I need you, and you need me
Left alone, we will never be who we could be
So take my hand and, don't forget that
We can do anything together
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Just one drop of your love
A single ray of sun
Just one thing to change the world
It's just you and me
Starting with a dream
And giving it all we've got
Only takes one drop
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Only takes one drop
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Only takes one drop
Only takes one drop
Come with me now, look and see how
There's an ocean overflowing with our hope so
Let's jump in and, take a swim, it's
You and me, yeah forever
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Just one drop of your love
A single ray of sun
Just one thing to change the world
It's just you and me
Starting with a dream
And giving it all we've got
Only takes one drop
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Only takes one drop
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Only takes one drop
Only takes one drop
I need you, and you need me
We can do anything together
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Just one drop of your love
A single ray of sun
Just one thing to change the world
It's just you and me
Starting with a dream
And giving it all we've got
Only takes one drop
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Only takes one drop
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Only takes one drop
It will be great to see you again
Now that the old wounds have mended
I promise I'll be waiting by the door
Unlike so many nights before
That night you found me in the living room
Alone with the bottle I'd just consumed
I cried for hours after you had left
Must be hard to forgive
Even harder to forget
Take the 2nd right at the 2nd light
Pass Cherry Street, go left
It's the second house with the willow tree
I'll be there, waiting
Now that I've watched all the seasons change
I've had time to see where my life had strayed
And through every pain and disbelief
You stood close by
Through my lies, through my deceit
So do you recall
How to get here
You might not recognize
What you see
Through my selfishness
Couldn't see where you were coming from
It took your leaving to see
To see what I'd become
You saw past all the things I'd done
I'll be there, waiting
I'll be there, waiting
You never forgot how to get here
You never forgot how to get here
I'm never told that I am pretty
I'm never told that I am kind
And my soul burns now with fire
Deep inside
I want to become brave and courageous
Not buried in self-pity of my own
Ashamed and alone from all
That's been done to me
It's not my fault I remind myself
You say don't be afraid
But I feel afraid
You say don't laugh or cry
But I show emotion
You say food will be on the table
And birds in the sky
But I'm hungry
So hungry
And it's cloudy outside
You never loved me like a daughter
You never even loved yourself
And now you treat me like a burden
Just another object on your shelf
I want you to know now that I love you
And this pain that I carry's not my own
Ashamed and alone
From all that's been done to you
It's not you fault
I remind myself
No matter what I've done
Or is done to me
Nothing's unforgivable
Can see you standing in the pouring rain
Waiting for changes to carry you away
I can see the light fall from your eyes
As we get lost in the tears of this goodbye
But you can't go farther
Than my heart can go
Cause I'll still be loving you
Through the sadness and the madness here
And I'll always be with you
In the distance
That has taken you
From me
I can hear you laugh
When I close my eyes
I can picture your face
And the strength inside your smile
I can see the words
Dance across your lips
I'll remember forever
Something more than this
And you can't go farther
Than my heart can will go
Cause I'll still be loving you
Thought the sadness and the madness here
And I'll always be with you
In the distance
That has taken you
Fom me
So you can't go farther
Than my heart will go
Cause I'll still be loving you
Thought the sadness and the madness here
And I'll always be with you
In the distance
That has taken you
From me
And I'll always be with you
In the distance
That has taken you
From me
That has taken you
Oh I feel so tired
I cannot hardly keep open
My eyes
My thoughts are scattered
and I cannot say a word
and I can't seen to remember
anything I've learned
Well do you have some of those days
When you can't be who you wanna be
When you just need to close your eyes
Pull the covers up so high and drift away
and sleep so soundly
and dream profoundly
Cast all your cares on the
Only thing that you really need
and sleep so soundly
Now I feel so light
My sense of movement's slowed
and somehow my tongue's tied
My thoughts are shattered
and they're making stars in the sky
and I've never felt so speechless
in my life
Well do you have some of those days
When you just need, you just need to be
When you just need to shut your mouth
Close your eyes breathe in and out and
Drift away
Sleep so soundly
and dream, just dream profoundly
Send angels, send angels, send angels
Show me you love me
Send angels, send angels, send angels
Show me you love me
He felt alone and aging unkind
He knew there was trouble with this war inside
So to feel young he did what he felt best
Emptiness filling every vein
He must be going insane
To leave an entire world behind
Crying the tears he lost as a child
He couldn't even recognize
The frail and injured man that he'd become
Traces of his compromise
Shattering his desperate tries
You ran around inside my head
When you passed out, I felt dead
And I realized you make me live
And when my world starts to cave in, you jump inside and take my hand
No matter where, you are there
Will I ever see, what you could see in me?
