Making a Fire Lyrics

[Refrain]

Na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na

Na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na

Na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na

Na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na

[Verse 1]

I've been waitin’, elevatin'

Hangin' on the line

Hate to say it, your new favorite’s

Goin' out of style

Threw away those broken heroes

They're just wood and wires

Hallelujah, spread the news, but

Don't believe the hype

Alright

[Pre-Chorus]

Are you afraid of the dark?

I know a place we can start

[Chorus]

But if this is the last time

Make up your mind

I've waited a lifetime to live

It's time to ignite, I'm makin' a fire

[Refrain]

Na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na

Na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na

[Verse 2]

I was beggin’ when I said I’d

Never tell a lie

Luck be damned, I took a stand and

Finally hit my stride

Bye-bye

[Pre-Chorus]

Are you afraid of the dark?

I know a place we can start

[Chorus]

But if this is the last time

Make up your mind

I've waited a lifetime to live

It’s time to ignite, I'm makin' a fire

[Refrain]

Na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na

Na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na

[Pre-Chorus]

Are you afraid of the dark?

I know a place we can start

Yeah

[Refrain]

Na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na

Na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na

Na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na

Na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na

[Chorus]

So if this is the last time

Make up your mind

I've waited a lifetime to live

It’s down to the wire

This is the last time

I've made up my mind

I've waited a lifetime to live

It's time to ignite, I'm makin' a fire

[Refrain]

Na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na

Na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na

(Na-na-na-na) Na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na

Na-na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na

Shame Shame Lyrics

[Verse 1]

If you want to

I'll make you feel something real just to bother you

Now I got you

Under my thumb like a drug, I will smother you

[Pre-Chorus]

I'll be the one, be the moon, be the sun

Be the rain in your song, go and put that record on

If you want to

I'll be the one, be the tongue that will swallow you

[Refrain]

Shame, shame

[Chorus]

Another splinter under the skin

Another season of loneliness

I found a reason and buried it

Beneath a mountain of emptiness

[Post-Chorus]

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Oh, oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh, oh

[Refrain]

Shame, shame

[Verse 2]

Who, what, where, when (Shame, shame)

Just move along, nothing wrong 'til we meet again (Shame, shame)

I'll be the end (Shame, shame)

I'll be the war at your door, come and let me in (Shame, shame)

[Pre-Chorus]

I'll be the one, be the moon, be the sun (Shame, shame)

Be the rain in your song, go put that record on (Shame, shame)

If you want to (Shame, shame)

I'll be the one, be the tongue that will swallow you (Shame, shame)

[Chorus]

Another splinter under the skin

Another season of loneliness

I found a reason and buried it

Beneath a mountain of emptiness

[Post-Chorus]

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Oh, oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh, oh

[Refrain]

Shame, shame

[Chorus]

Another splinter under the skin

Another season of loneliness

I found a reason and buried it

Beneath a mountain of emptiness

[Post-Chorus]

Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Oh, oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh, oh

[Refrain]

Shame, shame

Cloudspotter Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Big baby, run and hide

Hope it don't sting when the feeling dies

I got sweet dreams tucked in tight

Silver screen sister in a suit and tie

Two lovers, sick and tired

Standin' in the mirror, it's my good side

Match made in heaven, show me the light

Burn me right down like a house on fire

Cloudspotter (cloudspotter)

Burn me right down like a house on fire

Cloudspotter, cloudspotter

[Pre-Chorus 1]

Callin' on someone else's dime

Put your two cents where the sun don't shine

[Chorus]

Swing, swing, guillotine queen

Swingin' from the left to the right

Bang! Bang! Bang! You're so mean

Don't we look good? Don't we look good?

Swing, swing, guillotine queen

Cut me back down to size

Bang! Bang! Bang! Know what I mean?

Don't we look good? Don't we look good?

Cloudspotter

[Verse 2]

Head ringin' in the dead of night

Just a pair of lovesick parasites

Put me on hold, hold on tight

Everything's wrong when you've got no right

Cloudspotter (cloudspotter)

Everything's wrong when you've got no right

Cloudspotter, cloudspotter

[Pre-Chorus 2]

I need to know, but I don't ask why

Refuse me while I kiss the sky

[Chorus]

Swing, swing, guillotine queen

Swingin' from the left to the right

Bang! Bang! Bang! You're so mean

Don't we look good? Don't we look good?

