This lyrics - Collective Soul
I'm touching high and convictions strong
You've got that [?] side shade groove like a bomb and disarm [?]
Yeah my piston's high, and your engine roars
It's a tight turn baby that can't be ignored
Got to go, Got to go where this song leads
Got to go, Got to go where this high leads
How am I gonna leave you in a moment like this?
How am I gonna leave you when I want you like this?
How am I gonna leave you when I love you like this?
How am I gonna leave you when I love you like this?
Those crazy words mixed with truth and lies
You're a camouflage trouble right before my eyes
I see angels in blue, you see devils inside
It's a new world order like a service denied [?]
Got to go, Got to go where this song leads
Got to go, Got to go where this high leads
How am I gonna leave you in a moment like this?
Ooh ooh oh ooh, Ooh ooh oh ooh
How am I gonna leave you when I want you like this?
Ooh ooh oh ooh, Ooh ooh oh ooh
How am I gonna leave you when I love you like this?
How am I gonna leave you when I love you like this?
It's hard to settle in when your moving round, boy
Your world lifts you up, they bring you down (Down)
Down (Down)
Down
Got to go, Got to go where this song leads
Got to go, Got to go where this high leads
How am I gonna leave you in a moment like this?
Ooh ooh oh ooh, Ooh ooh oh ooh
How am I gonna leave you when I want you like this?
Ooh ooh oh ooh, Ooh ooh oh ooh
How am I gonna leave you when I love you like this?
Ooh ooh oh ooh, Ooh ooh oh ooh
How am I gonna leave you when I love you like this?
How am I gonna leave you when I love you like this?
How am I gonna leave you when I love you like this?
How am I gonna leave you when I love you like this?
You've got that [?] side shade groove like a bomb and disarm [?]
Yeah my piston's high, and your engine roars
It's a tight turn baby that can't be ignored
Got to go, Got to go where this song leads
Got to go, Got to go where this high leads
How am I gonna leave you in a moment like this?
How am I gonna leave you when I want you like this?
How am I gonna leave you when I love you like this?
How am I gonna leave you when I love you like this?

Hurricane lyrics - Collective Soul
Hurricane's in town
She left for a day than she turned around
Said she couldn't leave
Until the storm she brewed had covered me
[Chorus:]
Yea this day she feels alive
When her head and heart collide
It's just the way that she survives
And nothing's quite the same
Yea she's living for the change
One and only hurricane
Hurricane's so sweet
She offers up a truce underneath the sheets
She changed course again
Shelter from the Lord and future sins
[Chorus]
I'm not helpless cuz she's so selfish
Yea I'm just trying to figure what to do
She keeps running while the world is stopping
Yea there's no telling what she'll crash into
I won't panic cuz she's so manic
Yea I'm just hoping she'll find some truth
Yea, I hope she finds some truth
God I hope I find it too
[Chorus x2]
She left for a day than she turned around
Said she couldn't leave
Until the storm she brewed had covered me
[Chorus:]
Yea this day she feels alive
When her head and heart collide
It's just the way that she survives
And nothing's quite the same
Yea she's living for the change
One and only hurricane
Hurricane's so sweet
She offers up a truce underneath the sheets
She changed course again
Shelter from the Lord and future sins
[Chorus]
I'm not helpless cuz she's so selfish
Yea I'm just trying to figure what to do
She keeps running while the world is stopping
Yea there's no telling what she'll crash into
I won't panic cuz she's so manic
Yea I'm just hoping she'll find some truth
Yea, I hope she finds some truth
God I hope I find it too
[Chorus x2]
Exposed lyrics - Collective Soul
You say you want some comedy
Well I'm not laughing no more
You say you need a remedy
I'm not your corner drug store
[Chorus:]
You took all of my money
You took all of my clothes
You took a little of everything
But it's you who's now exposed
You say you want some sympathy
Well I'm not drinking no more
You say you need some company
Ain't that what cables made for
[Chorus]
You say you need someone to talk to
You got some things to share
I think you need to find someone
Someone who really... cares
[Chorus x2]
Well I'm not laughing no more
You say you need a remedy
I'm not your corner drug store
[Chorus:]
You took all of my money
You took all of my clothes
You took a little of everything
But it's you who's now exposed
You say you want some sympathy
Well I'm not drinking no more
You say you need some company
Ain't that what cables made for
[Chorus]
You say you need someone to talk to
You got some things to share
I think you need to find someone
Someone who really... cares
[Chorus x2]
Confession lyrics - Collective Soul
I'm not a man that floats around
See I'm a man that knows what he's found
Oh no
[Chorus:]
It's you
I want a lover like you
Under covers with you
Stoned or sober
Yea I want a lover
Only want a lover like you
I'm not a man that sneaks through the night
See I'm a man that knows what he likes
Oh no
[Chorus x2]
Won't bring me down
You won't bring me down, girl
Now I won't bring you down

I only want a lover

AYTA lyrics - Collective Soul
Promises, where they gonna lead me to?
I still have wishes, that haven't come true
Well I toss, and I turn and what? This life that can give
Yeah I toss, and I turn and how? This life I should live
Are you the answer, to all I need?
Are you the answer, the answer for me?
Patience, it's leaving my side
I'm gonna circle back to see what I can find
Let the sky rain down on me, all I should know
Let the sky rain down on me, wisdom to grow
Are you the answer, to all I need?
Are you the answer, the answer for me?
I've no memory of this life you see
I'm a new born of your company
I'm just finding out, I'm just questioning
Are you the answer?
Are you the answer for me?
(Are you the answer?)
(Are you the answer?)
Are you the answer, to all I need?
Are you the answer, the answer for me?
Are you the answer?
Are you the answer?
Are you the answer?
The answer for me?
I still have wishes, that haven't come true
Well I toss, and I turn and what? This life that can give
Yeah I toss, and I turn and how? This life I should live
Are you the answer, to all I need?
Are you the answer, the answer for me?
Patience, it's leaving my side
I'm gonna circle back to see what I can find
Let the sky rain down on me, all I should know
Let the sky rain down on me, wisdom to grow
Are you the answer, to all I need?
Are you the answer, the answer for me?
I've no memory of this life you see
I'm a new born of your company
I'm just finding out, I'm just questioning
Are you the answer?
Are you the answer for me?
(Are you the answer?)
(Are you the answer?)
Are you the answer, to all I need?
Are you the answer, the answer for me?
Are you the answer?
Are you the answer?
Are you the answer?
The answer for me?
Contagious lyrics - Collective Soul
Together here we stand
Covered in our rust
It’s just a life of pretend
And that’s the source of us
Oh girl here we are now
Oh girl In between the days
Oh girl here we go now
Oh girl running through the haze
[Chorus:]
It’s been days since you’ve seen light
It’s been years since it felt right
I'm contagious news
And the words that you do shout
And the pride that you spill out
You’re contagious too
Together here we stand
Turning into dust
Nothing to forgive
And no one here to trust
Oh girl here we are now
Oh girl In between the days
Oh girl here we go now
Oh girl running through the haze
[Chorus]
[Chorus x2]
Covered in our rust
It’s just a life of pretend
And that’s the source of us
Oh girl here we are now
Oh girl In between the days
Oh girl here we go now
Oh girl running through the haze
[Chorus:]
It’s been days since you’ve seen light
It’s been years since it felt right
I'm contagious news
And the words that you do shout
And the pride that you spill out
You’re contagious too
Together here we stand
Turning into dust
Nothing to forgive
And no one here to trust
Oh girl here we are now
Oh girl In between the days
Oh girl here we go now
Oh girl running through the haze
[Chorus]
[Chorus x2]
Life lyrics - Collective Soul
Stop with all your pleasantries
I’m riding through what here has occurred
No time left to wait and see
My next breath has never been assured
[Chorus:]
You can’t stop me now
You won’t stop me now
Who could stop me now
It’s all inside
And well defined
As life
Pride leads the course of you
Meant to strike our souls inner core
Locked out once again to prove
That I’ve been through this shit times before
[Chorus]
[Chorus x2]
I’m riding through what here has occurred
No time left to wait and see
My next breath has never been assured
[Chorus:]
You can’t stop me now
You won’t stop me now
Who could stop me now
It’s all inside
And well defined
As life
Pride leads the course of you
Meant to strike our souls inner core
Locked out once again to prove
That I’ve been through this shit times before
[Chorus]
[Chorus x2]
Am I Getting Through lyrics - Collective Soul
My heart does stop
Where my soul begins
I’m not looking to start
I only want it to end
So call in your troops
Call the Calvary
Call whoever you like
But baby don’t call me
[Chorus:]
Well tomorrow shall be better
Or at least that’s the word you choose
But I’ve come to my own conclusion
Am I getting through to you
Lies so sure [?]
With your cross hard facts [?]
You got a reason for this
I got a reason for that
[Chorus]
All you’ve shown
Is carved in stone
The change is good you know
My heart does stop
Where my soul begins
I’m not looking to start
I only want it to end
[Chorus]
Where my soul begins
I’m not looking to start
I only want it to end
So call in your troops
Call the Calvary
Call whoever you like
But baby don’t call me
[Chorus:]
Well tomorrow shall be better
Or at least that’s the word you choose
But I’ve come to my own conclusion
Am I getting through to you
Lies so sure [?]
With your cross hard facts [?]
You got a reason for this
I got a reason for that
[Chorus]
All you’ve shown
Is carved in stone
The change is good you know
My heart does stop
Where my soul begins
I’m not looking to start
I only want it to end
[Chorus]
Memoirs Of 2005 lyrics - Collective Soul
Why can’t I have you
Are you too far away
Is it the distance I keep
Or the words I don’t say
All these days I’ve run like a devil gone wild
Only to end helpless like a newborn child
[Chorus:]
Why can’t I have you tonight
Why can’t I have you tonight
Why can’t I have you?
Why can’t I have you
Now the day has drawn
Is it the love you require
Or the love I have shown
All these nights I'm freed beneath the light of the moon
Just to be held hostage with the thoughts of you
[Chorus]
I talk aloud in this empty room
I’m lost but found when it comes to you
[Chorus]
Why can’t I have you?
Why can’t I have you?
Are you too far away
Is it the distance I keep
Or the words I don’t say
All these days I’ve run like a devil gone wild
Only to end helpless like a newborn child
[Chorus:]
Why can’t I have you tonight
Why can’t I have you tonight
Why can’t I have you?
Why can’t I have you
Now the day has drawn
Is it the love you require
Or the love I have shown
All these nights I'm freed beneath the light of the moon
Just to be held hostage with the thoughts of you
[Chorus]
I talk aloud in this empty room
I’m lost but found when it comes to you
[Chorus]
Why can’t I have you?
Why can’t I have you?
Tradition lyrics - Collective Soul
Its so subtle you into this
It always come back in time
That's when tradition starts
With gleam in our eye
So from where we are now
To where we want to begin
Lets gather up that innocence
and start it again
Lets go down to the river
Lets go back to the sea
Lets go swim in the ocean
Just you and me
All these causes we possess
And emotions we owe
Its just a constant reminder
Of each other we chose
So when we following out
A subject to learn
That's when tradition starts
And love returns
Lets go down to the river
Lets go back to the sea
Lets go swim in the ocean
Just you and me
When conversation fails
And we left it all alone
Lets prefer back to basics
That was there all along
Whether Sunday morning dries
Or late night hangs
Its always always always you and me babe
Lets go down to the river
Lets go back to the sea
Lets go swim in the ocean
Just you and me
Lets go down to the river
Lets go back to the sea
Lets go swim in the ocean
Just you and me
Lets go back [x3]
Just you and me
Lets go back [x2]
Just you and me

Dig lyrics - Collective Soul
Where we've been? Where do we go?
We had no answers to these questions, you know
Where do we stand? When do we fall
We've no direction or conviction at all
Now the more we want to blame
Leaves us more to fix
So hey, hey baby, do we dig on that?
Or hey, hey baby, do we dig on this?
Who do we call? When do we scream?
We're all contagious by these breaths that we breathe
Where do we steal? When do we pay?
The winds of truth, they ain't blowing our way, yeah
Now the more we want to change
Leaves us more to miss
So hey, hey baby, do we dig on that?
Or hey, hey baby, do we dig on this?
And the more we want to blame

You lyrics - Collective Soul
Time, I always need more time
To figure what I've lost, to learn what I should find
Soon, I'm always hoping soon
I'll figure what to add, I'll learn what to remove
New sunrise, new sunsets
New stories I haven't lived through yet
With you, it's always been you
There's never been good days
There's never been bad days without you
Choose, I'm always made to choose
I'll figure what to share, I'll learn from what I've used
New sunrise, new sunsets
New promises I haven't made quite yet
To you, it's always been you
There's never been good days
There's never been bad days without you
Yeah, there's never been a day without you
Yeah, there's never been a day
There's never been a night without you
You, it's always been you
There's never been good days
There's never been bad days without you
It's always been you
There's never those good days
There's never those bad days without you
My Days lyrics - Collective Soul
Got your sticks, got your stones
Got your ways, your means, your wants
Your needs, yeah, you is all you know
Who can learn what's wrong?
Who can learn what's right by your ways?
See, I can say I've loved
I can say I've tried in my days
Got your wish, got your dreams
Got your thoughts, your cause
Beware because nothing's as it seems
Who can learn what's wrong?
Who can learn what's right by your ways?

