Fire Away
Written by Kevin Wilson and Robb Vallier
Fire away
With your eyes closed and the sky wide open
Fire away
Forces have met, something’s been said
A plan has been put into motion
No turning back, now on the attack
Fear swelling like the ocean
Adrenaline rush is fueling us
There’s no time to think about it
The right and the wrong, they don’t get along
Even winning bears no profit
Fire away
With your eyes closed and the sky wide open
Fire away
We’ll stand our ground, no we can’t be broken
Fire away
No warning shot and no quarter given
Fire away
Let the bells ring and choirs sing, Heaven help us
Let the fires burn, watch tides turn, Heaven help us
Let the bells ring and choirs sing, Heaven help us
Let the fires burn
Watch tides turn
Heaven, Heaven help us
Fire away
With your eyes closed and the sky wide open
Fire away
We’ll stand our ground, no we can’t be broken
Fire away
No warning shot and no quarter given
Fire away
Heart Of A Man
Written by Kevin Wilson and Robb VallierIf I wrote you a note
And love was in one line
Would you find a way
Could we find the time
What would you say
If I asked you for a kiss
Would you consider yes
Or would you resist
Take me now
As far as you can
See what’s inside
The heart of a man
Can you pick me up
Can you help me down
Can you shelter me from the sky
And everything falling all around
Take me now
As far as you can
See what’s inside
The heart of a man
Even if we get lost
It’s not a worthless cause
Take me now
As far as you can
See what’s inside
The heart of a man
Mean Streets
Written by Kevin WilsonSun sets over the city
Shadows fill the alleyways
Street lights can’t expose
The games that people play
Midnight marks the start
Of the meanest hours of time
Chose to stand on someone’s corner
There’s gonna be a fight
Mean streets are right outside
Open door, walk on through
Money to make, power to gain
Mean streets are waiting on you
Sun rise closes the night
You have to act in a different way
The streets are clean and the feeling right
Most wish it would stay
As the clock passes time
The countdown it has begun
The streets are waiting for the night
It’s almost time to run
Mean streets are right outside
Open door, walk on through
Money to make, power to gain
Mean streets are waiting on you
Steer clear of the trouble
Waiting right outside tonight
Strength is what brings you power
When you jump into the fight
Mean streets are right outside
Open door, walk on through
Money to make, power to gain
Mean streets are waiting on you
September Goes
Written by Kevin WilsonI stare out this window and I can see a change
Summer is still on fire but winter’s within range
So many mixed emotions, thoughts and memories
That’s what this month does to me
Do you want to tell me
What it is that I should know
‘Cause that’s just how September goes
I’ll take all I can get
Some good news for my soul
‘Cause that’s just how September goes
My Father’s Father, my Father and me
All lived in this space as strange as that may seem
Such different people at different times
It’s all left in these hands of mine
Do you want to tell me
What it is that I should know
‘Cause that’s just how September goes
I’ll take all I can get
Some good news for my soul
‘Cause that’s just how September goes
Only time will tell what I have left in store
Is it worth fighting, I don’t know what I’m fighting for
I’ll take a deep breath and hold back all my fears
Like I’ve done for all these years
Do you want to tell me
What it is that I should know
‘Cause that’s just how September goes
I’ll take all I can get
Some good news for my soul
‘Cause that’s just how September goes
The World Will Always Turn
Written by Kevin Wilson and Robb VallierI don’t want you hangin’ ‘round
If you don’t want to be here
And I don’t want to hold you down
If you think you can see clear
What the road has in store
And you just want to drive it
Then go ahead and hit the street
And don’t look back
Go ahead and go alone
If that’s the way you want it
But if you want some company
Babe I can supply it
Fools they say will never learn
But they’re the first to burn
Promises begin and end
But the world will always turn
Why you gotta wind me up
Why you gotta let me down
You wanna keep me on a string
Running ‘round and ‘round
Why you wanna give me hope
Then make it go away
I’m using up all my strength
To hold on for another day
Fools they say will never learn
But they’re the first to crash and burn
Promises begin and end
But the world will always turn
On and on again
On and on again
Fools they say will never learn
But they’re the first to crash and burn
Promises begin and end
But the world will always turn
Ship In A Bottle
Written by Kevin Wilson and Robb VallierI’m waiting on my papers
I’m waiting on the chains
To fall in the water and make my way
I got no one destination
I ain’t guided by the stars
This new situation’ll take me far
It’s gonna take me far
Hey boat master
When you gonna cut me loose
Feel like I’m tied to the shore, like I’m tied with a noose
I want to fill my sails
With this warm summer wind
I’m gonna make my break, ain’t never gonna come back again
Never gonna come back again
I feel like a ship in a bottle
A vessel with no power to move
I don’t rise with the tide, but you don’t seem to mind
With wind in my sails I’ll be new
I’m a Captain without sailors
I’m a captive under you
My world has gotten small, nothing left to do
So I’ll mend all the sails
Hoping time will pass
As you stand there and stare at me through the glass
Through the glass
I feel like a ship in a bottle
A vessel with no power to move
I don’t rise with the tide, but you don’t seem to mind
With wind in my sails I’ll be new
Slow Dance
Instrumental Written by Kevin WilsonWarhorse
Written by Kevin Wilson and Robb VallierThis land, belongs, to those who stand tall
This axe, is all, I need to hold mine
I made, a pact, defend this hard line
We’ll make, a stand, and show them this time
Gonna ride him into battle
Gonna ride him into war
Sitting high above you
High atop my war horse
My heart, has turned, heavy as a stone
My blood, it runs, the color of my home
I hear them bearing down
But they’ll be turning back around
Gonna ride him into battle
Gonna ride him into war
Sitting high above you
