Lyrics: Mike Palm all i want is to be mesmerized and you know what does those things to me hypnotized? look deep into my eyes look deep into my eyes and you will see that i'm the one who walks the tightrope up above the heads of many who would love to see me fall but when i'm feeling right, the music never stops i'm breaking bones, but i can feel no pain at all - i know that this is all i need - this is all that i desire i'll tell you this - i'm coming right down to the wire again this is all i need - and this is all i need to know i'll be lost until the music takes control it seems to me there must be more to life you know than racing up and down these dead end streets i've got to try - out here it's do or die and i'll be leaving nothing incomplete this is all i need - this is all that i desire i'll tell you this - i'm coming right down to the wire again this is all i need - and this is all i need to know i'll never stop until the music takes control

Lyrics: Mike Palm you know you don't have time to sit around waiting for the perfect chance to come your way and you'll never find the answers to the questions you ask by listening to what other people say you've got to let originality be your inspiration you know plagiarism is a crime (dexter!) even if it turns out to be a miserable disaster you will live to try another time - that's why i say make up your mind and do what you want to do well you've got to be joking, if you say your thoughts have fallen into someone else's hands and you've got to be crazy, if you think your life is just a mess of threats and tough demands well you just can't be that far away from what you want to think that nothing's gonna get you there 'cuz the truth is you were born with everything you need no you don't have to be a billionaire all you have to do is make up your mind and do what you want to do if you're gonna do it, do it right! (solo) in the end your gonna see that it was worth your time the results are gonna make you smile there's really nothing to it, if you use your head and concentrate for just a little while all it takes is just a twist of your wild imagination new ideas will come tumbling out can you feel the time slipping? don't keep the world waiting listen up, if you can hear me shout make up your mind and do what you want to do

Lyrics: Mike Palm it was something you said about the way it goes that was making me think, "i'm jamming the controls" i need something to help me see how fast i'm moving now i can see it all clear, but i don't know why 'cuz i know in my mind, i've got to try my luck i've got nothing left to lose now i'm watching my whole life flash before my eyes i can picture myself on the edge of a desert plain it's the sound of my voice through the force of the wind and rain as i open my eyes i can now see the sky transform i'm looking into the eye of the electric storm i've got cranked into overdrive that's all that's keeping me alive i need more than couple thousand volts to keep the thunder rolling now i'm hoping these clouds won't dissipate and i'm praying to god that it's not too late i've got to make my way up to the top to the place where the lightening bolts come crashing down now i'm standing up tall with my hands reaching towards the sky i'll be searching for something more until the day i die the rain on my face feels cold but the wind is warm i'm in shock from the raging power of the electric storm

Lyrics: Mike Palm could it be that you were hoping something new would change your life? a different view of things that mattered long ago and if you had your way would everything be like it was before? could it be that you would never ask for more? i know that i'd never last a day without you i wouldn't last a day without you would it be too much to ask if we could save a little time? it's such a precious thing that seems so hard to find and if we get the chance let's hope that you and i won't change our minds we'll twist and tangle as our destinies unwind i know that i wouldn't last a day without you i couldn't find my way without you i don't know what to say without you i wouldn't last a day without you i look into into sun - am i the only one that doesn't see the future anymore? you wouldn't last a day i will not go away and in the end there will be no long goodbye

Lyrics: Mike Palm i propose that we devise a plan down to every last detail - we cannot fail 'cuz the only thing that's standing in our way is disastrous betrayal so let the driving force prevail now i'm falling back on all the dreams we left behind it's a lesson that i never thought i'd learn tonight i'm gonna sacrifice something i really love feel it melt into my hands and let it burn - all night long ever since the day it all began massive walls surrounding me - on every side now i hear a crash - they all come tumbling down as memories collide - i'm living for that wild ride could it be that i've forgotten what i came here for? when i leave this world, i never will return i know the only way for me to save my soul tonight is to light the midnight lamp and let it burn - all night long what can i say? you know what it means to me i would kill to be where i belong i know this thing could live endlessly but i can hear them saying "better let it all go up in flames"

