I give my all my everything
Anything you want I strive to be
I tried, god knows I've tried
Or am I stuck somewhere between
Who I am and who I hope to be
Am I fighting the good fight
Keep pressing on
Fight the good fight
Fight, what you know is wrong
Keep pressing on
Fight the good fight
Fight, what you know is wrong
I've come so far to fall too fast
Eyes forward I can't look back I try
God knows I try
I shift my eyes through the sky
In the distance see the horizon line
She waits for me
Fighting the good fight
Keep pressing on
Fight the good fight
Fight, what you know is wrong
Keep pressing on
Fight the good fight
Fight, what you know is wrong
I give my all my everything
Anything you want I strive to be
Am I stuck somewhere between
Who I am and who I hope to be
Fighting, I'm fighting
Fighting the good fight
Am I stuck somewhere in between
Who I am and who I hope to be
Keep pressing on
Fight the good fight
Fight, what you know is wrong
Keep pressing on
Fight the good fight
Fight, what you know is wrong
Remember that
Sometimes I fall in between
The nights blue moon and the shadows it keeps
Fight on, Fight the good fight
What you know is wrong
And I'll keep fighting the good fight
Fight on, good fight
Fight on and fight
Keep fighting the good fight
Fight on, fight on
Fight on, keep fighting the good fight
To what do I owe this gift my friend?
My life, my love, my soul?
I've been dancing with the devil way too long
And it's making me grow old
Making me grow old
Let's leave...oh let's get away
Get lost in time
Where there's no reason left to hide
Let's leave...oh let's get away
Run in fields of time
Where there's no reason left to hide
No reason to hide
What are you going to do with your gift dear child?
Give life, give love, give soul?
Divided is the one who dances
For the soul is so exposed
So exposed
Let's leave...oh let's get away
Get lost in time
Where there's no reason left to hide
Let's leave...oh let's get away
Run in fields of time
Where there's no reason left to hide
No reason to hide
There is no reason to hide
There is no reason to hide
There is no reason to hide
There is no reason to hide
Let's leave...oh let's get away
Get lost in time
Where there's no reason left to hide
Let's leave...oh let's get away
Run in fields of time
Where there's no reason left to hide
No reason to hide
Let's leave...oh let's get away
Get lost in time
Where there's no reason left to hide
No reason to hide
There is no reason to hide
No reason to hide
There is no reason to hide

When I woke up this morning, I got myself a beer
The future's uncertain and the end is always near.
Let it roll, baby, roll

At times life is wicked
And I just can't see the light
A silver lining sometimes isn't enough
To make some wrongs seem right
Whatever life brings
I've been through everything
And now I'm on my knees again
But I know, I must go on
Although I hurt, I must be strong
Because inside, I know
That many feel this way
Children, don't stop dancing
Believe you can fly away, away
At times life's unfair
And you know it's plain to see
Hey, God, I know I'm just a dot in this world
Have You forgot about me?
Whatever life brings
I've been through everything
And now I'm on my knees again
But I know, I must go on
Although I hurt, I must be strong
Because inside, I know
That many feel this way
Children, don't stop dancing
Believe you can fly away, away
Am I hiding in the shadows?
Forget the pain and forget the sorrows
Am I hiding in the shadows?
Forget the pain and forget the sorrows
But I know, I must go on
Although I hurt, I must be strong
Because inside, I know
That many feel this way
Children, don't stop dancing
Believe you can fly away, away
Children, don't stop dancing
Believe you can fly away, away
Children, don't stop dancing
Believe you can fly away, away
Am I hiding in the shadows?
She came calling
One early morning
She showed her crown of thorns
She whispered softly
To tell a story
About how she had been wronged
As she lay lifeless
He stole her innocence
And this is how she carried on
This is how she carried on
Well I guess she closed her eyes
And just imagined everything's alright
But she could not hide her tears
'Cause they were sent to wash away those years
They were sent to wash away those years
My anger's violent
But still I'm silent
When tragedy strikes at home
I know this decadence Is shared by millions
Remember you're not alone
Remember you're not alone
Well if you just close your eyes
And just imagine everything's alright
But do not hide your tears
'Cause they were sent to wash away those years
Well if you just close your eyes
And just imagine everything's alright
But do not hide your tears
'Cause they were sent to wash away those years
They were sent to wash away those years
Maybe we can wash away those years
For we have crossed many oceans
And we labor in between
In life there are many quotients
And I hope I find the mean
the mean, the mean
Well if you just close your eyes
And just imagine everything's alright
But do not hide your tears
'Cause they were sent to wash away those years
Well if you just close your eyes
And just imagine everything's alright
But do not hide your tears
'Cause they were sent to wash away those years
Maybe we can wash away those years
When dreaming I'm guided to another world
Time and time again
At sunrise I fight to stay asleep
'Cause I don't want to leave the comfort of this place
'Cause there's a hunger, a longing to escape
From the life I live when I'm awake
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?
Can you take me Higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me Higher?
To a place with golden streets
Although I would like our world to change
It helps me to appreciate
Those nights and those dreams
But, my friend, I'd sacrifice all those nights
If I could make the Earth and my dreams the same
The only difference is
To let love replace all our hate
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?
Can you take me Higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me Higher?
To a place with golden streets
So lets go there, lets go there,
Come on, lets go there
Lets ask can we stay?
Up high I feel like I'm alive for the very first time
Set up high I'm strong enough to take these dreams
And make them mine
Set up high I'm strong enough to take these dreams
And make them mine
Can you take me Higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me Higher?
