Come Clean
- R. Johnson/T. Chesal
Woke up this morning
Everything was gone
Left with less than nothing
Seen it coming all along
And when she comes back
I will run away...
If she comes back
I'll turn her away...
Come clean
I'll wash you away from me
I got what I wanted
Now consider yourself free
Come Clean
Don't try to lie to me
Tell it to you conscience
While you live your misery
Build up myself
To want to try again
Promise not to fall back
To the mess that I was in
And when she comes back
I will run away...
If she comes back
I'll turn her away...
Come clean
I'll wash you away from me
I got what I wanted
Now consider yourself free
Come Clean
Don't try to lie to me
Sell it to you conscience
While you live your misery
Solo
Come clean
I'll wash you away from me
I got what I wanted
Now consider yourself free
Come Clean
Don't try to lie to me
Sell it to you conscience
While you live your misery
While you live your misery
Lay it out and come clean
Come Clean

Beneath My Feet

Beneath My Feet
- R. Johnson
All the colour has gone
Nothing left but row on row
Of matching grey
Forced to let go
But the mind is always reaching
It's not by choice
It's not my choice
I waste my voice
On the eternal sleeping
Time can't heal my scars
Are too deep to find solace
In the fact that you might be
Somewhere out there
Have you watched me as I've grown
Are you proud of the paths I've chosen
Everyday wondering
Completely incomplete knowing
You lie, beneath my feet

Whole
- R. Johnson
It's unreasonable
It's not fair to deny me
I sit idlely by
Waiting for some change
Not mystified
No longer longing for you
When I crave
You hate my dependence
I wouldn't break if you bent me
Wouldn't care that you make me whole
I wouldn't crack if this kills me
No one could ever fill this hole
In my soul
It's expired this time
It should take you to miss me
You silence me blind
Assuming you want free
Not mystified
No longer longing for you
When I crave
You hate my dependence
I wouldn't break if you bent me
Wouldn't care that you make me whole
I wouldn't crack if this kills me
No one could ever fill this hole
In my soul
Solo
Not mystified
No longer longing for you
When I crave
You hate my dependence
I wouldn't break if you bent me
Wouldn't care that you make me whole
I wouldn't crack if this kills me
No one could ever fill this hole
In my soul
I wouldn't break if you bent me
Wouldn't care that you make me whole
I wouldn't crack if this kills me
No one could ever fill this hole
In my soul

Just Give Me Something
- R. Johnson
Looks like I'm staying here late
Phone never rings don't wanna go home
Daily compounding weight
Trying to carry on life alone
As if it were normal
To throw it all away
To ball it up inside
Dropped to knees today
Just give me something
Some little sign
Just give me something
To lend me peace of mind
Just give me something
Some piece of blinding faith
Just give me something
Before it's too late for us
How can you forget my face
My warm embrace, that you cast away
Daily compounding shame
In mirror hate, misplacing blame
No it's not normal
To throw it all away
To ball it up inside
Dropped to knees today
Just give me something
Some little sign
Just give me something
To lend me peace of mind
Just give me something
Some piece of blinding faith
Just give me something
Before it's too late for us
Unspoken daggers
Cut through my soul
Exhausted emotion
The lifelessness grows
How could this happen
If what you feel is true
How could this happen to me and you...
Solo
Just give me something
Some little sign
Just give me something
To lend me peace of mind
Just give me something
Some piece of blinding faith
Just give me something
Before it's too late for us

Better
- Rock Johnson
Here it comes again
I feel it creeping in
Like a slow cold death
That slithers up beside me
Here to defend
Each time I bend
And I'll be damned to hell
If I ever let it break me
Nice guys finish last
And I'm your cliche
Walk over me
Use me if make you feel better
Disregard me
Vanished in to mystery
Lose me when you find something better
Cause I'll do it better
First time I lost
Too hard in spots
Selfish with my time & thoughts
Next time I'm tossed
Shaking off the rust
While the third time
Left me blinded by the cloud of lust
Nice guys finish last
And I'm your cliche
Walk over me
Use me if make you feel better
Disregard me
Vanished in to mystery
Lose me when you find something better
Cause I'll do it better
Solo
This time I won't let it drag me down
This time I'm gonna keep on pushing
And buy into my own immortality
Anyone who steps up to prove me wrong is
Gonna come crashing down with me
Walk over me
Use me if make you feel better
Disregard me
Vanished is honesty
Lose me when you find something better
Cause I'll do it better

