TAKING THE WEIGHT OFF
01:38
|

I got something to lose with everything I love.
I’m not someone who hopes. I won’t complain to you.
There’s no such thing as a waste of time, cause I can’t learn without fail.
There’s nothing wrong with me. There’s something wrong with you.
I’m taking the weight off
Reaching to the sky
I’m taking the weight off
and hanging you to dry
Reach inside yourself, you’ll find a pile of dust.
I trust in making changes to dig me out alive.
Sometimes it cuts like the sharpest blade.
I’ve found a way stitch it up
The pressure pulls the pin, to let the right one in.

Man UP

Man up
I’ve been looking for water in a dry place
Flashing light at the sun.
I’m only counting to 10 when it’s 21
Things I can never get done.
Turning left on a right pointing arrow
I’m almost all out of fuel.
Can’t you see I’m a sucker for losing
But I’m a sucker for you.
Chorus
Strong chin from the punches I’ve taken
Cause I’m nobody’s fool.
Somebody’s gonna try to bust through my doorstep
That’s why I sleep in my shoes.
I’m always ready for the next confrontation
Giving a piece of my mind.
I wanna be the only master of my life
The only one in control.
Man up
Whatcha gonna do
When all is left on you
Whatcha gonna say
When you meet that final day.

ARE YOU OUT THERE
01:56
|
|||
|
I was left to find the future in the flames within the sun.
There are times when I have cleaned the stain. The damage never done.
Looking back at what I had, a flicker of today. .
There is so much more to balance in the time we spent as one.
Are you out there? I want to know.
Is it too late, to bring you home.
Are you out there.
Circling round the early morning waiting for the storm.
Peace of mind comes over me when it never comes.
I know you’re out there. Left undone.
It’s never too late, to bring you home.
I know you’re out there. I still remember….

I DON'T CARE
02:08
|
|||
|
I don’t care for waiting in line
I don’t care for wasting my time
Round and round we go about this.
I’m not gonna change my mind.
I’m gonna do whatever I want
and take my freedom down the line.
I don’t care for waiting in line
I don’t care for wasting my time
Back and forth we disagree
that waiting is a mystery.
I feel so stupid standing there
to make believe that we should care.
I don’t care for waiting in line
I don’t care for wasting my time

LET ME GO
01:37
|
|||
|
If I ever find a home, it won’t be too soon.
I’ve got so much more to give, to people around the world.
I don’t belong here, but I’m doing the best I can.
I don’t belong here, and I need to do something soon
I’m closer to the truth, of who I will become
It’s never too late to make a better you.
I don’t belong here, but I’m doing the best I can.
I don’t belong here, and I need to do something soon
Why don’t you just let me go----
I don’t belong here, but I’m doing the best I can.
I don’t belong here, and I need to do something soon

THIS IS MY LIFE
03:00
|
|||
|
I think I’m far away from passing on,
until the new year comes.
It motivates me to carry on and make each day worth a stone.
Chorus
This is my life, This is my life
And I’m gonna make you remember
This is my life, This is my life
It’s waiting there for me
I’m closer everyday and time slows down
Taking the high road to futures door.
and never look down and lose control.
It’s never stopped me from risking it all.
Chorus
This is my life, This is my life
And I’m gonna make you remember
This is my life, This is my life
It’s waiting there for me
BRIDGE
There is nothing wasted- trust shall set me free
I can hardly take it - time shall set me free
I was born to face it - time shall set me free
When I’m old and jaded - time shall set me free

ON an ON
02:13
|
|||
|
I promise that I won’t be late
It’s just a matter of delay
That I can’t control
I found a pattern of dismay
when I was ready to let go
I blame myself for being cynical
I wasn’t ready to move on
There was too much animosity,
Chorus
I finally found myself again
feeling strong enough to start things up
This is where we need to meet halfway
I’m tired of flying back from coast to coast
On and on and on we go
Laugh until we cry
On and on and on we go
Chivalry won’t die.
I’m tired of being away from you 2x
