Worth A Try 03:06
lyrics
Worth A Try Words and Music by Doug Martines What’s it cost to find what’s lost Make it better right down to the letter, my friend What’s the deal you’re so surreal How do you feel gotta keep it real, my friend Are there tears that, you want to cry Take my hand, don’t be shy Open your heart, it’s worth a try There’s something so deep inside What’s on your face you can’t hide, my friend Is there something that you want to say A prayer that you may want to pray, my friend So get on your knees and look up to the sky Spread your wings and let them fly You have nothing to lose, it’s worth a try Come see, come see, the light….It’s worth a try. To be cynical to be wise What’s it take to open your eyes, my friend I read you like an open book You never take a second look, my friend Are there tears that you want to cry Take my hand, don’t be shy Open your heart, It’s worth a try

Where The Road Ends 03:32
lyrics
Where The Road Ends Words by Rachael Martines Music by Doug Martines (chorus) I feel like I’m on vacation In my own town And I’m smiling, out loud While the sun shines down Because I never thought I’d make it here Where the road ends… There was a time when, I felt ashamed Of all the choices I ever made There was nothing I wouldn’t do To simply disappear Get lost in the arms of a girl Far away from here But now I feel no need to run No more regrets my time has come (chorus) I was working myself to the bone A cog in the machine, I was gone The hustle got the best of me But now it’s gotten old The space between where ends meet Is only ever cold Now I labor for a love That loves me back when we rise above Life’s a different ballgame When you quit keeping score You learned the rules just to break them And ask what it’s all for What’s done is done you already won Go take your victory lap Go have some fun I feel like I’m on vacation In my own town And I’m smiling, out loud While the sun shines down Because I never thought I’d make it here Where the road ends… I feel like I’m on vacation In my own town And I thought I’d never make it here Where the road ends…and the journey begins c 2022 nightfall music

Dive Bar Delusion 03:28
lyrics
Dive Bar Delusion Words by Rachael Martines Music by Doug Martines When you live the the kind of day You’d like to be remembered by Wouldn’t it be nice if you could just die With that version of you at the front of their minds Sparing you the hell of losing your pride They say all roads Lead to Rome Yet we find ourselves here No matter who we become When the barkeep violates the sacred code And your secrets are out there For all the world to know WIll you be proud of who you’ve been Does any of it matter in the end? The man in the corner gets his beauty sleep And a couple washed up lovers try their hand at a date The old rugby boys order another round Its evil how easy that sweet house liquor goes down Graffiti gospel in the bathroom says you only live once And you’re starting to feel like once is more than enough But the kids in the back rack up the balls again So we let each other in and Make cheers the new amen They say all roads Lead to Rome But yet we find ourselves here No matter who we become Dive bar delusion No matter, who we become Dive bar delusion C 2022 nightfall music

Don't Hide Away 02:33
lyrics
Don’t Hide Away Words and Music by Doug Martines Tell me what’s on your mind If I look what will I find You’ve been so mysterious It’s made me so curious Chorus Gotta look, gotta look deep inside Come on out, come on out and play Don’t hide away, hide away from the world It’s gonna be, gonna be a great day Why don’t you let me in Don’t treat me like an antigen I’m and egg on your wall Hold me close so I don’t fall Chorus It’s all up to you, Don’t hide yourself away There’s plenty to do, Don’t hide yourself away We can dance in the sun, Don’t hide yourself away Your time has begun, Don’t hide yourself away We were once so very close Could it be we overdosed Wish I could turn back time I’m running out of words that rhyme Chorus C 2021 nightfall music

Tolerating Moderation 04:07
lyrics
Tolerating Moderation Words by Rachael Martines Music By Doug Martines Filled with fury and feeling gritty They let us die without an ounce of pity Did my part and fanned the flames Watched it burn but nothing’s changed Can’t unsee what I have seen “Back to normal,” what do you mean? Can’t pretend that it’s alright Bypass the trauma and catch the next flight (chorus) You’ve been tolerating moderation Sitting on your hands for way too long Put an end to all the indecision Embrace the change we have undergone You gotta join up with the battle cry March in the streets until you die Gather the troops, large and small Keep up the pressure and watch them fall Hear the call Red and blue are both to blame The moneybags have rigged the game Stagnant wages and rising prices Children left to their own devices Buildings crumble without a reason Killer heat marks the summer season They’ll make you think you’re going insane And promise to fix it the next campaign (chorus) Don’t need a savior We need each other Hope despite hope For a better future (chorus) C 2022 nightfall music

