Throwdown

It starts slow, the sound of a heart breaking, we’ve come to know
mil-lions of miles from home, where do we go?
So come down, the line gets shorter with every round
take your turn, turn, turn, and just throw it down, down down.

Take It Or Leave It
03:35
|

I moved to the other side of town
Where the grass is greener I hope
Thought I had it figured out
But there’s so much I don’t know
I took a chance, dealt my hand
I remember so well, remember so well you say
Just take it or leave it
Just take it or leave it
There’s no in between it, no taste and see it
You gotta take it or leave it
Brought up with a simple state of mind,
Surrounded by glittering lights
Prince’s parade past my eyes
While I’m locked in my tower so high
I took a chance, dealt my hand
I remember so well, remember so well you say
Just take it or leave it
Just take it or leave it
There’s no in between it, no taste and see it
You gotta take it or leave it
What happens to the ones who, can’t decide,
What they really need, I’m standing right
In front of their eyes, I’m trying to find
A balance between wrong and then right,
Pursuing their happiness it isn’t quite,
As easy as living between the lines

The Good Ones
04:06

What happened to love your neighbour, love your father
when now it’s all about conquer one, outdo the other
brother, who wants to stand on their own,
when inside of each other lies a murderaa.
truth isn’t only in the eye of the beholder,
you sow your seeds for the day when this life is over
You take the good with the bad, and the bad with the broken
Is this the life, they way, and the move we’ve chosen,
Could we be the good ones
Could we be the good ones
Could we be the good, like the way we should
Could we be the good ones
What happened? I ask myself and still I wonder
Because to love, is the be and end all, I remember
Don’t let your fear take control
cuz inside each other lies a murderah
truth isn’t only in the eye of the beholder,
you sow your seeds for the day when this life is over
You take the good with the bad, and the bad with the broken
Could we be the good ones
Could we be the good ones
Could we be the good, like the way we should
Could we be the good ones
Bridge
Nothing you could ever say, could change my mind
Something’s just can’t be explained, so I’m not gonna try
but I feel the world is crying, crying for new life.
Could we be the good ones
Could we be the good ones
Could we be the good, like the way we should
Could we be the good ones

Good In Me
03:26
|

Many questions I’ve got but no body wants to take the
Time – to answer or to hear me out
Control they try to take from me
I cannot help the way I feel
My heart beat beats so quickly
like its running away, running away and you
Knock me down Take a shot
Place your bets Give it all you got.
Make your move While you can
Got one chance Do you need a hand?
Cuz I’ve got no trouble believing
That one day I’ll fall
But I will get up again
Is this the way to redeeming
The good in me? The good in me
It’s the have and the have nots, is it in me to take all the-
blame and sorrow, to turn the system inside out!
Control they try to take from me
I cannot help the way I feel
My heart beat beats so quickly
like its running away, running away and you
Knock me down Take a shot
Place your bets Give it all you got.
Make your move While you can
Got one chance Do you need a hand?
Cuz I’ve got no trouble believing
That one day I’ll fall
But I will get up again
Is this the way to redeeming
The good in me? The good in me
Everyday I wrestle with denial
tell myself I’ve got to fight the battle for survival
so evil haffi die and I’m a haffi be the killa
Everyday I wrestle with denial, could i be the one start the battle for revival
so evil haffi die and I’m a haffi be the killa
Knock me down Take a shot
Place your bets Give it all you got.
Make your move While you can
Got one chance Do you need a hand?
Cuz I’ve got no trouble believing
That one day I’ll fall
But I will get up again
Is this the way to redeeming
The good in me? The good in me

You Got Me
03:34
|

I’ve got no words, I’ve got no feeling
you, just take them away, like I don’t need them
I, can’t cry no more, can’t even lie no more
You’ve got me truly believing that
Livin’ ain’t livin’ until you’re truly living here with me then -
I feel you getting closer
I feel you taking over
I feel you got me, got me good
I feel the way you move me
Broken, but still you choose me
I feel you got me, got me good.
All my desires, to you I give them
My life had no purpose, till you gave me meaning
I can’t decide no more got off the train I was aboard
you give me such a confident feelin’, that
living ain’t livin’ until you’re living here with me then -
I feel you getting closer
I feel you taking over
I feel you got me, got me good
I feel the way you move me
Broken, but still you choose me
I feel you got me, got me good
Now look at what you’ve done now, you think you’re having all the fun now
Won’t you look at what you’ve done now, giving me the run around

