Youth In Revolt lyrics - Candlebox

Let's do something we'll regret
Let's do something that makes us sweat
I wanna feel my heart skip pace
Feel it bursting from my chest

Let's go
Let's do it now before we're old
Let's make it quick before they know
A kick-start your heart won't soon forget
So let it go, let it go

This is our time, our season
Our something to believe in

Youth in revolt, our arms the tide
Youth in revolt, we're gonna make it right
Our anarchy of hope, we're gonna set this world on fire, yeah
Youth in revolt, without a class
Youth in revolt, die young live fast
Our anarchy of hope, we're gonna make this moment last forever

Let's do
Let's do something that makes no sense
Let's break down walls, tear down the fence
I wanna rage the bull, I wanna be the fuel of consequence

Let's go
Let's toss these clothes upon the floor
Oh this ain't love, no this is war
This is our right, our freedom fight
We gonna sell it door to door

This is our time, our season
Our something to believe in

Youth in revolt, our arms the tide
Youth in revolt, we're gonna make it right
Our anarchy of hope, we're gonna set this world on fire
Youth in revolt, without a class
Youth in revolt, die young live fast
Our anarchy of hope, we're gonna make this moment last forever

Let's make it last forever
Let's make it last forever
Let's make it last forever

Ooh! Youth in revolt, our arms the tide
Youth in revolt, we're gonna make it right
Our anarchy of hope, we're gonna set this world on fire, yeah
Youth in revolt, without a class
Youth in revolt, die young live fast
Our anarchy of hope, we're gonna make this moment last forever

We gotta make this moment last forever
We gotta make this moment last forever
We gotta make this moment last forever
We gotta make this moment last forever
We gotta make this moment last forever

Sweet Summertime lyrics - Candlebox

The daylight sun makes me wanna feel right
She says lately I've been runnin blind
I've been losing sleep
And I wanna come home

And your loneliness makes me wanna be with you

Too long to come home

Believe In It lyrics - Candlebox

One thing in this world we need son
It's love and patience
I learned more as I got on
Believe in it.
There's something in these eyes you see huh?
There's something in my life that beats on,
You can share in what I know
You can share in all I know

Believe in this
If there's something in this world you want son
Well you gotta take it
But something free ain't ever owned no.
Believe in it.
Was something in your head abandoned?
Was something in your heart, a reason?
You got to keep on keepin on,

I wanna take you higher
Believe in this there ain't no mistaken
You got to make it your own [x2]

Ain't nothing in this world you need more
Than love & patience.
You'll learn more as you get on
Believe in it.
There's something in your head that's reeling
There's something in your heart you're feeling,
Its gonna keep you keepin' on.

I wanna take you higher
Believe in this there ain't no mistaken
You got to make it your own [x2]

Turn Your Heart Around lyrics - Candlebox

Lately I've seen a change in you
Something's wrong I think you've seen it too
I've always known, that both sides are strong
We need to give in but it's taking us so long
I won't pretend you're taking the hardest way up

I've been left in ruins cause something set you off again
Whatever I've done was never meant to become destructive
To everything we both put in

Lately I've seen a change in you
Something's wrong I know you've seen it too
I've always known, that both sides are wrong
We need to believe in but it's taking us so long
I won't pretend you're taking the hardest way up

I've been left in ruins cause something set you off again
Whatever I've done was never meant to become destructive
To everything we both put in

It's always too much or never enough
I can't always be the only one
To sever all ties or relive the old lies
Darling we both know I've been
Trying to turn your heart around
I've been trying to turn your heart around
I've been trying to turn your heart around

I've been left in ruins cause something set you off again
Whatever I've done was never meant to become destructive
To everything we both put in

It's always too much or never enough
I can't always be the only one
To sever all ties or relive the old lies
Darling we both know I've been
Trying to turn your heart around
I've been trying to turn your heart around
I've been trying to turn your heart around

Lifelike Song lyrics - Candlebox

Oh, our dreams they fade away, just like this well worn devil
Left behind on an endless dusty road
And our pockets are empty, they’re showing signs of aging
But we dream on every road through this song, yeah

Oh, our hearts they skip replay, no rewind no direction
Like a feather to the wind as we go
And our lives are not empty, still we want and we beg, yeah
Where we could just live our lives through this song

We're all just searching for love, we're all just searching for a harmony
Are you singing loud, are you singing everyone?
We're all just searching for love, we're all just searching for a harmony
Are you singing loud, are you singing everyone?

