Run along my little partner in crime There's a spell I gotta shake off tonight I've walked through town just lose my thoughts You fool around but not enough to get caught There's all the choice there, I can't make a move My head's all wrong and I don't wanna choose I got nothin' to lose Break the silence around you (The curse of innocence) Raise the hell that's in you Disenchant the ways of my mind Who under that spell submits to the lies I've been played by a miserable tool And it ain't gonna stop, cause I'm still a big fool Just a game with no rules Break the silence around you (The curse of innocence) Raise the hell that's in you (The curse of innocence) Oh yeah, all right One hell of a fight Ah yeah Break the silence around you Raise the hell that's in you (The curse of innocence) Break the silence around you (The curse of innocence) Raise the hell that's in you (The curse of innocence) Oh yeah, all right One hell of a fight That curse will die tonight Ah yeah

All the sunny days will come and chase those clouds away for fun Yet I still sit here waiting You were unhappy yet you complained all the time I got addicted to you make me wanna, make me wanna... I ran away from mercy To the promised land To start a new life with a penny in my weathered hands (Well weathered hands) I still search for a reason Yet I don't understand I never picked you to be one with hollow lies I got addicted to you make me wanna, make me wanna cry All the sunny days will come and chase those clouds away for fun Yet I'm still here and I'm waiting A little happiness could not have been a crime I got addicted to you make me wanna, make me wanna cry ( I wanna cry) I got addicted to you make me wanna, make me wanna die (I wanna die)

Find me on the rooftop with a stubbie in my hand Looked for ways to reason with a lifeless bitter man Love thy neigbour but we've already tried That uptight little prick is just not getting his ride Not getting his ride, yeah I'm a believer of compassion and good will Dare make a single sound and blood is gonna spill I just can't get my kicks by livin' in this place His walls are screwed and he's a prude from outerspace But look at the brightside there's a fridge full of beer And we're gonna party like its the end of the year I walked that line but now you wastin' my time Down the line (Down the line) (Down the line) (Down the line), whoa yeah (Down the line) (Down the line), Down the line (Down the line), Down the line (Down the line), whoa yeah (Down the line), Ah- (Down the line), -yeah (Down the line), Down the line (Down the line), Down the line (Down the line), whoa yeah (Down the line) (Down the line), Down the line (Down the line), Down the line (Down the line), oh yeah (Down the line) (Down the line), Down the line (Down the line), whoa yeah

Man in the shadows Lower your gun I'm a figure in the darkness With a song unsung Last minute wishes Just a little too late So pull the trigger now gunman That was your last mistake When there's a will I will follow No remorse in fate, let me bite the bait Let me bite the bait Man in the shadows with a toy for a gun You fool me once but now I'm done Big plot holes full of mystery They don't make too much sense It ain't me tryin' to bring you down Cause you're too much of a mess When there's a will I will follow No remorse in fate, let me bite the bait All too easy Now strike me down Now strike me down

Lucky Charm 04:16
Bring me back in time it's my fantasy I've been livin' in the past, can't you see You were always my lucky charm I wouldn't hurt a fly, I never did you harm Maybe I lost track of who I was But baby you know you still make me buzz Oh honey when I let you go I didn't know no better, I still love you so Hittin' rock bottom and all hell holes The devil let me out in exchange for my soul Oh yeah Now I ain't sellin' pity now rest assured But that smile of yours, is more than I can afford Lucky charm, and now you're gone It's a cruel life, but I'll take it on Lucky charm, and now you're gone It's a cruel life but I'll take it on (You're my, You're my lucky charm) You're my lucky charm Maybe I lost track of who I was But baby you know you still make me buzz Now I ain't sellin' pity now rest assured But that smile of yours, is more than I can afford Lucky charm, and now you're gone Don't reel me in with that uniform (You're my lucky charm) Lucky charm, won't you disarm You're a storm brewin', but I'll take you on (You're my lucky charm) Lucky charm, and now you're gone Don't reel me in with that uniform (You're my lucky charm) Lucky charm, won't you disarm You're a storm brewin', but I'll take you on (You're my..) You're my lucky charm (You're my..) Oh you're my lucky charm

I was so afraid, I was alone Stuck in a toxic house, far from home Signs all around, get me homebound To the edge of death I roam Sleep, it could wait but it was too late The harm had left its mark All night long I played along They turned me wrong that night (That night) Cancer to my pride, emotions left denied But I can't go back, no I can't go back I ran when they looked away, I ran till dark The sheer thought of freedom gave me a spark All in my mind, I'd leave it all behind To push back all that heat Oh I'd in a cave But the guilt she goes to the grave Feel the lower tide, safety has arrived Don't feel like I'll survive All night long I played along They turned me wrong that night (That night) Cancer to my pride, emotions left denied But I can't go back, no I can't go back No I can't go back and make it right All night long I played along They turned me wrong that night (That night) Cancer to my pride, emotions left denied But I can't go back tonight No I can't go back tonight (No I can't go back tonight)

Jailbirds Dublin, Ireland

The Australian born brothers, Axel and Jay McDonald, both moved to Ireland in search of forming a rock n roll band with local Irish musicians.
Ed Orr and Jamie Trimble were quickly picked up to be the perfect match for this fiery, no bullshit, hardworking outfit.
Since their formation they have toured Ireland, opening up for Y&T, The Answer, Tyler Bryant & The Shakedown and other local acts.
