Verse 1
The other day my life changed
Will you still remain
Every part of you was made for me
All for me
Verse 2
Running wild among the streets tonight
Looking for an end that ain't in sight
Will our hearts withstand another blow
I dont know
Verse 3
This love is more than just a stepping stone
It's stronger than the loves I've ever known
Looking back on everything we've said and done
It's never been a choice to run
Chorus 1
Trying to get my feet back on the ground
And find my sound
When the world keeps on pushing down
Gotta fight the stirring in my soul
I think I'll go
Away from here
Verse 4
Breathing in and out through all the love and pain
Gotta make it through this rain
Life can hit us hard with all its might
But it's never a reason to let stop the going fight
Chorus 2
Separate your mind
See you what you can find
Don't push this away
Focus on today
Chorus 3
Separate your mind
See you what you can find
Don't push this away
Focus on today

Verse 1
Out here you can hear the cries
another gentle soul goes down
With love as my one and only defence
fear can only go so far
Verse 2
Lets open up
and it'll take us to a higher place
Let hate be gone
it's time for us to elevate
Chorus 1
Loaded my shotgun
Fire Away
A loaded love shotgun
Full of love and then I fire away
Bridge
Don't you let them tell you what is right and what is wrong
Just follow your heart
As long as you know that we're all one family
then help me sing this song
Oooh..
Oooh...
Chorus 2
Loaded my shotgun
Fire Away
A loaded love shotgun
Full of love and then I Fire away
A loaded my shotgun
Fire away

Cold Dark Night
03:26

|
Verse 1
Walking down the boulevard
His eyes full of tears and an empty heart
Thinking bout the losing fight
Out there waiting on a cold dark night
Verse 2
She doesn't even want to try
Another day, another way, they're all silly lies
An empty heart will slowly die
Out there fading on a cold dark night
Verse 3
Shadows in the distance on a route to collide
The only way they'd ever know is to open up their eyes
NO "Come here baby and let's get high"
Out there blinded on a cold dark night
Chorus 1
There might be
Something in her eyes, to free me
But tonight
Out there hazy on a cold dark night
They gaze upon each others' eyes......
Bridge
Then we danced all night long
To a happier song
Walked hand in hand
On a night with no end
In a dreamland we play
As the night fades away
Why dont we just try and stay
Chorus 2
There might be
Something in her eyes, to free me
But tonight
Out there hazy on a cold dark night
oh I said out there hazy on a cold dark night

Bad Timing

Verse 1
I started drifting to a place within my mind
The kind of place that only you know where to findddd oh baby
Leavin is never an easy thing to do
And it hurts so bad that I can't make it up to you
I guess it's bad timing
Verse 2
The sound of your breath as it breathes with mine
Creates a warmth that's hard to define
I tried to keep from leaving a mark too bad
And I will never forget all the times we had
Pre-Chorus
bad timing (don't wanna let you go)
bad timing (cause I love you so)
bad timing (I'm hoping it is true that)
good timing (might bring me back to u)
Chorus 1
Our love is real, but we're so young that I feel, that there is so much more of this life we haven't seen, and need to see, I wanna see what kinda man I'm gunna be
Verse 3
We blindly fell for a brand new thing
An undeniable connection within
Little did I know the fire it would start
The burning inside of a young girl's heart
Pre-Chorus
bad timing (don't wanna let you go)
bad timing (cause I love you so)
bad timing (I'm hoping it is true that)
good timing (might bring me back to u)
Chorus 2
Our love is real, but we're so young that I feel, that there is so much more of this life we haven't seen, and need to see, I wanna see what kinda man I'm gunna be
Bridge
Tonight I wanna see your face

In The Distance

Verse 1:
The clock wakes you up and you’re at it again
You know you’re not happy and you’re patience wears thin
Chained to a debt you cannot escape
You ask all the questions,
believe all the lies
Chorus 1:
You believed in something in the distance
It Consumed down deep inside
How in the hell did you wind up here
step off the path
There’s nothing real in the distance
The energy comes from the now
Shed all your fears, it’s happening here
Lets thrive together for today
Verse 2:
Try to ignite the spark that started it all
Doused by the judges that laugh when you fall
Chained to a life that you cannot escape
so many questions
Don’t believe all the lies
Chorus 2:
You believed in something in the distance
It Consumed down deep inside
How in the hell did you wind up here
step off the path
There’s nothing real in the distance
The energy comes from the now
So shed all your fears, it’s happening here
Lets thrive together for today

My Song

|
|||
|
Verse 1
Sometimes I fear what's inside of me
Can the world handle who I am
It takes a lot to be just who I wanna to be
I'm not going to hide my authenticity
Verse 2
So I step outside and and throw away my pain
And pave my path in the pouring rain
The storm is trying to knock me on my knees
And the wind is blowing hell through the trees
Chorus 1
This is my song and I'm gunna sing it
Gotta stand my ground if I wanna be seen
No shame no fear, I was meant to be here (after all these years)
I can finally find my way
This world is mine today
Verse 3
You're looking in the mirror at night
And wonder if they're gunna see what they like
Strip down the judgment and hate
And try to love yourself cuz you're alive today
It doesn't matter what the people will say
Because it's you-you gotta live with at the end of the day
Yeah It's my life I'm gunna do what I like and show the world out there that you can get this high
Chorus 2
This is my song and I'm gunna sing it
Gotta stand my ground if I wanna be seen
No shame no fear, I was meant to be here (after all these years)
I can finally find my way
This world is mine today
Chorus 3
This is my song and I'm gunna sing it
Gotta stand my ground if I wanna be my own
No shame no fear, I was meant to be here (after all these years)
I can finally find my way
This world is mine today

Verse 1
Under the star light
I can fly so high
Run my fingers through the trees
Dancing around the night
on an endless flight
far beyond the road I see
Verse 2
When I close my eyes with a gentle smile
I know that I am really free
With no wrong or right
and no sound or sight
We are all just energy…
energy…energy
Pre-Chorus
Oh yea, come and dance with me
the higher that you dance you’ll see
we are just energy
Chorus 1
And for as far as I can see
In the heavens where we find some peace
Where we are just really free
Fly and come dance with me
Verse 3
Here in the sunshine on a circle climb
over the clouds we rise
with no yours or mine
we are all one energy…
energy…energy
Pre-Chorus
Oh yea, won’t you fly with me
the higher that you dance you’ll see
we’re all just energy
Chorus 2
And for as far as I can see
In the heavens where we find some peace
Where we are just really free
Fly and come dance with me
Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh

I looked into her eyes again today
While she danced around as the sun went down I can't seem to look away
Will this feeling ever change
Or will the sparks that fly seem to shine another day

What good did I do?
To deserve such a beautiful soul like you
A love like this has gotta last

Those baby blue eyes that light up my life
No I won't forget your love
Yeah you look so fine

No I won't forget your love

Met a girl
From another world

Kindred hearts
Yea right from the start
