Regrets 03:29
I've done it this this time I know, this is the last time Baby I know! woah oh oh, this is the aftermath of the storm this is the part i'm forced assess the damage when the daylight, reveals what i did The Bridge is burned to the ground the one i used to cross so easily in a better time and a better man the one who used to have you The one that I love I've lost and in the quiet of my room, all I hear is you I miss your voice talkin' to me. yup! woah this is the regret of the words i used against you girl I was OUT OF CONTROL A bitter wind settles in but i still recall the summer we felt so free now we face a darker day but my heart still beats the same way it always has for you!! All I want is you! I know i've got a lot to prove (I always have, I always do!) All I want is you! All I want is you! I'll find a way of getting through, girl i know i've got a lot to prove to you. (proving stuff sucks. enjoy the song)

I'll go, I've kept you up so late I know, the early morning hangs over our heads i'll try to find the will to drive I'll fight, to lift my heavy eyes, though they're so tired There's no one else on the highway, I think the world is asleep wooo ooo ooo oo I rush, I'm always running late, these days i'm at, the mercy of the clock, like it or not And now I'm sharing the highway, I think the world just woke up wooo ooo ooo oo I left my heart at your front door and if you find it i will be yours I left my thoughts on a distant shore but you will find them they're yours!! I'm headed back to your highway I think the disappeared You know I'll always find my way i'll find my way back to you

Shake could you see it on me. Sing every songs a story Bare where it on our sleeves. Plead, don't you walk away from me Beat can you feel my heart beat. Drum rhythm in my body Play fool around with me, Bring you bring the life out of me Ch: You make me Careless! I'm losing track of all the things I have to do when I'm spending time with you. So i'm pulling you closer, and we drift away into the soundtrack lullaby to end the best date of my life!!! ooooo oo oo The best date of my life! Try, I'm trying to fall back in place. Clear, i'm trying to clear some head space. Fail, i'm tracing the lines of your face. Dream, i'm dreaming again for god's sake! Ch: You drive me crazy. I'm losing track of all the things i have to do when i'm spending time with you. So i'm planning my next moves, cause i know your someone i will fight for and pursue I would waste my time with you I would waste my time with you, I would waste my time with you, and I would waste my time with you So let's be careless for tonight forget about the time. Let's ditch our classes and obligations. Stay up with me tonight Let's be careless, let's have the best date of our lives….

If you're lost. If you feel the weight so heavy on your back If you're strained, if you're weary of your uncertain path the future task and what you're expected to do when everyone just seems to beg of something from you oh woah oh oh oh!! If you're tired. If you feel that sleep is just outside your grasp if you're annoying. Yeah and you're a ticking bomb just waiting to go off oh oh, your minds a crowded places these days oh oh, filled with deadlines with not enough time The future task and what you're expected to do when everyone just come on yeah all you wants some freedom, when life becomes a prison and you're just serving time oh oh oh oh oh oh oh woah oh oh woah oh oh I know your girl I'll do the best i can do if you needed help through all that weighs you down come with me please, I'll try to make you laugh, ease the pressures that you're under, i'll try to give you relief if you're lost, if you're lost, if you're lost… if you feel the weight so heavy on your back.

Alive 04:17
She, she get's me right. She makes it easier to speak my mind I, haven't known her long but she is all that I CAN think about Last night, I held her close. I found it difficult to let her go I'll try, to slow it down, to be more careful than i've been before (this is bullshit) She get's me right, She's got me feeling so alive. She's get's me right 2x oh oh I see the sun is coming out. I had my doubts. but now that the fog has cleared the sky, I'm feeling more alive (I always thoughts of the Beatles with these lyrics. easy to see why ;) Be, would you be my girl. You have everything I've been looking for (exaggeration, remember I haven't know her long, almost missed that huh..) I love your smile, the way we laugh so loud, and how free we are (truth, she was wonderful) oh oh, she gets me right etc.. I see that the sun is coming out, I had my doubts! But ow the fog has cleared the sky, i'm feeling more Alive. I'm feeling more Alive.. (more alive, more alive) I'm feeling more Aliiiiiive! (more alive more alive) I'm feeling more Aliiive! Repeat Chorus, God I need trumpets here!!!!!!!!!

conflict remains try as I may i've got a faste that won't go away I've got a vision to survey, my future plans they disintegrate, melt away I'm caught in the middle of all the I am and what my dreams tell me i'm caught in a pattern of doing what's safe and it's hard to break away conflict remains the war is wage i've got a tension that eats away what i thought was fate I'm caught in the middle of all the I am and what my dreams tells me I'm caught in a pattern of doing what's safe and it's hard to break away it's hard to break away See there's this constant image that i keep seeing in my head and i feel led to search for all that i desire which screams, and burns, and pulls me apart to face every fear, go on through the tears so i can't remain try as I may I've got a dream that won't go away.