Crash
03:28
|

I’ve got to crash, so I can get back up again
Start it from scratch, it’s the only way I’ll ever win
It’s the only way I’ll ever win, heart beats a little faster now
It’s the only way I’ll ever win, got rid of what was holding me down
It’s the only way I’ll ever win, I feel the end is coming soon
It’s the only way I’ll ever win, but that just means I’m starting a new

Final Round
04:51
|

Maybe I’m just nervous, maybe I’m a bit naive
Maybe I deserve this, maybe this was meant to be
I’ll bring my best behavior, would that be enough for prove?
that I don’t need no saving, I just need the honest truth
When everything goes down, in the final round
Will I be the one left standing round,
When the fire’s out, and there’s nothing left to burn down
In the final round, it’s finished and I’m starting over now,
In the final round
Maybe I’m just changing, cuz lately I don’t understand cuz
my thoughts are rearranging, but my fears have all taken a stand
When everything goes down, in the final round
Will I be the one left standing round,
When the fire’s out, and there’s nothing left to burn down
In the final round, it’s finished and I’m starting over now,
In the final round
Cause when the end comes and when my time is out
I’ll be standing at the finish line taking my final bow

Traveling Heart
04:41
|

I wanna go, I wanna go, to Paris and Rome cause
maybe my heart is waiting there for me.
I wanna see, I wanna see, just how it feels
when somebody truly cares for me
So all I ask, is if you find it
Tell me fast, don’t you hide it
Because if my heart is a traveller
could I be the one who’s worthy to guide it
and will it lead me right to where you are
Because if my heart is a traveller
could I get a first class ticket to find it,
and will it be exactly where you are
Now I’m in my fast car, going 90 on the autobahn
I’m slipping in and out of thinking that there could be something wrong
I’ve got my destination figured out, but my maps all wrong
See I’ve been driving round in circles, so I stop to ask where I should go
I feel it in my heart I’m getting closer, but they tell me no
I just can’t stop, searching for you
So all I ask, is if you find it
Tell me fast, don’t you hide it
cause where you are, is where I wanna be
heart and soul, there’s no place I’d rather be

Unfortunate love, chooses the wrong time
Unfortunate love, never seems to get it right
And you, you , you , you tell me that it’s true, true, true
you say, don’t hold your breath, cuz you’ll just end up dead
Unfortunate love, makes a sane man lose his mind
Unfortunate love, claims a victim every time
And you, you, you , you tell me that it’s true, true, true
you say, don’t hold your breath, cuz you’ll just end up dead
We played it out like a sad song in a sad movie on a bad day,
but Lord knows these might be the roles we are meant to play
Unfortunate love, takes and never seems to give
Unfortunate love, makes a heart hate to forgive
And you, you , you , you tell me that it’s true, true, true
you say, don’t hold your breath, cuz you’ll just end up dead
We played it out like a sad song in a sad movie on a bad day,
but Lord knows these might be the roles we are meant to play

The Sound
02:51
|
|||
I hear bells, calling me out like two lovers fighting
nothing short of amazing they’re kindly inviting
and slightly alarming, do I deserve, life after earth?
Cuz I remember, back, to a different state of mind when,
Everything around was so much simpler
Back to a different way of life, now is it too late?
Have I made a mistake?
Bright lights, are guiding me up to the gate
Could this be real? Could this be true?
Could this be how, I’d come back to you?
Now I’m not sure, just what to say
(cause I broke the) promise we made when you went away
Could this be me? Could this be you?
So far removed and slightly askew
Could this be how, we reunite what we’ve found?
My time’s running out, I hear the sound
I hear the sound, I am aware.
