Original Song Lyrics
*All songs/lyrics written by Brandon Payne
Mimi
I can't believe that I could be
Something I could never let me see
Here's hoping it's the best of me
and I thank you - you set me free
I changed the things I used to do
Cause I know they ain't made for you
I know there's more I need to do
and I thank you - you set me free
CHORUS
Freer than relaxin' in the summer
layin' out - listening to the thunder
there's nowhere else I'd rather be
Freer than taking the long way
freer than letting your hair down, stay around
thank you for making me, me
I don't care what the world will do
just focus on future me and you
there's nothing more we need to prove
I still thank you, you set me free
CHORUS
When I think of all we've done together
how it seems we've lasted forever
CHORUS
Wine & Moonshine
out in the garden, picking them grapes
can't wait until the day that I get a taste
momma's in the kitchen fixin' the yeast
papa's in the bedroom greasin' his feets
sister's in the cellar, she's lining up the pots
brother's on the porch - watchin' for the cops
CHORUS
they say don't but we still do
makin' wine and moonshine and bottles of brew
they say don't - you know we wont'
makin' wine and moonshine and bottles of brew
out if the field getting barley and wheat
water from the spring and we're almost complete
momma's in the kitchen fixin the yeast
papa's in the bedroom - 50 bottles atleast
sister's in the cellar - squeezin' up the hops
brother's on the porch - watchin' for the cops
CHORUS
we're just city people living on the outside of town
fillin' them bottles until the sun goes down
we make the brew that everybody drinks
prayin' up to heaven that we don't get caught
uncle's got a tractor he loves to drive
fetchin' them crops for whiskey and rye
momma's in the kitchen fixin' the yeast
papa's in the bedroom preppin' the peat
sisters in the cellar - it ain't ever gonna stop
brothers on the porch fightin' of the cops
CHORUS
Belong
give us a night to let it out
we've been holding our breathes for so long
know I never had a doubt
that we were living it all so wrong
now - here we are, surrounded by the stars
CHORUS
that I wished upon every single evening
hoping for the day, i've waited so long to just belong
to the one that's been there holding strong
listens to all my silly songs from miles away
now it feels so good to say - I'm finally in the place that I belong
give us a year to figure it out
no one said we had all the answers
though there's times we wanna scream and shout
we've worked to work to work it out
now - here we are, surrounded by the stars
CHORUS
and I promise you, lying next to you
i'll give you anything, all my everything
CHORUS
Better Days
all the seconds turn to years, where has the time gone
scattered memories we shared - where did the time go
you could light a match or turn to stone - what are you gonna show?
you could die in dust or age in rust - what could you still show?
CHORUS
come better days
want you to see yourself happier, in a way
come better days
don't wanna see you looking back and say - them better days
you're walking round the dives in town - dreaming of the city
each step the sun goes, street lamp - lighting your pity
though you may not be happy with elements of your story
it's up to you to change it up or give it time, you don't have to hurry
CHORUS
this is all just temporary -enjoying what you got
highs and lows like currents flow freely in your thoughts
but you know, yea you know
CHORUS
Cool With Me
here we are - soured by the taste
here we are - feelings unerased
just know that I'd be there for you if ever you needed me
every moment i know, you're cool with me
there we were - figuring life out
there we tried - working on self doubt
just know that i'm still here for you
even times we tend to disagree
you always have and will forever be cool with me
CHORUS
say you're cool with me
you know I can't go on
without us holding strong
you know I can be that man
that's cool with you
here we are - reflecting on our journey
we both made mistakes - but we were learning
we know that we've been there for us
that's why we now appreciate the day
we both say, i'm cool with you
CHORUS
Meant to Be
we all want someone to love
I wonder who you're dreaming of
I hope it's me
we all want someone to touch
you know it wouldn't take to much
to make it me
tired of on the road
tired of on the phone
no amount of miles will keep you from me