Run 04:45
All you do is run All you do is leave me stranded when I bare it all, flesh and bones and I take the fall but all you do is dig me deeper All you do is tear me down and you twist it around to make me wrong when i think the problem here is you So why don't you just say it? why don't you admit it, you're too good for me isn't it what you're thinking when you try so hard to change me? to change me? so you can watch my silent death cause i've lost the will to speak for you you've pushed me way to far this time i gave it all, there's nothing left So why don't you just say it!? why don't you admit YOU'RE TOO GOOD FOR ME isn't it what your thinking when you try . so. hard. to change me… try so hard to change me baby to change me .. try so hard to change me baby So i'm gonna leave you, I've got every reason to go Goodnight I, i don't think i'll see you cause this time i've become the one who runs away.
11.
I want you to know that wherever you should go i'd follow those roads I am not afraid of the miles that separate you from my heart.. oh no.. if you should go i'll see you soon I won't let you blow on through like a breeze baby, don't pass me by.
12.
You will find me out. You will find my faults. I will try my best to hide but i'll wear it in on my sleeve with ease you'll find me out (a chris choir of angels) I will wear you out. and you can scream and shout I will try my best to change, but i'll probably stay the same, i'll waste, i'll waste your time I'm no good for you, baby i just need to figure out what's going on inside my head. you will try to reach me but i'm way to gone to see. baby i just need some time on my knees Jesus work in me..one day i'll be ready.. but for now i'm not the man you need, and i can't pretend to be . I'll just tell you now.. That i'm no good for you, baby i just need to figure out whats going on inside my head. you will try to reach me but i'm way to gone to see, baby i just need some time on my knees. I'm standing on unstable ground don't even try to help me out, I will wear you out , I'll wear you out. I'm no good for you, baby I just need to figure out what's going on inside my head.

Touch, I'm out of touch. how could I rush, how could I leave it all behind I'm out of time, I'm out of time, rip me away and what you'll find i'm unaligned it doesn't fit right, back to what used to be my life? Try for the girl that you knew, try ignoring the truth, but she's got a hold on you, you're running away afraid if you stay that your heard is bound to break but let it all go, you don't have control. back to the world you used to know and now, I can't fall asleep. I stay up and think, of the girl i used to know and now that's she's gone, i'm feeling lost, like a man without a home don't wanna give up! I gotta go back to the girl I used to know! now i'm going back to the girl i used to know! (she was the girl i used to know) I'm feeling lost, without the girl, without the girl, the one i used to know! she was the one that i called "home" the girl i used to know, the one that i called home, she was the girl i used to know.. she was the one that felt like home.

Drive (Demo) 02:50
'll Drive you away, let's roll the windows down, leave the world to face, not a reason i would stay. The rush of city lifestyle, we trade it for an open road. sky of crooked teeth, a grid of crowded streets, Say Goodbye. Turn the music up, let our voices ring, the rhythm of the road, the quiet of the breeze. I see leaves of God, my heart floods with hope. Los! come on get lost with me. Lost, wo oh oh, come on get lost with me! the further that we go, the more we leave behind, the worries in our lives now it's only you and I and an easy ride!! Go on through the night Lost! come on get lost with me. Lost, wo oh oh, come on get lost with me! There's nowhere we need to be, nothing we have to do Lost!!!! come on get Lost with me, Repeats.. credits

You (Band) 02:48
You, you are my song. That i lie, that i lie awake and sing You, you are the thought. That i lie that, that i lie awake and think When I fall, when i fall, I fall for you when i'm lost, when i'm lost, i'm lost for you. I close my eyes, I could see, I could see you in my mind. and I , still hear you say, I am yours and i know that you are you mine