Can we tell the truth lies, can we smile through it all?
Slipped into revelry through its soul
And our feet they dance away, lost in all this elation,
All this key to this life in a song

We're all just searching for love, we're all just searching for a harmony
Are you singing loud, are you singing everyone, yeah?
We're all just searching for love, we're all just searching for a harmony
Are you singing loud, are you singing everyone, yeah? Wooo!

You gotta open your mind, and lose the jealous heart
Did no one teach the sharper the tongue, the deeper the scars?
Get out of there, and let your life start
Get out and make it louder, get out and search for your part
It's all a harmony, yeah
It's all a harmony, yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Oh, it’s all a harmony, yeah

Come on now, come on, come on, yeah

Oh, we're all just searching for love
We're all just searching for love, yeah
We're all just searching for love, uhh
We're all just searching for love
Don't let your dreams fade away, no
Don't let your heart skip replay
Get out and make it loud brother
Sing it louder each day
Are you singing loud now? Are you singing loud now?
Are you singing loud now? Are you singing loud now?
Are you singing loud now? Are you singing loud now?
Are you singing loud nooooooooooooooow, yeah?

Come Home lyrics - Candlebox

I watch you fade away
your strength in long echos
its hard to see you through these days
I just want you to know
All memories get lost
we sit and wade through thru fears
I can't remember to forget you
I watch you disappear

Oh my eyes are so sad
And I will always try to remember what you said
and I have always wanted you to be proud of
all the things I said and all I've done
And oh, my heart's so barren
come home to me now

I dreamed of you last night
we're sitting in the sand
an ocean's rushing in
we sat there holding hands
the water wrapped itself around
warmly rising over head
the graceful sunset swimming
swirling through our heads

Oh, my eyes are so sad
I will always try to remember what you said
and I have always wanted you to be proud of
all the things I've said and all I've done
and oh, my heart's so barren
come home to me now

I sat along your bedside light
for hours after you had gone
my head a mess of happiness
all colored in crayon
it's hard to say goodbye
so hard, so hard I'm sure you know
you were grace when I was stumbling
you were the strength when I let go

And every song I sung with you
the darkest to the brightest tunes
will keep you in my heart heart of hearts
as pains they come but soon depart
and oh, my eyes are so sad
oh, my eyes are so said
come home to me now

I watch you fade away
your strength in long echos

Baby Love Me lyrics - Candlebox

You glance away and my heart misfires
Something is burning inside me, it's taking me higher
I stand to break, from bending so far
I've gone from rooted to maybe, I don't want to restart
Why can't I speak? Why can't I relate?
You've got me spinning and spinning and spinning
My knees giving way
So you

[Chorus x2:]
So you said I was the one you'd wait a lifetime for
You held your breathe, you bet your life but somehow still unsure
Come on baby love me
Come on baby love me
Come on baby love me
Like I wanna love you

I held your hand through all your rainy days
Somehow lover, I'm still standing in your rain
And when your days get shorter, and your mind it wanders,
And when your breath gets weaker, I'm still gonna love you
Why can't I speak, why can't I just say
You've got me turning and turning and turning, so lost in your ways.

[Chorus]

Like I wanna touch you.

Them Eyes lyrics - Candlebox

Pour yourself on me, baby come on
Pain me with them smokey eyes
I've been drunk on you for what seems a lifetime
I' hung up on love
I'm surely lost, but I don't even care
Lay your head on me babe
Lay your head on me
My heart a fool to be made aware

[Chorus:]
And as I lay here by your pillow side
An uncovered lover, I simply can't deny
Until it's over now
Until it's over now
Don't say goodbye, no
Don't say goodbye

I can't remember ever wanting anything more
No memory at all
Just blindly walking through your door
Lay your hands on me babe
Lay your hands on me
My love is true
I'm surely unaware

[Chorus:]
And as I lay here by your pillow side
An uncovered lover, I simply can't deny
Don't say it's over now
Don' say it's over now
I can't say goodbye, love
I can't say goodbye, no

I'll never love another the way I loved and cared for you
You said, "it's something simple baby"
But I don't know what to do, no
So scared to let you in so I chased you out the door
You caught me smoking baby so I smoked more
You can't believe how much I hurt baby
Did I hurt you?
My jealous heart was poisoned, lover
Did it poison you?