To a place with golden streets
Can you take me Higher?
To a place where blind men see
Can you take me Higher?
Caught up in the middle
Had no choice, had no choice
Birthright forgotten
So silent, no voice
I see you, you know who
Little sister, little sister
Now realized little sister
Over looked little girl
Now realized little sister
Over looked little girl
Bottled up and empty holding back
At loss, your forgotten getting back, get back
Bottled up and empty holding back

Expectations of another
Love given to the younger
Broken father, broken brother
Emptiness feeds the hunger

Now realized little sister
Over looked little girl
No direction little sister
Over looked little girl
Change
Change
Oh, I didn't mean to yell
But sometimes I get beside myself
And oh, I didn't mean to rush you
But time keeps pushing so much
Oh, time keeps pushing so much
Your eyes stare at me in the dark
And I hope those eyes
Don't steal my freedom
My freedom
Oh, If I didn't give it all
When I stood you made me crawl
And oh, if you never heard the song
Then I could still hide down behind the wall
Then I could still hide down behind the wall
Your eyes stare at me in the dark
And I hope those eyes
Don't steal my freedom
My freedom
And I hope those eyes
Don't steal my freedom
My freedom
Said eyes, those eyes
I said don't steal my freedom
Your eyes stare at me in the dark
And I hope those eyes
Don't steal my freedom
My freedom
Oh, my freedom
Your eyes stare at me in the dark
And I hope those eyes
Don't steal my freedom
My freedom
Oh, my freedom
Said eyes, those eyes
Said eyes, those eyes
A nature to nurture
An instinct to sin
What's underneath
The skin you live in
You trade your unlimited
Your precious creation
You will submit
You will get it
Suddenly I have no strength at all
So suddenly hit with all I've lost
Suddenly my world, is falling apart
So suddenly so suddenly
Suddenly
You say you're a victim
But that's just a symptom
You're so very clear
You volunteered
Why are you fighting just stop your denying
Own up to the sin
You bury within
Suddenly I have no strength at all
So suddenly hit with all I've lost
Suddenly my world, is falling apart
So suddenly so suddenly
Suddenly
I have no stength at all
I've been hit with a loss
So suddenly my world falls apart
I have no strenght at all
I've been hit with a loss
Suddenly my world falls apart
My world, falls apart
Suddenly I have no strength at all
So suddenly hit with all I've lost
Suddenly my world, is falling apart
So suddenly so suddenly
Suddenly
Suddenly I have no strength at all
So suddenly hit with all I've lost
So suddenly hit
So suddenly hit
Suddenly my world falls apart
So suddenly so suddenly
The cradle of civilization sparks my fascination
Truth ignites a generation
To change what's been programmed
Inside the mind
Don't you turn a blind eye
Change what's been programmed inside
Don't you turn a blind eye
Listen to me when I tell you
Feel the passion in my breath
Stay on top if they let you
'Cause the change is permanent, change is permanent
Rudiments of interpersonal communication
Truth will uproot and bring [Incomprehensible] to light
Don't you turn a blind eye
Change what's been programmed inside
Staying in silence is a crime
Listen to me when I tell you
Feel the passion in my breath
Stay on top if they let you
'Cause the change is permanent, the change is permanent
Change starts in your mind, leave the past behind
Forget everything you know, make a change, let go
Change starts in your mind, leave the past behind
Forget everything you know, make a change, let go
Change starts in your mind, leave the past behind
Forget everything you know, make a change, let go
Let go, let go, let go, let go
Listen to me when I tell you
Feel the passion in my breath
Stay on top, if they let you
'Cause the change is permanent
Listen to me when I tell you
Feel the passion in my breath
Stay on top, if they let you
'Cause the change is permanent, change is permanent
Leave the past behind
Leave the past behind
Make a change, let go
He said he's falling to pieces
Fighting the boy and the man
Over his shoulder there was freedom
But consciousness has tied his hands
Embodied youth was his distinction
Now inhibition's in demand
So driven by his fear of weakness
That's his key to understand
So far in a distant land
There's a fight between boy and man
See the light through the open door
Sit and watch as the young grow old
Trading places in the circle
Turn the glass, spill the sand
They say that time can make the difference
But age doesn't make you a man
So far in a distant land
There's a fight between boy and man
See the light through the open door
Sit and watch as the young grow old
So young but overblown
So young but overblown
So young but overblown
Take a look now, see the boy is weakened
Watch him fade, watch him fade away
Take a bow and the boy is defeated
Is this the way, this the way?
So far in a distant land
There's a fight between boy and man
See the light through the open door
I can't find the rhyme in all my reason
Lost sense of time and all seasons
Feel I've been beaten down
By the words of men who have no grounds
Can't sleep beneath the trees of wisdom
When your ax has cut the roots that feed them
Forked tongues in bitter mouths
Can drive a man to bleed from inside out
What if you did?
What if you lied?
What if I avenge?
What if eye for an eye?
I've seen the wicked fruit of your vine
Destroy the man who lacks a strong mind
Human pride sings a vengeful song
Inspired by the times you've been walked on
My stage is shared by many millions
Who lift their hands up high because they feel this
We are one, we are strong
The more you hold us down, the more we press on
What if you did?
What if you lied?
What if I avenge?
What if eye for an eye?
I know I can't hold my hate inside my mind
'Cause what consumes your thoughts controls your life
So I'll just ask a question, a lonely, simple question
I'll just ask one question
What if, what if, what if, what if, what if I?
What if, what if, what if, what if, what if I?
What if, what if, what if, what if, what if I?
