1. ONE BY ONE

He stands alone outside the blooming yard
All is calm there on the street
The shadows pass him hung right over
The pain on his face he knew he'd keep...
His hair is long, and it's twisted, it's twisted
Around the smile spread cheek to cheek
Another child, another soul, grabs a hold
To the metal that will end his misery...

[CHORUS:]
One by one
We stand beneath the sun
With arms high open wide
Two by two
He's getting you
To watch him as he leaves this life he knew

How much anger is set aside
As each one of us cries
Red light they come and they take him away
In the thoughts, he'll be better, some day...
Tied tight, can't see out your eyes
That he's sure to shine, sure to shine
In this deep dark, fucked up, played out, reality show
So, who's the man, with the plan,
Eating up all that he can?
Don't you see, don't you see...

[CHORUS]

Do you ever think that things are meant to be?
I know we all have our reasons why
And now the power of one human being
Has gone and changed so many lives...

[CHORUS]

One by one
We start to come undone...
Two by two
He's getting through to you...
One by one we stand, we stand, we stand, over,
over, you...


2. OUR LIVES

Is it love tonight
When everyone's dreaming
Of a better life
In this world
Divided by fear
We've gotta believe that
There's a reason we're here
Yeah, there's a reason we're here

Cause these are the days worth living
These are the years we're given
And these are the moments
These are the times
Let's make the best out of our lives

See the truth all around
Our faith can be broken
And our hands can be bound
But open our hearts and fill up the emptiness
With nothing to stop us
Is it not worth the risk?
Yeah, is it not worth the risk?

Cause these are the days worth living
These are the years we're given
And these are the moments
These are the times
Let's make the best out of our lives
Even if hope was shattered
I know it wouldn't matter
Cause these are the moments
These are the times
Let's make the best out of our lives

We can't go on
Thinking it's wrong
To speak our minds
I've gotta let out what's inside

Is it love tonight
When everyone's dreaming
Can we get it right?
Yeah, well can we get it right?

Cause these are the days worth living
These are the years we're given
And these are the moments
These are the times
Let's make the best out of our lives
Even if hope was shattered
I know it wouldn't matter
Because these are the moments
These are the times
Let's make the best out of our lives


3. THINGS WILL GO MY WAY

I came to tell you
How it all began
Nothing seems to work out right
I'm broken down again
So hold me now
And say it's not forever
Maybe someday
In time

Things will go my way
Things will go my way

I've pushed to get through
The crowds in twisted souls
Just to find I'm right back here
Doing what I'm told
So take my hands
Don't let me surrender
'Cuz maybe someday
Yeah, in time

Things will go my way
Things will go my way

For all the lies
I've tasted
Just looking for the truth
For all the dreams I'm chasing
Well what am I to do
When everything's against me
The answers are all wrong
I'm hoping that I'll find out
It was worth it all along

So hold me now
And say it's not forever
Maybe someday
In time

Things will go my way
Things will go my way
Things will go my way

For all the lies
I've tasted
Just looking for the truth
For all the dreams I'm chasing
Well what am I to do
When everything's against me
The answers are all wrong
I'm hoping that I'll find out

Things will go my way
Things will go my way


4. CHASING THE SUN

The sky is her blue eyes
Begin to open
The storm is upon me
But I'm chasing the sun
And she's got me down on my knees
Trying to crawl
Through all of the winter
Through all of the fall...

[CHORUS:]
She's like a sweet summer
A sweet summer day
And I can't let her
I can't let her go to waste
She's like a sweet summer day

I want to breathe in her air
I want to crash through the waves
Into her fields where
These memories are made...

[CHORUS]

Now there's no turning back
I'm lost somewhere deep inside of you
The clouds have been lifted
And you're breaking through...

[CHORUS]


5. BELIEVING

I'm one man to make a difference
I'm one soul all persistence
In a dark word, just trying to make things right
Choices we weren't given
Any heroes, and our decision
Is to stand up and fight for ourselves

[Chorus:]
To be free
Is all we want to be
When everything seems so far out of reach
But I know, no matter where we go
I'll never stop believing in me

Woke up bent and broken
Just to find that fate has spoken
All I call out I call out for change
For every moment that remains
For every sinking stone to find its place
Long before they're washed away

[Chorus]

We've been waiting for too long
We've been giving in to wrong
And we've been broken to pieces one by one

We're gonna know
We're gonna know
When the moment comes

[Chorus]


6. ANYTHING

I will be there
Always waiting
Waiting for you
To let me inside
Where your fire burns
In a city of angels
Just like a river rushing straight into the sea
I'm the one thing meant for you and you for me

[CHORUS:]
Whatever you want
Whatever you need
Whatever it takes, I'll do anything

