Building & Breaking
We were supposed to be
Always Forever
Love unconditionally
And ever
You put me in this hole that I can’t fill
No one can get past your stubborn
Build it up
The bar so high that I can’t reach
Break it down
And watch it crashing down on me
Here you go again
You always do this
Spread me so thin again
You can’t keep doing this
You put me in this hole that I can’t fill
No one can get past your stubborn
Build it up
The bar so high that I can’t reach
Break it down
And watch it crashing down on me
Build me up
Break me down
Build me up
Break me down
Whoa oh oh
Build me up
The bar so high that I can’t reach
Break me down
And watch it crashing down on me
Build me up
The bar so high that I can’t reach
Break me down
And watch it crashing down on me

So Desperate

So Desperate
I’ve- got these feelings on my chest
But I’ve given it my best
To let you go
I’ve- held it in for way too long
That's why I’ve written you this song
So I can finally let you know
That I can feel it in my bones
I can feel it beating in my chest
I can feel it my throat tonight
‘Cause I am
So desperate, so desperate
For you to see me as you did that night
So desperate, so desperate
For you to see me as you did that night
I’ve- got these feelings in my heart
They have been there from the start
They won’t go away
I’d- give it all to go back home
If you’d take me as your own
Like you did that summer night
Cause I can feel it in my bones
I can feel it beating in my chest
I can feel it in my throat tonight
Cause I am
So desperate, so desperate
For you to see me as you did that night
So desperate, so desperate
For you to see me as you did that night
If I could go back to that July
I’d make the best of you and I
I’d take a risk I’d take a chance
And realize the way you fell for me
And with you at your door
I’d look into your eyes and pour
All the blood sweat and years into
The greatest kiss to ever grace your lips
So desperate, so desperate
For you to see me as you did that night
So desperate, so desperate
For you to see me as you did that night
‘Cause I am

Chicago

Chicago
Chicago feels like an unstable dream that
Finally came crashing down
Before I woke, I sent you all my love,
You sent it right back like before
‘Cause you are on my heart,
and I am on your mind
And will we meet before the end?
Or is this just a wound to mend?
And we were almost more,
What were you looking for?
And will we meet before the end?
Or is this just a wound to mend?
Oh you must be, something strong to
Take as much as you did
Now I’m so confused
About what is left
I’m not right anymore about you
‘Cause you are on my heart,
and I am on your mind
And will we meet before the end?
Or is this just a wound to mend?
And we were almost more,
What were you looking for?
And will we meet before the end?
Or is this just a wound to mend?
I can sing for you, anytime
Isn’t that what you said that night?
Well I’ve strained my voice,
And wasted my days
For something that wasn’t real
‘Cause you are on my heart,
and I am on your mind
And will we meet before the end?
Or is this just a wound to mend?
And we were almost more,
What were you looking for?
And will we meet before the end?
Or is this just a wound to mend?

Sing! Sing!

Sing! Sing!
Sing! Sing! At the top of your lungs
Sing! Sing! At the top of your…
Sing, sing at the top of your lungs
Seems that I’ll be on this journey all alone without you
With or without you
Come, come won’t you take my hand?
Plenty of time to fill you in on the plan
Come with me
Won’t you come with me?
I promise to never leave you
No matter what you say or do
Sing, sing at the top of your lungs
Seems that I’ll be on this journey all alone without you
With or without you
Come, come won’t you take my hand?
Plenty of time to fill you in on the plan
Come with me
Won’t you come with me?
I promise to never leave you
No matter what you say or do
I promise to never leave you
No matter what you say or do
I will never, ever give up on you
I will never, ever give up on you
I will never, ever give up
I promise to never leave you
No matter what you say or do
I promise to never leave you
No matter what you say or do
I will never, ever give up on you

Everything Seems Deadly

Everything Seems Deadly
I can’t seem to find an acceptable
Reaction to the things I fear
Love and hate seem out of place when
Everything seems deadly
When I was young i met you for the first time
You made me want to risk it, To put it all on the line
You know that I fall for you
Every time you smile
I clung to reality
You ripped it from my hands
You stole my every moment
And froze me in your eyes, those eyes
I gave you all my truth
You turned it into lies
I’m afraid that prying eyes
Have somehow read my story
And in the end there’s nothing good
No sunset ride, no glory
When I was young i met you for the first time
You made me want to risk it, To put it all on the line
You know that I fall for you
Every time you smile
I clung to reality
You ripped it from my hands
You stole my every moment
And froze me in your eyes, those eyes
I gave you all my truth
You turned it into lies
Into lies