What if, what if, what if, what if, what if I?
What if you did?
What if you lied?
What if I avenge?
What if eye for an eye?
What if your words
Could be judged like a crime?
What if, what if, what if, what if, what if I?
What if, what if, what if, what if, what if I?
What if, what if, what if, what if, what if I?
Can you help me out? Can you let me in?
It's safe to say that I'm stuck again
Trapped between this life and the light
I just can't figure out how to make it right
A thousand times before
I've wondered if there's something more, something more
I feel it's gonna rain like this for days
So let it rain down and wash everything away
I hope that tomorrow the sun will shine
With every tomorrow comes another life
I feel it's gonna rain for days and days, I feel it's gonna rain
I tried to figure out
I can understand what it means to be whole again
Trapped between the truth and the consequence
Nothing's real, nothing's making sense
A thousand times before
I've wondered if there's something more, something more
I feel it's gonna rain like this for days
So let it rain down and wash everything away
I hope that tomorrow the sun will shine
I feel it's gonna rain like this, rain like this, rain like this
Fall down, wash away my yesterdays
Fall down, so let the rain fall down on me
I feel it's gonna rain like this for days
Let it rain down and wash everything away
I hope that tomorrow the sun will shine
I feel it's gonna rain like this, rain like this
I feel it's gonna rain like this, rain like this
When I'm all alone
And no one else is there
Waiting by the phone
To remind me
I'm still here
When shadows paint the scenes
Where spotlights used to fall
And I'm left wondering
Is it really worth it all?
There's a peace inside us all
Let it be your friend
It will help you carry on In the end
There's a peace inside us all
Life can hold you down
When you're not looking up
Can't you hear the sounds?
Hearts beating out loud
Although the names change
Inside we're all the same
Why can't we tear down these walls?
To show the scars we're covering
There's a peace inside us all
Let it be your friend
It will help you carry on In the end
There's a peace inside us all
There's a peace
Oh there's a peace inside us all
Let it be... Oh, I said let it be, let it be your friend
There's a peace inside us all
Let it be your friend
It will help you carry on In the End
There's a peace inside us all
There's a peace, inside us all, Inside us all
Let it be, Let it be, Let it be,
Let it be, Let it be, Let it be,
This is not about age
Time served on the earth doesn't mean you grow in the mind
This is not about God
Spiritual insinuations seem to shock our nation
Come with me I'm fading underneath the lights
Come with me
Come with me
Come with me now
This is not about race
It's a decision to stop the division in your life
This is not about sex
We all know sex sells and the whole world is buying
Come with me I'm fading underneath the lights
Come with me
Come with me
Come with me now
Can't you see the signs?
See the signs now
Can't you see them?
See the signs
You see them
All the signs we see them
The mouths of envious
Always find another door
While at the gates of paradise they beat us down some more
But our mission's set in stone
'Cause the writing's on the wall
I'll scream it from the mountain tops pride comes before the fall
So many thoughts to share
All this energy to give
Unlike those who hide the truth I tell it like it is
If the truth will set you free
I feel sorry for your soul
Can't you hear the ringing 'cause for you the bell tolls
I'm just a freedom fighter
No remorse
Raging on in holy war
Soon there'll come a day
When you're face to face with
Face to face with me
Can't you hear us coming?
People marching all around
Can't you see we're coming?
Close your eyes it's over now
Can't you hear us coming?
The fight has only just begun
Can't you see we're coming?
I'm just a freedom fighter
No remorse
Raging on in holy war
Soon there'll come a day
When your face to face with me
I kept up
With the prophecy you spoke
I kept up with the message inside
Lost sight of the irony
Of twisted faith
Lost sight of my soul and its void
Think I'm unforgiven to this world
Took a chance at deceiving myself
To share in the consequence of lies
Childish with my
Reasoning and pride
Godless to the extent that I died
Think I'm unforgiven to this world
Think I'm unforgiven
Step inside the light and see the fear
Of God burn inside of me
The gold was put to flame
The sun rises to another day
My constitution keeps changing till it slips away
So I lie awake and stare
My mind thinking, just wondering does anybody care
Should I stay or go?
Should I sleep or stay awake?
Am I really happy or is it all
Just an illusion?
Sitting in my room now
Hiding thoughts, just hoping one day I'll get out
I hear a voice call my name
Breaking trance so silent, so I can stay the same
Should I stay or go?
Should I sleep or stay awake?
Am I really happy or is it all
Just an illusion?
Wait now, many things are left unsaid
This life remains the same but I change
I try to fool myself in believing
Things are going to get better but life goes on
Should I stay or go?
Should I sleep or stay awake?
Am I really happy or is it all
Just an illusion?
Just an illusion, just an illusion
Just an illusion, just an illusion
Just an illusion, just an illusion
Just an illusion
I spent a day by the river
It was quiet and the wind stood still
I spent some time with nature
To remind me of all that's real
It's funny how silence speaks sometimes when you're alone
And remember that you feel
I said it's funny how silence speaks sometimes when you're alone
And remember that you feel
Again I stand, Lord I stand,
against the Faceless Man
Again I stand, Lord I stand,
against the Faceless Man
Now I saw a face on the water
It looked humble but willing to fight
I saw the will of a warrior
His yoke is easy and His burden is light
He looked me right in the eyes
Direct and concise to remind me
To always do what's right
He looked me right in the eyes
Direct and concise to remind me
To always do what's right
Again I stand. Lord I stand,
against the Faceless Man
Again I stand. Lord, God I stand,
against the Faceless Man
'Cause if the face inside can't see the light
I know I'll have to walk alone
And if I walk alone to the other side
I know I might not make it home
Again I stand, Lord I stand,
against the Faceless Man
Again I stand, Lord I stand,
against the Faceless Man
Next time I see this face
I'll say I choose to live for always
So won't you come inside And never go away
Next time I see this face
I'll say I choose to live for always
So won't you come inside And never go away
Again I stand, Lord I stand,
against the Faceless Man
Again I stand, Lord I stand,
against the Faceless Man
Again I stand, Lord I stand,
Hurray for a child that makes it through
If there's any way because the answer lies in you
They're laid to rest before they've known just what to do
Their souls are lost because
They could never find
What's this life for? What's this life for?
