Leave
Chorus:
You say you’re going to leave, so go ahead and leave
You’re not wanted here anymore
You can’t stay, so just go away
Doesn’t it hurt not to feel wanted
Doesn’t it hurt to be told to go away
But you put yourself in this position
No one else did this but you
So quit blaming it on me and just leave
You walked in here wanting to pick a fight
You walked in here not knowing wrong from right
You go on and on, over and over again
As I sit here wondering if this will ever end
All you care about is you, you’re all that matters
You say you want respect, but respect has to be earned
Let me say, there’s a thing or two that you need to learn
You need to learn how to be a man
You need to learn how to step up to the plate
You need to learn not to say anything
And you need to learn to go away and never to return again
(chorus)
All you do is yell and make some noise
We go around in circles until I lose my voice
This is all pointless, no point in going on
No point to start a war, but the battle’s just begun
So let’s end this, end this now
I want to move on anyhow
I don’t care if you don’t want to
It’s something that has to be done
Do what you’re to say
(chorus)
Yes leave, that’s all you have to do
Just leave

I Thought We Were One
I Thought We Were One
Was I to know
Were we not meant to be
Were we not meant to be friends
Is this how it’s going to end
I’d hate to see this happen
I’d hate for us to fall apart
Like one loose thread unraveling before our eyes
What once was strong now grows weaker
Let’s not let more silence go by
Chorus:
I thought we were one, one strong bond
I thought we’d just begun
To see what was in front of us
All these thoughts rushing through my head
And now everyday I dread
To see you walk away and never to return again
Is this fate or can it be undone
I thought that we were one
How was I to know
The thoughts inside your mind
Every day seemed endless, with so much endless time
So should I let you slip away
Slip between the cracks
Was it something that I did, or some that I lacked
So tell me what you’re thinking, tell me everything
Maybe I can’t handle it, but it’s something I need to hear
Tell me where to end and how I should begin
To understand you now
(chorus)
Yes I thought that we were one
Was I to know
Were we not meant to be
Were we not meant to be friends
Is this how it’s going to end
I’d hate to see this happen
I’d hate for us to fall apart
Like one loose thread unraveling before our eyes
What once was strong now grows weaker
Let’s not let more silence go by
Chorus:
I thought we were one, one strong bond
I thought we’d just begun
To see what was in front of us
All these thoughts rushing through my head
And now everyday I dread
To see you walk away and never to return again
Is this fate or can it be undone
I thought that we were one
How was I to know
The thoughts inside your mind
Every day seemed endless, with so much endless time
So should I let you slip away
Slip between the cracks
Was it something that I did, or some that I lacked
So tell me what you’re thinking, tell me everything
Maybe I can’t handle it, but it’s something I need to hear
Tell me where to end and how I should begin
To understand you now
(chorus)
Yes I thought that we were one
Footsteps
I can hear him coming closer and I dread
I can hear his foot make every step
I swore I heard the voices
You were the one that made the choices
So who do you think you are
Coming round here again
Knowing with you things will always be the same
You were given so many chances, chances
Nothing can last forever, forever
Chorus:
I hear you coming closer
I know what you’re going to say, so don’t you dare
No longer do I feel scared
You can not hurt me
For your weakness is me, don’t you see
You are part of me and I am part of you
It’s time for you to see the truth
It’s time for you to put down the beer
For your footsteps I can hear
You’re time is coming to an end
Why can’t you see that my friend
Do you not fear the reaper
Your scars are growing deeper
All this time you have been the taker
But it is you who will face your maker
You are going down, further and further down
Can you feel yourself start to drown
In a pool of your own lies
Only yourself can you despise
Can you hear your calling
Can’t you see your falling
As I try to fall asleep
I can feel you start to weep
It’s killing me, is it killing you
All that you say and that you do
Why can’t this be over
(chorus)
For your footsteps I can hear
Now it’s time to put down the beer
Do you not fear the reaper
For your scars are growing deeper
All your life you have been the taker
Now it’s time for you to face the Maker
Can you hear me loud and clear
Put down the beer, your footsteps I can hear
Your footsteps I can hear
I can hear his foot make every step
I swore I heard the voices
You were the one that made the choices
So who do you think you are
Coming round here again
Knowing with you things will always be the same
You were given so many chances, chances
Nothing can last forever, forever
Chorus:
I hear you coming closer
I know what you’re going to say, so don’t you dare
No longer do I feel scared
You can not hurt me
For your weakness is me, don’t you see
You are part of me and I am part of you
It’s time for you to see the truth
It’s time for you to put down the beer
