I Think I Do

Verse 1
You're on my mind every single day and night
And it's getting harder to put you out of sight
I try to put other thoughts inside my head
But I seem to dream about you instead
I don't know if what I feel is real
Now's the time to find answers for my questions

Bridge
I ask myself time and time again
If I have deep feelings for you
I think I do

Verse 2
The thought of love strikes me like the sting of a bee
I don't know if you're interested in someone like me
We might be together or we might be apart
I'm afraid I'll do something wrong and break your heart
Sometimes I feel like we should be much more than friends
But that would mean my secret would come to an end

Verse 3
I don't know if this thing is just a phase
I only want to do everything right
When in love, they say your breath stops in an instant
And suddenly your heart takes flight
There's no one description to tell how you feel
The only thing you can think of is the fact that it's real

Chorus
How should I approach you when we meet?
Now that I have been true to myself
When a thought is not the same
And the feelings run free
My heart is no longer tame
And emotions express me
I ask myself once again
If I have deep feelings for you
I think I do

Tune In Anytime

Verse 1
Stand up straight or you'll fall apart
Clean yourself
Stop being dirty
You can leave this place
Or stay right where you are
The decision lies in your hands
I only hope that you make the right choice
Because you might regret it for the rest of your life

Verse 2
It's never too late to start to care
Most times when you do, you get somewhere
Places that are closer to love
Places that are closer to understanding
I only hope that you consider your options
Because you might regret it for the rest of your life

Chorus
Tune in anytime, anytime at all
Show some interest, any interest at all
Your participation in life is very important
Life can pass you by within the blink of an eye
Unfortunately, you won't know why

How Sweet It Is

Verse 1
How sweet it is to know
That you're right by my side
I can't even imagine my life without you
Don't even want to try
How sweet it is to know
That I can trust and rely on you
I give myself to you without any hesitation

Verse 2
My eyes light up when you enter the room
I concentrate on you
Then I realize how lucky I am to have you
You lift my spirits up when I am down
You comfort me
The support you give
And understanding you have is appreciated

Verse 3
You'll always be a part of my life
Yes, you will
Just knowing that I have found you
That you choose to be with me
Makes me want to be a better person
Makes me want to live forever
I know that nothing and no one can ever come between us

Chorus
How sweet it is to know
That I love you and you love me
With patience, we are caring
We are always sharing
Attitude makes a difference
With love, you and I become whole
With love, you and I become one
We have a strong and lasting bond

Outro
How sweet it is to know
That you're right by my side
How sweet it is to know
That I love you and you love me

Joyful Noise

Verse 1
You're hot, I'm hot
And we want each other badly
We haven't had a little somethin' somethin' in a while
I'm the one you want, you're the one I want
Let's not waste time
Let's get down to business

Verse 2
Ooh, you taste so good
I want more of you
I'm like an addict whose addicted on you
I'm drunk with ecstasy
I'm filled with passion
I love sharing what I have with you
We just cannot resist each other anymore
I want to have you right here and right now
Let's get loud
Let's wake up the neighbourhood
We will hit the right spots and drown in pleasure

Bridge
Ooh, ah! (4x)
Yeah, baby!

Chorus
Joyful noise is what you and I will make
Underneath the covers you and I will shout
On the table you and I will moan
On the floor we will talk dirty

Against The Rules

Verse 1
I know you're interested in me
You always look my way
I don't really know who you are
That will never change someday
I find you very attractive
Your looks and your charm
I just wish I had the courage to talk to you
But that would be against the rules
Oh darn!

Verse 2
We saw each other in the cafeteria
Walked by each other in the halls
Once you waited at your locker
Were you waiting for me at all?
I just wish I had the courage to approach you
But that would be against the rules
Oh darn!