CHORUS
this will be well worth the wait when we see
you and me chasing all our dreams we've dreamed
I know this could be the best damn thing
I know it was meant to be
didn't know it'd take so long
even though we're holding on
for what will be
can't help but to think of the times
of a past while the future unwinds
i guess we'll wait to see
tired of on the road
tired of on the phone
no amount of miles can keep you from me
CHORUS
waiting, waiting on a change
holdin' on for our lives to rearrange
CHORUS
Maybe Someday
CHORUS
Time won't slow down when you tire to your last breathe
and I don't know how to wrap my mind around being gone
feelings can change when your body's grown weaker
still don't know why, maybe someday, I will
Sometimes you wanna leave
but afraid of where you're going
sometimes you wanna speak but
doubt keeps your words unspoken
but it's all lost on me
and it'd take years for you to find it
just pass it off as a dream
there's no place back from where i'm going
CHORUS
the hard times can help you see
if you're not too blind to look things over
you might find something to believe
when you've lost your sense of laughter
and if the pines do fall
don't let that thunder scare you
they're not looking for you at all
it's been me that they've been after
CHORUS
maybe someday I will
CHORUS
Only Know
CHORUS
should I just stand here forever and wait for the wind at my back
to keep on pushing me further down the wrong track
should I try to not remember every single word i've said
when things were harder than ever - no filter in my head
questions to answers that I - could only know
trying not to keep myself awake tonight
but these thoughts in my head keep turning on that light
let them say never do anything you can't
but how can they know if they've not given it a chance
CHORUS
Days do their best to slowly fade away
still that light falls to bring shadows on my face
seems hard to breath, when all your air is gone
from running away when all decisions wind up wrong
CHORUS
No time to runaway
from the words you've yet to say
they've been dancing on the tip of your tongue - but you enjoy the taste
do this on your own
get there fast to take it slow
thoughts skip at the beat of the drum - but you enjoy the flow
CHORUS
Far Away
I've done my time and counted my dimes
i'm packing my truck for the county lines
babe, our luck has changed and we'll fly wherever you wanna go
we spent all these years doing our best
spending weekends on work - never any rest
babe, the time has come, we'll fly wherever you wanna go
CHORUS
Go with me tomorrow
some place far away
all our dreams are to follow
so let's just take this slow
This ain't no vacation baby, this is your life
you can butter your bread with a Tiffany's knife
tell all your problems, just leave a message at the tone
ain't never been a poor man and never been rich
but a little but of money makes life less a bitch
fortune will leave you on the tracks of the love you've sewn
CHORUS
Money can't by time, but man, can it make it fly - through all our lives
CHORUS
Stealing Vegas
Got this chip on my shoulder
you know it's bettin' on black
cause I got no worry of going broke, baby
all the money in the world you could never stack
Never lost a hand in a gambling hall
never made a deal that seemed not small
and with all the odds against me, still i'll never hold
cause i've got the hands that i'll never fold
CHORUS
Feels like i'm stealing Vegas when i'm with you
got just the right hands to get me through
and there are no odds against me - this i'll prove
there's no thing as losing when i've won you
the smoke and the mirrors never distract me
with a poker face, I focus on the prize
but the dealer tends to keep on asking me
don't you think it's time to call it a night
never lost a penny I don't want back
never made a deal that steered off track
with all the odds against i'll never hold
cause i've got the hands i'll never fold
CHORUS
Spark
maybe it's me, but i'm far too young
to think this life is just half done
to the point of wearing me down
it's time to shed that skin to the ground
maybe it's me, but i'm far too old
keep carrying faults around like stones
to the point of weighing me down
it's time to shed that skin to the ground
CHORUS
When leaves they start to change
I know it's time to change my ways
when your days start getting dark
you gotta dig to find that spark
Maybe the sign of the times will tell
