1. Forever More
Why say anything if it doesn't mean nothing at all
If everything you do there's something in it for you or you won't do it at all
Stay away
'cause I'm all about givin' a helping hand
Talk about love every chance I can
Please don't misunderstand me
'cause I'm all about givin' the dog a bone
Come on everybody let's get it on
Come on let's get it on
All that I believe is what I'm fighting for
And I will always be this way forever more
If I stand alone I'll be here like a stone
Forever, forever, forever
Yes I know exactly how the story goes
It was all meant to be
But there's just too much crazy shit going on
What is wrong with me
You can call me anything you want cause I don't wanna be
Just another one repeating history
Please don't misunderstand me
All I do is listen to my heart as it talks to me
(doing as I wish, ah just let it bleed, let it bleed)???
All that I believe is what I'm fighting for
And I will always be this way forever more
If I stand alone I'll be here like a stone
Forever, forever, forever
If I only I could change, it's too late
Or maybe rearrange my mind, it's too late
If only I could cha-a-a-a-a-a-a-ange
All that I believe is what I'm fighting for
And I will always be this way forever more
If I stand alone I'll be here like a stone
Forever, forever, forever
'cause all that I believe is what I'm fighting for
And I will always be this way forever more
If I stand alone I'll be here like a stone
Forever, forever, forever more
2. I Wanna Live
What I want.....
Is what I need
Is everything that I'm 'suppose to be
Have my hopes....
I Got my dreams
I have to fight for what is right for me
Everything!
That I expect... I take in and I have no regrets
Life's too short
There's not rain check
Just one shot at it is all ya' get
I wanna live before I die....
Dont want the world to pass me by
I wanna live.. I wanna live before I die!
Ya tell me this'!
Ya tell me that!
Ya make the rules that's where it's at....
They hold me down!
They tell me lies!
Do I listen? I don't even try!
Listen at! The world's a stage...
I'm.. not.. gonna.. be.. held... by.. my.. cage!
I'm runnin' wild!
I'm runnin' free!
Just one shot at it is all I need
I wanna live before I die....
Dont want the world to pass me by
There's so much more I wanna try
I wanna live
I wanna live before I die....
Dont want the world to pass me by
I wanna live! I wanna live before I.. die
I can't wait around, I just can't waste my time
I don't care if ya' think that I'm mad out of my mind!
I wanna live before I die....
Dont want the world to pass me by
There's so much more I wanna try!
I wanna live....
I wanna live before I die....
Dont want the world to pass me by
I wanna live.... I wanna live.... I wanna live!
I wanna live before I die....
Dont want the world to pass me by
I wanna live.. I wanna live before I die!
3. One Day At A Time
I wake up in the night,
The nightmare comes alive,
My heart is beating like a drum.
It's only 3 a.m.
Oh here I go again
I close my eyes but sleep wont come.
It's been like this for too long
I get back up and carry on
One Day at a time,
No Mountains to climb
But sometimes it don't come easy.
One day at a time,
Or I lose my mind
That's all I can do believe me.
The sun comes creepin in,
I've had no sleep again
Its been another long, long night
This thing wont go away
Its time to face the day
What can I do to make things right?
Its been like this to be gone,
I found the strength to carry on.
One Day at a time,
No Mountains to climb
But sometimes it don't come easy.
One day at a time,
Or I lose my mind
That's all I can do believe me.
Its been like this for to long,
I found a way to carry on.
One Day at a time,
No Mountains to climb
But sometimes it don't come easy.
One day at a time,
Or I lose my mind
That's all I can do believe me.
One Day at a time,
No Mountains to climb
But sometimes it don't come easy.
One day at a time,
Or I lose my mind
That's all I can do believe me.
One Day at a time,
One Day at a time.
4. So What!
There's things that I've bought
And there's things I need
It's more than a thought,
You know you better believe
I feel it's not what you got,
But what your giving back means
So much
Lifes beautiful,
And that sucks
Hey if you like it or not
So what, that's all we got
Who cares!
Your telling everybody that the worlds unfair, well
So What! So What!
That's life
It's time to get real,
It's not paradise,well
So What! So What!
What if you got,
All of your dreams
But then what if it's not
Everything,
To you that you always thought
That it was gonna be
So What
Life's beautiful,
And that sucks
Hey if you like it or not
So what, that's all we got
Who cares!
Your telling everybody that the worlds unfair, well
So What! So What!