I can say I've tried in my days
Who can learn what's wrong?
Who can learn what's right by your ways?
See, I can say I've loved
I can say I've tried in my days
Try some conversation
Grab new information
Change is an indication
You can grow, you will grow
Who can learn what's wrong?
Who can learn what's right by your ways?
See, I can say I've loved
Yeah, I can say I've tried in my days
Who can learn what's wrong?

Understanding lyrics - Collective Soul
With better competition
Got a savior, says he's gonna save who
Come together people
Tell me what new habit can we choose?
We're thinking and we're trying
Yeah, we're truthful then we're lying, I'm sure you know
We're quiet then we're loud
Yeah, we're hopeful then we doubt, I'm sure it shows
Do we get a second chance to these answers that we lack?
Or are we guided by the hope of some brilliant flash?
Tell me, tell me how long will this sobriety last?
Who's understanding? Yeah, understanding
To the ways, the means of our own self
We got the sex, the dreams with nothing else
Who's understanding? Yeah, understanding
To the right, the wrong of our own self
We got the look, the pose with nothing else
Dancing to the rhythm
From the knowledge of a hard drive spin
Looking for the formula
That always will save us in the end
We're creeping and we're crawling
Yeah, we're pushing, then we're stalling, have you felt?
We're open, then we're closing
Yeah, we're hiding, then we're showing, can you tell?
Do we get a second chance to these answers that we lack?
Or are we guided by the hope of some brilliant flash?
Tell me, tell me how long will this sobriety last?
Who's understanding? Yeah, understanding
To the ways the means of our own self
We got the sex, the dreams with nothing else
Who's understanding? Yeah, understanding
To the right, the wrong of our own self
We got the look, the pose with nothing else
Do we understand?
Do we understand all the words we've said?
Got a savior, says he's gonna save who
Come together people
Tell me what new habit can we choose?
We're thinking and we're trying
Yeah, we're truthful then we're lying, I'm sure you know
We're quiet then we're loud
Yeah, we're hopeful then we doubt, I'm sure it shows
Do we get a second chance to these answers that we lack?
Or are we guided by the hope of some brilliant flash?
Tell me, tell me how long will this sobriety last?
Who's understanding? Yeah, understanding
To the ways, the means of our own self
We got the sex, the dreams with nothing else
Who's understanding? Yeah, understanding

Staring Down lyrics - Collective Soul
Loosened from my pride
Oh, that monster, he kept me so tight
I threw my aces down
Just to face the here and the now
So here I go again, I want to please
Yeah, here I go again, sweet I sleep
Sweeter I dream
I've been looking, I've been staring down
I've been searching, I've been staring down
And your love is what I found
As cautious as a thief
Oh, but restless with all of my needs
Now I stand before all I want
And all that I adore
So here I go again, I need to please
Yeah, here I go again, sweet you sleep
Sweeter I dream
I've been looking, I've been staring down
I've been searching, I've been staring down
And your love is what I
Long days, long nights
Just blinded by what was already in sight
Now I've found, I've found my way home
Yeah, I found my way home
I've been looking, I've been staring down
I've been searching, I've been staring down
I've been looking, I've been staring down
I've been searching, I've been staring down
And your love is what I found
Oh, that monster, he kept me so tight
I threw my aces down
Just to face the here and the now
So here I go again, I want to please
Yeah, here I go again, sweet I sleep
Sweeter I dream
I've been looking, I've been staring down
I've been searching, I've been staring down
And your love is what I found
As cautious as a thief
Oh, but restless with all of my needs
Now I stand before all I want
And all that I adore
So here I go again, I need to please
Yeah, here I go again, sweet you sleep
Sweeter I dream
I've been looking, I've been staring down
I've been searching, I've been staring down
And your love is what I
Long days, long nights
Just blinded by what was already in sight
Now I've found, I've found my way home
Yeah, I found my way home
I've been looking, I've been staring down
I've been searching, I've been staring down
I've been looking, I've been staring down
I've been searching, I've been staring down
And your love is what I found
She Does lyrics - Collective Soul
Every single word, every single sign
Every single moment captures her
Her motions well defined, her motions well defined
Yeah, she's well defined
Who could light the sky
With no sun, no moon, no stars above?
Who could give me cause
To speak, to wish or believe in love?
I'll tell you, my baby, she does
Way beyond my heart, way beyond the mind
Way beyond the measures one could ask for
For her love tonight and for her love tonight
For her love tonight
Who could light the sky
With no sun, no moon, no stars above?
Who could give me cause
To speak, to wish or believe in love?
Who could light the sky
With no sun, no moon, no stars above?
Who could give me cause
To speak, to wish or believe in love?
I'll tell you, my baby, she does
She does it for the fun, yeah, she does it purposely
She does it for the one, yeah, she does it just for me
Yeah, she does, hey, hey
Who could light the sky
With no sun, no moon, no stars above?
Who could give me cause
To speak, to wish or believe in love?

Love lyrics - Collective Soul
Marching through the corridor
Through faces I don't know
Got sunshine on the inside
But nowhere to glow
And counting down the hours
Pretending that it's time
Searching for the patience
A treasure I can't find
Days try to convince
Faith can cure all loneliness
Wishes wish for more
Wishes that could lead me towards
Love, love is where I now lie
Yeah, love is looking into your eyes
Looking out my window
Soaring through the blue
Something's always nothing
'Til I'm touching you
Nights are always spent
Hiding in life's compliments
And thoughts just thinking more
Thoughts on how I'm yearning for
Love, love is where I now lie
Yeah, love is looking into your eyes
Love, love is where I now lie
Yeah, love is looking into your eyes
Love, love is where I now lie
Yeah, love is looking into your eyes
I've got to get back, I've got to get back
I've got to, got to get back home
I've got to get back, I've got to get back
I've got to, got to get back home
Through faces I don't know
Got sunshine on the inside
But nowhere to glow
And counting down the hours
Pretending that it's time
Searching for the patience
A treasure I can't find
Days try to convince
Faith can cure all loneliness
Wishes wish for more
Wishes that could lead me towards
Love, love is where I now lie
Yeah, love is looking into your eyes
Looking out my window
Soaring through the blue
Something's always nothing
'Til I'm touching you
Nights are always spent
Hiding in life's compliments
And thoughts just thinking more
Thoughts on how I'm yearning for
Love, love is where I now lie
Yeah, love is looking into your eyes
Love, love is where I now lie
Yeah, love is looking into your eyes
Love, love is where I now lie
Yeah, love is looking into your eyes
I've got to get back, I've got to get back
I've got to, got to get back home
I've got to get back, I've got to get back
I've got to, got to get back home
Hymn For My Father lyrics - Collective Soul
I will follow, I will follow
Till the stars fall down, till the sun burns out
I will follow, I will follow
Till Gabriel's horn does sound
I will follow, I will follow
Through the path You chose with the words You spoke
I will follow, I will follow
By the love You always showed
I won't cry out 'cause love has lifted me
I won't cry out 'cause now I will receive
Everything that You've given me
All things to me
I will follow, I will follow
For in You I do believe
I will follow, I will follow
Through the path You chose with the words You spoke
I will follow, I will follow
By the love, the love You showed
Till the stars fall down, till the sun burns out
I will follow, I will follow
Till Gabriel's horn does sound
I will follow, I will follow
Through the path You chose with the words You spoke
I will follow, I will follow
By the love You always showed
I won't cry out 'cause love has lifted me
I won't cry out 'cause now I will receive
Everything that You've given me
All things to me
I will follow, I will follow
For in You I do believe
I will follow, I will follow
Through the path You chose with the words You spoke
I will follow, I will follow
By the love, the love You showed

New Vibration lyrics - Collective Soul
I've got the sun and its seasons
Giving days only wanting to please
But I hear rhyme with
no reason
Spilling words that mean nothing to me
I'm not wanting more
Promises and
beliefs
I'm just waiting for
Someone to hear this heartbeat
I've got a soul and devotion
Giving love and a valentine
But I see life in its motion
Grinding out on every subject it
finds
[chorus]
I'm not running
I'm not chasing
I'm just looking for that old sensation
I'm not cooling
I'm not craving
I'm just living for some new vibrations
[chorus]
I'm not running
I'm not chasing
I'm just looking for that old sensation
I'm not coolilng
I'm not craving
I'm just living for some new vibrations
Giving days only wanting to please
But I hear rhyme with
no reason
Spilling words that mean nothing to me
I'm not wanting more
Promises and
beliefs
I'm just waiting for
Someone to hear this heartbeat
I've got a soul and devotion
Giving love and a valentine
But I see life in its motion
Grinding out on every subject it
finds
[chorus]
I'm not running
I'm not chasing
I'm just looking for that old sensation
I'm not cooling
I'm not craving
I'm just living for some new vibrations
[chorus]
I'm not running
I'm not chasing
I'm just looking for that old sensation
I'm not coolilng
I'm not craving
I'm just living for some new vibrations
What I Can Give You lyrics - Collective Soul
Imagine again
I lean a little closer just to breathe you in
Words are in bloom
They wake me with their meaning and their
Thoughts of you
I can't give you
Treasures that only men have made
But what I can give you
No one can ever take away
Twisting the day
I always lose myself so I can find your way
Promises be
They whisper all the yearning
That I swear you'll need
[chorus]
I've got a long way
a long way to come down
[chorus]
I lean a little closer just to breathe you in
Words are in bloom
They wake me with their meaning and their
Thoughts of you
I can't give you
Treasures that only men have made
But what I can give you
No one can ever take away
Twisting the day
I always lose myself so I can find your way
Promises be
They whisper all the yearning
That I swear you'll need
[chorus]
I've got a long way
a long way to come down
[chorus]
Never Here Alone lyrics - Collective Soul
Had a thought but it hurt
So I let it go
I let it go
See I don't need these verses
Laying down their blues on me today
I'm never here alone
I thought I heard some angel say
You'll never be alone
I know I heard my father sing
I'm never here alone
I'm never here alone
Have a scar, yeah a scar
So I let it show
I let it show show
See I don't need tomorrow
Fearing from the pain of yesterday
[chorus]
I'm starting back where love begins
Gonna get me those blue skies
Those blue skies again
[chorus]
So I let it go
I let it go
See I don't need these verses
Laying down their blues on me today
I'm never here alone
I thought I heard some angel say
You'll never be alone
I know I heard my father sing
I'm never here alone
I'm never here alone
Have a scar, yeah a scar
So I let it show
I let it show show
See I don't need tomorrow
Fearing from the pain of yesterday
[chorus]
I'm starting back where love begins
Gonna get me those blue skies
Those blue skies again
[chorus]
Bearing Witness lyrics - Collective Soul
Another day newspapers say
Life what'd you do to me
I'm always here, you're always there
Hope that's my company
Yeah stars have only so many wishes though
They can't tell what we already know
See I'm just gathering all my eyes can see through
I'm bearing witness to you
I'm bearing witness to you
Familiar words the evening stirs
Life what'd you say to me
I'm promised here, you're precious there
Love you're my destiny
[chorus]
Somedays I surrender
Somedays I resolve
But everyday I'd conquer
With your love
With you love
[chorus]
Life what'd you do to me
I'm always here, you're always there
Hope that's my company
Yeah stars have only so many wishes though
They can't tell what we already know
See I'm just gathering all my eyes can see through
I'm bearing witness to you
I'm bearing witness to you
Familiar words the evening stirs
Life what'd you say to me
I'm promised here, you're precious there
Love you're my destiny
[chorus]
Somedays I surrender
Somedays I resolve
But everyday I'd conquer
With your love
With you love
[chorus]
All That I Know lyrics - Collective Soul
In these lazy days
I barely see myself through
I lay here comfortable
My thoughts wrapped around you
I've got a lot on my mind
It's always you every time
You're all that I know
When the sun goes down
You're all that I know
When the sun comes
Rising like the devil in me
And when tomorrow wakes
It's sure to show
You're all that I know
These quiet nights
They nurture me to a bore
The only strength I find
Is when I'm wanting you more
I've had a lot on my mind
It still was you every time
[chorus]
I barely see myself through
I lay here comfortable
My thoughts wrapped around you
I've got a lot on my mind
It's always you every time
You're all that I know
When the sun goes down
You're all that I know
When the sun comes
Rising like the devil in me
And when tomorrow wakes
It's sure to show
You're all that I know
These quiet nights
They nurture me to a bore
The only strength I find
Is when I'm wanting you more
I've had a lot on my mind
It still was you every time
[chorus]
I Don't Need Anymore Friends lyrics - Collective Soul
I'm out of my head
And it's not the way that I wanted to feel
This loneliness and dread
gets your attention, makes us real
I'm going nowhere and it's slowly sinking in
I don't stand a chance
Until you get me out of here
I just don't have the will to pretend
I'm running for the door
Can you get me out of here?
I really don't need anymore friends
Well turning it on
It's getting harder and harder to do
Well don't get me wrong
That's dedication, good for you
It's just your atmosphere that brings me to my knees
[chorus]
Not anymore
No not anymore
Don't take it bad
Don't look so sad
If I turn around and walk away
Don't take it hard
I'll try to play that part
But I'm having such a bad day
And I'm not that much fun anyway
[chorus]
Not anymore
No not anymore
And it's not the way that I wanted to feel
This loneliness and dread
gets your attention, makes us real
I'm going nowhere and it's slowly sinking in
I don't stand a chance
Until you get me out of here
I just don't have the will to pretend
I'm running for the door
Can you get me out of here?
I really don't need anymore friends
Well turning it on
It's getting harder and harder to do
Well don't get me wrong
That's dedication, good for you
It's just your atmosphere that brings me to my knees
[chorus]
Not anymore
No not anymore
Don't take it bad
Don't look so sad
If I turn around and walk away
Don't take it hard
I'll try to play that part
But I'm having such a bad day
And I'm not that much fun anyway
[chorus]
Not anymore
No not anymore
Good Morning After All lyrics - Collective Soul
Yeah you give up some days
When the tears they must flow
But God is always your strength
The only strength that you know
Now everything starts to fall in place
As you wake just to crawl
Still you say good morning after all
Yeah you stand just to fall
Still you say good morning after all
Yeah you questioned this life
Sure you wondered about love
But you swear there's always hope
Always hope from above
Now everything starts to fall into place
[chorus]
It's just another breath
It's just another breath you say
It's just another step
It's just another step today
[chorus]
When the tears they must flow
But God is always your strength
The only strength that you know
Now everything starts to fall in place
As you wake just to crawl
Still you say good morning after all
Yeah you stand just to fall
Still you say good morning after all
Yeah you questioned this life
Sure you wondered about love
But you swear there's always hope
Always hope from above
Now everything starts to fall into place
[chorus]
It's just another breath
It's just another breath you say
It's just another step
It's just another step today
[chorus]