Street Lights

Street Lights
Give me courage to continue
This road you have me on
Give me strength to carry those who
Don’t have it to go on
As I walk these foreign street lights
Inside my jaded mind
Give me what I need to keep these dreams
From haunting peaceful nights
It’s not a dream my friends
It’s our calling
No time to make amends
We’re all falling
I see the road before me
Harder than the one behind
Let my feet find truth and justice
Let your wisdom be my guide
Your eye is on the sparrow
In poverty and wealth
Give me peace within, I’m wearing thin
Inside my failing health
It’s not a dream my friends
It’s our calling
No time to make amends
We’re all falling
Nobody out ther left behind
Come on baby we’re running out of time
Nobody out there left behind
Take my hand we’re leaving here tonight
It’s not a dream my friends
It’s our calling
No time to make amends
We’re all falling

If Only
Hold me now I’m falling faster
Headed towards my hearts disaster
Measure out your words with care
The weight of them will hang, in the air
I am on my own, but I am not alone
I will find a resting place, if it costs me all I own
Settle down and pay your dues
You can live this life, but you can’t choose
Keep this up and you’ll be lonely
Death will find you, oh if only!
I am on my own, but I am not alone
I will find a resting place, if it costs me all I own
No I never had a choice
Thought I’d always have a choice
No I never had a choice
Thought I’d always have a choice, a choice
I am on my own, but I am not alone
I will find a resting place, if it costs me all I own
I am on my own, but I am not alone
I will find a resting place, if it costs me all I own

Too Close For Comfort
How’s it ever gonna be okay
After what you said to me that day?
You took what you’d saved up in your heart
And spent it all away
Who was ever gonna heal your wounds?
You made new ones every day
I tried to do the best that I could
And then you ran away
How far will you run until you’ve gone
All the way around the world?
I won’t be here anymore
Well you hate me now me now, but you needed me then
(I was admired I was used)
It was close enough to be close to someone, like me
I know you say we can always be friends
(So generous are the words you use)
But I’ve closed the door on being close to someone, like you
Now there’s not a whole lot left to say
I looked at you, you looked away
I tried to find a place where we could start,
But you just wouldn’t stay
If you ever listen to this song
Maybe you’ll remember what went wrong
As for me I guess I’ll never know
I just let it fade away
How far will you run until you’ve gone
All the way around the world?
I won’t be here anymore
Well you hate me now me now, but you needed me then
(I was admired I was used)
It was close enough to be close to someone, like me
I know you say we can always be friends
(So generous are the words you use)
But I’ve closed the door on being close to someone, like you
How far will you run? How far away?
How far will you run? How far away?
Well you hate me now me now, but you needed me then
(I was admired I was used)
It was close enough to be close to someone
I know you say we can always be friends
(So generous are the words you use)
But I’ve closed the door on being close to someone
Well you hate me now me now, but you needed me then
(I was admired I was used)
It was close enough to be close to someone, like me
I know you say we can always be friends
(So generous are the words you use)
But I’ve closed the door on being close to someone, like you

Stand As One
I am going with you
Wherever you are, I’ll be there
I’ve thought this through, I know the danger
It’s just too much to brave alone, I’m here to share
I’ll be there
Do we stand as one?
‘Cause we’re stronger together
Do we stand as one?
‘Cause we’re stronger together
You seem so concerned
And you should be, because we could be, so much more
You’ve got a lot to learn
about what risk is, but that’s what love is, or so I’ve heard
So I’ve heard
Do we stand as one?
‘Cause we’re stronger together
Do we stand as one?
‘Cause we’re stronger together

Things We Couldn't Say

Things We Couldn’t Say
The invasion has begun
My life is disrupted
My friends have been displaced
We move to resist
This growing cancer
But soon they overrun
All we can say is…
I’ll storm the gates of heaven for you
You cannot see where this will lead
Though they come against you
In their lost and dying way
There is hope in things we couldn’t say
All I see is darkness
Stuck here in this prison
Awaiting trial
I’m sick and malnourished
I miss my love
They come for me
As they lead me away my friend whispers to me…
I’ll storm the gates of heaven for you
You cannot see where this will lead
Though they come against you
In their lost and dying way
There is hope in things we couldn’t say
Everything seems so empty
But there’ll be a new country
It’s for liberty
We’ve been set free
Set free
