I'm coming out of my wishing well
Where only echoes lonely hear my prayers I'm coming around to bending Cause my resistance been far too persistent I've come too far to force it so I'll watch it slide and land I could come on strong and willful but I'd rather watch it fall to the palm of my hand * And when I set it free like a feather it will be And when I rise to see it done like whatever it will be it will be I'm taking a breather baby From sitting on pins waiting for my sky to fall I'm taking up giving in So here's the wheel, I'm putting my feet up Take another look at me baby Today I'm taking on catastrophe I'd rather take it easy Than try to force what's on its way to me * Repeat We're only afraid if we pull back the blinds too far The light behind that we free will blind other stars But the truth doesn't blind it helps to see far So get ready to be Who you are |

I am a woman with a mission and a past to outdo
I don't need a gun I've got a microphone and a melody or two Just like the earth has spent a thousand years making up for what we do So have I for you Your seeds of misery have sprouted and they try to block my way The worst gets the better of you and you try to disarm me with an embrace Just like the heart that's spent a lifetime forgiving what is cruel So have I for you Well mama you can choose the rain but I choose the sun That's all I need to free myself I am a woman with a mission and a past to outdo I don't need a gun I've got a microphone and a melody or two Just like the earth has spent a thousand years making up for what we do So have I for you I have justified every wave in our ocean I have covered every range of emotion And just like the sea has spent eternity at the mercy of the moon So have I for you Well mama you can choose the rain but I choose the sun That's all I need to free myself This bird's gonna fly so high Watch my sky come undone Mama you can choose the rain But I choose the sun |

There are times in our lives
When our hearts fear our minds We can't afford to ignore What our hearts are beating for * My soul wants to go one way But my heart and mind playing a tug of war with me baby Cut to the truth and watch it bleed And in the wounds just what we need It's everywhere if we dare To trust the fall to lead you there * Repeat Let me out this cage I'm begging for mercy I'm being your slave What do you want me to see, my eyes are inflamed With the rage that's among us when we come of age There's nothing I don't know, just hasn't come to me yet We're only trying to remember what we chose to forget Everybody's a child that is open and free If we can trust ourselves to be indiscreet With our love |

My face to the sky
Dreaming about just how high I could go And if I'll know When I finally get there Taking off my glasses Sun pokes through my lashes And somehow I know There's a time for every star to shine (Chorus) Everybody got their something Everybody got there something Make you smile like an itty bitty child People keeping score Say better hurry up and get yours Cause somebody else Got your spot Before you even dropped Seek and you shall find Everything in your own sweet time I'll take my chances With what I believe is only mine Busy holding on So the roof don't fly Keep you from moving on So get it right Turn the tide over Like a love song Like a butterfly Believe if you hand it over You'll come out all right (Chorus) Illuminate the silly things Shed some light on all that's wrong Everybody need it Sometime Sometimes the only thing you got is what makes you feel like You're something else altogether You have everything don't need another reason to be something I've been on a ride and caught up in the landslide But I'm gonna spread my wings and fly... (Chorus) There's a time for every star There's a time for every star ... |

It's late in the evening
And you're breathing with someone else You come home to call me And I ask what you've been doing with yourself And you say nothing at all You say nothing at all Your flight is longer than usual And your conscience ain't no company I'm there smiling and warm I missed you so And can't wait to show you how I feel But you feel nothing at all There we were Never strangers before There was a light that shined on us But now there's nothing at all You should've taken a look around Before you laid that woman down You better get a hold of yourself Cause there's a woman here Who's willing to try Weeks go by And your mind seems preoccupied I feel a piece missing here But when I ask you about what's going on You say it's all me my dear So I thought nothing at all I thought nothing at all You should've taken a look around Before you laid that woman down You better get a hold of yourself Cause there's a man in you about to die With nothing With nothing |

Y'all know my steelo
What if I was the one to leave your sorry ass behind What if all these tears that're falling were yours instead of mine What if I was proof? all the wiser by the minute What if I knew your were making a bed and just who was lying in it Hope it felt good to say you love her Hope it felt good baby baby baby Hope it felt good to be with another Hope it felt good yeah yeah yeah And uhm... What if I just wipe the floor with your love without even thinking What if the thread you were hanging on had you strung out on wishful thinking I've become clearer since I came out from under the wrong impression I've been stuck on the detour baby heading in the wrong direction Hope it felt good to say you love her Hope it felt good baby baby baby Hope it felt good to be with another Hope it felt good yeah yeah yeah I hope it felt good yeah I hope it felt good yeah I hope it felt good for you baby I hope it felt good for you baby Oh you're killing me baby Alright Oh didn't it feel good baby I hope it felt good Oh didn't it feel good |

Like the day looks forward to the rising sun
Like the sun that everyday kiss the tide Like the bridges that leads you to the other side I'm everyday thankful that you're the one If you chased me baby I'd be still as stone Cause babe you bring my smile on like no other There ain't no deeper feeling I get nowhere than When I'm the skin beneath your hands You're some kind of beautiful in my life I don't need to hide my willingness To revel at the beauty that you possess Like every grain of sand that rolls with the sea Just like heaven you and Ii will forever be You're some kind of beautiful in my life |

I take you in and I hold my breath
Try to save the time that's passing by And if you came to say goodbye A thousand summers would never dry Every tear that touched my face And they don't laugh the way you do And they don't smile the way you do And their eyes don't shine the way yours do I love I love I love you just because Without the words to fall back on I'm afraid it's hopeless to describe And if I tried, I'd probably steer you wrong Cause a thousand phrases would never say How I feel today And they don't laugh the way you do And they don't smile the way you do And their eyes don't shine the way yours do I love I love I love you just because |

Mr. nothing's got a lot
He's got a lot to say He's good at being what he's not Gives nothing away Another day goes on by And he never speaks his heart He takes his chance with what he's got It's too late now to stop You push and you pull and struggle with the knot It's tying you up while you're fadin' You give and you take and take what you got Round and round 'till it breaks and You push and you pull and struggle with the knot It's tying you up while you're fadin' into your lie Mr. nothing is late He's running out of time He questions whether chance or fate will ever show a sign Looks to the sky above For a glimpse of what it means And never never never make Make no sense to him You push and you pull and struggle with the knot It's tying you up while you're fadin' You give and you take and take what you got Round and round 'till it breaks and You push and you pull and struggle with the knot It's tying you up while you're fadin' into your lie You push and you pull it |

Meet me in the stillness
Away from all this madness I'll give you a piece of me If you'll give me a moment To let you into the corners of my mind I looked into a stranger And found my soul waiting there It hit me like a siren To see myself everywhere And I saw that I knew him like the corners of my mind And like every other soul You feel the night come on hard and go slow And life goes on and on and it goes In the corners of my mind So shed your skin for me Let's pull back the covers There's so much about ourselves We're yet to discover So won't you let me in to the corners of your mind We pass on chance with our eyes to the ground It only takes a minute to see what's around But instead we choose to reside in the corners of our minds So I stand before you now Faulty but not broken Fragile like the break of day And sometimes sad like words unspoken But I'll let you in I'll let you in to the corners of my mind And like every other soul You feel the night come on hard and go slow And life goes on and on and it goes In the corners of my mind |
