Total eclipse of the sun There’s nothing left of us Nothing left of what we This love has come undone It’s a totally eclipse of the sun I’m just a vagabond I’m chained to your hotel chair No way out nowhere to run It’s a totally eclipse of the sun Faded hearts Black hole love There’s no used to crawl away It’s a totally eclipse of the sun I’m on your pedestal I’m lost down to the wire You killed my soul and ghosted me It’s a total eclipse of the sun The black hole sky rem Lost weapons of the past Nothing left to hold us now It’s a totally eclipse of the sun Try to fill the void within I am old and tired of war I am the emptiness I’m the total eclipse of the sun Am F C G

Remember 93 03:38
Remember 93 Remember, 93 Like it was 30 years ago I was just a kid 14 years old Summer heat was hot Laughing in the sun Remembering those times Always gets me numb I got a picture somewhere of you I got the guy that once was above you I know you might not even remember But that was just the way things were Remember, 93 Listening to the radio We never had so much to say We never had iPhones Sitting by the lake The sunshine on our skin We were only kids Sometimes you just can’t win G C D

No escape room No escape room It’s all painted black Now I’m alive I’m a nothing No escape room Feel that even flow You cannot find a better man Feel the undertow I’m sober I’m clean Get off of my cloud Times on my side You can’t drag me away You’re empty You’re vacant Get under my thumb My shadow wall Will swallow the darkness in me No escape room Now that I’ve spoken This is my wish list It’s my eulogy No escape room I know the pieces fit Lost in the schism Don’t play with fire Em C G D

What happened to our life? I’m falling Backwards through time I lost the rhyme I lost the rhyme I lost the meaning of it all I lost the meaning of Chorus Don’t think about it Don’t think about it Anymore And you Don’t think about it Don’t think about it Anymore G D Em C

The Nothingness The nothingness it’s always chasing Emptiness alone as I’m aging Into oblivion into the setting sun Her sweet caress is vanishing slowly In my duress the house of the holy Worn out vagabonds into the light we gaze upon Nobody warned me nobody told me about the fate of love the fate of what once was Nobody showed me no one could hold me When I was alone cast out like a stone Into the nothingness There you are lost in December The fallen leaves the ashes of embers Helpless in the night, the fire once was so bright Hello there will you remember You know where back in September? Summer passed away her love it fades to gray Nobody warned me nobody told me About the fate of love the fate of what once was Nobody showed me no one could hold me When I was alone, cast out like a stone Into the nothingness The nothingness G C Bm D

Android lover I’ve been chasing the sun I’ve been chasing the field of emotion I’ve been chasing the sun I’ve been chasing the empty commotion When she dances in the night When she dances like an android woman When she dances in the night When she dances like a robot lover Dark love Cold love Dark love Cold love I’ve been out on the town I’ve been out in the dark delusion I’ve been out on the town I’ve been out in the manic confusion When she dances in the night When she dances like a kamikaze pilot When she dances in the night When she dances like a poisonous violet I’ve been chasing the moon Been chasing the smell of the ocean I’ve been chasing the moon I’ve been chasing the waves in the motion Em

California’s Burning California’s burning California burning Wait by the red line She’s a deadly daughter She’s a deadly daughter Feeling the side of nowhere man It’s a red hot Summer It’s a red hot Summer Burn baby burn, baby burn Burn out all night Burn out the light Burn baby burn, baby burn California’s burning California’s burning She gonna sink into the sea And now you’re underwater And now you’re underwater Wait for someone to rescue you and me You and me It’s a red hot Summer It’s a red hot Summer baby Burn burn out burn into the wind Now you’re under water Now you’re underwater Burn baby burn into the sea California is burning California is burning Paid for all Her sins of yesterday Now you’re in the water Now you’re in the water And your love is sinking down into the sea Yea yea yea It’s a red hot Summer It’s a red hot summer Burn baby burn into the sea Burn Just burn That’s like a fire reigning down on me California’s burn California is burning And Now she’s sinking down into the sea California’s burning California’s burning Rain down, Armageddon rain down on you and me Yea yea Em

Free From The Chains Guess you wanted to see What it was to be free Guess you wanted to see What it was to be free Free from the chains Free from the chains Free from the chains Free from the chains Inside your mind Mind Inside your mind Wonder what it’s all about You wonder where we’re going to now? It’s all just an illusion Happiness is just confusion Free from the chains Free from the chains Free from the chains Free from the chains Inside your mind Inside your mind Inside your mind Inside your mind Free from the chains Free from the chains Free from the chains Free from the chains A5