Verse 3
Even though I'm not where you are
I still follow a code of conduct
One benefit of doing so is avoiding consequences
If no such thing existed, I'd see you everyday

Bridge 1
I wasn't suppose to talk to you
Minding my business was the goal
If I had the guts to break the rules
Who knows what would have happened

Bridge 2
I can't talk to you
I'll only get into trouble
You know I will never break the rules
I can't be with you
That would cause controversy
You know I will never go against the rules

Chorus
I should never go against the rules
I should obey the rules

Whatcha Gonna Do With A Cowboy

Verse 1
Tell me whatcha gonna do with a cowboy?
He's way out of your league
He doesn't have time for you
He's busy rompin' and stompin' around the wild west
You have this crazy fantasy that you'd be swept off your feet
By this tall, rugged man
And get lost in his eyes
And live happily forever on a ranch

Verse 2
What if his life is all about ropes, horses and barns?
Would you take a stand
And demand that he always put you first?
Do you have this weird notion that you can change him?
If you do, forget about becoming his faithful wife

Chorus 1
Whatcha gonna do with a cowboy?
Do you know the difference between a man and a toy?
You've got your entire life ahead of you
So follow what's right for you

Chorus 2
Whatcha gonna do with a cowboy?
Do you know the difference between a man and a toy?
You've for your entire life ahead of you
So follow what's right for you
Any dreams that can come true
Don't count on anyone to make you happy

For My Broken Heart

Verse 1
If I could see you again
The choice would be to not see you at all
I was willing to wait for you
But you left me hanging for much too long
I'm not going to put my life on hold
Waiting until the day you would return

Chorus 1
Stay as far away as possible for my broken heart

Verse 2
A healing process is what I must go through
Or I'll always be stuck on you
The pain I felt when you left me
Was something I had never felt before
I cried a lot, shouted and cursed out loud
I couldn't control what I was feeling

Chorus 2
Look as far away as possible for my broken heart

Verse 3
There's only one thing I'll ask of you
That's to not have any contact with me
Don't explain yourself to me
Don't justify any of your actions
Nothing you could ever do or say
Could erase how much you hurt me
If it did, you'd be in my life

Chorus 3
Stay as far away as possible for my broken heart
Look as far away as possible for my broken heart

Stuff You Should Have Said Before

Verse 1
I care you for, I respect you
I honour you, I cherish you
I support you, I live for you
I like you, I love you

Bridge 1
Those are stuff you should have said before
But now it's way too late
I am walking out the door
Don't try to stop me now
You will not win my heart
When you had the chance to, you didn't
You say if you could turn back time you'd change
Quite frankly, I do not care
I'm going on my own way

Verse 2
I congratulate you, I need you
I'm proud of you, I want you
I'm attracted to you, I want to make love to you
I want to be with you, I can't live without you

Bridge 2
Those are stuff you should have said before
But now it's way too late
I won't be with you anymore
Don't try to stop me now
You will not win my heart
When you had the chance, you didn't
You say if you could turn back time you'd change
Quite frankly, I do not care
I'm going on my own way

Chorus
There are many things you should have said before
Like I want you more and more
But you've wasted your time
You will never be mine
I don't know why it was hard
For you to talk to me
I opened myself up to you

Kill Your Television

Verse 1
Kill your television
I promise you won't go to jail
They'll be no cops, lawyers or juries involved
Smash the remote control into pieces
Throw the remains out of your door

Verse 2
Kill your television
I promise you won't be charged with any crime
I assure you, it's not against the law
You have every right to destroy it

Bridge
Cable, satellite and network TV
Are the real enemies, don't you see?
They have concocted a devious plan
To rob you of everything you could have

Chorus 1
All of who you are is not comedy shows
You're not the neurotic, stupid or geeky ones
You're an individual
Don't become brainwashed
Kill your television

Chorus 2
All of who you are is not drama shows
Your life is not a superhero saga
You're an individual
Don't be deceived
Kill your television

Chorus 3
All of who you are is not news magazines
Your life will not be viewed on air
You're an individual
Be familiar with your rights
Kill your television
Stand up for something
Or you'll fall for anything

Do what you have to do
Kill your television
It must be silenced
It's existence is killing you

No Easy Answers

Verse 1
There are no easy answers to give you
About all of life's hardships
Just take them in stride
Hold your head up high
They will not last forever
And if they seem to always occur
Day in and day out
They could be blessings in disguise
Or simply bad luck