Georgia Girl lyrics - Collective Soul
She moved south as a child
She moved it from the Jersey Shore
Said she remembers the ocean
But she don't recall much more
She lived a contagious youth
Still she swears she has no past
She said she don't take love
'Cause that high it never lasts
Welcome to her world
Welcome to the world
Of my Georgia Girl
She offers up fellowship
To those that come from broken homes
Yeah she laughs in the crowds
While her heart is all alone
[chorus]
She moved south as a child
She moved it from the Jersey Shore
Said she remembers the ocean
But she don't recall much more
She lived a contagious youth
Still she swears she has no past
She said she don't take love
'Cause that high it never lasts
Welcome to her world
Welcome to the world
Of my Georgia Girl
She offers up fellowship
To those that come from broken homes
Yeah she laughs in the crowds
While her heart is all alone
[chorus]
She moved south as a child
Adored lyrics - Collective Soul
I can say this life is
Much better today
Everything turns right if
Wrong gets in the way
Yeah I've got the feeling
It's something I find hard to explain
See I wasn't looking
But girl I'm glad I fell in your way
Then she says oh boy, oh boy
Count your lucky stars
Count what you've been wishing for
Oh boy, oh boy
Count the life you lead
Count how you are now adored
I can say the sun
Burns much brighter today
I can see my path though
Clouds darken my way
Yeah I've got this feeling
It's something I find hard to explain
See I wasn't looking
But girl I'm glad I fell in your way
[chorus]
She said she was tired of
Watching me just wilt and bleed
She said I'm like Jesus
I save those who do believe
Do you, do you believe?
[chorus]
Much better today
Everything turns right if
Wrong gets in the way
Yeah I've got the feeling
It's something I find hard to explain
See I wasn't looking
But girl I'm glad I fell in your way
Then she says oh boy, oh boy
Count your lucky stars
Count what you've been wishing for
Oh boy, oh boy
Count the life you lead
Count how you are now adored
I can say the sun
Burns much brighter today
I can see my path though
Clouds darken my way
Yeah I've got this feeling
It's something I find hard to explain
See I wasn't looking
But girl I'm glad I fell in your way
[chorus]
She said she was tired of
Watching me just wilt and bleed
She said I'm like Jesus
I save those who do believe
Do you, do you believe?
[chorus]
Better Now lyrics - Collective Soul
Oh I'm newly calibrated
All shiny and clean
I'm your recent adaptation
Time to redefine me
Let the word out I've got to get out
Oh I'm feeling better now
Break the news out I've got to get out
Oh I'm feeling better now
Oh I'm happy as Christmas
All wrapped to be seen
I'm your recent acquisition
Time to celebrate me
Let the word out I've got to get out
Oh I'm feeling better now
Break the news out I've got to get out
Oh I'm feeling better now
The world's done shaking
The world's done shaking
The world's done shaking me down
The world's done shaking
The world's done shaking
The world's done shaking me down
All shiny and clean
I'm your recent adaptation
Time to redefine me
Let the word out I've got to get out
Oh I'm feeling better now
Break the news out I've got to get out
Oh I'm feeling better now
Oh I'm happy as Christmas
All wrapped to be seen
I'm your recent acquisition
Time to celebrate me
Let the word out I've got to get out
Oh I'm feeling better now
Break the news out I've got to get out
Oh I'm feeling better now
The world's done shaking
The world's done shaking
The world's done shaking me down
The world's done shaking
The world's done shaking
The world's done shaking me down
There's A Way lyrics - Collective Soul
There's a way to carry on
To push me out then place me back where I belong
There's a way to make anew
To resurrect the wishes that I wish for you
I'm going on and on
I'm going' for the norm
There's a way
To say what you say
There's a way
To say what you say
There's a way to recognize
All the pride that wraps around for my disguise
There's a way to talk me through
To open the silence that belongs to you
I'm diggin' on and on
I'm diggin for the norm
There's a way
To say what you say
There's a way
To say what you say
Find some words that you can steal or borrow
Don't give it away
Save 'em up cause there's always tomorrow
To push me out then place me back where I belong
There's a way to make anew
To resurrect the wishes that I wish for you
I'm going on and on
I'm going' for the norm
There's a way
To say what you say
There's a way
To say what you say
There's a way to recognize
All the pride that wraps around for my disguise
There's a way to talk me through
To open the silence that belongs to you
I'm diggin' on and on
I'm diggin for the norm
There's a way
To say what you say
There's a way
To say what you say
Find some words that you can steal or borrow
Don't give it away
Save 'em up cause there's always tomorrow
Home lyrics - Collective Soul
Poetry of politics and lost entities
Government is loneliness on this we agree
High are the angels and low I decree
Love only burns when fueled by belief
Home, welcome home
Take a little walk, take a little walk right through our
Home, this is home
Take a little walk, take a little walk right through our... home
Climb up the mountains then slide to the seas
Beauty adores us on this we agree
God is a witness and God is a tease
Pick up your faith, yeah, everybody come with me
Government is loneliness on this we agree
High are the angels and low I decree
Love only burns when fueled by belief
Home, welcome home
Take a little walk, take a little walk right through our
Home, this is home
Take a little walk, take a little walk right through our... home
Climb up the mountains then slide to the seas
Beauty adores us on this we agree
God is a witness and God is a tease
Pick up your faith, yeah, everybody come with me
How Do You Love? lyrics - Collective Soul
There once was love thrown into your room
But you never knew
A calendar of days just for you
But you never knew, never knew no
And the truth that you'll find will always be
The truth you hide
So how do you love, how do you love
When your angels can't sing, and your world is still
Lacking of me
There once were eyes that only saw you
But you never knew
A portrait of a flower in full bloom
But you never knew, never knew no
And the words that you fear will always be
The words you hear
This space where you've been living
Has gifts you've never given
That's the face you always show
Ask me for words of wisdom
Tell me of your condition
I don't know, I don't
I don't know
And the truth that you'll find will always be
The truth you hide
But you never knew
A calendar of days just for you
But you never knew, never knew no
And the truth that you'll find will always be
The truth you hide
So how do you love, how do you love
When your angels can't sing, and your world is still
Lacking of me
There once were eyes that only saw you
But you never knew
A portrait of a flower in full bloom
But you never knew, never knew no
And the words that you fear will always be
The words you hear
This space where you've been living
Has gifts you've never given
That's the face you always show
Ask me for words of wisdom
Tell me of your condition
I don't know, I don't
I don't know
And the truth that you'll find will always be
The truth you hide
Him lyrics - Collective Soul
Well I took a little ride through the pouring rain
To think about the casualties of your exchange
Cause what you said ain't what you do
You know you live by the words you choose
Was it him, was it me
Were his lies easier than my truth to believe
Well I took a little walk through the driving rain
To catch my breath from your self-inflicted change
Cause what you said ain't what you do
I feel this storm will soon blanket you
And the rain comes just like a bed of nails
And the rain comes just like summer in hell
To think about the casualties of your exchange
Cause what you said ain't what you do
You know you live by the words you choose
Was it him, was it me
Were his lies easier than my truth to believe
Well I took a little walk through the driving rain
To catch my breath from your self-inflicted change
Cause what you said ain't what you do
I feel this storm will soon blanket you
And the rain comes just like a bed of nails
And the rain comes just like summer in hell
Feels Like (It Feels All Right) lyrics - Collective Soul
Feels like a new regime
All hail to the soul machine
Feels like what I taste
Always better than yesterday
Feels like sweet sixteen
All sugar and nicotine
It feels like ready go
I'm full throttle while the fluids flow
I said it feels like it feels like feels alright
Yeah and it feels like it feels like feels alright
Feels like a Sunday dress
I'm stained with sin but always blessed
It feels like the great escape
I love you baby but life can't wait
Feels like what I like
All hail to the soul machine
Feels like what I taste
Always better than yesterday
Feels like sweet sixteen
All sugar and nicotine
It feels like ready go
I'm full throttle while the fluids flow
I said it feels like it feels like feels alright
Yeah and it feels like it feels like feels alright
Feels like a Sunday dress
I'm stained with sin but always blessed
It feels like the great escape
I love you baby but life can't wait
Feels like what I like
Perfect To Stay lyrics - Collective Soul
She said good day boy, are you ready to shake
I said I love noise and this life that it makes
See I have a line though it's subject to change
I once had a thought but then I gave it away
Yeah sooner or later I'll be perfect to stay
She said good night boy, are you feeling alone
I said I love time but never ever this long
Like the sun surely loves it's newborn days yeah
Like all oceans love their waves I'm perfect to stay
Counting The Days lyrics - Collective Soul
Hey baby are you listening

Under Heaven's Skies lyrics - Collective Soul
Whenever I taste honey from your lips
It's a moment of purpose only you can give
Whatever I hear, whatever I may see
Whatever my cause, dear, I know you'll believe
Cause you're beautiful my love when I close my eyes

