, fly, ride, jump, or roam. I find I’m clicking my heals dreaming of. No place, there’s no place quite like home. I could never remember why I walked this way at all. So I’ll come back and stay forever. That yellow road brought me home.

“I’ve got Hell to pay, now won’t you come along? It only hurts for a minute” He slithered through his teeth, She smiled and took a bite. It tasted good for a minute. She calls her lover in says take a bit my dear... And this began it all... This is how they fall... “I’ve got Hell to pay, now won’t you come along? Its only hot for a minute” He whispered to the boy who smiles and lays her down, It feels good for a minute She cries out at night he’s no where to be found, And this continues on... This is how they fall.... There’s always apples to take, Its running through our veins To make us love what we hate We’ve got hell to pay

Stay God 03:56
This cycle keeps going round and round The same problem that put the snake on the ground I just keep on walking off this ledge You keep on saving me from death You stay God and I stay man You give love, though I give less And I have been the most and the least of these, But You’re the same to me You stay God, though I stay man For 22 years I’ve followed suit Another daughter of Eve forgot the truth This sin of mine keeps beating in my chest I know that I will fail and be like all the rest You stay God and I stay man You give love, though I give less And I have been the most and the least of these, But You’re the same to me You stay God, though I stay man.

Bullet Wound 03:22
Another Band-aid on my bullet wound today. I tried to talk to you but you just don’t get my pain. Falling deeper in this pit you named despair, I look around for help but its all of you that I followed there. I was closer than you thought when the gun went off. You didn’t mean to hit me but you did, Didn’t mean to break me but I am. You never thought you’d find me here but this is where I’ve been. I have passed the place where salt could fix my wounds. What you did’s been done and that won’t be healing soon. I feel heavy with you’re word on my back Oh I know this can’t be how you save the damned. You didn’t mean to hit me but you did, Didn’t mean to break me but I am. You never thought you’d find me here but this is where I’ve been.

For You 04:03
Oh what I would do to draw a smile from you tonight. The way that I’d move will make this bad place feel alright. I promise to dance until I see that look in your eye. Whether loving or laughing I swear that you’ll have what you need to night. You will be the one, I love till morning comes. I will hide tonight deep within your eyes. You will be the one.