What's this life for? What's this life for?
I see your soul, it's kind of gray
You see my heart, you look away
You see my wrist, I know your pain
I know your purpose on your plane
Don't say a last prayer because
You could never find
What's this life for? What's this life for?
What's this life for? What's this life for?
But they ain't here anymore
Don't have to settle the score
'Cause we all live under the reign
Of one king
But they ain't here anymore
Don't have to settle no goddamn score
'Cause we all live under the reign
Of just as you know of one king, one king, one king
But they ain't here anymore
Don't have to settle no goddamn score
'Cause we all live under the reign
Of just as you know of one king, one king, one king
But they ain't here anymore
Don't have to settle no goddamn score
'Cause we all live under the reign
Please come now I think I'm falling
I'm holding on to all I think is safe
It seems I found the road to nowhere
And I'm trying to escape
I yelled back when I heard thunder
But I'm down to one last breath
And with it let me say
Let me say
Hold me now
I'm six feet from the edge
And I'm thinking maybe six feet
Ain't so far down
I'm looking down now that it's over
Reflecting on all of my mistakes
I thought I found the road to somewhere
Somewhere in His grace
I cried out, "Heaven save me"
But I'm down to one last breath
And with it let me say
Let me say
Hold me now
I'm six feet from the edge
And I'm thinking maybe six feet
Ain't so far down
Hold me now
I'm six feet from the edge
And I'm thinking maybe six feet
Ain't so far down
I'm so far down
Sad eyes follow me
But I still believe there's
Something left for me
So please come stay with me
'Cause I still believe there's
Something left for you and me
For you and me
For you and me
Hold me now
I'm six feet from the edge
And I'm thinking
Hold me now
I'm six feet from the edge
And I'm thinking maybe six feet
Ain't so far down
Hold me now
I'm six feet from the edge
And I'm thinking maybe six feet
Ain't so far down
Please come now I think I'm falling
I'm holding on to all I think is safe
The eyes around me are so cruel
With every chance, they steal my soul
So walk with me, talk with me
Hold my hand, I'm stumbling in consequence
It buries me alive
Can you fix what's made to be broken?
I can fix what's made to be
My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I'm not hiding, no
It only hurts to breathe
My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I know, it's blinding, oh
It only hurts to breathe
Standing now, I'm alone
I need answers, tell me everything you know
So heavy is the night
Exhausted whispers tend to crucify my mind
I'm fighting but I'm blind
Can you fix what's made to be broken?
I can fix what's made to be
My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I'm not hiding, no
It only hurts to breathe
My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I know, it's blinding, oh
It only hurts, it only hurts
It only hurts to breathe
I shout out
Can you hear me?
Mistakes have cost me years
Do they cost you?
Are you like me?
Tell me, please
My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I'm not hiding, no
It only hurts to breathe
My heart is tattooed on my sleeve
I know, it's blinding, oh
Hello my friend, we meet again
It's been a while, where should we begin?
Feels like forever
Within my heart are memories
Of perfect love that you gave to me
Oh I remember
When you are with me, I'm free
I'm careless, I believe
Above all the others, we'll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
My sacrifice
We've seen our share of ups and downs
Oh, how quickly life can turn around
In an instant
It feels so good to reunite
Within yourself and within your mind
Let's find peace there
?Cause when you are with me, I'm free
I'm careless, I believe
Above all the others, we'll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
My sacrifice
I just want to say hello again
I just want to say hello again
'Cause when you are with me, I'm free
I'm careless, I believe
Above all the others, we'll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
'Cause when you are with me, I'm free
I'm careless, I believe
Above all the others, we'll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
My sacrifice
My sacrifice
(I just want to say hello again)
I just want to say hello again
My sacrifice
A court is in session, a verdict is in
No appeal on the docket today
Just my own sin
The walls are cold and pale
The cage made of steel
Screams fill the room
Alone I drop and kneel
Silence now the sound
My breath the only motion around
Demons cluttering around
My face showing no emotion
Shackled by my sentence
Expecting no return
Here there is no penance
My skin begins to burn
(And I said oh) So I held my head up high
Hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride
(And I said oh) We're all held captive
Out from the sun
A sun that shines on only some
We the meek are all in one
I hear a thunder in the distance
See a vision of a cross
I feel the pain that was given
On that sad day of loss
A lion roars in the darkness
Only he holds the key
A light to free me from my burden
And grant me life eternally
Should have been dead
On a Sunday morning
Banging my head
No time for mourning
Ain't got no time{repeat}
(And I said oh) So I held my head up high
Hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride
(And I said oh) We're all held captive
Out from the sun
A sun that shines on only some
We the meek are all in one
[Guitar break]
I cry out to God
Seeking only his decision
Gabriel stands and confirms
I've created my own prison
I cry out to God
Seeking only his decision
Gabriel stands and confirms
I've created my own prison
(And I said oh) So I held my head up high
Hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride
(And I said oh) We're all held captive
Out from the sun
A sun that shines on only some
We the meek are all in one
(And I said oh) So I held my head up high
Hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride
((And I said oh) We're all held captive
Out from the sun
A sun that shines on only some
We the meek are all in one) I created I created
My own prison
Should've been dead on a Sunday morning
banging my head
No time for mourning
Well I just heard the news today
It seems my life is gonna change
I closed my eyes, begin to pray
Then tears of joy stream down my face
With arms wide open under the sunlight

Run...hide
All that was sacred to us
Sacred to us
See the signs
The covenant has been broken
By mankind
Leaving us with no shoulder...with no shoulder
To rest our head on
To rest our head on
To rest our head on
Who's got my back now?
