There's so many locked doors in my way And I can't find my keys And even every window has a shade So how am I supposed to find my way? It's all I ever say It's all I ever say What about me What about me What about all the possibilities What about me What about me Maybe I'm not tall enough to reach The miners took a dug a hole for me But kept their lights on Even when they left I still could see But now I don't know if I believe Is it real or is it a dream? Real or is it a dream? What about me What about me What about all the possibilities What about me What about me Maybe I'm not tall enough to reach What about me What about me What about all the possibilities What about me What about me Maybe I'm not tall enough to reach

On the southern shore of the world in a place that I've never been to They sleep tightly and turn their heads toward the sea It's not the same here at all the sun still hangs in the distance but it knows its destiny and soon it will be gone Say goodbye to the light and at 8:14 am we'll rise Say goodbye to the light and at 8:14 am the sun will shine Well this is a change in what I know and I can't believe it either but sometimes it's best to wait out the storm and stay the night Say goodbye to the light and at 8:14 am we'll rise Say goodbye to the light and at 8:14 am It fell apart again just when I thought that I had it won It fell apart again and I need the night Say goodbye to the light and at 8:14 am Say goodbye to the light and at 8:14 am and at 8:14 am

When he walked into the room he felt the whole world start to shake And an earthquake would have made sense if not for his spot on those great plains If he could only leave for for good then he could calm his weary head But as for this time it's too late and this is what he said I'm as blue as the sky today The heavens opened up and poured down right on me Blue as the sky today The clear blue skies can still bring me rain She said that there's a lot of things that she can't comprehend And all she ever wanted was to wake each day and not feel so damn tense If she could only leave for good then she could calm her weary head but as for this time it's too late and this is what she said I'm as blue as the sky today The heaven's opened up and poured down right on me Blue as the sky today The clear blue skies can still bring me rain I'm as blue as the sky today The heaven's opened up and poured down right on me Blue as the sky today The clear blue skies can still bring me rain The clear blue skies can still bring me rain The clear blue skies can still bring me rain

It wasn't long ago that you and I first picked our favorite song And all I know It helped us grow The song it said those things and when the words would fail the music would speak It spoke to me and told me just exactly what to say You're everything that I could need The air that i will use to breathe The better half of all I'll be You're everything Now we share it all Our love, our hope, our dreams both big and small Our bond is strong Let me show you just how strong we are You're everything that I could need The air that i will use to breathe The better half of all I'll be You're everything It wasn't long ago That you and I first picked our favorite song And all I know You're everything that I could need The air that I will use to breathe The better half of all I'll be You're everything You're everything You're everything

Lay your hands on top of the keys Play my part for me when I have forgotten how Sing a melody that's soft and sweet Sing my part for me when I have forgotten how Well if this moment's a time machine then take me back I'll gladly leave and I'll be on my way to remembering better days Well if this moment's a time machine then take me back I'll gladly leave And I wont be awake until they call my name When sorrow has long been a lasting friend Your soul's held up by a thread It feel's like you've forgotten how Grab on hold tightly and defend Your soul held up by a thread It feel's like you've forgotten how Well if this moment's a time machine then take me back I'll gladly leave and I'll be on my way to remembering better days Well if this moment's a time machine then take me back I'll gladly leave And I wont be awake until they call my name Another time has come With the world you are through Go lock yourself in your room Return when you've forgotten how Well if this moment's a time machine then take me back I'll gladly leave and I'll be on my way to remembering better days Well if this moment's a time machine then take me back I'll gladly leave And I wont be awake until they call my name Until they call my name

The people they create all the confusion and the haze It hangs invisibly around every neck Though we may never find the answer is wearing a disguise It hangs invisibly around every neck And though you'll always be blind Well that's fine Go ahead, and tell me I'm dark tonight Go ahead, cause I feel what you'll never find Go ahead, that mask it fits just right Go ahead, see the glass half full again Take another step and watch the rocks fall over the edge I'm sure you believe that you can fly Well now take your leap remind me that you can do anything I'm sure you believe that you can fly And though you'll always be blind Well that's fine Go ahead, and tell me I'm dark tonight Go ahead, cause I feel what you'll never find Go ahead, that mask it fits just right Go ahead, see the glass half full again Go ahead, and tell me I'm dark tonight Go ahead, cause I feel what you'll never find Go ahead, that mask it fits just right Go ahead, see the glass half full again See the glass half full again See the glass half full again See the glass half full again See the glass half full again