Verse 2
You can demand all the answers you want
You will always get a few
You can go to the ends of the earth
Climb the highest mountain
Swim to the depths of the oceans
Read every book that's been published
But more questions will arise
Your curiosity will never be satisfied

Bridge 1
There are no easy answers to give you
On why there is great suffering and pain
On why UFOs are hard to explain
On why we all still exist
On why the world is mysterious
The more knowledge you gain
Hopefully the wiser you'll be
Maybe you will understand and appreciate
That some things are best left unanswered

Bridge 2
You can demand all the answers you want
There's no guarantee all will be fulfilled
If you really want to know everything
Prepare yourself to be shocked, disappointed and surprised

Chorus 1
There are no easy answers to give you
they could be blessings in disguise
Or simply bad luck
You can demand all the answers you want
But more questions will arise
Your curiosity will never be satisfied

After The Fall

Verse 1
If you could predict the future
Would you have chosen a different path?
Does that really matter even after you have fallen?
It's always inevitable
It would have happened anyway
But I guess the sooner, the better so you can change your life

Verse 2
You live, you learn
And mistakes are unavoidable
If they were then everyone would be flawless
But that doesn't mean you don't have to know the rules
You're responsible for everything you do or don't do

Bridge 1
There's so many questions you have to ask yourself
And you don't know where to begin
You don't look scared, but I know you are
Not knowing something can be frightening

Bridge 2
Guilt can consume you like a virus and kill you
But there's a cure that eradicated it from your body
What you need to do is confess
Admit what you have done wrong
That is the first step to take
One day you can break away from the shackles
That have been placed upon you
And then your life will never be the same again
After the fall, you can become whole again

Chorus
After the fall you will want to be redeemed
For all of the sins you have committed
And you hope that you will be forgiven
To be cleansed is what you want to achieve

Shadows And Light

Verse 1
Shadows and light hide and reveal you
You are so beautiful
It's a shame that you don't realize it
You should be proud of who you are
If you aren't then you can change yourself
How about now?
But only do it because you want to
And not because people tell you to

Verse 2
Shadows and light hide and reveal you
You are intelligent
You should be proud of who you are
If you aren't then you can change yourself
How about now?
But only do it because you want to
And not because people tell you to

Verse 3
Like a shadow, you blend in perfectly
When people see you
They don't know if it's really you
Suddenly your appearance becomes clearer
I see you for who you truly are
I am not clouded by your image
But that doesn't mean I know you completely
I'd like to get to know you better
Maybe we can become friends
We'll let the light surround us throughout our lives
It is special because it never fades

Chorus
You are rarely seen by others
But wherever you are, your kindness brings out the best in you
It is felt everywhere you go

Standing Together

Verse 1
We used to be divided
But now we're united
Enemies we once were
Friends we are now
The war we fought only pushed us to hate each other
Knowledge and wisdom made us stand together

Verse 2
We always compete against one another
Winning was the only way to prove we were superior
Losing was disgraceful
It simply meant that you were weak
Seeing the other suffer was the ultimate goal

Bridge 1
There's no longer angry voices
We're not afraid anymore
We lived a life of fear
But now we live in peace

Bridge 2
Pain and suffering were a way of life
After awhile we were used to the bombs and the guns
When we were attacked, we just had to retaliate
Even if it meant we could die

Chorus
We are standing together
There's no insults or violence
We were apart
But now we are one
The bond that we've formed will become stronger
As the years pass us by

Lemonade & Brownies

Verse 1
Lemonade is always sweet just like you
It has no drop of bitterness at all
Brownies are delicious
And I'm sure that you are too
Why don't you try some?
I made them especially for you

Verse 2
Gold and silver are worth a lot of money
And many people wish that they had plenty of it
But what good are they when you need to quench your thirst
Your mouth would be so dry
You wouldn't be able to speak

Bridge
They'll be plenty of sunny days
Days when we have picnics
When you're with me
There will never be a dull moment
I'll make sure of that
And when we're not in the mood for cuisine
We can always do something else
Variety is the spice of life
So I have been told

Chorus 1
At this moment in time
Lemonade and brownies are what I can offer to you
But if you choose to stay
You'll get so much more from me

Chorus 2
At this moment in time
Lemonade and brownies are what I can offer to you
But if you choose to stay
I will fill you up with my love

I Know Where I'm Going!