When all we have left is deceptive
So disconnected
So what is the truth now?
There's still time
All that has been devastated
Can be recreated
Realize
We pick up the broken pieces
Of our lives
Giving ourselves to each other...ourselves to each other\
To rest our head on
To rest our head on
To rest our head on
Who's got my back now?
When all we have left is deceptive
So disconnected
So what is the truth now?
Tell me the truth now...Tell us the truth now
Who's got my back now?
When all we have left is deceptive
So disconnected
Peace is what they tell me
Love am I unholy
Lies are what they tell me
Despise you that control me
Though peace is dead in my soul
I have blamed the reasons for
My intentions poor
Yes I'm the one who
The only one who
Would carry on this far
Torn, I'm filthy
Born in my own misery
Stole all that you gave me
Control you claim you saved me
Though peace is dead in my soul
I have blamed the reasons for
My intentions poor
Yes I'm the one who
The only one who
Would carry on this far
Peace in my head
Love in my head
Lies lies lies lies in my head.
Though peace is dead in my soul
I have blamed the reasons for
My intentions poor
Yes I'm the one who
The only one who
Would carry on this far
Though peace is dead in my soul
I have blamed the reasons for
My intentions poor
Yes I'm the one who
The only one who
The dust has finally settled on the field of Human Clay
Just enough light has shown through
To tell the night from the day
We are incomplete and hollow
For our maker has gone away
Who is to blame?
We'll surely melt in the rain
Say I, Say I
Say I, Say I
Say I, Say I
The stillness is so lifeless with no spirit in your soul
Like children with no vision do exactly what they're told
Being led into the desert
For your strength will surely fade
Who is to blame?
We'll surely melt in the rain
Say I, Say I
Say I, Say I
Say I, Say I
Say I, Say I
Say I, Say I
Say I, Say I
Frantic, faction, focus
The world breathes
And out forms this misconception we call man
But I don't know him
No, I don't know him
Because he lies..They lie
Say I, yeah
Say I, yeah
Say I, yeah
Say I, Say I
Don't cry victim to me
Everything we are and used to be
Is buried and gone
Now it's my turn to speak
It's my turn to expose
Wnd release what's been killing me
I'll be dammed, fighting you, it's impossible, impossible
Say goodbye with no sympathy
I'm entitled to overcome
Completely stunned, I'm numb
Knock me down, throw me to the floor
There's no pain, I can't feel no more
I'm entitled to overcome, overcome
Finally see what's beneath
Everything I am and hope to be cannot be lost
I'll be dammed fighting you, you're impossible, impossible
Say goodbye with no sympathy
I'm entitled to overcome
Completely stunned, I'm numb
Knock me down, throw me to the floor
There's no pain, I can't feel no more
I'm entitled to overcome, overcome, overcome
You'll never know what I was thinking before you came 'round
Take a step, and take a breath, put your guard down
I cannot worry anymore of what you think of me
I may be crazy, but I'm buried in your memory
I'm entitled to overcome
Completely stunned, I'm numb
Knock me down, throw me to the floor
There's no pain, I can't feel no more
I'm entitled to overcome
Completely stunned, I'm numb
I'm entitled to overcome
Completely stunned, I'm numb
I'm entitled to overcome
The rage in my eyes
Could have compared to the eye of the sun
Then rage Took it's course through the hands of the son
Revenge for all time
The world is at war leaving all fault behind
And I ask so
Is this the end
for us my friend
So, is this the end
for us my friend
The stains on his side
Cover the sins of mankind and his pride
That night, he died
But rose once again to sit down by his side
He reigns for all time
Taking the keys back for your life
And mine
And I ask so
Is this the end for us my friend
So, is this the end for us my friend
So, is this the end for us my friend, oh yeah
But as the wind rides
As the day breaks the dawn
And as the moon hides the sun, oh the sun
No more sorrow, oh your crying days are gone
No more sorrow, now its gone, now its gone
They're gone
They're gone
They're gone
And I ask so
Is this the end for us my friend
So, is this the end for us my friend
So, is this the end for us my friend
Lines form on my face and hands
Lines form from the ups and down
I'm in the middle without any plans
I'm a boy and I'm a man
I'm eighteen and I don't know what I want
Eighteen, I just don't know what I want
Eighteen, I gotta get away
I've gotta get out of this place
I'll go running into outer space
Oh yeah
I've got a baby's brain and an old man's heart
Took eighteen years to get this far
Don't always know what I'm talking about
Feels like I'm in the middle of doubt
Cause I'm
Eighteen, I get confused everyday
Eighteen, I just don't know what to say
Eighteen, I gotta get way
Oh, lines form on my face and hands
Lines form on the left and right
I'm in the middle, the middle of life
I'm a boy and I'm a man
I'm eighteen and I like it
Yes I like it
Well, I like it, love it, like it, love it
Eighteen, eighteen eighteen
Riders on the storm.