because that long last year burned like hell
to the point of burning me down
it's time to shed that skin to the ground
CHORUS
I know it happens every year
and the past never seemed so clear
but here we go again, here we go
CHORUS
Grow
can't give away what you've never had
can't learn to smile if you're never glad
can't try to be what you don't know
you were there, you helped me grow
can't learn to dream if you can't sleep
can't learn emotion if you can't weep
can't leave anywhere if you don't know where to go
you were there, you helped me grow
CHORUS
Now i'm growing through the happiness
growing through the pain
now that you're gone, it's such a shame
you just can't see that part of you
that lives in me
can't get back days remembered so well
can't skip the days that burn like hell
can't feel the highs if you never beat the lows
you were there, you helped me grown
CHORUS
we all deal with getting older
and all the ups and downs it brings
thinking back to when I was younger
and just how simple it all seemed
CHORUS
Done
I won't give in - I won't back down
to those old familiar ways
wasted my time - committed my crime
broken pieces left astray
don't need to tell you cause you watched me fall
no need to tell you - my actions said it all
I know the hills been steep, left you losin' sleep
just want to tell you how much i've been wrong
CHORUS
never meant you harm, only wanted fun
now with a cleared up mind I see all the damage i've done
never meant you worry, as I came undone
now with a cleared up mind I see all the damage i've done
i'm done
I'd try to tell you it was all ok
still tried to hide in the pleasure of my pain
but those days are over - wish we could both forget
if you think the payments over, you don't know the debt
CHORUS
in my eyes I saw me different
in my ears I heard me wrong
in my mind I knew I was kidding me all along
can't turn back now from the web i've spun
can only hope that what was done is done
CHORUS
Rosie (Cuervo)
met a girl named Rosie
can't remember all she told me
started fine - just sippin' on wine
then she pulled out a lime for a margarita
well the sun was warm and the air was hot
so we found ourselves some cups and a chilled spot
she pulled out a bottle of something gold
never thought that'd be how my night would go
when I woke up my day beside a bottle of Cuervo
CHORUS
Rosie Cuervo
can't find you anywhere, where did you go?
Rose Cuervo
my only wish is just to find you once again
lost the girl named Rosie
searched the town, asked around - nowhere to be seen
fuzzy memories and the bottle she left me
and a first name - how I wish I could see my
CHORUS
everyday i'd try - the bottle standing by
to catch a glimpse of you
CHORUS
Tough
used to think that I needed some pity but still don't even know why
everything I lacked on the inside was me, myself and I
I used to go around wondering if I could ever make a change
my mind locked my body from the inside - it's time to rearrange
CHORUS
please help me - my body's gaining rust
just believe me, i'm still tough
lord help me - know i've gathered dust
just believe me, i'm still tought
here I sit - broke stranded and ugly, verging on an attempt to try
all the things that I used to strive for came and went and left me dry
but still there's something, that's lost and buried deep inside
if I could just find that context or learn to read between the lines
CHORUS
shadows crawling away
CHORUS
Just Go
can I keep on smiling until this day is through
cause there's so much more that I have yet to do
need some sunshine shining down to my root
or there's no more growing for this man to do
climb me a mountain
swim me a stream
keep my someplace peaceful where I can share my dream
CHORUS
You know we're not getting any younger
you know time is ticking for another day
so why dont we, why dont we just go
May you always stray from all the open trails
cause there's so much more than anyone can tell
let the moonlight shining be the guiding light
under the moon we're one - one with the night
CHORUS
don't try to tell me life is just too crazy
that you're failing and nothing's ever good in it
everything you're looking for is right outside your painted door
it's calling, it's calling you
CHORUS
Gettin' On
she comes downstairs - I need you honey
with more time and a whole lot of money
"how the hell we gonna make it through?"
"bills we're payin', place we're stayin'"
"will out future dreams ever come true?"
