Last year this time
November, you remember
Cross court, across time
Attitude, the whole world could be mine
Time flies
Thick blood, hot steam,
Life choices, still hearing voices
Crossed arms, crossed lines
Latitude, compressing the world's time
I shined
Fine time
Now we're back in the season
I got my own reasons
Still got some demons
But I just keep on believin'
It's a fine time, let the sun shine in my eyes
The world's mine
Right here, right now
Decision, moment collision
Cross words, cross rhymes
Attributes, just read between my lines
Sign of the times
Fine time
Now we're back in the season
I got my own reasons
Still got some demons
But I just keep on believin'
It's a fine time, let the sun shine in my eyes
The world's mine
Heaven, heaven's light
Let the sun shine
Now we're back in the season
I got my own reasons
Still got some demons
But I just keep on believin'
There's a reason
For every season
So I just keep on
I just keep on believen'
It's a fine time, let the sun shine in my eyes
We're back in the season
I got my own reasons
Still got some demons
But I just keep on believin'
What I'm meanin'
Might be deceivin'
You don't see the reason
But I just keep on believin'
It's a fine time, let the sun shine in my eyes
The world's mine

CHORUS
12 bars, guitars
Act like a star
Sing some songs, and make ya cry
Bad ass, no class
Sit on my ass
Rockstar shining bright tonight
Every song I write is true
Every song I write is for you
CHORUS
Everything I sing is for you
I'd never lie, babe you know it's true
CHORUS
Everything I do, I do for you
Every song I write is for you
And you, and you, and you
12 bars, guitars act like a star...
12 bars, guitars act like a star...

I, I, I, I'm addicted... (2xs)
One time
One taste
One instance (One time, one taste is all it takes. Just one)
Just one
Breach of resistance
I, I, I, I'm addicted... (2xs)
You're in my head
You stay in my head
I shouldn't admit
How much I like it
You're in my head
Always in my head
I shouldn't admit
How much I want it
I'm addicted
I, I, I, I'm addicted......
One word
One voice lingers
Just one
Pull of the trigger
I, I, I, I'm addicted... (2xs)
You're in my head...
I'm addicted
You're in my head...
You're in my head
In my blood, til I'm dead
I shouldn't admit
How I much want it
You're in my head
Always in my head
I shouldn't admit
I shouldn't want it
I'm addicted
I'm addicted
I'm addicted

Can't Hear You

It's late
I'm feelin girlie
Let's drink
Til it gets early
My head keeps telling me it's right
It's time
To hit the dance floor
I, I
Couldn't want you more
Do you think it could be tonight
Oh no, no
I can't hear you
It's too loud in here
I can't hear you
You're drowning out, but I want/need to
Know if tonight is the night
Weird vibe
I need cover
But I'm
Such a bad bluffer
And I can't read you in this light
Last chance
To make the big move
Last dance
I gotta know if you
If you think it could be tonight
Oh no, no, I can't hear you...
Cause I....want to go home soon
Do you want to go home with me too?
Do.......... you?
Oh no, no, I can't hear you...

Sugar

He already knows
At least he thinks so
He's been known for quick scores
So he puts on his best show
He brings a free drink and big smile
Chattin' it up then after a while he says
Give me sugar
I want you sugar
Give me sugar
I dont think so
Give me sugar
Come give me sugar
Give me sugar
I dont think so
But thanks for free drinks
He's not ready for no
And so he sings something soft & slow
He knows he sings like a bird
It always works like a yo-yo
When she's out the end in a deep spin
He sings a little tug on her heart string to pull her in
Give me sugar...
He never had a chance
Too bad for his romance
It won't help this time that he's so handsome
You know he's full of shit
And if I do admit
I like toying with him just a bit
I don't think I'll tell him anything
Give me sugar...

Serious

So I thought, so I thought that I used to be smart
So I thought, so I thought, so I thought, I thought
But now I know, now I know, now I know I was wrong
I was wrong, so wrong about what I thought
I'm disinclined to talk about my state of mind
But I can't think straight
I'm not making a joke
Though that's quite unusual
You know I joke
About everything
But not this time
I'm serious....
I'm not making a joke...
I can't think straight
Everyday, everyday is a struggle for me
Hold my thoughts, hold my tongue, everyday, everyday
I crossed the line, crossed boundaries of my mind
And now I can't think straight
I'm not making a joke...
It all seemed so simple
At the alter of my the temple
Taking offerings, offerings, now I'm faltering
False gods always crumble
And here I am a pile of rubble
With my offerings, my offerings
My mind in pieces
With the bitter taste of my own medicine
I can't think straight
I'm not making a joke...

Missing You
05:26

Every time I think of you
I always catch my breath
And I’m still standing here
And you’re miles away
And I'm wondering why you left
And there’s a storm that’s raging
Through my frozen heart tonight
I hear your name, in certain circles
And it always makes me smile
I spend my time, thinking about you
And it’s almost driving me wild
And there's a heart that’s breaking
Down this long distance line tonight
CHORUS
I ain’t missing you at all
Since you’ve been gone, away
I ain’t missing you
No matter, what I might say
There’s a message, in the wires
And I’m sending you this signal tonight
You don’t know, how desperate I’ve become
And it looks like I’m losing this fight
In your world I have no meaning
Though I'm trying hard to understand
And it's my heart that’s breaking
Down this long distance line tonight
CHORUS
I ain’t missing you at all
Since you’ve been gone, away
I ain’t missing you
No matter, what my friends say
And there’s a message that I’m sending out
Like a telegraph to your soul
And if I can’t bridge this distance
Stop this heartbreak overload
CHORUS
I ain’t missing you at all
Since you’ve been gone, away
I ain’t missing you
No matter, what my friends say
And there's a storm that's raging
Through my frozen heart tonight
CHORUS
I ain’t missing you at all
Since you’ve been gone, away
I ain’t missing you
No matter, what I might say....