Grateful
- R. Johnson
It doesn't matter what you think of me
Even though you won't believe it
I can see it when the mystery
Falls in reach to now achieve it
But mind leave me alone
I choose to live simple
Don't complicate my things
Would you cry about the cost
And of everything we've lost
Or would you be grateful
So grateful
Grateful
You can say what you want to say
And not explain the meaning
But with your words you hesitate
A darkness intervening
I know my truth defies reason
And reflective words can sting
Hurt instilled in a little boy
Can leave a grown man struggling
Mind leave me alone
I choose to live simple
Don't complicate my dreams
Would you cloud my thought
And dwell on everything we've lost
Or would you be grateful
So grateful
Grateful
Solo
Would you cry about the cost
And of everything you've lost
Or would you be grateful
So grateful
Grateful
Would you cloud my thought
And dwell on everything you've lost
Or would you be grateful
So grateful
Grateful

Hear Me Out
- R. Johnson
I know at first glance
I'm a little rough around the edge
I know at first glance
I'm not given half a chance
But I just might surprise
So set your fears aside
Put your faith and trust in my better side
So hear me out
I'm the long shot
But I keep on working out
Hear me now
I'm the home run baby
That you can't quite figure out
So hear me now, hear me now
I'm told it's just not obvious
But I'd be great
If you'd just hear me out
Sometimes the long way is better than an open road
Sometimes the implied is better than an open book
Sometimes the unexpected is the best surprise
So set your fears aside
Put your faith and trust in my better side
So hear me out
I'm the long shot
But I keep on working out
Hear me now
I'm the home run baby
That you can't quite figure out
So hear me out, hear me out
I'm told it's just not obvious
But I'd be great
If you'd just hear me out
Solo
So hear me out
I'm the long shot
But I keep on working out
Hear me now
I'm the home run baby
That you can't quite figure out
So hear me out, hear me out
I'm told it's just not obvious
But I'd be great
If you'd just hear me out

Change The Game
- R. Johnson
Make waves or decay
What's it gonna be, is it them or me
Make waves or fade away
Nothing gloried about the downside of bothering
Make waves or fall from grace
Another reason just a fault you've been fathering
Make waves or stay complacent
Adjacent to the time you can't have back
Let's get this on
All on the line
And we're under fire
To all who aspire to change the game
All on the line
And we're under fire
To all who aspire to change the game
Strike me watch me burn
You like an afterthought, branded one time forgot
Fight me but your blows
Returned with lesson taught, standing while your body drops
Hate me begrudgingly more
With every thought, I'm everything you know you're not
Makes waves or stay complacent
Replacements won't save you from yourself
It's now ironed on
All on the line
And we're under fire
To all who aspire to change the game
All on the line
And we're under fire
To all who aspire to change the game
Patience is running out
Defiance is coming
Defiance is coming out
Silence is running out
Liberation is calling
Liberation is calling out
Acceptance is running out
Revolution is coming
Revolution is coming out
Your time is running out
With victory calling
Left with your wonder now
How will it all play out?
Suffer your blunder now
How will this all play out?
You're version's a sunder now
How will it all play out?
How will it all play out?
Solo
All on the line
And we're under fire
To all who aspire to change the game
All on the line
And we're under fire
To all who aspire to change the game

The Breach
- Rock Johnson
It starts to slow...
Like clockwork comes & goes
With thoughts out of control
Does anybody know how deep do scars show?
With every good intention
I dig a shallow grave
And the words don't make a difference
If I don't feel what they say
This temporary cancer
Is why I fall behind today
As I battle here with reason
The future slips away... away... away...away
A breach of mind invades
A calm surreal
In a body I can't feel
In time this mind will heal
And open to reveal a strength to grow on
With every good intention
I dig a shallow grave
And the words don't make a difference
If I don't feel what they say
This temporary cancer
Is why I fall behind today
As I battle here with reason
The future slips away... away... away...away
A breach of mind invades
Solo
With every good intention
I dig a shallow grave
And the words don't make a difference
If I don't feel what they say
This temporary cancer
Is why I fall behind today
As I battle here with reason
The future slips away... away... away...away
A breach of mind invades
