Come a Little Closer Lyrics & Meanings: Time shakes, found you at the water / At first you were my father, now I love you like a brother / Earthquakes shake the dust behind you / This world at times will blind you / Still I know I'll see you there / / Come a little closer, then you'll see / Come on, come on, come on / Things aren't always what they seem to be / Come on, come on, come on / Do you understand the things you been seein' / Come on, come on, come on / Do you understand the things that you've been dreaming / Come a little closer, then you'll see / / Heartbreaks, the heavy world's upon your shoulders / Will we burn or we just smolder / Somehow I know I'll find you there / Ooh, I wanna see if you can change it, change it / Still I know I'll see you / / Come a little closer, then you'll see / Come on, come on, come on / Things aren't always what they seem to be / Do you understand the things you been seein' / Come on, come on, come on / Do you understand the things that you've been dreaming / Come

Goodbye Lyrics & Meanings: [Verse 1] / All my life, I read between the lines / Held on too tight, you know I tried / But in the end, it left me paralyzed / It's alright, goodbye, goodbye / Seems like yesterday I was a child / Just a ripple in the folds of time / I wish you well, I want to see you smile / It's alright, goodbye / Goodbye / / [Chorus] / Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye / I won't cry, I won't cry, I won't cry / Lord knows how hard we tried / Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye / / [Verse 2] / So many things I want to say to you / So many sleepless nights I prayed for you / My heart's an ashtray and I lost my mind / You bring the smokes, I've got the time / I want to scream, I want to laugh, I want to close my eyes / I want to hide somewhere that's hard to find / Stop wasting time trying to shape your life / It's alright, goodbye / Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye / / [Chorus] / Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye / I won't cry, I won't cry, I won't cry / Lord knows how hard we tried / Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye / / [Bridge] /

Ain't No Rest For The Wicked Lyrics & Meanings: I was walking down the street when out the corner of my eye / I saw a pretty little thing approaching me / She said I never seen a man, who looks so all alone / Could you use a little company? / If you pay the right price, your evening will be nice / Or you can go and send me on my way / I said your such a sweet young thing / Why'd you do this to yourself? / She looked at me and this is what she said / / There ain't no rest for the wicked / Money don't grow on trees / I got bills to pay, I got mouths to feed / There ain't nothing in this world for free / I know I can't slow down / I can't hold back though you know I wish I could / No there ain't no rest for the wicked / Until we close our eyes for good / / Not even fifteen minutes later, after walking down the street / When I saw the shadow of a man creep out of sight / And then he swept up behind, he put a gun up to my head / He made it clear he wasn't looking for a fight / He said give me all you've got / I

House of Glass Lyrics & Meanings: [Verse 1] / Climb into my corner, my self inflicted coma / Stand up, lay down, repeat in the same order / Fall straight through the floor and let the time just run me over / Another mirrored image corrupted and distorted / I'm underwhelmed, uninterested, I wonder why I'm over it / Walk it off, the kettle's black / The dotted line, the house is glass / / [Pre-Chorus] / (The house is glass) The house is glass / (The house is glass) The house is glass / / [Chorus] / It's an illusion, this admiration / Of mutilation, my isolation / It's an illusion, this admiration / Of mutilation, my isolation, my isolation / My isolation, it's an illusion / / [Verse 2] / Slide on down the staircase, that picture-perfect moment / Receiver projected, act like if you own it / Smile for the camera, repeat and do it over / Smile for the camera, repeat and do it over / Joke's on you, the needle prick / Cut me down, I need a break / Walk it off, the kettle's black / The dotted line, this house is g