I do, I just believe that we will always be and dream, yeah
Well I will never be the same and when they see
that you and I were meant to be they'll just believe why we
are together
You are my light, you are my star, you are my sunshine and my dark
You are the everything I dreamed about
You are the guy who stole my heart
I am the girl you're always fighting for
We have a love people dream about
A real life fairytale
I thought that I would be alone
You caught my eye and I was home
And I realized that this was love
I see the world through different eyes
I look at you by my side
No matter where, you're always there
Will I ever see what you could see in me?
I do, I just believe that we will always be and dream, yeah
Well I will never be the same and when they see
that you and I were meant to be they'll just believe why we
are together
You are my light, you are my star
You are my sunshine and my dark
You are the everything I dreamed about
You are the guy who stole my heart
I am the girl you're always fighting for
We have a love people dream about
Dream with me, make me believe that this is a real life fairytale!
You are my light, you are my star
You are my sunshine, and my dark
You are the everything I dreamed about!
You are the guy who stole my heart
I am the girl you're always fighting for
We have a love people dream about
A real life fairytale
A real life fairtytale
Look at me I'm twenty three
Beautiful a sight to see
Tonight
A little dress to draw the press
And I'll be leaving
All the rest behind
Well be pleased girl
If this is what you wanted
The whole world is watching you take the stage
What will you say
Aren't I lovely
And do you want me cause
I am hungry for something that will make me real
Can you see me and
Do you love me cause
I am desperately searching for something
Real
I close my eyes imagine time
Will not forget
My sacrifice
I numb the ache and decorate
My emptiness
Stand naked in the light
Well be pleased world
If this is what you wanted
This young girl is everything that you made
What will she say
Aren't I lovely
And do you want me cause
I am hungry for something that will make me real
Can you see me and
Do you love me cause
I am desperately searching for something
Real
The world goes home
The lights go down
My lipstick fades
Away
And do you want me cause
I am hungry for something that will make me real
Can you see me and
Do you love me cause
I am desperately searching for something
Here is where the road divides
Here is where we realize
The sculpting of the father's great design
Thru' time you've been a friend to me
But time is now the enemy
I wish we didn't have to say goodbye
But I know the road he chose for me
Is not the road he chose for you
So as we chase the dreams we're after
[Chorus]
Pray for me and I'll pray for you
Pray that we will keep the common ground
Won't you pray for me and I'll pray for you
And one day love will bring us back around again
Painted on our tapestry
We see the way it has to be
Weaving thru' the laughter and the tears
But love will be the tie that binds us
To the time we leave behind us
Memories will be our souvenirs
And I know that thru' it all
The hardest part of love is letting go
But there's a greater love that holds us
[Chorus x2]
You didn't care about me
So i packed my bags
And left you to wonder
What you could've done better
To make our love stronger
We could have lasted forever and longer
But we'll never know how good it could be
This isn't how it should be
I couldn't laugh
I couldn't cry
I couldn't waste another day
I couldn't live
I couldn't lie low any longer
I couldn't laugh
I couldn't cry
I couldn't waste another day
I couldn't live
I couldn't lie low any longer
Did you ever care about me?
