You don't even know, where I've been or where I'm coming from, at all Who was the one who said nothing's impossible, who was wrong Who was the one to even say at all, anything is possible
You ask me where I'm going, I don't even know myself I couldn't say 'cos it's undecided on which way I should go I don't know!
I've been invited but I just can't make it Got too excited and I just can't take it My fuel ignited, got too exited I've been invited but I just can't take it no more
(Solo)
How am I to show, what I'm feeling deep down in my heart, in my soul No other way but by a miracle - anything's not possible
I don't know where I'm goin', you don't even know yourself You couldn't say 'cos it's undecided on which way you should go Do you know?
I've been invited but I just can't make it Got too excited and I just can't take it My fuel ignited, got too exited, I took the message celebrating again
I guess it must have been at least an hour or more I must've had myself some powerful thoughts
I've been invited but I just can't make it Got too excited and I just can't take anymore
(Solo)
I've been invited but I just can't make it Got too excited and I just can't take it My fuel ignited, got too exited I've been invited but I just can't make it - at all
Down to the wire, on the end of the road Down to the wire, and the kids don't know Mother Nature's on her knees, and we're the reason of her disease Hangin' off the ceiling, climbing up the walls Crawling on my hands and knees to make it through it all
Now we can change or stay the same, one's the answer and the next to blame Solution is a world of change
If we're gonna make it through tomorrow
Down in the dirt and fallin' out on the street Crossin' the line myself (to make it to me) Mother Nature's still on her knees, and we're the reason of her disease Hangin' off the ceiling, climbing up the walls Crawling on my hands and knees to make it through it all
Now we can change or stay the same, one's the answer and the next insane Solution is a world of change
If we're gonna make it through tomorrow The solution is to make a change today, oh yeah
Make it, I said make it!
Solo:
Down to the wire, on the end of the road Down to the wire, all the kids don't know Mother Nature's down on her knees, and we're the reason of her disease Hangin' off the ceiling, climbing up the walls Crawling on my hands and knees, just to make it, just to make it
Now we can change or stay the same, one's the answer and the next to blame Solution is a world of change
If we're gonna make it through tomorrow The solution is to make a change today, okay
If we ever make it, now will we ever make it Through tomorrow-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow Through tomorrow-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow - ah!

Too many times, too many times payin' the price, just for the thrill Too many hearts, too many times, overkill So many times, double around, how many faces do reveal How many folks gettin' to be over the hill
She always told me things, like those weren't made of sugar and spice She always scolded me, "Don't let the same dog bit you twice" Well I, Lord I've just been fooled again
Mama she raised no fool - you did not raise no fool Mama I ain't no fool - I've just been fooled again Mama she raised no fool - you did not raise no fool Mama I ain't no fool - well I've just been fooled again
Too many lies, shame on the wives, too many cakes and eat it too Too many hearts goin' straight down the tube Hell of a dude, did it but don't have the time and the words for use Too many rounds, too many times, overuse
She's always telling me, "Just take your time, always think twice" Forever scolding me, "Don't let the same dog bit you twice" Well I, hell I've just been fooled again

Cry, cry an ocean No use tryin' to hide what's slowly dying in me, what's slowly dying in me
Now I will confess, was no second guess With all your love you left to me, it was a mess Once there was a time, was no compromising You (left so life can't do possess)
If anything they say is true, what goes around will be coming to you, I know Some night, there'll be nothing you can do, but
Cry, cry an ocean No use trying to hide what's slowly dying in me Cry, do you feel that it's over What you may fear is still alive, it's slowly dying in me
I cried, guess you're crying now (I'm blind to the end, I cried...) Tried to be everything I could, for you, from me, all I could be Tried to be everything I could, for you, from me, all I could be Tried, tried to be everywhere I could, for you, cried out my eyes for you
For you

