Deep In My Heart

Verse 1
Do you think your friends know
What's going on with us?
I think they'd be shocked if they learned
You were constantly lying to me
They have been misled of the image you created
Our perfect relationship has been a sham ever since the beginning
I just can't deny the fact that we are living a lie

Verse 2
Yes, I think your friends know
What's been going on between us
They are probably stunned to learn
That we have been endlessly fighting
If they are angry at both of us for lying to them
They have every right to be
Since they trusted us completely
I just can't ignore what I'm feeling inside

Verse 3
I just couldn't go on living the way I do
Changes had to be made
The truth had to be told
And now nothing will be the same
Admitting that you don't love me was hard

Chorus 1
Deep in my heart
I truly know that you do not love me
Even though you say you do
Your actions tell another story

Chorus 2
Deep in my heart
I truly know that you do not love me
You always say you do
But you never show it

Chorus 3
Deep in my heart
I truly know that you do not love me
The words you say have no meaning
The things you do say everything

Chorus 4
Deep in my heart
I truly know that you do not love me
You say you can't live without me
I know it's not the truth

All of Me

Verse 1
I've been asking myself a lot of questions lately?
Unfortunately, I don't have all of the answers
You and I have been growing closer since we met
And I fear that we will soon grown apart
You and I come from different worlds
Maybe we were never meant to be

Verse 2
Should I let my brain help me out
Or should I let my heart lead the way
Either way I just might end up with the same problem
There's pressure on me
And I need to get rid of it
I am breaking into a hundred different pieces

Bridge
All of me wants to let you go
All of me wants to make you stay
I am torn
All of these feelings I have for you
Aren't making things easier
I only want to come up with the perfect solution
I was about to let you walk out the door
Until I felt an urge
I had to reconsider my decision

Chorus
All of me wants to hold you
And all of me wants to leave you
All of me wants to tell you how good you make me feel
All of me needs to know that you will always be safe
I am torn between all of my emotions for you

Soon She Will Be Gone

Verse 1
You and her were once close
Like two peas in a pod
You lived for her
And she lived for you in return
You always made her proud
By doing everything that you were told
Any disagreement you had was never opened for discussion

Verse 2
Expectation were set high
But you always performed well
Disappointing her was the furthest things from your mind
You had your hopes and dreams
And she had hers as well
Fear was the thing that kept you from discovering yourself

Bridge
Soon she will no longer be in your life
You can breathe a sigh of relief
You will have the freedom to make your own choices
Today's the rest of your life

Chorus 1
You thought that one of these days
She would come to realize
That you were no longer a child
You have grown into a man

Chorus 2
Soon she will be gone
And her voice is what you won't hear
And that's when yo can begin to live your own life
You make up for what you've missed

Chorus 3
Soon she will be gone
And her voice is what you won't hear
And that's when pressure will ease off of you
You make up for what you've missed

Together We Stand

Verse 1
We are different in many ways
But that does not weaken our bond
It only makes us stronger
We respect each others' individuality
I gave you my word
And I will live up to it
My love for you is always true

Verse 2
Honesty and trust are important
As well as being helpful in any way possible
Some people envy us
But they don't know what we have is attainable
I gave you my word
And you'll be held next to me
My love for you will last forever

Bridge
Together we stand, together we fall
Together we laugh, together we cry
Together we run, together we walk
Together we smile, together we frown
Together we grow, together we share
Together we strive, together we fail

Chorus 1
Together we stand through thick and thin
In good times and bad
Together we stand through triumph and failure
In sickness and health

Chorus 2
Together we stand through thick and thin
In good times and bad
Together we stand through triumph and failure
In sickness and health
Together we stand through harmony and tension
For better or worse
Together we stand throughout the years
We give ourselves to each other

Allow Me

Verse 1
It's hard on the body when it's not being taken care of
While your mind is somewhere else
Then you realize that you've been neglecting yourself
And how you can reverse what's been done
But sometimes going backwards may be more damaging
It is a risk that can be worth taking
But what happens when more problems arise
And you just don't know what you really should do

Verse 2
Do you believe that everything happens for a reason
And nothing is ever random
I could be living proof of that
Because you truly need a friend
I don't want to turn you into a believer
I just want to take your pain away
Sometimes it can be hard to ask someone for help
But it's even harder to keep all your fears inside

Bridge
I am not leaving
So don't you think about pushing me away
Your feelings are similar to a roller-coaster
They're always going up and down

Chorus 1
Allow me to help you out
If you're not strong enough you can lean on me
Allow me to always be there for you
When it hasn't been your day, week, month or year

Chorus 2
Allow me to help you out
Please don't be afraid of my presence
Allow me to always be there for you
When you feel the need to be close to somebody
Allow me to change your life

How Do You Like Me Now?

