I was broke
I was tired now I'm [bound]
My head is off the ground
For a long time I was so weary
Time will decide, but before
No one loves the nighttime at the door
[Hope she] finds things I've [deemed]
Something between the burning light and the dusty shade

Said I used to think the past was dead and gone
But I was wrong, so wrong
Whatever makes a [---] makes you strong, makes you strong
And by time I'm melting into many forms
From the day that I was born
And I know that there is no place to hide
Something between the burning shade and the faded light

And I was broken for a long time
But it's over now
Said I was broken for a long time
But it's over now
Said I was broken for a long time
But it's over now

Yes you, yeah you walk these lonely streets and people stare
People stare
Now some fool just got [near]
And I do pretend
Now I'm free from all the things that saved my friends
And I was [debted] to the end
Now I know I can change the mood
Something between the burning shade and the faded light

And I was broken for a long time
But it's over now, it's over now
Mm it's over now, now, now
It's over now, it's over now.
It's over now, now, now

Said I was broken for a long time
But it's over, but it's over
But it's over, but it's over
But it's over, but it's over
But it's over now, now, now, now
But it's over, love is over
But it's over now
But it's over, love is over
But it's over now, now, now
I was broken for a long time yeah
But it's over, but it's over now yeah
Over now, it's all over, it's over now.

I'll be your man
And I'll understand
And I'll do my best
To take good care of you

You'll be my queen
I'll be your king
And I'll be your lover too
Yeah yeah

Yes I will

Derry down green
Color of my dream
A dream that's daily coming true.
And ohhh when the day is through
I will come to you and tell you of
Your many charms

And girl you look at me
With eyes that see
And we'll melt into each others eyes

You'll be my queen
And I'll be your king
And I'll be your lover too

[Considering] the same old you
Head on fast, but it came on easy
Now I won't be gone for long, at least I'm going [home]
[I'm here for you], now you know what you lost
Now you are the thieves that you pardoned
Search for need, it'll never come
Now you have fallen
There's more for their own now
Sometimes I need a focus, I need a reason
So, so long

Stray dog
You're only
Joker no, joker no more

Oh to each their own
When you can call on your mind
It's a crime to hold back the tears sometime
And, wasted wasted, all before
You forget what you came here for
And, you need to see the signs
And, you need to stop wasting time
And, start to save that stolen
Story that you heard before.
And I waited for you, but you're long gone

Stray dog
You're only, only a stray,
Joker no, joker no more
Yeah, stray dog

T O . R O A M

Yeah, Yeah
Would I like this world, would I like this world
Would I like this world
Would i get out in the world
Pray I would [work]
Like I would watch

Ghost and the rain
Cold walk of freedom
I'm workin the hard way now
Yeah I'm workin the hard way
I'm working the hard way
Said I'm workin the hard way, and I'm workin the hard way
Oh, workin the hard way

I had power and glory
Thinking my day would surely come
When I would sing I'm smiling [of ages]
When I would know where I'm going to run
But I know where I will go
I will be gone somewhere, until
If you'd see, if you'd see it through my mind

You would know, you'd know it
You'd know when my eyes roam
Through the fog and hail, a scene amidst the snow
Know where, know where, know where
Know where, should know where
Shoulda known where, shoulda known where
Shoulda known better baby
Cause I like this world, and I like this world yeah

Some people were born to roam
Some people they roam this world alone
Some people were born to roam
Some people roam this world alone

Louder, louder

WRITTEN BY BOBBY LONG AND MARCUS FOSTER

She was standing there by the broken tree
Her hands were all twisted she was pointing at me
I was damned by the light coming out of her eyes
She spoke with a voice that disrupted the sky
She said walk on over into bitter shade,
I will wrap you in my arms and you'll know you've been saved'
Let me sign, let me sign, can't fight the devil so just let me sign.

I was out for a drink in a soho bar
The air was smoked out liked a cheap cigar
She rose out of her seat like a painted ghost
She was the woman that I wanted the most
As she reached for my arm I gave her my hand
I said 'Lay me down easy let me understand'
Let me sign, let sign, can't fight the devil so just let me sign.

As I walked through the door she was still in my head
As I entered the room she was laid there in bed
She reached out for me all twisted in black
I was on my way down, never coming back
Let me sign, let me sign, can't fight the devil so just let me sign.
Let me sign, let me sign, can't fight the devil so just let me sign.

I should never think
What's in your heart
What's in our home
So I won't

You'll learn to hate me
But still call me baby
Oh love
So call me by my name

And save your soul
Save your soul
Before you're to far gone
Before nothing can be done

I'll try to decide when
She'll lie in the end
I ain't got no fight in me
In this whole damn world
So hold off
She should hold off
It's the one thing that I've known

Once I put my coat on
I'm coming out in this all wrong
She's standing outside holding me
Saying "Oh please,
I'm in love,
I'm in love!"

Girl save your soul
Go on save your soul
Before it's to far gone
And before nothing can be done

Cause without me
You got it all
So hold on
Without me you got it all
So hold on
Without me you got it all
Without me you got it all
So hold on
Without me you got it all
So hold on
Without me you got it all
So hold on.
