Now's The Time lyrics - Collective Soul

Wake up talking in my sleep

The Virgin Mary comforts me

A new storm settles in

So I pray for her in my defense

Oceans giving up their shores

While we're prepping for the third World War

A line is drawn in the sand

The words I don't understand

Now's the time for pushing

Now's the time to shove

Now's the time to change that (yeah)

Now's the time, now's the time for love

We live in good company

Dreaming up our next disease

Everybody draws their sword

In the name of their own sweet Lord

Now's the time for pushing (no)

Now's the time to shove (no)

Now's the time to change that (yeah)

Now's the time, now's the time for love

Now's the time for pushing (no)

Now's the time to shove (no)

Now's the time to change that (yeah)

Now's the time, now's the time

Now's the time for pushing (no)

Now's the time to shove (no)

Now's the time to fuck that (yeah)

Now's the time, now's the time for love

Now's the time for love

Now's the time for love

Now's the time for love

Now's the time

Over Me lyrics - Collective Soul

Sister says she's feeling sick

Gather up a crucifix

Something's going on

Daddy says he's feeling great

Watch the local news at eight

Something's going wrong

Something's going on

So, who's over me?

Yeah, who's over me?

Woman says she feels divine

Living off the pills and wine

Some things last too long

Something's going on

So, who's over me?

Yeah, who's over me?

Who's over me?

Yeah, who's over me?

Crushed lyrics - Collective Soul

Hey, little girl, what ya living with?

The 90's rocked but they've come and went

You got some heart but you need more soul

Yeah, dig down deep till you find that gold

The whole world is your pain

Who's to b-b-b-b-blame?

Another lover you drained

You're c-c-crushed once again

Hey, little girl, what ya speaking of?

Life is hard, yeah life is tough

What's this attitude?

Back it up slow till you catch that groove

The whole world is your pain

Who's to b-b-b-b-blame?

Another lover you drained

You're c-c-crushed once again

There's something in your eyes

There's something with your lies

There's something in your eyes

There's something with your lies!

The whole world is your pain

Who's to b-b-b-b-blame?

Another lover you drained

You're c-c-crushed once again

The whole world is your pain

Do you blame cocaine?

Another lover you drained

You're c-c-crushed once again

Yeah

Right As Rain lyrics - Collective Soul

Got a cross I do bear

It's a Jesus piece I wear

But I don't

No, I don't know if it makes me whole

Got success in my veins

And a lover knows my name

But I don't

No, I don't know if it makes me whole

No, I don't

No, I don't know if it makes me whole

All my days

Move crazed like a runaway train

Still I pray

That tomorrow

Will be right as rain

Got some faith, I concede

Just a curse of memories

But I don't

No, I don't know if it makes me whole

No, I don't

No, I don't know if it makes me whole

All my days

Move crazed like a runaway train

Still I pray

That tomorrow

Will be right as rain

I can see past lovers through the tears

I can feel the memories from all the years

All my days

Move crazed like a runaway train

Still I pray

That tomorrow

Will be right as rain

Right as rain

Right as rain

Right as rain

Right as rain

Them Blues lyrics - Collective Soul

Girlfriend's been trippin', I heard her say

She changes hair colors just to match the day

What in the world, what in the world

What in the world's going on in your world

Run away, play a tune

Dance it off baby like you used to do

Drive away, find a view

Shake it off baby it's just...

Them blues

Girlfriend's been seein' some therapist

It really hasn't made any difference

What in the world, what in the world

What in the world's going on in your world

Run away, play a tune

Dance it off baby like you used to do

Drive away, find a view

Shake it off baby it's just...

Them blues

Run away, play a tune

Dance it off baby like you used to do

Drive away, find a view

Shake it off baby it's just them blues

Run away, play a tune

Dance it off baby like you used to do

Drive away, find a view

Shake it off baby it's just...

Them blues

Good Place To Start lyrics - Collective Soul

There's a guy with a gun

He swears he's the chosen one

I think his pride is swollen with inflammation

We got weed we can't smoke

But the prescriptions are afloat

My temple can't take all this information

So, let's get hi-high, hi-high

Let's love where we've been

And love where we are

Yeah, that's a good place to start

A good place to start

There's tourists in flocks

I think we killed lady luck

Or at least that's what they say

There's moments I'm involved

And there's moments I can't solve

But I take all these moments day by day

So, let's get hi-high, hi-high

Let's love where we've been

And love where we are

Yeah, that's a good place to start

A good place to start

Whose rules are we breaking down?