Swing, swing, guillotine queen

Cut me back down to size

Bang! Bang! Bang! Know what I mean?

Don't we look good? Don't we look good?

Cloudspotter

Cloudspotter!

[Pre-Chorus 2]

I need to know, but I don't ask why

Refuse me while I kiss the sky!

[Chorus]

Swing, swing, guillotine queen

Swingin' from the left to the right

Bang! Bang! Bang! You're so mean

Don't we look good? Don't we look good?

Swing, swing, guillotine queen

Cut me back down to size

Bang! Bang! Bang! Know what I mean?

Don't we look good? Don't we look good?

Cloudspotter

Cloudspotter!

Waiting on a War Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I've been waitin' on a war since I was young

Since I was a little boy with a toy gun

Never really wanted to be number one

Just wanted to love everyone

[Pre-Chorus]

Is there more to this than that?

Is there more to this, more to this

More to this than

[Chorus]

Just waitin' on a war?

[Verse 2]

Every day waitin' for the sky to fall

Big crash on a world that's so small

Just a boy with nowhere left to go

Fell in love with a voice on the radio

[Pre-Chorus]

Is there more to this than that?

Is there more to this, more to this

More to this than

[Chorus]

Just waitin' on a war?

[Post-Chorus]

Just waitin' on a war for this and that

There's got to be more to this than that

Just waitin' on a war for this and that

There's got to be more to this than that

[Interlude]

(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

[Verse 3]

I've been waitin' on a war since I was young

Since I was a little boy with a toy gun

[Pre-Chorus]

Is there more to this, more to this

More to this than

[Chorus]

Just waitin' on a war?

[Post-Chorus]

Just waitin' on a war for this and that

There's got to be more to this than that

Just waitin' on a war for this and that

There's got to be more to this than that

Just waitin' on a war for this and that

There's got to be more to this than that

Just waitin' on a war for this and that

There's got to be more to this than that

[Outro]

'Cause I need more

Yeah, I need more

Just waitin' on a war

Yeah, I need more (For this and that)

(There's got to be more to this than that)

(Just waitin' on a war) Yeah, I need more (For this and that)

(There's got to be more to this than that)

Just waitin' on a war

Medicine at Midnight Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Say a prayer and close the light, thumb upon the scale

The pillow is cold, and that ship has sailed

Time has run the river dry, dry as a twisted trail

Into the bone, I'm into it

[Pre-Chorus]

Ever get the feelin' nothin' else will do?

I could hear you singin', pink turned to blue

Was it your graffiti? Did you write your name?

On the dirty ceilin', I can't explain

[Chorus]

I need medicine at midnight, but it ain't no cure

Medicine at midnight callin', but it ain't no cure

I may be sick, but you know

I'm yours

[Verse 2]

I remember dancin' hard under the dead moon

Howlin' with you, howlin'!

[Pre-Chorus]

Ever get the feelin' nothin' else will do?

I could hear you singin', I can't explain

[Chorus]

I need medicine at midnight, but it ain't no cure

Medicine at midnight, howlin', but it ain't no cure

I may be sick, but you know

I'm yours

[Bridge]

Rain on the dance floor, back against the ropes

[Chorus]

Medicine at midnight, but it ain't no cure

Medicine at midnight, howlin', but it ain't no cure

I may be sick, but you know

I'm yours

[Outro]

Rain on the dance floor, back against the ropes

No Son of Mine Lyrics

[Verse 1]

No son of mine will ever do

The work of villains, the will of fools

If you believe it, it must be true

No son of mine, no son of mine

[Verse 2]

No son of mine will ever need

To beg forgiveness, no wicked deed

Head full of evil, heart full of greed

No son of mine, no son of mine

[Pre-Chorus]

Here we are, the livin' dead

Hand to God with one foot in the grave

Age of lost innocence

Don’t forget what your good book says

[Chorus]

