So far away from home that I know Night was falling and you werent calling Im not certain that I want it to end this way Shadows dancing in my head Memories or maybe dreams Im not giving up so easily We are better together Our sum is better than its parts You are everything to me And youre something thats worth fighting for Youre all I ever think about Every second of every minute So why dont you ever pick up the phone when I call Feelings linger inside my soul In my dreams like evergreens Im not giving up so easily

Bring Me Down 03:45
lyrics
buy track
Ive had enough take your stuff make it rough and you won’t cause you know where to go so it goes Make it hard so were scarred play your card till were charred don’t let your guard down Ill find my way every day your dismay wont outweigh my peace of mind gotta find Some positive in this mess no distress and I’m done letting you bring me down I wont let you bring me down I may disclose decompose not oppose and you wont cause you know where to go so it goes Deep in thought what you brought so distraught just leave me out of this All I knew in the queue so it grew coming through my peace of mind gotta find A better room than this tomb of doom and gloom and I’m done letting you bring me down I wont let you bring me down Im finding that its me that gives control to these things that bring me down So I’m trying to take it back to go on the attack Wandering instead inside my head choosing who and what to keep I never thought it would be so hard yet so easy Theres always more to the story

Get Out of My Head 03:28
lyrics
buy track
Right now somewhere in the world theres a man who sees himself mirroed in his children and he doesnt like what he sees Right now just across the border theres a man Who’s holding his finger on the button that could end it all Right now just across the street theres a man whose scheming to take everything youve worked so hard for Right now sitting on the mountain theres a man whose coming to terms with all the challenges in front of him Where are you Where are you We wont give control to anybody We wont dwell on these things Get of out of my head Right now sitting in the office theres a man whose trying to get outside and smell the flower Right now sitting at the table is a man whose eating the same thing that hes eaten for 30 years Right now going through his budget theres a man whose trying to figure out if he’ll ever get ahead Right now sitting right in front of you is a man whose trying to be everything to everybody

How I Really Feel 02:38
lyrics
buy track
Ever since day one You got me thinking on overdrive Pushing and pushing on, never give up And Im trying to be everyting you wanted me to be But is it enough, at least I havent given up Hey, is it something I said Cause I just wanted to make you proud Oh, and Im dying to say everything that I really feel Your making me better But is it making me worse I never know when its time to stop and smell the roses I think Im tired but Ill never give up I think Im tired but Ill never give up

Its Really Over 03:45
lyrics
buy track
You seem to think that its really over And I dont know but I dont really care You seem to think that Im much older And I dont know but I dont really care I have to wonder why You tell me to standby Im waiting to forget You never asked me your just combative This house is made of gold But the walls are full of mold I want to let you in But Im sacraficing everything Im hoping to begin So you just tell me when Im trying to let go You always tell me I dont really know Where do we go from here I hope you are sincere I know were not the same But its not too late to take the blame I am walking along doing my thing You are caught up in your own world But if we come together So much better we will be And when were lying on the floor We will remember

Thirteen and Im way to cool for my mother Fifteen and Im going to be driving Sixteen and I think I got everyone outsmarted They will say Im so young Then you say Im so old But I don't know anymore I don't have to believe Watching my life go by Twenty four I think Ill get married Thirty and its time to have a child Forty and i think Im at the top of my career Fifty and I realize I don't know anything They will say Im so young Then you say Im so old But I don't know anymore I don't have to believe Watching my life go by

Panic 02:58
lyrics
buy track
How do you know what you know Is it something that you were told Im not sure I can put it together I can only imagine Panic, Panic, I cant stop this this thing from moving Panic All the lights are going down Panic, Panic, Hold on to your hat this thing is coming down Do we care what we think anymore Are we so self centered That we can only accept what were told Somebody kill the blindfold Is it passed down from generation Is it a closed iteration Im not sure that I want to think anymore But I like it Im not sure that I want to breathe anymore But I think I like it

Sand and A Pillar of Salt 02:57
lyrics
buy track
Walk on the walls up high and were bleeding inside Same as the one that said were always outlined Out on the street saying everything that comes to mind Finding what works to keep everything in time Crash, and Im finding what you’re really made of Sand and a pillar of salt that’s crumbling Where is the innocence now The innocence that they cant handle We cant find it How do we measure Where is the convinction More than naivety and false conviction Wait until the sun comes up and we take it all away Jump and the wind is blowing a hole right through me Soar on the wings of change in formation Seeking to take everything we try to change How do we know that they are not prearranged So hard, and its so hard to link it all together To put the meaning to the words that are on paper Its not enough, Its not enough

Say Something 04:43
lyrics
buy track
Just another winter day like any other You left to build the dream and conquer everthing So many things to do, so little time to get things done First indication came, what were you thinking of Say something, Say something, Anything at all, Ill take anything Your hopes and your dreams went out like a candle in the wind How would you know it was your last day today Would you do anything differently again if there was another chance Hearts beating faster now its pounding in your chest So Say something, Wont you say something, anything at all, Ill take anything The sun came up and set that day, you missed one of them You drove your car but it was only one way Feeling everthing, laying down to breathe on that table Who was the last to see, and did you say anything Say something, wont you say something, anything at all, Ill take anything Now that you’re gone I only have memories And I can only guess what you went through Dont even worry about all of us we’re doing fine Missing you every day, can’t wait to see you again So you can, Say something, Say something, Anything at all, Ill take anything