Why do we lie, till (our face is hot and) blue How can I rely, countin' on you No I don't mind, long as it's true You got the old in with the new
It wasn't working for you, it wasn't working for me So how in the world could we stand and watch while this world bleeds
One more day, could be all it takes, to burn this damn place to the ground Down to the seeds One more change, we're gonna rip this entire place Up off the earth and split the seeds - except for you and me
Why don't we cry, instead of laugh in the face How can we deny we're destroying this place No I'm not fine - with what?
If it wasn't for trust, peace and harmony If it wasn't for love, tell me where in the world would this world be
One more day, we might rip this entire place Up off the earth and split the seeds - burstin' in two One more change, we're gonna take each entire race Turn it all around and split the seeds
Solo:
If it wasn't for land, if it wasn't for see All the trees, all the ocean, all the air we breathe If it wasn't for life and all of us Now tell me where would this world be, yeah

Ooh, will there be love to be made Ooh, isn't it left anyway
I thought you was dyin' to love me, not to love on a shelf Before you hurt somebody else you've got to help yourself Ooh, are you ready today, you'd better be, 'cos there's hell to pay
Chorus: All the lightning and thunder - out of hand Ready or not, now tell me what's your plan It gets to be all you can stand - rubberband You got the (feels like) like a rubberband
I thought what was easy, well it turned into hell Before I please somebody else I've got to please myself I said ooh, is this a game that you play, it might as well be anyway