I remember the time
You looked in my eyes and promised
We'd stay together
Our love would grow stronger
The storms we have weathered
Wouldn't last any longer
It could've been so good
Your baby blues, so full of wonder
Your curly cues, your contagious smile
And as I watch, you start to grow up
All I can do is hold you tight
Knowing clouds will rage
And storms will race in but you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down, waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms
Story books full of fairy tales
Of kings and queens and the bluest skies
My heart is torn just in knowing
You'll someday see the truth from lies
When the clouds will rage
And storms will race in but you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down, waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms
Castles they might crumble
Dreams may not come true
But you are never all alone
Because I will always, always love you
When the clouds will rage
And storms will race in but you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down, waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms, in my arms
in my head i have dreams
I have visions of many thing
Questions longings in my mind
Pictures fill my head
I feel so trapped instead but
Trapped doesn't seem so bad
'cause you are here
It doesn't mean anything
Without you here with me
And i can try to justify
But i still need you here with me
In my heart i had hope
Built on dreams i'll never know
Answers to love left behind
Visions filled my head
I felt so trapped instead but
Trapped doesn't seem so bad
'cause you were near
I can't do anything without you
You give me strength to do anything
I can't be everything i try to
You saved me from the everything
I couldn't be
It doesn't mean anything
Without you here with me
'cause after all is said and done
I still need you here with me
Need you here with me
hang on
when the water is rising
hang on
when the waves are crashing
hang on
just dont ever let go
im so stubborn
its how i got here
so long
feels like forever
wanna swim away
and breath the open air
but i feel so affraid
that i heard you say
hang on
when the water is rising
hang on
when the waves are crashing
hang on
just dont ever let go
hang on
when your barely breathing
hang on
when your hearts still beating
hang on
just dont ever let go
im so hungry
how can i stay here
im starving
for what i hold so dear
like a hurricane
it takes every thing
from me
wake me from this dream
hang on
when the water is rising
hang on
when the waves are crashing
hang on
just dont ever let go
hang on
when your barely breathing
hang on
when your hearts still beating
hang on
just dont ever let go
three days, thirty years
so hopeless doesnt matter
dont say its to late
if you blink your eyes
the son is rising
the son is rising
hang on
when the water is rising
hang on
when the waves are crashing
hang on
just dont ever let go
hang on
when your barely breathing
hang on
when your hearts still beating
hang on
Every point of view has another angle
And every angle has its merit
But all comes down to faith
Thats the way i see it
You can say that love is not divine and
You can say that life is not eternal
"all we have is know"
But i don't believe it
There's a god-shaped hole in all of us
And the restless soul is searching
There's a god-shaped hole in all of us
And it's a void only he can fill
Does the world seem gray with empty longing
Wearing every shade of cynical
And do you ever feel that
There is something missing?
I was frozen in a fragile world
Of make believe and empty lies, empty lies
Twisting the rules
Of a virtuous game
And captured by the thought of fear
And loneliness afraid to cry, afraid to cry
Suffocating
Trying to scream
'Cause I wanted out
To find myself
'Cause perfect only makes you crazy
There is now way that it could save me
I'm sick of feeling like a traitor
Is this the price for good behavior?
Oh, my naked skin
Feels the warmth of the sun, of the sun
My eyes are open
To the brightness of life
I'm driven by a force so free
To live this life not paralyzed, not paralyzed
But with reckless abandon
So now I can breath
'Cause I wanted out
To find myself
'Cause perfect only makes you crazy
There is now way that it could save me
I'm sick of feeling like a trader
Is this the price for good behavior?
Don't do this
Don't do that
You will be
Out abandoned
Don't do this
Don't do that
You will be
Out abandoned
[Incomprehensible]
'Cause perfect only makes you crazy
There is now way that it could save me
I'm sick of feeling like a trader
You thought you had me all tied up in a little knot
You thought I'd go on living just
Like you like you until you asked me nicely to stop
But suprise
I'm free,
I'm free,
I'm Free
To be the girl you tried to steal
You thought I'd freeze outwithered and abandoned
Now you know differently that
I'm gonna live much more than you ever imagined
So suprise
I'm free
I'm free
I'm free
To be the girl you tried to steal
To be the girl you tried to steal from me
It isn't every day
Someone sets you free
And gives you walking papers
To be the real thing
I'm free
I'm free
I'm free
To be the girl you tried to steal
I'm free
I'm free, yea
I'm free
To be the girl you tried to steal
Dreaming comes so easily
'Cause it's all that I've known
True love is a fairytale
I'm damaged so how would I know?
Pre-chorus: I'm scared and I'm alone
I'm ashamed
And I need for you to know
Chorus: I didn't say all the things that I wanted to say
And you can't take back what you've taken away,
'Cause I feel you, I feel you near me (x2)
Healing comes so painfully
And it chills to the bone
Will anyone get close to me?
