Wake Up! 04:50
I stand alone as always Waiting for time to move The evenings come with crashing blows So soothe Silently screaming at night Reflections echo over sounds of Sounds that make me drift deeper Reaching over I am over Wake up Mother look at me Wake up Father tell me what you want me to be Help me wake from this illusion Wake up Wake up I am perceived as if Dying today would change What you want to see or what you Want me to be Confused I see you pretend Not to watch me holding the crutch or the mask That covers the light And life unfolding I'm falling Wake up, help me wake from this Mother look at me Wake up, help me break from this Father tell me what you want me to be Help me wake from this illusion Wake up Wake up I will not disappoint you Following your every lead Showing you love and then Never knowing just when This will happen again Looking at this with new eyes Freeing and changing my own destiny You will watch me never Withdraw again Yeah Wake up, help me wake from this illusion ` Mother look at me Wake up, help me break from this confusion Father tell me what you want me to be Help me wake from this illusion Wake up Wake up Wake up

Old Man 03:38
My old man came and said There's no reason to lie There's no reason to cry She'll be home again My old man really bled Said we will live through this time Life can be so unkind Don't let' it fill your head And there will be a day when you will look the other way there will be a time when you'll believe what's on your mind Time went on away Took off like an airplane Left me standing in rain As I grew more insane And there will be a time when you'll believe what's on your mind There will be a day when you will look the other way Ohhhh Oh Ohhhh Oh Ohhhh Oh He's my old man My old man came and said It's time you looked at your life Stop hanging out every night You're too old for that I told him I was dead bored with the job I had Tell me what's so bad, I want more than you ever had Ohhhh Oh Ohhhh Oh Ohhhh Oh He's my old man Out on a limb I'm finding peace with myself Without greed, without wealth So tell me what's so wrong And there will be a day when you will look the other way There will be a time when I'll believe what's on my mind Ohhhh Oh Ohhhh Oh Ohhhh Oh He's smiled man

Why Do I Run 05:52
Why do I, why do I run What do I go for Am I a man struggling to survive I hear you breathing I am lost in your despair I feel you needing What can I do, I always knew Why do I Why do I run Where do I go to What do I run for I hear your voice I'm just a man I standalone I hear your breathing I am caught in your despair I feel you seething What can I do I hear you breathing I am lost in your despair I know your needing What will I do Where will I go What will I know You can't believe that there's no wonder in my eyes I'm getting past the promises when I realize I sing a song for you Ohhhhh Ohhh ohh ohhhhh Ohhh ohhohhhh ohhhh ohhh ohhh ohh ohh Why do I Why do I run What do I care for it Am I man, struggling to survive I see no wonder in your eyes I see no wonder in your eyes Tell me what am I to do When I am seeing right through you What do I say, I'm just a man There's no wonder in your eyes

Sweet Somebody Ahh Ahh Ahh I've been holding on, thinking about the right thing to say How to carry on, living a life beyond today The look in your eyes the worst is behind Tell me things will be fine Hopes where I go but I don't know It's on my mind Home is where I know I belong But nobody knows Sweet Somebody Ahh Ahh Ahh Sweet Somebody Ahh Ahh Ahh I've been holding on, thinking about the right things to do How to carry on living a life I can with you I've been standing here, making decisions I can't say Go, Please believe I don't want to stand in your way Home, is where I belong The pressure is on, but it's you Your Sweet Somebody Ahh Ahh Ahh Sweet Somebody Ahh Ahh Ahh Sweet Somebody Ahh Ahh Ahh Sweet Somebody Ahh Ahh Ahh So, let the cards be shown You can't take it, you're going to crack Know, the dice are rolled It's' double or nothing You can't go back I've been driving dreams, of a better time I'm losing faith Even though that I know your mind, I'm fighting to stay When you're Sweet Somebody Ahh Ahh Ahh Sweet Somebody Ahh Ahh Ahh You're my Sweet Somebody Ahh Ahh Ahh Sweet Somebody Ahh Ahh Ahh Sweet Somebody Ahh Ahh Ahh

Natural Fact 05:00
Did you ever think we could be so close Did you ever know we could grow like a rose Did you ever have a feeling like this coming on Did you ever know if this was right or wrong Well I don't expect you to feel The way I do, my love is real I don't expect you to act, anyway My love is a natural fact Oooh yeah It's a natural fact Oooh natural fact My love is a natural fact Did you ever dream we could sail far away Did you ever think we could be alone for one day Did you ever understand the dreams that you had Was I apart or was I just there to hold your Well, I don't expect you to feel The way I do, my love is real I don't expect you to act, anyway My love is a natural fact Did you Hope for love beyond friends? Did you ever stop, wonder where it starts and where it ends Can you tell me what you think I need to know Because I never thought I could love you so Ooohh yeah It's a natural fact Oooh natural fact My love is a natural fact

All My life 05:36
I've been seen around this town, many nights for many years I've held my thoughts emotionless, find it hard to hide the tears I wake to a summer morning, look through the glass to another day The lands are all full of color, skies have opened up to say All, all my life, all my life I never hurt no one All, all my life, all my life I've been reaching for the sun For insight take generations, in the past and up til now We can't deny the dangers in this world that we have found I've chased down a million reasons, why there could be so much neglect I'm a part of a moving system, tell me what does this reflect? All, all my life, all my life I never hurt no one All, all my life, all my life I've been reaching for the sun A pack of wild dogs enjoying so much cash Wrapped up in such luxuries Tipping cigarettes and turning to ash, infecting you and I with their disease The government so strong, it makes us weak Broken promises nuclear freeze Some people say, that sounds so corny But what about the children and the trees? The cities big, the cities strong With an appetite, to prove you wrong Chasing creatures out with concrete Leaving you and I to pay the rent Ohh, Ohh, Ohh I still believe I will believe Ohh, Ohh, Ohh Time will make us believers It will be too late to turn back We must make a radical change Before our colors turn to black Doesn't matter your religion, race or creed, It's irrelevant All my life I've tried to be so strong When will the struggle end? All, all my life, all my life I never hurt no one All, all my life, all my life I've been reaching for the sun All, all my life, all my life I never hurt no one All, all my life, all my life I've been reaching for the sun Ooh