No son of mine, no son of mine

[Verse 3]

No son of mine will ever be

Under the power vested in thee

March into slaughter, down on his knees

No son of mine, no son of mine

[Pre-Chorus]

Here we are, the livin' dead

Hand to God with one foot in the grave

Age of lost innocence

Don't forget what your good book says

[Chorus]

No son of mine, no son of mine

No son of mine, no son of mine, woah

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]

No son of mine will ever say

Words of illusion, oh, this I pray

Heretofore takin’ my name in vain

No son of mine, no son of mine

[Pre-Chorus]

Here we are, the livin' dead

Hand to God with one foot in the grave

Age of lost innocence

Don't forget what your good book says

[Chorus]

No son of mine, no son of mine

No son of mine, no son of mine, woah

Holding Poison Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I got this thing and I've been takin' it out on you

Takin' it out on you

Poor you

Like a machine that's always breakin' down on you

Breaking down on you

So true

[Pre-Chorus]

I spin around, around, around

Spin around, around, around

Spin around, around (And then)

Out of the blue

[Chorus]

Holdin' the poison down

Something to drown you out

I'm holdin' the poison down

You know I want what I want, I get what I get

You know what I mean? I meant what I said

Holdin' the poison down

[Verse 2]

I get the feelin' there ain't nothing that I can do

Nothing'll get me through

So blue

Sometimes I dream, I can dream, I can dream

And then I bleed, and I bleed, and I bleed

I get the feeling there ain't nothing that I can do

[Pre-Chorus]

I spin around, around, around

Spin around, around, around

Spin around, around (And then)

Out of the blue

[Chorus]

Holdin' the poison down

Something to drown you out

I'm holdin' thе poison down

You know I want what I want, I get what I get

You know what I mean? I mеant what I said

Holdin' the poison down

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]

Stand around, around, around

Stand around, around (And then)

Out of the blue

[Chorus]

Holdin' the poison down

Something to drown you out

I'm holdin' the poison down

You know I want what I want, I get what I get

You know what I mean? I meant what I said

Holdin' the poison down

Chasing Birds Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Chasing birds to get high

My head is in the clouds

Chasing birds to get by

I'm never comin' down

My heart is six feet underground

[Chorus]

The road to Hell is paved with good intentions

Dark inventions of mine

The road to Hell is paved with broken parts

Bleeding hearts like mine

[Verse 2]

Chasing birds through the sky

And deep into the black

Chasing birds, say goodbye

I'm never comin' back

Here comes another heart attack

[Chorus]

The road to Hell is paved with good intentions

Dark inventions of mine

The road to Hell is paved with broken parts

Bleeding hearts like mine

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 3]

Chasing birds to get high

I'm never comin' down

My heart is six feet underground

[Chorus]

The road to Hell is paved with good intentions

Dark inventions of mine

The road to Hell is paved with broken parts

Bleeding hearts like mine

[Outro]

Chasing birds

Love Dies Young Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Love dies young, and there's no resuscitation

Once it's done, no regeneration

It's a losin' game that'll make you play

Your hand against your chest, love dies young

[Verse 2]

Love dies young, and there's no reanimation

Once it's gone, no regeneration

It's a bitter kiss that'll make you wish

You never had a taste

[Chorus]

Love dies young, oh-oh

Love dies young, oh-woah

Please don't take my breath, don't take my breath away

Love dies young

[Verse 3]

Love's so dumb, so what's the fascination?

Leaves you numb with a nasty reputation

When you lose your head and lights go out

You'll never be the same

[Chorus]

Love dies young, oh-oh

Love dies young, oh-woah

Please don't take my breath, don't take my breath away

Love dies young

[Bridge]

Never-ending cemeteries, funeral parades

All your dreams are buried in their place

[Chorus]

Love dies young, oh-oh

Please don't take my breath, don't take my breath away

Love dies young

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]

Love dies young, oh-oh

Love dies young, oh-woah

Please don't take my breath, don't take my breath away

Love dies young

[Outro]

Love dies young

Love dies young, love dies young

Love dies young
