Mind Games

Tell me what's the issue
You don't have to lie
There's something goin on
There's something goin down
Tell me what's the problem
Can we compromise?
I see it in your features
I see it in you eyes
It's those mind games
You're playing with me
Waiting for reactions
What'll it be?
It's those mind games
You're trying to play
But I don't think you're ready
For what I have to say
You always have a bone
To pick with me
Every little thing I do
Offends you in some way
Not one day passes you by
When I'm not in your watchful eye
It's those mind games
You're playing with me
Waiting for reactions
What'll it be?
It's those mind games
You're trying to play
But I don't think you're ready
For what I have to say
Just when I thought
That it was all ok
Looks like I messed up
Now there's hell to pay
Not one day passes you by
When I'm not in your watchful eye
It's those mind games
You're playing with me
Waiting for reactions
What'll it be?
It's those mind games
You're trying to play
But I don't think you're ready
For what I have to say
Seems to me
As time passes by
Those friendly smiles
Become a disguise
The one's who are against you
Follow you closely
Watch your every move
Step on you when you fall
It sure is no surprise
I couldn't put my trust in you
Another fake connection
Another pack of lies
Maybe I'm the one
To challenge you instead
Let the games begin, my friend
Let the games begin...
Here we go again
I keep on sliding down
The slippery slopes with you
(Instrumental)
It seems to be
A war within our minds
A race against time
Looks like I'm late again
The time has come
The pressures on
What are you going to do
Make your move
Here we go again
You keep on rearranging the facts
From the truth
Here we go again
Just take the blame
And move along
The problem isn't me
It's you...
No matter what you do about this
No matter what you say about me
No matter whatever makes you happy
I still remain...
I won't play the game
No I won't
No I won't
I wont play the game
No I won't
You know I won't
I won't play the game

Oasis
04:15
|

Take me
Away to a foreign land
Where the setting Sun
Glides off the sand
Anywhere but here
Take me
Away to a place I don't know
Anywhere but here
Show me
The world you're chasing after
Lure me
Away from this disaster
Bless me
With all the loving laughter
Oasis
I'm drunk forever after
Take me
Away to a foreign land
Where the setting Sun
Glides off the sand
Anywhere but here
Take me
Away to a place I don't know
Anywhere but here
Open your eyes
You have broken through
For the night you must ride
With a secret crew
It's hard to see
With the sand in your eyes
In the distance a glow
The ecstasy of surprise
You don't know how
But now you are here
An oasis away
From the life you once feared
Suddenly there's a burst in the sky
The race is on
You've never felt so high...
Show me
The world you're chasing after
Lure me
Away from this disaster
Bless me
With all the loving laughter
Oasis
I'm drunk forever after
Take me
Away to a foreign land
Where the setting Sun
Glides off the sand...
A loyal virgin waits for you
in a crystal castle
With a psychic hue
A softly spoken magic spell
Brings you closer to all your dreams
She will fulfill your fantasies
She'll never bring you to your knees
A gentle breeze
Now draws the night
A tender kiss
The virgin holds you tight
Save me
From this world I thought was better
Lure me
Away from this disaster
Bless me
With all the loving laughter
Oasis
A fantasy here after
Take me
Back to the place I am from
Where the setting Sun
Doesn't kill the fun

Timeless Flight
05:22
|
|||
I've reached the line
I've done my time
No more barely hangin on
Desperation dusk to dawn
Running around
On a timeless flight
No one can say
What's wrong or what's right
All I know
There's no tomorrow
Don't got time
For pain and sorrow
I've seen the light
I'll be your guide
Now that we have broken free
Our true selves
We now can be
Running around
On a timeless flight
No one can say
What's wrong or what's right
All I know
There's no tomorrow
Don't got time
For pain and sorrow
(Instrumental)
I will not halt my destiny
No matter what you say to me
I'm living high and you will see
This timeless flight was meant for me
We have reached the light
Soaring hige
No more barely hangin on
Inspiration, dusk to dawn...

Second Opinion
04:07
|

I think I need
A second opinion
I just can't seem to make
A good decision for myself
Forget about my intuition
i won't believe it
Unless it comes from somebody else
My life is but a million questions
And all I see
Is but a million predictions
The time has come
I need a second opinion
I need a friend to make
My final decisions
Tell Me
What I Want To Know
Tell Me
What I Already Know
Tell Me
What I Need To Know
Tell Me
What I Already Know
Tell Me
What I Want To Know
Tell Me
What I Already Know
Tell Me
What I Need To Know...
I think I need
A second opinion
I just can't seem to make
A good decision for myself
Forget about my intuition
i won't believe it
Unless it comes from somebody else
My life is but a million questions
And all I see
Is but a million predictions
The time has come
I need a second opinion
I need a friend to make
My final decisions
ell Me
What I Want To Know
Tell Me
What I Already Know
Tell Me
What I Need To Know
Tell Me
What I Already Know
Tell Me
What I Want To Know
Tell Me
What I Already Know
Tell Me
What I Need To Know...
(Instrumental)
I think I need

I just can't seem to make
A good decision for myself
Forget about my intuition

Unless it comes from somebody else
My life is but a million questions
And all I see
Is but a million predictions
The time has come
I need a second opinion
I need a friend to make
My final decisions
I think I need
i think I need

A second opinion

Big Boy

Big boy
Is back in town
You don't know
What's goin down
Big boy gonna
Spice things up
Sippin' on jack
From a coffee cup
Blackin' out
And throwin' down
Never knowin'
What he's done
Always making bad decisions
Big boy's here
To have some fun tonight
Big boy's back again
Trolling in
Trolling out
Big boy
Never gonna surrender
He'll never listen to
Opinions that matter
In one ear
And out the other
Nothing gonna change
This two faced mother
His best friend
Is good ole Jacky D
But Jacky ain't the one
That's gonna set him free
I hope he finds
What he's lookin for tonight
I hope he finds
What he's lookin for tonight
Big boy
Is back in town
You don't know
What's goin down
Big boy gonna
Spice things up
Sippin' on jack
From a coffee cup
Blackin' out
And throwin' down
Never knowin'
What he's done
Always making bad decisions
Big boy's here
To have some fun tonight

Deep Down
05:25
|

You
Once had that look
In your eyes
It was you and I
A story of love
But now we see the world
Through different eyes
Deep down
Something keeps on
Telling me to hang on
And I know x3
I really shouldn't
And you know
Something keeps on telling me
To let go
And I know
I really couldn't
No matter what I say
I can't stop thinkin'
Bout your beautiful ways
Oh the glory days
Deep down
Something keeps on
Telling me to hang on
But then the lights trickle down
Thorns of abandonment
Make my crown
Babe
You flipped my whole world
Upside down
And now you run away
From my light
You're someone else's
Sweetheart tonight
Deep down
Something keeps on
Telling me to hang on
And I know x3
I really shouldn't
And you know
Something keeps on telling me
To let go
And I know x3
I really couldn't
No matter what I say
I can't stop thinkin'
Bout your beautiful ways
Oh the glory days
And you know
Something keeps on
Telling me to hang on
But then the sad wings
Of loneliness
Comes creepin' in again
(Instrumental)
Something keeps on
Telling me to hang on
Every time we meet
A new disguise
Something else to hide
Thorns dig into my pride
