We can't breathe We can't get comfortable We're losing our grip On a life livable We keep walking cos it’s the only way To be free No one’s saying that this is the way It’s supposed to be We seek solutions, for our own peace of mind We need answers, it's all we try to find And if you're so against it Then you can stay behind We've been praying For the end of these days We're protesting In hopes of brand new ways It’s up to us to exercise our rights Fight our own fights It’s up to us to finally set our sites To reach new heights We seek solutions, for our own peace of mind We need answers, it's all we try to find And if you're so against it Then you can stay behind We keep walking We seek solutions We need answers We've been praying
2.
Will you save me from myself You’re the one who truly sees me I feel safest within your embrace You’re my beacon, guiding light and strength Your loving arms around me Give me the courage I need To stand up and face the world The time has come to be part of something That is greater than myself Sometimes it’s all too much For one heart to endure it all Then your presence fortifies my soul I’m empowered, uplifted by your light Your loving arms around me Give me the courage I need To stand up and face the world The time has come to be part of something That is greater than myself You have given me a gift And for once I am not afraid I feel ready to face my destiny A new journey full of discovery
3.
Distance can be cruel (Only not for fools) And we are under this tyranny Why can't we secede And succumb to the need For each other's company I am here And you are there And it will be that way for a while Until then I will pray For the day that I will see your smile Again You're so far away Here I want you to stay Then you'll get caught in this web we weave This entanglement Could lead to developments That'll never make you want to leave I am here And you are there And it will be that way for a while Until then I will pray For the day that I will see your smile Again
4.
I try to sleep but I can't Don't even want to be awake My slumber's thwarted by thoughts They’re just too painful to take I find myself immersed in worry I've been drowning in gloom And I keep fighting the current That heads toward imminent doom Even in these brighter times I always fear the worst When the rays of hope shine through The clouds of doubt will burst My outlook is my nemesis I know it's all in my head I'm in a mental collapse Caused by all this horror and dread This has all turned into a hurricane Now i hope it takes me away 'cos i can't stand it anymore i need a brand new day Even in these brighter times I always fear the worst When the rays of hope shine through The clouds of doubt will burst It's coming in Blanket of gray No end in sight A most depressing day Can't feel the warmth Can't see the sun When it starts pouring Then I am done Even in these brighter times I always fear the worst When the rays of hope shine through The clouds of doubt will burst
5.
Listen here I worry about you when you say That you've had enough You've been through hell You've dealt with more than you could bear I know you've had it rough I'll take away the pain you feel Your suffering I will conceal I'll take away the pain you feel Your wounds of torment I will heal I'll take away the pain you feel The scars of anguish soon will peel I'll take away the pain you feel Cos all my love for you is real Don't give up I know the best is yet to come I can see the light My only hope Is that I get you to see it too It will be alright I'll take away the pain you feel Your suffering I will conceal I'll take away the pain you feel Your wounds of torment I will heal I'll take away the pain you feel The scars of anguish soon will peel I'll take away the pain you feel Cos all my love for you is real All my love is real
6.
It's no surprise that we're two souls, one heart But I realize that we need time apart Cos we've been each other's shadows Without any secrets to share I need you to spread your wings and fly But I know I'll regret it as soon as you go Further than far is what you are when you're away from me Just like the stars, you're further than far Why can't you stay with me You know that absence just makes the heart grow fonder But I'm so scared it'll make your mind go wander Will it open up your eyes When the world outside beckons to you? I don't want to make this mistake I can't take that chance ever again Further than far is what you are when you're away from me Just like the stars, you're further than far Why can't you stay with me Further than far is what you are when you're away from me Just like the stars, you're further than far Please don't betray me
7.
I'm not much for hyperbole But you mean the world to me So I think it's apropos That to let my feelings show I take it to the highest degree I love you times a hundred thousand million I love you times a hundred thousand million I do You never wavered in your care and love To call you a saint just isn't enough To be in your presence was blessed You really really were the best And now you're resting in heaven above I love you times a hundred thousand million I love you times a hundred thousand million I love you times a hundred thousand million I love you times a hundred thousand million I do

This smile spread wide It shows the rapture That I've got going inside me It's just my natural emotion These tears I shed I'm not just crying wolf I'm enveloped in sorrow It's just my natural emotion This rage within me Makes me want to scream I just can't help it It's just my natural emotion

You're on a slippery road now You used up almost every chance Never had the willpower A victim of circumstance This life has driven you to this point This life is not your own You can say you're sorry As the tears well in your eyes But it don't mean nothing When you go back to your prize This time you could avoid the consequence This time, but not for long Give into temptation And you'll go right back down to stay Give into something better And you'll see a brighter day I can see your pain now And i can feel it in my soul You are not to blame It's the disease that took control These eyes can see that it's not your fault Now i have forgiven you Give into temptation And you'll go right back down to stay Give into something better And you'll see a brighter day
