Royalty 03:27
It's never easy chasing what others can't It's hard to be alone when you wanna make a stand You thought that no one would listen to us You said no one would care that much But here we are making our way up We're making our own way up We're taking over all the frequencies Of the radio waves and the silver screens So save your life of hopelessness for someone else 'Cause we're the new royalty, oh, we are royalty Our hometown can't hold us down Our friends will understand if we're not around You said we're stuck but we're breaking out Leaving this city and all your doubt Here we go making our way up We're making our own way up We're taking over all the frequencies Of the radio waves and the silver screens So save your life of hopelessness for someone else 'Cause we're the new royalty, oh, we are royalty

True Love 03:15
High school was so much easier than this Getting beat up in the school yard Being someone no one would ever miss 'Til that blue-eyed girl, the one I thought I could never have Would be the only one who would wanna take my hand All I ever wanted was you inside my bed But now I'm chasing you around with an axe And I'll murder you instead The closer that she gets, I start to figure it out The wooden cabin would be best You can't take my heart without blood on that dress No one will find my damsel in distress I'm nervous, kinda like sweating blood The dumb sh*t we do all for true love She makes my voice weak And now I can't speak I'm nervous kinda like sweating blood I'll never be the one to step it up She makes my voice weak And now I can't speak I promise this will be my last one I've learned from my mistakes hun, No rational thought in me When you're struggling to break free Now I've got you at a loaded gun When you hear me come you better run There's no getting away from me You know I'm taking you out girl You're not making it out girl All I ever wanted was you inside my bed But now I'm chasing you around with an axe And I'll murder you instead The closer that she gets, I start to figure it out The wooden cabin would be best You can't take my heart without blood on that dress No one will find my damsel in distress I'm nervous, kinda like sweating blood The dumb sh*t we do all for true love She makes my voice weak And now I can't speak I'm nervous kinda like sweating blood I'll never be the one to step it up She makes my voice weak And now I can't speak All I ever wanted was you inside my bed But now I'm chasing you around with an axe And I'll murder you instead I'm nervous, kinda like sweating blood The dumb sh*t we do all for true love She makes my voice weak And now I can't speak I'm nervous kinda like sweating blood I'll never be the one to step it up She makes my voice weak And now I can't speak I'm nervous, kinda like sweating blood The dumb sh*t we do all for true love She makes my voice weak And now I can't speak I'm nervous kinda like sweating blood I'll never be the one to step it up She makes my voice weak And now I can't speak

It's officially the longest I've been From the ground this time And I'm getting excited On my way to see your hometown I won't be long I hope nothing's going wrong Ignore the warning signs Yeah f**k your seatbelt lights Engage the hazards screaming Mayday tonight It's a plane crash, epiphany The tunnel vision to a golden dream Can't get a reading on the people sitting next to me Are they all thinking the same thing that I'm thinking We're going down - is this real or in my dreams? Is this real or in my dreams? Is this real or in my dreams? I haven't seen you, last summer in the rear-view But we've been texting I was coming to see you Got a seat on the next flight out and This would be the one that goes down and Running out of liquor to calm my nerves Ignore the warning signs Yeah f**k your seatbelt lights Engage the hazards screaming Mayday tonight It's a plane crash, epiphany The tunnel vision to a golden dream Can't get a reading on the people sitting next to me Are they all thinking the same thing that I'm thinking We're going down - is this real or in my dreams? Is this real or in my dreams? Is this real or in my dreams? I can't breathe, because next to me She's been sitting quietly (watching a movie) Now she's leaning in, I know what it means We're not going down (without bringing the party) I can't breathe, because next to me She's been sitting quietly (watching a movie) But now she's leaning in, I know what it means We're not going down (without bringing the party) It's a plane crash, epiphany The tunnel vision to a golden dream Can't get a reading on the people sitting next to me Are they all thinking the same thing that I'm thinking We're going down - is this real or in my dreams? Is this real or in my dreams? This is real, not in my dreams

In a parallel universe you are mine So today I start my journey through space and time To find you Baby I'll find you I'll kill off the alternate version of me And you'll never even know the reality I'll bury him You won't remember him I'm crossing dimensions at the speed of light And I'm diving through wormholes just to be by your side Cause in a parallel life you are mine Cause in a parallel universe We're together - sing! Na, na, na Na na na, na na Na, na, na Na na na, na na-ah I've sailed the solar winds of a thousand worlds But there's no sign of my favourite girl I'm losing hope I just can't let go I know when I find you it'll be alright I've just gotta make it to your timeline I'll be home soon Bringing you Chinese food I'm crossing dimensions at the speed of light And I'm diving through wormholes just to be by your side Cause in a parallel life you are mine Cause in a parallel universe We're together - sing! Na, na, na Na na na, na na Na, na, na Na na na, na na-ah I think I'm almost there Not too long - just another light year I'm so close I can feel you Engine running low on jet fuel If I could make it to the next moon Your world would be in my view Stomach's turning don't think I'll make it Stranded here on a lonely spaceship Crossing space and time To be by your side Crossing space and time To be by your side It's not too late for us to find our Not too late for us to find our Too late for us to find our Way back home