Riders on the storm.
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out on loan.
Riders on the storm.
There's a killer on the road.
His brain is squirming like a toad.
Take a long holiday
Let your children play.
If you give this man a ride
Sweet family will die.
Killer on the road.
Girl, you gotta love your man.
Girl, you gotta love your man.
Take him by the hand
Make him understand
The world on you depends.
Our life will never end.
Girl, you gotta love your man.
Riders on the storm.
Riders on the storm
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out on loan.
Riders on the storm.
Riders on the storm.
Riders on the storm.
Riders on the storm.
You always reached out to me
And helped me believe
All those memories we share
I will cherish every one of them
For the truth of it is there's a right way to live
And you showed me
So now you live on in the words of a song
You're a melody
'Cause you stand here with me now, yeah
'Cause you stand here with me now, yeah
Just when the fear blinded me
You taught me to dream
I'll give you everything I am and still fall short of
What you've done for me
In this life that I live
I hope, I can give love unselfishly
I've learned the world is bigger than me
You're my daily dose of reality
'Cause you stand here with me now, yeah
'Cause you stand here with me now, yeah
On and on we sing, we sing this song
'Cause you stand here with me
On and on we sing
On and on we sing
On and on we sing
On and on we sing
On and on we sing
On and on we sing
On and on we sing
On and on we sing
On and on we sing
On and on we sing
On and on we sing
On and on we sing
On and on we sing
On and on we sing
'Cause you stand her with me
The rage in my eyes
Could have compared to the eye of a sun
Then rain
Took it's course through the hands of the Son
Repent for all time
The world is at war leaving all fault behind
So Is this the end for us my friend?
So Is this the end for us my friend?
The stains in the sky
Are there to remind us of man and his fight
When two worlds collide
One steals the life like a theif in the night
So look to the sky
He hold the keys for your life and mine
So Is this the end for us my friend?
So Is this the end for us my friend?
So Is this the end for us my friend?
Well as though we rise
As the day breaks the dawn
And as the moon hides the sun
Oh, the sun
No more sorrow
All those crying days are gone
No more sorrow, now it's gone
Now it's gone
Now it's gone
So Is this the end for us my friend?
So Is this the end for us my friend?
So Is this the end for us my friend?
Affirmative may be justified
Take from one give to another
The goal is to be unified
Take my hand be my brother
The payment silenced the masses
Sanctified by oppression
Unity took a backseat
Sliding further into regression
One, oh one The only way is one
One, oh one The only way is one
I feel angry I feel helpless
Want to change the world, yeah
I feel violent I feel alone
Don't try and change my mind, no
Society blind by color
Why hold down one to raise another
Discrimination now on both sides
Seeds of hate blossom further
The world is heading for mutiny
When all we want is unity
We may rise and fall, but in the end
We meet our fate together
One, oh one The only way is one
One, oh one The only way is one
I feel angry I feel helpless
Want to change the world, yeah
I feel violent I feel alone
Don't try and change my mind, no
I feel angry I feel helpless
Want to change the world, yeah
I feel violent I feel alone
Don't try to change my mind, no
Walking around I hear
The sounds of the earth seeking relief
I'm trying to find a reason to live
But the mindless clutter my path
Oh, these thorns in my side
Oh, these thorns in my side
I know I have something free
I have something so alive
But I think they shoot 'cause they want
I think they shoot 'cause they want
I think they shoot 'cause they want it
I feel forces all around me
Come on raise your head
Those who hide behind the shadows
Live with all that's dead
Look at me, look at me, look at me
Atleast look at me when you shoot
A bullet through my head
Through my head, through my head
In my lifetime when I'm disgraced
Jealousy and lies
I laugh aloud 'cause my life
Has gotten inside someone else's mind
Look at me, look at me, look at me
Atleast look at me when you shoot
A bullet through my head, through my head
Through my head, through my head
Hey, all I want is what's real
Something I touch and can feel
I'll hold it close and never let it go
Said why, why do we live this life
With all this hate inside?
I'll give it away 'cause I don't want it no more
Please help me find a place
Somewhere far away
Yes, I'll go and you'll never see me again
Look at me, look at me
Atleast look at me when you shoot
A bullet through my head
Through my head, through my head
Look at me, look at me
Atleast look at me when you shoot
A bullet through my head
Through my head, through my head
Hands on a window pane
Watching some children laugh and play
They're running in circles
With candy canes and French braids
Inspired to question
What makes us grown-ups anyway?
Let's search for the moment
When youth betrayed itself to age
So let the children play
Inside your heart always
And death you will defy
'Cause your youth will never die
Never Die
In searching for substance
We're clouded by struggle's haze
Remember the meaning
Of playing out in the rain
We swim in the fountain
Of youth's timeless maze
If you drink the water
Your youth will never fade
So let the children play
Inside your heart always
And death you will defy
'Cause your youth will never die
Never Die
Never Die
Never Die
I won't let go of that youthful soul
Despite body and mind my youth will never die
I won't let go of that youthful soul
Despite body and mind my youth will never die
So let the children play
Inside your heart always
And death you will defy
'Cause your youth will never die
So let the children play
Inside your heart always
And death you will defy
'Cause your youth will never die
Only in America
We're slaves to be free
Only in America we kill the unborn
To make ends meet
Only in America
Sexuality is democracy
Only in America we stamp our god
"In God We Trust"
What is right or wrong
I don't know who to believe in
My soul sings a different song
In America
What is right or wrong
I don't know who to believe in
My soul sings a different song
In America, In America, In America
Church bell's ringing
Pass the plate around
The choir is singing
As their leader falls to the ground
Please mister prophet man
Tell me which way to go
I gave my last dollar
Can I still come to your show
What is right or wrong
I don't know who to believe in
My soul sings a different song
In America
What is right or wrong
I don't know who to believe in
My soul sings a different song
In America, In America, In America, In America
I am right and you are wrong
I am right and you are wrong
I am right and you are wrong
No one's right and no one's wrong
In America, In America, In America, In America
What is right or wrong
I don't know who to believe in
My soul sings a different song
In America, In America
What is right or wrong
I don't know who to believe in
My soul sings a different song
In America, In America,
What is right for you and me?
