Take, take your time
Smell the roses, but steal the vines
Don't wait for the hands of time
To second guess and change your mind
Now shine.
Here's your moment to shine
Shine
Chorus
Lay it down, my friend
Close your eyes, breathe in
And I'll tkae you there and back again
No more questions why
I'm not suprised
Why you have
Been there and back again
Replace,repeace that line
That spoke to you
But showed no signs
To be alive.
So are you living or dead?
You have made a choice to hear your voice
Or hold on to what they said?
Now shine, HEre's you moment to shine
Shine

|2.) Gone |
Intro
Feeling like this could only mean
I'm sinking.
Feeling like this could only mean
I'm sinking.
Well, I'm sinking.
Pull me up.
Chorus
Every time I see your clothes scattered out on the floor,
I say I thought you would be home.
You said you never would be gone.
Every time I see the light not burning on the porch,
I say I thought you would be home.
You said you never would be gone,
But you are.
You are.
Feeling overwhelmed, I take a dive
To a once overfilled but now empty place to hide.
The day you turned on me is the day I died,
And I've forgotten what it's like,
And how it feels to be alive.
Chorus
Every time I see your clothes scattered out on the floor,
I say I thought you would be home.
You said you never would be gone.
Every time I see the light not burning on the porch,
I say I thought you would be home.
You said you never would be gone,
But you are.
You are.
Reach up to the sky.
When nothing seems to go right,
When nothing seems to go right for me.
Chorus
Every time I see your clothes scattered out on the floor,
I say I thought you would be home.
You said you never would be gone.
Every time I see the light not burning on the porch,
I say I thought you would be home.
You said you never would be gone,
But you are.
You are.
|3.) It's Not Over |
Verse 1
I was blown away. What could I say?
It all seemed to make sense.
You've taken away everything,
And I can't deal with that.
I try to see the good in life,
But good things in life are hard to find.
We'll blow it away, blow it away.
Can we make this something good?
Well, I'll try to do it right this time around.
Chorus
Let's start over.
I'll try to do it right this time around.
It's not over
'Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground.
This love is killing me, But you're the only one.
It's not over
..
Verse2
(same as 1st verse until noted)
Taken all I could take,
And I cannot wait.
We're wasting too much time
Being strong, holding on.
Can't let it bring us down.
My life with you means everything,
So I won't give up that easily.
I'll blow it away, blow it away.
Can we make this something good?
'Cause it's all misunderstood.
Well, I'll try to do it right this time around.
Repeat Chorus
Bridge
We can't let this get away.
Let it out, let it out.
Don't get caught up in yourself.
Let it out.
Final Chorus:
Let's start over.
I'll try to do it right this time around.
It's not over
'Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground.
This love is killing me, But you're the only one.
It's not over ..
Let's start over.
It's not over, yeah...
This love is killing me, But you're the only one.
It's not over.
|4.) All These Lives |
Doesn't come down when she calls,
"It's time for breakfast."
Momma can't get down those halls
Fast enough to see
Glass is sprayed across the floor
From the broken window.
She can't breathe anymore.
Can't deny what we know.
Refrain
They're gonna find you, just believe.
You're not a person; you're a disease.
Chorus
All these lives that you've been taking,
Deep inside, my heart is breaking.
Broken homes from separation.
Don't you know it's violation?
It's so wrong, but you'll see.
Never gonna let you take my world from me.
The world outside these walls may know you're breathing,
But you ain't comin' in.
You ain't comin' in.
Posters hung on building walls
Of missing faces.
Months go by without the cause,
The clues, or traces.
(repeat refrain)
(repeat chorus)
BRIDGE,.
Shed the light on all the ones who never thought they would become
A father, mother asking why this world can be so cold.
Doesn't come down when she calls,
"It's time for breakfast."
The memories begin to fall.
She asks, "When will I be free?"
(repeat chorus)
|5.) Crashed |
Intro
Well I was moving at the speed of sound.
Head-spinning, couldn't find my way around, and
Didn't know that I was going down
Yeah, yeah
Where I've been, well it's all a blur.
What I was looking for, I'm not sure.
Too late and didn't see it coming.
Yeah, yeah.
Chorus
And then I crashed into you,
And I went up in flames.
Could've been the death of me,
But then you breathed your breath in me.
And I crashed into you,
Like a runaway train.
You will consume me,
But I can't walk away
Somehow, I couldn't stop myself.
I just wanted to know how it felt.
Too strong, I couldn't hold on.
Yeah, yeah.
Now I'm just tryin' to make some sense
Out of how and why this happened.
Where we're heading, there's just no knowing.
Yeah, yeah.
Chorus
Bridge
From your face, your eyes
Are burning to me.
You saved me, you gave me
Just what I need.
[Chorus}
And then I crashed into you
And then I crashed into you
And then I crashed into you
And then I crashed into you
Like a runaway train
You will consume me
But I can't walk away
|6.) Feels Like Tonight |
You got me
Thinking it I'll be alright
You, you told me
"come and Take A look inside"
You believed me
In every single lie
But I failed you this time
Chorus
And it feels like tonight
I can't believe I'm broken inside
Can't you see that there's nothing that
I wanna do
But try to make it up to you?
And it feels like tonight
Tonight
I was waiting
For the day you'd come around
I was chasing
And nothing was all I found
From the moment you came into my life
You showed me what's right
(repeat chorus)
Bridge
I never felt like this before
Just when I leave, I'm back for more
Nothing else here seems to matter
In these ever changing days
You're the one thing that remains
I could stay like this forever
(repeat chorus)
And it feels like tonight
I can't believe I'm broken inside
Can't you see that there's nothing that I wanna do
But try to make it up to you?
