Fever

Set me up, don’t set me down
When you’re coming ‘round
Heartbreak wont stay awake
It’s the ground you shake
It’s a fact you attack
When you see that you want it back
You can turn on a dime
for the sake of a perfect crime
And we’ve got
So much self control
And we’ve got
Nowhere left to go
It’s like a fever
Take a break, play the game
When you feel that it’s all the same
Turn it off, run away
save it for another day
You can see the fever bleeds
When you find everything need
So take a hit throw your wit
dive into another fighting pit
And we’ve got
So much self control
And we’ve got
Nowhere left to go
It’s like a fever
Because you’re never gonna win
Talking big until the end
It’s like a fever… It’s like a fever…

Little Boxes
03:42
|

|
Don’t tell, don’t speak
No pause, no repeat
Stay away from reflections
Keep away from detection
From every side there is so much pressure
Try so hard just to keep it all together
Little boxes, hold so much
Little boxes, they hold too much
Can’t deny, can’t convey
what you feel in anyway
Seal it tight, with a kiss
Keep the things they’ll never miss
From every side there is so much pressure
Try so hard just to keep it all together
Little boxes, hold so much
Little boxes, they hold too much
From every side there is so much pressure
Try so hard just to keep it all together
Walls speak, so much to say
The righteous fled and run away
Tiny corners, such a haven
Sins and sinners have been forsaken
From every side there is so much pressure
Try so hard just to keep it all together
Little boxes, hold so much
Little boxes, they hold so much

Stand Up
03:29
|

|
It’s not running away
It’s not here so why would you stay
It’s not the waiting to choose
Head down but you know that you loose
But this time around
Take it on with your head in the ground
'Cuz this will happen again
Turn it down and you know that you win
Always care free,
Always obey
Now you finally agree,
that this isn’t going your way
Just stand up,
And stay awake
Another chance,
Before you break
Don’t hesitate
Don’t fall into another debate
Don’t ask yourself why
Lean back and just go for the ride
And this time around
Take it on with your feet on the ground
It can’t happen again
Turn it on and you know that you’ll win
Always care free,
always obey
Now you finally agree,
That this isn’t going your way
Just stand up,
And stay awake
Another chance,
Before you break

All The Rage
03:53
|

This is a missile
This a burning thread
This is the new song in my head
Presupposition
Can’t stop it to explain
About the concept in my brain
Don’t let me down…
Don’t let me down…
Don’t turn me down
It’s all the rage…...
This is a warning
This is a burning flare
This is the one chance to prepare
Redefinition
Can’t stop it to explain
About the concept in my brain
Don’t let me down…
Don’t let me down…
Don’t turn me down
It’s all the rage…..

Masquerade
04:06
|

And I can see that you know what you’re doing
But the facts… won’t stack… this time
It’s the way that you go off the deep end
But your attack… is coming back… this time
You’re always under cover,
you’re always just pretending.
You’re always under cover,
you’re just a never ending
Masquerade
Masquerade
And I can see that you know what you’re doing
But the latch… won’t catch…. this time
It’s the way that you’re calling for sympathy
But the tears… don’t appear… this time
You’re always under cover,
you’re always just pretending.
You’re always under cover,
you’re just a never ending
Masquerade
Masquerade

Borderline
04:33
|

|
So let’s get down to the feeling
It’s not the way that I’m dreaming
Got me hanging on a wire
And I know it’s getting higher
You’re looking for a light
At the end of the night
You’re wishing for a martyr
'Cuz you’re just a fire starter
Give me a heart, don’t me a sign
I don’t wanna be left on the borderline
Oh come on, come on
Now I’m swimming for the shore
I can hear you wanting more
But now the water’s getting deep
And I’m heading for retreat
Give me a heart, don’t me a sign
I don’t wanna be left on the borderline
Oh come on, come on
So let’s get down to the feeling
It’s not the way that I’m dreaming
Got me hanging on a wire
Now I’m know it’s getting higher
Give me a heart, don’t give me a star
Don’t give me a ride 'cuz I don’t wanna go far
Oh come on, come on

Release It
03:23
|
|||
|
Sometimes you feel there’s too much showing
Just can’t deal with the pressure growing
It’s like a gold mine without knowing
Every day gets more controlling
So break your rules, don’t back away
The sea of fools, would tell me
Hold on, till we say
Go on son, release it…. release it
Every case has a different meaning
The open space is what you’re needing
Sometimes the best way to start the leaving
Is to cut back on what you’re keeping
So break your rules, don’t back away
The sea of fools, would tell me
Hold on, till we say
Go on son, release it…. release it
Sometimes you feel there’s too much showing
Just can’t deal with the pressure growing
It’s like a gold mine without knowing
And all you’re left with is what you’re holding
So break your rules, don’t back away
The sea of fools, would tell me
Hold on, till we say
Go on son, release it…. release it

Fine Line
03:11
|
|||
|
Breathe and take a beat
Pause, but don’t repeat
Move without delay
Don’t be led astray
You walk the fine line, now get away
Walk the fine line back to yesterday
You walk the fine line, now get away
Walk the fine line every time you…
Trust that little voice
Give yourself a choice
Hold your doubt within
Shut that door again
You walk the fine line, now get away
Walk the fine line back to yesterday
You walk the fine line, now get away
Walk the fine line every time you…
Change your point of view
You’ll find it’s long been overdue
Change your point of view
You’ll find it’s what you always knew
Stay the course you need
Try a new technique
Take the curtain down
Close the shield around
You walk the fine line, now get away
Walk the fine line back to yesterday
You walk the fine line, now get away
Walk the fine line every time you…

Under My Skin
03:01
|
|||
|
Try letting go some part of me
Try letting go the day to day
Try letting go of what they pay
and take a chance on the diamond days
And now it’s calling
It’s getting under my skin
Oh no…
Take back the time, led astray
Take back the means that you gave away
Take back the words, that you say
and set adrift like a cast away
And now it’s calling
It’s getting under my skin
Oh no…
Break away
And now it’s calling
It’s getting under my skin
Oh no…
