Run the Night
How many times must we hear?
All the news that we fear,
Everyone’s screaming out loud,
Faces too blurred to be found,
We spent so many years,
Doing what we could,
When really we were just
Living like we should,
I know we’ll,
Run the night our way,
Live life our way,
Take on the world someday,
Run the night our way,
Maybe its best to be still,
Never was one for thrills,
Take what you want from life,
Sudden are the stops on the ride,
We spent so many years,
Doing what we could,
When really we were just
Living like we should,
I know we’ll,
Run the night our way,
Live life our way,
Take on the world someday,
Run the night our way,
My arms can only hold so tight,
So break the boundaries on our life,
We’ll be right,
Run the night our way,
Live life our way,
Take on the world someday,
Run the night our way

Be Here Be Well
Light fills,
The cracks in her soul,
Be here be well,
Time kills,
The emptiness of space,
Find it here oh,
The city sleeps on and off,
She shuts it down from all the talk,
The neon floats into space,
Holding strong she dreams of a new place,
Someday you’ll be,
Watching watching them,
Find some peace,
Holding holding them,
Tired eyes,
The thought of being,
Born wild and free,
Vicious minds,
That lead them to the well,
While they drown,
The city sleeps on and off,
She shuts it down from all the talk,
The neon floats into space,
Holding strong she dreams of a new place,
Someday you’ll be,
Watching watching them,
Find some peace,
Holding holding them,
Break and release,
Trying and trying and trying and trying
B. The moment bleeds into two,
The crowd then chants “it’s us not you”,
She holds her hand to the sky,
Knowing that she learned how to fly,
Someday you’ll be,
Watching watching them,
Find some peace,
Holding holding them,
Break and release,
Trying and trying and trying and trying

Windswept Beauty
She’s waiting for the bus,
Was a long day,
Counting up the numbers,
Knows she’s gotta pay,
Don’t hold me back,
Cause I’m never gonna hold you back,
Don’t hold me back,
Cause in times like that,
She’s working 9 to 9,
Week after week,
The only break she’s ever known,
Is her broken feet,
Don’t hold me back,
Cause I’m never gonna hold you back,
Don’t hold me back,
Cause in times like that,
(You waited your whole life)
She’s a windswept beauty,
Dreaming after dawn there’s a way,
A tarnished goldmine,
Waiting on the doubt to pass away,
Waiting on the doubt,
She’s got a kid or two,
To pull her up,
Steps out eyes closed,
Breathes in rough,
Don’t hold me back,
Cause I’m never gonna hold you back,
Don’t hold me back,
Cause in times like that,
(You’ve waited your whole life)
She’s a windswept beauty,
Dreaming after dawn there’s a way,
A tarnished goldmine,
Waiting on the doubt to pass away,
Waiting on the doubt,
B. And is it too late,
To stumble through life,
To find a direction,
To cross the line,
She’s a windswept beauty,
Dreaming after dawn there’s a way,
A tarnished goldmine,
Waiting on the doubt to pass away,
Waiting on the doubt