And it feels like tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Cause there's nothing that I wanna do
But try to make it up to you
And it feels like tonigt
|7.) What I Want |
Its always seemed that I was sorry for that things
That I did
But never did a thing about it till I let you in
It's kinda funny about the time that
I was falling apart
You came and put me back together, now
Chorus
Cause what I want
And What I need
Has now become the same thing
Youve been offering
As days go by
I've finally become what you want me to be
I still remember all the stupid things that
I've said done
But still you stuck aroudn with me where all your friends
said run!
Given me a nmae I found myself inside all the flames
Becoming everything for you again
(repeat chorus)
Bridge
Don't tell me you saw it all along
God help me, I never knew it alone
Guess I was wrong
Adlib: -- (2x) (repeat chorus)
|8.) Breakdown |
Intro
Open up the book you beat me with again
Read it off one sentence at a time
I'm tired of all the lines
Convictions of all the lines
What right do you have to point at me?
Refrain
Well, I'm sitting alone thinking about it all over coffee
And still crowding my space are the things you still
hold against me
You cannot save me
Chorus
Well, it's not the time to breakdwon
It's not the time to breakdown
It's not the time to break up this love
Keep it together now
It's not the time to break
Read it all, no need for separating here
You see what you want and try to justify
All you little lines
Convictions and your lies
What right do you have to point at me?
(repeat refrain)
(repeat chorus)
Open up the book you beat me with again
Read it off one sentence at a time
Well it's not the time to breakdown
Well, its not the time to break down
Well, its not time to break up this love
Keep it together now
Well, its not the time to break
|9.) Over You |
Now that it's all said and done,
I can't believe you were the one
To build me up and tear me down,
Like an old abandoned house.
What you said when you left
Just left me cold and out of breath.
I fell too far, was in way too deep.
Guess I let you get the best of me.
(CHORUS)
Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know.
I'm slowly getting closure.
I guess it's really over.
I'm finally getting better.
And now I'm picking up the pieces.
I'm spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together.
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
I got over you.
You took a hammer to these walls,
Dragged the memories down the hall,
Packed your bags and walked away.
There was nothing I could say.
And when you slammed the front door shut,
A lot of others opened up,
So did my eyes so I could see
That you never were the best for me.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
(SOLO)
Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know.
Well, I never saw it coming.
I should've started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know.
I'm slowly getting closure.
I guess it's really over.
I'm finally getting better.
And now I'm picking up the pieces.
I'm spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together.
Whoa oh ah oh
Well I'm putting my heart back together,
Whoa oh ah oh
'Cause I got over you.
Whoa oh ah oh
Well I got over you.
Whoa oh ah oh
I got over you.
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
I got over you.
|10.) Used To |
Verse1
You used to talk to me like
I was the only one around.
You used to lean on me like
The only other choice was falling down.
You used to walk with me like
We had nowhere we needed to go,
Nice and slow, to no place in particular.
Chorus
We used to have this figured out;
We used to breathe without a doubt.
When nights were clear, you were the first star that I'd see.
We used to have this under control.
We never thought.
We used to know.
At least there's you, and at least there's me.
Can we get this back?
Can we get this back to how it used to be?
Verse2
I used to reach for you when
I got lost along the way.
I used to listen.
You always had just the right thing to say.
I used to follow you.
Never really cared where we would go,
Fast or slow, to anywhere at all.
Chorus
We used to have this figured out;
We used to breathe without a doubt.
When nights were clear, you were the first star that I'd see.
We used to have this under control.
We never thought.
We used to know.
At least there's you, and at least there's me.
Can we get this back?
Can we get this back to how it used to be?
Bridge
I look around me,
And I want you to be there
'Cause I miss the things that we shared.
Look around you.
It's empty, and you're sad
'Cause you miss the love that we had.
You used to talk to me like
I was the only one around,
The only one around.
Chorus
We used to have this figured out;
We used to breathe without a doubt.
When nights were clear, you were the first star that I'd see.
We used to have this under control.
We never thought.
We used to know.
At least there's you, and at least there's me.
Can we get this back?
Can we get this back to how it used to be, Yeah
To how it used to be
To how it used to be, yeah.
To how it used to be
To how it used to be.
|11.) What About Now |
Verse 1
Shadows fill an empty heart,
as love is fading.
For all the things that we are,
Or not saying.
Can we see beyond the scars?
And make it to the dawn.
Change the colours of the sky,
and open up too,
The ways you make me feel alive,
The ways I loved you,
For all the things that never die,
To make it threw the night.
Love will find you!
Chorus
What about now?
What about today?
What if youre making me,
All that i was meant to be?
What if our love, never went away?
What if it's lost behind?
Words we could never find?
Baby before it's too late!
What about now?
Verse 2
The sun is breaking in your eyes,
To start a new day...
This broken heart can still survive,
With a touch of your grace...
The shadows fade into the light,
When I am by your side,
When love will find you...
Chorus
What about now?
What about today?
What if youre making me,
All that I was meant to be?
What if our love, never went away?
What if it's lost behind?
Words we could never find?
Baby before it's too late!
Bridge/Solo:
What about now!?
Now that we're here,
Now that we've come this far.
Just hold on!
There is nothing to fear!
For I am right beside you,
for all my life I am yours.
What about now?
What about today?
What if you're making me?
All that I was meant to be?
What if our love,
never went away?
What if it's lost behind,
words we could never find?
Chorus
What about now?
What about today?
What if your making me,
all that i was meant to be?
What if our love, never went away?
What if it's lost behind,
words we could never find?
Baby before it's too late!
Baby before it's too late!
Maybe before it's too late...
What about now?