Verse 1
I have been waiting to cut ties from everyone I know
Only for a short time as I venture out on my own
I'm at an age where I want to do as much as I can
Tomorrow always arrives sooner than we expect

Verse 2
I'm going on a retreat, going on a trip
Going on a journey of self-discovery
Call it what you like
It won't lessen the importance of it
Don't worry about me
I've got road maps
But more importantly, I have your love and support

Bridge 1
My arrival to where I'm going will be memorable
My experiences will be life-changing
I cannot wait to get there
My heart is beating faster in anticipation
This is a cause for a celebration
But I guess I'll have to wait once I've settled down
I've got so much to do
I don't know where to start
I'm so glad to be alive
I couldn't ask for anything more

Bridge 2
My arrival to where I'm going will be memorable
My experiences will be life-changing
I cannot wait to get there

I know what I'm doing
I realize how important this change is

Falling Apart

Verse 1
Since you left, I've been falling apart
My body is in pain as well as my heart
I fell head over heels for you
You told me that you did too
But that wasn't enough for you to stay
You said goodbye to me, then went on your way
I've been trying to get out of bed
I can't because I feel like I'm dead

Verse 2
I try to understand why I'm falling apart
Why I rarely get out of the dark
I'm just not hitting the mark
At first I was in denial
I put myself through a trial
Then I realized you were really gone
They say life goes on, but mine is stuck
For you to be with me, I need luck

Bridge 1
I'm living in a state of confusion
I'm living in a state of anguish

Bridge 2
You're all I think about
The emotions I feel make me want to shout

Chorus
You're all I think about
The emotions I feel make me want to shout
They make me cry
They make me want to hurt myself
I was at a certain point in my life
Where I was happy and had what I needed
Now my life is falling apart

Wrap Your Arms Around Me

Verse 1
Honey, baby, I see you looking at me
The look is your eyes says you want to come over and talk to me
I turn my head away
Then you approach me
You're right in front of me
I feel something between us
But I don't know what it is

Verse 2
I am getting higher
Almost touching the sky
Soon enough I'll be in a state of pure ecstasy
But I want that moment to be now
You'll be with me just like a dream come true
We'll be connected; caressing each other's body
We'll be savouring every second
This feeling is burning deep within me

Chorus
Wrap your arms around me
Never let me go until I say so
I want to be closer to you
I want to share sweet kisses with you; touch you gently
To always be held by you
Kept safe in the palm of your hand
I know you want the same

A Face In The Crowd

A face in the crowd looks like it's deformed
A face in the crowd looks like it underwent surgery
A face in the crowd has too much make-up on
A face in the crowd looks like it hasn't been washed in a week

Look closer and you will see

A face in the crowd looks like it 's malnourished
A face in the crowd looks like it didn't get a good night's rest

Look closer and you will see

A face in the crowd looks very familiar
A face in the crowd has been exposed to the sun for too long
A face in the crowd has no eyebrows at all
A face in the crowd has tears falling down both cheeks

Look closer and you will see

A face in the crowd looks very beautiful
A face in the crowd sends chills right to the bottom of my spine

Look closer and you will see

Drowning In Secrets

Verse 1
As the days pass me by
My grip on reality is weakening
I feel it in my body
This weight that I have bared is heavier than I thought
No one in this world can lift it off of me
I am not sure if I can

Verse 2
I'll have to try harder
For if I don't, I will surely end up at the bottom of the waters
One option is to reveal who I am and what I know
But I'm running out of time
I must make a decision now in order to save myself

Bridge
I'm starting to feel guilty
For thinking I should betray myself
I don't know how long I can live with these secrets
If I reveal them, my life will never be the same again

Chorus

Every one of them settles in my mind
It's becoming harder to forget them
No one can hear my calls for help
I'm sinking deeper and deeper

The Man Who Lies

Verse 1
The man says all men are created equal
But he doesn't believe that
He thinks some are greater and lesser than others
He never means what he says
Anything that comes out of his mouth is false
But millions will accept it as truth