Who rules the world now, now?

Let's get hi-high, hi-high

Let's love where we've been

And love where we are

That's a good place to start

A good place

Let's get hi-high, hi-high

Let's love who we've been

And love who we are

Yeah, that's a good place to start

A good place to start

That's a good place to start

Yeah, a good place to start

That's a good place to start

Observation Of Thoughts lyrics - Collective Soul

God damn this moment, God damn what lies ahead

I'm just a sinner reaching for his savior's hand

I feel like a useless joke in some comedy

I feel like a promise broken for eternity

So, lay it on down

Lay it on down

Lay it all on me

Yeah, lay it on down

Lay it on down

Lay it on a man in need

God damn this moment, God damn what's yet to be

I'm just a question whose answers always seem to bleed

I feel like a soldier waiting for the bullet's burn

I feel like a wise man who knows he wasn't blessed to learn

So, lay it on down

Lay it on down

Lay it all on me

Yeah, lay it on down

Lay it on down

Lay it on a man in need

Lay it on down

On down

On a man in need

Lay it on down

On down

On a man in need

Lay it on down

Lay it on down

Lay it all on me

Lay it on down

Lay it on down

Lay it all on me

Oh, lay it down

Oh, lay it down

Down on me

Oh, lay it down

Oh, lay it down

Down on me

God damn this moment, God damn what tomorrow brings

Changed lyrics - Collective Soul

You told me time and time

With pride, I just ignored

I was precious in the flesh

Still bitter through the core

As this night breathes slow

And the Earth makes no sound

There's comfort in this moment

Of the man I am now

When the morning breaks

When the morning breaks

I'll be holding you, girl

'Cause I'm a man that changed

When the morning breaks

When the morning breaks

I'll be loving you, girl

'Cause I'm a man that changed

All the complications

That were mine and mine alone

You were patient in the seasons

Of which I learned to grow

I'm giving my confession

As this day closes down

There's reason for my comfort

It's the man you made me now

When the morning breaks

When the morning breaks

I'll be holding you, girl

'Cause I'm a man that changed

When the morning breaks

When the morning breaks

I'll be loving you, girl

'Cause I'm a man that changed

Winter's turning into spring

Blooming hope for me to sing of love

Summer burns while fall conceives

Leaving me with words to sing of love

When the morning breaks

When the morning breaks

I'll be holding you, girl

'Cause I'm a man that changed

When the morning breaks

When the morning breaks

I'll be holding you, girl

'Cause I'm a man that changed

When the morning breaks

When the morning breaks

I'll be loving you, girl

'Cause I'm a man that changed

Big Sky lyrics - Collective Soul

Conversation brings us

Life's peculiar ways

No warning signs ahead

Our breaths are breathing slower

Some hearts misunderstood

So much is left to be said

Big sky, one day we'll see and know we're not alone

Big sky, one day we'll feel and know it's all our home

The pouring of affection

The gardening of love

How could one want to stray?

All properties we covet

Give guarantees of what

They just get in the way

Big sky, one day we'll see and know we're not alone

Big sky, one day we'll feel and know it's all our home

See space

See space moving out

See space

Space is moving now

Big sky, one day we'll see and know we're not alone

Big sky, one day we'll feel and know it's all our home

Big sky, one day we'll see and know we're not alone

Big sky, one day we'll feel and know it all, come home

Porch Swing lyrics - Collective Soul

Everybody swears, they care, they share

Opinions I don't wanna hear

Everybody lies then tries to hide

Underneath their social fears

I am made of simple thread, a common man

Wanting peace for one and all

I am just a comedy in life's symphony

Listening for some resolve

So, I won't mind, mind when you're gone

No, I won't mind, mind when you're gone

I'll just be here on my porch swing

Rocking all day long

Everybody's bruised from news that use

Words to further their own cause

Everybody needs to bleed to see

We're all humans after all

I am made of simple thread, a common man

Wanting peace for one and all

I am just a comedy in life's symphony

Listening for some resolve

So, I won't mind, mind when you're gone

No, I won't mind, mind when you're gone

I'll just be here on my porch swing

Rocking all day long

Let the summer breeze

Cool our needs, right or wrong

Let tomorrow bring

Love to move us on

'Til then, I'll be here on my porch swing

Rocking all day long

I'll just be here on my porch swing

'Til I write the next song

Rocking on my porch swing

All night long

Rocking on my porch swing

All night long

Rocking on my porch swing

All night long

Burn lyrics - Collective Soul

Not busy

Got time

Got compliments with every line

Got more

Got less

I've got the real thing pain can't protect

So don't talk the talk when you don't believe

Don't give me oil, I need gasoline

Baby, wanna burn with me?

