IT CAME AS SOME SURPRISE
SHOT DOWN BOTH OUR EYES
FELT COMPELLED TO STAY
BUT WE SHOULD HAVE TURNED AWAY
AND THE WALLS, CAME CRASHING DOWN.
RAIN CAME THE NEXT DAY
TRIED TO WASH THOSE SINS AWAY
BUT NOTHING BLISTERED BY
YOU COULD HEAR THOSE YOUNG MEN CRY
AND MORE WALLS, CAME CRASHING DOWN.
CHORUS
WHAT CAME FLASHING FROM THE SKY - Y - Y
WHAT JUST HAPPENED BEFORE OUR EYE-EYE-EYES
NOW NOTHING IS THE SAME
EVERYTHING JUST CHANGED TODAY
WE CAN RUN, BUT WE CANT HIDE.
THE AFTERMATH IS HERE
ITS RAPIDLY SPREADING FEAR
AND WE DONT TRUST OUR OWN FRIENDS
COULD THIS BE REVELATIONS END
AND MORE WALLS, COME CRASHING DOWN.
****
WE WILL STAND & FACE TODAY
WE WILL RAISE OUR HEARTS TO PRAY
WE WILL WAVE OUR FLAGS WITH PRIDE
WE WILL NEVER HAVE TO HIDE - AWAY

Pack of Lies
03:48
|
|||
You left me waiting once again with a bomb in my hand
And I shouldn't have taken this kind of treatment from a selfish man like you.
Shouldn't be surprised, thought I took my time.
Guess I opened my heart but closed my eyes.
Coz what you say ain't who you are.
The phone don't ring when you say you'll call
When I get through, yeah, you're gonna have to stop denying....
Those Pack of Lies.
You acted crazy like a man with a gun to his head and I
I wasn't shaken, until you led another woman to your bed.
Caught you in the dark. You better run for cover.
Coz you broke into my heart.
Coz what you say ain't who you are.
The phone don't ring when you say you'll call
When I get through, yeah, you're gonna have to stop denying....

Road To Recovery
03:11
|
|||
While on this Road to Recovery I stopped for one last look.
Coz when I think of you
I start to shake I can't forget the feelings in my heart.
Tomorrow it'll be allright, it'll be allright.
All my life I've been waiting for someone just like you
And all this time, that someone's been you.
I'm gonna surround my surroundings to remember when the feelings died.
Coz when I think of you.
It's never to late to get things right, we got our history.
Tomorrow it'll be allright, it'll be allright.
All my life I've been waiting for someone just like you
And all this time, that someone's been you.
All my life, I've been waiting, I've been waiting,
All this time, for someone like you.
Waiting waiting waiting waiting
Waiting waiting waiting waiting
Waiting waiting waiting waiting
For someone like you.
I realize I should swallow my pride and get a message to you.
Tomorrow it'll be allright, it'll be allright.
All my life I've been waiting for someone just like you
And all this time, that someone's been you.
All my life, I've been waiting, I've been waiting,
All this time, for someone like you.

Every Little Raindrop
03:23
|
|||
He talked about the baby blue sky
And how it matched my baby blue eyes
Said he'd never let anything stand in our way.
Said he wanted to see the world
Promised I would be his only girl
But I could see something else written on his face.
chorus Look out here comes the storm
I feel EVERY LITTLE RAINDROP
Slow down my life's in a whirl
I feel EVERY LITTLE RAINDROP falling down...
He used to bring me roses so red
Used to carry me to our bed
Never thought this moment would pass us by.
He wrote and sang to me beautiful songs
They were for someone else all along
I never had the courage to ask him why.... why?
Look out here comes the storm
I feel EVERY LITTLE RAINDROP
Slow down my life's in a whirl
I feel EVERY LITTLE RAINDROP falling down on me.
bridge they're falling, falling down on me...
Still searching for my baby blue sky
Since he left my heart and said goodbye
But in the light, somthing's come over me..... I'm free!!!
Look out here comes the storm
I feel EVERY LITTLE RAINDROP
Slow down my life's in a whirl
I feel EVERY LITTLE RAINDROP falling down on me.