Ever since Chicken Little said, the sky was fallin' down upon his head I told myself, what a wonderful world Climb a tree, headin' straight to the pond Get some pearly walks before they turn to frogs I told myself, what a wonderful world Puppy love are behind the law, before you know it it's a big old dog Left so suddenly, where's that wonderful world?
Just a kid growin' up on a farm, hardly knew what was right from wrong It's a jungle in this wonderful world Ever since Johnny went to Nam, he loves his men the way he loves (his arm) I convinced myself, it's an ugly old world
But seein' school, I was just a kid, someone had to go and shoot the president He wasn't sleeping when he's going to bed, so they said, so now he's dead Didn't know much but I knew it wasn't funny Everybody's crying like they killed the Easter bunny Nothing changes, never changes, killing in vain
Tell me what it's coming to, tell me what well we ain't gonna do If it stays like this we'll have nothing left to lose
Saw a picture and it ain't so pretty, from the West Coast to New York City I've seen the world, it's such a pity, we'll be here on our own
Ever since Chicken Little said, "Humpty Dumpty fell and broke his head" I told myself, what a wonderful world Ever since mom she reveal, the tooth ferry nor Santa Claus is real May be so, mama, it's still a wonderful world
That may be so, mama, still it's a wonderful world
All the games people play now, every night every day now Never meaning what they say now, never saying what they mean While they while away the hours in their ivory towers Till they're covered up with flowers in the back of a black limousine
Oh we make one another cry, breakin' hearts when we say goodbye Cross our hearts and we hope to die, except the other was to blame Either one will ever kill it, so we gaze and we make pretend Thinkin' 'bout things that might have been, oh it's a dirty rotten shame
Chorus: Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee Talkin' 'bout you and me, and the games people play Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee Talkin' 'bout you and me, and the games people play
People walkin' up to ya, singin' glory hallelujah Sayin' what the hell's it to ya, if we do it in the name of the Lord We're gonna teach ya how to meditate (Preach our hearts from teacher's faith) Put them on a hell of hate, come on, let's get on board
Chorus:
Solo:
Look around, tell me what you see, what's happening to you and me Got burning my serenity, to the neighborhood at hand 'Cos you're givin' up your sanity, or your pride and your vanity Turn your back on humanity, ow, when you don't give a damn, not a damn
Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee Talkin' 'bout you and me, and the games people play Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee Talkin' 'bout everybody, talkin' 'bout you, 'bout you and me (Ladandaladandadada) you and me, (ladandaladandadadee) I'm talkin' bout the games, the games we all play (Ladandaladandadada) ladanda, (ladandaladandadadee) ladandadadee All the games, talkin' bout the games people play (Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee) (Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee) (Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee)
The future's on it's way, the past is gone. Old & rusted with your busted bones. Break the crystal ball, you're on your own Wipe away the fear of the unknown. Chorus: Now here we go, on with the show Makin' our way. just livin' for today it's in our sights and the tome is right, for takin' a bow into the now.
Guilty of communication crimes. Was it just a binge, or was I blind. Overcoming opened up my mind. Don't let the things from the past eat you up inside. Chorus
Is it love that you break, or is it love that you make Is it love were breaking, love were making, or love just wasting time.
Well i'd never break your heart, now tell me would you break mine Re-wind and clean the slate, wipe away the hard times Well i never did forsake you, and i never would I got away from the common ground, just because i could There was a shadow, following me around Somehow i lost my way, that was then, take a look at me now
Chorus For everything in life, there is a reason Sometimes the reason i do, make it not so good
Verse 2
Seems like all that time away took me one step closer to my suicide Spun around like i jus got played, all caught with the users and the crucified A shining example of what you never wana be The fame of teachers drowning in a wishing well With no apology Me and my shadow, no-body else around, somehow i lost my way, that was then take a look at me now
Chorus
Short Verse
Feels like the time is right for getting back to even You are the reason i do, aint that enough for you!
Chorus
Short Verse
Feels like the time is right for getting back to even You are the reason i do, aint that enough for you Aint that enough for you You are the reason i do Aint that enough for you ahhhh, take a look at me now
Did you think it wouldn't show, you're here with me, but I'm so alone And now this house don't feel like home, I can't believe how much we've grown So far apart, so far away, you just can't hide something as plain as day I think it's safe to say, that's it's just no good
And I don't need you in my life, the way you cut me like a knife You burned me once, but now that it's done, you'll never burn me twice
Now that it's all been said and done, do you like what you've become Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed, and what a shame
I know you think you're always right, and just because, you've got God in your life But he don't appreciate the way you lied, he can't believe how hard you tried To take me down, to take it all, hanging around, and making sure I fall Then say it was me to blame, and I was, for trusting someone like you anyways
And I don't need you in my life, the way you cut me like a knife You burned me once, but now that it's done, you'll never burn me twice
Now that it's all been said and done, do you like what you've become Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed, and what a shame Now that it's all been said and done, do you like what you've become Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed, and what a shame
And I don't need you in my life, the way you cut me like a knife You burned me once, but now that it's done, you'll never burn me twice
Now that it's all been said and done, do you like what you've become Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed, and what a shame Now that it's all been said and done, do you like what you've become Now that it's all but over, you ha
Tell me why there so much pain today ‘Cause taking lives is for the gain or so they say I can't believe it but they feel this way And that's the way of the world Tell me why it takes a tragedy to see To wake us up and bring us down on to our knees With all the people suffering with diseases
And that the way That's the way That's the way of the world
As the world crashes down Heavens looking better everyday As the sun burns the ground There's got to be another way Is our god looking down And does it feel everybody's pain As the world crashes down Heavens looking better every day
Teach the children what means to love Show them why we can never give enough Lets work together we can rise above
And change the ways Change the ways Change the ways of the world
As the world crashes down Heavens looking better everyday As the sky turns the ground There's got to be another way Is our god looking down And does it feel every body's pain As the world crashes down Heavens looking better every day
(Heaven)
As the world crashes down Heavens looking better everyday As the sun burns the ground There's got to be another way Is our god looking down And does it feel every body's pain As the world crashes down Heavens looking better every day
As the world crashes down Heavens looking better everyday As the sky turns the ground There's got to be another way Is our god looking down And does it feel every body's pain As the world crashes down Heavens looking better every day
Once upon a day Love walked away Soon after I would learn Only never to return Feeling life was through Like it was to you Save me before I drown Put me up on dryer ground
And I meant what I said When I told you I'd never love like this again I wanna hold you in my arms Wrap my legs around your pretty self
If only words could explain I'd surely tell ya now How I feel about everything I'd never let you down And you better believe You can count on me I couldn't ask for better friends I'd never love like this again (oh no)
This love is real So much I feel it So deep inside As though our hearts are synchronized Since you became the color of my life I'll never make it in black and white Or pales or shades of gray You come around then go away
And I meant every word I said When I told you I'd never love like this again I wanna show you You're in my heart You're in my soul You're all I wanna know
If only words could explain I'd surely tell ya now How I feel about everything I'd never let you down And you better believe That you can count on me
What does that really mean? I'd never know for sure I don't know what to believe I only know what I'm feeling I'm going to a place I've never been before I just cant help myself Can't help what I'm feeling
If only words could explain If only words could explain If only words could explain If only words could explain Baby how I feel