Verse 2
He wants to be just like Big Brother
Watching whatever you do
Invading your privacy
All in the name of the greater good
He's a self-appointed judge
He's always saying other people's actions are immoral
He believes they can become better
If only they conduct themselves in a proper manner

Stay away from him

Many don't know he is a true villain
He is the epitome of evil

I Wanna Be A Soap Star

Verse 1
I wanna be a soap star
I wanna go really far
Have my own dressing room
And be adored by millions of fans
Being Erica Kane's personal assistant
Who arrives in Pine Valley to shake things up
Would definitely rock my world
But first, I gotta get me an agent

Verse 2
I wanna be a soap star
The publicity attached to it is what I crave
Having a six-figure income
Would wash many of my worries away
Being paid by Jack Abbott to spy on his nemesis
And bring down Newman Enterprises
While being part owner of Crimson Lights
Would definitely rock my world

Bridge
I wanna be a soap star
I wanna promote myself on every talk show
I wanna co-host with Ellen or Kelly
And on The View if they get rid of that Survivor chick

Chorus 1
Amnesia, multiple marriages
I would sign up for that in a heartbeat
I wanna be a soap star
Long-lost twin, business tycoon
Or any role I can sink my teeth into

Chorus 2
Corrupt D.A., jilted ex-hubby
I would sign up for that in a heartbeat
Local mobster, nosy reporter
Or any role I can sink my teeth into
I wanna be a soap star

Made In The Dirty South

Verse 1
I like to eat corn dogs and spicy chilli
Telling ghost stories by the camp fire
Hanging out with my g's and all of my girls
Anywhere that we meet
The best place to be on a Saturday morning
Was Big Al's barbershop
Whatever you heard would raise a few eyebrows
But there was certainly no shortage of laughter

Verse 2
I've got the accent, look and personality of a southerner
I've met my share of southern belles
And I can tell you each of them were full of life
And of course there are plenty of long, dusty roads
Summer weather is hot and hazy
We drank a lot of lemonade
Enjoyed neighbours company
I consider the south to be my extended family

Bridge 1
Here's a shout out to all the southerners
What's up!?
Y'all having a good time!?

Bridge 2
I love Dallas, I love Memphis
Jam it up, Louisiana!
Deep down to the bayou
Kentucky, Florida I will always remember you
Birmingham, you are the true underdog
Atlanta, you're hip and sizzling

Chorus
I was made in the dirty south
It will always be a part of me
Until the day that I die
I'm proud to say I belong to the southern community
The way of life down there has shaped who I am

No Logo

Verse 1
We've been exposed to the harsh environments
We've been bruised, battered and wounded
We've been "all you can eat"
We were defenceless, voiceless and hopeless
We were being used
Every time you looked at us you saw dollar signs
Every time you called our names you knew we'd submit
Every time you tasted us you wanted more samples
We were aching to be set free

Verse 2
We weren't told many things that were key to our survival
All the affection and admiration was all for show
Every time you looked at us you saw dollar signs
Every time you called our names you knew we'd submit
Every time you tasted us you wanted more samples
We were aching to be set free

Bridge
Until today, we were the new kids on the block
We were tattooed and pigeon-holed
We were treated like dolls and toys
But all of that has changed

Chorus 1
There's no logo
Get with the program!
It's out of fashion
We won't be advertisements anymore
We're tired of being poster boys
We're ashamed of being billboard girls
We're no longer going to live on blood and gold

I'm Telling You For The Last Time

Verse 1
I'm telling you for the last time to stop acting like a child
If you want anything, you'll cry over it
And if you don't receive it you'll start to stomp your feet
The games you play involve you sucking your thumb
And looking like you're full of innocence

Verse 2
Sometimes people see right through you
And then you pretend you don't know what they're talking about
You're the most annoying person I've ever known
And for that I think you deserve a medal
You might think that it's something to be proud of
But in this case, it's a medal most people don't want to win

Verse 3
Why can't you ever shut the hell up?
I don't want to hear you ranting and raving
I've told you on many occasions to get lost
But it goes into one ear and out the other
I think I'm starting to lose my voice
So I'm telling you for the last time to get away from me

Chorus
I'm telling you for the last time to get out of my face
I'm telling you for the last time to get a life

I'm telling you for the last time (3x)

My Love Is Your Love

Verse 1
I will share with you my heart
And I will share with you my soul
You can ask me for anything
I will never ever say "no"
I will be your sun in the morning
While you'll be my moon in the evening
Both of us know that when we believe
We can always achieve because...