Well I've been around here way too long Been trying to find my home within these walls And I tried to be somebody else but life won't lend itself to what I want You told me I was never meant to stay And the trouble I feel is just part of the game But I feel like I'm wasting away So please can you show me Just why I was meant to stay I stepped off the trail and looked for more A place I could be restored but now I'm lost And I wonder just how to pick me up with just my sort of luck I cannot tell You told me I was never meant to stay And the trouble I feel is just part of the game But i feel like I'm wasting away So please can you show me Just why I was meant to stay So please can you show me Just why I was meant to stay

She cries outloud Heaven help me now In a moment they went away How could they, how? No more goodbyes No more hellos No more I love yous I told you I hope you know It's cold tonight here in this city A cold like I've never felt before It's cold tonight here in this city But if my heart feels like this city then I'll move out She said now there's a choice To live or die I'm not afraid of death more afraid of life Then she heard a voice Saying don't let go There's room for you up here, still more time below It's cold tonight here in this city A cold like I've never felt before It's cold tonight here in this city But if my heart feels like this city then I'll move out It's cold tonight here in this city A cold like I've never felt before It's cold tonight here in this city But if my heart feels like this city then I'll move out But if my heart feels like this city then I'll move out My heart feels like this city so I'll move on

It's the strangest thing When I see your face It's the only thing that I can't erase All those feelings are gone Flew away into space And now there's not much left to say Forget the love Forget the hate Forget the smile upon my face Forget you knew me at all When you're done with the lies You can let me know And paint that picture so clear That it will have to show Cause fate has taught me the truth And now it's time to go Like a breath in the night disappears in the cold Forget the love Forget the hate Forget the smile upon my face Forget you knew me at all

As he walked through the doorway he said Well I'm never going back To the hell of the heat and the sand and the sun beating on my back It'll be another year they said now before you can go back home Back to the world you thought that You thought that you used to know But all this mess is all I cant Yes all I can't get past Hold on don't take that one last step This bridge will never mend itself My life with you is all that's left Don't leave me behind to find myself As she walked through the doorway she said I can't take much more of the hell of the bills and the chores and the feeling I'm all alone But all this mess is all I cant Yes all I can't get past Hold on don't take that one last step This bridge will never mend itself My life with you is all that's left Don't leave me behind to find myself So how could you understand The memories that cloud the soul of this man Well they thought that since he's home now everything would be fine But the war doesn't change just the fighters, no it's changes everyone's life Hold on don't take that one last step This bridge will never mend itself My life with you is all that's left Don't leave me behind to find myself

A pool of a thousand dreams Washed away by the rushing sea So who am I to believe Another lonely night The still and the cold of no end in sight So who am I to believe Since forever I've wanted to be Something that matters more to me Since forever I've wanted to be Something that changes more than you and me There's no lines drawn in the sand No air traffic control to tell me where to land So who am I to believe I know it's not too late but the hourglass shows me another wasted day So who am I to believe Since forever I've wanted to be Something that matters more to me Since forever I've wanted to be something that changes more than you and me The truth is I know I'm scared of leaving this place And having not shared enough to a world in dismay Since forever I've wanted to be Something that matters more to me Since forever I've wanted to be something that changes more than you and me A pool of a thousand dreams Washed away by the rushing sea So who am I to believe

When the clock strikes midnight today I will still be locked inside this maze It's not a question of do I need a change But more like how the hell do I escape Maybe there will be a day When maybe the past will be erased Maybe I won't have to say Maybe Maybe You left me here to fight it on my own A battle not easily won against this foe With guns blazing he destroyed my hope Took me prisoner and won't let me go Maybe there will be a day When maybe the past will be erased Maybe I won't have to say Maybe Maybe I am at the end of the rope And I am barely holding on Yes I am at the end of the rope A knot can only hold so long Maybe there will be a day When maybe the past will be erased Maybe I won't have to say Maybe Maybe

took a brick out of the center of our wall and i relied on the others to hold on but I know better it's like skating upon the thin ice it's already too late when a hole arrives but I know better you helped me open my eyes please forgive me for all that i've done only thought of myself for so long i'm just trying to give you something more more than just all of my love my intentions were blocked from your view but the ones who are closest feel my pain too I should have known better you helped me open my eyes please forgive me for all that i've done only thought of myself for so long i'm just trying to give you something more more than just all of my love