For your footsteps I can hear
You’re time is coming to an end
Why can’t you see that my friend
Do you not fear the reaper
Your scars are growing deeper
All this time you have been the taker
But it is you who will face your maker
You are going down, further and further down
Can you feel yourself start to drown
In a pool of your own lies
Only yourself can you despise
Can you hear your calling
Can’t you see your falling
As I try to fall asleep
I can feel you start to weep
It’s killing me, is it killing you
All that you say and that you do
Why can’t this be over
(chorus)
For your footsteps I can hear
Now it’s time to put down the beer
Do you not fear the reaper
For your scars are growing deeper
All your life you have been the taker
Now it’s time for you to face the Maker
Can you hear me loud and clear
Put down the beer, your footsteps I can hear
Your footsteps I can hear
I Give It All To You
Chorus:
I give it all to you
Will you give it all to me
If tomorrow there was nothing left
But us and the open sea
Everything put aside, for just this one moment
We have no reason to run and hide
No one to find us, no one to tell us no
You mean so much, you do
So I give it all to you
Our love can’t be taken for granted
No one can take it away
It’s so deeply rooted, that it’s there to grow each day
I’ve given my whole life to find someone like you
That I gladly take the stand and hope you understand
That this is our one chance
Our one chance to make it right
I won’t let this love go out of sight
(chorus)
Everything is on the line
Everything is in the open
As I bare it all down, I look here for a sign
A sign to guide me to where you are
As I watch a falling star
I wish things could be the way they were
Way back when we were young
I knew it all along
You were there to protect me
(chorus)
I give it all, and expect nothing in return but your love
So I give it all to you
I give it all to you
Will you give it all to me
If tomorrow there was nothing left
But us and the open sea
Everything put aside, for just this one moment
We have no reason to run and hide
No one to find us, no one to tell us no
You mean so much, you do
So I give it all to you
Our love can’t be taken for granted
No one can take it away
It’s so deeply rooted, that it’s there to grow each day
I’ve given my whole life to find someone like you
That I gladly take the stand and hope you understand
That this is our one chance
Our one chance to make it right
I won’t let this love go out of sight
(chorus)
Everything is on the line
Everything is in the open
As I bare it all down, I look here for a sign
A sign to guide me to where you are
As I watch a falling star
I wish things could be the way they were
Way back when we were young
I knew it all along
You were there to protect me
(chorus)
I give it all, and expect nothing in return but your love
So I give it all to you

Who I Am
Sitting here reminiscing
Thinking about all the things I’m missing
The people I grew to love
The lessons I learned every day
How I miss them in every way
They taught me to tolerate
They gave me a chance so I’d understand
And I took that chance, I took that chance
I took that chance without looking back
Loved them for all they lacked
I’d runaway at the end of the day
Just to laugh all my troubles away
Held me up so I wouldn’t fall
Made fun of me ‘cause my hands are small
They loved me for who I am
And I loved them for who they are
And that’s why I am, who I am today
Who I am today
We’d sit in class getting bored
Laugh at things we did before
Point to each other all our flaws
Would laugh at each other in spite of it all
As soon as that bell would ring
We’d rush to the door just to laugh some more
We’d all meet up together
Create memories with each other
Never wanting it to end
Wish I could go back again
And take that chance, take that chance
I took that chance without looking back
Loved them for all they lacked
I’d runaway at the end of the day
Just to laugh all our troubles away
Help me so I wouldn’t fall
Made fun of me ‘cause my hands are small
They loved me for who I am
And I love them for who they are
And that’s why I am who I am today
Who I am today
It’s sad to think how time has passed
But deep down I knew it wouldn’t last
Thinking about all those trips
Everyone I’ll forever miss
So hold on to those memories dear
You never know if you have another year
And you’ll want them back
But you can’t always get them back
So take that chance, take that chance
As soon as you can
I took that chance without looking back
Loved them for all they lacked
I’d runaway at the end of the day
Just to laugh all my troubles away
Help me so I wouldn’t fall
Made fun of me ‘cause my hands are small
They loved me for who I am
And I loved them for who they are
And that’s why I am, who I am today
That’s why I am, who I am today
Today, today
Who I am today
Thinking about all the things I’m missing
The people I grew to love
The lessons I learned every day
How I miss them in every way
They taught me to tolerate
They gave me a chance so I’d understand
And I took that chance, I took that chance
I took that chance without looking back
Loved them for all they lacked
I’d runaway at the end of the day
Just to laugh all my troubles away
Held me up so I wouldn’t fall
Made fun of me ‘cause my hands are small