General Attitude lyrics - Collective Soul
Time, you've had more than your share of mine
I'm a criminal with no crime
Sing like a bird that is now released
Like an angel with clip-on wings
Yeah nothing that's etched in stone
See I'm already who's already gone
Love's a joke, love's a tease
Love's a cause I do believe but
Let it run now, let it run out to me
Low I can live in a sinking hole
Cause I'm as high as the grass will grow
Gone like a stage with its curtain drawn
Like the loss as of Babylon
Yeah I can mumble and talk again
But I'm a promise that's never been
Love's a thrill yeah, love's a scene
Love's a reason I believe but
Let it run now, let it run out to me
Yeah I'm coming round, this world loves me now
Feel the rhythm of changes laying down
I'm a criminal with no crime
Sing like a bird that is now released
Like an angel with clip-on wings
Yeah nothing that's etched in stone
See I'm already who's already gone
Love's a joke, love's a tease
Love's a cause I do believe but
Let it run now, let it run out to me
Low I can live in a sinking hole
Cause I'm as high as the grass will grow
Gone like a stage with its curtain drawn
Like the loss as of Babylon
Yeah I can mumble and talk again
But I'm a promise that's never been
Love's a thrill yeah, love's a scene
Love's a reason I believe but
Let it run now, let it run out to me
Yeah I'm coming round, this world loves me now
Feel the rhythm of changes laying down
Satellite lyrics - Collective Soul
Soon a man will kneel to pray
Soon the light will burn our shade
And with the sweet the bitter fades
So my heart and take your place
Cause I will be your force
And I will be your right
And I will watch over you like a satellite
Soon reason will have rhyme
Soon wisdom will imply
And with courage doubt subsides
So take my heart and take my pride
And I will be your side
And I will be your might
And I will watch over you like a satellite
River will flow from scenes unknown
I'll guide you through by the love I'll show
And the stars will wish upon the night
That they could have a guiding satellite
Soon the light will burn our shade
And with the sweet the bitter fades
So my heart and take your place
Cause I will be your force
And I will be your right
And I will watch over you like a satellite
Soon reason will have rhyme
Soon wisdom will imply
And with courage doubt subsides
So take my heart and take my pride
And I will be your side
And I will be your might
And I will watch over you like a satellite
River will flow from scenes unknown
I'll guide you through by the love I'll show
And the stars will wish upon the night
That they could have a guiding satellite
Skin lyrics - Collective Soul
I'm starting to feel loopy
Your dizziness consumes me
Jesus don't speak English
But I do think I understand
The rhyme and the reason
Of a goody good gentleman
If I were one I swear
I'd still be tasting your skin
The sky tonight is gracious
To rain on me your sweetness
I scream an explanation
Your world is so contagious
Your dizziness consumes me
Jesus don't speak English
But I do think I understand
The rhyme and the reason
Of a goody good gentleman
If I were one I swear
I'd still be tasting your skin
The sky tonight is gracious
To rain on me your sweetness
I scream an explanation
Your world is so contagious
Vent lyrics - Collective Soul
Shut your mouth
My mother said
Don't saddle me
With selfishness
Do you feel your tongue quivering
It's moments like these I revel in
Your conversation never sticks
'Cause no truth in you exists
Yeah you bite before you lick
I love ya 'cause you're such a prick
One more time
Don't fashion me
With stylish word
Of ramblings
Do you feel my pulse lingering
It's moments like these I revel in
My mother said
Don't saddle me
With selfishness
Do you feel your tongue quivering
It's moments like these I revel in
Your conversation never sticks
'Cause no truth in you exists
Yeah you bite before you lick
I love ya 'cause you're such a prick
One more time
Don't fashion me
With stylish word
Of ramblings
Do you feel my pulse lingering
It's moments like these I revel in
Why Pt. 2 lyrics - Collective Soul
In the air I'm tasting your perfection
Forgive me dear for my misdirection
As I crawl beneath this torture you adore
I fall face to face with my scars you've ignored
So tell me why it don't feel the same
Tell me why I've got to feel this way
Yeah you leave, you're gone
And I'm left here with the blame
So tell me why it don't feel the same
All my props I swear they were in order
Even with the warnings of your thunder
Now I pause to let my silence scream tonight
Awhile you roam like a serpent satellite
Forgive me dear for my misdirection
As I crawl beneath this torture you adore
I fall face to face with my scars you've ignored
So tell me why it don't feel the same
Tell me why I've got to feel this way
Yeah you leave, you're gone
And I'm left here with the blame
So tell me why it don't feel the same
All my props I swear they were in order
Even with the warnings of your thunder
Now I pause to let my silence scream tonight
Awhile you roam like a serpent satellite
10 Years Later lyrics - Collective Soul
Lack of knowledge has a source (oh boy)
Still my thoughts must run their course (oh yeah)
And they do
Does my memory comfort you
While your eyes see me through
Well it's 10 years later and still I haven't a clue
Oh I'm crying
Caution breathes a lonely breath (oh boy)
Love withstands but time must rest (oh yeah)
And it does
Does my memory comfort you
Your eyes see me through
Well it's 10 years later and still I haven't a clue
Oh it's 10 years later
Still my thoughts must run their course (oh yeah)
And they do
Does my memory comfort you
While your eyes see me through
Well it's 10 years later and still I haven't a clue
Oh I'm crying
Caution breathes a lonely breath (oh boy)
Love withstands but time must rest (oh yeah)
And it does
Does my memory comfort you
Your eyes see me through
Well it's 10 years later and still I haven't a clue
Oh it's 10 years later
Boast lyrics - Collective Soul
Yeah you want to
'Cause you say so
'Cause you need to
Yeah you need to need to
I don't want to
I don't have to
But you've got to
Yeah you got to got to
Could you stay in line
Do you follow what I say
Can you read my mind
Then off where you lay
Feel the water rise
Can you swim now on your own
Do you act surprised
When you hear lies you have told
Oh now
Now you're motoring
Oh now
Now you're fluttering
Oh now now
'Cause you say so
'Cause you need to
Yeah you need to need to
I don't want to
I don't have to
But you've got to
Yeah you got to got to
Could you stay in line
Do you follow what I say
Can you read my mind
Then off where you lay
Feel the water rise
Can you swim now on your own
Do you act surprised
When you hear lies you have told
Oh now
Now you're motoring
Oh now
Now you're fluttering
Oh now now
Turn Around lyrics - Collective Soul
There floats our conversation
Like clouds in our minds
We leave an open invitation
To this world we've denied
If I turn around
Would that be my fault
If I turn around
Would that be my loss
Feel the raindrops of impression
Stinging from above
What the price of this confusion
We have yet to speak of
Out of sight beyond confusion
Still I'm here defining my own truth
Paranoia by conclusion
What's the point if I am still missing you
Like clouds in our minds
We leave an open invitation
To this world we've denied
If I turn around
Would that be my fault
If I turn around
Would that be my loss
Feel the raindrops of impression
Stinging from above
What the price of this confusion
We have yet to speak of
Out of sight beyond confusion
Still I'm here defining my own truth
Paranoia by conclusion
What's the point if I am still missing you
You Speak My Language lyrics - Collective Soul
All around the world
Everywhere I go
No one understands me
No one knows
What I'm trying to say
No one understands me
They look at me when I talk to them
And they scratch their heads
They go what's he trying to say
But you, you speak my language
Yeah you, you speak my language
All around the world
Everywhere I go
No one understands me
No one knows
What I'm trying to say
Even in my hometown
My friends make me write it down
They look at me when I talk to them
And they shrug their shoulders
They say what's he talking about
Everywhere I go
No one understands me
No one knows
What I'm trying to say
No one understands me
They look at me when I talk to them
And they scratch their heads
They go what's he trying to say
But you, you speak my language
Yeah you, you speak my language
All around the world
Everywhere I go
No one understands me
No one knows
What I'm trying to say
Even in my hometown
My friends make me write it down
They look at me when I talk to them
And they shrug their shoulders
They say what's he talking about
Perfect Day lyrics - Collective Soul
There she stumbles
Falling to her knees
I think she tripped on reality
I have witnessed
Tragic comedies
That's the world in which she leads
Well I would walk a million miles
To give her all that she needs
But she would walk a million more
To do what she believes
She'll have a perfect day
Troubles blooming
Innocence now fades
But still she's dry through
All the rain
There's no purpose
She has yet to crave
She's like the big dog on parade
Well I would walk a million miles
To give her all that she needs
She would walk a million more
To do well as she pleased
She had a perfect day
I can't figure this one out
I've no words here to explain
She'll just sugar kiss me off
She'll just have another perfect day
Falling to her knees
I think she tripped on reality
I have witnessed
Tragic comedies
That's the world in which she leads
Well I would walk a million miles
To give her all that she needs
But she would walk a million more
To do what she believes
She'll have a perfect day
Troubles blooming
Innocence now fades
But still she's dry through
All the rain
There's no purpose
She has yet to crave
She's like the big dog on parade
Well I would walk a million miles
To give her all that she needs
She would walk a million more
To do well as she pleased
She had a perfect day
I can't figure this one out
I've no words here to explain
She'll just sugar kiss me off
She'll just have another perfect day
After All lyrics - Collective Soul
We steal to lose every colour
From the sky
Then crawl as a child
While the shadows burn our eyes
We know there's no longer shine
On this burned out rainbow
Lately it seems we've been chasing
What times resolved
Maybe something means nothing here
After all
Whispers are now screams
This conclusion never ends
My pride with your kiss
Even angels can't defend
We know we're running head on
Into our confusion
Still we hide safe behind these crumbled walls
Cause we know there's nothing here after all
From the sky
Then crawl as a child
While the shadows burn our eyes
We know there's no longer shine
On this burned out rainbow
Lately it seems we've been chasing
What times resolved
Maybe something means nothing here
After all
Whispers are now screams
This conclusion never ends
My pride with your kiss
Even angels can't defend
We know we're running head on
Into our confusion
Still we hide safe behind these crumbled walls
Cause we know there's nothing here after all
Over Tokyo lyrics - Collective Soul
Got a photograph of a smile
Taken way back when we could smile
Now this plane will take me
Where I don't know
Maybe Tokyo
'Cause there's no memories over Tokyo
And there's no hurting over Tokyo
Got a photograph of some tears
Taken presently with more tears
Now I'll search for happiness
Where should I go
Maybe Tokyo
Attention will this pain go away
My condition oh it's just not the same
Taken way back when we could smile
Now this plane will take me
Where I don't know
Maybe Tokyo
'Cause there's no memories over Tokyo
And there's no hurting over Tokyo
Got a photograph of some tears
Taken presently with more tears
Now I'll search for happiness
Where should I go
Maybe Tokyo
Attention will this pain go away
My condition oh it's just not the same
Happiness lyrics - Collective Soul
Congratulations, oh baby I'm back again
I'm loaded down with my god and my medicine
I know wisdom is change
So why can't you function that way
Here I am flaunting my self control
'Cause happiness is more than a kiss you know
I'm activating all your promises once again
And pushing forth dear with the rage of my reverence
We could close our eyes
And recklessly run on through
Any space and time
That we choose
I'm loaded down with my god and my medicine
I know wisdom is change
So why can't you function that way
Here I am flaunting my self control
'Cause happiness is more than a kiss you know
I'm activating all your promises once again
And pushing forth dear with the rage of my reverence
We could close our eyes
And recklessly run on through
Any space and time
That we choose
Tremble For My Beloved lyrics - Collective Soul
The Hour has Begun
Your eyes have now opened
To a world where madness craves
To A World Where Hope's enslaved
Oh I'll tremble for my love always
Your windows opened wide
Your innocence takes flight
To a world where madness craves
To A World Where Hope's enslaved
Oh I'll tremble for my love always
Your eyes have now opened
To a world where madness craves
To A World Where Hope's enslaved
Oh I'll tremble for my love always
Your windows opened wide
Your innocence takes flight
To a world where madness craves
To A World Where Hope's enslaved
Oh I'll tremble for my love always
Heavy lyrics - Collective Soul
Complicate this world you wrapped for me
I'm acquainted with your suffering
And all your weight
It falls on me
It brings me down
And all your weight
It falls on me
It falls on me
Hold me up to all whom you've deceived
Promises you break you still believe
I'm acquainted with your suffering
And all your weight
It falls on me
It brings me down
And all your weight
It falls on me
It falls on me
Hold me up to all whom you've deceived
Promises you break you still believe
No More, No Less lyrics - Collective Soul
Here I lie motionless
Catch me if you can
My properties of no defense
So, strike at your command
But, don't bring me down
All right
Don't bring me down
Cause there's purpose
For this night
Save me come tomorrow
Lead me to my urgency
See I'm no more no less
Of an angel
Than you'd have me be
So let's shake it like this
Steady here I cast my lines
Only to expose
A weaker sense and
No constraint
Now my true self shows
But, don't bring me down
All right
Don't bring me down
Cause there's promise
In the night
Catch me if you can
My properties of no defense
So, strike at your command
But, don't bring me down
All right
Don't bring me down
Cause there's purpose
For this night
Save me come tomorrow
Lead me to my urgency
See I'm no more no less
Of an angel
Than you'd have me be
So let's shake it like this
Steady here I cast my lines
Only to expose
A weaker sense and
No constraint
Now my true self shows
But, don't bring me down
All right
Don't bring me down
Cause there's promise
In the night
Needs lyrics - Collective Soul
All around me I see what weakness has made
Too much tomorrow I think I'll take all today
Am I a poison, Am I a thorn in the side
Am I a picture, perfect subject tonight
I don't need nobody
I don't need the weight of words to find a way
To crash on through
I don't need nobody
I just need to learn the depth
Or doubt of faith to fall into
Here I slumber to awaken my daze
I find convenience in this savior I save
Am I a prison, Am I a source of dire news
Am I a picture perfect reason for you
I don't need nobody
I don't need the weight of words to find a way
To crash on through
I don't need nobody
I just need to learn the depth or doubt
Of faith to fall into
In this time of substitute
It's my needs I've answered to (All the while)
And the hope that I invest
Still turns to signals of distress (All the while)
I don't need nobody
I don't need the weight of words to find a way
To crash on through
I don't need nobody
I just need to learn the depth or doubt
Of faith to fall into
You're all I need
When the water runs deep
You're all I need
Now I cry my soul to sleep
You're all I need [4x]
Too much tomorrow I think I'll take all today
Am I a poison, Am I a thorn in the side
Am I a picture, perfect subject tonight
I don't need nobody
I don't need the weight of words to find a way
To crash on through
I don't need nobody
I just need to learn the depth
Or doubt of faith to fall into
Here I slumber to awaken my daze
I find convenience in this savior I save
Am I a prison, Am I a source of dire news
Am I a picture perfect reason for you
I don't need nobody
I don't need the weight of words to find a way
To crash on through
I don't need nobody
I just need to learn the depth or doubt
Of faith to fall into
In this time of substitute
It's my needs I've answered to (All the while)
And the hope that I invest
Still turns to signals of distress (All the while)
I don't need nobody
I don't need the weight of words to find a way
To crash on through
I don't need nobody
I just need to learn the depth or doubt
Of faith to fall into
You're all I need
When the water runs deep
You're all I need
Now I cry my soul to sleep
You're all I need [4x]
Slow lyrics - Collective Soul
Morning like this
Make me feel like I never could float
Glimpses of peace
Portray all that you never could show
I'm not weakened by the fears
That you have applied
See I'm now learning in these walls
That you have supplied
Slow
Slow down boy
Slow down to control
Slow, slow
Clothed in new costumes
That weather your newfound storms
Staring through reason
Content with your newfound decor
I passed the darkened vaults of
Late doorways as if I were a king
Like this I chain a whisper to my faults
Make me feel like I never could float
Glimpses of peace
Portray all that you never could show
I'm not weakened by the fears
That you have applied
See I'm now learning in these walls
That you have supplied
Slow
Slow down boy
Slow down to control
Slow, slow
Clothed in new costumes
That weather your newfound storms
Staring through reason
Content with your newfound decor
I passed the darkened vaults of
Late doorways as if I were a king
Like this I chain a whisper to my faults
Dandy Life lyrics - Collective Soul
Took a walk to a caution scene
Guess I crossed the line somehow
And if I lost some of your hope
I'm sorry for the folly was all mine
And I don't ever really understand
All the things we say
But I try to anyway anyhow
For what's in a day of a dandy life
For what's in a day of this dandy life
Everything, Everything, Everything
Hangin' on every word
My social butterfly
Everyone wants to be loved
Loved in their own way
I can say I spent the night
On the telephone inside
When you said that every single
One of us can find a happy face
So why don't you go try
Try anyway
And I suppose I was born yesterday
'Cause I never thought of things
Quite in that way at all and in that way
For what's in a day of a dandy life
For what's in a day of this dandy life
Everything, Everything, Everything
Guess I crossed the line somehow
And if I lost some of your hope
I'm sorry for the folly was all mine
And I don't ever really understand
All the things we say
But I try to anyway anyhow
For what's in a day of a dandy life
For what's in a day of this dandy life
Everything, Everything, Everything
Hangin' on every word
My social butterfly
Everyone wants to be loved
Loved in their own way
I can say I spent the night
On the telephone inside
When you said that every single
One of us can find a happy face
So why don't you go try
Try anyway
And I suppose I was born yesterday
'Cause I never thought of things
Quite in that way at all and in that way
For what's in a day of a dandy life
For what's in a day of this dandy life
Everything, Everything, Everything
Run lyrics - Collective Song
Are these times contagious
I've never been this bored before
Is this the prize I've waited for
Now as the hours passing
There's nothing left here to insure
I long to find a messenger
Have I got a long way to run [x2]
Yeah, I run
Is there a cure among us
From this processed sanity
I weaken with each voice that sings
Now in this world of purchase
I'm going to buy back memories
To awaken some old qualities
Have I got a long way to run [x2]
Yeah, I run [x2]
Have I got a long way [x2]
Have I got a long way to run [x2]
Yeah, I run [x4]
[background:]
Have I got a long way to run [x4]
I've never been this bored before
Is this the prize I've waited for
Now as the hours passing
There's nothing left here to insure
I long to find a messenger
Have I got a long way to run [x2]
Yeah, I run
Is there a cure among us
From this processed sanity
I weaken with each voice that sings
Now in this world of purchase
I'm going to buy back memories
To awaken some old qualities
Have I got a long way to run [x2]
Yeah, I run [x2]
Have I got a long way [x2]
Have I got a long way to run [x2]
Yeah, I run [x4]

