1. INTO THE NOW

The future's on it's way, the past is gone
Old and rusted, with your busted bones
Break the crystal ball, you're on your own
Wipe away the fear of the unknown

Now, here we go, on with the show
Makin' our way, just living for today
It's in my sight, and the time is right
For takin' a bow, into the now

Guilty of communication crimes
Was it just a binge, or was I blind
Overcoming opened up my mind
Don't let the things from the past eat you up inside

Now, here we go, on with the show
Makin' our way, just living for today
It's in my sight, and the time is right
For takin' a bow, into the now

Is it love that you break, or is it love that you make
Is it love we're breaking, love we're making, or love just wasting time

Now, here we go, and it's on with the show
Makin' our way, just living for today
It's in my sight, and the time is right
For takin' a bow, into the now
Now, here we go, on with the show
Makin' our way, just living for today
It's in my sight, and the time is right
For takin' a bow, into the now


2. LOOK AT ME

Well i'd never break your heart, now tell me would you break mine
Re-wind and clean the slate, wipe away the hard times
Well i never did forsake you, and i never would
I got away from the common ground, just because i could
There was a shadow, following me around
Somehow i lost my way, that was then, take a look at me now

For everything in life, there is a reason
Sometimes the reason i do, make it not so good

Seems like all that time away took me one step closer to my suicide
Spun around like i jus got played, all caught with the users and the crucified
A shining example of what you never wana be
The fame of teachers drowning in a wishing well
With no apology
Me and my shadow, no-body else around, somehow i lost my way, that was then take a look at me now

For everything in life, there is a reason
Sometimes the reason i do, make it not so good

Feels like the time is right for getting back to even
You are the reason i do, aint that enough for you!

For everything in life, there is a reason
Sometimes the reason i do, make it not so good

Feels like the time is right for getting back to even
You are the reason i do, aint that enough for you
Aint that enough for you
You are the reason i do
Aint that enough for you
Ahhhh, take a look at me now


3. WHAT A SHAME

Did you think it wouldn't show, you're here with me, but I'm so alone
And now this house don't feel like home, I can't believe how much we've grown
So far apart, so far away, you just can't hide something as plain as day
I think it's safe to say, that's it's just no good

And I don't need you in my life, the way you cut me like a knife
You burned me once, but now that it's done, you'll never burn me twice

Now that it's all been said and done, do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed, and what a shame

I know you think you're always right, and just because, you've got God in your life
But he don't appreciate the way you lied, he can't believe how hard you tried
To take me down, to take it all, hanging around, and making sure I fall
Then say it was me to blame, and I was, for trusting someone like you anyways

And I don't need you in my life, the way you cut me like a knife
You burned me once, but now that it's done, you'll never burn me twice

Now that it's all been said and done, do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed, and what a shame
Now that it's all been said and done, do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed, and what a shame

And I don't need you in my life, the way you cut me like a knife
You burned me once, but now that it's done, you'll never burn me twice

Now that it's all been said and done, do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed, and what a shame
Now that it's all been said and done, do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed, and what a shame


4. HEAVEN NINE ELEVEN

Tell me why there so much pain today
'Cause taking lives is for the gain or so they say
I can't believe it but they feel this way
And that's the way of the world
Tell me why it takes a tragedy to see
To wake us up and bring us down on to our knees
With all the people suffering with diseases

And that the way
That's the way
That's the way of the world

As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better everyday
As the sun burns the ground
There's got to be another way
Is our god looking down
And does it feel everybody's pain
As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better every day

Teach the children what means to love
Show them why we can never give enough
Lets work together we can rise above

And change the ways
Change the ways
Change the ways of the world

As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better everyday
As the sky turns the ground
There's got to be another way
Is our god looking down
And does it feel every body's pain
As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better every day

(Heaven)

As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better everyday
As the sun burns the ground
There's got to be another way
Is our god looking down
And does it feel every body's pain
As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better every day

As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better everyday
As the sky turns the ground
There's got to be another way
Is our god looking down
And does it feel every body's pain
As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better every day

Heavens looking down
Heavens looking down
Heavens looking down


5. WORDS CAN'T EXPLAIN

Once upon a day, love walked away
Soon after, I would learn, only never to return
Feeling life was through,
Like it was till you, saved me before I drowned,
Put me up on dry ground

And I meant what I said, when I told you
I'll never love like this again
I wanna hold you, in my arms, wrap my legs (something, something)

If only words could explain,
I'd sit and tell you now how I feel about everything
I'd never let you down, and you better believe, you can count on me
I couldnt ask for a better prayer
I'll never love like this again, oh no!