Verse 2
Have you ever found that someone
So special in your life
You would give anything you have
Just to keep them alive
We know that these are the times
To make everything in our power right
With a love like this
There is no reason to fight because...

Verse 3
Angel of mine we are finally here
Throughout the years we've made it
We climbed the highest mountains
And crossed the widest seas
Changes are happening every day
But there is no need to fear
Just remember what we use to say
I want to see a smile upon your face

Verse 4
My love is your love
It has always been that way
Whenever we are apart
We can still communicate
I don't want to close my eyes
Because I don't want to miss a thing
From this moment on
You will always be the only one for me
Now I can hear our hearts beating as one because...

Chorus
My love is your love
And we will rise each other up above
You are always my destiny
And I am your paradise forever
Every time we come together
We are stronger than ever
Just lean on me, my friend
And you'll see the whole truth

Too Early, Too Late

Verse 1
There's a knock at my door in the middle of the night
I awake from bed to answer it
To my surprise, it's you
I can't believe at this hour you'd stop by the visit
You get me up from my peaceful sleep
Now I'm in a bad mood

Verse 2
I made dinner reservations for the both of us
The restaurant's new and clean
Everyone's talking about it
I even dressed up for the occasion
I wanted the evening to be perfect
But things didn't go as planned

Bridge
I will not put my life on hold
Get your act together
Whatever you're doing it, it has to stop
I will not tolerate your behaviour any longer
I don't like it when you're too early or too late

Chorus 1
This time you're too early
Couldn't you have waited?
3 a.m. is never an appropriate time for me
If this was the weekend
I would have been less irritated
Since it isn't, I am going back to sleep

Chorus 2
This time you're late
Why didn't you arrive on time?
We agreed to meet at 7, but you showed up at 8
You didn't even call me to say you would be late
You expected me to keep waiting
This time you're right
Next time you'll be wrong

Stalker

Verse 1
Your dark, piercing eyes are watching me
Always from every corner, every tree
I've never seen them
But I know how they appear by the way I feel
Your soft, striking voice is calling my name
Always from every street, every building
I've never heard it
But I know how it sounds by the way I feel

Verse 2
I can sense you watching me, staring at me
Always from every corner, every tree
I used to feel safe during daylight
But you are making me feel frightened
Every night as darkness approaches I know you're outside
Always from every street, every building
So I hide inside my home
That way I'm protecting myself from you

Bridge
I'm suspicious of everything I see, everything I hear
This is how I feel from every morning, to noon till eve
I know you are out there, somewhere

Chorus
Stalker, why are you stalking me?
You don't know who I am, I don't know you
You're watching my every move
You're making me live my life in fear

Tell Me No Lies

Verse 1
I'm reluctant to start something new between you and I
Because in the past I've been hurt
Misled by people I thought I could trust
I've been lied right to my face
And behind my back
Promise you'll never do that to me

Verse 2
I'm still healing
So please don't add any salt to my wounds
I've been embarrassed when taken for a fool
I'm not about to go through it again
I want to believe in what you say
I need proof that you're the one for me

Bridge
I'm taking a risk if I choose to be with you
My mind isn't made up
I don't want to regret any decision that I make
Can you guarantee that you won't disappoint me?