I'm damaged as I'm sure you know
Pre-chorus
Chorus
There's mending for my soul
An ending to this fear
Forgiveness for a man who was stronger
I was just a little girl but I can't go back
Pre-chorus
Chorus
I can't go back (x5)
I must go on (x3)
There is healing
There is peace
There is freedom from fear
And He will love you
Like no one's loved you
And you will never be afraid, yeah
Halleluea,yeah (x2)
Halleluea to His name, yeah
Halleluea (x3)
Yeah (x4)
Halleluea (x2)
Halleluea to His name
We are His children
And much He loves you
I'm not a stranger, no, I am yours
With crippled anger and tears that still drip sore
A fragile frame aged with misery
And when our eyes meet I know you'll see
I do not wanna be afraid
I do not wanna die inside just to breathe in
I'm tired of feeling so numb
Relief exists, I find it when I am cut
I may seem crazy or painfully shy
And these scars wouldn't be so hidden
If you would just look me in the eye
I feel alone here and cold here
Though I don't want to die
But the only anesthetic
That makes me feel anything kills inside
I do not wanna be afraid
I do not wanna die inside just to breathe in
I'm tired of feeling so numb
Relief exists, I find it when I am cut
Pain, I am not alone, I am not alone
Not a stranger, no, I am yours
With crippled anger
Tears that still drip sore
But I do not wanna be afraid
I do not wanna die inside just to breathe in
I'm tired of feeling so numb
Relief exists, I found it when I was cut
Children of the heav?nly Father
Safely in His bosom gather
Nestling bird nor star in Heaven
Such a refuge e?er was given
God, His own doth tend and nourish
In His holy courts they flourish
From all evil things He spares them
In His mighty arms He bears them
Neither life nor death shall ever
From the Lord, His children sever
Unto them His grace He showeth
And their sorrows all He knoweth
Though He giveth or He taketh
God His children ne?er forsaketh
His, the loving purpose solely
To preserve them, pure and holy
Lo, their very hairs He numbers
And no daily care encumbers
Them that share His ev?ry blessing
And His help in woes distressing
Praise the Lord in joyful numbers
Your Protector never slumbers
At the will of your Defender
Ev?ry foeman must surrender
Children of the heav?nly Father
Safely in His bosom gather
Nestling bird nor star in Heaven
What is this
Mass confusion
This crazy way we're living
This emptiness we're passing out
Like candycoatedwaterdrops
I'm spilling out my thoughts
You're spilling out your guts
And i can't help but stop and think that
If the world stopped spinning
If the end was beginning
Would you even notice if i wasn't there?
If the world stopped spinning around
"all that's worth dying for is already dead"
An empty religion you've learned to accept
When nothing means everything, your
Daily routine
You go through the motions like a
Helpless machine
You're spinning 'round
You're spinning 'round
But i can't help wondering
You're spinning 'round
You're spinning 'round
But i can't help wondering
When the answers to everything are right
In your hands
You lose your conviction, but you can't
Help standing
On the one thing that held you for so
Many years
You ask for forgiveness and hold back the
I'd like to remember
I'd like to know how you are
I'd like to know everything you'll be
Wherever you go, what will you do?
When the world's right in front of you
When I think of us, slowly life passes by
And I blink and you're growing, no longer a child
What I can do to capture this moment in time
Is to sing you a lullaby
I like to watch you dream
I like to touch your face
I like to hold you in a sweet embrace
Whenever you laugh, whenever you cry
And when you need a special place to hide
When I think of us, slowly life passes by
And I blink and you're growing, no longer a child
What I can do to capture this moment in time
Is to sing you a lullaby
When I think of us, slowly life passes by
And I blink and you're growing, no longer a child
What I can do to capture this moment in time
Out of nowhere you came
From a little dust and a little rain
And when I looked down on your face
It showed to me the truth and grace
I will always try to keep you very safe
So open up your eyes
So they can look in mine
And see your small reflection
And when you close your eyes
I pray the thoughts inside
Are beautiful and true
I won't always be this strong
And I won't always be the one
To kiss the bruise or heal the scrapes
To wipe the tear drops from your face
And I will always love you more each day
So open up your eyes
So they can look in mine
And see your small reflection
And when you close your eyes
I pray the thoughts inside
Are beautiful and true
I will always love you more each day
I will always try to keep you safe
So open up your eyes
So they can look in mine
And see your small reflection
And when you close your eyes
I pray the thoughts inside
Are beautiful and true
Been there before
Slowly drifting out to sea
Away from the tide
And a darkness surrounds me
I'm out of hope
I'm out of strength this time
I've never seen it
No, I've never heard it
I've never been it
But I'm searching for it
I've never seen it
No, I've never heard it
I've never been it
But I'm searching for it
A breath of air
A calm that surrounds me
But I want to know how
To let it inside
It gives me peace
It frees this pain I hide
I'm sick, i'm tired
I can't sleep 'cause i'm so wired
I don't know if i can take this
I don't know how to love you
Tick tock inside
Tossing, turning, i feel blind
Sun is up, the rain pours in
Another day of no end
Grab it, kick it, smash it
Love it, loathe it, yeah, yeah
Hold it, throw it, crave it
Searching for my solace
Tiptoe, bend, break
Cold night air, i start to shake
My eye's red, my tongue is dry
These long nights are never kind
I tried to find myself
A lonely cross to bear
And then tried to looking somewhere else
And i failed
I looked until my luck ran out
And the i saw your face
You picked me up and brushed me off
La dum da da dum
Take the cup of delusion
This empty hole inside
Drinks the wine of remorse
And giving cause to stumble
It's sobering, the changes
Don't turn around
Don't walk away
Don't try to lead
When you don't know
La dum da da dum
Blotting out the stains of nonsense
And drenched in this desire
Spilling from an empty cup
You bury guilt like sin
Hurling smiles and judgments
The blatant tone of your soul
Creates a blackness deep within
Bitterness trickles through
This vein of tenderness.