High atop my war horse
Dress him up in armor
Paint his face for war
He towers high above you
The shadow of my war horse
As much as it hurts, situation has turned
Leading us straight to battle
Alliances made, pettiness fades
We’ll win from the saddle
The ground, is scarred, there’s no tomorrow
My blade, is red, I feel no sorrow
Today our cry is one
But this fight is never done
Gonna ride him into battle
Gonna ride him into war
Sitting high above you
High atop my war horse
Dress him up in armor
Paint his face for war
He towers high above you
The shadow of my war horse
Superhero
Written by Kevin Wilson and Robb VallierI hear a signal from somewhere
That only I can hear
Time to change and earn my pay
I make my move in an instant
There’s no time to waste
Time and again I save the day
Hero
Superhero
I’ve the power to right this
I’ve got a mask and cape
But still the girls they don’t know my name
I wish I had a sidekick
A super car and a foe
Then they’d shower me with fame
I’m so close to where I want to be
Seems I’m heaven bound without any wings
They’ll have to take me down, kicking and screaming
I’m a superhero with the power to dream
I built a secret fortress
And you can find me there
It’s kinda lonely but that’s ok
I’ve got no time for distraction
My work is never done
I’m just a man with a world to save
I’m so close to where I want to be
Seems I’m heaven bound without any wings
They’ll have to take me down, kicking and screaming
I’m a superhero with the power to dream
I don’t need a license, a fortune or a gun
As long as I don’t hurt no one
Mother says that I should stop this parade
But for you all I must be brave
Hero
Superhero
I’m so close to where I want to be
Seems I’m heaven bound without any wings
They’ll have to take me down, kicking and screaming
I’m a superhero with the power to dream
Running Toward The Fire
Written by Kevin Wilson and Robb VallierBacks against each other
We’re gonna come out fighting the world
Opposition’s coming
We watch and wait with flags unfurled
Stand up, Stand tall, or Go home
Hold fast, Give all, or Go home
We turn and set our backs to the wall
Choose our weapon based on their size
We won’t roll over and we won’t back down
We’ll fire away when they cross that line
Alt – We’ll meet head on when the time is right
Stand up, Stand tall, or Go home
Hold fast, Give all, or Go home
Running toward the fire
Running through them all
Running toward the fire
Stand and watch them fall
We’ll throw our weapons down
When the ammo has been run through
Anger flowing to our fists
We’re gonna see what they can do
Stand up, Stand tall, or Go home
Hold fast, Give all, or Go home
Running toward the fire
Running through them all
Running toward the fire
Stand and watch them fall
Running toward the fire
Running through them all
Running toward the fire
Stand and watch them fall
Meet Me In The Middle
Written by Kevin Wilson and Robb VallierFeels like I’m walking on the edge
Like a tightrope tied to a ledge
Don’t want to fall, want to cross instead
And make my way to you
And make my way to you
I guess I’ve always been a runner
That’s all I know how to do
But if you’ll meet me in the middle
I promise I’ll stay there with you
Indecision is like a spell
A borrowed suit that I don’t wear well
It doesn’t fit but no one can tell
No one except for you
No one except for you
I guess I’ve always been a runner
That’s all I know how to do
But if you’ll meet me in the middle
I promise I’ll stay there with you
I’ve been down this road too many times before
And I’ve seen what’s waiting at the end
But you have changed all that I’m looking for
I have no reason to pretend
I guess I’ve always been a runner
That’s all I know how to do
But if you’ll meet me in the middle
I promise I’ll stay there with you
Stretching The Truth To Breaking
Written by Kevin Wilson and Robb VallierYou said you’d meet me in the middle
But you’ve taken this all too far
I’m standing here looking back
Why must this be so hard
I’ve given you most every hour
But you’ve taken days instead
You’ve wasted promises one by one
Until there’s nothing left
Stretching the truth to breaking
Taking it to the end of the line
Stretching the truth to breaking
Knowing it may not hold this time
The day we met it all seemed easy
Hand in hand we chased the stars
But the words that filled the air
They never hit the mark
The one I know became a stranger
What is left I cannot tell
You’ve placed on me the crown of fools
And I don’t wear it well
Stretching the truth to breaking
Taking it to the end of the line
Stretching the truth to breaking
Knowing it may not hold this time
The closer that I walk to you
The further away you seem to me
I take two steps to you, and you take three away
This is not how compromise should be
Stretching the truth to breaking
Taking it to the end of the line
Stretching the truth to breaking
Knowing it may not hold this time
Murder In The First
Written by Kevin Wilson and Robb VallierTrouble is my friend
There’s no place left to hide
In the back seat I wait on revenge
I hang on for the ride
I peer out the window
Looking for that man
Size up my target, timing is key
He may make a stand
Murder in the first degree
Nothing left to lose
Murder in the first degree
Nothing left to choose
I’ve always been at odds
No one takes what’s mine
But if you cross the one that I love
You’ll find you’re out of time
There are no second chances
Forgiving isn’t me
You’re the one who’s made these circumstances
Forget apologies
Murder in the first degree
Nothing left to lose
Murder in the first degree
Nothing left to choose
Now that my promise to act is over
I see my fate and start to run
I thro my piece into the gutter
The world is spinning, my mind is numb
I hope you read (red) the note on the table
Saying I did this all for you
I know that you didn’t ask me
It’s something I had to do
It’s something
It’s something I had
It’s something I had to do
Much too late for redemption
I’m all out of time
But I would like to have the conversation
No one gets out alive
Go ahead and lead me to the gallows
I’m not an innocent man
I hope your conscience lets you sleep tonight
My rosary’s in my hand
Murder in the first degree
Nothing left to lose
Murder in the first degree
Nothing left to choose
