Amazon 02:37
She is tall and voluptuous Giant to the rest of us Beads and feathers hang from her hair Python round her shoulders bare When she wails out a battle song You should fear the amazon She is clothed in a leopard fur Bones and teeth hang off of her Her body is her weapon here You should cower when she's near When she wails out a battle song You should fear the amazon

Chasin' Tail 04:10
I've put you down so you can't howl or wail I've put you down so you can't howl or wail You're a dog not a man now, you were always chasin tail When I just can't reach you, you won't answer your phone When I just can't reach you, you won't answer your phone Hell I know that you're out there looking for somewhere new to hide your bone

Stranger look in to my face there's but a trace of the child before Go on dig into my past old photographs won't show what's in store Tell my mother and my father please not to weep anew They don't need to add their shame to all the hell that I've lived through Oh the wheels grind slow now but I feel them roll with every note Oh circle the crows now to feed on the words that spill from my throat they are Listen up I am the whistleblower it's time you paid the Piper's toll I never thought I'd be the whistleblower tonight you're gonna take a mighty fall If you ask me what you'll find just what's behind the Mona Lisa smile You won't look at me the same and you'll remain unsettled for a while I remember every tear I was near drowning in the flood Of something bitter and so stale and it flows much thicker than blood

Chi Sau 05:30
If you ever wonder what has brought me here today I'm hiding scars of battles and they won't ever fade away So master and brothers I whisper these words as I bow For strength I'm regaining I thank you for training me in chi sau Our hands are swiftly rolling like you've asked me for this dance I learn to read intention, I'll move through you every chance I don't mind the bruises, reminders I'm still standing now For strength I'm regaining I thank you for training me in chi sau

Dreamcatcher 03:17
Wake in cold sweats and I'm losin' sleep The scenes in my head make my skin creep Would you be my dreamcatcher, would you be my dreamcatcher baby When you kiss me, you hold me tight I might be screaming but not from fright Would you be my dreamcatcher, would you be my dreamcatcher baby Night has fallen it's turned pitch black You're like counting sheep to insomniacs Would you be my dreamcatcher, would you be my dreamcatcher baby

Highway Time 04:18
Ribbon made of blacktop up and down I go Fuel is my only stop deadline don't you know I'm serving 99 doing highway time Cameras for my red lights, cameras for my speed Sober and not reckless, my pocket book will bleed I'm serving 99 doing highway time Planes fly over my head, wishing that was me I have drawn the short straw once again I see I'm serving 99 doing highway time

This is the last time I walk away from you This is the last time you cross that line, leave me hurting, I'll walk away from you Ain't gonna drag the chain bite down the pain I'm getting a bleeding heart tattoo I head down to the parlor I'm gonna get some ink Something to remind me of how love can really stink This is the last time I walk away from you Ain't gonna drag the chain bite down the pain I'm getting a bleeding heart tattoo I'm getting tired of waking feeling so blue I'm getting so tired of my dreams fired up in smoke and waking feeling so blue Ain't gonna drag the chain bite down the pain I'm getting a bleeding heart tattoo

How'd I get it so wrong I thought you were made for me But when you hit the bottle boy you mean it literally You're a great big baby that's why I'm leaving you You're such a great big baby that I find it so hard to do I wore flat heels made for dancing and the joint began to hop You said bedtime's come and gone, mister it's only six o'clock You're a great big baby that's why I'm leaving you You're such a great big baby that I find it so hard to do When speaking with me darling I'd swear that you're obsessed Cos you can't look me in the eye it's always in the chest You're a great big baby that's why I'm leaving you You're such a great big baby that I find it so hard to do You may think that I'm babbling and it sure sounds mighty strange But this time round I think that I'm the one who needs a change You're a great big baby that's why I'm leaving you You're such a great big baby that I find it so hard to do