That's life
It's time to get real,
It's not paradise,well
So What! So What!
Who cares!
Your telling everybody that the worlds unfair, well
So What! So What!
That's life
It's time to get real,
It's not paradise,well
So What! So What!
Who cares!
Your telling everybody that the worlds unfair, well
So What! So What!
That's life
It's time to get real,
It's not paradise,well
So What! So What!
5. Just In Case
Outside the sky is blue
Always try to do my part
But now it's raining in my heart
There's just so much I could do
It's nearly got ahold of me
It's why I feel so incomplete
A lost and broken man
Only I would understand
I'd be more than glad to join right in
Only I could pray
I know what I would say
To whom it may concern
Just in case I don't make it to heaven
I'd like to personally thank you for giving
Something so beautiful makes life worth living yeah
Thank you just in case i
I'm trying once again
Everytime I try to talk to
It's like I never seem to get through
I never have the strength, never put my faith in you
Maybe I should just realize
I don't deserve you in my life
They say it's in your hands
Everything's just like you planned
It's good enough for them, so why not me
Only I could pray
I know what I would say
Dear god I'm talking to ya
Just in case I don't make it to heaven
I'd like to personally thank you for giving
Something so beautiful makes life worth living yeah
Thank you just in case i
Soon enough my time will come the hours getting late
The sun is setting fast and you'll be standing by the gate
I'm sure you're going to say to me son why couldn't you just relate
I said to tell you the truth I already do in so many other ways
Just in case I don't make it to heaven
I'd like to personally thank you for giving
Something so beautiful makes life worth living yeah
Thank you just in case i
Just in case I don't make it to heaven
I'd like to personally thank you for giving
Something so beautiful makes life worth living yeah
Thank you just in case i
I don't make it
6. Fallin' Apart
Another song about nothing feels right
And everything is going wrong
Seems we've been here once before
Whose fault and who's to blame
Doesn't really matter nothing's ever gonna change
It's not working any more
I'm trying so hard to not let go
I'm trying to let you know
Now I'm falling apart all over again
All I got to do is keep on hanging on
Love is breaking my heart
And love will bend
All I got to do is hang on
You know what's sad
We're losing everything that we always thought we'd have
But that's the way it's got to be
Who knows and who's to say
There's nothing left to do but just turn and walk away
Never thought I'd ever leave
I'm trying so hard to not let go
I'm trying to let you know
Love is breaking my heart
And love will bend
All I got to do is hang on
I always thought we'd be together
Oh, yea
I always thought that we'd belong
Oh, yea
I always thought we'd last forever
And I thought that we would never
Ever let it go so wrong
Hang on
Hang on
Hang on
7. Breakin' Free
I've had all I can take
The lyin' to my face
I'm tried of the abuse, all the excuses that you've made
There'll be no compromise
I've finally realized
It's time to cut the noose, I'm bustin' loose and start livin' my life....
I don't care what you say
You'd better get out of my way
I'm tired of wastin' my time,
Now I'm breakin' free....
I always knew the day would come
When everything's coming undone
Now I've made up my mind, I'm breakin' free.....
I'm done with swallowing my pride
And the truth in the end denied
You know it makes me sick how you're so quick to always criticize
You never find fault in yourself
You're always blamin' someone else
When you know that it's you and it's true that were through, it's just a livin' hell....
I don't care what you say
You'd better get out of my way
I'm tired of wastin' my time,
Now I'm breakin' free...
I always knew the day would come
When everything's coming undone
Now I've made up my mind, I'm breakin' free....
Every time I start feelin' down,
I know it's time that I turned this around,
Every time I start thinking' what went wrong
I can't believe that it went so bad,
All the times that you drove me mad
I can't believe that I stayed with you so long.....
I don't care what you say
You'd better get out of my way
I'm tired of wastin' my time,
Now I'm breakin' free...
I always knew the day would come
When everything's coming undone
Now I've made up my mind, I'm breakin' free...
