Got No Glory (Tesla)

Got No Glory

What I feel is what I say,
I’m keeping it real so never mind the taste,

Cause I know there’s nothing deeper than truth,
So give me the reason not the excuse,
Even the things I can hardly believe,
Is something that I can use,

I’ll never be your alibi,
Or tell you what you want to hear,
Knowing that I’d rather die.
Than have my words be insincere,

I GOT NO GLORY,

So I’m gonna give it to you like it is,
If you want to hear the real story,
And not some candy coated lie

COME AND GET IT

To falsify don’t make no sense,
I’d rather deal with the consequences,

Cause I know there’s nothing deeper than truth,
So give me the reason not the excuse,
Even the things I can hardly believe,
Is something that I can use

I’ll never need an alibi,
Don’t sell it to me out of fear
I told you that I’d rather die.
Than have my words be insincere

I GOT NO GLORY,

So I’m gonna give it to you like it is,
If you want to hear the real story,
And not some candy coated lie

I GOT NO GLORY,

So I’m gonna give it to you like it is,
If you want to hear the real story,
And not some candy coated lie

COME AND GET IT

Miles Away (Tesla)

Miles Away

Such a heavy price to pay, all the time that I’ve spent missing home
And I try not to complain, but sometimes it won’t leave me alone
And I think I know myself better than anyone else
Cause I’m me, I oughta know, what I want, what I need, what’s inside of me
Maybe something that I took to get outta my head, or took for the thrill
The way I dress, the way that I look, or the way that I pay the bills

‘Cause you’re miles away, miles away, how could you be so wrong
‘Cause you’re miles away, miles away, how could you know the score

All eyes on the stage, all the glitter and glow
Move to the rhythm, wile striking a pose
Music and melody, and words to a poem
You think that you know me, you’re not even close

Though I’m living out my dream, wasn’t long ‘til I figured it out
Nothing ever comes for free, even here on the merry-go-round
So you wanna take a ride, rollin’, and living the life
‘Cause you think I got it made, well, in case you don’t know, my friend died today
And it’s tearing me apart, if I knew what to say, don’t know where to start
I reached down in my heart, and with paper an pen put it in a song

‘Cause you’re miles away, miles away, how could you be so wrong
‘Cause you’re miles away, miles away, how could you know the score

All eyes on the stage, all the glitter and glow
Move to the rhythm, wile striking a pose
Music and melody, and words to a poem
You think that you know me, you’re not even close

The pages have burned but they’re written in stone
Now, what will become of us, nobody knows
And the wheel keeps on turning, I rise and I fall
And I try to get back, but I’m lost in it all
And I look all around, and I see that it’s gone
You’re miles away, miles away

Yeah, you’re miles away, yeah, you’re miles away
Miles away, yeah, you’re miles away

Caught In A Dream (Tesla)

Caught in a Dream

Now, if you can imagine this, the whole world sharing one big kiss
These are thoughts all through my brain, that I daydream everyday
That I’m alive and well, and right now, I’m alive, I’m feeling...well
It’s my life to live my way, so I’ll keep daydreaming away
And who knows, maybe someday, it will all come true
And I will get my way, and we will live as one

I’m caught up in a dream, I’m gonna wish for it all
No one’s gonna tell me how, no way, this is my dream now
I’m caught up in what seems simply impossible
I ain’t gonna change a thing, no way, it’s my dream

And what cannot will be done, for every living thing under the sun
Forget color, forget race, and just be one big happy face
Among this sea of people, live among God’s creatures, sharing love
That was sent down from above, here to share with one another
Father, brother, sister, mother, everybody sharing love, sharing love

I’m caught up in a dream, I’m gonna wish for it all
No one’s gonna tell me how, no way, this is my dream now
I’m caught up in what seems simply impossible
I ain’t gonna change a thing, no way, it’s my dream, this is my dream

What if...I close my eyes and everything will be alright
Here in my fantasy, living in harmony
Make my dream come alive

I’m caught up in a dream, I’m gonna wish for it all
No one’s gonna tell me how, no way, this is my dream now
I’m caught up in what seems simply impossible
I ain’t gonna change a thing, no way, it’s my dream
I’m caught up in a dream, I’m gonna wish for it all
No one’s gonna tell me how, no way, this is my dream now
I’m caught up in what seems simply impossible
I ain’t gonna change a thing, no way, it’s my dream

Now, if you can imagine this, the whole world sharing one big kiss
Take away the pain and hurt, make like heaven here on earth
Without reason to die, and given everlasting life for all

Words Can't Explain (Tesla)

Words Can’t Explain

Once upon a day, love walked away
Soon after, I would learn, only never to return
Feeling life was through, like it was ‘til you
Saved me before I drowned, put me up on drier ground
And I meant what I said, when I told you
I’ll never love like this again, I wanna hold you
In my arms, wrap my legs, around your pretty self

If only words could explain, I’d surely tell you now
How I feel about everything, I’ll never let you down
And you better believe, you can count on me
I couldn’t ask for a better friend, I’ll never love like this again... oh no

This love is real, so much I feel it
So deep inside, as though our hearts were synchronized
Now, since you came, and colored up my life
I’ll never make it, in black and white
All pales, or shades of grey
You come around, they go away
And I meant every word I said, when I told you
I’ll never love like this again, I wanna show you
You’re in my heart, you’re in my soul, you’re all I wanna know

If only words could explain, I’d surely tell you now
How I feel about everything, I’ll never let you down
And you better believe, you can count on me

What does it really mean, I’ve never known for sure
Don’t know what to believe, only know what I’m feeling
I’m going to a place, I’ve never been before
I just can’t help myself, can’t help what I’m feeling

If only words could explain, If only words could explain
If only words could explain, If only words could explain
Maybe how I feel

Heaven Nine Eleven (Tesla)

Heaven Nine Eleven

Tell me why there so much pain today
‘Cause taking lives is for the gain or so they say
I can’t believe it but they feel this way
And that’s the way of the world
Tell me why it takes a tragedy to see
To wake us up and bring us down on to our knees
With all the people suffering with diseases

And that the way
That’s the way
That’s the way of the world

As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better everyday
As the sun burns the ground
There’s got to be another way
Is our god looking down
And does it feel everybody’s pain
As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better every day

Teach the children what means to love
Show them why we can never give enough
Lets work together we can rise above

And change the ways
Change the ways
Change the ways of the world

As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better everyday
As the sky turns the ground
There’s got to be another way
Is our god looking down
And does it feel every body’s pain
As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better every day

(Heaven)

As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better everyday
As the sun burns the ground
There’s got to be another way
Is our god looking down
And does it feel every body’s pain
As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better every day

As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better everyday
As the sky turns the ground
There’s got to be another way
Is our god looking down
And does it feel every body’s pain
As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better every day
