Scarier

By Adam Burr and Gary Burr

There's a monster underneath my bed
Saying "you can always count on me"
There's a nightmare hiding in my closet
Where else should a nightmare be?
I keep thinking any day they'd be gone
But I've been living with them now for so long
With friends like these
What could be
Scarier?
They're here for me
What could be...Scarier?
I'd hear snakes slide across my floorboards
You might think that would be a fright
A bed sheet ghost floating out my window
For me just another night
When witches came I would not be eaten
I was taught witches could be beaten
With friends like these
What could be
Scarier?
They're here for me
What could be...Scarier?


We've been playing this game for so long
We've become quite familiar to you
Don't forget if you let down your guard
We'll still do what monsters do
We are dragons and beasties galore
Such a dark metaphorical zoo
We knew to survive in this world
you must be a monster too
We made you a monster too


Strange sounds coming from my attic
Strange shadows dance across my lawn
I've learned to sleep with one eye open
Still sleep soundly till the dawn
In the morning when the headlines daunt me
I remember all the spooks that haunt me
With friends like these
What could be
Scarier?
They're here for me
What could be...Scarier?

The Wrong Side of Midnight

By Adam Burr and Gary Burr

Tickets are bought
Good luck charms are sold
Trading for courage with a lion working down the road
No room to think
Smoke is all around
Can't see two feet before your eyes
But that don't slow you down

  The wrong side of midnight
  That's when you lose yourself
  You don't throw away your compass
  But you might as well
  The wrong side of midnight
  When even angels sin
  That's when you hear the sirens calling
  And you're diving in
  The wrong side of midnight
  The wrong side of midnight

One if by land
Nothing here to see
You want to lie down but the neon says no vacancy
Choices are made you know you'll regret
The tragic consequences simply haven't hit you yet

 [Chorus]

You hate it but you do it to yourself
Every night, every night
  Why do you do this to yourself every night?
You're not who you think that you are
In the light, in the light
  You're not who you think that you are in the light
  Is this the only time you feel alive?

It's fever hot
It's iron cold
You wouldn't be here if you'd only do as you were told
Been here before
The cycle never ends
Sometimes you wonder if you'll ever see the sun again

  [Chorus]

Who You Thought I Was

By Adam Burr and Gary Burr

Who you want
What you need
I was struggling hard to be
You won't change
And I can't pretend
So this is how this story ends

  I couldn't live up to your expectations
  I'm not sure anyone does
  You had this version of me in your head
  I'm sorry I'm not who you thought I was

You had your dream
Had your ideal
But you woke up to the man who's real
So if that man 
Is not enough
How can this really be love?

  [Chorus]

I'm not clay
To mold into
A David who was made for you
If you can't love
The man I am
I hope someday you'll understand

  [Chorus]
