Track Lyrics

This Is Music Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I stand accused just like you
For being born without a silver spoon
Stood at the top of a hill
Over my town I was found
[Chorus]
I've been on the shelf too long
Sitting at home in my bed too long
Got my things and now I'm gone
How's the world gonna take me?
[Verse 2]
Finding myself used to be hard
But now I see the light
If love is a drug
Then I don't need it
[Chorus 2]
I've been on the shelf too long
Sitting at home in my bed too long
Now it's time to hear my song
How are you gonna take it?
[Chorus 3]
I've been on the shelf too long
Think the words without the song
Never had a way to go
Tell me now I'll take it
[Break]
I've been on the shelf too long
I've been on the shelf too long
I've been on the shelf too long
[Verse 3]
Come on, come on, come on inside
We've got a lot of living to do
There's a door in my mind that's open wide
Come inside come inside
[Outro]
Jesus never saved me
He'll never save you too, and, you know
I've got a little sticker on the back of my boot
This is music
And now I see the light shining bright in my eyes
If love is the drug then it ain't for me
Well music is my life
And loved by me
I'm gonna move on the floor with my sweet young thing
Down down down we go till we reach the bottom
Of our soul with this is music

So It Goes Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Life
Roll my die
Change this life
You said this movie was mine
But now you go and change your mind
This is my life
[Chorus 1]
So it goes
You come in on your own in this life
You know you leave on your own
[Verse 2]
'Cause I don't need no cause
When my feelings fall
You showed me things I didn't want to see
I don't believe that love is free
Sure fine way to treat a man
[Chorus 1]
[Chorus 2]
Life
This is my life
[Chorus 1]
[Chorus 2]
[Chorus 1]
[Outro]
I'm just a poor little wifeless fella
I'm just a poor little wifeless fella
I'm just a poor little wifeless fella
I'm just a poor little wifeless fella
Another drink and I won't miss her
Another drink and I won't miss her
Another drink and I won't miss her
Another drink and I won't miss her

Brainstorm Interlude Lyrics

6 ContributorsBrainstorm Interlude LyricsComing in, coming in, coming in, coming in
Coming in, coming in, coming in, coming in
I'm in my home when you give me a sing
And I tell you to put me in to your mind
And if you want to kiss me, don't say goodbye
'Cause I'm on my own to denies
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah

No Knock on My Door Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She knew my feelings were jangled and frayed
She took me into a wind blown alley way
She showed me a world a boy should see
I'll thank her till the day that I die
[Chorus 1]
So, here we go
No knock on my door
Baby, do you see what living has done to me?
And I'm sure that I need holding
[Verse 2]
I took her to a room and I showed her myself
She made me feel proud and I was thankful
There's nothing that this girl wouldn't do for me
For that I've gotta thank her, I mean it
[Chorus 2]
So, here we go
A face in the crowd
Jump up and jump down
Baby, can you see through me?
[Chorus 3]
Sure, I've been here before
No knock on my door
No love in the car
Baby, please be my star
[Chorus 4]
Sure, I've seen it before
No knock on my door
Love in the car can be painful, I know
[Chorus 5]
Cry, I cry every night
I need to hold you tight
Baby, can you see me
Knocking down your door?
[Chorus 6]
Sure, there's times I have hoped
There's times I have dreamed
Oh, but it seems that much to me, my love
That I never seemed to put it out, my love
[Outro]
And I'm shaking
Yeah, I'm shaking
Yeah, I'm shaking

Life's an Ocean Lyrics

8 ContributorsLife’s an Ocean LyricsLife's an ocean
Too much commotion
Too much emotion
Dragging me down
Living for today, don't have time to pray
Ready for the game
Take a line of fickle flame
Imagine the future
Woke up with a scream
I was buying some feelings
From a vending machine
Say that I will see
Something more than I have
There's something inside of me
Crying out for something else
And if someone hears this scream
Put it in a letter to me
Slippery slidey road down
Slippery slidey road down
Slippery slidey road down
Slippery slidey road down
Life's an ocean
Too much commotion
Not enough emotion to satisfy me
Slippery slidey road down
It's a slippery slidey road down
Hold my hand and we'll walk down
Dry those eyes and we'll walk down
It's a slippery slidey road down
Slippery slidey road down
Life's an ocean
Life's an ocean
Too much commotion
Too much emotion
Too much emotion
Too much emotion
Too much emotion
Too much emotion

Stormy Clouds Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wanted to tell you my story
How my life seemed to change in a matter of days
The heavens break I am walking tall
How come change always seems to bring the rain
[Chorus]
Stormy clouds, new horizons
[Verse 2]
Come and get it, if you want to
So hop on the train Cause it kills the pain
Blues player going to another town
Believe me this boy here is sinking
Just drinking
These streets, these times
They tie me down, I'm through with you
But through it all, I feel no pain
[Chorus]