Don't say it's over now,
Don't say it's over now
I'll crumble, lover

Oh, as I lay here tonight passed out on your floor
I can see it all
I can see what you were waiting for
I can see them eyes was wanting love
Calling me to the shore
It's all so clear to me now you are the reward
Ohh

Don't say it's over now, oh
Don't say it's over now oh

And as I lay here by your pillow side
I see the sun in you, I simply can't deny
Don't say it's over now, oh
Don't say it's over now
You gimme one last try
Don't say it's over now [x4]

Far Behind lyrics - Candlebox

Now maybe
I did not mean to treat you bad
But I did it anyway
And now maybe
Some would say your life was sad
But you lived it anyway
And so maybe
Your friends they stand around they watch your crumble
As you falter to the ground
And then someday
Your friends they stand beside as you were flyin'
Oh you were flyin' oh so high

But then someday people look at you for what they call their own
They watch you suffer
Yeah they hear you calling home
But then some day we could take our time
To brush the leaves aside so you can reach us
But you left me far behind

Now maybe
I didn't mean to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
Now I said maybe some would say you're left with what you had
But you couldn't share the pain

No, no, no
Couldn't share the pain, they watch you suffer

Now maybe I could have made my own mistakes
But I live with what I've known
And then maybe we might share in something great
But won't you look at where we've grown
Won't you look at where we've gone
But then someday comes tomorrow holds
a sense of what I fear for you in my mind
As you trip the final line
And that cold day when you lost control
It's a shame you left my life so soon you should have told me
But you left me far behind, yeah
Now maybe I didn't mean to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
Now maybe some would say you're left with what you had
But you couldn't share the pain
No, no, no

Oh no
Oh no no no no...
Now maybe I didn't mean to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
Now maybe some would say you're left with what you had
But you couldn't share the pain
I said times have changed your friends
They come and watch you crumble to the ground
They watch you suffer
Yeah, they hold you down
Hold on down
Now maybe lover, maybe love
I didn't mean to treat you bad
But you left me far behind
Left me far behind
Left me far behind

You lyrics - Candlebox

It's for you
Only you

Pushin' your pain 'round my door
And I'll I cry for you as I die for you
Is this blood on my hands all for you?

You shiver
And shudder
Recovers your mother
You feel it take control
All alone
Feel alive
In your soul

Come around town
Steal another dime
Take another line
Won't you feel it
Blanket your soul
Out of mind

Come around town
Steal another dime
Do another crime
Won't you get it higher and higher
All through time

Come around town
Steal another dime
Don't you push your drugs in my face
Yes, I feel it
Feeling fine
Don't you push your drugs in my face
Or I'm gonna put you in your place
Fuck you
I don't want it no more
And it's mine
Said this pain in my heart is all mine
Yes, it's mine all alone

I don't want it no more
I don't want it no more
I don't want it no more
I don't want it no more

And it's mine on my own
Yes, it's mine all alone
As I cry for you
Yes, I'll die for you
Pain in my heart, it is real
And I'll take
Everything as it comes my way
Feel in my heart it's for you
And I'll lie for you as I die for you
Pain in my heart it is real
And I'll tell you now
How I feel inside
Fuck you
It's for you

