Red Light Fever

Taylor Hawkins & The Coattail Riders Red Light Fever Lyrics
1.Pitiful

Lyricist:Gannin Duane Arnold, Christopher Chaney, Taylor Hawkins, Drew
Hester

Mother save me
They keep hanging around like clouds
Mother save me
'Cause I can't put it down, not proud

Take this light off of me
'Cause I don't want you to see
Just how weak I can be

Mother save me
I'm no good when I'm alone, alone
Mother save me
Can't pay what I owe and I stole

Take this light off of me
'Cause I don't want you to see
What this world's done to me

Take this light off of me
'Cause I don't want you to see
Just how weak I can be

Mother save me
There's nowhere left to hide except inside
Mother save me
'Cause this boy's lost his way again


2.You Drive Me Insane...

Lyricist:Gannin Duane Arnold, Christopher Chaney, Taylor Hawkins, Drew
Hester

You drive me insane but I like it
I like it like that
I don't need a sign 'cause I see it
When I look into your eyes

I can't explain but it feels good
Feels good to me
You drive me insane but I like it
I like it like that

This don't mean nothin'
Why does it tear you apart?
This don't mean nothin'
Why is it breaking your heart?

Don't analyze, sometimes
Leave it alone
Don't ask me why 'cause there's no way
No way to describe

You drive me insane

This don't mean nothin'
Why does it tear you apart?
This don't mean nothin'
Why is it breaking your heart?

This don't mean nothin'
Why does it tear you apart?
This don't mean nothin'
Why is it breaking your heart?

This don't mean nothin'
Why does it tear you apart?
This don't mean nothin'
Why is it breaking your heart?


3.Hell To Pay

Lyricist:Gannin Duane Arnold, Christopher Chaney, Taylor Hawkins, Drew
Hester

Underneath it all, you can see it shine
And it's beautiful
If we have to fall to realize
You have everything

And you get scared
And you don't know where to go
And there's nothing left to hold on to
The hand you feel is mine
The hands you feel are mine

Trouble seems to call every time
Life gets bearable
Do you know how to crawl
Through a fire? It's a miracle

And you get scared
And you don't know where to go
And there's nothing left to hold on to
The hand you feel is mine
The hands you feel are mine

Take your time
When you got hell to pay
Here's our chance
To give it all away one more time

Take your time
When you got hell to pay
Here's our chance
To give it all away one more time

Trouble seems to call every time
Life gets bearable

Take your time
When you got hell to pay
Here's our chance
To give it all away one more time

Here's our chance
To give it all away one more time
Here's our chance
To give it all away one more time

Here's our chance
To give it all away one more time


4.Not Bad Luck

Lyricist:Gannin Duane Arnold, Christopher Chaney, Elliot Easton,
Taylor Hawkins, Drew Hester

Don't believe the writing on the wall
Instigators love to see you fall
Get what you need, just shoot from the hip

The truth is what you get
Sometimes it seems to all belong
Complicated doesn't make it wrong

No need to enlighten me
The words shine right through your eyes

It's not bad luck
You give as good as you get
It's so easy to see

It's not bad luck
You give as good as you get
Doesn't matter to me
It's so easy to see

Everyone's a stranger in the end
You can be a loner and a friend
Get what you need, get to my head

The wounded and the dead
'Cause I could see them all day long
Waiting for the ending to begin

You keep on reminding me
That you've got nothing to hide

It's not bad luck
You give as good as you get
It's so easy to me

It's not bad luck
You give as good as you get
Doesn't matter to me

It's not bad luck
You give as good as you get
It's so easy to me

It's not bad luck
You give as good as you get
Doesn't matter to me
It's so easy to me

Don't believe the writing on the wall


5.Don't Have To Speak

Lyricist:Gannin Duane Arnold, Christopher Chaney, Taylor Hawkins, Drew
Hester

So you spend all of your days
Falling asleep, to dream
'Cause you know that look in the head
Ain't what it used to be

And you keep on telling yourself, baby
This is not the way that it was supposed to be
For me, for me

You did your time
Did you do the best you could?
Spend so much time
No one else ever would

You get so frustrated
When you see the ones you thought would never leave
How could it be? How could they leave?