I'll get me a job - get really dirty
test dynamite - study til i'm nerdy
whatever it takes to be with you
whatever it takes I will do
CHORUS
gettin' on with you
spendin' time with you
spend my life with you
baby we'll be gettin' on just right
if lovin' you were kung-fu, you know i'd be the master
if stars in the sky suddenly fell faster
i'd wish for you on every one
if with every last drop, I lose a little flavor
cover me with all that you savor - as I never wanna stop tempting you
I'll get me a job - wake up super early
test stunt planes to prove i'm worthy
whatever it takes to be with you
whatever it takes I will do
CHORUS
Born to Die
woke up on a cold ass morning to strap on my faux leather boots
get my mind ready for what's coming - a quick cold shower and an hour commute
settle into the seat of my ride - it's time to take the drive
to the place I know too well - pullin' up and my spirit dies
CHORUS
we were born - born to survive
then we're worn out laying on the ground - born to die
another day, another dollar - it's still not stacking up
don't think I can spend another hour - the stress has filled my cup
settle back in the seat my ride - it's just about that tie
gonna get home, sleep and wake up just to do it all another time
CHORUS
Wrong Track
your'e on a train for too damn long
you know you wanna get off
i'm on a train to nowhere and I just need to get off
tried to tell you i'm leaving
thought you'd beg me to stay
now i'm miles from where I wanna be
I think it's time to turn around
CHORUS
But i'm stuck on the wrong track - far too long
you've waged your war and claimed your cause
I know the battle won't end
til the burning of what you've lost
burns the bruises it heals
tried to tell you i'm bleeding
but you just laughed it away
now i'm moments from shades of grey
I think it's time to turn around
CHORUS
can't tell you where i'm going
but i'm fine with where i've been
and all the decisions i'm left knowing
i'd love to make them once again
CHORUS
Man in the Warm Weather
CHORUS
don't be sad you've already been had by the man in the warm weather
don't try to fight, you've given up every night to the man in the warm weather
don't try to tell me you don't care anymore
seems you've grown lazy and/or forgot what love is for
don't say maybe - i've heard it one too many times before
first you'll be comin' then you'll be runnin' for the door
CHORUS
speak and you preach now baby - but you do not what you say
just when you think it's over - you end up 6 seconds late
CHORUS
Love me
she got a cold heart
she got a cold smile
she got a cold stare that'll tear you apart
she keeps a hard love
she has a hard time
she has a hard life and she's making it mine
CHORUS
Love me, love me, love me like you used to do
used to know a girl who used to light my world
but times they change - feelings rearrange
now i'm stuck her thinking where she's been
I know chances are it's someone else's bed
CHORUS
Crime
hey momma, what do you see?
from wherever you are - are you proud of me?
hey momma, I can feel you still
things you never said continue to leave me
messed up - mostly
why does it seem to haunt me?
CHORUS
this is place where I, I lose my mind
this is the waste, that I can't deny
this is the hop, i'll keep locked up inside
this is the peace before the crime
hey momma, can you still see?
everything you left and let me be
oh momma, there's freaks outside
wanting to steal what's left of my life
oh momma, I feel it now
so useless to know you've been hangin' round
CHORUS
where did you go when I needed you
why did you lie that you needed me too?
CHORUS
Little Too Late
CHORUS
she won't tell you where she's going
until she's miles out of town
she won't tell you where she's hiding
until she wants to be found - it's a little too late
don't think that I can try to even up the score
all the times you gave up just to come back and ask for more
I won't stop being a patient loving man
just know it's hard to hold you with my head in my hand
just a little uncool
how you crawl back in just to run back out
CHORUS
they say life is just a trend of ebbs and flows
but I have a hard time believing in all your woes
shouldn't be so paranoid as you think you are
you're only the product of a source that left a scar
Just a little uncool
how you crawl back in just to run back out
CHORUS
little too late cry
little too late to try
little too late to be asking why
CHORUS
Not Me
pour it tall and i'll drink it down
need one more before the suns around
you know I gotta hit the road
to find myself of so i'm told
but I ask myself why o why can't I - be without you
lately it's harder to sleep
can't feel all the heat that you keep
so I lay awake in the dark of night
and stare at the clock on the ceilings light
and I ask myself why o why can't I - sleep without you
CHORUS
shouldn't be so difficult - being on my own
lately there's a part of me
that I never had known
so come on and complete me darlin'
cause i'm just not me, just not me without you
before we get this on the road
there's one more thing i've got to know