Cover Me lyrics - Candlebox

Cover Me
Cover me
When I walk alone
Cover me
When my stance it stumbles home
Cover me
We'll trip on through the sands of time
And cover me
'Cause I've been branded
I've lost my mind
Lost my mind
But you'll cover me yeah
Won't you give me shelter from the storm
Over me
You fade into the night
Over me
You melt into the light
Over me
You will fear the things I need
Over me
You will feel the hate I breed
You're under me
And you will question my authority
You're under me
And you will lose almost everything
You're under me
You will feel the pain I wanna bring you
You're under me
You never change
Never change a fucking thing
Not a, a fucking thing
But you - you'll cover me
Yeah, give me shelter from the storm
Cover me
Cover me
Won't you
Cover me
Cover me
Don't you
Cover me
Cover me
Give me shelter from the storm
People push & shove on time
I give it to you
What I have is what is mine I feel it for you
You've got to cover me
You've got to cover me
People take & people steal
I have it for you
What I have is what I fear
I fear it for you
You've got to cover me
'Cause I've been branded a broken man
Broken man
But you'll cover me, yes
Won't you give me
Give me shelter from the storm
Cover me
Cover me
Won't you
Cover me
Cover me
Don't you
Cover me
Cover me
Give me shelter from the storm

Change lyrics - Candlebox

As I stand here
I ponder greater things
You're no longer a part of
A part of your lover's dreams
So much for your
Common complications
So much for your
Constant desperation
For what's to come
It's all been written
Down, written down
But I feel that a change is
A change is gonna come
I said I feel so alive now
And you know I feel that a change is
A change is gonna come

As I sit here I'll tell you greater things
You're no longer a part of
A part of someone else's dreams
So much for your
Common escalations
So much for your
Constant fabrications
For what's to come
It's all been written down, down, down
I said for what's to come
For what's to come your way
It's all been written
Down, written down
But I feel that a change is
A change is gonna come
I said I feel so alive now
And you know I feel that a change is
A change is gonna come

Keep on time
Keep on time
You run along
Keep on child
Keep on child
You push it on
Keep on my time
I run around for you
Keep on time
Keep on time
You run along
Keep on child
Keep on child
You push it on
Keep on my time now
I run around for you
Run around for you
But you've gotta keep on, keepin' on

You don't know yet
You don't know yet
You don't know yet
But you'll feel it in your soul
You don't know yet
You don't know yet
You don't know yet
But you feel it in your soul
Feel it in your soul now
Do you feel that a change is gonna come?
Do you feel that a change is gonna come?

No
As I lay here
I wanna fall asleep
No longer,
No longer a part of
A part of your TV screen
A part of your TV dreams
I said so much for your
So much for your
So much for your
Your common complications
So much for your
Constant desperation
For what's to come it's all been written
Down, written down
But I feel that a change is
A change is gonna come
I said I feel so alive now
And you know I feel that a change is
A change is gonna come

Simple Lessons lyrics - Candlebox

Sounds to be where, you want to scream
Always left without, saying hello
I've seen chains that bear less, snap and fall long before you let go
Times run over you sink onto my floor,
It's ok, we've cleaned them many times before
Simple lessons are, simple lessons are, simple lessons are,
Simple lessons are, simple...
Sounds might be where, yeah I want to cry
Always left before, I said hello
He's had days where shades of brilliance, never granted him space
Green shades of painful rains, it's ok, they'll wash away now
Simple lessons are, simple lessons are, simple lessons are,
Simple lessons are, simple...
Always taught you how, drain yourself empty
Always taught you how, drain yourself empty
We're all scarred up from ages of childish games
Yet I've never seen your head up higher
It feels real this time, I see you happy again
Reel in it for a while, oh enough to take my place
Sounds to be where, you want to scream
Always left without, saying hello
I've seen chains that bear less, snap and fall long before you,
Long before you let go

Out Here All Night lyrics - Candlebox

(originally by Damone)

Summer's coming too fast,
Winter's been here too long
If we keep wasting our days,
Pretty soon they'll be gone

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

I've been out here all night,
I've been out here all day
With my eyes open wide
Hoping that you will say
Everything is all right
We can be happy too
If you look out for me
The way I looked out for you

People take what they need
Then they tell you "get lost"
Kindly leading you on
While they're ripping you off

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

I've been out here all night
I've been out here all day
With my eyes open wide
Hoping that you will say
Everything is all right
We can be happy too
If you look out for me
The way I looked out for you

If I sounded insecure
It's because I wasn't sure
You were really there

I've been out here all night
I've been out here all day
With my eyes open wide
Hoping that you will say
Everything is all right
We can be happy too
If you look out for me
The way I looked out for you

You can stand there all night
You can stand there all day
You can do what you like
It doesn't matter to me

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

No Lights lyrics - Candlebox

These city lights sparkle bright in your eyes,
these streets they swallow you whole.
The cat you are, are your senses high,
you’re sensational all alone
They call me crazy to try and handle you;
toys in the attic, unstable, loony toons.
You’ll just runaway, lesson learned the hard way
I sit and wait for you once more.

