Track Lyrics
Josephina Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Josephina, there's so much I want to know
I've known you for all of mine but not all of yours
You're not a stranger, no, nothing could be further
I look back and I wonder what you were like long before
[Verse 2]
Josephina, if I asked you, would you tell me?
The fact from the fancy and the dreams in between
Tell me a story all about yours truly
Photographs from the past, imagine the mystery
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Did you get your head lost in a daydream?
Cinderella waiting for her charming
Did you break a heart like little girls often do?
Pigtails and painted toes
All dressed up in your mother's clothes
[Chorus]
Can you shine the light?
Can you shine the light?
Oh please, can you shine some light?
Yeah, can you shine the light?
Shine the light on a shadow
[Verse 3]
Josephina, would you lay down your defenses?
So I can make sense of those colors fading to grey
Not that you're hiding, something I'd never imply
Yesteryear may be gone, can't say the same for today
[Guitar Solo]
[Refrain]
Yeah, Josephina
Ah, Josephina
[Pre-Chorus 2]
How else am I to know that all the while
There was a mischievous look behind that smile?
It's hard to tell when innocence comes and goes
I'm sure that there were times life could be unkind
Without a shoulder to cry on
[Chorus]
Can you shine the light?
Can you shine the light?
Yeah please, can you shine some light?
Yeah, can you shine the light?
Yeah, can you shine the light?
Shine the light on a shadow
Ballot or the Bullet Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Give me liberty or give me death
No truer words have ever been said
Well are you prepared for your very last breath?
Don't you dare start what you cannot finish
[Pre-Chorus 1]
So when we face, face the adversary
No longer are we the minority
[Verse 2]
And when history repeats her hour
The pendulum will swing, swing into power
Though not in vain like our forefathers
Freedom never had no room for cowards
[Pre-Chorus 2]
For in the end, there will be equality
By any means necessary
[Chorus]
The ballot or the bullet
The choice is up to you
The ballot or the bullet
Tell me what you gonna do
The sword or the pen
Can be held by the same hand
[Verse 3]
What's it gonna take to liberate?
An emancipation, a false proclamation?
All these token words that you legislate
Sound a little bit absurd and a little too late
[Pre-Chorus 3]
When a house is divided, it just will not stand
Once it's decided, a line drawn in the sand
[Chorus]
The ballot or the bullet
The choice is up to you
The ballot or the bullet
Tell me what you gonna do
The sword or the pen
Can be held by the same hand
[Guitar Solo]
[Refrain]
The ballot or the bullet
The choice is up to you
The ballot or the bullet
Tell me what you gonna do
[Chorus]
The ballot or the bullet
The choice is up to you
The ballot or the bullet
Tell me what you gonna do
The sword or the pen can be
The sword or the pen can be
The sword or the pen can be
The sword or the pen can be
The sword or the pen can be held, held by the same hand
How Many Say I Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Are you ever so silent when she wanted to talk?
Or couldn't keep quiet when she needed a hug?
Come on too strong when a little's too much?
How many, how many, say I
[Verse 2]
Go on and say yes and really mean no
Would you rather guess when you just don't know?
And then say I love you but aren't willing to show
How many, how many, say I
How many, how many, say I
[Chorus]
How many say I
How many say I
How many say I
How many say I
[Verse 3]
Say live and let live, so quick to judge
Slow to forgive when you're holding a grudge
Don't always believe all you need is love
How many, how many, say I
How many, how many, say I
How many, how many, say I
[Chorus]
How many say I
How many say I
How many say I
How many say I
[Chorus]
How many say I
How many say I
How many say I
How many say I
[String Solo]
[Verse 4]
Have you ever looked down when the homeless walked by?
Or changed the channel when you saw a hungry child?
Know something to be true, then deny it
How many, how many, say I
How many, how many, say I
How many, how many, say I
[Chorus]
How many say I
How many say I
How many say I
How many say I
[Chorus]
How many say I
How many say I
How many say I
How many say I