Solid Ground 03:33
Fight me Any day of the week My friends Got my back so we Are taking on the world I'm not what you thought But through all the times we fought Oh how I've changed and I've changed for the better You won't break my pride I'll carry on and smile Take what you want You'll never bring me Down, I won't stop I'll keep climbing Take what you want You'll never break me Make me feel like Life's not worth living I never thought you'd see me like this So fragile and weak and foolish It took everything I've got If only you could see me now You might even be a little proud To know I'm everything that you're not You won't break my pride I'll carry on and smile Take what you want You'll never bring me Down, I won't stop I'll keep climbing Take what you want You'll never break me Make me feel like Life's not worth living Fight me Any day of the week My friends Got my back so we Fight me We're taking on the world Take what you want You'll never bring me Down, I won't stop I'll keep climbing Take what you want You'll never bring me Down, I won't stop I'll keep climbing

Hit the Road 03:25
Leave this town behind Find a brand new life Whoa-oh-oh-oh (x2) We'll ditch these dusty streets Find ourselves a brand new scene Whoa-oh-oh-oh (x2) You're breaking the silence I feel it coming on You're getting excited Let's hit the gas and go Nobody will find us You know if we Hit the road then we'll Make it on our own La-di-da-da la-da-da-da (x3) The city keeps us wide awake Pressure pushing down until we break Whoa-oh-oh-oh (x2) I just can't believe That this life was meant for me Whoa-oh-oh-oh (x2) You're breaking the silence I feel it coming on You're getting excited Let's hit the gas and go Nobody will find us You know if we Hit the road then we'll Make it on our own La-di-da-da la-da-da-da (x3) Take me there Over the horizon Take me there We just keep on driving Take me there Over the horizon Take me there We just keep on driving You're breaking the silence I feel it coming on You're getting excited Let's hit the gas and go Nobody will find us You know if we Hit the road then we'll Make it on our own

Say I Do 03:14
They say it's hard to let something you love fly I think it's hard holding on while you're in flight I'd rather be back on the ground while you're in the sky I'm getting on just to find something new I'm moving on 'cause I owe it to you We were great living life by the day but The story never sounds the same on a different page If you want me to marry you, marry you Be your man when I say I do, say I do Baby that's not something I could do I could never be the man for you I'm not saying that our time wasn't sunshine I've never had it better than when you were mine I miss watching horrors on TV And you would scream just so you could be near me But now I'm feeling all the pressure It's been two years and it seems like you're dead sure I'm not ready and I'll never be ever Maybe it's just me and you when we're together If you want me to marry you, marry you Be your man when I say I do, say I do Baby that's not something I could do I could never be the man for you Hold onto the tragedy, tragedy Just another chapter we complete You know we've got different point of views And I'm only letting go because I love you Marry you, marry you Be your man when I say I do, say I do Baby that's not something I could do I could never be the man for you Marry you, marry you Be your man when I say I do, say I do Marry you, marry you Be your man when I say I do, say I do Marry you, marry you Be your man when I say I do, say I do Baby that's not something I could do I could never be the man for you If you want me to marry you, marry you Be your man when I say I do, say I do Baby that's not something I could do I could never be the man for you Hold onto the tragedy, tragedy Just another chapter we complete You know we've got different point of views And I'm only letting go because I love you

Bittersweet 04:19
Well you know me, better than I know myself Show me a side of you, you'll never show anyone else When you step into that ring perspective is everything 'Cause without it you've lost before you even begin You've lost before you even begin We've had enough of the teeth we scream through Being tough is what got us here Hold the crowd with the punches we threw It's bittersweet when you crush your fears Had enough of the teeth we scream through Being tough is what got us here Hold the crown for the punches we threw And throw it up in the air (I love to fight, I love to fight) Start it up, six out of ten, well better luck next time I find out where you'll be (Against the wall, against the wall) Put 'em up, had enough If you run I'll catch up We'll take this to the streets Here we go, up up on the limelight Brighter 'til we burn out One last round It's a knockout We've had enough of the teeth we scream through Being tough is what got us here Hold the crowd with the punches we threw It's bittersweet when you crush your fears Had enough of the teeth we scream through Being tough is what got us here Hold the crown for the punches we threw And throw it up in the air When you're taking on the world Take a look at yourself first Those younger years mean nothing If all the tough loving doesn't get you something When you finally found worth By yourself you'll make it work In a hole you've been digging Big enough for me and you If you catch my meaning We've had enough of the teeth we scream through Being tough is what got us here Hold the crowd with the punches we threw It's bittersweet when you crush your fears Had enough of the teeth we scream through Being tough is what got us here Hold the crown for the punches we threw And throw it up in the air Here we go, up up on the limelight Brighter 'til we burn out One last round Here we go, up up on the limelight Brighter 'til we burn out One last round It's a knockout Here we go, up up on the limelight Brighter 'til we burn out One last round It's a knockout

