Oh Mr. Edson won’t you please tell me now
How did you get us locked into your sound
A super bullet straight through your brain
Left us all here craving
They won’t ever take you alive, not tonight
Hey Mr. Edson can you hear me now
This rumblin’ noise wakin’ up from the south
The globe is crackin’ from the tooth to the grain
Can you keep those monsters shaking?
We can dream as loud as you are
This world always needs another super-star (yes you are)
What do you see in front of you today?
More blath’rin’ fools spittin’ up more decay
Shake enough trees and you’ll get acid rain
It’s all just part of your making
We can dream as loud as you are
There’s always room for just one more star (you bet you are)

Stuck

Open my guts for you to make fun of me
Yes, I live for the pleasure of letting you make me look dumb
Reached out, stripped down naked for the whole world to see
Can’t look you in the eyes anymore, I just feel numb
Chorus = And I’m waiting, waiting, waiting for you to take part of me
I’ll teach you a lesson just to prove its true
And I’m waiting, waiting, waiting for you to take part of me
I know that I’m right, but I’ll fake it just for you.
This behavior’s been played close to the vest in this runaround
Confusing as it seems if still so old
I feel like we’ve done this before, like we’ve done this before
Stuck on repeat, the warning signs gone cold
Chorus
We’re standing on the same old choice
Stuck right here for the rest of your life or you move on
Stalled out on the corner of a deadly turn
Left are the words: A will gets crushed and done,
My will gets crushed and done
My will gets crushed and done
My will gets crushed and done.

Fill My Car

Line up stripes wheels in a row
Stretched out for miles across the road
I tap my fingers and take the load
But instead I fall to pieces
Chorus = And I try...
To focus on what I can mend
But instead I fill my car
With echoes of my dead end
Eyes travel around and ahead
Fear and panic and tons of dread
Try to slow this pulse in my head
But it always falls to pieces
Speed of my fury
Takes one more turn just for show
Cross over lanes, let loose the belt
As my spirit slowly lets go...
Clearing looks like it’s getting close
White knuckle grip on the end of this rope
Trapped in this mix of steel and hope
I don’t make it out in pieces.
Chorus

Liberty

Roads are stretched out for miles in front of me
Taking first steps seem to be
The hardest way to breaking clean
Taking the longest road will make a man of me.
Chorus = I can’t sit beside myself,
When everything’s been laid out in front of me.
Moving faster every single day
I’m chasing down my jump to liberty
Spare parts of broken things to fix
Put them in order hope they fit
Watch it succeed and start to click
So many pieces worn, evolve from need to bliss
Chorus
I know and I know and I know
I gotta to let my spirit show
Gotta show what I’m about
And I hope, and I hope, and I hope
When I’m so goddamn far from home
I break through and change and shout
Chorus