Have I got a long way to run [x4]
Generate lyrics - Collective Soul
Hey you give me no choice
I entertain by the silence
That you created by noise
Hey I'm flirting inside
I need the floor opened up
For the scream I'd now love to shout
I can't convey
I can't relate to the thoughts you now
Generate
I can't contain
I can't explain all the words you now
Generate
Hey I swallowed your pride
To gather up confrontation
That you have so long denied
I entertain by the silence
That you created by noise
Hey I'm flirting inside
I need the floor opened up
For the scream I'd now love to shout
I can't convey
I can't relate to the thoughts you now
Generate
I can't contain
I can't explain all the words you now
Generate
Hey I swallowed your pride
To gather up confrontation
That you have so long denied
Compliment lyrics - Collective Soul
Now I've taken the side
Of a beautiful calm
Can you see this disguise
Fading to a resolve
And there it goes my innocence
While gathering up a compliment
And here I lie with words to swear
There's something more than
The world out there
Hesitation compounds
I've nothing left to sustain
My worries here have allowed
A momentary refrain
And there it goes my innocence
While gathering up a compliment
And here I lie with words to swear
There's something more
Than the world out there
Of a beautiful calm
Can you see this disguise
Fading to a resolve
And there it goes my innocence
While gathering up a compliment
And here I lie with words to swear
There's something more than
The world out there
Hesitation compounds
I've nothing left to sustain
My worries here have allowed
A momentary refrain
And there it goes my innocence
While gathering up a compliment
And here I lie with words to swear
There's something more
Than the world out there
Not The One lyrics - Collective Soul
I waltzed around you
Seven times
Only to become
A melody you never sang
I'm not the one
Oh I'm not the one
Clouds of thought you
Filter through
Never to reason
While patiently your world
Still bleeds
Who shall be the one?
Oh I'm not the one
Seven times
Only to become
A melody you never sang
I'm not the one
Oh I'm not the one
Clouds of thought you
Filter through
Never to reason
While patiently your world
Still bleeds
Who shall be the one?
Oh I'm not the one
Crown lyrics - Collective Soul
Who's gonna be my savior
now that I've learned to believe
Who's gonna be the answer
To all of my questioning
Well I hope I'm not lost
But I think that hope is now distracting
And the words that secure a thought
Are now faint whisperings
Who's gonna wear my crown
I don't know I just might alone
Who's gonna wear my crown
I don't know I've just got to go my way
Who's gonna be my partner
Now that I stand here alone
Who's gonna be the shepherd
To lead this poor boy back home
Well I hope I'm not lost
But I think that hope is now distracting
And the words that secure a thought
Are now faint whisperings
now that I've learned to believe
Who's gonna be the answer
To all of my questioning
Well I hope I'm not lost
But I think that hope is now distracting
And the words that secure a thought
Are now faint whisperings
Who's gonna wear my crown
I don't know I just might alone
Who's gonna wear my crown
I don't know I've just got to go my way
Who's gonna be my partner
Now that I stand here alone
Who's gonna be the shepherd
To lead this poor boy back home
Well I hope I'm not lost
But I think that hope is now distracting
And the words that secure a thought
Are now faint whisperings
She Said lyrics - Collective Soul
She said that time is unfair
To a woman her age
Now that wisdom has come
Everything else fades
She said she realizes
She's seen her better days
She said she can't look back
To her days of youth
What she thought were lies
She later found was truth
She said her daddy had dreams
But he drank them away
And her mother's to blame
For the way she is today
Life's river shall rise
She Said
And only the strong shall survive
She Said
But I'm feeling quite weak
She Said
Will you comfort and forgive me
She Said
She said she's still searching
For salvation's light
She said she wishes all day
And she prays all night
She said she won't speak of love
Because love she's never known
She said it's moments like these
She hates to be alone
Forgive me
She Said
Forgive me
She Said
To a woman her age
Now that wisdom has come
Everything else fades
She said she realizes
She's seen her better days
She said she can't look back
To her days of youth
What she thought were lies
She later found was truth
She said her daddy had dreams
But he drank them away
And her mother's to blame
For the way she is today
Life's river shall rise
She Said
And only the strong shall survive
She Said
But I'm feeling quite weak
She Said
Will you comfort and forgive me
She Said
She said she's still searching
For salvation's light
She said she wishes all day
And she prays all night
She said she won't speak of love
Because love she's never known
She said it's moments like these
She hates to be alone
Forgive me
She Said
Forgive me

