Tonic – Sugar
Tonic – Sugar
1. FUTURE SAYS RUN
Holding lightly
Words that make you aware
Your head`s spinning
No one knows you`re not there
Blankly staring
Strangers call you a friend
The power you hold
Is a power that mends
You can`t go on
No you can`t even talk
Your future says run
But you can`t even walk
So you harbor
Standing idly by
Indescretions, slowly turn into lies
Your`re half empty
They don`t know how it feels
The power inside
Is a power that heals
But You can`t go on
No you can`t even talk
Your future says run
But you can`t even walk
2. YOU WANTED MORE
Love Is Tragic
Love Is Bold
You Will ALways
Do What You Are Told
Love Is Hard
Love Is Strong
You Will Never Say That You Were Wrong
I Don`t Know When I Got Bitter
But Love Is Surely Better When It`s Gone
`Cause You Wanted More
More Than I could Give
More than I could handle
In a life that I can`t live
You wanted more
More than I could bear
More than I could offer
For a love that isn`t there
Love is color
Love is loud
Love is never saying you`re too proud
Love is trusting
Love is honest
Love is not a hand to hold you down
I don`t know when I got bitter
But love is surely better when it`s gone
( ( CHORUS ) )
I got to pick me up when I am down
I got to get my feet back on the ground
I got to pick me up when I am down
( ( CHORUS ) )
You wanted more
More than I could love
More than I could offer
The harder you would shove
You Wanted More
More Than I could Give
More than I could handle
In a life that I can`t live
3. KNOCK DOWN WALLS
You killed me when you came walking down the sidewalk
Saying everything was fine
Dressed up like a wife of a life I`ll never have It`s so easy to fool me
You can turn me on
You can turn me off
I`ve had enough of that little boy sandbox stuff
Love you wanted to try
For a life you`re willing to buy
I
Knock down walls for you
Cause I need you
You always grab a hold of the ones you know you can change
Just a group of loner zeros who will play your game
Something tells them that their luck is gonna change
Round and round you drag them down
So don`t tell me I`ve gone crazy
You`re the one who`s trying to fuckin change me
I
Knock down walls for you
Cause I need you
I
Knock down walls for you
Cause I want you
Hurt me, break me make me fall
Crush my heart force me to crawl
Show me love is never real
The wait is worth the pain you feel
Life you wanted to try
For a love you`re willing to buy
I
Knock down walls for you
Cause I need you
I
Knock down walls for you
Cause I need you
I knock down walls for you
I Need you
4. MEAN TO ME
There`s an empty place inside that is hurting me
A place that keeps my heart out on its own
A disconnected function of my wretchedness
That keeps me so hard pressed
It`s a place where words are spoken you
will never hear
A broken bridge of lines that just won`t come
An empty lung that won`t give the wind
to speak at me
How far can it be from home
Why you gotta be so mean to me
Why you gotta drag me down just to make me see
You know I don`t listen good and I`m always in need
So why you gotta be so mean to me
Do you think that it got up and left
for good this time
A crowd of faceless strangers moving on
A feeling that you left it all behind you now
That it doesn`t hurt somehow
To know
( ( CHORUS ) )
So open up the book that you keep deep inside
Let the pages yellow in the sun
Show them that you`re not afraid to let them see
How far you can be From home
Why you gotta be so mean to me
Why you gotta drag me down just to make me see
You know I don`t listen good and I`m always in need
So why you gotta be so fucking mean to me
Why you gotta be Why you gotta be
Why you gotta be Why you gotta be
Why you gotta be Why you gotta be
Why you gotta be so mean to me
5. SUGAR
Come on baby get your shoes on
You`re looking like you need a rescue Underneath the southern moonlight
Where only I can find you
We can do it with our eyes closed
We can sit and talk for hours
Underneath the golden flowers
Where my sunshine grows
Sugar my love
Sugar my burn
Sugar may hide
Sugar may learn
I could give a thousand reasons
I could live a thousand lives
I know I would always meet you
Underneath a summer sky
So come on tell me love is glory
Come on tell me love is real
Show me what your heart is made of
Show me what I need to feel
( ( CHORUS ) )
Show me that love is worth the wait
Tell me I`m right
Give me your love don`t hesitate
Show me tonight
I waited so long for a love so true
So I`m giving it all right back to you
I`m giving you my best of silver
I`m giving you my best of gold
Sugar may hide
Sugar may burn
So come on baby get those shoes on
And we can run away from here
Talk about a life we`re starting
We can start it all right here
Show me that love is worth the wait
Tell me I`m right
Give me your love don`t hesitate
Show me tonight
6. JUMPIN` JIMMY (Stronger Than Mine)
Come on baby walk with me
Come on baby talk with me
Underneath the tree line
Oh
Come on baby lay me down
We don`t have to make a sound
Underneath the tree line
Oh
Sister moon`s been shining all day
Nothing but blue skies coming our way
Sister moon`s been shining all day
You know what I`m saying
Ooh ooh Sunshine
Ooh ooh Good time
Ooh ooh You`re mine
No love is stronger than mine
So come on baby make me see
You`re the only one for me
Underneath the tree line