Chorus
Tell me no lies
I want you to be honest and forthcoming with me
Tell me no lies
Look into my eyes and assure me that what you say is true

Meant To Be

Verse 1
I've never searched for a soulmate
I've never even thought about it
I thought there was no such things
Then came you
There's chemistry between us
There's no doubt about it
I won't bother fighting the moonlight
It's just a waste of time
I knew I fell in love at the very first sight
And that I'd be with you forever

Verse 2
I can't stop thinking of you, babe
Basically, you're unforgettable
When we meet, sparks start to fly
It's truly magical
There's a force pulling us together
There's no doubt about it
I won't bother fighting the moonlight
Because I don't know how
I knew I fell in love at the very first sight
And that you'd be with me forever

Bridge 1
There's chemistry between us
There's no doubt about it
I won't bother fighting the moonlight
Because I don't know how
I knew I fell in love at the very first sight
You and I are meant to be

Bridge 2
You and I are meant to be (3x)

Chorus
I believe you and I are meant to be
We connect instantly when our eyes meet
The bond between us is stronger than you and I
There's just no denying our feelings anymore

A Stranger To Me Now

Verse 1
You always win 1st place
Everyone likes you
You wear better clothing and you're beautiful
You're starting over with a new slate
You do on dates, sometimes you arrive late
The last time I saw you, you were just like me
We were plain and lonely

Verse 2
You were my best friend and I was yours
We went through everything in life together
Now you ignore me as if I'm invisible
Is it done due to peer pressure or your own will
The last time I saw you, you were just like me
We were quiet and sad

Bridge
Once again, I'm all alone and it's not by choice
Where is the person I felt closest to?

Chorus 1
You're a stranger to me now
I don't even know who you are anymore
Are you portraying an image
Or is it really you?
Either way, you have changed
We're no longer the same

Chorus 2
You're a stranger to me now
I don't even know who you are anymore
Are you portraying an image
Or is it really you?
We're no longer the same

Stranded

Verse 1
Can't you see me?
I've tried to get your attention by giving signals
Can you hear me now?
I know that you aren't deaf
So what's going on?
How much longer will it take to get a response?

Verse 2
Days are too warm
And nights are very cold
Sometimes I think I'll never leave
That is what I fear the most
Get me out of this nightmare
I'm begging on my knees

Bridge
I don't know where I am
I'm all alone
Should I turn left
Or should I turn right
Someone guide me home
I need to get back
I'm really scared now
I do not want to wait anymore
I thought someone would be running to my aid
I keep hoping that I will be saved someday

Chorus
I am stranded
I really need help
I'm calling out to anyone for assistance
If you're listening to my voice, please respond
Show me a way out of this place

Runaway Soul

Runaway soul, tell me where do you go
Whenever you leave this place?
Is it sunnier there?
Is it quieter there?
Is it more peaceful wherever you are?
Runaway soul, tell me what do you do
Whenever you are all alone?

Runaway soul, runaway soul

Runaway soul, tell me where do you go
Whenever you leave this place?
Is it sunnier there?
Is it quieter there?
Is it more peaceful wherever you are?
Runaway soul, tell me what do you do
Whenever you are all alone?

Runaway soul, runaway soul
Runaway soul, runaway soul

Runaway soul, runaway soul

Runaway soul, do you travel far away
Or are you always nearby?
You vanish, then reappear
And I'm just wondering why

Runaway soul, runaway soul

Are you real or are you just an illusion?
Am I dreaming or am I awake?
Tell me the truth
That's all I want to know

I Was Interrupted

Verse 1
I walked into the room
As I did almost every day
Expecting to try my best
The man said a lady wanted to speak with me
So I followed him
I turned around and I looked at him
Not knowing it was for the last time

Verse 2
She said "Have a seat"
So I sat down, then the director walked in
I was told I was no longer needed
The director gave no reason why
The other lady never looked at me
Until the whole thing ended

Bridge
I came up with a plan
Now it has to be revised
I clearly didn't expect to get
What I got in the end
I was interrupted

Chorus 1
A friend asked if everything was alright
I responded with "Everything's okay"
I didn't know what was in store for me
I was denied what I deserved
It's like she knew something was wrong
How weird is that?

Chorus 2
A friend asked if everything was alright
I responded with " Everything's okay"
It's like she knew something was wrong
How weird is that?
I didn't know what was in store for me
I was denied what I deserved
It's like she knew something was wrong
How weird is that?