And I can’t explain
What you hold over me
Your touch it gave me
Such a fever it’s burning free
I’m goin crazy
What you done baby
I’m goin crazy
I wanna run my fingers through your fur mama
Need you right here next to me.

The darkest night it’s hiding in your mane
I pick up the scent of you
In darkness you lay witness to it all
can’t you hear me cry to you
They call me crazy to try and tend to you;
toys in the attic, loose nuts, I’m such a fool.
You’ll just runaway, lessons learned the hard way
I sit and wait for you once more.

And I can’t explain
What you hold over me
Your touch it gave me
Such a fever it’s burning free
I’m goin crazy
What you done baby
I’m goin crazy
I wanna run my fingers through your fur sugar
Need you right here next to me.

I’m so lost in you, are you lost in me?
I’m so lost in you, so lost.

And I can’t explain
What you hold over me
Your touch it gave me
Such a fever it’s burning free
I’m goin crazy
What you’ve done baby
I’m goin crazy
I wanna run my fingers through your fur mama
I need you right here next to me.

Featherweight lyrics - Candlebox

Featherweight in my hand
There's something that I
I need to know
And how is it you can carry all this weight upon
This weight upon your back?

And Heather, life is all you believe in
And Heather somethings that I need that I need to know
Where you've been, in my hope

And featherweight in my hand
There's something that I
I need to show you
This world, this world I've been and where I'm going
It's all that I owe you

And Heather you've always believed and dreamed in my soul
And Heather it's time that I tell you
All that I've known is where you come from
And all where I've grown is what you've believed in
And things that I know and the times spent offering
The seed in your belly, a son you've never known and daughter to me
Life's been the times that I've known

And featherweight in my hand
There's something that I need to tell you that you've always known
You're a featherweight in my hand
And your life seems to change me everytime that I grow
And featherweight in my hand

There's times that I see you and where I want to know
And Heather you've always believed in everything I've shown
And Heather life seems to change me
And where we've outgrown this fence that you've built in your home
This husband that you've, you've tagged as your own
This son that you've had
You've had on your own
And times that I spend all that I know
And times that I've spent and everything that I hope

And featherweight in my hand
You'll always be featherweight in my hand
You'll always be featherweight in my hand
You'll always be featherweight in my hand

In Your Hands lyrics - Candlebox (feat. Don Miggs & Zane Carney)

In your hands you hold the key to my design
In your hands you make believe I'm undefined
I can turn on you as fast as light
Brace yourself I'm changing lives
In your hands

In your hands you hold the need to state your right
In your hands you make me feel forever life
Oh I've found my voice, the strength the fight
The memory, a million lies

In your hands
The spark of you and me recovering
In your hands I'm just
I'm holding on to revelry
I'm just, I'm lust, I'm broken dreams
I'm here, I'm fear, the enemy
In your hands
All we are are memories
Are memories

In your hands you hold the key to my design
In your hands you make believe I'm undefined
I can turn on you as fast as light
Brace yourself I'm changing lives

In your hands
The spark of you and me recovering
In your hands I'm just
I'm holding on to revelry
I'm just, I'm lust, I'm broken dreams
I'm here, I'm fear, the enemy
In your hands
All we are are memories
Are memories

And thoughts and prayers won't heal us or repair the loss
Too many times we've heard the song
And all along we've sung it wrong
We've sung it wrong

In your hands
The spark of you and me recovering
In your hands I'm just
I'm holding on to revelry
I'm just, I'm lust, I'm broken dreams
I'm here, I'm fear, the enemy
In your hands
All we are are memories
Are memories
