We were raised under Grey skies But you'll never hear us complain Oh, and father led the examples Of how to draw beauty from pain So I found a thousand springtimes in her eyes And I learned to play games in the rain Oh, when you left us you didn't really go I know you're watching me from my head to my toes And I will not go without, I won't walk without you, no And truth be told, everybody knows You put the food on my plate and you gave me my clothes And I will not go without, I won't walk without you, no I find the touch of your hand in the breeze And the light of your smile in sun rays You should know I hear the sound of your voice in music So I speak with you every day Oh, when you left us you didn't really go I know you're watching me from my head to my toes And I will not go without, I won't walk without you, no And truth be told, everybody knows You put the food on my plate and you gave me my clothes And I will not go without, I won't walk without you, no, oh oh We have overcome 'cause of what you've done And it's plain to see that you're here with me We have overcome 'cause of what you've done And it's plain to see that you're here with me, oh, no When you left us you didn't really go I know you're watching me from my head to my toes And I will not go without, I won't walk without you, no And truth be told, everybody knows You put the food on my plate and you gave me my clothes And I will not go without, I won't walk without you, no When you left us you didn't really go I know you're watching me from my head to my toes And I will not go without, I won't walk without you, no And truth be told, everybody knows You put the food on my plate and you gave me my clothes And I will not go, I won't walk (oh no, oh no)

Drifting apart, getting harder to hold you Days getting dark and the nights are growing cold Are we burning out? Swept out of sight, rolling out on an ocean Let's cut all the ropes and get lost in the moment If our hearts are alive, maybe then they might Send us back to the sun Now I know, I know That we're losing light, our love is dying Out cold on the floor Like a fallen star that shines no more Take, take me back to where it was before When we were on fire Fire Head down, heading underground feeling wasted Cold to the bone, so alone I can taste it Let's light it up Streets are alive now and everything's bracing You're on my mind, running in my veins Fueling the flame, let's start it again And I know, I know That we're losing light, our love is dying Out cold on the floor Like a fallen star that shines no more Take, take me back to where it was before When we were on fire Fire We were on fire Fire Oh woah-oh oh woah-oh oh Now don't tell me, no, that we're burning down Oh woah-oh oh woah-oh oh And don't tell me, no, that we're burning now 'Cause I know, I know That we're losing light and our love is dying Take, take me home Back to where it was before When we were on fire Fire And I know, I know There're losing light, our love is dying Out cold on the floor Like a fallen star that shines no more Just take, take me back to where it was before When we were on fire Fire When we were on fire Fire

He died alone. He died on impact. And all this talk of death, Has really brightened up my week. And the smell of sweat, Really helps me sleep. We act alone. We act on impulse. And all this talk of death, Has really brightened up my week. And the smell of sweat, Really helps me sleep. He died alone. We act alone. We act on impulse. We act alone. We act on impulse.

I was born in a hurricane Nothing to lose and everything to gain Ran before I walked Reaching for the top Out of control just like a runaway train I never walked on the narrow path I always wanted what I didn't have All was not enough Riding lady luck Driving in the fast lane and just stepped on the gas Cause I was raised on rock My dad was howling but my heart was a rolling stone Yeah I was raised on rock My mama said I had a devil to scratch my soul And I was raised on rock Raised on rock Shoot me up baby make me high And hit the jackpot in the heat of the night Wanna kiss your lips Wanna move your hips See my desire in your laser-beam eyes You shake me up got me spinning round You know whats going up must come down Tomorrow I'll be gone A million miles from home The only road I know leads out of town Cause I was raised on rock My dad was howling but my heart was a rolling stone Yeah I was raised on rock My mama said I had a devil to scratch my soul And I was raised on rock Raised on rock Growing up with the guitar men Growing up way too fast Follow the sound of a rocknroll band This call will always last Cause I was raised on rock My dad was howling but my heart was a rolling stone Yeah I was raised on rock My mama said I had a devil to scratch my soul Cause I was raised on rock Cause I was raised on rock Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