Hombre Mio
03:27
|
|||
No me Peges por que te amo
Porque me pegas?
No me Peges por que te amo
Porque me pegas?
I was only seventeen, you were my saviour indeed
You took me in your strong arms
You captured me, why did you change?
chorus
Wisdom has not come to you
You pushed my face to the floor
You're caresses are now sharp and cold
What other gifts are in store?
Hombre mio estoy yorando
Hombre mio estoy triste
Hombre mio estoy sola
Hombre mio......
Now I.... I feel free
Did you ever love me?
Death only comes once in your life
Why did you bring it to me?
chorus No me Peges por que te amo
Porque me pegas?
No me Peges por que te amo
Porque me pegas?

There You Go
03:43
|
|||
While the world was turning you stood still...
Seasons came and went (and people too) watching the wheel
Feeling like a statue, you took almost all you had
To break free from yourself and move on again.
Gold and silver rain falling on a muddy road
Ain't got nothin' to lose, but something woke up in your soul
Pulled your bones over the line where you just fell behind
To be catching up to the vision in your mind.
THERE YOU GO
You always did know
THERE YOU GO, told you so.
THERE YOU GO
You always did know
THERE YOU GO, told you so,
THERE YOU GO....
Putting back the pieces that you lost and found in your dream
As you learn to feel and see everything and anything
Then when you find, that deep, deep inside
The question asked is the answer sometime.
chorus
bridge 90 miles per hour yeah,
Got your hammer down and your pedal to the metal
Keep your nerve around Deadman's Curve
You're racing alone and you're miles from home
Through the valleys and over the hills
Through the maze of the gridlock speed zones
Smokin' just like a locomotive
Drivin' like Casey Jones.

Heaven's Gate
04:26
|
|||
You always thought that everything I said was something
Was I a joke instead?
You carried salt for all the wounds that people opened
But I got inside your head!
chorus Walk in the sun and I will never be forgotten
Light up the path of my days
Follow the one who'll lead you from the depths of darkness
Right to the front of HEAVEN'S GATE.
You'll never be healed unless you heed the warning
No one will understand
My God is real, he's on the rocketship that's made it's landing
C'mon let's all join hands...
chorus Walk in the sun and I will never be forgotten
Light up the path of my days
Follow the one who'll lead you from the depths of darkness
Right to the front of HEAVEN'S GATE
musical bridge
My brothers we are off to build a new tomorrow
We're packed and ready to go
And we will shed our containers that are stamped with sorrow
Then everyone will know....
chorus Walk in the sun and I will never be forgotten
Light up the path of my days
Follow the one who'll lead you from the depths of darkness
Right to the front of HEAVEN'S GATE.

Taken
04:57
|
|||
Woke up this morning screaming out your name
So glad that I was all alone
Hoping no one will ever see this change
Coz I’m no longer on my own
Coz I still have your pictures hanging on my heart
Never thought to tear them down
And I swear I’d have your name tatooed across my breast,
If I wasn’t TAKEN.
I’ve been dreaming ‘bout you every night
It just throws off my waking hours
Can’t chase you from my head even in the light,
This secret dance of ours.
Coz I still have your pictures hanging on my heart
Never thought to tear them down
And I swear I’d have your name tatooed across my breast,
If I wasn’t TAKEN.
Sometimes I wonder where we would be
If I hadn’t run away from you
A house and children, maybe 1, 2, 3?
Those dreams will never come true.
Coz I still have your pictures hanging on my heart
Never thought to tear them down
And I swear I’d have your name tatooed across my breast,
If I wasn’t TAKEN.
If I weren’t already TAKEN
You would be my King.

River of Life
04:46
|
|||
In the middle of the night, I heard a baby scream
And when I turned to the sound1 I found it was only me
Now it's time to stand alone,
Say goodbye to the child in me.
And I'm riding down this river
Riding down the River of Life.
There's a mystery at every turn that keeps me alive
And even though the water's cold...
I keep riding, riding, riding (to the next stop)
Riding, riding, ridinq down the River of Life
Riding, riding, riding (to the next stop)
Riding down the River of Life.
As night gives into day, I push all my fears away
I stir them into the water,
And they fade to a drop in the grey.
And my childhood memories,
Remind me to keep my wits about me.
And I'm riding down this river,
Riding down the River of Life.
There's a mystery at every turn that keeps me alive.
And even though the water's cold.....
I keep riding, riding, riding (to the next stop)
Riding riding, riding down the River of Life.
Riding, riding, riding (to the next stop)
Riding down the River of Life.
Love seems to come and go
Luck seems to ebb and flow
changes surround my every turn.
And we can't hold on to something that's not our own
One by one we search for home
All joined yet all alone.
And I keep riding, riding, riding (to the next stop)
Riding1 riding, riding down the River of Life
Riding, riding, riding { to the next stop)
Riding down the River of Life.