Don't have to speak
'Cause I already know
Sometimes you just leave behind
The ones you can't let go

Don't have to speak
'Cause I already know
Sometimes you just leave behind
The ones you can't let go

Have no regrets
That's what you would always say
You'll have respect
If you make it your own way

If you run out of patience
You will find out what it means to lose it all
Losing it all

Don't have to speak
'Cause I already know
Sometimes you just leave behind
The ones you can't let go

Don't have to speak
'Cause I already know
Sometimes you just leave behind
The ones you can't let go

Don't have to speak
'Cause I already know
Sometimes you just leave behind
The ones you can't let go

And you keep on telling yourself, baby
This is not the way that it was supposed to be
For me


6.Louise

Lyricist:Gannin Duane Arnold, Christopher Chaney, Taylor Hawkins, Drew
Hester

Woke up in my head
Good times never end
With bad back to bend
Close my eyes just in time

Hands that I won't shake
Bones that I can't break
It takes time to change
Fall in line, one more time

Louise, it's me
I'm a dead man walking down your street
Louise, it's me
I'm a dead man walking down your street

Climbing up your walls
(I'm not your acrobat)
Diggin' in your holes
(I'm not your sewer rat)
Falling down your stairs
Pull my light one more time

Louise, it's me
I'm a dead man walking down your street
Louise, it's me
I'm a dead man walking down your street

Louise, it's me
I'm a dead man walking down your street
Louise, it's me
I'm a dead man walking down your street

Louise, it's me
I'm a dead man walking down your street
Louise, it's me
I'm a dead man walking down your street

It takes time to change


7.Walking Away

Lyricist:Gannin Duane Arnold, Christopher Chaney, Taylor Hawkins, Drew
Hester

You'd explode like an atom bomb
You just take anything you want
Mine is yours but none of yours is mine
Broken backs make an easy climb
Watch them crack as you reach the top
Once it starts it can never stop

Walking away
That's your claim to fame
Nothing to say
Just walking away

Walking away
That's your claim to fame
Nothing to say
Just walking away

Quit the race join the enemy
Back and forth is what you gotta be
Trace your steps form an alibi
Hear the words flow out it little lies
You'd be surprised what you can do
When the gun is pointing right at you

Walking away
That's your claim to fame
Nothing to say
Just walking away

Walking away
That's your claim to fame
Nothing to say
Just walking away

Walking away
That's your claim to fame
Nothing to say
Just walking away

Walking away
That's your claim to fame
Nothing to say
Just walking away

Walking away
That's your claim to fame
Nothing to say
Just walking away


8.Better You Than Me

Lyricist:Gannin Duane Arnold, Christopher Chaney, Taylor Hawkins, Drew
Hester

Oh no, there you go again
Maybe we should send you home
Lord knows, there's nothing you can't buy
Nothin' you can't find or own

Murder in your eyes
Of shadows in disguise
It's better you than me
No place left to go
Models of our own
It's better you than me

Let go, let us see you try
Let us see you cry, let go
Hold on, is that you givin' in?
Thought you'd never bend or fold

Murder in your eyes
Of shadows in disguise
It's better you than me
There's no place left to go
Models of our own
It's better you than me

Better you than me
Better you than me
Better you than me

{No, try it again
Red light fever, baby}

A perfect day never goes away
Somethings get to stay forever
The sun don't shine but I don't really care
It's just another kind of weather

'Cause when I'm miles away
I'm still next to you
When I'm miles away
I'm still next to you


9.Wasted Energy

Lyricist:Arnold Gannin Duane, Chaney Christopher A , Hawkins Oliver
Taylor, Hester Thomas Andrew

No one's gonna say goodbye
No one there to be surprised
No one's gonna ask you why
Nothing's gonna take it all away

No one in there to tell you not to
No one who came along to see it through
No one gonna throw a rope for you

When it's all just wasted energy
You get one ticket outta here
You don't even have to cry to see

Nothing's gonna take it all away
Baby, nothing's gonna take it all away for you

Shut the door and lock 'em out
Shove it right back in the face
Let 'em try and work it out

Was it all just wasted energy?
You get one ticket outta here
Do you really have to cry to see?

Nothing's gonna take it all away
Baby, nothing's gonna take it all away
Nothing's gonna take it all away
Baby, nothing's gonna take it all away for you


10.End Of The Line

Lyricist:Gannin Duane Arnold, Christopher Chaney, Taylor Hawkins, Drew
Hester, Wiley Hodgden

If you're my friend
Stay right by my side
Show me somethin' good
At the end of the line

If you're the one
Look into my eyes
Show me somethin' good
At the end of the line

I've been walkin' over
The bridges that burn
You keep talkin' but you
Don't say a word

If you're my friend
Stay right by my side
Show me somethin' good
At the end of the line

I've been walkin' over
Bridges that burn
You keep talkin' but you
Ain't said a word

I don't want to see with someone else
I don't want to see you alone
Did you heart deceive you?
Did you open up, just to let me go?

