Way Out

you can't tell the truth
and you don't want to lie
so you remain silent
while you try to decide

what is your way out
how do you get out
get out get out get out

but you can't stay silent
and you can't hide
so you avoid me
while you try to decide

what is your way out
how do you get out
get out get out get out

your back against a hard place
and the rock's in sight
you look around
while you try to decide

what is your way out
how do you get out
get out get out get out

Turn Out The Lights

The lights go out and the darkness sweeps the floor.
I've seen enough. I close my eyes and see no more.

My pen is dull, my ink is dry and that's alright.
Time to turn the page - this is the last song that I write.

Bravery Has Died

bravery has died
the heroes won't survive
long live cowardice
long live the likes of you and I

bravery has died
the heroes won't survive
long live cowardice
because the fear keeps us alive

bravery has died
or if it ain't dead then it sure is dying
bravery has died
now it's just a matter of time

bravery has died
altough some claim it was buried alive
bravery has died
it's friends all fled and left it to die

bravery has died
shot from a car that was driving by
bravery has died
but I'm pretty sure it'll be alright

bravery has died
it died for the likes of you and I

Brazil

I was sitting under a palm tree
strumming my guitar
when a big spider walked up to me
and said something real bizarre

it said, what are you gonna do?
where are you gonna go?
what's that you say?
what do you mean, you don't know?

I was making like a Tarzan
swinging from the vines
I'd dumped Jane a long time ago
I had a monkey by my side

stranded on an airplane
my heart a broken mess
don't know where I am going to
crazy with loneliness

Turn Around

life's a lonesome road sometimes
and sometimes all you have is time
yet even time leaves you behind
good friends are so hard to find
but just when you think that there's nobody
turn around
that's where your friends will be

you build up dreams all through your life
some of them you sacrifice
some you just have set so high
that you don't even dare to try
and just when you think that they'll never be real
turn around
that's where your dreams will be

life will break you in so many ways
it's hard to get through some of the days
it draws lines all over your face
even the smile on your face feels out of place
and just when you're ready to give up on me
turn around
that's where I'm gonna be

Everything's Just Fine

everything's alright
the sun shines though it's night
everything's just fine
tears of laughter out of cryin'
everything's alright
balls of fire 'cross the sky
everything's just fine
I can't believe it though I try
no, no

everything's okay
so you just wait another day
everything's alright
broken toys inside my mind
everything's just great
people acting out their hate
everything's just fine
I can't believe it though I try
no, no

everything is well
if you ignore the alarm bells
everything's just fine
we're alive though we're dying
everything's alright
hope just fell out of sight
everything's just fine
I can't believe it though I try
no, no

everything's alright
we agree, but still we fight
everything's just fine
no one makes it out alive
everything's alright
yeah right
everything's just fine
I can't believe it though I try
no, no
