Battle Vs. The War lyrics - Butch Walker

Enemy lines
Drawn the same time
Who will lie?

Give it all back
Fade it to black
And watch it die
And you never see it coming
You just wave it good-bye
And it’s gone

So I’ll sing us down the river
We’ll pick up and carry on
Even though we never really knew what for

Took a good long look at failure
‘Til I couldn’t anymore
I won the battle
But we lost the war

Pictures of life
Taken at night
With you blurred out
Funny some how,
I see it clear now
And hear the sounds
Of the trains at the station
Where I first picked you up
I let you down.

So I’ll sing us down the river
We’ll pick up and carry on
Even though we never really knew what for

Took a good long look at failure
‘Til I couldn’t anymore
I won the battle
But we lost the war

So I’ll sing us down the river
We’ll pick up and carry on
Even though we never really knew what for

Took a good long look at failure
‘Til we couldn’t anymore
We won the battle
But we lost the war

Better Now lyrics - Butch Walker

(originally by Post Malone)

You prolly think that you are better now, better now
You only say that 'cause I'm not around, not around
You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything
You know I say that I am better now, better now
I only say that 'cause you're not around, not around
You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything
Oh-oh

I did not believe that it would end, no
Everything came second to the Benzo
You're not even speakin' to my friends, no
You knew all my uncles and my aunts though
Twenty candles, blow 'em out and open your eyes
We were lookin' forward to the rest of our lives
Used to keep my picture posted by your bedside
Now it's in your dresser with the socks you don't like
And I'm rollin', rollin', rollin', rollin'
With my brothers like it's [?]
Drinkin' whisky and I'm tryna forget
But I can't get this shit outta my head

You prolly think that you are better now, better now
You only say that 'cause I'm not around, not around
You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything
You know I say that I am better now, better now
I only say that 'cause you're not around, not around
You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything
Oh-oh

I seen you with your other dude
He seemed like he was pretty cool
I was so broken over you
Life it goes on, what can you do?
I just wonder what it's gonna take
Another house, another diamond ring
Because no matter how my life has changed
I keep on looking back on better days

You prolly think that you are better now, better now
You only say that 'cause I'm not around, not around
You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything
You know I say that I am better now, better now
I only say that 'cause you're not around, not around
You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything
Oh-oh

I promise
I swear to you, I'll be okay
You're only the love of my life

You prolly think that you are better now, better now
You only say that 'cause I'm not around, not around
You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything
You know I say that I am better now, better now
I only say that 'cause you're not around, not around
You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything
Oh-oh

End Of The World (One More Time) lyrics - Butch Walker

One more time…

Something weird happened on the way to the store
Trying to buy a rifle and a record and more
Shocked like a cattle-prod
Hit me on the head
Like a premonition from a prophet in red

Sky rockets in sight
Get ready for a fight
Hey Hey!
It’s gonna get ugly like a hacked-off hand
For reaching for a little more than the common man

All in good time
The cut’s gonna heal
Even in the worst sun
Burn’s gotta peel

We get to the bottom
I can see the sign
It’s the end of the world
Yeah, one more time

It’s the end of the world
Yeah, one more time

Synchronized dancer’s like zombies in the street
Singing for a supper that you never wanna eat
Taking what they’re giving
But the giving is pissed
Looking at guitars
Like, “What the hell’s this?”

Sky rockets in flight
Get ready for a fight
Hey Hey!
I can see the headlines
Ain’t no joke
The party finally stopped
When the laptop broke

All in good time
The cut’s gonna heal
Even in the worst sun
Burn’s gotta peel

We get to the bottom
I can see the sign
It’s the end of the world
Yeah, one more time

It’s the end of the world
Yeah, one more time

Hey Hey!

Don’t worry ‘bout me
I’m doing just fine
Standing on the street corner
Flipping this sign
Working while the DJ drinks his wine
While an auto-pilot iPod
Shuffles in time

Sky rockets in sight
Get ready for the fight
We gotta go to battle
If we wanna win the war
Time to stop the party
When your hair gets sore

But all in good time
The cut’s gonna heal
Even in the worst sun
Burn’s gotta peel

We get to the bottom
I can see the sign
It’s the end of the world
Yeah, one more time

It’s the end of the world
Yeah, one more time
It’s the end of the world
Yeah, one more time

Hey Hey!

Eye Of The Tiger lyrics - Butch Walker

(originally by Survivor)

Rising up, back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive

So many times it happens too fast
You trade your passion for your glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive

It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger

Face to face, out in the heat
Hanging tough, staying hungry
They stack the odds still we take to the street
For the kill with the skill to survive

It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger

It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the eye...

Open Happiness lyrics - Butch Walker (with Cee-Lo Green, Patrick Stump (from Fall Out Boy), Brendon Urie (from Panic! at the Disco), Travie McCoy (from Gym Class Heroes), Janelle MonĂ¡e, Polow Da Don)

Well hello, is this thing on?
Is anybody listening?
A brand new day has begun

The first thing that I want do
Make sure that you feel it too
So I'm not the only one

C'mon and lift me up, it's a brand new day
Open up a little happiness today
So I can be someone new (so I can be someone new)
C'mon and lift me up to a better way
Open up a smile on another face
So I can feel something new

Open up, open up some happiness [4x]

Ahem ahem
Let me clear my throat
So you can hear clearly every word spoke
Today I woke feeling lovely
Happiness overflowin' knowin' somebody loves me
Just think yesterday I was down and out
Now there's not a single thing for me to frown about
And the same thing can happen to you
Smiling so hard my mouth look like a capital "U"

Yeah, I want the sun to shine
All the time
Is that too much to ask
Oh, I want to have some fun
I want all my friends to come
'Cause it's now or never
Learn the words and sing together

C'mon and lift me up, it's a brand new day
Open up a little happiness today
So I can be someone new (so I can be someone new)
C'mon and lift me up to a better way
Open up a smile on another face
So I can feel something new

Your heart deserves your trust
A choice made by all of us
The sun will come back tomorrow
There's a message in the bottle
So come on I'll meet you there
There's enough sunshine to share
As long as you know
The bridge between us is a rainbow

C'mon and lift me up, it's a brand new day
Open up a little happiness today
So I can be someone new (so I can feel something new)
C'mon and lift me up to a better way
Open up a smile on another face
So I can feel something new

Open up, open up, open happiness
Open up, open up some happiness [3x]

Open up, open up, open happiness [6x]

Walkin' Back To Georgia lyrics - Butch Walker, Elizabeth Cook & Katie Pruitt

(originally by Jim Croce)

Well I'm walkin' back to Georgia
And I hope she will take me back
Nothin' in my pockets
All I own is on my back

But she's the girl who said she loved me
On that hot dusty Macon road
And if she's still around, I'm gonna settle down
With that hard lovin' Georgia girl

Mmm...

I'm walkin' back to Georgia
She's the only one who knows
How it feels when you lose a dream
And how it feels when you dream alone

She's the girl who said she loved me
On that hot dusty Macon road
And if she's still around, I'm gonna settle down
With that hard lovin' Georgia girl

Mmm...

Georgia, can you hear me callin'?
I'll be home in just a while
And if I had to I'd be crawlin'
Just to share another mornin' smile

You're the girl who said you loved me
On that hot dusty long ago
And if you're still around, I'm gonna settle down
With that hard lovin' Georgia girl

Mmm...

'Cause I'm walkin' back to Georgia
And I hope she will take me back
Nothin' in my pockets
All I own is on my back

But she's the girl who said she loved me
On that hot dusty Macon road
And if she's still around, I'm gonna settle down
With that hard lovin' Georgia girl

Mmm...
