Runaway Scotty – Lyrics to Rock My Heart
Change Change Change
I’m gonna break it down
Got a fever in my blood and that’s what keeps it boiling
I’ll never come back down
Of my own free will
So I need you to keep me honest
Abandoning the crowd
Going under with hypnosis
That just can’t be trusted
I crashed onto the ground
Tried to fly away to heaven
But my wings are busted
Fly away to heaven but my wings are busted
Change Change Change
Ain’t always what you want to be
And I can’t see
What’s staring straight in front of me
And I don’t think there’s anybody out there now
Who can keep us from this
I’m melting with the ice
Finding gravity’s salvation
As I hit rock bottom
I’m swimming with the tide
And I know with every wave
I need to give up something
A stranger in this town
Got the strongest inclination
That I’m missing something
I’m lost in translation
No one’s hearing what I’m saying
While my lips are moving
Hearing what I’m saying [while my lips are moving]
My, oh, my
You’re drifting like a runaway
And don’t deny
Addiction to your yesterday
And I don’t think there’s anybody out there now
Who can keep us from this
Here we are
One step o’er the horizon
And we cry out, “we’re ready for this life!”
There ain’t no doubt about it
Here we are
Forward march, forget about the rearview
Now, we’re ready for this life
There ain’t no doubt about it
I’m dancing on the edge
Of redemption and destruction
Can you tell the difference?
This is the final test
There’s nothing to figure out
So, baby, keep on breathing
Pool of Love
Every day she calls my name
Every day is not the same, but I am wanted
As I live this life of sin
She breathes deep and pulls me in
Pulls me closer
She releases waters deep
I dive down beyond my reach
As we’re carried out to sea
As we’re carried out to sea …
Oh, oh, swimming in the pool of love, oh …
I declare my life complete
As I kneel to wash her feet
A celebration
As if I’ve taken my last breath
To commence a final rest
A revelation
Oh, oh, swimming in the pool of love, oh …
One is the love I dream beside
One is the love I can’t deny
All of the fears I cast aside as empty
Lose Control
I’ve been hangin’ onto you
Silent as it always was
Ten years and we fade to dust
Stranded on a one-way street
Tell yourself you can’t move on
Numb your words with alcohol
Touch me and I crumble down
Twisted on the razor’s edge
There’s a danger in the air
And the temperature explodes
Got a bullet in my heart
And a dagger in my soul
Just when you think you move ahead
And the ground begins to shake
Feet are pushed before the ledge
All pretenses fall away
My thoughts keep coming back to you
And the happy times we had
Without a care, without a clue
We’d never find out way again
It hurts to say that I was wrong
But it kills to hold these thoughts
If there ever was a time to spit it out
The time is now
Watch me as I lose control
Hold out, I will find my way
The road I pave is a trail of tears
A thief who gambles dreams away
Sleeping in a bed of fear
Broken promise is my name
The flood is seeping underground
The promise rising with the tide
Pulsing with the sweetest sound
Softer than a lullaby
Watch me as I lose control
Hold out, I will find my way
Watch me as I lose control
Clear the air and find my way
Keep on runnin’ …
When you stand before the grave
It’s too late to face regret
There’s no moment to replace
All the love you didn’t give
I want to kiss away the shame
And mend your broken heart
I will ravish all the tears
That tore us all apart
There’s a beacon up ahead
Take a look around
It’s the past and our mistakes
Burning to the ground
If you wanna rise above
A chance to save your soul
If it’s destiny you love
Then you got to lose control
Watch me as I lose control
Hold out, I will find my way
Watch me as I lose control
Clear the air and find my way
Keep on runnin’ …
Anyway
If wrong is right and war is just
Red is the color of my dream
I twist the knife
I press it deep
But you cannot hear me scream
From the ledge I jump 1000 times
And no one knows
Become a man and serve your time
Someone tell me what that means
Forget your plans and follow mine
Spend a lifetime chasing kings
Shoot to kill and wipe your conscience clean
It's an easy day
Hello, hello
You’ve caught me at a bad time
Someone I meant to be
Is caught in a web of sweet ridicule and lies
So much for breaking free
Hello, hello
I can't seem to find my way
How far you headed north?