She came calling
One early morning
She showed her crown of thorns
She whispered softly
To tell a story
About how she had been wronged
As she lay lifeless
He stole her innocence
And this is how she carried on
Well I guess she closed her eyes
And just imagined everything's alright
But she could not hide her tears
'Cause they were sent to wash away those years
They were sent to wash away those years
My anger's violent
But still I'm silent
When tragedy strikes at home
I know this decadence Is shared by millions
Remember you're not alone
For we have crossed many oceans
And we labor in between
In life there are many quotients
And I hope I find the mean
She wears a coat of color
Loved by some, feared by others
She's immortalized in young men's eyes
Lust she breeds in the eyes of brothers
Violent sons make bitter mothers
So close your eyes, here's your surprise
The Beautiful is empty
Beautiful is free
Beautiful loves no one
Beautiful stripped me
Stripped me
Stripped me
She Stripped me
In your mind she's your companion
Vile instincts often candid
Your regret is all that's left
The Beautiful is empty
Beautiful is free
Beautiful loves no one
Beautiful stripped me
Stripped me
Stripped me
She Stripped me
She told me where I'm going
And it's far away from home
I think I'll go there on my own
I think I'll go there on my own
She told me where I'm going
And it's far away from home
I think I'll go there on my own
I think I'll go there on my own
The Beautiful is empty
Beautiful is free
Beautiful loves no one
Beautiful stripped me
Stripped me
Stripped me
She Stripped me
She Stripped me

I lie awake on a long dark night
I can't seem to tame my mind
Slings and arrows are killin' me inside
Maybe I can't accept the life that's mine
No, maybe I can't accept the life that's mine
Simple livin' is my desperate cry
Been tradin' love with indifference
An', yeah, it suits me just fine
I try to hold on but I'm calloused to the bone
Maybe that's why I feel alone, yeah
Maybe that's why I feel so alone
'Cause me, I'm rusted and weathered
Barely holdin' together
I'm covered with skin that peels
And it just won't heal
I am rusted and weathered
Barely holdin' together
I'm covered with skin that peels
And it just won't heal
No, it just won't heal, no, no, no
The sun shines and I can't avoid the light
I think I'm holdin' on to life too tight
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Sometimes I feel like givin' up, yeah
I said, sometimes I feel like givin' up
'Cause me, I'm rusted and weathered
Barely holdin' together
I'm covered with skin that peels
And it just won't heal
I am rusted and weathered
Barely holdin' together
I'm covered with skin that peels
And it just won't heal
It just won't heal, no
The day reminds me of you
The night hides your truth
The earth is a voice
Speaking to you
Take all this pride
And leave it behind
'Cause one day it ends
One day we die
Believe what you will
That is your right
But I choose to win
I choose to fight, to fight
'Cause me I'm rusted and weathered
Barely holdin' together
I'm covered with skin that peels
And it just won't heal
I am rusted and weathered
Barely holdin' together
I'm covered with skin that peels
And It just won't
Covered with skin that peels
And it just won't
Covered with skin that peels
And it just won't heal
I can’t explain can’t quite put my finger on
The difference that makes us so different
We’ve said everything our words only betrayed us
Nothing is left, nothing was left unsaid
Chorus
This time I have nothing left to lose
I’m stuck the second hand won’t move
It’s about time that I speak my mind
It’s about time, about time I find
Pieces of me I have lost
Without any choice I move on
Hey time you’re no friend of mine
Hey time you’re no friend of mine
You cover yourself, you cover your skin
You cover yourself like you cover your sin
Please untie my hands, I’m a sinner, I’m a man
I ask for one minute to make you understand
Chorus
This time I have nothing left to lose
I’m stuck the second hand won’t move
It’s about time that I speak my mind
It’s about time, about time I find
Pieces of me I have lost
Without any choice I move on
Hey time you’re no friend of mine
Hey time you’re no friend of mine
Will you be there to catch me when I stumble
When I fall, when I fall
It’s so very clear you left me when I had no one at all
No one at all
Who will be there to catch me
To catch me when I stumble
When I fall, when I fall
It’s so very clear you left me
You left me with no one at all, no one at all
Chorus
This time I have nothing left to lose
I’m stuck the second hand won’t move
It’s about time that I speak my mind
It’s about time, about time I find
Pieces of me I have lost
Without any choice I move on
Hey time you’re no friend of mine
Hey time you’re no friend of mine
No friend of mine
Time you’re no friend of mine
You’re no friend of mine
Hey time you’re not friend of mine
Hey time you’re not friend of mine
The pieces of me I have lost
Without any choice I move on
Time, time you’re no friend of mine
Hang me, watch awhile
Let me see you smile as I die
Take me, as my body burns
Let me see you yearn, while I cry
One step on your own
And you walk all over me
One head in the clouds
You won't let go
You're too proud
One light to the blind, and they see
One touch on the head, we believe
Adore me as I drift away
Let me hear you say I'm fine
You cry as my body dies
All that you despised is gone away
One step on your own
And you walk all over me
One head in the clouds
You won't let go, you're too proud
One light to the blind, and they see
One touch on the head, we believe
We believe
One step on your own
And you walk all over me
One head in the clouds
You won't let go, you're too proud
One light to the blind, and they see
One touch on the head, we believe
An artificial season
Covered by summer rain
Losing all my reason
Cause there's nothing left to blame
Shadows paint the sidewalk
A living picture in a frame
See the sea of people
All their faces look the same
So I sat down for awhile
Forcing a smile
In a state of self-denial
Is it worthwhile
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime
Plain talk can be the easy way
Signs of losing my faith
Losing my faith
Plain talk can be the easy way
Signs of losing my faith
Losing my faith
So I sat down for awhile
Yeah, Forcing a smile
In a state of self-denial
Yeah, Is it worthwhile
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime
So I sat down for awhile
Yeah, Forcing a smile
In a state of self-denial
Yeah, Is it worthwhile
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime
Sell my pity for a dime
Please come now
I think I'm falling
I'm holding on to what I think is safe
It seems I've found the road to no where
And I'm trying to escape
I yelled back when I heard thunder
But I'm down to one last breath
And with it let me say
Let me say...