This love is real, so much I feel it so deep inside,
As though our hearts would syncronize
Now since you came and colored up my life
I'd never make it in black and white
Although theres those shades of gray
You come around and go away

And I meant what I said, when I told you
I'll never love like this again
I wanna show you, your in my heart, in my soul, your all I want to know

If only words could explain,
I'd sit and tell you now how I feel about everything
I'd never let you down, and you better believe, you can count on me

What does it really mean
I'll never know for sure
To know what to believe
How to know what I'm feeling
I'm going to a place, Ive never been before
I just cant help myself, cant help what I'm doing

If only words could explain,
If only words could explain,
If only words could explain,
If only words could explain,
Oh, baby how I feel


6. CAUGHT IN A DREAM

If you can imagine this, The whole world sharing one big kiss

These are thoughts all through my brain,
that I daydream everyday that I'm alive and well
Right now I'm alive, I'm feeling, [well]
Its my live to live my way so I'll keep daydreamin' away
And who knows maybe someday it will all come true, and I will get my way
And we will live as one

I'm caught up in a dream
I'm gonna wish for it all
No one's gonna tell me how
No way this is my dream now
I'm caught up in what seems, simply impossiable
I aint gonna change a thing
No way, its is my dream

And what can not will be done
for every living thing under the sun
Forget color, forget race, and just be one big happy face,
among this sea of people, live among Gods creatures
Sharing love, that was sent down from above
here to share with one another
Father, brother, sister, mother, everybody sharing love
Sharing love..

I'm caught up in a dream
I'm gonna wish for it all
No one's gonna tell me how
No way this is my dream now
I'm caught up in what seems, simply impossiable
I aint gonna change a thing
No way, its is my dream

This is my dream....
I close my eyes, and everything will be alright
Here in my fantacy, livin' in harmony, will make my dream come alive
Whoa yeah...

I'm caught up in a dream
I'm gonna wish for it all
No one's gonna tell me how
No way this is my dream now
I'm caught up in what seems, simply impossiable
I aint gonna change a thing
No way, its is my dream

I'm caught up in a dream
I'm gonna wish for it all
No one's gonna tell me how
No way this is my dream now
I'm caught up in what seems, simply impossiable
I aint gonna change a thing
No way, its is my dream

Now if can imagine this, the whole world sharing one big kiss
Take away the pain and hurt,
Make like heaven here on earth
Without reason to die and give it ever-lasting life to all


7. MILES AWAY

Such a heavy price to pay, all the time that I've spent missing home
And I try not to complain, but sometimes it won't leave me alone
And I think I know myself better than anyone else
Cause I'm me, I oughta know, what I want, what I need, what's inside of me
Maybe something that I took to get outta my head, or took for the thrill
The way I dress, the way that I look, or the way that I pay the bills

'Cause you're miles away, miles away, how could you be so wrong
'Cause you're miles away, miles away, how could you know the score

All eyes on the stage, all the glitter and glow
Move to the rhythm, wile striking a pose
Music and melody, and words to a poem
You think that you know me, you're not even close

Though I'm living out my dream, wasn't long 'til I figured it out
Nothing ever comes for free, even here on the merry-go-round
So you wanna take a ride, rollin', and living the life
'Cause you think I got it made, well, in case you don't know, my friend died today
And it's tearing me apart, if I knew what to say, don't know where to start
I reached down in my heart, and with paper an pen put it in a song

'Cause you're miles away, miles away, how could you be so wrong
'Cause you're miles away, miles away, how could you know the score

All eyes on the stage, all the glitter and glow
Move to the rhythm, wile striking a pose
Music and melody, and words to a poem
You think that you know me, you're not even close

The pages have burned but they're written in stone
Now, what will become of us, nobody knows
And the wheel keeps on turning, I rise and I fall
And I try to get back, but I'm lost in it all
And I look all around, and I see that it's gone
You're miles away, miles away

Yeah, you're miles away, yeah, you're miles away
Miles away, yeah, you're miles away


8. MIGHTY MOUSE

Mr. Trouble never hangs around,
when he hears this Mighty sound,

Here I come to save the day!
That means that Mighty Mouse is on the way!

Yes sir, when there is a wrong to right,
Mighty Mouse will join the fight!

On the sea or on the land,
He's got the situation well in hand!