In the end
Will your star still shine?
Show me somethin' good
At the end of the line

When darkness ends
Will you be my light?
Show me somethin' good
At the end of the line

I've been walkin' over
The bridges that burn
You keep talkin' but you
Don't say a word

If you're my friend
Stay right by my side
Show me somethin' good
At the end of the line, end of the line


11.It's OK Now

Lyricist:Gannin Duane Arnold, Christopher Chaney, Taylor Hawkins, Drew
Hester, Curtis Matheson

Sometimes it goes
But never goes away
And when it comes
To nothing I can say

Seems like forever
Forever I would wait
Sometimes it goes
But it never goes away

Who, who and when it comes
The arms of sympathy
Oh, oh
Arms of sympathy

And I just wanted you to know
It's OK now
Oh, oh

Sometimes it comes
Now heat up like the sun
I sit and wait
Waits for me to run

Seems like forever
Forever I would wait

Who, who and when it comes
The words like symphonies
Oh, oh
Words like symphonies

And I just wanted you to know
It's OK now
I just wanted you to know
It's OK now

I just wanted you to know
It's OK now
I just wanted you to know
It's OK now
Oh, oh

Sometimes it goes
But it never goes away
Sometimes it goes
But it never goes away

Oh, who and when it comes
The words like symphonies
Oh, oh

And I just wanted you to know
It's OK now
I just wanted you to know
It's OK now

And I just wanted you to know
It's OK now
And I just wanted you to know
It's OK now
Oh, oh
Ooh, oh
Oh, oh


12.Running In Place

Lyricist:Gannin Duane Arnold, Christopher Chaney, Taylor Hawkins, Drew
Hester

You're still stranded there
You don't even care
Take the wrong advice
And even take it twice

You don't even try
It's all in black and white
You're still your mamma's son
Not even number one

Don't try and take it too far
'Cause I won't let you
Don't try and take it apart
'Cause I won't let you
You've seen everything
Still you keep comin' back

Don't you go inside
With all your second tries
Why don't you save us all?
Have a private fall

Take a friend with you
So, he can see it too
'Cause any friend of yours
Can even find the words

Don't try and take it too far
'Cause I won't let you
Don't try and take it apart
'Cause I won't let you
You've seen everything
Still you keep
Still you keep coming back

Days and weeks behind me
And right back at the start
Days and weeks behind me
And still ain't got that far

Memories
I can't say good-bye to my old friends
Again

Don't try and take it too far
'Cause I won't let you
Don't try and take it apart
'Cause I won't let you
You've seen everything
Still you keep
Still you keep coming back

Nothing to say
Going in my way
Future is ocean wide
So, you can say good-bye

Nothing to say
Going in my way
Future is ocean wide
So, you can say good-bye

Nothing to say
Going in my way
Future is ocean wide
So, you can say good-bye

Nothing to say
Going in my way
Future is ocean wide
So, you can say good-bye

Nothing to say
Going in my way
Future is ocean wide
So, you can say good-bye


13.Get Up I Want To Get Down

Lyricist:Gannin Duane Arnold, Christopher Chaney, Taylor Hawkins, Drew
Hester

Get up, I want to get down
Get up, I want to get down
Don't wanna be no cynic
Wanna get right in it
Don't wanna close my eyes
Don't need a big surprise

It never turn out quite exactly as you planned
You don't always have to try and take the upper hand
If you feel guilty that's okay because I feel guilty too

Get up, I want to get down
Get up, I want to get down
I don't want to burn you
So, buddy don't you burn me
I don't want to owe you
So, why don't you give it to me?

You've been looking for the enemy for way too long
You can try and keep the balance but you're not that strong
You keep lookin' for a better way of gettin' vile

Get up, I want to get down
Get up, I want to get down
Get up, I want to get down
Get up, I want to get down

Get up, I want to get down
Get up, I want to get down
Get up, I want to get down

You've been lookin' for the enemy for way too long
You can try and keep the balance but you're not that strong
You keep lookin' for a better way of gettin' vile

Get up, I want to get down
Get up, I want to get down
Get up, I want to get down

Get up, I want to get down
Get up, I want to get down
Get up, I want to get down
Get up, I want to get down

Ooh, yeah


14.I Don't Think I Trust You Anymore

I don't think I trust you anymore
The way you keep on looking at the door
I know it's getting harder to resist
Never thought you'd give it up like this

It's just another day
Another change to walk away

I don't think I trust you anymore
The way you keep on looking at the door
I know it's getting harder to resist
Never thought you'd give it up like this

It's just another day
Another change to walk away
It's just another day
Another change to walk away

Do you still need what you thought you left behind?
Is it all my fault that we're right back here again?
Can you still see what you thought you learned to hide?
Will you close your eyes when it's smarter to pretend?

It's just another day
Another change to walk away
Another change to walk away
Another change to walk away
Another change to walk away

I don't think I trust you anymore
I don't think I trust you anymore
I don't think I trust you anymore