They loved me for who I am
And I loved them for who they are
And that’s why I am, who I am today
Who I am today
We’d sit in class getting bored
Laugh at things we did before
Point to each other all our flaws
Would laugh at each other in spite of it all
As soon as that bell would ring
We’d rush to the door just to laugh some more
We’d all meet up together
Create memories with each other
Never wanting it to end
Wish I could go back again
And take that chance, take that chance
I took that chance without looking back
Loved them for all they lacked
I’d runaway at the end of the day
Just to laugh all our troubles away
Help me so I wouldn’t fall
Made fun of me ‘cause my hands are small
They loved me for who I am
And I love them for who they are
And that’s why I am who I am today
Who I am today
It’s sad to think how time has passed
But deep down I knew it wouldn’t last
Thinking about all those trips
Everyone I’ll forever miss
So hold on to those memories dear
You never know if you have another year
And you’ll want them back
But you can’t always get them back
So take that chance, take that chance
As soon as you can
I took that chance without looking back
Loved them for all they lacked
I’d runaway at the end of the day
Just to laugh all my troubles away
Help me so I wouldn’t fall
Made fun of me ‘cause my hands are small
They loved me for who I am
And I loved them for who they are
And that’s why I am, who I am today
That’s why I am, who I am today
Today, today
Who I am today
You're Still On My Mind
What do I write, what do I do
Can’t keep you off my mind
Always thinking of you
You’re always there, always around
Stop me before I hit the ground
I shout to the skies above
Just want to drown in a sea of your love
You’re just what I need
When I can’t eat or sleep
So just come back around
And give in to me
You’re on my mind, all of the time
Want to feel your heartbeat next to mine
Your heart is my heart
They both are one
Intertwined like morning glories
Our love is one
Keep me from burning in the fires of pain
Hold me so close to the sound of the rain
We both are one
You taught me to love without holding back
Love me in spite of all that I lacked
When I was ashamed of who I was
You taught me it was ok to love
Don’t be ashamed
Where is the dark, where is the light
Take me back home it’s out of sight
I’m lost to the point no one’s around
First I was up now I’m back down
You’re still on my mind
You’re on my mind, all of the time
Want to feel your heartbeat next to mine
Your heart is my heart
They both are one
Intertwined like morning glories
Our love is one
Keep my from burning in the fires of pain
Hole me close to the sound of the rain
We both are one
You’re on my mind, all of the time
Want to feel your heartbeat next to mine
Your heart is my heart
They both are one
Intertwined like morning glories
Our love is one
Keep me from burning in the fires of pain
Hold me so close to the sound of the rain
We both are one
We both are one
No longer ashamed
Pull me in close let me smell your clothes
I hear the rain
Your love’s come to hit me again, but with no pain
You’re on my mind, my mind
You’ll always be on my mind
Can’t keep you off my mind
Always thinking of you
You’re always there, always around
Stop me before I hit the ground
I shout to the skies above
Just want to drown in a sea of your love
You’re just what I need
When I can’t eat or sleep
So just come back around
And give in to me
You’re on my mind, all of the time
Want to feel your heartbeat next to mine
Your heart is my heart
They both are one
Intertwined like morning glories
Our love is one
Keep me from burning in the fires of pain
Hold me so close to the sound of the rain
We both are one
You taught me to love without holding back
Love me in spite of all that I lacked
When I was ashamed of who I was
You taught me it was ok to love
Don’t be ashamed
Where is the dark, where is the light
Take me back home it’s out of sight
I’m lost to the point no one’s around
First I was up now I’m back down
You’re still on my mind
You’re on my mind, all of the time
Want to feel your heartbeat next to mine
Your heart is my heart
They both are one
Intertwined like morning glories
Our love is one
Keep my from burning in the fires of pain
Hole me close to the sound of the rain
We both are one
You’re on my mind, all of the time
Want to feel your heartbeat next to mine
Your heart is my heart
They both are one
Intertwined like morning glories
Our love is one
Keep me from burning in the fires of pain
Hold me so close to the sound of the rain
We both are one
We both are one
No longer ashamed
Pull me in close let me smell your clothes
I hear the rain
Your love’s come to hit me again, but with no pain
You’re on my mind, my mind
You’ll always be on my mind
Justice and Its Powers
Justice and Its Powers
You feel hurt, you feel betrayed
You have a right, damn what they say
They’ve broken you and spit at you
Some have even said “I hate you”
Those words are so cold
They should have never been told
Just tell them to go, just go
You fought with all your might
Hoping you’d see the light
In all this time in all these hours
Waiting for justice and all its powers
So many tears that were cried
Laying alone at night, why did they have to die
It was much too soon
I miss them too