Precious Declaration lyrics - Collective Soul
Hitched a ride to the peaceful side of town
Then proceeded where thieves were no longer found
Can't crash now I've been waiting for this
Won't crash now I found some encouragement
Precious declaration reads
Yours is yours and mine you leave alone now
Precious declaration says
I believe all hope is dead no longer
New meanings to the words I feed upon
Wake within my veins elements of freedom
Can't break now I've been living for this
Won't break now I'm cleansed with hopefulness
Precious declaration says
Yours is yours and mine you leave alone now
Precious declaration says
I believe all hope is dead no longer
Once I jumped thru hoops of fire
High and far as you required
I was blind but now I see
Salvation has discovered me
Then proceeded where thieves were no longer found
Can't crash now I've been waiting for this
Won't crash now I found some encouragement
Precious declaration reads
Yours is yours and mine you leave alone now
Precious declaration says
I believe all hope is dead no longer
New meanings to the words I feed upon
Wake within my veins elements of freedom
Can't break now I've been living for this
Won't break now I'm cleansed with hopefulness
Precious declaration says
Yours is yours and mine you leave alone now
Precious declaration says
I believe all hope is dead no longer
Once I jumped thru hoops of fire
High and far as you required
I was blind but now I see
Salvation has discovered me
Listen lyrics - Collective Soul
Hey you're now thirsty
Walking in the desert all alone
Hey you're now searching
Lost in isolation from your soul
The bullets you bite
From the pain you request
You're finding harder to digest
And the answers you seek
Are the ones you destroy
Your anger's well deployed
Hey why can't you listen
Hey why can't you hear
Hey why can't you listen
As love screams everywhere
Hey you now hunger
Feeding your mind with selfishness
Hey you now wander
Aimlessly around your consciousness
Your prophecies fail
And your thoughts become weak
Silence creates necessity
You're clothing yourself
In the shields of despair
Your courage now impaired
You crucify all honesty
No signs you see do you believe
And all your words just twist and turn
Reviving just to crash and burn
You're fighting till the bitter end
If only your heart could open up
And listen
Walking in the desert all alone
Hey you're now searching
Lost in isolation from your soul
The bullets you bite
From the pain you request
You're finding harder to digest
And the answers you seek
Are the ones you destroy
Your anger's well deployed
Hey why can't you listen
Hey why can't you hear
Hey why can't you listen
As love screams everywhere
Hey you now hunger
Feeding your mind with selfishness
Hey you now wander
Aimlessly around your consciousness
Your prophecies fail
And your thoughts become weak
Silence creates necessity
You're clothing yourself
In the shields of despair
Your courage now impaired
You crucify all honesty
No signs you see do you believe
And all your words just twist and turn
Reviving just to crash and burn
You're fighting till the bitter end
If only your heart could open up
And listen
Maybe lyrics - Collective Soul
The sky now divides
To bring you back into the fold
Welcome home
Still my need to recognize
Any comfort you may show
Only grows
Guess I'll learn to accommodate
While my heart just sits and waits
Maybe God you found
Maybe is all that you can offer now
Where am I to take refuge
When the storms of pain release
Shelter me
This blessedness of life
Sometimes brings me to my knees
I call on thee
I have not the words to write
A Farewell to you tonight
Maybe God you found
Maybe is all that you can offer now
I know hearts are weeping
While your voice is now singing
On high, angel on high
[In memory of Kib Browning]
To bring you back into the fold
Welcome home
Still my need to recognize
Any comfort you may show
Only grows
Guess I'll learn to accommodate
While my heart just sits and waits
Maybe God you found
Maybe is all that you can offer now
Where am I to take refuge
When the storms of pain release
Shelter me
This blessedness of life
Sometimes brings me to my knees
I call on thee
I have not the words to write
A Farewell to you tonight
Maybe God you found
Maybe is all that you can offer now
I know hearts are weeping
While your voice is now singing
On high, angel on high
[In memory of Kib Browning]
Full Circle lyrics - Collective Soul
Drowning to discover
I'd swim but then why bother
Wrestled with decisions
And fools with their opinions
One fine morning I'll awake
To sleep some more
To define my premonitions
Last judgement and conditions
I'd have to dig in my emotions
Then relinquish my devotion
One fine morning I'll awake
Then hope to learn
One fine morning I'll awake
To love's return
Round and Round and Round
I believe love goes Round and Round
Round and Round and Round
I believe love comes Round and Round
Singing the rendition
Of hope in my condition
Caught up in defending
That truth is never ending
One fine morning I'll awake
Then reaffirm
One fine morning I'll awake
To love's return
I'd swim but then why bother
Wrestled with decisions
And fools with their opinions
One fine morning I'll awake
To sleep some more
To define my premonitions
Last judgement and conditions
I'd have to dig in my emotions
Then relinquish my devotion
One fine morning I'll awake
Then hope to learn
One fine morning I'll awake
To love's return
Round and Round and Round
I believe love goes Round and Round
Round and Round and Round
I believe love comes Round and Round
Singing the rendition
Of hope in my condition
Caught up in defending
That truth is never ending
One fine morning I'll awake
Then reaffirm
One fine morning I'll awake
To love's return
Blame lyrics - Collective Soul
You pushed me down
For all the world to see
I guess that's your price
For my loyalty
So while you're tasting sin
And swallowing pain
Don't look at me
To take your blame
When you're willing to render
To the guilt you concede
When truth is your reason
Then lay that blame on me
When you unveil a conscience
And with peace you agree
When love is your constant
Then lay that blame on me
You lay me out
In hopes that I'd wilt away
But strength rained down
And love provided shade
So while the pageant of lies
Still glow from your tongue
Don't blame me for
Your Kingdom Come
Question your answers
Truth has no anger
Gather up your words
Redemption now offered
For all the world to see
I guess that's your price
For my loyalty
So while you're tasting sin
And swallowing pain
Don't look at me
To take your blame
When you're willing to render
To the guilt you concede
When truth is your reason
Then lay that blame on me
When you unveil a conscience
And with peace you agree
When love is your constant
Then lay that blame on me
You lay me out
In hopes that I'd wilt away
But strength rained down
And love provided shade
So while the pageant of lies
Still glow from your tongue
Don't blame me for
Your Kingdom Come
Question your answers
Truth has no anger
Gather up your words
Redemption now offered
Disciplined Breakdown lyrics - Collective Soul
I never ever can remember
All the things that go bump in the night
Quietness uncovers
Betrayal now hovers
And my comfort levels not quite right
I'd love to stay and evaluate
But my torture can't wait
It seems I'm losing ground
Welcome all to my disciplined breakdown
I never ever can decipher
Who listens to the words I say
While I sense I'm searching
I never know who's lurking
To scare my sacred thoughts away
I'd love to hang and chat a while
But my mind's become vile
It seems I'm losing ground
Welcome all to my disciplined breakdown
I never ever can contribute
To finding all the faults that sustain
Never mind the answers
To who spreads the cancer
When the questioning of why remains
I'd love to sit and rationalize
But my tongue's become dry
It seems I'm losing ground
Welcome all to my disciplined breakdown
Breakdown Reality
Breakdown my ability to get it back
Breakdown honestly
Breakdown now deliver me
From all this madness and all this agony
All the things that go bump in the night
Quietness uncovers
Betrayal now hovers
And my comfort levels not quite right
I'd love to stay and evaluate
But my torture can't wait
It seems I'm losing ground
Welcome all to my disciplined breakdown
I never ever can decipher
Who listens to the words I say
While I sense I'm searching
I never know who's lurking
To scare my sacred thoughts away
I'd love to hang and chat a while
But my mind's become vile
It seems I'm losing ground
Welcome all to my disciplined breakdown
I never ever can contribute
To finding all the faults that sustain
Never mind the answers
To who spreads the cancer
When the questioning of why remains
I'd love to sit and rationalize
But my tongue's become dry
It seems I'm losing ground
Welcome all to my disciplined breakdown
Breakdown Reality
Breakdown my ability to get it back
Breakdown honestly
Breakdown now deliver me
From all this madness and all this agony
Forgiveness lyrics - Collective Soul
In my silence I would love to forget
But restitution hasn't come quite yet
And with one accord I keep pushing forth
I stretch my heart to heal some more
It used to be all I'd want to learn
Was wisdom trust and truth
But now all I really want to learn
Is forgiveness for you
As my seasons change I've now grown to know
When one's heart creates, one's soul doesn't owe
So I wash away stains of yesterday
Then tempt my heart with love's display
But restitution hasn't come quite yet
And with one accord I keep pushing forth
I stretch my heart to heal some more
It used to be all I'd want to learn
Was wisdom trust and truth
But now all I really want to learn
Is forgiveness for you
As my seasons change I've now grown to know
When one's heart creates, one's soul doesn't owe
So I wash away stains of yesterday
Then tempt my heart with love's display
Link lyrics - Collective Soul
I'm sleeping to encompass myself
I wake up then distribute what's left
With my anger well defused
The link to love I now may choose
With my heart no more abused
The link of love I now may use
I'm sleeping to develop myself
I wake up then rel;inquish what's left
With my anger well diffused
The link to love I now may choose
With my heart no more abused
The link of love I now may use
I was caught by your lies spinning
then was saved by truth's opinion
All's quiet now
I wake up then distribute what's left
With my anger well defused
The link to love I now may choose
With my heart no more abused
The link of love I now may use
I'm sleeping to develop myself
I wake up then rel;inquish what's left
With my anger well diffused
The link to love I now may choose
With my heart no more abused
The link of love I now may use
I was caught by your lies spinning
then was saved by truth's opinion
All's quiet now
Giving lyrics - Collective Soul
Giving me cause so I may yearn
Giving me words so I may learn
I want more I want more
Giving me thoughts that I may keep
Giving me dreams so I may sleep
I want more I want more
Still all I need is love
So give me more
Giving me calm to fall into
Giving me hope to guide me thru
I want more I want more
Giving me light to see thru tears
Giving me strength to crush my fears
I want more I want more
Still all I need is love
So give me more
I won't break you down
I won't bring you down anymore
Giving me choice so I may seek
Giving me faith so I'll believe
I want more I want more
Giving me breath of your mercy
Giving yourself to comfort me
I want more I want more
Still all I need is love
So give me more
Giving me words so I may learn
I want more I want more
Giving me thoughts that I may keep
Giving me dreams so I may sleep
I want more I want more
Still all I need is love
So give me more
Giving me calm to fall into
Giving me hope to guide me thru
I want more I want more
Giving me light to see thru tears
Giving me strength to crush my fears

