You Never Know

one, two, three, four
don't go too far
don't look down
don't show your feelings unless no one is around
who might drown you
never know who you're crying to
what they're going through
what they think of you
if they see blues or reds
if they are half alive or half dead
you never know
don't go to the left
don't move to the right
don't open your mouth
hold your neck tight
who do you think you are special
like you're some kind of star
who are you talking to
do they, do they think like you
what lies underneath
we're all misled
is this your choice
or their voice in your head
you never know
you never know
you never know
you never
you never know
you never know
you never know
...
do you see blues or reds
are you half alive or half dead
who are you talking to
do they, do they think like you
you never know

Snow

I can't feel my fingers and my eyes are burning
this always happens when will I learn?
I was on fire and I let you happen
I always go too far
And I feel the burn - the snow is falling and you won't let me in
I brought on the winter
The cold comes from within me
Here in the dark, Here in the quiet
I don't cry - I sit and wait
Without you, I'm nothing
Without you, I'm frozen
Without love, life's not worth living
Please tell me it's not too late - the snow is falling and you won't let me in
I brought on the winter
The cold comes from within me
Me!
Me!
Please tell me you love me
Please bring back the sun
My darling, I'm sorry
Please tell me I'm the one
Please tell me you love me
Please bring back the sun
My darling, I'm sorry
Please tell me I'm the one

I like the way you walk
I like the way you talk
I like the way you move
I'm so damn into you - you go that groove.
I like the way you run
I don't care where you hide
I will find you baby
Need you honey by my side
I like the way you feel
I like the way you sound
You're getting me so high
Before I hit the ground
I like the way you run
No matter where you hide
I will find you baby
Need you honey - by my side
I like the way you feel
You make me wanna scream
I want you so badly
So come on daddy - why you be so mean?
I like the way you run
No matter where you hide
I will find you baby
Need you honey - by my side
I like the way you run
No matter where you hide
You're so fine. I think about you all the time.
All the time, All the time
All the time, All the time
All the time, All the time

No matter where you hide

Love Please

I slip on the small stones
because I have weak legs
Won't you lend me your bones?
So I can dance through these days
So I'm small and your big
So you hit and I dig
Yeah, we're different, we're not the same
but I'm picking up pieces, that's why I came
Why can't you just love her?
Why can't you just love please?
Why can't you just love her?
Why can't you just love me?
I move through the darkness
but you see right through me
You wanna cut my strings
why can't you just pull me?
So you're strong and I'm tired
You're so calm, but I'm on fire
Yeah, we're different, we're not the same
but I'm looking for something, that's why I came
Why can't you just love her?
Why can't we just love please?
Why can't you just love her?
Why can't you just love me?
Why can't I just love her?
Why can't we just love please?
Why can't you just love her?
Why can't you just love me?
La La - La...
Just pull me in your direction
Just move me with your protection
Your protection
Your protection
Why can't you just love her?
Why can't you just love please?
Why can't you just love her?
Why can't you just love me?
Why can't I just love her?
Why can't we just love please?
Why can't you just love her?
Why can't you just love me?
Why can't I just love her?
Why can't we just love please?
Why can't you just love her?
Why can't you just love me?
Love me!!!
Love Please.

Here (acoustic)

It's so simple, it's so clear.
It's apparent - I can't stay here.
I didn't know, I gotta go, I am wrong, I don't belong,
Gonna get caught before too long, and you want me to come along.
And you took my hand.
It's so crazy that I trust you. But I do.
It's been forever since I've seen you.
Didn't work out the last time, but here we are on this fast ride.
Gonna burn burn burn this lovers flame - makes me feel alive
and I wanna feel it again.
And you do that to me.
Hey!
It's almost over, so hold on.
It's been a life time, how we've grown!
You kissed my face, I kicked your leg,
your father died, my hair went grey.
You kept my soul safe from the rain
and I'll never leave you again.
I love you.

Alive

Time is t-ticking away
They're gonna bowl you over
You just don't know what you've done
You don't know what's coming
You better move son
Time is t-ticking away
You don't know which way to go
But one thing is clear
You better move
They're gonna bowl you over
They're gonna eat you alive
You better pick a direction
If you're gonna survive
You better move son
The rats are chewing away
But they just like to bite bite bite
It's not for release
It's just to sharpen to their teeth
They're gonna eat you alive
and not just to survive
It's just for fun
You better move son
You better move son
Time is s-slipping away
But you don't even care
And your heart beat is so so ohhh
is so slow
You're gonna bowl them over
You're gonna eat 'em alive
If they even try to make you survive
They better move son
Time is t-ticking away
They better move son
They better move son
They better move
They better!