Bottles 03:24
It was so blatant, you were so tactless Smiles and kisses had us fooled for only a minute And now we’re waiting for your first mistake Best you believe you won’t be making another You’re like an angel until he got you undressed Now you’re the bruise that’s surfaced and we can’t get rid of it What can we say though, you’ve got him under your spell You’re a witch but worse yeah you are something else And I said you’re only making me smile She said that she can stay for a while I can’t give you a ring But I can sing for just about anything Lay down on my roof And rest your eyes in my shirt I’ll lay down next to you I’ve got a feeling that you’re hurting Hurting for a little bit of conversation While we’re staring up up at the constellations Open up the beers and forget the bars Cause it’s you and me baby throwing bottles at the stars If you play your cards right you might leave with a chance And you’re praying all night for some secret thing I don’t mind making this seem effortless Lie down with your lies and maybe I don’t sleep I hope your feet are quicker than your lips You’re a witch but worse, you are something else Lay down on my roof And rest your eyes in my shirt I’ll lay down next to you I’ve got a feeling that you’re hurting Hurting for a little bit of conversation While we’re staring up up at the constellations Open up the beers and forget the bars Cause it’s you and me baby throwing bottles at the stars Lay down on my roof And rest your eyes in my shirt I’ll lay down next to you I’ve got a feeling that you’re hurting Hurting for a little bit of conversation While we’re staring up up at the constellations Open up the beers and forget the bars Cause it’s you and me baby throwing bottles at the stars

Move 03:17
I'm a few steps short of a heart attack Lock me up, an arrest of the cardiac I need somebody to save me from myself So come running, so come running I'm working myself into a state Blood pressure's rising through my veins How long can I spend everyday, just the same, never changing Steady elevating my age I guess I've never even thought about what I'd do When I was as old as you I guess I'd never even figured out that I knew Nothing of any use Now I'm a little bit crazy 'cause I'm breaking Everything I held onto I guess it's now or never baby, I'm fading It's time to make a move Make a move Even if I wanted to You put your heart out, a second to late You've gone to far now - can you find a way Can you make a change To live out your days I guess I've never even thought about what I'd do When I was as old as you I guess I'd never even figured out that I knew Nothing of any use Now I'm a little bit crazy 'cause I'm breaking Everything I held onto I guess it's now or never baby, I'm fading It's time to make a move Make a move It's time to make a move while everybody's on another point of view Step back if you hate the way you groove and every other day is a wasted move This time, it's time to make a move while everybody's on another point of view Step back if you hate the way you groove and every other day is a wasted move It's time to make a move while everybody's on another point of view Step back if you hate the way you groove and every other day is a wasted move This time, it's time to make a move while everybody's on another point of view Step back if you hate the way you groove and every other day is a wasted move

Dawning 03:33
A dark lit room, a single flame Writing letters to a past that I can't escape I know that I'm the one to blame For getting caught up in my own mistakes To what we left behind, crept out in the night Frozen windows under back porch light As we get closer to end Getting on, getting hard to find the strength Coming up, coming on to the fight within We'll keep fighting Whole world at my feet, so hold on to me An entire lifetime, in a single heartbeat It's hard letting go of everything you know So set yourself free in a single heartbeat A leap of faith, a promise made To myself, that I'd break away I've gotta get up of the ground I'm not about to let the whole world drown Out of the dark we came, stand in the light of day On top of broken dreams we'll be fine again As we get closer to end Getting on, getting hard to find the strength Coming up, coming on to the fight within We'll keep fighting Whole world at my feet, so hold on to me An entire lifetime, in a single heartbeat It's hard letting go of everything you know So set yourself free in a single heartbeat Whole world at my feet, so hold on to me An entire lifetime, in a single heartbeat It's hard letting go of everything you know So set yourself free in a single heartbeat Whole world at my feet, so hold on to me An entire lifetime, in a single heartbeat It's hard letting go of everything you know So set yourself free in a single heartbeat
