Same Direction

whenever i step outside, somebody claims to see the light
it seems to me that all of us have lost our patience.
'cause everyone thinks they're right, and nobody thinks that there just might
be more than one road to our final destination

but i'm not ever going to know if i'm right or wrong
'cause we're all going in the same direction
and i'm not sure which way to go because all along
we've been going in the same direction

i'm tired of playing games, of looking for someone else to blame
for all the holes in answers that are clearly showing
for something to fill the space, was all of the time i spent a waste
'cause so many choices point the same way i was going.....

so why does there only have to be one correct philosophy?
i don't want to go and follow you just to end up like one of them
and why are you always telling me what you want me to believe?
i'd like to think that i can go my own way and meet you in the end.

but i'm not ever going to know..........

Out Of Control

i've done everything as you say, i followed your rules without question
i though it would help me see things clearly
but instead of helping me to see, i look around and it's like i'm blinded
i don't wanna live like this so can you tell me?

where should i go? what should i do?
i don't understand what you want from me
'cause i don't know if i can trust you
or all of the things you've said to me
and i may never know the answer to this endless mystery
where should i go? what should i do?
i don't understand what you want from me

i feel like i'm spinning out of control, try to focus but everythings twisted
and all along i thought you would be there
to let me know i'm not alone but in fact thats exactly what i was
all alone and spinning out of control. out of control.....

What Happened To Us?

i thought it was too good to be true
i found somebody who understands me
someone who would help me to get through
and fill an emptiness i had inside me
but you kept inside and i just denied somethings that we should have both said
i knew it was too good to be true
'cause i'm the only one who understands me...

what happenned to us? we used to be so perfect, now we're lost and lonely
what happenned to us? and deep inside i wonder, did i loose my only?

remember they thought we were too young
to really know what it takes to make it
but we had survived off what we had done
and we could show them all that they're mistaken
but who could have known, the lies that would grow, until we could see right through them.
remember they knew we were too young
we still don't know what it takes to make it.....

we could have made it work, we could have found a way
we should have done our best to see another day
but we kept it all inside until it was too late
and now we're both alone, the consequence we pay
for throwing it all away, for throwing it all away......

Escape

another day goes without any change
the feeling we live with still remains
we're stuck in a whole and we're searching for anything to hold on to
there has to be somewhere that we can be safe from the lives we live each day
there has to be somewhere that we can be far away.....

we have to escape and i will go anywhere if you just lead the way
escape to a place where we'll be together, together everyday
we have to escape....

we could be living how we wanted to
instead of doing things we're forced to do
with no one to tell us that we should be going through what they went through
there has to be someplace that nobody knows, somewhere we can only go
there has to be somplace that we can be all alone.......

we have to escape.......

Just One

i wanna live, i wanna leave, i wanna open up and breathe
i wanna go, i wanna be, i wanna feel it constantly
gotta show, gotta say, i've gotta feeling that wont go away
i've gotta know if they got away, my opportunities....

just one chance is all i ever wanted
just one time i'd like to win the game
from now on i'll take the chance if i can have it
just one just one.

i need to think, i need to feed, i need to see if i still bleed
i need a place, i need a time, 'cause i need to step outside that line
gonna give, gonna take, i'm gonna scream 'til i am awake
i'm gonna push, i'm gonna pull, open up the door.......

and if i knew when the door was open i'd go, i would go on through
and i can say, when i do i'll never be the same, never be the same........

Lucky

i knew how it felt to be another one in need of someone to show the way
until you saw a part of me that nobody else could see and my life hasn't been
the same.....

you make me feel lucky as i can be....

before i couldn't get a break, never had a chance to the make impressions i want to
but now it falls right into place when i get to see your face then there's
nothing that i can't do....

no more dark days, only sun rays
no more hard ways with you today

you make me feel..........

From The Heart

there was a time when our dreams felt so real
just out of reach but not too far to feel
together we'd finally make then come true
'cause anythings possible when i was with you
but they kept on saying we'd never amount to anything....

all of the dreams we built up from the ground
they never believed them they just tore them down
we will rebuild them from the start, we will rebuild them from the heart

'cause once all we wanted seemed so far away
but with everystep it was closer each day
the more that we tried it was within our grasp
the more that they told us that it wouldn't last
and everyone said we were crazy for giving up everything....

The Reason

i'm not a perfect person. there are many things i wish i didnt do
but i continue learning. i never meant to do those things to you.
and so i have to say before i go, that i just want you to know

i've found a reason for me, to change who i used to be
a reason to start over new, and the reason is you

i'm sorry that i hurt, its something i must live with everyday
and all the pain i put you through, i wish that i could take it all away
and be the one who catches all your tears, thats why i need you to hear

i'm not a perfect person, i never meant to do those things to you
and so i have to say before i go that i just want you to know

i've found a reason for me, to change who i used to be
a reason to start over new, and the reason is you
i've found a reason to show a side of me you didnt know
a reason for all that i do, and the reason is you

Let It Out

this is ours, we made it with our everything
something real, as real as it could ever be
you gave me all of yourself, i gave you all of me.
now set it free from yourself for everyone to see!

cause' i'm not afraid not to let it out.
i'm gonna show you how i feel.
i'm not afraid to let it out.
who cares if you don't like it.

go ahead, you know just what you wanna do.
don't delay you feel it 'cause i feel it too.
take a look all around, you feel it in the air.
from the sky to the ground, i feel it everywhere!

Unaffected

there never seems to be, because what i believe, a moment i'm not trying
to show them who i am. why can't they understand the things that they're
denying?
they're denying.......

so what should i do, just lay next to you as though i'm unaffected?
and who should i be when they're judging me as though i'm unaffected?

a chance they'd never give to ever want to live the life that i am made of
there's nothing left to prove, my heart's forever true. what is it they're
afraid of?
afraid of.......

before they even saw my face, they knew that i was not the same
and decided i was not the one for you, for you...

so what should i do? i'm not unaffected
and who should i be? i'm not unaffected

Never There

i'm filling up inside like i need to open wide and pour my heart out to you
but i'll just get denied and all i wanted was someone to hear what i'm going
though...

evertime that i need you around you're never there, you're never there
because in my life is where i need you now but you're never there, you're
never there

you were supposed to see all the signs i left read in front of your face
you were supposed to be the closest thing to being me but you're the furthest away.
away.
thats because........

and i doubt that i will ever find out if there's a way to get out of feeling
all alone
'cause lately i've been thinking maybe that no one's going to save me
i'll do it on my own..........

Disappear

there's a pain that sleeps inside
it sleeps with just one eye
and awakens the moment that you leave
though i try to look away
the pain it still remains
only leaving when you're next to me

do you know that everytime you're near everybody else seems far away?
so can you come and make them disappear?
make them disappear and we can stay........

so i stand and look around
distracted by the sounds
of everyone and everything i see
and i search through every face
without a single trace
of the person, the person that i need.....

can you make them disappear? make them disappear........