9. GOT NO GLORY

What i feel is what i say,
I'm keeping it real so never mind the taste,

Cause i know there's nothing deeper than truth,
So give me the reason not the excuse,
Even the things i can hardly believe,
Is something that i can use,

I'll never be your alibi,
Or tell you what you want to hear,
Knowing that i'd rather die.
Than have my words be insincere,

I got no glorry,

So i'm gonna give it to you like it is,
If you want to hear the real story,
And not some candy coated lie

Come and get it

To falsify don't make no sense,
I'd rather deal with the consequences,

Cause i know there's nothing deeper than truth,
So give me the reason not the excuse,
Even the things i can hardly believe,
Is something that i can use

I'll never need an alibi,
Don't sell it to me out of fear
I told you that i'd rather die.
Than have my words be insincere

I got no glorry,

So i'm gonna give it to you like it is,
If you want to hear the real story,
And not some candy coated lie

I got no glorry,

So i'm gonna give it to you like it is,
If you want to hear the real story,
And not some candy coated lie

Come and get it


10. COME TO ME

You can come around,and I will help find a way
If something's got you down, it's just one of those days
That you find you've been caught in the middle, feeling like there ain't no way out
And it hurts you more than just a little, got you head all full of doubts
I'll be your shelter from the rain, until it's time to swim
Be there to help you share the pain, while never giving in
We'll keep it unconditional

Come to me, if you need someone, and you're looking for some company
Come to me, and I'll be there

Ain't nothing like a friend, no matter what you do
Who's always there 'til the end, it's like ya' got nothing to lose
What about when you're lost in the shuffle, knocked down, I'll pick you up again
If you days turn to lonely nights, and your nights into lonely days
I may not get it right, but I'll help you find a way

We'll take it all day by day

Come to me, if you need someone, and your looking for some company
If you need someone, you know that you can come to me
If you need someone, you know that you can come to me

If something busted your bubble, or maybe, your fortress had crumbled
There ain't nothing wrong with being humbled, 'cause a humbling is good for the soul
Oh, we all need, everybody needs, everybody needs someone to hold

You can come around, I will help find a way
If something's got you down, it's just one of those...
Days turned to lonely nights, nights into lonely days
I may not get it right, but I'll help you find a way.


11. RECOGNIZE

Wonderful lady
Such a beautiful baby
Gonna teach him what's wrong and what's right
Gonna show him direction
With love and affection
Gonna make his connection in life
But now things didn't go the way she thought they would
He think's God is the devil and evil is good
He probably wouldn't change it even if he could at all

All you know is what you feel
You got to read between the lines
What is not and what is real
You got to learn how to recognize
What you're holdin' in your hands
What you see before your eyes
If you're gonna understand
You got to learn how to recognize

Heart is in danger
Well, love is a stranger
When the fear turns the anger to rage
It's not makin' any sense
'Cause you don't know the difference
Wouldn't know it if it slapped you in the face
Now it's all mixed up
It's all a big mistake
He don't know the difference between love and hate
He probably wouldn't change it even if he could at all

All you know is what you feel
You got to read between the lines
What is not and what is real
You got to learn how to recognize
What you're holdin' in your hands
What you see before your eyes
If you're gonna understand
You got to learn how to recognize

Why should I understand
When I could not comprehend what you say
Just shove it in my face
But if I cannot be made
I'm gonna understand

But now things didn't go the way she thought they would
He think's God is the devil and evil is good
He probably wouldn't change it even if he could at all

All you know is what you feel
You got to read between the lines
What is not and what is real
You got to learn how to recognize
What you're holdin' in your hands
What you see before your eyes
If you're gonna understand
You got to learn how to recognize

All you know is what you feel
You got to read between the lines
What is not and what is real
You got to learn how to recognize
What you're holdin' in your hands
What you see before your eyes
If you're gonna understand
You got to learn how to recognize

Recognize


12. ONLY YOU

In a world far from perfect
It's not always easy to connect
Where everything can be so complicated
I know that "simply, you're the best"

I don't want nobody else, I only want you
Wanna keep you for myself, it's selfish, but true
I don't want anything, to ever come between us
'Cause I don't want nobody else

In a world far from perfect...still
One never knows what to expect, so tell me
What will I do?
So hard to think of you as "dearly departed"
If only desperation could resurrect

'Cause I don't want nobody else, I only want you
Not some picture on a shelf, no...'cause that
Won't carry me through
How does debilitated, find the strength to
Make it through

'Cause I don't want nobody else, only you
Now I don't want nobody else, I only want you
And not some picture on a shelf, on no...
'Cause that won't carry me through
How does asphyxiated, ever find the breath to
Make it through

'Cause I don't want nobody else,
I don't want nobody else,
Only you, only you...