Giving me breath of your mercy
Giving yourself to comfort me
I want more I want more
Still all I need is love
So give me more
In Between lyrics - Collec
In between us
Good and evil wait
To lie beside us
In our bed we make
In between us
Caution never heeds
We prey on weakness
Then beg for sympathy
In between words
Silence parades so confusion is heard
Our voices afraid
To speak up and reassure
So in between words we remain
In between
In between us
Hope we've yet to see
We long for healings
But the scars never leave
Silence fills the void
Of love and hate
An effective tool
When used to separate
Now separate
Good and evil wait
To lie beside us
In our bed we make
In between us
Caution never heeds
We prey on weakness
Then beg for sympathy
In between words
Silence parades so confusion is heard
Our voices afraid
To speak up and reassure
So in between words we remain
In between
In between us
Hope we've yet to see
We long for healings
But the scars never leave
Silence fills the void
Of love and hate
An effective tool
When used to separate
Now separate
Crowded Head lyrics - Collective Soul
All the words that I want to hear
Are distorted by your weaknesses and fear
And your lies that I push away
I might accept them on your good self pity day
All of your sadness is crowded in my head
All of your madness is crowded in my head
And the peace that I really need
You substitute it for your policy of greed
Still your pride always suffocates
Any truth that your heart might want to make
All of your sadness is crowded in my head
All of your madness is crowded in my head
With all your static
I can't distinguish between what's being said
I have no room for this
You see I'm living with a crowded head
And the path that I needed shown
You left me stranded in the darkness all alone
All the promises you fed to me
I'm now choking from their taste of cruelty
All of your sadness is crowded in my head
All of your madness is crowded in my head
Are distorted by your weaknesses and fear
And your lies that I push away
I might accept them on your good self pity day
All of your sadness is crowded in my head
All of your madness is crowded in my head
And the peace that I really need
You substitute it for your policy of greed
Still your pride always suffocates
Any truth that your heart might want to make
All of your sadness is crowded in my head
All of your madness is crowded in my head
With all your static
I can't distinguish between what's being said
I have no room for this
You see I'm living with a crowded head
And the path that I needed shown
You left me stranded in the darkness all alone
All the promises you fed to me
I'm now choking from their taste of cruelty
All of your sadness is crowded in my head
All of your madness is crowded in my head
Everything lyrics - Collective Soul
With the faces I now wear
It's only proof my thoughts
Have become impaired
And the courage I shall build
Stands at distance still
Everything is physical
Everything takes precedence
Everything's admissible
Everything is evident
And this comfort I've designed
Will only stay intact until
The truth I find
As some answers fly around
No cure have I found
Guide me, save me, teach me
I need to learn from this
Hold me, soothe me my Love
The reflection I now see
Is always trying to blind
And discourage me
But my patience shall prevail
And myself as well
Everything is comfortable
Everything's a brighter shade
Everything is suitable
Everything is KOOL-AID
It's only proof my thoughts
Have become impaired
And the courage I shall build
Stands at distance still
Everything is physical
Everything takes precedence
Everything's admissible
Everything is evident
And this comfort I've designed
Will only stay intact until
The truth I find
As some answers fly around
No cure have I found
Guide me, save me, teach me
I need to learn from this
Hold me, soothe me my Love
The reflection I now see
Is always trying to blind
And discourage me
But my patience shall prevail
And myself as well
Everything is comfortable
Everything's a brighter shade
Everything is suitable
Everything is KOOL-AID
Simple lyrics - Collective Soul
Tangle up your twisted tongue. It's simple.
Mesmerize your everyday. It's simple.
Hey hey can't you see?
Love is all that you should need.
Can't you see?
Ease your troubled mind.
Let love seek & let love find. It's simple.
Ease your weary soul.
Let love lead & let love flow. It's simple.
Pry into combative times. It's simple.
Forfeit all lush concerns. It's simple.
Hey hey don't you care?
Love is all that you should share.
Don't you care?
Cleansing out your tarnished heart.
It's simple.
Learning from each other can be simple.
Hey hey don't we know?
Love is all that we should show.
Don't we know?
Mesmerize your everyday. It's simple.
Hey hey can't you see?
Love is all that you should need.
Can't you see?
Ease your troubled mind.
Let love seek & let love find. It's simple.
Ease your weary soul.
Let love lead & let love flow. It's simple.
Pry into combative times. It's simple.
Forfeit all lush concerns. It's simple.
Hey hey don't you care?
Love is all that you should share.
Don't you care?
Cleansing out your tarnished heart.
It's simple.
Learning from each other can be simple.
Hey hey don't we know?
Love is all that we should show.
Don't we know?
Untitled lyrics - Collective Soul
Who have I left to please?
Take what you've yet to seize.
No more questioning
'Cause love is what love should be.
Unveil to me all that you want me to do.
But why should I stop bearing allegiance to you?
See, I don't believe in
The sorcerers or the preachers.
I just believe in you.
And I don't believe in
the scholars or the wise men.
I just believe in you.
What have I left to prove?
I speak all the words you choose.
Confine me in walls of truth
'Cause love does what love should do.
No more sentence.
All of my pain has been freed.
Why should this end when your
mercy's all I need?
See, I don't believe in
The sorcerers or the preachers.
I just believe in you.
And I don't believe in
The scholars or the wise men.
I just believe in you.
Take what you've yet to seize.
No more questioning
'Cause love is what love should be.
Unveil to me all that you want me to do.
But why should I stop bearing allegiance to you?
See, I don't believe in
The sorcerers or the preachers.
I just believe in you.
And I don't believe in
the scholars or the wise men.
I just believe in you.
What have I left to prove?
I speak all the words you choose.
Confine me in walls of truth
'Cause love does what love should do.
No more sentence.
All of my pain has been freed.
Why should this end when your
mercy's all I need?
See, I don't believe in
The sorcerers or the preachers.
I just believe in you.
And I don't believe in
The scholars or the wise men.
I just believe in you.
The World I Know lyrics - Collective Soul
Has our conscience shown?
Has the sweet breeze blown?
Has all kindness gone?
Hope still lingers on.
I drink myself of newfound pity
Sitting alone in New York City
And I don't know why.
Are we listening?
Hymns of offering.
Have we eyes to see?
Love is gathering.
All the words that I've been reading
Have now started the act of bleeding
Into one.
So I walk up on high
And I step to the edge
To see my world below.
And I laugh at myself
While the tears roll down.
'Cause it's the world I know.
It's the world I know.
Has the sweet breeze blown?
Has all kindness gone?
Hope still lingers on.
I drink myself of newfound pity
Sitting alone in New York City
And I don't know why.
Are we listening?
Hymns of offering.
Have we eyes to see?
Love is gathering.
All the words that I've been reading
Have now started the act of bleeding
Into one.
So I walk up on high
And I step to the edge
To see my world below.
And I laugh at myself
While the tears roll down.
'Cause it's the world I know.
It's the world I know.
Smashing Young Man lyrics - Collective Soul
Beggar's description
Of what I've been missing
Exploit your position
Don't think I didn't listen
Hey I hope you're feeling
A little better now
Success is so tragic
Pain is your gadget
Your tongue's just lashing
Just bitching by habit
Hey I hope you're feeling
A little purer now
Hey I hope you're feeling
Securer now
Help me I plea
I don't understand
Your ways and means
You smashing young man
Help me to see
The good you have planned
You're wearing thin
You smashing young man
You preach synthetic-like
Peace is an oversight
It's nothing to ignite
Your self-lit spotlight
Hey I hope you're feeling
A little special now
Hey I want to tell you
I think you're special now
I don't recall asking for guidance
I don't recall wanting to
I don't recall bowing before you
But I'm so impressed
With the kindness in your attitude
Of what I've been missing
Exploit your position
Don't think I didn't listen
Hey I hope you're feeling
A little better now
Success is so tragic
Pain is your gadget
Your tongue's just lashing
Just bitching by habit
Hey I hope you're feeling
A little purer now
Hey I hope you're feeling
Securer now
Help me I plea
I don't understand
Your ways and means
You smashing young man
Help me to see
The good you have planned
You're wearing thin
You smashing young man
You preach synthetic-like
Peace is an oversight
It's nothing to ignite
Your self-lit spotlight
Hey I hope you're feeling
A little special now
Hey I want to tell you
I think you're special now
I don't recall asking for guidance
I don't recall wanting to
I don't recall bowing before you
But I'm so impressed
With the kindness in your attitude
December lyrics - Collective Soul
Why drink the water
from my hand?
Contagious as you think I am
Just tilt my sun towards
your domain.
Your cup runneth over again.
Don't scream about
Don't think aloud
Turn your head now baby
Just spit me out
Don't worry about
Don't speak of doubt
Turn your head now baby
Just spit me out
Why follow me to higher ground?
Lost as you swear I am.
Don't throw away your basic needs,
Ambiance and vanity.
December promise you gave unto me
December whispers of treachery
December clouds are now covering me
December songs no longer I sing
from my hand?
Contagious as you think I am
Just tilt my sun towards
your domain.
Your cup runneth over again.
Don't scream about
Don't think aloud
Turn your head now baby
Just spit me out
Don't worry about
Don't speak of doubt
Turn your head now baby
Just spit me out
Why follow me to higher ground?
Lost as you swear I am.
Don't throw away your basic needs,
Ambiance and vanity.
December promise you gave unto me
December whispers of treachery
December clouds are now covering me
December songs no longer I sing
Where The River Flows lyrics - Collective Soul
Give me a moment
Got to get this weight up off my chest
Don't feed me sorrow
Pain is a poison I digest
Find yourself another soul to hold
You think, you thought, I know
Off upon my journey I must go
To where the river flows
I'll give you answers
To the questions you have yet to ask
Silence is beauty
Words they only complicate the task
Make no more wishes
All of my patience has been spent
Gods of the season
Lead me to my next incident
Got to get this weight up off my chest
Don't feed me sorrow
Pain is a poison I digest
Find yourself another soul to hold
You think, you thought, I know
Off upon my journey I must go
To where the river flows
I'll give you answers
To the questions you have yet to ask
Silence is beauty
Words they only complicate the task
Make no more wishes
All of my patience has been spent
Gods of the season
Lead me to my next incident
Gel lyrics - Collective Soul
Color me any color.
Speak to me in tongues and share.
Tell me how you'd love to hate me.
Tell me how you'd love to care.
Well I just want to shake us up.
Let's mingle
And make it well.
Come together now.
Yeah let's gel.
Clothe me in any fashion.
Glitter to so mundane.

Tell me I can stay the same.

Let's mingle
And make it well.
Come together now.
Yeah let's gel.
Well let's bungle
And live to tell
How we came together.
Yeah how we gelled.
Speak to me in tongues and share.

Let's mingle
And make it well.

She Gathers Rain lyrics - Collective Soul
Today she dresses
For the change she's facing now
And the storm that's raging
A safe haven she has found
She doesn't care
What the prophets say anymore
For the love she had
She has no more
So she gathers rain
She gathers rain
To rinse away all her guilt and pain
She gathers rain
She gathers rain
To wash and cleanse and make
her whole again
Her imagination
Has started stretching wide
And her new conviction
No longer will she hide
She's not branded
When prophets speak words of fire
The same love she gives
She requires
So she gathers rain
She gathers rain
To rinse away all her guilt and pain
She gathers rain
She gathers rain
To wash and cleanse and make
her whole again
For the change she's facing now
And the storm that's raging
A safe haven she has found
She doesn't care
What the prophets say anymore
For the love she had
She has no more
So she gathers rain
She gathers rain
To rinse away all her guilt and pain
She gathers rain
She gathers rain
To wash and cleanse and make
her whole again
Her imagination
Has started stretching wide
And her new conviction
No longer will she hide
She's not branded
When prophets speak words of fire
The same love she gives
She requires
So she gathers rain
She gathers rain
To rinse away all her guilt and pain
She gathers rain
She gathers rain
To wash and cleanse and make
her whole again
When The Water Falls lyrics - Collective Soul
She's a picture perfect child
Of innocence.
Searching out in childlike ways
For knowledge.
Now she's questioning her mother
Yeah she's questioning her father
Yeah she's looking for the answers
To the problem that confronts her.
Do you know where the sun goes
When the water falls?
Do you know where the rain goes
When the water falls?
Though I think her subjects could
Run far and wide.
She has centered on the topic
Of the sky.
Now she's questioning her mother
Yeah she's questioning her father
Yeah she's looking for the answers
To the questions that confront her.
Of innocence.
Searching out in childlike ways
For knowledge.
Now she's questioning her mother
Yeah she's questioning her father
Yeah she's looking for the answers
To the problem that confronts her.
Do you know where the sun goes
When the water falls?
Do you know where the rain goes
When the water falls?
Though I think her subjects could
Run far and wide.
She has centered on the topic
Of the sky.
Now she's questioning her mother
Yeah she's questioning her father
Yeah she's looking for the answers
To the questions that confront her.
Collection Of Goods lyrics - Collective Soul
Resonate tones of saving grace
Separate from the gods of hate
Alleviate all our doubting ways
Congregate to more loving days
A collection of peace where we could live
A collection of hope for us to give
A collection of words that mean we care
A collection of love for us to share
Recognize all equality
Vocalize solidarity
Exercise your tranquility
Glamourize all of love's needs
Separate from the gods of hate
Alleviate all our doubting ways
Congregate to more loving days
A collection of peace where we could live
A collection of hope for us to give
A collection of words that mean we care
A collection of love for us to share
Recognize all equality
Vocalize solidarity
Exercise your tranquility
Glamourize all of love's needs
Bleed lyrics - Collective Soul
I think her gun's
unloaded now.
I guess tomorrow
will be after all?
Who made me judge
and jury here?
It seems I'm bearing
witness to her fall.
I don't know why
she cries to me.
(she keeps her pain
as company)
'Cause it's only time
before we all must
bleed.
Mirrors of her
memory
Reflect nothing with
each word she says.
Her views have got
me spinning 'round.
I think she's burning
alters in her head.
unloaded now.
I guess tomorrow
will be after all?
Who made me judge
and jury here?
It seems I'm bearing
witness to her fall.
I don't know why
she cries to me.
(she keeps her pain

Reunion lyrics - Collective Soul
Change will come
Change is here
Love fades out
Then love appears
Now my water's turned to wine
And these thoughts I have
I now claim as mine
I'm coming home
Change has been
Change will be
Time will tell
Then time will ease
Now my curtain has been drawn
And my heart can go
Where my heart does belong
I'm going home
Change is here
Love fades out
Then love appears
Now my water's turned to wine
And these thoughts I have
I now claim as mine
I'm coming home
Change has been
Change will be
Time will tell
Then time will ease
Now my curtain has been drawn
And my heart can go
Where my heart does belong
I'm going home

