Oh No lyrics
You need some time on your own
You should just leave me alone
You knew
too true
Oh no, this might hurt someone
Oh no, our collapse has begun
Oh no, I’m trying to be polite, and
You’ll be alright.
Sunblock lyrics:
It was supposed to be a peaceful day
I was supposed to have some special "me time" away
from you
What’d you think I was supposed to do?
We were supposed to give each other some space
But it’s been 43 hours and you’re back in my face
Again
And my patience is wearing thin
I just want to sit and ponder my regrets
But in every light I fear I might still see your silhouette
This isn’t for fun, this isn’t for spite,
You aren’t the one, you know it ain’t right,
You know that we’re done, I don’t wanna fight,
You’re blocking the sun, you’re blocking the light.

Rebels out for glory
Welcome home!
It's time for all of us here
To have some fun in the sun
With all of our peers
Write a song
Then share it to the rest of the crowd
Let's have a talk after dark
And discuss what we sound
There's plenty of room
For a whole bunch of tunes
They may not be the best
But I'm sure they will do
Because it isn't about the prize
If you know the whole story
We're only rebels out for glory
---
So what'd you think?
If this has been your first time with us
I hope you'll stay and relay
In our musical bus
Tap your feet
And listen to the rhythms of songs
Don't mind the heat as we compete
And the beat travels on
And if you don't pass the round,
Then don't feel down.
You can still release a shadow
For the rest of us now.
Because it isn't about the prize
And you've yet to tell your story
We're only rebels out for glory
-----
Sometimes it hurts
To hear when a friend feels burned
Some would say it's all a game
Until someone gets hurt
But if you wait,
Like any game, you'll soon have your turn
So don't give up, try again,
Show us all what you've learned
From your lungs to your lips
At your firm fingertips
Your shadow could surround us
Like a solar eclipse
And as these bodies of light combine
I begin to see the story
We're only rebels out for glory
(we're only rebels out for glory)
Reflected Glory
I’ve always been someone
Who’s longed for my day in the sun
My chance to shine for all the world to see
Though I tried to fly alone
I can’t shine here on my own
I need your light so I can have
Reflected glory
When you shine over me
In the night I would light your dreams
And just be happy, I can share the sky with you
Don’t need to glow when it is day
I find I just get in the way
And when I do the only thing they see is you
I’ve always been someone who was lesser,
Hoping to be seen
Trying hard to please
My emotions can rise and flow
Like tides in the sea
Sometimes I want to hide
Sometimes I want to shine
I have learned that I shine best
By your reflected glory
(And just be happy I can share the sky with you)

Path of Totality, by Jailhouse Payback
The path of totality is wide
We've been thrown into darkness
Brothers killing sisters
Fathers disowning sons
Mothers crying for their babies what have we become
The ghost of Abe would be ashamed
We're dividing up our stars
So it's just you and me
Crossin' states with no car
Turn up Bruce on my headphones
Get away from this war
Will we look up at the sky,
then say goodbye?
Will we look up at the sky,
and say goodbye?
The sun is almost gone
Put your glasses on
We'll be lucky not to make it
Soon we'll cover up our eyes
And let our boat capsize
Will we look up at the sky,
then say goodbye?
Will we look up at the sky,
and say goodbye?
Will we look up at the sky,
then say goodbye?
Will we look up at the sky,
then say goodbye?
Oregon to Myrtle Beach by Jailhouse Payback
We packed up our bags
And got on that Greyhound Bus
From Oregon to Boise we held each other close
When we made it to Yellowstone
No charge left on my phone
No need to call mom or dad
We're not going home
Casper to Lincoln
You closed your eyes
But I stayed awake
and watched you sleep all night
There's still a meanness in this world
We can't make it go away.
No!
Can we really go blind when the sun goes behind the moon?
Can we really go blind when the sun goes behind the moon?
Columbia to Nashville
Charlotte to Myrtle Beach
We've crossed mountains and mighty rivers
Seen all there is to see
The sun has gone away
Tomorrow will be too late
So hold my hand, let's close our eyes
All we can do is pray
Can we really go blind when the sun goes behind the moon?
Can we really go blind when the sun goes behind the moon?
Can we really go blind when the sun goes behind the moon?
Can we really go blind when the sun goes behind the moon?

On a day like today,
I can't feel any other way
Don't care what people say
It's not in their hands anyway
There's a spring in my step,
I got a twinkle in my eye
Cuz I just met the most amazing guy!
He's got class, he's got style,
And he's got such a brilliant smile
And he's strong, and he's tough,
I mean he's really super buff
He's a hottie, and he's godly,
And he's really really bright
He truly is the most amazing sight!
It's something rare and wonderful
It's something wild and beautiful
Can't really look him in the eye
It's something strangely powerful,
Oh look! He brought me flowers
I think I'm gonna love him 'til I die...
Everything came out wrong
Should have known all along
Just couldn't see the signs
He burned between the lines
Wish I could hide myself
Crawl back inside my shell
I saw myself blot out the sun
Was all I could do to just turn and run
Outsmarted, outshined
Brokenhearted, but still mine
Uncharted, but he can't lie
He's gonna love me until I die...