La dum la da dum
La dum la da dum
You know it only breaks my heart
To see you standing in the dark alone
Waiting there for me to come back
I'm too afraid to show
If it's coming over you
Like it's coming over me
I'm crashing like a tidal wave
That drags me out to the sea
And i wanna be with you
And you wanna be with me
I'm crashing like a tidal wave
And i don't wanna be
Stranded, stranded, stranded, stranded
I can only take so much
These tears are turning me to rust
I know you're waiting there for me to
Come back
I'm to afraid to show
I miss you, i need you
Without you, i'm stranded
I love you so come back
Blind soul lost in Chicago
She fell asleep under a bridge
Drowning out the sound of her sorrow
She's finding it hard to exist
She keeps running into herself
Hoping to find sombody else
She keep running into herself
Hoping that she'll get out of wonderland
Fame and fortune didn't become her
So she says pennyless
Needing so much more than tomorrow
As she stares at the scars on her wrist
She keeps running into herself
Hoping to find somebody else
She keeps running into herself
Hush
I can hear you breathing
Sweet
The taste of your tender kiss
I'm crazy, crazy tonight
Baby hold me tonight
Capture my heart
Hold me til morning
Love me right now
Catch me, I'm falling
Never let go
Hold me til morning
Love me right now
Stop
Let my love surround you
Safe
My face inside your hands
I'm crazy, crazy tonight
Baby hold me tonight
Capture my heart
Hold me til morning
Love me right now
Catch me, I'm falling
Never let go
Hold me til morning
Love me
And I will never be the same again
Tonight lives forever in my dreams
And I will be there when the morning comes
Tonight lasts forever
Hold me til morning
Love me right now
Catch me, I'm falling
Never let go
Hold me til morning
Love me
Hold me til morning
Love me right now
Catch me, I'm falling
Never let go
Hold me til morning
Love me
I woke up late
Guess I'm never realy earlly
I hesitate, only to fail
I get so tired, of procrastinating
I need a change
[Chorus:]
I can't do this
I can't do this
I can't do this by myself
I can't do this
I can't do this
Oh God, I need Your help
I'm standing still,
I'm oh, so peaceful
I can't pretend, that I'm fine
I get so ill, crazy agitated
When I've not really died
I can’t do this
I can’t do this
I can’t do this by myself
I can’t do this
I can’t do this
Oh God, I need Your help
Press into me
Breathe me in
Bask in me
You'll be free to do anything
I can’t do this
I can’t do this
I can’t do this by myself
I can’t do this
I can’t do this
Oh God, I need Your help
I can’t do this
I can’t do this
I can’t do this by myself
I can’t do this
I can’t do this
Oh God, I need Your help
Bask in me
I know that you're on the inside
You know that I'm looking out
For me
You're sitting pretty
As I wallow in self-pity
And there's no coming back for me
You're crazy for thinking I'm above this
You're crazy for believing I don't care
You're crazy for thinking I'm below you
You're crazy, you're crazy
My ambition and every intention
Is to go where I shouldn't go
Pleasing to my eyes
Through a wretched reply
The world ends without a tragedy
Time is melting into history
The sky is falling
Voices crying out in desperation
Here them calling
Everybody, save yourself
The world plays its angered symphony
Lost inside eternal mystery
Doesn't matter what you say
Doesn't matter what you do
We all end up this way
There's one thing left to save you
The sky is falling
Voices crying out in desperation
Hear them calling
You can never save yourself
Tiffany's mom: "and what are you gonna do when you get married?"