Silence Grows
04:18
|
|||
If my walls could talk
Oh what stories they would tell
I've sung the praises of so many men they said
Marry me, each 10 yeas gone, a whole child's life with every one.
Chorus
The sunlight bounces off the wall.
My story never will be told
Silence lives, Silence grows.
Outside my walls they envy me
The mask I wear it hides the face that's really me
Easy come and easy go
They've touched my body but not my soul.
Chorus
The sunlight bounces off the wall.
My story never will be told
The sunlight bounces off the wall.
My story never will be told
Silence lives, Silence grows.
Footsteps haunt the halls the room is shaking
From the sound, of my words hang as silence lives
Silence grows.
The phone it hasn't rung all day
And I'm so tired and going to bed only to stay awake.
And read about the day gone by
The walls hold me inside
Chorus
The sunlight bounces off the wall.
My story never will be told
The sunlight bounces off the wall.
My story never will be told
Silence lives
Silence grows.
Silence lives
Silence grows.

Jailed
03:47
|

Yesterday's just a memory
Full of love and simplicity
You meant the world to me
I took a dangerous road
You begged me not to go
I'm spinning out of control
No time to find my heart
That time's torn us apart
I just have to laugh
Chorus
I get lonely for you
I get lonely for you
This is only for you
Here lies my heart
Temptation took its toll
I wish I could go back home
Instead I count the stars
Some things you can never mend
All things have to come to an end
My life has been unplanned
I take the bitter with the sweet
and stand on my own two feet
(still would like to hold your hand)
Chorus
I get lonely for you
I get lonely for you
This is only for you
Here lies my heart
Bridge
I hold my fate in my hands
I'm a prisoner searching for freedom
I've jailed myself
I've jailed my heart
Unlock my faith coz I'm torn apart
And I'm lonely
Chorus
I get lonely for you
I get lonely for you
This is only for you
Here lies my heart

Gray
03:32
|

She sleeps in every morning 'til noon.
But somehow she seems to watch my every move.
She can be sure I'll always be there
Giving her all my love, but she don't care.
She's no ordinary, (quite contrary) girl....
But there's something thats got her down.
chorus:
She don't like me anymore! She don't like me anymore!
She does not like me anymore,
And it's breaking my heart!
She comes home every night really late
But I've learned the hard way don't stay up and wait!
Soon I will feel her right by my side,
the warmth of her body right next to mine.
She's no ordinary, (quite contrary) girl....
But there's something thats got her down.
chorus:
She don't like me anymore! She don't like me anymore!
She does not like me anymore,
And it's breaking my heart!
She just sits alone and stares outside the window,
What's out there?
I just can't seem to make her see that for her I would
do anything!
chorus:
She don't like me anymore! She don't like me anymore!
She does not like me anymore,
And it's breaking my heart!

Roses
02:43
|

My Mother's hands were twisted all of her life
She worked very hard to bring us up right.
My Father left so long ago
He's just another man that I'll never know.
I was lost, I was hurt
I was down, I was wounded.
My journey's ended in your garden of love
And the seeds of hope well, they're not gone
All my Mother's fears fly away
And I'm sheltered in your arms everyday.
I was lost, I was hurt
I was down, I was wounded.
I was cold you brought me roses
I was caged you brought me roses
I was wounded and you healed me with roses.
I was lost, I was hurt
I was down, I was wounded.
I was lost, I was hurt
I was down, I was wounded.

