Cause we all made lots of mistakes But then we've all learned from the ones we made And sometimes things don't run full course And then we end up stuck back at first I know that life can be unfair But if you give it your best You can take yourself anywhere You can travel to the moon You can aim right for the stars If you can't take your first step You'll never get very far You can travel to the moon You can aim right for the stars If you can't take your first step You'll never get very far Dreams can mend reality If you don't want it, set them free Cause we all deserve a second chance To take our lives and make 'em the best I know that life can be unfair But if you give it your best You can take yourself anywhere We can travel to the moon We can aim right for the stars If you can't take your first step You'll never get very far We can travel to the moon We can aim right for the stars If you can't take your first step You'll never get very far

Stop trying to sell yourself As something you will never be (Never be) You gotta work harder than you do Since you walked away from this Don't you come back now And I hope, I never, See you again Since you walked away from this Don't you come back now And I hope, I never, See you again You'll never find yourself Another guy as good as me One day you'll see you're such a fool Since you walked away from this Don't you come back now And I hope, I never, See you again Since you walked away from this Don't you come back now And I hope, I never, See you again You'll never learn And you're right people don't change What a waste, all I say What a waste, all you could be What a waste, all we see What a waste you are Stop trying to sell yourself As something you will never be (Never be) You gotta work harder than you do Since you walked away from this Don't you come back now And I hope, I never, See you again Since you walked away from this Don't you come back now And I hope, I never, See you again

Lovespell 04:16
I hold you close Unsure of what will be So I fight to keep my pose I'd like to be your need And I fall apart You don't understand me And I try to tell myself it's so wrong But this is what I see I could never forget you Not as long as I live And I will always love you You are my best friend And I know it is always Darkest before the dawn But we've gotten through so many nights And this ones almost done I wait, on you To make a move I miss your voice When I'm all alone Lately, I hate The way I feel So spare me from this Unhappy ending I could never forget you Not as long as I live And I will always love you You are my best friend And I know it is always Darkest before the dawn But we've gotten through so many nights And this ones almost done I hope you know That I love you so And I've so long This I hope you know Hope you know I could never forget you Not as long as I live And I will always love you You are my best friend And I know it is always Darkest before the dawn But we've gotten through so many nights And this ones almost done

I could stop time If you allow me to You say that you need me But I know you don't Don't say that you need me Why won't you just stay right here? Don't leave if you need me There's no need to pass the years Don't say that you need me Why won't you just stay right here? Don't leave if you need me There's no need to pass the years Light the fuse for which you've earned My hearts a bomb you've let it burn And you've let me burn Don't say that you need me Why won't you just stay right here? Don't leave if you need me There's no need to pass the years And if you really care And you really believe We could be together Forever Catch her if I can Hold her in my hand Fly away we can Catch her I can't Don't say that you need me Why won't you just stay right here? Don't leave if you need me There's no need to pass the years And if you really care And you really believe We could be together Forever

Step back and clear your head tonight Things are gonna be alright You might be scared and that's just fine You can still call eachother mine Open your eyes and see what you've got Don't you give up on him Good things don't come so easily Don't you give up on this Don't you give up on her Good things don't come so easily Don't you give up on this I know you're having a hard day But things are gonna be okay Open your eyes and see what you've got You're both more lucky than you think Do you want to trade places? Open you're eyes and see what you've got Don't you give up on him Good things don't come so easily Don't you give up on this Don't you give up on her Good things don't come so easily Don't you give up on this Don't you give up on him Don't you give up on this Don't you give up on her Don't you give up on this

Close your eyes your life will soon be gone (Never see past my disguise) These muffled cries you aren't the only one (Even when our hearts collide) Your eyes are filled with freight Blood saturates the ground tonight Lay down your life tonight I control all you It's cold tonight I'm gonna get my gun (I will wait til the shadows part) It's no suprise I'm killing everyone (To reveal my bleeding heart) Your eyes are filled with freight Blood saturates the ground tonight Lay down your life tonight I control all you Your eyes are filled with freight Blood saturates the ground tonight Lay down your life tonight I control all you

There was, was a time When you were only mine And I wish we could all go back And change the past And maybe I cared too much And maybe I care enough Will you stay with me? I'm such a fool for you And I hope you don't forget And I hope that you regret And I know the smile that you present Was never real And you might be just a fake And I might be just a fool What did you feel for me? I'm such a fool for you I know that I've wanted this I know that I needed this I know I'm just a fuckin' mess (Such a fuckin' mess) And I know that I needed you I know that I've wanted you But you are just a fuckin' mess I'm such a fool for you So here we are And I wanna believe you But I don't think we can be again And I can't explain this But I've always wanted this And I don't understand Why I fall for you I'm such a fool for you And I know that you'll never see me You'll never need me But I'll wait forever I'm such a fool for you

I tried to walk to the end To the last place To the further away To the end of my days And they said that there'd be no turning back Never listened to the washed up folk anyway They've only been to differen't places Where the rush is always strong enough But that's not for you and I Do you feel safety yet? Or are you empty enough yet? Oh no, oh no And I tried to build it up An entire empire for you To rest your head on But my shoulders hurt I'm so tired But I got lost instead I'm so tired But I got lost And they said that there'd be no turning back Never listened to the washed up folk anyway They've only been to differen't places Where the rush is always strong enough But that's not for you and I Do you feel safety yet? Or are you empty enough yet? Oh no, oh no

Subterfuge 03:40
I'll never see you again The way I looked at you that night I'll never have all of the hope That once filled my eyes (It falls apart) Did you even really care? (It falls apart) But I'll always be there And I was there for you Just step on me as you always do And I've given up on you But I'll always be there for you All of these years, when no one was around I was at your side Time after time for you I set aside my pride (It falls apart) Did you even really care? (It falls apart) But I'll always be there And I was there for you Just step on me as you always do And I've given up on you But I'll always be there for you Making bad decisions It all comes out of fear Making bad decisions I say It cuts like a knife Ruin your life And I was there for you Just step on me as you always do And I've given up on you But I'll always be there for you And I was there for you Just step on me as you always do And I've given up on you But I'll always be there for you

Nevermore 04:02
Time to let go of the past You and him could never last You'll never know Giving up it hurts the most And I think of you when I see the Coast I swim offshore Hold on tight Everything will be alright And though you've made mistakes Tonight I hope you don't give up so fast This very night could be your last Just take things slow Don't give up on this I hope I see you again Don't give up on this Don't give up on this Hold on tight Everything will be alright And though you've made mistakes Tonight Fair weathered friend what can I say I miss the past and the better days I dream of you Don't give up on this I hope I see you again Don't give up on this Don't give up on this I climb the roof to watch the dawn I've left that life but the hope lives on I let you go Hold on tight Everything will be alright And though you've made mistakes Tonight Hold on tight Everything will be alright And though you've made mistakes Tonight Hold on tight Everything will be alright And though you've made mistakes Tonight Hold on tight Everything will be alright And though you've made mistakes Tonight
