New Blood

New life inside of me
Coarsing through my veins with
Every beat
And I feel it changing me
With every drop of
Blood I bleed
Better off
Letting go before the feling's lost
Cause
Holding on
Has a price and isn't worth the cost
So let it go
Let it go
New blood is in my veins
And it's calling me to change
But if I wait too long
Before it's gone
I'll always be the same
Moving on
Instead of waiting till the feeling's gone
Cause
What's the cost
To let go of things you've already lost
Can't be much
So let it go
Let itgo
New blood is in my veins
And it's calling me to change
But if I wait too long
Before it's gone
I'll always be the same
It's old blood
That leaves me drained
Until it's colors start to change
Blue to red
Old blood will shed
And I'll never be the same

Stand Down
02:41
|

Broke down, defeated
Or at least that's how it
Feels now as I bleed out
And with the world coming down
Around me it grounds me
But I won't let it get the
Best of me or test me
Not as long as I hold my own
Stand tall, shape up
The world's gonna try to
Keep me down and shut me out
And it feels like it wants to
See me fail but I'll prevail
Even if it takes a
Lifetime I'll still strive
For as long as I can so . . .
I won't
I won't stand down
No
I won't
I won't lose my ground
NO!
Steadfast and hold strong
Anchor down until the
Storm is gone and hold on
And the world's gonna try to
Let me drown and bring me down
But as long as I still got
Fight in me I'll still be
Holding on to my own so . . .
I won't
I won't stand down
No
I won't
I won't lose my ground
NO!

Redefine

I once thought I knew it all
And there was no more room to grow
(AND NOWHERE TO GO!)
But I learned that I was wrong
And there was plenty more to know
(BEFORE I KNEW IT ALL!)
So I tried
And I failed
Again and again
But each time
I learned
Learning never ends
So I gave it hell every time
But there was always more
If there was a darkness
YOU WERE THE LIGHT!
If there was a starkness
IT'D BE REDEFINED!
As I age I see myself
Looking back on where I've been
(AND ALL I DID!)
And sometimes it's hard to tell
How I got to where I am
(AND WHAT LIES AHEAD!)
But I see
How I grew
Time and time again
And each step
And each move
Is what I needed then
So I'll set my expectations high
Within sight
And I'll give it hell to get it right
Each time
If there was a darkness
YOU WERE THE LIGHT!
If there was a starkness
IT'D BE REDEFINED!
IT'D BE REDEFINED!
IT'D BE REDEFINED!

Dead Weight
03:00
|
|||
|
Looking back on things I did
I know that I was wrong
But I know the choices made
Won't hold me down for long
Dead ahead it's never set
Until the moment has come and gone
I ain't gonna be laid to rest
Until I sing my final song
Dead
Weight
Still
Coming down on
Me
Can't
Break
Free from my haunted dreams
I'd fall before my pride would come
If I ain't proud of what I've done
My conscience weighing down on me
And I swear it weighs a ton
I can still let go of
My burdens of the past
Leave that shit behind me and
There ain't no looking back
Dead
Weight
Still
Coming down on
Me
Can't
Break
Free from my haunted dreams

Carved In Stone

We'll be running out of road
Long before we're out of time
Ain't afraid of taking chances NO!
Ain't afraid of walking lines
By leaps and bounds we'll thrive
And make the world our own
Before it's our time to die
We'll come to claim our fucking thrones
We'll push our bodies to the limit
Long before we lose our minds
Ain't afraid of asking questions NO!
Ain't afraid of what we find
By leaps and bounds we'll thrive
And make the world our own
Before it's our time to die
We'll come to claim our fucking thrones
We'l carve our memories out of stone
Long before the memory's gone
Ain't afraid of what the past can show no
Ain't afraid of what's to come
By leaps and bounds we'll thrive
And make the world our own
Before it's our time to die
We'll come to claim our fucking thrones

Derailed

Feeling like a freight train on the run
Every mile I shed feels like a ton
Coming round' the bend full steam ahead
All signs say 'slow' but the brakes are dead
I've been derailed before
Each time I ware a little more
But I always make it back
No matter how far I fall from the track
Feeling like I've lost when I know I've won
Like I'm runing in a race that's already done
Feeling like I'm old when I know I'm young
But the night's still dark until I see the sun
I've been derailed before
Each time I ware a little more
But I always make it back
No matter how far I fall from the track
Coming round' the bend full steam ahead
All signs say 'slow' but the brakes are dead