will you look at me like im the one
keep looing at me like i'm your fun
cause I ask myself why o why can't I - live without you
CHORUS
just you and me now
and the stories coming true
I won't ever leave now
cause I just wanna be with you
CHORUS
I can't believe that I could be
Something I could never let me see
Here's hoping it's the best of me
and I thank you - you set me free
I changed the things I used to do
Cause I know they ain't made for you
I know there's more I need to do
and I thank you - you set me free
CHORUS
Freer than relaxin' in the summer
layin' out - listening to the thunder
there's nowhere else I'd rather be
Freer than taking the long way
freer than letting your hair down, stay around
thank you for making me, me
I don't care what the world will do
just focus on future me and you
there's nothing more we need to prove
I still thank you, you set me free
CHORUS
When I think of all we've done together
how it seems we've lasted forever

you were there, you helped me grow
can't learn to dream if you can't sleep
can't learn emotion if you can't weep
can't leave anywhere if you don't know where to go
you were there, you helped me grow
CHORUS
Now i'm growing through the happiness
growing through the pain
now that you're gone, it's such a shame
you just can't see that part of you
that lives in me
can't get back days remembered so well
can't skip the days that burn like hell
can't feel the highs if you never beat the lows
you were there, you helped me grown
CHORUS
we all deal with getting older
and all the ups and downs it brings
thinking back to when I was younger
and just how simple it all seemed
CHORUS
Done
I won't give in - I won't back down
to those old familiar ways
wasted my time - committed my crime
broken pieces left astray
don't need to tell you cause you watched me fall
no need to tell you - my actions said it all
I know the hills been steep, left you losin' sleep
just want to tell you how much i've been wrong
CHORUS
never meant you harm, only wanted fun
now with a cleared up mind I see all the damage i've done
never meant you worry, as I came undone
now with a cleared up mind I see all the damage i've done
i'm done
I'd try to tell you it was all ok
still tried to hide in the pleasure of my pain
but those days are over - wish we could both forget
if you think the payments over, you don't know the debt
CHORUS
in my eyes I saw me different
in my ears I heard me wrong
in my mind I knew I was kidding me all along
can't turn back now from the web i've spun
can only hope that what was done is done
CHORUS
Rosie (Cuervo)
met a girl named Rosie
can't remember all she told me
started fine - just sippin' on wine
then she pulled out a lime for a margarita
well the sun was warm and the air was hot
so we found ourselves some cups and a chilled spot
she pulled out a bottle of something gold
never thought that'd be how my night would go
when I woke up my day beside a bottle of Cuervo
CHORUS
Rosie Cuervo
can't find you anywhere, where did you go?
Rose Cuervo
my only wish is just to find you once again
lost the girl named Rosie
searched the town, asked around - nowhere to be seen
fuzzy memories and the bottle she left me
and a first name - how I wish I could see my
CHORUS
everyday i'd try - the bottle standing by
to catch a glimpse of you
CHORUS
Tough
used to think that I needed some pity but still don't even know why
everything I lacked on the inside was me, myself and I
I used to go around wondering if I could ever make a change
my mind locked my body from the inside - it's time to rearrange
CHORUS
please help me - my body's gaining rust
just believe me, i'm still tough
lord help me - know i've gathered dust
just believe me, i'm still tought
here I sit - broke stranded and ugly, verging on an attempt to try
all the things that I used to strive for came and went and left me dry
but still there's something, that's lost and buried deep inside
if I could just find that context or learn to read between the lines
CHORUS
shadows crawling away
CHORUS
Just Go
can I keep on smiling until this day is through
cause there's so much more that I have yet to do
need some sunshine shining down to my root
or there's no more growing for this man to do
climb me a mountain
swim me a stream
keep my someplace peaceful where I can share my dream
CHORUS
You know we're not getting any younger
you know time is ticking for another day
so why dont we, why dont we just go
May you always stray from all the open trails
cause there's so much more than anyone can tell
let the moonlight shining be the guiding light
under the moon we're one - one with the night
CHORUS
don't try to tell me life is just too crazy
that you're failing and nothing's ever good in it
everything you're looking for is right outside your painted door
it's calling, it's calling you
CHORUS
Gettin' On
she comes downstairs - I need you honey
with more time and a whole lot of money
"how the hell we gonna make it through?"
"bills we're payin', place we're stayin'"
"will out future dreams ever come true?"