Tiffany age 3: "um, just love'em"
Tiffany's mom: "just love'em?"
Tiffany age 3: "yeah and kiss em"
Tiffany's mom: "and kiss em too?"
Tiffany's brother: " she's my first girlfriend, I mean she's a girl??"
Take the blame for saving lives
You've got the sunset in your eyes
And you've got the glory on your mind
Your good intentions are hard to find
You're drugstore jesus
The miracle is gone
You're drugstore jesus
A saint for everyone
You've thrown your soul away
All your gold turns to dust
And all your masses lose your trust
This grand illusion, this planned confusion
This substitution is tainted love
In a world turned upside down
Can the truth be turned around?
In a world turned upside down
Can the truth be turned around?
You're drugstore jesus
The miracle is gone
You're drugstore jesus
A saint for everyone
Questions drip from my umbrella
Shadows hang over me
Stand here, waiting
I know the sky will break
And bleed its light
And kiss my face with mercy
I'll endure the rain
I will wait an hour more
Not sure if I'll see anything
Can I wait here anymore
I'll endure the rain
I will wait an hour more
Not sure if I'll see anything
Can I wait here any longer
Teardrops vanish in a moment
Rainbows hang over me
Darkness, fading
I know the sky will break
And bleed its light
And kiss my face with mercy
Can I wait here any longer
I've been carrying this old luggage
And it's really been buggin' me
So when you called to me see
I couldn't believe it, could it really be?
You need to feel forgiveness
I need to feel resentment running down the drain
This bruising chain I've carried
Is the pain that I am burying today
Now I can breathe
And I feel grace rush over me
It pours through my skin
And lets you in and we are free, yeah
Now I can breathe
And I feel grace rush over me
It runs through my veins
And what I taste is bittersweet
The clock is always ticking
Bitterness grows by the minute, why can't we realize
The wounds that we're inflicting on our own flesh
It isn't healing by keeping love inside, yeah
Now I can breathe
And I feel grace rush over me
It pours through my skin
And lets you in and we are free, yeah
Now I can breathe
And I feel grace rush over me
It runs through my veins
And what I taste is bittersweet, yeah
Now I can breathe
And I feel grace rush over me
It pours through my skin
And lets you in and we are free, yeah
Now I can breathe
And I feel grace rush over me
It runs through my veins
You sit there on the couch
Sipping your scotch and ice
You turn the TV on
And tune me out again
So what would you say to me
If you could talk to me
You could ask anything
I wouldn't lie
But you're okay with this
Damaging awkwardness
So I'll just play it safe
And keep it inside
'Cause boys don't cry
I used to hold your hand
So tight there was no question
But now even when you're near
I've never felt so alone
So what would you say to me
If you could talk to me
You could ask anything
I wouldn't lie
But you're okay with this
Damaging awkwardness
So I'll just play it safe
And keep it inside
'Cause boys don't cry
If you just stand beside me
I'll keep you in my life
Tell me how much you love me
And I'll be just fine
Don't be afraid of me
So what would you say to me
If you could talk to me
You could ask anything
I wouldn't lie
But you're okay with this
Damaging awkwardness
So I'll just play it safe
And keep it inside
She breathes in
She breathes out
She wakes up
and lays down
She can hardly speak
and so she screams
I won't give again
because she takes so often
Nothing I say will wash it away
I'm standing in the pouring rain
You say it won't happen again
You're manic, manic
There is a chemical in your brain
It's pouring sunshine and rage
You can never know what to expect
You're manic, manic
She loves you
and hates you
You break down
She feels good
She will bleed from insecurity
When will she heal from this
I love her still
She's got everything you want
You remind me of a cigarette
You burn up slowly and then go out like that
You make it harder for me to breathe
You make my head hurt you make my skin stink
So why don't you leave me alone
or say you were wrong
'Cause I don't wanna hide
I need the tears inside to dry
I want more than just to try and love you
Jekyll and Hyde
