"See What You Started By Continuing" (2015)

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?

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]

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]

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 won't bring you down
I only want a lover
I only want a lover
Only want a lover like you

[Chorus x2]

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?

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]

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]

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]

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?

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

Without Me lyrics - Collective Soul

Love won’t let you down
Love won’t lift you up
Love won’t do a thing
Without me

Love won’t be defined
Love won’t realize
Love won’t do a thing
Without me

Love won’t take you in
Love won’t let you out
Love won’t do a thing
Without me

Love won’t be concealed
Love won’t be revealed
Love won’t do a thing
Without me

Ooooh oooooh oooooh alright
Won’t do a thing without me
Love love
Won’t do a thing without me
Said love won't love won’t
Love won’t do a thing without me
Love won’t love won’t
Love won’t do a thing without me
Love won’t love won’t
Love won’t do a thing without me

Good morning, sunshine bring on your pain
Oh, sweet Jesus, I swear I'll
I'll never taste it again
Not tonight, not tonight

Oh no, okay, so let's go

But I was fuzzy then, yeah, fuzzy, oh

Twinkling starlight, yeah, it's time to write
Why here? It's now or never
'Cause it's my time to shine
Not tonight, not tonight

Oh no, okay, so let's go

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
Leaves us more to fix
So hey, hey baby, do we dig on that?
Or hey, hey baby, do we dig on this?

We say we're up then we say we're down
We say we're up then we say we're down
We say we're up then we say we're down
We say we're up then we say we're down

We say we're up then we say we're down
We say we're up then we say we're down

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
Leaves us more to fix
So hey, hey baby, do we dig on that?
Or hey, hey baby, do we dig on this?

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?
See, I can say I've loved
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?
Who can learn what's right by your ways?
See, I can say I've loved
I can say I've tried, tried in my days

Yeah, have you learned? Yeah, have you learned?
Yeah, have you learned by your ways?
See, I have learned, yeah, I have learned
Yeah, I have learned in my days

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?

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

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?

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

Yeah, yeah, my baby, she does
Yeah, yeah, my baby, she does
Yeah, yeah, my baby, she does

Lighten Up lyrics - Collective Soul

Oh, you think it but you can't believe
So you say it's like that
Yeah, you see it but you can't be seen
Now is it like that?

So, hey, hey, hey, yeah, where you coming from?
Hey, hey, hey, we are all an equal some
Hey, hey, hey, you got the attitude
That everything's important 'cause the news is always new to you

You're not underground
You're just silly now
Oh, my foolish pup lighten up
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, lighten up

Hey, you want it but you can't receive
So you say it's like that
Hey, you know it but you can't agree
Now is it like that?

So, hey, hey, hey, yeah, where you coming from?
Hey, hey, hey, we are all an equal some
Hey, hey, hey, you got the attitude
That everything's important 'cause the news is always new to you

You're not underground
You're just silly now
Oh, my foolish pup lighten up
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, lighten up

You're not underground
You're just silly now
Oh, my foolish pup lighten up
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, lighten up

Be careful with the tongue
Then softer with the words you choose
Take your time, take your time
Take your time to find your own groove

Hey, hey, when information comes around
Hey, hey, well, let a message be found
Hey, hey, has your conviction sold out?
Hey, hey, has your conviction sold out?

You're not underground
You're just silly now
Oh, my foolish pup lighten up
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, lighten up

You're not underground
You're just silly now
Oh, my foolish pup lighten up
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, lighten up

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, lighten up
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, lighten up
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, lighten up

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

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

Heart To Heart lyrics - Collective Soul

1/2 step down
(1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4)

We'll talk about the sky and how it shines
We'll talk about the seas and the Ocean's tide
We'll talk about pain we all receive
We'll talk about hope and how you'll believe, you'll learn to believe...

[Chorus:]
Ohh Ohh, here I go
Ohh Ohh, this is all I know
Ohh Ohh, it's time to start
Ohh Ohh, a heart to heart

We'll talk about sights you will see
We'll talk about songs you'll learn to sing
We'll talk about Mom, we'll talk about me
We'll talk about love and what it means, cause love's all you'll need...

[Chorus]

And I'm only hear to teach
Yeah I'm only hear to learn
Cause sooner than you'll think
Boy it'll be your turn
So no excuses, no complaints, no restrictions, no restraints for...

You [4x] [Chorus]

[Chorus 2x]

Heart to heart [4x]

"Afterwords" (2007)

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

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]

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]

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]

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 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

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]

Hollywood lyrics - Collective Soul

Summer it never leaves your face
You've got the sunshine
Bright-eyed California
Cotton candy taste

Yeah Hollywood
You know I love you more
Than one man should
Yeah Hollywood

Kiss me kiss me good

Oh pretty stars
They love to sparkle for you
You've got that hip lock
Lay it back
Animated groove attitude

[chorus]

Persuasion Of You lyrics - Collective Soul

I've got a memory of nothing new
I've only memorized all thoughts of you
I'm pushing all tomorrows
Gotta go, gotta go, gotta get you back
I'm pushing all thoughts forward

'Cause you are the one day
That tells me that someday
I'll get whay you choose
You are the one thing
That gives me that something
Persuasion of you

I feel you resonate, I swear I do

You got my earth vibrating no matter
Where I'm running to
I'm pushing all tomorrows
Gotta go, gotta go 'til I get you back
I'm pushing all thoughts forward

[chorus]

Don't hold back
Hold back my world
Don't hold back
Hold back now girl

[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

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]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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
I've batten all the hatches down
I've taken all of your prescriptions but no remedy I've found

[Chorus:]
Counting the Days (yeah)
Until some freedom can scream my name
Counting the Days (yeah)
Until the gods break these chains.

hey baby are you watching
I'm saddling for your side show
I never want to become precious
This life is so touch and go

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
Dig it, get it, dig it what your looking for?
Dig it, get it, dig it what your searching for?
Dig it, get it, dig it yeah, dig
Yeah, dig

[Chorus]

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
yeah you're beautiful my love under heaven's skies

If ever you think careless is the night
I'll comfort you with silence 'til the morning light
Wherever you turn, wherever you may roam
Whatever you conquer, I'll always be your home

Cause you're beautiful my love, when I close my eyes
yeah you're beautiful my love, under heaven's skies

Yeah you fly me through your skies of harmony,
And you lay me down with words of honesty
Yeah you're beautiful, you're beautiful here with me.

Yeah you're beautiful my love, when I close my eyes
yeah you're beautiful my love, under heaven's skies

Yeah you're beautiful my love
Yeah you're beautiful my love
Yeah you're beautiful my love

Yeah you're beautiful my love
Yeah you're beautiful my love
Yeah you're beautiful my love

Yeah you're beautiful my love
Yeah you're beautiful my love
Yeah you're beautiful my love

Yeah you're beautiful my love
Yeah you're beautiful my love
Under heaven’s skies

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

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