Don't cry a tear when you cop a plea

Don't talk of life's little miseries

Baby, just burn

Got silence

Got noise

Got resolution in my voice

Got heart

Got gold

Got the combination to my soul

So don't talk the talk when you don't believe

Don't give me oil, I need gasoline

Baby, wanna burn with me?

Don't cry a tear when you cop a plea

Don't talk of life's little miseries

Baby, just burn

So don't talk the talk when you don't believe

Don't give me oil, I need gasoline

Baby, wanna burn with me?

Don't cry a tear when you cop a plea

Don't talk of life's little miseries

Baby, just burn with me

Don't talk the shit when you don't believe

Don't give me oil, I need gasoline

Baby, wanna burn with me?

Don't cry a tear when you cop a plea

Don't talk of life's little miseries

Baby, just burn!

Energy lyrics - Collective Soul

Mother and child

I'm such a man for a short while

And promises be

The world just spins faster than me

(Come on, come on, come on)

And all of your friends, I hear are whispering

I think you left me for the government

And all of your friends, I hope are listening

I wish you'd stop wasting all my energy

In beauty or beast

(Beauty or beast)

Who's my character to be

I'm now covering

(I'm now covering)

All the makeup that makes me

(Come on, come on, come on)

And all of your friends are now whispering

I think you left me for the government

And all of your friends, I hope are listening

I wish you'd stop sucking all my energy

And all of your friends are still whispering

I think you left me for the government

And all of your friends, I hope are listening

I wish you'd stop wasting all my energy

You got it, you got it

Come on

And all of your friends are now whispering

I think you left me for the government

And all of your friends, I hope are listening

I wish you'd stop sucking all my energy

And all of your friends are still whispering

I think you left me for the government

And all of your friends, I hope are listening

I wish you'd stop wasting all my energy

(Energy, energy, energy, energy, oh)

I wish you'd stop wasting all my energy

(Energy, energy, energy, energy, oh)

I wish you'd stop wasting all my energy

Next Homecoming lyrics - Collective Soul

I leave the cage wide open

I give no words of caution dear

So when you're done revolving

I only ask your presence here

In the morning when I slow

And the sun soon explodes

I need the world to be controlled

And in the evening when I leave

I need a reason to believe

In the next homecoming, yeah

I cleared the road wide open

So put your hand on the wheel and steer

Don't drain this conversation

To only fill it back with tears

In the morning when I slow

And the sun soon explodes

I need the world to be controlled

And in the evening when I leave

I need a reason to believe

In the next homecoming, yeah

In the morning when I slow

And the sun soon explodes

I need the world to be controlled

And in the evening when I leave

I need a reason to believe

In the next homecoming, yeah

Homecoming

Homecoming

Homecoming

Now You've Got Me Drinkin' lyrics - Collective Soul

Now you've got me drinkin'

Don't let me drink alone

Now my heart is achin'

Don't let it turn to stone

Now my world is changing

And I don't know where to go

Now you've got me drinkin'

Don't let me drink alone

Well I've got a photograph

Of how life used to be

So sit right here now girl,

And have a shot of sympathy

Now you've got me drinkin'

Don't let me drink alone

Now my heart is achin'

Don't let it turn to stone

Now my world is changing

And I don't know where to go

Now you've got me drinkin'

Don't let me drink alone

I've got a photograph

Of how life used to be

So sit right here now girl,

And have a shot of sympathy

Now you've got me drinkin'

Don't let me drink alone

Now my heart is achin'

Don't let it turn to stone

Now my world is changing

And I don't know where to go

Now you've got me drinkin'

Don't let me drink alone

Now you've got me drinkin'

Don't let me drink alone

Youth lyrics - Collective Soul

And you said we would be golden when we grow old

And you said we'd never be broken when we grow old

But if a river can dry to dust

I guess the angels we learn to trust can fly away

Like a mountain can lose its peak

I now know a heart can change its needs quietly

And you said we'd never be parted when we grow old

And you said I'll see you in heaven when we grow old

But if a river can dry to dust

I guess the angels we learn to trust can fly away

Like a mountain can lose its peak

I now know a heart can change its needs quietly

And so goodbye, come tomorrow; goodbye, come tomorrow

Goodbye, goodbye

Yeah, goodbye, come tomorrow; goodbye, come tomorrow

Goodbye goodbye

And you said we would be golden when we grow old