Verse 1
I woke up at six in the morning
Just to prepare your breakfast
I know you've got a busy ahead
I made some bacon and scrambled eggs
As well as french toast with cream cheese
There's no coffee because the machine won't start

Verse 2
There's a lot of dust on the furniture
And the carpet is still wet
The house smells worse than a landfill
If your mother planned a surprise visit
I'd bet my last dime that she'd surely drop dead
She'd be too disgusted to keep breathing

Bridge
Well maybe this is one of my phases
That I'm putting you through each day
There's no need to look into the mirror
The person who resembles you the most is me

Chorus 1
Your entire breakfast has been in the fridge for a long time
I think the food's expired
I forgot to go grocery shopping
How do you like me now?

Chorus 2
I would say that the cleanest place would be the kitchen
Even though there's ants marching all around
I've become more like you
And I'm getting better everyday
So how do you like me now?

Chorus 3
Would you agree or disagree that I have become
More like you in a lot of ways?
Would you do anything about it?
Would you try to change yourself
Or would you try to change the person I've become?
How do you like me now?
How do you like me now?
How do you like me now?

Gossip Girl

Verse 1
Gossip girl tells many juicy stories
Some so interesting, you hang on every word
She's got the latest scoop
Inside information is her speciality
You can say that she's a pro

Verse 2
You can hide anything you don't want others to know
But she will find a way to tell anyone she knows
Not everything she says is true
Don't take anything at face value
She'll keep on gossiping as long as someone lends an ear

Verse 3
She knows who's dating, who broke up
She knows who's angry with whom, who started rumours
She talks behind everyone's back
No on is immune from her verbal attacks

Bridge
Gossip girl talks about others but herself
No one realizes that
She draws attention to whatever she says
None of it is ever about her

Chorus
Gossip girl knows what's hot, what's not
She can create buzzy about any topic
She's a walking tabloid exposing what she knows
What she thinks and the way she would like things to be

Today

Verse 1
Today is going to be like any other day
I'm going to brush my teeth, take a shower
Grab a bite to eat and ride on the city bus
As I'm travelling, I will stare aimlessly at the sky
And think about this rut that I'm in
Wondering if things will ever change

Verse 2
I'm making a promise to myself today
It'll be to try something new
I'm tired of living every day like the day before
It's very mundane
I'm looking for something more out of life
Something that is real and different
It's all up to me to make tomorrow better than today

Bridge
Today is just like any other day
Today is like yesterday
I'm making a promise to myself today
I'm looking for something more out of life
My future is not entirely up to me
But certainly I'll have an influence on it

Chorus
Today is going to be just like yesterday
As well as last week, last month
And even last year

Weekend

Verse 1
It's a Friday afternoon
And we're anticipating the weekend
it officially begins when the clock strikes 5
As we get closer, people become more excited

Verse 2
Don't think of yesterday
Concentrate on the present
Congratulate yourself for working hard all week
Take a dip in the pool
Or treat yourself to a massage
Spend your time on the dancefloor

Bridge 1
Weekend...laughter...party...fun...music

Bridge 2
Loosen your body
Just take it slow
There's no need to be uptight
We have 55 hours of craziness and bliss
We're going to have a good time
It's the weekend!

Chorus
It's 5 o'clock!
The weekend has arrived
Turn your stereo louder
Honk your horn
Change into something comfortable
Let's celebrate!

Rewind To Yesterday

Verse 1
Some girl I saw every day is gone for good
She's never coming back
Everyone was talking about what her father did to her
He raped her repeatedly

Verse 2
Priests were universally trusted
Now some have been exposed as criminals
Many of them have abused children
They inflicted pain and suffering when they sinned

Verse 3
The economy is not performing well
Many insiders thought the sky was the limit
Business executives have been committing fraud
Some say it's like an infectious disease

Chorus
Rewind to yesterday
Those times were filled with good possibilities
Honest men weren't hard to find
It seemed like we'd live forever