Now

This indecision's killing me
It's leaving me with no place to go
because I don't know....
It's fooling me, it's tricking me,
It's losing me, it's kicking me down
where I don't want to go, where I can't go...
It's confusing me, eroding me,
eluding me, it's starting to scare me!
I've come so far and bear the scars just to see the stars...
disappearing... from my view.
What can I do?
I'm just wandering everywhere
I'm just trying to be found
when everyone knows you've got to stay in one place
But is it here? And is it now?
Can my dreams - my love - transcend this infinite space?
I'm just trying to get by.
I'm just trying to find the light...
When everyone knows you've got to look deep inside.
But is it here? And is it me?
Can my dreams - my love - transcend this infinite space?
I've come so far and bear the scars just to see the stars...
I will reach them before I'm through.
That's what I'll do.

Morning Noon and Night
03:59

|
You traded your guitar
for some bullets and a horse
You say you hate to use that gun
but your hands been forced
You already lit the match
your memories are all in flames
You say there's no turnin' back
and nobody's playin no games
Morning noon and night
through the heat of burnin hell
You're lookin for a fight
You've got a thirst you cannot quell
Mornin noon and night
you're seeking your revenge
You say you're not long for this life
and you're going to find its end!
Yeah Yeah Yeah!
You dont dream no more
When you do it all turns red
You dont see my face
You look right through my head
- to the horizon
and the sun that's comin up
I am going with you
I'm not gonna give up
Morning noon and night
Where you going I will follow
I won't let you out of my sight
I will be your shadow
Morning noon and night
through the blood sweat and tears
We will ride through your darkest nights
for years and years and years
Yeah Yeah Yeah!
Morning noon and night

Crooked Lines
03:56
|
|||
|
This is a ruined town
You are a broken place
This is useless ground
It has a senseless taste
Get the dirt out of my mouth
This is a branded time
It has hazardous waste
A bent and crooked line
Going to no place
So long road headin' down
And you don't have to go
no you really don't have to go
This is a burned down door
A house that goes nowhere
This room is full of ghosts
They just point and stare
Turn away you don't need to see it.
Adjust your eyesight
You cannot see within
The scars are just skin deep
and we all have skin
take off your scars
and I'll take of mine
Then they won't show
No they won't, no they won't show.
We are, we are, we are already dead in the future
We are, we are, we are already dead in the future
We are, we are, we are already dead in the future
....
So don't wait for the future.

The River
02:44
|

|
If you look in the river just right
It looks like the sky at night
Just when you think you're leaving town
You're falling in and you're starting to drown
The devil takes his own
Right on home
Said I was done
Because I lost all my money
That was pretend
I'm not fooling nobody
I got no control
These things just spill out of my soul
It's deep inside my veins
To deny it leaves me in chains
I tried to leave it and go my own way
but God damn that demon can play
The devil plays my song
All night long.
I got no control
These things just move me in my soul
It flows right through my veins
To deny it leaves me in chains
The devil takes his own
Right on home
The devil takes his own
Right on home

Some of Us
04:19
|

|
Don't be so hard on yourself
If it wasn't you, it'd be somebody else
We all have to amputate some of our parts
So we can relate
And it seems like some of us cut off a lot less
But hey! They don't bleed.
And it seems like some of us, we don't get that far
because we don't feel the need
I need to bleed because I - I have dreams
Don't feel so bad
Everyone leaves, nothing lasts
We all do what we have to do
Who am I to try to stop you?
And it seems like all is lost but it's really not
if you know deep down inside
that you sacrificed for what you know is right
and you really tried
I need to feel so that I know I'm real
I try. I try.

Wasting the Light
02:12
|

|
Time is running out
Time is running
Time is running out
Time is up
And where are you going?
You're always wasting the light
Tearing yourself apart
You try to capture the night
Your head is spinning
Your vision's going out
Your beginning, watch out
And what are you doing?
You don't know how to sew and
you cut yourself open
You know it's gonna show
And no one wants to know
No one wants to know
No one wants to know
And where are you going?
You're always wasting the light
Tearing yourself apart
You're trying to capture the night

Grown Up Avenger Stuff Charlotte, North Carolina
A quick description of our sound could be "Hard Indie Rock" - perhaps QotSA with some Motown inspired harmonies and the occasional drop-C tuning. What's so special about us? Our music has, even in the most dark intense moments, an embedded smile - a wish that the music touches your heart in a way that makes you feel happy to be alive and good about who you are. ... more