I'll sleep in the back
And try not to ruin all your day
And so I take my chances
As blood comes pouring from a raging sky
I wash away defenses
As the universe flies by
Life is an open grave
The devil saved it for someday
It don't matter, she don't stray
She says she loves me anyway
A friend in need is reaching out
And I turn away like sheep
It should be no big surprise
That I just can't go to sleep
Love and faith in me is least deserved
She gives it free
Her rhythm calls me in a trance
I will dance to her sweet drum
I beg for more
While the deepest ocean sinks into my lungs
And for the first time I can breathe anew
And so it is ...
And now we break through fences
And love comes rushing like a waterfall
We open up our senses
And surrender to the here and now
Love is an empty slate
I watch her paint it on my day
We don't worry and we don't wait
She says she loves me anyway
Stop, change, start
Are you alright?
Who me? I'm fine
I've had a silent change of heart
We both need someone to remind us who we are
She says she loves me anyway…
Rome Is Burning
Sinking like stone
Looking for a way out
Over my head
But won’t accept a bailout
In turbulent times
Play a little defense
Truth may unwind
Counter to common sense
If you want to play big
Then blow a bigger bubble
A government man
Spikes the juice in the punchbowl
Sugar is sweet
Cocaine is faster
Gravity’s late
Drink up, it don’t matter
Get in line
Do what they say
Watch your step
Have a nice day
But baby, you know right
So take a deep breath
This ain’t a bad dream
So move your head
Racing out of town
It looks like a fast train
No stops left, wheels keep turning
Boots on the ground
Best avoid the freeway
Don’t look back
Rome is burning
I made up my mind
Just before sunset
Never hold back
Never have regret
Water is wide
Destiny is fatter
Rock ain’t dead
So scream a little louder
If the elevator breaks, my baby
You get to sweat it out
If the water’s gonna rise above your head
Then drain it out
If the weatherman takes your mojo
You’d better steal it back
If you suck it all deep inside
You better let it out
You know the feeling!
Far Behind
In our past I stumbled on you
Called your name and bled upon you
You had changed my life
You opened my heart
One fine day I took and claimed you
I did hypnotize and tame you
In our wildest nights
I took every shot
And if loving you was easy, I’d be free
But now loving you is wholeness severed
Without the means to piece together
You are now an object of my fear
And we’re left without a happy ending
No forgiveness, no transcendence
In my life I have erased you
I have crucified and raped you
In my wildest dreams I have set you free
But the truth is much more haunting
Call my name and watch me falling
For now I declare, “you are everywhere”
And if loving you was vision I’d be blind
So I chased my dreams as now or never
To sell out to fairer weather
Doing so I left you far behind
And I frame the facts and circumstances
To cast aside all second chances
I see your face
I know your name
I am your pain
Reach out to me, you know that I need you
Reach out to me, you know I can see you
Reach out to me, you know that you show up everywhere
And if loving you was painful, that’s alright
We were blessed to spend the night together
You’re free to fly my world forever
Now I live to build and make things right
All those years I’ve taken you for granted
I will crush and break this pattern
You know I will always be here
You know I will always hang around
In my heart I’m always with you
And I sympathize and kiss you
Almost every night I pray you’re alright
In my house I choose to name you
And know no one can replace you so I hold you close
As I let you go
Seriously
I left an old friend stranded on the side of the road and he’s alright
I placed a bomb in the kitchen, it’s about to explode, but I’m alright
I got a dancer in the basement, she’s a live wire, and she’s alright
I made a prepaid arrangement with a gun for hire, but I’m alright
I met a female companion good enough for love
I get it three times a night, but it is never enough
I found my heart in the freezer, I’m still thawing out
I hear my family screaming at me, “We can work it out”
I found my faith in a circle singing Kum-ba-ya, am I alright?