Where is the light in the midnight sky
Now back to they who broke your heart
You’ve taken care of the rose from the start
You’ve broken bones and your soul
And what do they want, only more
Well they can’t have it
They don’t deserve it and never will
I love you still
They hurt you and neglected you
Even standing in the pouring rain
After all this time
Roses never fade, memories still remain
Always remember the good times
Who knows if tomorrow’s light will shine
It will shine, I’ll make sure it shines
You fought with all your might
Hoping you’d see the light
In all this time in all these hours
Waiting for justice and its powers
So many tears that were cried
Laying alone at night, why did they have to die
It was much too soon
I miss them too
Where is the light in the midnight sky
Where are the diamonds glittering so high
I miss them too, much too soon
Now they’re gone, we can’t get them back
Even though they’re not down here
They’re watching and protecting us more from up there
I could wonder for hours and hours
Still waiting for justice and its powers
Justice and its powers
You feel hurt, you feel betrayed
You have a right, damn what they say
They’ve broken you and spit at you
Some have even said “I hate you”
Those words are so cold
They should have never been told
Just tell them to go, just go
You fought with all your might
Hoping you’d see the light
In all this time in all these hours
Waiting for justice and all its powers
So many tears that were cried
Laying alone at night, why did they have to die
It was much too soon
I miss them too
Where is the light in the midnight sky
Now back to they who broke your heart
You’ve taken care of the rose from the start
You’ve broken bones and your soul
And what do they want, only more
Well they can’t have it
They don’t deserve it and never will
I love you still
They hurt you and neglected you
Even standing in the pouring rain
After all this time
Roses never fade, memories still remain
Always remember the good times
Who knows if tomorrow’s light will shine
It will shine, I’ll make sure it shines
You fought with all your might
Hoping you’d see the light
In all this time in all these hours
Waiting for justice and its powers
So many tears that were cried
Laying alone at night, why did they have to die
It was much too soon
I miss them too
Where is the light in the midnight sky
Where are the diamonds glittering so high
I miss them too, much too soon
Now they’re gone, we can’t get them back
Even though they’re not down here
They’re watching and protecting us more from up there
I could wonder for hours and hours
Still waiting for justice and its powers
Justice and its powers
Anywhere Road Will Do
Anywhere Road Will Do
Well I’ve been waiting for my time
Asking God to blow my mind
With something out of the ordinary
I wait, wait and then I carry, on
I’m trying to do the best I can
Like the nowhere man
Try to find out who I am
What should I do, I look to you
What should I do
I’m in the air, I’m on the ground
I can’t stop from spinning round
I haven’t found what I’m looking for
That’s just because I’m not sure what I’m looking for
Do I go here, or do I go there
I’ll pick a road oh anywhere
Anywhere will do, I’m telling you
Anywhere road will do
I can’t lose sight of who I am
I can’t lose touch of my true friends
‘Cause they are who I am
And I can’t forget them
So I won’t forget the, no I won’t
I chose this road it didn’t work
Hurt my foot but it was just the fork in the road
Just a dusty road
I heard of this man, from a foreign land
With long hair and round glasses
When he spoke, he spoke with passion
He talked of peace, he spoke a love
Imagined no Heaven above
He traveled long he traveled far
He even lay in bed for peace not war
And people thought he was crazy
Well maybe I’m crazy too Mr. Nowhere Man
Still trying to find out who I am
I’m in the sky, I’m on the ground
I can’t stop from spinning round
I haven’t found what I’m looking for
That’s just because I’m not sure what I’m looking for
Do I go here or do I go there
I’ll pick a road oh anywhere
Anywhere will do, I’m telling you
Anywhere road will do
Well I’ve learned a lot, my life’s been changed
Learned something new every day
Hoping someone can relate, to me
I’ve prayed, dreamed a lot
even wrote and cried a lot
But this isn’t the end, only the start
Of something new, I’m telling you
I want to travel and change the world
Do what I can and help young girls
Not to be ashamed of who they are
‘Cause you’re beautiful the way you are
Yes you are
Listen to others learn what you can
Don’t be like me, think of a plan
And it’ll help you not be afraid to dream out loud
I’m in the air, I’m on the ground
I can’t stop from spinning round
I haven’t found what I’m looking for
But that’s just because I’m not sure what I’m looking for
Do I go here or do I go there
I’ll pick a road oh anywhere
Anywhere will do, I’m telling you
Anywhere road will do
Oh anywhere road will do
‘Cause I’m telling you from my point of view
Anywhere road will do
Well I’ve been waiting for my time
Asking God to blow my mind
With something out of the ordinary
I wait, wait and then I carry, on
I’m trying to do the best I can
Like the nowhere man
Try to find out who I am
What should I do, I look to you
What should I do
I’m in the air, I’m on the ground
