Release Me
It’s midnight
And I’m stranded on the highway
Ain’t nobody going my way
As I shiver in the cold
If I had your number
You know that I would call you
And you could come & get me
And take me home
But I don’t know where you are
But I’m sure you’re not thinking about me
You’re probably in her arms
And that all you see
I don’t care if you love her
I care if she loves you
Oh no
Because before you brought my heart
There’s one thing you forgot to do
You didn’t release me
Release me from the grips of your love
You didn’t release me
So I could walk away untouched
But this crying after you
And trying to do
Anything
To get you back
Release me
From your love
I’m so tired
Of waiting for help to come
And this crying
You know
It doesn’t help me none
But a little of your love
Would get me going
And stop these bitter tears from flowing
From my eyes
But deep inside
I know
That I don’t know where you are
But I’m sure you’re not thinking about me
You’re probably in her arms
And that all you see
But this crying after you
And trying to do
Anything
To get you back
Release me
From your love
You didn’t release me
Release me from the grips of your love
You didn’t release me
So I could walk away untouched
But this crying after you
And trying to do
Anything
To get you back
Release me
From your love
Release Me
From your love
Release me

Anthem
LIfe on the outskirts
Living on your nerves
Really wears you down
Missing the message
Lost in depression
Trying to turn around
NIghtly transmission
Stir my ambitions
Gonna bust this town
And on the corner
Someone is morning
A life lost to fate
Can’t stop the grieving
The fear or the bleeding
And I’m not gonna wait
They think they’ve trapped me
But this life won’t stop me
I will not fade away
WIll not fade away
I make the choice to survive
I make the choice to survive
I make the choice to survive
I make the choice to survive
I can't slow down
I can’t slow down
I won’t slow down
I won’t slow down
I make the choice to survive
I make the choice to survive
I make the choice to survive
I make the choice to survive
I will survive

If You Break Her Heart

If You Break Her Heart
You’ve been scheming
To break up your love affair
I see you dreaming
So much that you’re not even there
Cool your fire
Before the truth bares
Cause you know she really loves you
It’s gonna break her heart
Break her heart
It’s been so easy
Playing the dutiful spouse
Now you take it in
But never ever put it out
You cover your trails
With the lies you spout
You are her desire
It’s gonna break her heart
You know Break her heart
If it means that much to you
To be a free man
Why don’t you just walk away
You don’t have to make a stand
Cause you never really loved her
And she’s gonna find out
And if you don’t leave
Then boy she’ll kick you out
She’ll kick your ass out baby
You think of leaving
But you don’t want to give her up
In the evening
You pretend that she’s enough
You close your eyes
And you see yourself flying
But do you ever see her
When she’s crying
If you break her heart you will never ever love again

Torn Apart
You will
You won’t
You get me started
And then you don’t
What kind of game
Baby
Are you playing with me
If you lead me on
You better be strong
Get out of my way
Baby
Or you’ll be torn apart
Torn apart
Torn wide open
Come on baby
Will or won’t you
You’ve blown my mind
Now you want my heart
Torn Apart
Torn wide pen
This ain’t no flame
That you’re stoking
Get out of my way
Baby
Or you’ll be Torn Apart
Another day
Of trying to get in my head
Baby you need to learn
I don’t play
If this is real
I got to know
How you feel
Cause trusting love
Has got me
Torn Apart
Torn apart
Torn wide open
Come on baby
Will or won’t you
You’ve blown my mind
Now you want my heart
Torn Apart
Torn wide pen
This ain’t no dream
That you’re stroking
Get out of my way
Baby
Keep going around
In circles in my mind
Looking for a past
I’ll never find
Let that behind
And the things that couldn’t be
Left me broken
On my knees
So I’m telling you
And you need to hear
Torn apart
Torn wide open
Come on baby
Will or won’t you
You’ve blown my mind
Now you want my heart
Torn Apart
Torn wide pen
This ain’t no flame
That you’re stoking
Get out of my way
Baby
Or you’ll be Torn Apart
