Partner In Crime
I’ll drive the getaway car you can ride shotgun
We’ll hole up ‘cross the county line like outlaws on the run
If you let me steal your heart
Like you stole mine
I could be your you could be my…
Partner in crime
You made the list of most wanted in a Soho dive
You’re guilty of a crime of passion
I’ll be your victim the rest of my life
If you let me steal your heart
Like you stole mine
I could be your you could be my…

Star
You know what’s like to be all alone
At a felt-lined table with your money blown
And your down to your last few cents
Croupier says baby place your bet
You’ve come too far to just walk away
Start again in some other place
That’s not how you play the game
That ain’t how your gonna make your name
Gotta feelin’ it’s gonna be alright
Gonna roll the dice roll the dice
Your star’s gonna shine (x4)
Yeah, there comes a time
Your star’s gonna shine
You made yourself a promise tonight
There ain’t a wrong you can’t make right
You’re gonna be the change be the bright light
Or you’re gonna go down tryin’
You’ve lost a lot but not your nerve
You could fill up a book with all you’ve learned
You took a big step back from the brink
Cause you know it don’t matter what anyone thinks
It’s don’t matter what anyone thinks
>chorus (x2)<
Ragged
This morning I woke half drunk
Got up got myself home
My head feels like it’s been split wide
By a C&O freight train
Left you in bed asleep
Just to cover my retreat
Couldn’t face one more conversation
About giving you my name
Lately I’m so much more Abel than Cain
Worn ragged
Lost inside the thought stuck in my head
Worn ragged
Can’t take back the things I never said
There’s little comfort in
Old desires or drinking
But the loneliness will make ya second guess
On a Sunday afternoon
So I just drop by for one
But the evening is still young
And home don’t feel as much like home
As a dimly lit barroom
These days life plays like a guitar out of tune
>chorus<
You give yourself like a mercenary can’t get used to ordinary
And ya think you’re damned if ya do or if ya don’t
>chorus<
This morning I woke half drunk
Got up got myself home
My head feels like it’s been split wide
By a C&O freight train
100 Year Flood
I want to watch the water rise
Like it does only once in a lifetime
Want you to wash over me
Out of control raging and deep
I want to drown
With you right now
Let the river carry me
I want to get swept up get swept downstream
Want to know the rush of your love
Like a 100-year flood
I want to feel the levee break
Steel myself stand and wait
As that wall of water comes
Like a 100-year flood
Take me where I’ve never been
Drag me under again and again and again
Til I’ve got no strength left
Til I come up gasping for breath
I want to drown
With you right now
>chorus<
I want to watch the water rise
Like it does only once in a lifetime…
>chorus<
Mary Believe
The cross you carry weighs on my mind
I’d kneel to wash your feet but the river’s run dry
The sins that gather like dust on the sill
Aren’t so quickly wiped away they linger still
Look at me tell me what you see
Your slave to redemption
Your constant sympathy
Mary believe…
Can’t sweep away the past like leaves off the porch
Can’t bend the iron without a flame in the forge
Miscellaneous things confuse good with bad
Make you question what you thought you had
Look at me tell me what you see
Your slave to redemption
Your constant sympathy
Mary believe…
The cross I carry weighs on your mind
Feel like a drifter tryin’ to hitch a ride
On a long stretch of highway but no-one slows down
Don’t think I can make it to the next town
Look at me tell me what you see
Your slave to redemption
Your constant sympathy…
Mary believe
and lay back down beside me
C’mon Mary believe
Someday soon it gets easy
Mary believe
and lay back down beside me
C’mon Mary believe
Someday soon it gets easy
C’mon Mary believe