Chorus 3
I was interrupted (2x)

Summerland

Verse 1
We've got a lot of time on our hands
Sometimes we become restless
We're young, so let's do what we can now
Before we can't do it anymore
This cold weather is getting to me
It brings me down as I slip to the ground
You pull me up and the look in your eyes
Says you feel the same way I do
We're longing for warmth
Cold leaves us in pain
And it's time we do something about it
Harsh winds and mountains of snow will not get in our way

Verse 2
Everything about summerland is perfect
The breeze, the sunshine and, of course, the warm weather
Once you're there, you always want to stay forever
That comes as no surprise because the place is wonderful
The days are so long
We can have a picnic by the lake
Or spend our time on the beach building sand castles

Bridge
If we go now, we can get there before sunset
We will watch the sky change colours
And wish upon the stars

Chorus
We're going to summerland
Every day is like the month of June
It's sunny and relaxing

Coming Through

Verse 1
I'm coming through
So give me some room
I don't want anything to get in my way
Interruptions are what I don't like
Moments spent overcoming them
Can be frustrating
I see others sitting, chatting
And watching the world go by
I used to be just like them

Verse 2
I'm coming through
Please move to the side
If you're only going to get in my way
If I stop moving, I'll be wasting time
And I can't afford to do that
It'll take me longer to get to where I'm going
I always have to get there now

Verse 3
I'm coming through
So give me some room
I don't want anything to get in my way
Obstacles are what I don't like
Moments spent preventing them is time consuming
I see others sitting, chatting
And watching the world go by
I don't want to be like them

Chorus
I'm coming through
I can't slow myself down
I am always in a rush
I don't want to be far behind from anything
I feel like I'm the only one who's this way

In Her Shoes

Verse 1
This girl is depressed, her feeling are repressed
No one even knows
She's always alone, no place to go
By now she is use to it
I want to know who she is
I want a first-hand experience

Verse 2
This girl lies to herself, dislikes herself
I'm the only one who knows
She hurts herself, wants to kill herself
I hope I can talk her out of it
I want to discover who she really is
I want to see beyond the image she portrays

Bridge
Where these shoes take me, I really don't know
But that doesn't scare me
I just want to figure out
Why she's different from me
I feel connected to her
And I can't ignore it anymore

Chorus
I will be living in her shoes
Enduring her pain, feeling her sadness
Becoming as fragile as her
I'm not expecting anything to be simple
Whatever she goes through, I'll go through it too

You're the only one that I want to be with
From the morning to the night

The Impossible Child

Verse 1
Will you stop screaming?
Will you ever be mature?
One of these days you will have to grow up

Verse 2
You want attention every waking minute
You're no longer a baby
So stop acting like one

Verse 3
You want everything to always go your way
And when it doesn't, you start to cry
You don't like to listen to other people
But when you talk, you demand respect
When you don't get it, your voice gets louder
And you won't stop until you're satisfied
Why do you have to be so impossible?
Why do you have to be a burden?
Your behaviour is rude, but you don't care
You think that everything is a joke

Verse 4
You want everything to always go your way
And when it doesn't, you start to cry
You don't like to listen to other people
But when you talk, you demand respect
When you don't get it, your voice gets louder
You start to frown and throw toys on the floor
Why do you have to be so impossible?
Why do you have to be a burden?
Be helpful and generous
Be responsible and respectful

Chorus
You can't be like this forever
You're not the only one who is clever
It's better that you know this now than never

Turn The Radio Off

Verse 1
Millions worldwide own radios
Some bought, won and stolen
But the method of acquiring it is unimportant
The quality of what one hears should get more attention
Because frankly, it sucks
This is a call to everyone
Who love music very deeply
If you're passionate about it
Just can't live without it
It's up to us to guarantee radio has a future
And that music continues to live on

Verse 2
On music stations, there's too much talk
On talk radio, there's senseless talk
The popularity aspect of it is at force
The majority seems to always win
While the thoughts and opinions of the minority are ignored

Bridge
Radio isn't fully worthy of high listener-ship
It's proven every time a pathetic song is played
It's proven every time talk radio becomes more mainstream
I'm completely frustrated with the business of it

Chorus
Turn the radio off, it's full of crap
You're wasting your time by listening to it
I don't know why so many turn it on
They should pawn it or smash it to bits
Because the quality is unsatisfactory

Outro
Turn the radio off, it's full of crap
