Renee Sandstrom

They tell you a good girl is quiet
That you should never ask why
cause it only makes it harder to fit in
You should be hapy, excited
Even if you are just invited
cause the winners need someone to clap for them

It's so hard just waiting
In a line that never moves
It's time you started making
your own rules

You gotta scream until there's nothing left
with your last breath
So here I am
Here I am
Make em listen
cause there is no way you'll be ignored
Not anymore
So here I am
Here I am
Here I am
Here I am

You only get one life to work it
So who cares if it's not perfect
I say it's close enough to perfect for me
Why should you hide from the thunder
And the lightening that your under
cause there ain't nobody else you want to be

If how your living isn't working
There's one thing that will help
You gotta finally just stop searching
To find your self

You gotta scream until there's nothing left
with your last breath
So here I am
Here I am
Make em listen
cause there is no way you'll be ignored
Not anymore
So here I am
Here I am
Here I am
Here I am


The world better make some room
Yea move over, over
cause your coming through
cause your coming through

You gotta scream until there's nothing left
with your last breath
So here I am
Here I am
Make em listen
cause there is no way you'll be ignored
Not anymore
So here I am
Here I am
Here I am
Here I am

So alone
And this room feels so cold
No one to care and no one to hold
Yeah the Lord knows
That I'm needing somebody like you
just like you
Can you see
The passion hurning in my eyes
Do you sense
The rush you give my heart
And if you knew
The secret way I feel for you
Would you come running
to me or would you turn away

At night I pray
With hope and faith
As I lay me down to sleep
I pray together we will be
And there will come a time
You'll be mine, all mine
And I'll be yours always
But until that day comes
At night I'll pray

Should I feel
There emotions inside me
Should I reveal what's locked up
in my soul
I'm so afraid
But it's something that you've got
to know
How I want
To touch you every time you're near
I long to feel
Your body next mine
And if you knew
The secret way I have for you
Would you come running
to me or would you turn away

If all my prayers were answered
Our hearts would be emaptured
We would fine our heaven
Inside each other' s arms
This lonely room would finally see
the sun shine through
But until that day every Night I'll pray
I'll get down on my knees
I'll get down on my knees and Pray...

Hello goodbye--do you wanna ride
You don't need to know where you're going
Take a trip through the old and the new
It's easy to see that you're jonesin'

Come fall into our journey
We'll raise our hands to lift you up
So stay awake it's early
'Cuz there's always more tequila

Let me take you higher
Wanna be the birdy on our wire baby?
We can take you higher
Let's fly high

Cruise the ocean then down to L.A.
The beautiful people are waiting
See and be seen it's only a dream
Feel reality fadin'

Come fall into our journey
We'll raise our hands to lift you up
So stay awake it's early
Don't you want some more teqila

No thinkin' while you're drinkin'
It just gets in the way
All the faces and the places
Yeah, they all look the same
But you're lucky like a puppy
So go on, roll the dice
Think high

Promise me that if you leave
You won't be coming back again
It hurts to see your face when you look at me that way
Don't try to take me in your arms
'Cause I don't thik that I could find the strength
To let you go, and leave me here alone

I need to break the ties that keep on breaking my heart
Not gonna hang on to the strings you tore apart

So make it easy for me, if you ever loved me
The hardest thing I'll ever do is say goodbye
Still loving you
So make it easy for me, if you ever loved me
Turn around and walk away
'Cause we've run out of words to say

You promised me our love would be
A fairy tale that everyone would wish for in their dreams
Well, where's my happy ending
Memories play in my mind, frame by frame
I see it all
How could I have been so blind

Say you're sorry to me a million times
But that will never ease the pain
That I will feel right now inside
You can try and make it better
But no matter what your do, you took away forever
When you told me we were through

Now that we've traveled through mountains
Now that we swam throught the sea
I'm sure we can go just a little bit further
As long as there's still you and me

Ahead I can see a few showers
Maybe we'll weather a storm
It's my turn to watch as you sleep by the meadow
I'll keep us both safe from all harm

Just as long as I know that you're here with me
We can crumble the mountains divide the sea
If we try than we can, if we stick to the plan
Of L-O-V-E as long as there's still you and me
You and me, you know I love you baby
You know I love you boy

Side by side, hand in hand we'll keep moving
Temptation might call out my name
You'll be the first to say go ahead and answer
And I'll be the first one to say

The magic that's found in dreams
Is the music you put in me
We'll build castles up in the sky
That's the power of you and I

Silence
Here in my room
A symphony in my mind
Shadows
Dance on the wall
Impossible to confine

Dreams of a happy day gone by
Leave me asking wondering why
I never saw it there in your eyes
I never wanted too much
I never needed too much
Then at the moment of truth
You only thought about you

Who will save me
Baby
When the walls come crashing down
In my room

Voices calling your name
My broken dreams on the ground
Fighting tears as they fall
I'm trying hard not to drown

Dreams of my window open wide
All the nights you crawled inside
How could you let me think
You would stay

I never wanted too much
I never needed too much
But at the moment of truth
The one you thought of was you
Who will save me
Baby
When the walls come crashing down
In my room

I never wanted too much
I never needed too much
But at the moment of truth
All I can think of is you
In my room

They say patience is a virtue
But I've been waithing too long
I believed in your promises
And it hurts to see I'm wrong

The one more tries, the sleepless nights
The countless tears that I've cried

Why should I keep holding on
When I know someone new is holding you
Why should I keep holding on
I gotta let go, cuz love's already gone

Stairways leading down to nowhere
Roads that never end
Why keep going 'round in circles
To break my heart again

Caressed my hair, then left me there
Alone but you don't care

I used to think that I should blame myself
But it wasn't me who was seeing someone else
Now here's a me you've never seen before
As you're watching me walk right out the door

Always trying to please another
Young girls wish that they were old
A petal wants to be its own rose

See life has such funny ways
But don't regret you came
See life is always changing
Yet life remains the same
So much to gain...

To win...to lose...to try
Oh yeah, it's all a part of life
To heal...to feel...to be real
Oh yeah, it's all a part of life

(Life, your life)

Empty pages will find words someday (someday)
A perfect person will disobey
You may never find true love
Why must one be taken advantage of...

See life has such funny ways
But don't regret you came
See life is always changing
Yet still remains the same
So much to gain

To win...to lose...to try
Oh yeah, it's all a part of life
To laugh...to cry...to never
Oh yeah, it's all a part of life
To learn...to hope...to dream...to cope
To heal...reveal...to feel...to be real
It's all a part of life

Oh no, not without a fight