Lyrics: Brent Liles/Mike Palm when you and i first began we always gave each other a hand never did i expect to see that all our love would fade away i need time to pick up all the bits and pieces of these broken dreams tell me what i'm going through lets get away for a day or two send some money - send some fame without you it won't be the same i need time to pick up all the bits and pieces of these broken dreams well i guess that you might say that we've come a long long way but i say it's too soon to tell if our scheme will win or fail so get the toolbox out it's time to find a way to fix these broken dreams i need time to find a way a way to fix these broken dreams tell me what i'm going through i just can't shake these broken dreams take these shattered bits and pieces of these scattered broken dreams get the toolbox out because it's time to fix these broken dreams

Lyrics: Mike Palm ( voice of evel knievel: " i've got to tell you, that you are the last people in the world who will see me jump, because i will never, ever, ever jump again. i am through." ) i believe that every inch of smooth cement upon this earth is sacred that he who sees it blur beneath his feet will always be one step ahead i can see the only way that we can change our future is to brainwash and manipulate the minds of those who draw the lines that form the city scapes what moves beyond these walls won't get far without abusing all the laws i'll tell you why we are unsafe at any speed you're lost, now shut your eyes get ready for another big surprise all at once you're blinded by the flashing lights a blessing in disguise every time you stop to think you waste another precious moment and every time you draw another breath you're one breath closer to the end somehow i'll survive - i've got to live `cuz that's the only thing that makes me feel alive we are unsafe at any speed ( voice of announcer at gary wells jump: " ninety miles an hour - he's up! 22 year old gary wells. he's missed it! he's in trouble! he's in trouble! he's down! he's hurt! my god - he's not even moving!" )

Lyrics: Mike Palm let me remind you all again that there is never any room for any doubt i feel it in my heart, i shout it out and if i decide to change my ways it's not because i've found the latest craze it's just that i've got more to lose this time you know that you can count on one thing i would never let you down as crazy as this world may seem the thing that keeps it spinning `round is always there so close and yet so far and you can believe it's true a reason behind everything i do a twist that makes it different every time there are those who say "it's all been done" there's nothing stopping us from having fun and that's why i'll be coming `round again you know that you can count on one thing i would never let you down as crazy as this world may seem the thing that keeps it spinning `round is always there so close and yet so far... ...away - but it gets a little closer every day and i will hold it in my hand before i die you know there isn't any way that we can lose and you don't have to be confused by hollow words that never mean a thing when tragic things keep happening to everyone around you you don't have to be the same this is the song that begs to set you free a sparkle in the night when we come face to face don't close your eyes don't ever turn away because the only way you'll ever know is if you ever really try so find out for yourself then you won't ever have to wonder why as crazy as this world may seem the thing that keeps it spinning `round is you because you're always there so close and yet so far always spinning around you're always there - so close and yet so far always there so far

Lyrics: Mike Palm i feel alright - that's what it's all about the truth is going to blow your mind without a doubt let me tell you a tale - a story so bizarre and yet it's true - they pulled the plug but it's not over yet i've still got my guitar no time to waste - no secrets to reveal no lie `cuz this is it i'm telling you exactly how i feel the truth should never be concealed nothing stops the spinning wheel i'm freaking out - i know it sounds absurd but i've got to put my life out on the line with every word i'm at the top - i'm eighteen stories high i'm on the edge - but i'm not gonna to fall you know i've got to live before i die i'm breaking out - through walls of solid steel i'm only gonna say it once so listen close - now here's the deal the truth should never be concealed this is live and this is real

Lyrics: Mike Palm (i can change anything) you're all alone - just staring at the phone as if you're reaching out to dial my number i hear your voice - i hear you call my name you know i only want to change your destiny you know - you belong to me hang up and then - it rings again this time i know it's you - no, i won't answer unplug the phone - i want it to be known i need a chance to cause a new catastrophe you know - you belong to me

Lyrics: Mike Palm it's like a form of addiction it's a fear that i just can't hide although it seems like a gift from god it's a pain that i feel inside i know i've got to move quickly and i know i've got to do it right always feeling reckless always searching day and night `cuz i just can't seem to get enough i've tried - but it's just no use i just can't seem to get enough i've tried - but i just can't take any more abuse let me tell you something if i could, you know i'd sell my soul every time i hear that sound you know i lose all self control sometimes i feel like a hero doomed to die in a raging war sometimes it seems like it's over but i know there's got to be more