Sure You Got A Minute 03:22
lyrics
buy track
Every hour seems to drain what little is within And there is a constant strain Always more to do I cant sem to catch a break For all that it is worth Have I made a big mistake Cant figure it out You sure you got a minute I know you said you stay You sure you got a minute It never seems to end up that way Wheres the sign I clearly missed Reflected from within I could not even resist Never big enough All I wanted was someone To share a little bit And Im sitting with myself Cant figure it out And now I dont even care what you say It never mattered anyway You never listen So why waste my breath I dont want to anymore And now I dont even care what you say It never mattered anyway You never listen I guess I got nothing to say

Take Me 03:28
lyrics
buy track
Were all waiting for someone To take us out of the mundane To separate from the ordinary desolation Take me on top of the world I can go anywhere but here Take me to the top of the world Cause where Im at needs to disappear Its easy to get stuck in the dreary To live in the community To wish upon a star to take me far To where you are When Im on top of the world I don't think about it stress about it When Im on top of the world I don't worry about it fret about it Im not afraid

Think or Feel 03:43

And I cant understand How you think the way you do Something tells me that you dont really think You just feel Whats gping on inside your head Whats going on, is there thats missing I cant relate to you How you feel that you think But I think that you feel and you dont think Somethings gotta change or we’ll never come together Somethings gotta give or its the end of us

Tonight 02:56
lyrics
buy track
We watch as the sun slowly fades away The darkness has brought the end of day Atmosphere Ambiance Appetitte Optimism In the moonlight Its more than just the wait Im tired of the decay Im guessing its more of the same When she says He says Tonight I dont think Im into it, Alright Tonight, despite , I dont think Im into it, Goodbye Another day and our hair has turned grey The beautiful scenery seeks to replay Suspence excitement and eagnerness Im forecasting nervousness Cascading, sustaining, Devastating, Berating Liberating, complaining , Campaigning, Constraining Debating, Captivating, Frustrating, Gyrating Permeating, titillating, Placating,…. Exhilirating

Too Much is Not Enough 03:40
lyrics
buy track
Too much is not enough I finally experienced more than I had ever and its so good But now its not enough I want more The more I get the more I want More than I could ever need More than is humanly possible More than I can imagine Take me to it, only if its better than before Cause I want more, give me more Take me to it, only if its better than before Cause I want more, give me more My appetite is insatiable and I dream of more I want the next thing that is better than, Than I have seen, today I cant wait I know theres more More than I could ever need More than is humanly possible More than I can imagine You said more than I wanted to hear all I wanted is not enough You said too much

Waking Up 02:30
lyrics
buy track
He’s out the door but his fingertips are still hanging on, one by one And Im not sure who is keeping them there But they are being pulled back one by one Maybe its him or maybe its me who keeps holding on I dont know, but its time to let go Waking up, you’re not here anymore I cant believe its been 18 years Waking up, you’re not here anymore Im grateful for the time we had So much left to see, to do, but the sands in the hourglass have run out Take what I gave and do the best you can If I can do more I will But my time is up for now I hope I pray that its enough I know it its and you will be ok

What Made You Choose Me 02:56

Im standing in the line and i don't know why you would see me Cause Im just another face of the machine at least thats how it seems What made you chose me why did you stop at my place in line What made you choose me was It just the right place at the right time Blending in so vanilla fade into obscurity Standing out i don't know how you see me in a sea of plenty

When I Took My Watch Off 04:12
lyrics
buy track
Time flies Yesterday's gone tomorrow's not here There's only today Waiting an hour means I haven't learned The meaning of life I wonder if God wears a watch As time flies I want to be the pilot I learned all I need to know when took my watch off (when I took my watch off) I learned all I need to know when took my watch off (my watch off) There's not enough time to be all the nothing I wanted to be There's more to life than increasing its speed Times an illusion I wonder if God wears a watch As time flies I want to be the pilot I learned all I need to know when took my watch off (when I took my watch off) I learned all I need to know when took my watch off (my watch off) Time flies My past is everything I failed to be Time will explain Time takes everything Whether you want it to or not I wonder if God wears a watch As time flies I want to be the pilot I learned all I need to know when took my watch off (when I took my watch off) I learned all I need to know when took my watch off (my watch off)

Who Was Your Father 03:01
lyrics
buy track
Who was your father what did he leave you Did you feel like he would always have your back Would you take the risks that you've taken if you didn't feel a sense of security How much do you owe to your father Was there somebody always behind you Ready and willing to catch you if you fell Would you see so many opportunities if you didn't think that he would be there for you How much do you owe to your father Who do we owe What will we give Are we going to be there for the next generation We don't recognize all the things that our fathers have done for us
