Every time you wake up from the dream
You're never where you think that you should be
You close your eyes and hope it goes away
They tell you just to take it day by day
Something in your eye
Has got me asking why
You're stronger than all of us
You're stronger than all of us
When everything was thrown right back at you
You always seem to know just what to do
As the hours fade away
You stand your ground and push your fears away
Something in your eye
Has got me asking why
You're stronger than all of us
You're stronger than all of us
When your luck is gone
I know that you will carry on
You're stronger than all of us
You're stronger than all of us
Something in your eye
Has got me asking why
You're stronger than all of us
You're stronger than all of us
When our hope is gone
I know that you will carry on
You're stronger than all of us
You're stronger than all of us

Changes

I remember back in another time
Not a care in the world I was so alive
Couldn't tame me. I was ready to pounce
Loaded gun, ignorant, shameless
on the edge of a knife in the night
I was aimless, just searching for clues
Changes. Changes in me, making changes
(taking what life is giving to me)
Changes. Redefining me. Rearranging.
(same bad blood is running through me)
Now troubled times bring a troubled state
All along we just watch & wait for an answer
As the world is waiting, waiting for changes
And the same lines make the same old song
Another kid makes the same old wrongs that I did
Never changes, goes round & round & round
Changes. Changes in me, making changes
(taking what life is giving to me)
Changes. Redefining me. Rearranging.
(same bad blood is running through me)
Changes. Changes in me, making changes
(taking what life is giving to me)
Changes. Redefining me. Rearranging.
(same bad blood is running through me)

What u Want
02:42

Every day is a card to play, and every day is a fire
And every time you walk away you think I’m part of your plan
And every time you turn on me, gasoline on the flame
But now that I know what everyone else seems to know
In a different light, hey you don’t look right
I can’t be what you want, so do what you will
I can’t be what you want and it’s a bitter pill
Now I move to a different tune, never though of defecting the plan
Amazing change like a hurricane, chasing my tail again
Lay the blame just to punctuate it, deaf reason turns the season
Shame on you, shame on me, because, because
I can’t be what you want, do what you will
I can’t be what you want and it’s a bitter pill
I gave it all, all in vain
Maybe another sun will shine
On another day
I can’t be what you want, so do what you will
I can’t be what you want and it’s a bitter pill
I – I - I can’t be, what you want, do what you will
I can’t be what you want, do what you will

Better Life

Step out of the shadow
Slip away through the city streets
No rest for the weary
Taking all that's offered me
Wishing it's closer
No end in sight
I keep drifting through the night
What's left when the money's gone
Who's here when the party's done
Take what's left of this fading light
Trade it in for a better life
Too hard to make it last
This star is falling fast
But I'm never losing sight
I just want a
Better life
What's left when the money's gone
Who's here when the party's done
Save what's left of this fading light
Trade it in for a better life
Too hard to make it last
This star is falling fast
But I'm never losing sight
I just wanna
Sail away to another world
Pack it up and say goodbye
Find my strength between the lines
I just want a
Better life

Seasons Change

Facing the truth in front of me
And I don't know which way to turn
My mistakes will follow me
Looking for the lessons I've learned
And all of this lost time
Weighs heavy on my mind
Wipe out the things I did
Can I go back and do it again
I regret the things I said
Now I'm crawling back here so
I can try to make amends
For all of the pain I put you in
Seasons change again
Throw me a lifeline I'm drifting away
Drowning in dreams that beg me to stay
This is the darker side of the road
Leads to another story untold
So much left behind
And nothing to ease my mind
Wipe out the things I did
Can I go back and do it again
I regret the things I said
Now I'm crawling back here so
I can try to make amends
For all of the pain I put you in
Seasons change again
Wipe out the things I did
Forget all of the things I said and did
I regret the things I said
If I could go back I'd make things right
I can try to make amends
For all of the pain I put you in
Seasons change again

Welcome To The Machine

Welcome my son
Welcome to the machine
Where have you been?
It's alright we know where you've been
You've been in the pipeline filling in time
Provided with toys and scouting for boys
You bought a guitar to punish your ma
And you didn't like school
And you know you're nobody's fool
So welcome to the machine
Welcome my son
Welcome to the machine
What did you dream?
It's alright we told you what to dream
You dreamed of a big star
He played a mean guitar
He always ate in the Steak Bar
He loved to drive in his Jaguar
So welcome to the machine

The Pulltops Milwaukee, Wisconsin
The Pulltops are a Milwaukee based duo delivering a hooky mix of Indie Rock, Power Pop, and Album
Rock.
Mark Pierret and Tom Crowell always found common ground with pop music and strong hooks, and this would be at the heart of their writing. Though they never strayed too far from the classic pop and indie rock formula, they would often incorporate elements from their eclectic influences.