And as you sleep
Eyes to the window
I'm watching you dream
Well are you dreaming of me?
So why can't you see
You're all that matters
You know if this earth should crack
I'll be your solid ground
I will be there to catch you when you fall down

[CHORUS]

If I have to crawl
Get down on my knees
Whatever it takes, I'll do anything

I'd take the stars right out of the sky for you
I'd end the world give you the sun, the moon
For all of time, forever loving you

Whatever you need
Whatever it takes, I'll do anything
If I have to crawl
Get down on my knees
Whatever it takes, I'll do anything


7. IF ONLY

What's the way of love?
Tell me your fiction
Tell me your lies
Say to me now, you'll never forget this night
I'm feeling emotionless
My head's so clear
My enemies aren't, the one I fear
You know your kiss confuses
This troubling soul
And I found out
That we're all breaking hearts
That we're all broken hearts

[CHORUS:]
If only love could find us all
If only hearts didn't have to fall
We can't mislead to make things right
So instead we'll sleep alone tonight

What's the way of love?
You are thinking I'm crazy
But you're blushing of lust
I've heard a lot of nice things,
but tell me which ones I'm to trust?
These walls we made are glass
And they have been known to crack
But until then
You'll keep pushing my way
And I'll keep pushing you away

[CHORUS]

If you want to take a chance
And try to make things right
You better have a reason to be loved
We all want something more
And it is worth fighting for...

[CHORUS]

And if somehow fate were in my hands
Would it be enough to understand
Why we feel lost in a world so small
If only love could find find us all...


8. SOMEBODY OUT THERE

Well the scene begins, a little girl is crying
And the light in the hallway is dim
And the sits right back, thinks of the reason
Why nothing will fall into place
She gets more and more curious with every day
More furious in every way
And she screams out loud,
"Why's it happening to me?"
And the answer is "It's meant to be"...

[CHORUS:]
Well she's on her knees
And begging please
She wonders if there's somebody out there
To make things wrong
To make things right
It might be
That there's somebody out there

She moves amongst the crowd,
The people they walk by
She questions why they'll have to die
If it's part of our lives,
So beautiful and precious
She knows that she shouldn't be afraid
Of all this...

[CHORUS]

There's times that she hates you
There's times that she thanks you
And hope that you might understand
It gets hard down here
So many things to fear
But it's all just a sign that you're near...

[CHORUS]


9. SURRENDER

So, here we are, all alone
As the wine makes you mine for the night
Soft is the way that you feel
And hard is the way that we breathe
In, out, we're moving
Around with the dirt on the floor
I know what I lack is devotion
And I can't fight this off anymore...

[CHORUS:]
We'll go surrender to the night
We won't look back at our lives
And when you sleep, I'll be there
To kiss your lips, to breathe your air
Right or wrong, it must go on
After this night, we'll leave it all behind

Two hearts beat as one
As I open my eyes
Well do you want me to keep going?
Cause I have already come all undone...

[CHORUS]

Now she's calling
And it hurts me to go
Away from my favourite addiction
There's no way that she'll ever know...

We'll go surrendering to our lives
When you sleep, I'll be there
To kiss your lips, to breathe your air
Right or wrong, it can't go on
After this night, we'll leave it all behind
But I'm still feeling
Drawn to you
In my dreams
So it seems
The man in me always
Gets his way
Never pays
For what he's done
I need you now love, love, love
I crave you now love, love, love


10. DREAMING IN RED

Once upon a time
Somewhere far away from here
I was drowning in a deep sleep
Got no ground beneath my feet
And there's so many faces
I'm New York and I'm Japan
There's so many things that I want to know
But I'll never understand...

[CHORUS]
Now I'm dreaming in red
Just drifting away
I'm dreaming in red
Come and take me away

I just got to get it right
Before I make it wrong
Cause I'm breaking out and rising up
While the world is falling down...

[CHORUS]

I see the sun behind the night, sky
One last moment before I say goodbye...

Once upon a time
Somewhere far away from here...

[CHORUS]


11. YOUR HOPE

When your hope is lost
When your hope is fading...

What would you do if you had
Just one little pill in your hand
That changed around all you could be
That helped you forget what you're seen
If all you ever wanted, was to let go...
(There are so many things that we just don't know about)

[CHORUS:]
When your hope is lost and you can't take it
Now you're come too far, to let them break it

You think it would be all right
To live someone else's life
Trust what you already have
Cause once you fall in, you can't turn back
If all you ever wanted, was to let go...
(I think we all knows what it's like to feel alone)

[CHORUS]

You've got to throw those thoughts away
Before you make a big mistake
You've lost control, been thrown off track
But now it's time, to take it back, take it back
You have to want to
You have to want to...

(There are so many things)

[CHORUS]

When your hope is lost
When your hope is fading
When your hope is lost...