Well it's not easy for me to be
Somebody different somebody else but me
But you're the actor the extraordinaire
You make it look like I am the crazy one here
I am willing to forgive
Are you willing to take ownership
Cause I am so willing to forgive
Chorus:
Send angels, send angels, send angels
Show me you love me
Send Angels, send angels, send angels
Show me you love me
He felt alone and aging unkind
He knew there was trouble with this war inside
So to feel young he did what he felt best
Emptiness filling every vein
He must be going insane
To leave an entire world behind
Repeat chorus
Crying the tears he lost as a child
He couldn't even recognize
The frail and injured man that he'd become
Traces of his comprimise
Shattering his desperate tries
Everyone makes a mistake now and then
She's only known heartache and pain
But she's never known pain like this
She stands alone defending her name
When all that she's done is be who she is
Well is it so wrong to be who we are
When all she's done is fail
Cause she's so nice, naive and beautiful
Why does she get taken advantage
Why does she live in a world so cold
She takes advantage of the nice, naive and the beautiful
Cold is the throne of her hardened heart
No one has seen the softest part
Day after night she holds an ache
And won't budge to show this secret place
Well is it so wrong to hang on to hurt
Maybe she could set it free
Cause she's so nice, naive and beautiful
Why did she get taken for granted
Why did she live in a world so cold
He took advantage of the nice, naive and the beautiful
If you've been there you know
If you're still there hang on
We're all dealt our lumps of coal
What you do with it can turn beautiful
Well there's a life outside of this madness
And there's a face behind every scar
But there's a love overflowing with gladness
Get out of that place that's restraining your love
I said get out of that place
We never talked about it
'cause you never even cared
And what you really wanted
I never even had
'cause what may seem right
And what may be wrong
Seems out of sight
In this place we belong
Giving everything
Giving everything for love
I'm finding out that it's not enough
There's nothing left between you and i
I'm finding faith but losing us
Where worlds collide
Together we seemed perfect
A fairy tale for show
And looking on the outside
You'd never even know
That we're just not right
When compromises is wrong
Seems out of sight
In this place we belong
Giving everything
We're just not right
When compromise is wrong
You there with your bag of gold
Thought you had it all together
But your hands are empty
Does it matter now
The pain it caused you cannot measure
But who am I?
Who am I to compare my pain to yours?
Suffering is sweet agony
Who am I to compare my pain to yours?
My suffering must mean nothing
So, hey there, quit imagining
That you have left this life
Your eyes are tired and your feet are worn
No, no one seems to hear your desperate cries
But who am I?
If I believe that's the truth
Then I believe you
If that's the way it should be
Then I believe you
Who am I to compare my pain to yours?
Suffering is sweet agony
Who am I to compare my pain to yours?
My suffering must mean something
Must mean somthing to you, to me
It's true
I didn't call you cuz you would make a fuss,
So I wrote it in a song for you.
You're no longer where I am inside.
We?re too different, me and you.
You can go your own way, and I'll go mine (just walk away).
You can take your chances, and I'll take mine.
It isn?t easy to look you in the face.
Cuz all you speak of, is yourself.
You don't represent me, it makes me cringe inside.
Can't you just forget where I am?
You can go your own way, and I'll go mine (just walk away).
You can take your chances, and I'll take mine (yeah).
Can't find any reason for you and I to stay.
Can't find any reason not to walk away.
(Just walk away)
(Just walk away)
(Just walk away)
(Just walk away)
You can go your own way, and I'll go mine (just walk away).
You can take your chances, and I'll take mine (just walk away).
You can go your own way, and I'll go mine (I'll go mine).
You can take your chances, and I'll take mine (I'll take mine).
(I'll take mine)
(Just walk away)
(Just walk away)...