Oh Sister moon`s been shining all day
Nothing but blue skys coming our way
Sister moon`s been shining all day
You know what I`m saying
( ( CHORUS ) )
No love is stronger than mine
Ooh ooh My my
Ooh ooh Good times
Ooh ooh My my
Ooh ooh
7. QUEEN
Head strong and steadfast junkies
All barter for the clean
They all wait in their plastic lines
To find what color means
Cause they all wanna be queen
And you do know what I mean
Cause they all wanna be queen
And you do know what I mean
I spoke to a girl by the backdoor
She said she`d do anything just to meet you
You know I`ve seen that smile before
Just in time for a knee to hit the ground
Little girls
Dressed up like French whores
In velvet paintings
Wide eyed
Long nails
They all wanna live the fairy tale
( ( CHORUS ) )
Did they tear you all up inside
Did they take away your pride
and she cried herself to sleep that night
Cause they all wanna be queen
And you do know what I mean
Cause they all wanna be queen
And you do And you do And you do
know what I mean
Queen wanna be queen
Queen wanna be queen
Queen wanna be queen
Queen wanna be queen
8. WAITING FOR THE LIGHT TO CHANGE
Brazen is love`s redeemer
When you have so far to go
It loves the true believer
For the innocence they own
Life is good Life is grand
When you`re sittin` on top of the world
Life is good when it`s in your hands your hands
And nobody can change your world
I`m just waiting for the light to change
I`m just waiting for the light to change
I`m just waiting for the light to change
I`m just waiting
All my prize possessions
That I thought I needed so
Dragged me down on a razor
With a heaviness they tow
always searching for a love that`s in bloom
it`s a warm and soft embrace
Hoping you`ll never be lonely again
It`s a fear that you just can`t face
( ( CHORUS ) )
Life is good and life is grand
When you`re sitting on top of the world
Life is good when it`s in your hands your hands
And nobody can change your world
( ( CHORUS ) )
I`m just waiting, I`m just waiting,
I`m just waiting, I`m just waiting
9. WALTZ WITH ME
Waltz with me
My love
Tell me what
You`re dreaming of
Hold me now
We can share our love
Waltz with me
My love
Paint your face
For me
Only here
Is where I want to be
Next to you
While I watch you sleep
Waltz with me
My love
Tell me something
Will we be broken down
Tell me something
Will we be broken down
Will we be broken down
( ( CHORUS ) )
Waltz with me My love
Waltz with me My love
10. SUNFLOWER
All I want is to be your sunflower
To watch over you from up high
When the wind blows
I will kiss you like sunshine
Stealing pieces from a perfect sky
Because here you go again
Because here you go again
And they say that it really doesn`t matter Anyway
That it really doesn`t matter
Anyway
I`m not asking to be more than your lover I`m not asing to be more than a friend
I`m not asking anything that I shouldn`t
To bring everything we know to an end Because here you go again
Because here you go again
( ( CHORUS ) )
Cause here you go
And I wanted to be your lover
But your pushing me under cover
I wanted to be your lover
But you`re pushing me down
Pushing me down
Under cover, yeah
Because here you go again
And they say that it really doesn`t matter Anyway
That it really doesn`t matter
Anyway
And they say that it really doesn`t matter Anyway
That it really doesn`t matter
Anyway
Mmmmmm
11. DRAG ME DOWN
There`s a reason why the words got
hard for me to bare
Because within them was the promise of
a life that just wasn`t there
You`re not my friend and I have no doubt
That I finally figured it out
You`re trying to drag me down (x4)
Was it hate or was it hurt
that led you to be this way
Did you want it all for nothing
Did you think that would be OK
I did everything I could for you
Still you wanna run me through
( ( CHORUS ) )
I did everything I could for you
Still you wanna run me through
You`re trying to drag me down (x4)
You`re gonna drag me down
You`re trying to drag me down
You`re gonna drag me down
You`re trying to drag me down
12. TOP FALLS DOWN
He lays down in silence
Killing communication
Any pride is pointless
In these situations
So she`s gonna find a rider
Because she can`t love a radio flyer
ooh you never give love
So the top falls down
Spread your wings and fly away
My love
She said she`s gotta have her freedom
From the one who denies her
From the builder of strong fences
From the one who kills his senses
When you`re sleeping under water
Breathing has no purpose
She said she`s looking for a rider
Because she can`t love a radio flyer
( ( CHORUS ) )
Oh to look, Into the sun
To see the shame, In everyone
So back I stand, From want so near
To be controlled, By what I fear
( ( CHORUS ) )
13. LOVE A DIAMOND
Love a man
Who loves a diamond
And holds it softly
In the palm of his hand
Keeps it warm
And holds it directly
Under the pages
Of his heart`s command
Love was overrated
Love was hard to find
Love was overrated
I would find
Be it true
Or be it underhanded
I won`t harbor
And she won`t crawl
Be it real
Or be it underminded
She won`t harbor
And I won`t stall
Love was overrated
Love was hard to find
Love was overrated
In my time
Love a man
Who loves a diamond
And holds it softly
In the palm of his hand
Keeps it warm
And holds it directly
Under the pages
Of his heart`s command
