Aim High, Finish Strong

It’s like I’m seeing through new eyes
This fire burns on the inside
I now feel like I’ve grown into this skin
It’s always darkest before dawn
Until then darlin’ I’ll carry on
This next chapter is ready to be written
I can’t say quite why
But damnit I feel alive
Just so alive
Years have made we wise
With lessons by my side
And though my journey’s long
I’ll Aim High, Finish Strong
Bumps and bruises all will mend
The time for bridge burning now ends
I want break free from the same old story
Times get rough but I won’t quit
I’ll bite the bullet and persist
Joe now sings to me its Death or Glory
I can’t say quite why
But damnit I feel alive
Just so alive
Years have made we wise
With lessons by my side
And though my journey’s long
I’ll Aim High, Finish Strong

Midnight Oil

Clockin’ out at 10:05
As our sleepy town now comes alive
Scan the airwaves for some meaning
But there’s nothing on the radio
Just the same old crap
With the autotunes and dilute songs that don’t mean jack
The kids need something to believe in
So I sit there and burn that midnight oil
Tryin’ to start a fire like Billy Joel did
London’s Calling and I miss her
And all the kids sing…
Oh yeah, we love that old time rock and roll song
Play it again now, for me
Janie jumps in my car
And we drive to the beach to drink under the summer stars
Bury our toes in the cool sand
She says I need some substance I need some meaning
I need a song that will tell me how I’m feelin these days
But singers today just don’t understand
So I sit there and burn that midnight oil
Hope I die young before I get old
London’s Calling and I miss her
And all the kids sing…
Oh yeah, we love that old time rock and roll song
Play it again now, for me
I can’t believe that this would happen to me
Radio Radio oh where did you go
I wanna go to a place where the fights they have are
The Beatles vs. Stones, Converse or Vans
Where the rattle and hum from the speakers’ loud
And all the words from the songs are sang from the crowd
When we roll down that highway while living fast
We want something that’s honest, something that lasts
So I’m burning this midnight oil for everyone
Hoping our music will stay forever young
Forever young
Oh yeah, we love that old time rock and roll song
Play it again now, for me