8. All Of Me
If I would have known it was gonna come down to this
I take back the first kiss that lead to choking on your fist
Your heart had been broken
Mine too then you ripped it wide open
Called up your two girlfriends
Told them hurry up and get your ass over here now
Said it won't be long till I wish she were dead
She had no intentions of leaving without taking everything
First time in years, you didn't lie to me
You took my pride, my dreams, my hopes,
Even my heart when you knew it was broke
Every single ounce of integrity
You took all of me
All of me
Turned my pockets inside out
Making sure that without a doubt
You had absolutely everything
You took all of me
All of me
Watching as your leaving
Thinking that was so unbelieving
Now I can start breathing
But looks can be deceiving
She is so cold hearted
Sending me a letter regarding
The last time we parted
Said she was only getting started
I can't believe she still wants something from me
When she left me here with nothing at all
How about her paying me
For all my pain and suffering
You took my pride, my dreams, my hopes,
Even my heart when you knew it was broke
Every single ounce of my sanity
You took all of me
All of me
Turned my pockets inside out
Making sure that without a doubt
You had absolutely everything
You took all of me
All of me
Now that it's all over
I can feel the weight off of my shoulder
Good thing you're a good liar
Stole enough of my money to retire
I can't believe she still wants something from me
When she left me here with nothing at all
How about her paying me
For all my pain and suffering
You took my pride, my dreams, my hopes,
Even my heart when you knew it was broke
Every single ounce of integrity
You took all of me
All of me
Turned my pockets inside out
Making sure that without a doubt
You had absolutely everything
You took all of me
All of me
All of me
9. The First Time
Another night, Another day
Another minute slips away
And wonder why you're here at all
Ambitions fade, times get tough
You tried so hard but its not enough
And now your backs against the wall
Just remember who you are, you can be a lucky star
Be everything you wanna be, you're extraordinary
Dont waste your time with memories, you're extraordinary
Take your chances while you can
Take your own life in your hands
And you can start it all again
Like its the first time
You reminisce, static haze
You're thinking back to better days
Its time to put it all behind
The futures now, forget the past
Your life is rushing by to fast
Its time to open up your mind
Just remember who you are
You can be a lucky star
Be everything you wanna be, you're extraordinary
Dont waste your time with memories, you're extraordinary
Take your chances while you can
Take your own life in your hands
And you can start it all again
Be everything you wanna be, you're extraordinary
Dont waste your time with memories, you're extraordinary
Take your chances while you can
Take your own life in your hands
And you can start it all again
Be everything you wanna be, you're extraordinary
Dont waste your time with memories, you're extraordinary
Take your chances while you can
Take your own life in your hands
And you can start it all again
You're extraordinary

11. In A Hole Again
Don't want anyone to know
Who I really am so they'll never see
All the things I hide behind these precious walls
I built just for me
So if they look into the windows of my soul
All they're gonna see
Are my eyes starin' back
And not shattered glass or the broken side of me
'Cause I'm so afraid to show my darkest secrets
I keep them wrapped in chains
And locked up in a place where no one goes
But I'm sure my insecurities will give it all away
I'm heading fast straight for a crash and burn
For me there is no shame
(I'm going down) Back in a hole again
(Deep under ground) Back in a hole again
(Where no one's around) And I don't need a friend
(So safe and sound) Back in a hole again
I'm finally back of course behind the mask
I've always worn for you
To distract you, since I couldn't face the fact
That someone ever knew
That all I am is just some smoke and mirrors
And a gun pointin' back at you
And you to catch me in the act of this
I know it would be through
All these years I've lived in fear, that you would find out
Just exactly what I'm made of
Or what I'm really all about
And it would kill me just to see you
Point your finger and hear you say
"You're one of them" and this I could not stand
So I'll be on my way
(I'm going down) Back in a hole again
(Deep under ground) Back in a hole again
(Where no one's around) And I don't need a friend
(So safe and sound) Back in a hole again
(I'm going down) Back in the hole again
(Deep under ground) I'm in the hole again
(Where no one's around) And I don't need a friend
(So safe and sound) Back in the hole again
Back in the hole again
12. The Game
World's gone mad
Hey the world's on fire
Food's too dear and your gas is higher
Got to eat, and you've got to breathe
Got no money, well, it's time to leave
Dow Jones crashes, the cats get rich
See them laughing
It's a game (big game)
It's just a game (a big game)
Profit's in hey, what's going on?
All this time, it's the same old song
If you've got dough, they'll lend you more
When you're broke, you get shown the door
They'll take your home and they'll take your car
Make you live in your mom's backyard
The rich get rich, then get rich some more
Pretty soon, they'll be all at war
It's a game (big game)
It's just a game (a big game)
So who's to blame?
It's just a game
Playin games with people's lives
Who struggle hard just to survive
The world is goin' up in flames
it's just a game
