So you wanna be a big man So you wanna be more than I can be So you wanna be big man Well let me tell you there's more you need to see You gotta find higher meaning You gotta learn that you're better on your own So come and join the revival Stick with us and you'll never be alone Keep your head straight Keep your mouth shut Never try to change And never give your love So you wanna find a new friend You got a look in your eyes that says you're wrong And if you wanna be a good friend Then cut em off cause' you're taking way too long Don't be afraid of your progress You're on of us and you're gonna be okay And if you want we'll confront them Wait awhile and we'll make them go away Keep your head straight Keep your mouth shut Never try to change And never give your love My eyes burn and my head hurts Wasted years what was it worth Now I have a place to go You better leave my gospel zone I found a place to live in my head I'm still alive but now I feel dead Are you so sad are your feelings hurt Hope you can see you treat me like dirt

Collide 04:49
Your eyes are telling lies Then I slipped into the night I lost some sight Of what I'm doing Find some other space Cause you occupy my mind But that's alright Because I'm never happy Wait a little while Saw your face and saw your smile I got to go Because I'm feeling lonely I should stay away Wait forever and a day I've got my girl I think she talks about me I'll think it through and I'll give it time Cause I don't wanna collide You gave your heart I never gave you mine I'm working to make it right I don't wanna collide x2 I just stand and stare When I'm out on friday night My hands are free And I'm not going dancing So I'll be alone Till I see you in my home Which one? I think I know the answer I am telling lies Then I slipped into the night I lost some sight Of what I'm doing Find some other space Cause you occupy my mind But that's alright Because I'm never happy I'll think it through and I'll give it time Cause I don't wanna collide You gave your heart I never gave you mine I'm working to make it right x4 I'll think it through and I'll give it time Cause I don't wanna collide You gave your heart I never gave you mine

The Kraken 03:00
You don't care much about me And I don't care nothing bout you So after years of trying Now it seems you're finally through And I've had my tough decisions The kraken's sad and blue There's no one to get off on What are you supposed to do So if you're not wanted why don't you get out We can build this up without you Take a little trip into the sunset baby Get a chance to go and clear your head I just got a little bit of love now lately I will keep on living till' I'm dead I cannot feel bad for you You did this to yourself And now you're gone forever You can't hurt nobody else Take a little trip into the sunset baby Get a chance to go and clear your head I just got a little bit of love now lately I will keep on living till' I'm dead
5.
Backfire 02:33
I can't explain where you're coming from Changing your mind and saying you gotta run Oh why Did you give me your time I cannot be mad But I know that I'll be sad about you I'll be around if you change your mind Keeping it cool until you opened your eyes Sometimes I'll remember what you said I can't be your friend If he comes back again This could be the end And I know that I'll be sad about you
6.
You think you're smart and I'm in the wrong I looked in your eyes it was you all along You made the mistake now you gotta pay You're lying to him it took me one day You don't love him You don't like us I'm not your friend I give no fuss You don't have my time now Hope this will sit in your mind now Watch as we both fade away now You'll find a new place to stay somehow I'll be around (sometimes) Your pretty face (was all mine) Should've stayed home (that night) I'm better alone (sometimes) You don't have my time now Hope this will sit in your mind now Watch as we both fade away now You'll find a new place to stay somehow credits

I'm No Enemy 03:27
Lost on the back nine but everyone's alright now You think that you're hot shit for calling me out somehow But you can't expect to be clean when it's all said and done After your lies I hope that you had some fun If you look bad it's not my fault You carried on for way too long You'll never see my side of things I guess you're just not what you seem but I'm no enemy I just wanna be nice To everything But you made it too hard You're killing me Kissed my lips and went back On everything I should've pushed you away but I let you come in You toured my house but you're not coming back again Maybe I pushed too hard and that's on me But I had to see you around for a couple of weeks If you look bad it's not my fault You carried on for way too long You'll never see my side of things I guess you're just not what you seem but I'm no enemy I just wanna be nice To everything But you made it too hard You're killing me Kissed my lips and went back On everything Fucked around and made me Your enemy I just wanna be nice To everything But you made it too hard You're killing me Kissed my lips and went back On everything I could give a million reasons Don't look back on indecision I could give a million reasons Don't look back on indecision I'm no enemy I just wanna be nice To everything But you made it too hard You're killing me Kissed my lips and went back On everything Fucked around and made me Your enemy I just wanna be nice To everything But you made it too hard You're killing me Kissed my lips and went back On everything
8.
Sin 01:09
I just got a little sin But I'm never doing it again I should've been a better boy And I should've been a better friend Sometimes I get way too lonely and I want you around I guess that I'm just way too phony Losing everything I've found
9.
Mind Up 02:50
The place I've been is not the place I want to go The state I'm in is never what it seems I thought I knew when I'm with you I'm never sure Answers come and answers go but I don't listen I don't think that you and me Can make it out this time All the things you said to me And now I wonder why If I could you know I would Love to make up my mind It's on me, all I can see And what is good for my life I get out but I don't want to go I think of what it's like if I could see The state I'm in and what I need to show The other one's the one I should have known I don't think that you and me Can make it out this time All the things you said to me And now I wonder why If I could you know I would Love to make up my mind It's on me, all I can see And what is good for my life

Interlude 01:30

Alter Call 04:29
I don't wanna be your preacher anymore Justify the reasons and see what's in store Hope you understand if I die and I go away Spirit's coming in and you came by yesterday I'm no enemy but you'll never be my friend Try to realize that you won't be back again Once you settle down they will never let you go I've been all around and now I wanna go home
12.
Spirit 05:02
I'm in the daylight You said you were alright So now I don't wonder why You said it before me Why don't you adore me I'm not gonna save your life And after all is said and done Will you still be the lonely one There was a story That you could've told me And we would've been alright But now you ignore me And you used to just bore me I guess we should say goodnight And after all is said and done Will you still hate me Don't you wanna go Don't you wanna go to heaven someday I know you do Don't you wanna go Don't you wanna go to heaven with me I know you do I feel the spirit I want you to hear it So you realize you're wrong When we get together We're feeling much better I want you to sing along
