Bloodshot 03:02
Chorus: Bloodshot After what you did to me One shot is not all that I'm gonna need But I'm not Gonna get the drinks for free It took a distance to make it happen Broke me from 5,000 miles away Next time I saw you, things were different And it's more than I'm talking about After what you said, I need a Chorus Nobody likes a broke-hearted tourist And these old streets can tell no lies Next time I won't be asking questions And all we were talking about Was what you were doing to me Chorus

Honey I'm up late again I'm sitting here drinking without a friend I'm thinking about what you said And the way that I read those signs The tv's on but the volume's off A car rolls by another bottle drops I'll swallow my words but I'm never gonna learn my lesson tonight Chorus: And a heart is hard to hold When it's beating hot and cold And I can't believe another lie When he shows and "smoke gets in your eye" It's the hardest thing I'll ever do 'Cuz it's all I ever dream of But I can't seem, can't seem to make you love Honey I'm here, all alone I'm thinking about you and I wanna phone But you're drinking with the band And you'll never understand why I can't turn off my light My mind is stuck but it can't slow down I'd give it all up and I would blow this town But I know I'm gonna stay 'Cuz you know I'd miss the way you looked at me tonight Chorus

Brazen Bets 04:13
Do you feel it? A kind of burning A kind of passion...I'm kinda spurning And all the times I try to find the easy way out Can you hear it? Then start believing I'm not impressed with the hand you're dealing Now it's time to take what's left and walk away Chorus: Brazen bets were placed and No one loves consequences There's no turning back once you've paid out It burns my heart it breaks my soul But I'm all in, all alone Nothing to do, nowhere to go When I'm all in, on my own Can you sense it? A strong reaction And my response to a call of action Gotta take a chance before it slips away Well can you see it? No double vision But there's a way out, out of this prison Now strike a chord and hear the freedom ring

Standing on the front porch Dolled up and ready to go But I can't handle another show She's flirting with the door man I'm amp'd up and ready to play But I can't take this another day I'm singing out a love song She's dancing in front of the stage Then Judy's got her hand in another man's jeans I'm ordering a beer when I overhear somebody say Judy's giving head in the touring band's van Chorus: But all I ever wanted Was you to fall in love with No one else but me But all you ever gave me Was a broken heart and an STD It's time for me to say...go away So fuck you, Judy I will never love you again Standing on the back porch Packed up and ready to leave Why is she always begging me to stay? She's pulling out the pin I'm pissed off and I'm ready to blow But I let everybody know Chorus

All Night 03:05
I walk out tonight, say "This is it: it's now or never" yeah 'Cause this sure ain't no way to live... ...but I know I'll do it again An angel on my left And a devil to my right The one that seems good Is the one that ain't right I'll walk you home If you say it's alright All I wanna know is if You'll hold my hand tonight I walked home this morning And I knew- you're sleeping in with him That thorn of information Twists in my side again An angel on my left And a devil to my right The one that seems good Is the one that ain't right I'm waiting at the bar I'll be waiting all night All I wanna know is if You'll hold my hand tonight Said you wanna give it up But you don't wanna give it up When I look at you I want to lose control An angel on my left And a devil to my right The one that seems good Is the one that ain't right He's with you in the morning But I'm here with you tonight All I wanna know is if You'll hold my hand... An angel on my left And a devil to my right The one that seems good Is the one that ain't right I'll feel this way 'Til the day I die All I wanna know is if You'll hold my hand tonight