I'll get me a job - get really dirty
test dynamite - study til i'm nerdy
whatever it takes to be with you
whatever it takes I will do
CHORUS
gettin' on with you
spendin' time with you
spend my life with you
baby we'll be gettin' on just right
if lovin' you were kung-fu, you know i'd be the master
if stars in the sky suddenly fell faster
i'd wish for you on every one
if with every last drop, I lose a little flavor
cover me with all that you savor - as I never wanna stop tempting you
I'll get me a job - wake up super early
test stunt planes to prove i'm worthy
whatever it takes to be with you
whatever it takes I will do
CHORUS
Born to Die
woke up on a cold ass morning to strap on my faux leather boots
get my mind ready for what's coming - a quick cold shower and an hour commute
settle into the seat of my ride - it's time to take the drive
to the place I know too well - pullin' up and my spirit dies
CHORUS
we were born - born to survive
then we're worn out laying on the ground - born to die
another day, another dollar - it's still not stacking up
don't think I can spend another hour - the stress has filled my cup
settle back in the seat my ride - it's just about that tie
gonna get home, sleep and wake up just to do it all another time
CHORUS
Wrong Track
your'e on a train for too damn long
you know you wanna get off
i'm on a train to nowhere and I just need to get off
tried to tell you i'm leaving
thought you'd beg me to stay
now i'm miles from where I wanna be
I think it's time to turn around
CHORUS
But i'm stuck on the wrong track - far too long
you've waged your war and claimed your cause
I know the battle won't end
til the burning of what you've lost
burns the bruises it heals
tried to tell you i'm bleeding
but you just laughed it away
now i'm moments from shades of grey
I think it's time to turn around
CHORUS
can't tell you where i'm going
but i'm fine with where i've been
and all the decisions i'm left knowing
i'd love to make them once again
CHORUS
Man in the Warm Weather
CHORUS
don't be sad you've already been had by the man in the warm weather
don't try to fight, you've given up every night to the man in the warm weather
don't try to tell me you don't care anymore
seems you've grown lazy and/or forgot what love is for
don't say maybe - i've heard it one too many times before
first you'll be comin' then you'll be runnin' for the door
CHORUS
speak and you preach now baby - but you do not what you say
just when you think it's over - you end up 6 seconds late
CHORUS
Love me
she got a cold heart
she got a cold smile
she got a cold stare that'll tear you apart
she keeps a hard love
she has a hard time
she has a hard life and she's making it mine
CHORUS
Love me, love me, love me like you used to do
used to know a girl who used to light my world
but times they change - feelings rearrange
now i'm stuck her thinking where she's been
I know chances are it's someone else's bed
CHORUS
Crime
hey momma, what do you see?
from wherever you are - are you proud of me?
hey momma, I can feel you still
things you never said continue to leave me
messed up - mostly
why does it seem to haunt me?
CHORUS
this is place where I, I lose my mind
this is the waste, that I can't deny
this is the hop, i'll keep locked up inside
this is the peace before the crime
hey momma, can you still see?
everything you left and let me be
oh momma, there's freaks outside
wanting to steal what's left of my life
oh momma, I feel it now
so useless to know you've been hangin' round
CHORUS
where did you go when I needed you
why did you lie that you needed me too?
CHORUS
Little Too Late
CHORUS
she won't tell you where she's going
until she's miles out of town
she won't tell you where she's hiding
until she wants to be found - it's a little too late
don't think that I can try to even up the score
all the times you gave up just to come back and ask for more
I won't stop being a patient loving man
just know it's hard to hold you with my head in my hand
just a little uncool
how you crawl back in just to run back out
CHORUS
they say life is just a trend of ebbs and flows
but I have a hard time believing in all your woes
shouldn't be so paranoid as you think you are
you're only the product of a source that left a scar
Just a little uncool
how you crawl back in just to run back out
CHORUS
little too late cry
little too late to try
little too late to be asking why
CHORUS
Not Me
pour it tall and i'll drink it down
need one more before the suns around
you know I gotta hit the road
to find myself of so i'm told
but I ask myself why o why can't I - be without you
lately it's harder to sleep
can't feel all the heat that you keep
so I lay awake in the dark of night
and stare at the clock on the ceilings light
and I ask myself why o why can't I - sleep without you
CHORUS
shouldn't be so difficult - being on my own
lately there's a part of me
that I never had known
so come on and complete me darlin'
cause i'm just not me, just not me without you
before we get this on the road
there's one more thing i've got to know
will you look at me like im the one
keep looing at me like i'm your fun
cause I ask myself why o why can't I - live without you
CHORUS
just you and me now
and the stories coming true
I won't ever leave now
cause I just wanna be with you
CHORUS
