Cold Shoulders

Try something new, give your head a break
And learn to love the ones who give your head a shake
Give it one more try, over the edge you just might find
The first shot is not the one you save
Closed fists, eyes red, you tried to hold it back
Those words you said, keep them in the past
You’ll be miles away from the man you were that day
Only time will heal the broken dam that gave
You can’t think straight if you don’t walk away
Take time to find the words to say
You’ll look back a little older
And see no one should give cold shoulders
Cold shoulders
Cold shoulders
Cold shoulders
Deep breath, long walk
The cool wind on your face
Short steps, good talks,
To keep your mind at bay
Every once in awhile a man can lose his place
But he don’t look back cause time don’t turn that way
You can’t think straight if you don’t walk away
Take time to find the words to say
You’ll look back a little older
And see no one should give cold shoulders
Cold shoulders
Cold shoulders
Cold shoulders
You can’t think straight if you don’t walk away
Take time to find the words to say
You’ll look back a little older
And see no one should give cold shoulders
Cold shoulders
Cold shoulders
Cold shoulders

Why Can't I?

Time seems to be against me
The days keep flying by
Romance running on empty
The lovers well's running dry
Got a lot of love to give
I'm a sensitive guy
If everyone finds love
Why can't I
Maybe I'm too broken
Maybe I'm too shy
If everyone finds love
Why can't I
Maybe I'm too picky
Are my hopes too high
If everyone finds love
Why can't I
My heart's been rusted
Been left out in the rain
I guess it's over-trusted
It's seized up from the pain
I'm willing to work it out
I'm a hard working guy
If everyone finds love
Why can't I
Maybe I'm too broken
Maybe I'm too shy
If everyone finds love
Why can't I
Maybe I'm too picky
Are my hopes too high
If everyone finds love
Why can't I
All that I have is all that I could give
To find someone to share a lifetime with
I'm caring and I'm loyal
Stay by your side
If everyone finds love
Why can't I

Foolish Love

Have you ever walked with the sun in your eyes?
It’s the hardest part of the ride
It’s the world tryna keep you blind
Have you ever walked with a weight on your back?
It’s the washed up, bitter mind
Tryna pull you off the track
Don’t give in
Has anyone closed you inside of a box?
Tried to keep you on the beaten path
Filled your bag with rocks?
Has anyone told you enough is enough?
To leave your dreams behind?
You can’t win with only luck
Don’t give in
We’re just livin
If you give up now you’ll never keep it together
You’ll never find nothin you love better
Hear that sound it’s gonna hold you together
Our fire’s gonna burn forever
We’ve all got a story to tell and a light that needs to be seen
Name one more thing you could love so foolishly
Has anyone left you alone in the dark?
You ever found this life too hard?
Been kicked down or town apart?
Has anyone taken away your spark?
Anyone tossed you, turned you around?
Taken it way too far?
Don’t give in We’re just livin

Young

We're overprotective
We don't see her perspective
Got an iron fist that we raise at any chance
We can't trust her
Clouds of thunder
Being sixteen is always so unfair
Why the hell can't we just take her there
She's got a lot to say and we just don't care
One of these days she's gonna grow up now
Well she's still young she's got a lot to learn
Someday soon she's gonna take these words and thank us
Right now she'll hold it against us
I know even if she don't believe
That mom knows best one day she'll see
She'll thank us
Right now she'll hold it against us
She's a kid with no room for fun
Dog locked up with no place to run
Prisoner stuck in her own small town
We chained her legs just to keep her down
Why the hell don't we trust boys to keep her safe
We don't know what it's like to be young these days
If he won't knock what does that say?

Sing It Out!

If you can’t see all the grief inside of me
It’s cause I don’t need to speak it out
I don't need to speak it out
If you can’t read everything
I’m feeling through my feet
It’s cause I don’t need to speak it out
I don't need to speak it out
Though life’s a roller coaster we got mountains we’ll get over
We'll speak for every war we’ve won
Though we’re not superhuman we got faith and we’ll get through this
Let me show you how it’s done
We’ll sing it out, sing it loud
March across the world our heads held high
Sing it out, sing it proud
Sing all of our words into the sky
We all got sins, they’re part of the world we’re living in
But there's no need to speak em out
There's no need to speak em out
I know you been beating up yourself for what you did
There's no need to speak it out
Got no need to speak it out
I got my own solution, we don't need more air pollution
Speak for every war we've won
Won't fight the institution, I'll throw it all into my music
Let me show you how it's done
We’ll sing it out, sing it loud
March across the world our heads held high
Sing it out, sing it proud
We'll sing all of our words into the sky