Goodnight, Good Guy lyrics - Collective Soul
Somebody told me about a worn out distraction
That I had let slip away
Then it comes back and rides my shoulders
And burdens me every new day
Well I'll just sit here like a slow burn out
And try to figure out how to do without you
Who's going to straighten me up when I'm leaning
Who's going to soothe my heart when it's burning
Who's going to be the one to tell me everything's
All right
Well goodnight, good guy
I'll break the bread of a new day and wonder
If faith will carry me along
But days are longer as my heart gets weaker and
I can only stay so strong
Well I'll just sit here like a wounded soul
Who's finding it difficult to just let go
I'm gonna let you sleep
I'll let you fade off in the night
I play the Lord to keep
I pray the Lord to hold you tight
Goodnight.
That I had let slip away
Then it comes back and rides my shoulders
And burdens me every new day
Well I'll just sit here like a slow burn out
And try to figure out how to do without you
Who's going to straighten me up when I'm leaning
Who's going to soothe my heart when it's burning
Who's going to be the one to tell me everything's
All right
Well goodnight, good guy
I'll break the bread of a new day and wonder
If faith will carry me along
But days are longer as my heart gets weaker and
I can only stay so strong
Well I'll just sit here like a wounded soul
Who's finding it difficult to just let go
I'm gonna let you sleep
I'll let you fade off in the night
I play the Lord to keep
I pray the Lord to hold you tight
Goodnight.
Wasting Time lyrics - Collective Soul
Something's going wrong inside of you
Burdens bearing down and seeping through
Well, I don't want to bleed anymore for you
And I don't want to breathe any hatred too
Sitting while you world just floats around
Now you want to move 'cause it's crashing down
Well, I don't want to sing you guarantees
And I don't want to cling to our use to be's
So take your heart, take your soul
Just get yourself on out of here
Yeah, take your hurt, take your pain
Just get yourself on out of here
Wasting time
That's all you'll do if you're waiting for me
Wasting time
I don't see what you think I see
Wasting time
That's all you'll do if you're waiting for me
Wasting time
I don't want what you think I need
Burdens bearing down and seeping through
Well, I don't want to bleed anymore for you
And I don't want to breathe any hatred too
Sitting while you world just floats around
Now you want to move 'cause it's crashing down
Well, I don't want to sing you guarantees
And I don't want to cling to our use to be's
So take your heart, take your soul
Just get yourself on out of here
Yeah, take your hurt, take your pain
Just get yourself on out of here
Wasting time
That's all you'll do if you're waiting for me
Wasting time
I don't see what you think I see
Wasting time
That's all you'll do if you're waiting for me
Wasting time
I don't want what you think I need
Sister Don't Cry lyrics - Collective Soul
Overseas through the air
Touched your heart down with care
All the thoughts left behind
Soon will catch you in time
Well, if I could, you know I would
Let salvation reign on you
So, won't you push away
All this pain that you've been through
Yeah, Sister don't cry
Sister don't cry no more
Sister don't cry anymore
While the scenes shuffle 'round
Let your world anchor down
Pull your heart from your sleeve
First react then believe
You won't always get thunder
To warn you of storms ahead
So bury all this pain
And get on with your life again
Conquer some serenity
Lay yourself in field of poetry
Close you eyes to all you see
Lay your weary head here with me
Touched your heart down with care
All the thoughts left behind
Soon will catch you in time
Well, if I could, you know I would
Let salvation reign on you
So, won't you push away
All this pain that you've been through
Yeah, Sister don't cry
Sister don't cry no more
Sister don't cry anymore
While the scenes shuffle 'round
Let your world anchor down
Pull your heart from your sleeve
First react then believe
You won't always get thunder
To warn you of storms ahead
So bury all this pain
And get on with your life again
Conquer some serenity
Lay yourself in field of poetry
Close you eyes to all you see
Lay your weary head here with me
Love Lifted Me lyrics - Collective Soul
Wait just a second now
Love's easier Lost than found
So learn baby learn
It's time to up and turn the other way
Yeah peace baby peace
It's past time to release and fly away
Once I was down and couldn't see
Then love lifted me
Yeah love; it was love
I believe that love lifted me
Hush not another sound
Time to move up to higher ground
Now time baby time
No longer's on our side so make a way
To ride baby ride
And pull me upon high and fly away
Don't push me, don't shove me
Don't make me go down in flames
Pull me to safety and help me
To feel no more pain
Come on just lift me up
Love's easier Lost than found
So learn baby learn
It's time to up and turn the other way
Yeah peace baby peace
It's past time to release and fly away
Once I was down and couldn't see
Then love lifted me
Yeah love; it was love
I believe that love lifted me
Hush not another sound
Time to move up to higher ground
Now time baby time
No longer's on our side so make a way
To ride baby ride
And pull me upon high and fly away
Don't push me, don't shove me
Don't make me go down in flames
Pull me to safety and help me
To feel no more pain
Come on just lift me up
In A Moment lyrics - Collective Soul
The walls came up as the thoughts went down
To the hush of disparity
Sure we know the problem lies
With some insecurities
But we'll never see eye to eye
As long as our tongues are tied
And we'll never be seen as one
Until we find love
In a moment it could happen
We could wake up and be laughing
In a moment it could happen
We could forgive and be happy
It's a shame our world responds to life
As a puzzle in disguise
I wish our course would lead us towards
The peace and loving kind
But we'll never walk hand in hand
Until we let old wounds mend
And we'll never sing songs as one
Until we find love
In a moment some wisdom could be learned
In a moment new voices could be heard
In a moment we could make heads turn
In a moment we could change
To the hush of disparity
Sure we know the problem lies
With some insecurities
But we'll never see eye to eye
As long as our tongues are tied
And we'll never be seen as one
Until we find love
In a moment it could happen
We could wake up and be laughing
In a moment it could happen
We could forgive and be happy
It's a shame our world responds to life
As a puzzle in disguise
I wish our course would lead us towards
The peace and loving kind
But we'll never walk hand in hand
Until we let old wounds mend
And we'll never sing songs as one
Until we find love
In a moment some wisdom could be learned
In a moment new voices could be heard
In a moment we could make heads turn
In a moment we could change
Heaven's Already Here lyrics - Collective Soul
Wake up to a new morning
Got my babe by my side
Now I won't yield to new warnings
'Cause I got my piece of mind
Who could bring me heaven
When heaven's already here?
No more living in darkness
Now that love lights my way
I don't need any new changes
To make me love today
Got my babe by my side
Now I won't yield to new warnings
'Cause I got my piece of mind
Who could bring me heaven
When heaven's already here?
No more living in darkness
Now that love lights my way
I don't need any new changes
To make me love today
Reach lyrics - Collective Soul
Should I thirst for knowledge
Can I beg you for some water
Should I fight your battles

I hope I'm able to ride out this storm
So come on Gabriel and blow your horn
Reach, Reach out to me
Can't you see I need you to save me

Breathe lyrics - Collective Soul
Down by sea
I think I saw (yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Our love dissolve
So plant a little seed
Soon it starts growing
Shed a little light
Soon we'll be glowing
Hear a little tune
Soon we'll start singing
Give a little love
Then love will start breathing
Out by the bay
I long to be (yeah yeah yeah yeah)
A man of peace
I'm gonna breathe love
Yeah, I'm gonna take a deep breath for you
Come on now people
Come on now breathe
I think I saw (yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Our love dissolve
So plant a little seed
Soon it starts growing
Shed a little light
Soon we'll be glowing
Hear a little tune
Soon we'll start singing
Give a little love
Then love will start breathing
Out by the bay
I long to be (yeah yeah yeah yeah)
A man of peace
I'm gonna breathe love
Yeah, I'm gonna take a deep breath for you
Come on now people
Come on now breathe
Scream lyrics - Collective Soul
Push me to the left, hold me to the right
I never know where to go
Burning that trail to the promised land
You're moving on out of control
Well I don't want to be some puppet on a string
And I don't want to learn of things you can't explain
And I don't want to have your views on everything
I just want to scream
Scream about hurting
Scream about mercy
Scream about something
Scream about nothing
Drop me in the hills, leave me in the plains
Give me some room to breathe
The words you spill, the moves you make
I find them all hard to believe
Well I don't want to be statistic industry
And I don't want to give when all you share is greed
And I don't want to have one more enemy
I just want to scream
There you go with all your might
Giving promises by decree
Well God is great and God is good
But God you'll never be
Well I don't want to be in your hospitality
And I don't want to live in false reality
See I'm the one obsessed with truth and honesty
I just want to scream
I never know where to go
Burning that trail to the promised land
You're moving on out of control
Well I don't want to be some puppet on a string
And I don't want to learn of things you can't explain
And I don't want to have your views on everything
I just want to scream
Scream about hurting
Scream about mercy
Scream about something
Scream about nothing
Drop me in the hills, leave me in the plains
Give me some room to breathe
The words you spill, the moves you make
I find them all hard to believe
Well I don't want to be statistic industry
And I don't want to give when all you share is greed
And I don't want to have one more enemy
I just want to scream
There you go with all your might
Giving promises by decree
Well God is great and God is good
But God you'll never be
Well I don't want to be in your hospitality
And I don't want to live in false reality
See I'm the one obsessed with truth and honesty
I just want to scream
Burning Bridges lyrics - Collective Soul
Been thinking a lot about my ways
Guess I'm trying baby
Been searching out a way to say
Guess I'm sorry baby
This time I give all to you
It's time I prove something to you
So I'll lift you up and hold you near
Warm your heart and calm you fears
See I don't want to lose this love I found
So I'll burn my bridges, burn them down
Been hurting a lot without you here
Guess I need you baby
Been sleeping upon a bed of tears
Guess I miss you baby
This time I give all to you
It's time I prove something to you
Take all my world and shake it
Take my dear heart and embrace it
Take what I say and listen
My world's changing, changing for you
Guess I'm trying baby
Been searching out a way to say
Guess I'm sorry baby
This time I give all to you
It's time I prove something to you
So I'll lift you up and hold you near
Warm your heart and calm you fears
See I don't want to lose this love I found
So I'll burn my bridges, burn them down
Been hurting a lot without you here
Guess I need you baby
Been sleeping upon a bed of tears
Guess I miss you baby
This time I give all to you
It's time I prove something to you
Take all my world and shake it
Take my dear heart and embrace it
Take what I say and listen
My world's changing, changing for you
All lyrics - Collective Soul
Watch my world spin round
It stops for you
I'll give you heaven for a view
I set my sights on high my aim is true
I'd walk on water just for you
All is all I can give you
All is all I can do
All is all I wish for when I'm with you
Come lay your troubles down
Rest here with me
My kingdom is all yours to receive
Well, I'll push the clouds away
So you can have sunshine
I'll give you anything that your heart desires
It stops for you
I'll give you heaven for a view
I set my sights on high my aim is true
I'd walk on water just for you
All is all I can give you
All is all I can do
All is all I wish for when I'm with you
Come lay your troubles down
Rest here with me
My kingdom is all yours to receive
Well, I'll push the clouds away
So you can have sunshine
I'll give you anything that your heart desires
Beautiful World lyrics - Collective Soul
In the morning
Hope is whispering to me quietly...quietly
Some confusion
Seems to reign continuously over me...over me
Though I walk through the valley
No more shadows will cover me
Yeah yeah
Now you've opened my eyes
It's a beautiful world
When I've got you here to hold
It's a beautiful world
Where all Heaven's light is shown
It's a beautiful world
When I've got you here to hold
It's a beautiful world
When I just let love take control
In the evening
Faith is watching over me, I believe..that I believe
As I'm lying
In arms of security I can see...yeah I see
All the ways you have given
In my hour of blinding need
Yeah yeah
Now you've opened my eyes
It's a beautiful world
When I've got you here to hold
It's a beautiful world
Where all Heaven's light is shown
It's a beautiful world
When I've got you here to hold
It's a beautiful world
When I just let love take control
The only way to hope is through tears
The only way to faith is through fear
The only way to love is when you kneel
Yeah yeah
Now you've opened my eyes
It's a beautiful world
When I've got you here to hold
It's a beautiful world
Where all Heaven's light is shown
It's a beautiful world
When I've got you here to hold
It's a beautiful world
When I just let love take control
Hope is whispering to me quietly...quietly
Some confusion
Seems to reign continuously over me...over me
Though I walk through the valley
No more shadows will cover me
Yeah yeah
Now you've opened my eyes
It's a beautiful world
When I've got you here to hold
It's a beautiful world
Where all Heaven's light is shown
It's a beautiful world
When I've got you here to hold
It's a beautiful world
When I just let love take control
In the evening
Faith is watching over me, I believe..that I believe
As I'm lying
In arms of security I can see...yeah I see
All the ways you have given
In my hour of blinding need
Yeah yeah
Now you've opened my eyes
It's a beautiful world
When I've got you here to hold
It's a beautiful world
Where all Heaven's light is shown
It's a beautiful world
When I've got you here to hold
It's a beautiful world
When I just let love take control
The only way to hope is through tears
The only way to faith is through fear
The only way to love is when you kneel
Yeah yeah
Now you've opened my eyes
It's a beautiful world
When I've got you here to hold
It's a beautiful world
Where all Heaven's light is shown
It's a beautiful world
When I've got you here to hold
It's a beautiful world
When I just let love take control
