Hi I'm Robbies sister
I guess that's plain to see
When we watch cartoon, cartoons
I'm happy as can bee
I think Samurai Jack's cool
And Dexter's Laboratory
I miss watching Power Puff
I miss watching TV
Well, living on the tour bus ain't that bad
But I feel like I lost all that I had
On Cartoon Network
I miss you so
On Cartoon Network
Where did you go?
Grim and Evil, how I love that little brain
Johnny Bravo, can I smack you once again?
I hope you have learned a lesson here
Treasure what you have
Don't make the mistake I made
The rockstar life is sad
Well, living on the tour bus is, pretty bad
And now I'm sure I know
The meaning of my life
The love within my soul
The reason I wake up each day and it's
Cartoon Network
I miss you so
My Cartoon Network
Where did you go?
I don't want to say goodbye
I can see the fear inside your eyes
It's so hard to walk away
I know that this feels like the end
Life never seems to let you win
But I'll be back someday
Now I'm already missing you
But I'm not even gone
In time we'll be together again
And it won't be long
Now everything goes up and down
And the world keeps spinning round and round
And still you're waiting there
I'll try to make it another night
And dream of you when I close my eyes
'Cause I'll be back someday
Now I'm already missing you
But I'm not even gone
In time we'll be together again
And it won't be
It won't be long
Just hold it in
Don't let it go
You'll always live
Inside my soul
Now I'm already missing you
But I'm not even gone
In time we'll be together again
And it won't be
It won't be long
Already missing you
In time we'll be together again
(In time we'll be together again)
And it won't be long
(And it won't be long)
Halfway down the stairs is a stair where I sit
There isn't any other stair quite like it
I'm not at the bottom, I'm not at the top
So this is the stair where I always stop
Halfway up the stairs isn't up and isn't down
It isn't in the nursery, it isn't in the town
And all sorts of funny thoughts run round my head
It isn't really anywhere, it's somewhere else instead
Halfway down the stairs is a stair where I sit
There isn't any other stair quite like it
I'm not at the bottom, I'm not at the top

I sense there's something in the wind.
That feels like tragedy's at hand.
And though I'd like to stand by him,
Can't shake this feeling that I have.
The worst is just around the bend,
And does he notice, my feelings for him?
And will he see, how much he means to me?
I think it's not to be.
What will become of my dear friend?
Where will his actions lead us then?
Although I'd like to join the crowd,
And their enthusiastic cloud.
Try as I may doesn't last.
And will we ever,
End up together?
(Ohh....)
And will we ever, end up together?
No I think not.
It's never to become.
(David Hodges):
Seems so far
that I have gone down this road
Only to find that it ends.
But looking back
There is one thing that I know
I can't make it all alone again.
Cause I'm too weak to stand on my own
But all I need is you.
(Chorus):
So lead me
Guide me
Hold me
Hide me in love
With all that you are
and all that you do.
Hear me
Take me
Mold me
Break me oh God
Just fill all of me
As I fall into you.
Just catch me as I fall
But all this time
I have felt so alone
Losing myself in my despair
With loving arms
You were waiting for me to let go
With every step
You were there.
Cause I'm too weak to stand on my own
But all I need is you
(Chorus):
So lead me
Guide me
Hold me
Hide me in love
With all that you are
and all that you do
Hear me
Take me
Mold me
Break me oh God
Just fill all of me
(Chorus):
Oh my child
How I have longed
for you to come home
Where you belong
All of your life if you could just see
All of my joy when you are here with me
Oh my child
[Together: Amy Lee (David Hodges)]
Lead me (How I have longed)
Guide me (For you to come home)
Hold me (To where you belong)
Hide me in love (All of your life)
With all that you are (If you could just see all of my joy)
And all that you do (When you are here with me)
(Amy Lee)
Hear me
Take me
Mold me
Break me oh God
Just fill all of me
(feat. Seether)
I wanted you to know, that I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high, and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph, and I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high, and steal your pain.
'Coz I'm broken, when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away.
You're gone away, you don't feel me here anymore.
The worst is over now, and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high, and steal my pain away
There's so much left to learn, and no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high, and steal your pain.
'Coz Im broken, when I'm open
And I don't feel like I'm strong enough
'Coz I'm broken, when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away.
'Coz I'm broken, when I'm open
And I don't feel like I'm strong enough
'Coz I'm broken, when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away.
'Coz I'm broken, when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away.
'Coz I'm broken, when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone.
This is the air I breathe
This is the air I breathe
Your holy presence living in me
This is my daily bread
This is my daily bread
Your very word spoken to me
And I, I'm desperate for you
And I, I'm lost without you
This is the air I breathe
This is the air I breathe
Your holy presence living in me
This is my daily bread
This is my daily bread
Your very word spoken to me
And I, I'm desperate for you (I'm desperate for you)
And I, I'm lost without you (Lost without you)
And I, I'm desperate for you (I'm desperate for you)
And I, I'm lost without you (I'm lost without you)
(I'm lost without you, lost without you)
This is the air I breathe
This is the air I breathe
Your holy presence living in me
And I, I'm desperate for you (I'm desperate for you)
And I, I'm lost without you (I'm lost without you)
And I, I'm desperate for you (I'm desperate for you)
And I, I'm lost without you (I'm lost without you)
(I'm lost without you, lost without you)
For I am convinced that neither death nor life,
nor angels nor principalities nor things present nor things to come,
nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing,
I like big butts and I cannot lie,
You other brothers can't deny,
That when a girl walks in with a itty bitty waist and
A round thing in yo face, you get sprung. ...
I wanna pull up front cuz I notice that butt was stuffed.
deep in these jeans she's wearin',
I'm hooked and I cant stop starin'.
Oh baaaaaby, I wanna get wit ya,
And take yo' picture,
