you won't show me anything lady
you hide behind your unlocked doors
yeah back inside your hide away
but you need to know just whats in store
all the people say Im sick in the head
but its love baby love, love baby... love
“if you stick with me you’ll end up dead” they said
but its love little baby love, love, love
yeah I spend a lot of time outside your place
and wait to see what time you turn the lights
yeah deep inside your hideaway
I wonder what you do at night
all the people say Im sick in the head
but its love baby love, love baby... love
“if you stick with me you’ll end up dead” they said
but its love little baby love, love, love
who can say what makes me happy
all it takes is a little gimpse you see
no one knows except little old me
what it takes to make me happy
you won't show me anything lady
you hide behind your unlocked doors
yeah back inside your hide away
but you need to know just whats in store
all the people say Im sick in the head
but its love baby love, love baby... love
“if you stick with me you’ll end up dead” they said
but its love little baby love, love, love

Take me to the place, where everything is colorful
We're surfing on the waves, and everything is wonderful
The sun comes through the shade, the darkness takes a dreaded bow
Succumbing to the rays, please illuminate me now
Shine a light on me
Just let me be
No reality
My only time of zen, is floating on a sunny sea
The ocean takes me in, escaping from the agony
The birds up in the sky, they sing a song so heavenly
The wind will pass us by, she whispers words of poetry
Shine a light on me
Just let me be
No reality
Take me to a time
Where I could feel no pain
The sun is going to shine
And I know she calls my name
I just want to sail the waves and let them set me free
Deliver me from the stormy days that will not let me see

deep in the heart of darkness
lies a book of lies and deep truth
in the heart of a city on the water
a testament to history and proof
a reflection of sky and water
a reflection of thoughts and lives
words that last forever
words that cut like knives
Black diamond
spanning centuries
black diamond
searching miles
black diamond
crossing deserts
black diamond
deep in the soul of a poet
are pictures brought to be
images in the mind’s eye
made for all to see
a reflection of true beginnings
a reflection of air and sea
words that live past lips
words that will forever be
Black diamond
spanning centuries
black diamond
searching miles
black diamond
crossing deserts
black diamond

Summer's here get up for the lowdown
City gettin hotter primed for a showdown
Itchy trigger finger gonna make it alright
Savin up my pennies for the Saturday night
Better watch you back like a heart attack
Long legs smooth lines
Black dress cuts like a butterfly knife
Going all in hold tight
When the time is right (don't fight)
Be howlin in the moonlight
Sleep all day can't wait for the weekend
Summer time blues sinking deep in the quicksand
Rolling round Rosie & stompin on Jane
Saving up my pennies for a runaway train

Feel it burning deep inside you
come on let it out
Is it a big surprise? I won't apologize
You got to let it out somehow
Mother, Father I swear I'm fine
You son ain't lost his mind
Its just the way we play
We bang our heads and sway
There ain't no other way
Shut Up and just bang your head
Stay out late til the party's over
But when I wake I need the music in my ears
Guitars are screaming loud
The Bass is thumpin proud
The Singer's telling us his song
So babe if you want a man who is wild
I like to let it all just let it all hang out
This is the place to be
Just bang your head with me
Cause I wanna get it on with you
Shut Up and just Bang your head
Stand up shut up and just bang your head

I Just Wanna Rock
I can’t take another day of 9 to 5
Gotta find another way
Had too much of them business suits
Tryin to tell me how to look and what to say
Well here’s my notice
I’m packin’ it up
I’m hittin’ the road
Cuz’ I just wanna rock
Ain’t no way I’m gonna cut my hair
I’m gonna let it fly
And wear what I wanna wear
All that shit up the company ladder
Can’t buy for me what really matters
Well here’s my notice
I’m packin’ it up
I’m hittin’ the road
Cuz’ I just wanna rock
9 AM don’t work for me
You only get one life to be free
This loud guitar is in my veins
Gotta quit this job before I go insane
(Fuckin Guitar Solo)
Well, consider this my last report
It’s a part of me that I just can’t ignore
Well I’ll break the bank and live day to day
With a loud guitar and a smile on my face
You don’t get 2 weeks, today’s the day
There ain’t no way in hell I’ll stay
This is it, I’m burnin’ the bridge
I’ll take my new life off the grid
Well here’s my notice, I’m packin’ it up
I’m hittin’ the road
Cuz’ I just wanna rock
Lights, Guitar, Action!

don't say you know what it means
all your favorite scenes
haven't seen you round no more
I know you've been laying low
waiting for the blowback
you know it's coming down
don't say let it go
you don't mean it
I just gotta know
I can't make you stay
it's yours to say
but I'd give most anything
If you make your way
to yesterday
I will keep your promise ring
somewhere, there's a place for you
I'd take you if I knew
how to keep you true
but you'll be where you need to be
can't see what you see
beyond these ivy walls
don't say let it go
you don't mean it
I just gotta know
I can't make you stay
it's yours to say
but I'd give most anything
If you make your way
to yesterday
I will keep your promise ring

It sounds like broken glass in a thunderstorm
It sounds like butterflies in the sun
The noise of 1,000 weak men
Realizing that they're strong
The painful sigh as the gun goes off
The silent smirk as you fall
The restless scream of integrity
To be genuine, after all
--- This is what rock & roll sounds like
It looks like dinner suits & biker boots
It looks like sunsets in a field
You're digging up dirt in a mini-skirt
Your soul bare & revealed
When you look like you'll fall or hit the wall
You watch your spirit rise
Might be a song, might not last long
Something we recognize
--- This is what rock & roll looks like
It feels like habit or a ritual
It feels like burning down the wire
If you love it, it might get physical
If you love it, you will inspire
Some days you wait for the world to start
You're bracing for the fall
Like feathers in your big brass bed
Or you're racing the wrecking ball
--- This is what rock & roll feels like

Your secret’s laced with bitterness of fate
Your mission is a carnival mistake
Your stinging words sputter as they spin and spin and spin again
Yet all the while your skin is paper thin
We know where you’ve been
Lost your faith again, believer
Why must you pretend
You’re not like them
When you roll the dice
To get to paradise
You know you’re gonna have to pay
That’s the devil way
A brand new face, a brand new town for the wife
No time for lessons -not on your life
He was quick, got no time for the pain
Hotel caressing over the stains
We know where you’ve been
Lost your faith again, believer
Trying to pretend
You’re not like them
When you roll the dice
To get to paradise
You know you’re gonna have to pay
That’s the devil way
You can be the party queen
With a beer and a cigarette, oh yeah
Living the dream
While you’re winning at roulette
There’s a bullet with your name
When you roll the dice
To get to paradise
You know you’re gonna have to pay
That’s the devil way