CHORUS
Hold me now
I'm 6 feet from the edge
And I'm thinkin
Maybe 6 feet ain't so far down
I'm lookin down
Now that its over
Reflecting on all of my mistakes
I thought I found the road to somewhere
Somewhere in His grace
I cried out
Heaven save me
But I'm down to one last breath
And with it let me say
Let me say
(CHORUS)
Hold me now
I'm 6 feet from the edge
And I'm thinkin
Maybe 6 feet ain't so far down
(repeat)
I'm so far down
Sad eyes follow me
Well I still believe there's something left for me
So please come stay with me
Cause I still believe there's something left for you and me...
For you and me...For you and me
Hold me now
I'm 6 feet from the edge
And I'm thinkin
Hold me now
I'm 6 feet from the edge
And I'm thinkin
Maybe 6 feet ain't so far down....
(repeat)
Please come now
I think I'm falling
Hush my love now don't you cry
Everything will be all right
Close your eyes and drift in dream
Rest in peaceful sleep
If there's one thing I hope I showed you
If there's one thing I hope I showed you
Hope I showed you
Just give love to all
Just give love to all
Just give love to all
Oh my love in my arms tight
Every day you give me life
As I drift off to your world
Rest in peaceful sleep
I know there's one thing that you showed me
I know there's one thing that you showed me
That you showed me
Just give love to all
Just give love to all
Just give love to all
Let's give love to all
Let's give love to all
Just give love to all
Let's give love to all
Just give love to all
You walked away in silence
You walked away to breathe
Stopped and turned to say goodbye to me
I'm pleading as your leaving I'm begging you stay
I'm not the man I used to be, I've changed
I'm not the man I used to be, I've changed
Don't give up on us, don't give up on love
Don't give up on us, don't give up on love
If my life is the price, then my life it will cost
Now that I'm picking up the pieces see the pain that I have caused
It's hard to believe in someone you thought was lost
Don't give up on us, don't give up on love
Don't you walk away in silence
In tears you counted reasons
Tears convered you it seemed
Face down screaming "god help me please!"
I'm pleading as you leaving; I'm begging you to stay
I'm not the man I used to be, i've changed
I'm not the man I used to be, i've changed
Don't give up on us, don't give up on love
Don't give up on us, don't give up on love
If my life is the price, then my life it will cost
It will cost my life
Now that I'm picking up the pieces see the pain that I have caused
It's hard to believe in someone you thought was lost
Don't give up on us, don't give up on love
Don't you walk away in silence
Please come back to me
Don't you walk away in silence
I'm not the man I used to be!
Well I pray that tomorrow you'll be home
We can rebuild and forever we can go on
Go on, and go on
We can go on, well I pray that tomorrow you'll be home
Look at horizons and let the light bring you home, bring you home
Don't give up on us, don't give up on love
Don't give up on us, don't give up on love
If my life is the price, then my life it will cost
Now that I'm picking up the pieces see the pain that I have caused
It's hard to believe in someone you thought was lost
Don't give up on us, don't give up on love
Don't you walk away in silence
Please come back to me
Don't you walk away in silence
Toung-tied, wrist wrist, and wanting
Looks like you might bite, you might bite
Breathin in, breathin out, you're weakened
The poison's hit your mind, your mind.
Time's ticking and its got ya thinking,
You're happy with your life, your life
You're cheated, slated and singled out
by all those chains that bind, that bind
Take a trip, plane my way lately
Cause now you are mine, you are mine
This airplane's goin my way
cause now you're bound and tied
You're bound and tied
You're bound and tied
Now sit and reflect on all the fame
Time to dim your light, your light
Zoomin in, zoomin out, you're questioning,
For that there is no crime, no crime
You're cheated, slated and singled out,
by all those chains that bind, that bind
Take a trip plane my way lately
Cause now you are mine, you are mine
This airplane's goin my way
Cause now you're bound and tied
You're bound and tied
You're bound and tied
And we fly...we fly...we fly
And we fly...we fly...we fly
And we fly...and we fly....away, away
Bound and tied, bound and tied
You're Bound and Tied
Bound and tied, bound and tied
You're Bound and Tied
Bound and tied, bound and tied