Time Travelers 04:02
lyrics
TIME TRAVELERS Words by Rachael Martines and Doug Martines, Music by Doug Martines I heard them shouting, and making a fuss. So I bought a ticket, and got on a bus Forward, backward which way to go When I figure it out, I’ll let you know. Is it real, or just a show (chorus) We were outlaws on the run Baking in the midday sun Like forest trees, set on fire Burning bright with desire Just when I thought We’ve seen it all September leaves began to fall You found me once On the other side Let’s go back in time Where we can hide Define a memory, was it true Or something conjured out of the blue When did it happen or is it still to come. This magical mystery tour that’s left undone It’s just begun (chorus) While they aim, To live in space Longer than the human race Has ever lived before We flee the scene Reality’s a dream For stars like you and me We’re the magical mystery…. (chorus) c 2022 nightfall music

Season Of The Witch 05:08
lyrics
Season Of The Witch By Donovan When I look out my window Many sights to see And when I look in my window So many different people to be That is strange, so strange You’ve got to pick up every stitch You've got to pick up every stitch You've got to pick up every stitch Mmm, Must be the season of the witch Must be the season of the witch, yeah Must be the season of the witch When I look over my shoulder What do you think I see Some other cat looking over His shoulder at me And he’s strange Sure he’s strange You got to pick up every stitch You got to pick up every stitch, yeah Beatniks out to make it rich Oh no Must be the season of the witch Must be the season of the witch, yeah Must be the season of the witch (gtr solo) You got to pick up every stitch The rabbits running in the ditch Beatniks out to make it rich Oh no Must be the season of the witch Must be the season of the witch Must be the season of the witch When I look…. When I look out my window What do you think I see And when I look in my window So many different people to be It’s strange Sure is strange You got to pick up every stitch You got to pick up every stitch The rabbits running in the ditch Oh no Must be the season of the witch Must be the season of the witch, yeah Must be the season of the witch When I look… When I look…

Gonna Get Mad 02:12
lyrics
She’s Gonna Get Mad Words and Music by Doug Martines You say you love her so She’s your one and only girl But you don’t ever let it show So if there’s any doubt In how you treated her You better straighten your act out (chorus) ‘Cause she’s gonna get mad She’s gonna get mad, oh yea She’s gonna get mad At you Hey why do you say those things You know they make her sad Only heartaches do they bring So if there’s any doubt In what you said to her You better straighten your ass out (chorus) So do you want to lose her Over a stupid fight Do you want to lose her And spend another lonely night Or are you gonna choose her Over your macho pride (chorus) c 1985 nightfall music

Man In Motion 03:33
lyrics
Man In Motion Words and music by Doug Martines Man in motion, making his way Starve the soul Starve the brain Starve the senses Feel no pain Look at the phone Look at the sky Look at the mirror And start to cry Hear a bell Hear a cry Hear a little voice Deep inside He’s a man in motion Making his way Through all the confusion Day after day A man in motion Feed the face Feed the head Feed the meter And go to bed Blow the candle Blow your mind Blow the deal Life is so unkind Face the music Face your fear Face reality It’s so unclear It’s a story It’s a lie It’s the truth That’s worth a try Without a doubt Working it out With such devotion He’s a man in motion Truth or dare It’s crazy out there So much commotion He’s a man in motion A man in motion c 2022 nightfall music

Time To Go 02:50
lyrics
Time To Go Words and Music by Doug Martines It’s an awkward situation I fell in without contemplation You know, how these things go You looked at me with no surprise You saw through my clever disguise What now, all I could think was how Got to get myself out of this place Can I disappear without a trace Will anyone know, if I just go (chorus) What’s the big deal anyway The violins will always play my song All night long So I should just walk away Maybe try again another day I know It’s time to go I gotta keep myself out of touch I always seem to say too much You know, my horror show They say it’ll be okay There’s always gonna be another day Keep trying, but I’m dying Damn this social etiquette What really is the benefit I don’t know, I got to go (chorus) c 2022 nightfall music