I pack my things in a hurry just to stand in line for some good advice
I play my dues for the drunks at the local bar and it’s alright
I am the first to deserve the right to free my mind, come on back tonight
I’d love to watch you endure the shit you put me through
I am the first to admit I am a mirror of you
Your breath has taught me who you love and who you take to bed
Your hair is growing as the garden wrapped within my head
Oh, we’re taking everything …
Oh, we’re taking everything so seriously
We’re taking everything
Oh, we’re taking everything so seriously
Seriously, seriously, seriously, seriously, seriously, seriously
I left at dinnertime and swore there was no turning back, I feel good tonight
Strapped to a polygraph to make sure I admit my dreams, don’t turn back tonight
Once in a coma and alone, now I’ve a master plan and it’s alright
Once a devil, now a halo, catch me if you can, do it quick tonight
There’s a woman on the corner asking me for change
I said change will come whether or not I walk away
If you look me in the eyes and tell me who you are
Then I’ll undress you in a minute and make you a star
The Circle
Buried in the center of the universe
Sleeping deeply, drugged and faded
Too weak to speak, too dumb to die
Too numb to reason truth or lies
It’s not a lot
Today it’s all I got
Love is wasted, grey and reckless
Truth is a light that burns through promises
Love sends a dove to fly through fire and free me from every place I hide
But I turn away and run fast as I can
Rock my heart until it ruptures
Show me I can still love
Teach me life is not as hard as I once thought it was
Thank you for the hundredth chance
Marry me, it’s all I have
We will beat this in the end
We will beat this in the end
What you want and who you love’s a reflection
Of a seed planted years ago
By those just as clueless
Thinking thoughts just as useless
Who never found the words to heal this before
My world is a landfill, yet still I cannot bury you
My soul is a junkyard, but your presence shines anew
The circle brings us face to face
The circle weaves a sacred space
How you own it is why I’ll never leave
Rock my heart until it ruptures
Show me I can still love
Teach me life is not as hard as I once thought it was
Thank you for the hundredth chance
Marry me, it’s all I have
Marry me, it’s all I have
We will beat this in the end
Follow You Home
Out of the clouds, into the street
Like a stray dog, I chase at your feet
Baby, I don’t mind
Baby, I don’t mind
Caught in a dry spell that lasts half a lifetime
Can’t even tell I’m still alive
Baby, I don’t mind
Baby, I don’t mind
Warm November beginning
Swinging on your pendulum
For a crazy ride
Holding fast to our decision
Learning life is even better on the outside
On the outside …
Pull me out of a hat
180 degrees
She says, “wait and see,
What would you give for a piece of me?
For a piece of me?”
True meaning exists in one dimension
Set myself up for harsher criticism
Baby, don’t back down
It was the best I had to give
It wasn’t good enough
The greatest failure of a lifetime
Is failing to give up on love
I will follow you home to the ends of the earth
Will you meet me there?
(repeat x 4)
I’m heartbreak wasted insane
Music when I’m falling
Laughter when I’m low
Nervous breakthrough
You can cut me when I’m down
On the worst day of my life
I get to love you
Dreamed a little dream a long time ago
Made a little wish and baby, don’t you know?
Baby, don’t you know?
Made a big move a few years ago
Plant a little seed and baby, watch it grow
Baby, watch it grow
Long Way From Home
I’ve got a feeling this could end quite badly
I have the sense that life is overhead
Warm earth and four walls surround me
Migraine if only in my bed
I fall asleep with my eyes wide open
Nothing to see, but I can’t keep them closed
Forbidden fruit brings the worst insomnia
Promises sucked down by the undertow
Slow down, love’s your hideaway
She writes your ticket to all the world
Bow down, thieves and runaways
She gives a blessing to every boy and girl
If love is the answer, I have just one question
How do you mend a heart that wants to break?
Crack me right open and make me your prisoner
Bleed out the apathy with pain
For every shadow is a light to guide us
In every winter lies a spring ahead
I may have stumbled, but there’s fight in my blood
Heartbeat is faint, but baby, I ain’t dead
And I’ve been so long without you
We were young and on our own
Every part of me knows that breaking free
Is an art in letting go
I have held too many secrets
Here’s the one that you should know
I’ll be always true now my heart’s returned
From a long long way…
A long long way from home
Look to the east and you will always find me
Follow the sea, my soul is underway
Our vows renewed and history behind us
Farewell never felt so free
Living without you, a long long way from home …
Show Me The Way To Heaven
I was searching for a reason
To come out of this crazy shell
I was hunted, but out of season
Looking for someone to cast a spell
I was hungry, I was dirty
I’d forgotten how to care
I was reckless
But without warning
I woke up and found myself
I said, “I’m alive”
Could you show me the way to heaven?
Forget the old me for a moment
Could you be here in the now?
And get to know me?
We’re starting over
We are breaking the old walls down
I was hoping that I could show you
The you I can see in myself
And I was hoping that I could hold you
So we’d remember how it felt
Hold the line and show me the way to heaven
I waste my life away, waste my life away
Holding this regret
I’ve burned my eyes away, there’s nothing left
So all I want to know is “which way to heaven?”
Because for a moment I thought I’d lost you
I’m so glad we’re not apart
Don’t be afraid now
Don’t ask a question
Don’t forget the truth you are
Hold the line and show me the way to heaven