Did you ever hear of Carrie
Mother of six
Angel to a thousand
You may have never seen her
But her actions spoke much louder
She changed this place
She changed this place
Did you ever meet a man named Joe
Father to eight
Giver to plenty more
He'd give you his very last dollar
When what he needed cost two
He changed this place
Without you knowing his face
We're so selfish
Self seeking
We're so desperate to be number one
So unworthy
Of what's given
What are we doing here
Have you ever played the martyr
Only for the reason of a prize
Can we ever give up trying
To be something in another's eyes
And change this place
We can change this place
We're so selfish
Self seeking
We're so desperate to be number one
So unworthy
Of what's given
What are we doing here
Unnoticed
Unnoticed
Unnoticed
Unnoticed
We're so selfish
Self seeking
We're so desperate to be number one
So unworthy
Of what's given
What are we doing here
We're so selfish
Self seeking
We're so desperate to be number one
So unworthy
Of what's given
Dark is the night, calm is the sea
Soft blows the wind through the evening trees
Tired are the eyes that have seen all your sin
Just let your mind start to dream
Puddles of rain dry overnight
Stars in the sky twinkle their eyes
The curls on your head, your fingers and toes
All need their rest for tomorrow
I will never leave you
I am always here
I will never leave you
I am always near
Dark is the night, calm is the sea
Tired are the eyes that have seen all your sin
I lost it all
You got it back
Believed in me
When I gave up on myself again
A sudden rain
Revealed your face
I knew right then
No matter where I go I'd
Have your hand to hold
We will sink and
We will swim
'Til the ocean turns to sand
We will laugh
We will cry
'Til there's no more breath inside
Cause we will sink
We will swim
I was,
A tender reed
Bent in the wind
And then the storm passed
And you helped me stand upright again
So here we are
Nothing to lose
So take my hand
We'll jump right in
The water's warm
Its time to live
We will sink and
We will swim
'Til the ocean turns to sand
We will laugh
We will cry
'Til there's no more breath inside
Cause we will sink
We will swim
It doesn't rain
For nothing
It will shine
For you
We will sink and
We will swim
Til' the ocean turns to sand
We will laugh
We will cry
Til' there's no more breath inside
Cause we will sink
You got something I like about you
You seem to be a lot like me
I've got ticket to adventure for two
Could be your golden opportunity.
The travel agent, she set up the itinerary,
First class, you can see the moon from a window seat
An agent guided tour of the galaxy,
Tips included, if you want them come with me
Chorus: I wanna know, is there life on Pluto?
Wanna go with me?
We can go in a UFO!
I wanna know, is there life on Pluto?
Wanna go with me?
We can go in a UFO!
I'm bored. Need a little motivation
I'm tired of the same old thing
I've got a feeling of anticipation
Could be our golden opportunity
I've got an urge to go swimming in the Milky Way
Take a trip of fishing in the Neptune sea
Have my picture taken with Peter at the "Pearly Gates"
Smile for the Hubbell, if you want them come with me.
Repeat chorus
In between a blink of an eye, we'll be together
In the sky, we'll be together
I watched you sit alone
I watched you cry your eyes out
Now tell me what you've done
Is it so bad that
I would shut you out
And leave you here alone
Yes, i saw what you did
I was right there with you
I won't let you sink
No, i forgive you
Phobic
Don't be
Grace needs a little more freedom
Phobic
Don't be
Love needs room to breathe
I have watched you grow
And i've stood in your shadow
I've never walked away
I hung the stars and
I hold your heart
So, don't ever be afraid
Yes, i know when you breathe
And i feel when you need
I won't let you sink
No, i forgive you
You can be healed
You can be free
You can know peace
Never be afraid again
Never be afraid
Never be afraid
I can dance here next to everybody
but I want to dance with you
I'm not sophisitcated
I'm not your average girl
I don't like to wear makeup
I like my matted curls
Do I make you feel unstable
Do I put you in a whirl
Cause I do not fit your idea
Of a beautiful girl
yeah, yeah, yeah...
I can jump next to anybody
Let me jump right next to you
Cause I can dance here next to everybody
But I want to dance with you
You're so illumicnted
You're heat could melt the world
You're so wrapped up in plastoc
You nip and tuck and twirl
Do I make you feel uneasy
Do I break your stupid rule
Cause I do not fit your idea
of a beautiful girl
yeah, yeah, yeah...
We're all different
We're all strange
Who really cares
Well naked I showed up here
With nothing to my name
Pure & crazy, blameless
Baby I"m ashamed
And naked I will leave here
With nothing left to say
My pockets full of empty
And now I'm not to blame
I have nothing (I don't want it)
I have nothing (I don't need it)
I have nothing (You can have it)
I have nothing, nothing, nothing
Well catch me when I'm falling
Into strange, elusive state
And kick me when I'm stingy
Take everything away
'Cause yesterday is gone now
And tomorrow isn't sure
Today is all I'm giving
And what I have is yours
'Cause I have nothing (I don't want it)
I have nothing (I don't need it)
I have nothing (You can have it)
I have nothing, nothing, nothing
Oh why do I put so much time
In things I leave behind
That were never mine?
Oh why?
Oh why?
Oh why?
Oh why?
I have nothing (I don't want it)
I have nothing (I don't need it)
I have nothing (You can have it)