Everybody's Changing
03:04
|

EVERYBODY'S CHANGING
Everybody's getting out of here
I'm still jingle-janging
Focused hard on everything I hold dear.
You're lost and you've got to escape from this madman's domain
Tomorrow will see your whole life in a better place
EVERYBODY'S CHANGING, I stay the same.
Everybody's crying
Picking at the scab that they've condemned
They just got tired of trying
To get something that was never meant for them.
You can't face your failures you can't just run away
Will tomorrow see your whole life in a better place?
EVERYBODY'S CHANGING, I stay the same.
EVERYBODY'S CHANGING, I stay the same.
bridge: You don't know, what a mistake you are making....
Please don't go - but you wont listen to
Any word I say.....
EVERYBODY'S CHANGING, I stay the same.
EVERYBODY'S CHANGING, I stay the same.
EVERYBODY'S CHANGING, I stay the same.
EVERYBODY'S CHANGING, I stay the same.
(Will you rip out the page that my name is on
Will it burn in the fire will you remember me?
Will my scent still stay on your pillowcase
Will you remember me, will you remember?)
EVERYBODY'S CHANGING, I stay the same.
EVERYBODY'S CHANGING, I stay the same.
EVERYBODY'S CHANGING, I stay the same.
EVERYBODY'S CHANGING, I stay the same.

Just Another Day
02:47
|
|||
It's JUST ANOTHER DAY
In the new-found life I've just thrown away
And I can't take back my words
There's a knife through every door.
Can't you sympathize?
A life that's served with champagne and lies
Well, it's too damn good for you
Doesn't matter how much you chew
chorus You can stay - You've got a lot to prove
I wont stand in your way, I know the truth.
I don't care for much
(Except of course the "Midas Touch")
All the gold's turned back to gray
Ever since you got your way
chorus You can stay - You've got alot to prove
I wont stand in your way, I know the truth
bridge Time will tell the way the load has lifted off your feet
And all your trends will come and go and you'll have
Missed the beat...
Honesty is kind
(But killers often have that in mind)
You can take this notch from me
Coz I'll fight back like a new Ali...
chorus You can stay - You've got alot to prove
I wont stand in your way, coz I know the truth.

Change The Way I Pray
04:11
|
|||
I paved the way, but not for what's to come
Never told a lie, but now I stand in darkness.
Always did what was right, never stepped on anybody's toes
And now I face the real test
You get just what you pay for And not a penny more
And now I'm gonna change
CHANGE THE WAY I PRAY
There're powerful men with their empty-headed women
Who cheat and steal and take what's meant for you and me.
They don't give a damn about a loyal man
They'll choose someone who'll do the job for free.
There's so much more to ask for
But only money opens the door.
And now I'm gonna change
CHANGE THE WAY I PRAY
bridge When I finally lay down and leave my heart in the ground
Only my love has survived,
The climate of change, and I'll face that change
Coz I've changed.
Well, Hey God! I'm talking to you
I'm sick and tired of what people do
They stole my car, wont pay their rent
Just buy drugs and end up dead.
Hey God, I still love you
I still wanna do what's right by you
But I'm so tired and I get mad
Sometimes stick my head in the sand
I gotta say what I'm gonna do...
CHANGE THE WAY I PRAY
CHANGE THE WAY I PRAY
CHANGE THE WAY I PRAY
CHANGE THE WAY I PRAY...

Fragile Girl
03:31
|
|||
Another drag on your cigarette
Someone just hit your car
And now you're more in debt.
The guy you just met
Well he hasn't called you yet
Were his eyes blue or brown?
I'm sick and tired of you, you're just too fucking fragile
Stop crying
Are you living in this world?
You're such a fragile girl
Stop crying........
So you call your best friend again and again and again
To ask her advice but you know she's sleeping with him.
Blame your tears on the smog,
Bag of cookies make you feel like a hog
And you talk to all of your friends but they don't wanna walk in your shoes,
No, No....
I'm sick and tired of you, you're just too fucking fragile
Stop crying
Are you living in this world?
You're such a fragile girl
Stop crying........
She said
"I've had no sex, got no money,
got a bad haircut, and that's not funny.
I hate all my friends, still love my dog
I haven't gone to sleep coz I still haven't washed my sheets."
And I said:
I'm sick and tired of you, you're just too fucking fragile
Stop crying
Are you living in this world?
You're such a fragile girl
Stop crying........