First song (shadows)
There's a riddle on the right, seems to the quiet sighs outside
double standards Kings and Queens, never better than it's been right now
Medication ,useless work, papers flying through the dark
with or without you
Just because you want it doesn't make it so
magics concentration
I'm happy hiding in your shadows, sunlight's over rated
When you're getting what you want, that's the time to proclaim doubt, confidence
In the meantime you forgot, what you were worried about, her
fake applause for rapid jokes, a gust of wind and then lights out lets go.
animals are weirded out, night time culture's got its claws in us
Wabasha (second song)
What's in your heart? Do you even have a heart to give up?
How did you know these spells?
So much time put into the time you ignore, I'm just afraid of the door
Just a second til its gone, it's never gonna cover us

I was a fighter
In search of a riot
Flicking the lighter
Not sure how to buy in
Not sure how to begin
I tried to be kinder
Tried to silence the violence
To see "both the sides"
But there's right and there's wrong
And there's wool over eyes
And oh we live in such a world
The artists are arming themselves for war
And so we are poking at something sore
Our maladies we've tried so hard to ignore
And we try to let love win
And hope that won't leave us with nothing
and we try to let love win
Did you think that I disappeared
did you think that I would
Leave a clear conscience for you
It's coming out worse than you feared
Suddenly everything isn't
happening somewhere else
You're still surpised
You're still the best liar you know
You won’t eclipse me
And if you try
It’s just a matter of time
And natural movement
Of the universe
So we hope, so we hope
Only hope survives

Song #1 title: "Be Kind" (sung by Melissa Phillips)
Try to be kind
We are family to each other
Everyone here is a sister or a brother
We have our views, but it's healthy to disagree
Isn't it great
To live in a country where speech is so free?
Wonderful world
Leave it better than it found you
Don't let any hate
Eclipse the love around you
Blood of one heart
Siblings from separate shores
Searching for keys
That could be opening all of the doors
Try to be kind
Try to be kind
Song #2 title: "Call Names" (sung by Glen Raphael)
You can call anyone a nazi,
If you only try
No matter their behavior
Don't need a reason why
Though some would be demurer,
You know your heart is purer
Which makes you all the surer
That everyone's a Fuehrer
You can call 'em all nazis if you try
You can call anyone a commie;
It isn't hard to do
Whatever their position,
It's to the left of you!
You disagreed on ho-w
To divvy up a co-w
So you believe that no-w
They're worse than Chairman Mao
You can call 'em all commies if you try
Bridge:
And there's been little need
For human understanding
Knowing who's correct
Is all about the branding

Laudate Dominum
Qui solem lunamque creavit.
I know the sun will shine till the day I die
And a few billion years more
And I'll be fine till the day I die
With the sunlight keeping me warm
And I can measure the days as they pass me by
And on days when I can't seem to stop myself whining
I look up to the sun and I see it's still shining
And if somehow the sun
Were to suddenly dim
I would survive through faith in the one
Who created the sun
And I know the moon will turn, turn, turn about the earth
For at least a few billion years more
I know that it will pull, pull, pull against the ocean
And peel it away from the shore
And I can mark the months as they pass me by
And on nights when it seems that the whole world is burning
I look up to the moon and I see it's still turning
And if somehow the moon
Were to stop in its tracks
I would survive through faith in the one
Who created the moon

throw away your sorrow
don't think about tomorrow
focus on the bright side
life is a roller-coaster ride
try having fun
dance around the sun
you deserve to be happy
dance around the sun
fight for the good side
respect each other's rights
we're all equal don't complain
we need light not more rain
try having fun
dance around the sun
you deserve to be happy
dance around the sun
- - -
the moon king will come
and take away your fun
you better run
cause the moon king will come
the moon king will come
and take away the sun
you better run
cause the moon king will come
the dark forces
will take you from behind
when you don't expect it
because you are so blind
it's all going downhill
we end up in the mud
men want to kill
streets filled with blood
the moon king will come
and take away your fun
you better run
cause the moon king will come
the moon king will come
and take away the sun
you better run
cause the moon king will come
- - -
ignore all the pain ----------------they take over the world
don't think about yesterday ---- in a steady rate
live in the now ------------------- before you realize what has happened
think away the cloud ------------ it will be too late
try having fun -------------------- the moon king is here
------------------------------------ darkness rules the sphere
dance around the sun ---------- feeding off the fear
------------------------------------ the moon king is here
we deserve to be happy -------- the moon king is here
------------------------------------ darkness rules the sphere
dance around the sun ---------- feeding off the fear
------------------------------------ the moon king is here
