I can't help waiting deliberating, depths of age pale away and I am trying to rediscover the wide-eyed beauty of the first glance
and you can take what's mine, add to the weight of time with cold eyes and a furrowed brow and you can take what's mine, turn back the hands of time but for young, time is the sun
from where does fear spawn, from the older ingrained scorn does it mean that my mind won't cry and I can't believe that you're happy to bleed from your cold eyes
each year I peel back my skin and fleshy pink appears yet a harder layer grows, protect uncertainty young grow fear to love, resist my resistance reluctance to return a smile
from where does fear spawn from the older ingrained scorn does it mean that my mind won't cry and I can't believe that you're happy to bleed from your cold eyes
Freedom flight fancy, Fresh home, love feeling escape, truth, happiness dreaming and knowing
I've got to keep the flow I'm ready to know, about magnolia Focus on the garbage art News of a shock tremor long may be due
Don't let them try and change you 'Cause they only want to own you Don't let them try and change you For you are beautiful
Ageless beauty I know your feeling Love is, this is our time To break through, this madness
Absolutely blown away What do we have to say? What are we looking for? How do we escape the indescribable truth that is so real? Stranger than fiction
Don't let them try and change you 'Cause they'll only want to own you Don't let them try and change you For you are beautiful
I hope you find, everything you're looking for I hope you find, happiness outside your door And everytime, that you fall down on your knees Is just a part of everything you need to see
Don't let them try and change you 'Cause they only want to own you Don't let them try and change you For you are beautiful
Scrounging through the shit to find a place to call home To settle in, set up shop, pull out your wares and play To sing a song to you, for you and for me I need to remember what I gain and why I'm here The sign says gents but I don't see none here The sign says ladies but I'm a lady feeling alone Everything I need to survive is feeling threatened
I don't want you to make me jaded I don't want to give you the power to make me hot and cold
I do it because I want to have my say, give it up for you But you chose to throw it back at my face with your distortions I feel sorry for you, but you feel sorry for me Seeing that power sometimes lies in the hands of the weakest, the lowest kind The power to make me scream when I only want to whisper The power to make me punch when I only want to caress you
[Chorus] I don't want you to make me jaded I don't want to give you the power to make me raise my voice I don't want you to make me jaded I don't want to give you the pleasure of seeing me cry I just want to find a beautiful face And remember why I am standing here I just want to be at that beautiful place And remember why we're standing here
I speak what I feel and then it's judged by you But when I judge you, you get pissed off I'm no different to you I do have the time to listen, I have the time to care When I've had my say I'm happy to listen to yours Just grant me the time to let you have your monies worth I'm so jumpy, I'm on edge, I'm ready to bite at your chance
Waking to the silence of this quality The one the angels decided to hand down For the beauty of the deeds that are forgiven I surrender and I lay me down
For Michael and Gabriel who hold me And the wings that make the silence of that sound
[PRE-CHORUS:] And for the tender touch that comes when I stop to listen
[CHORUS:] I surrender, I lay me down For the letting go of all I hold so tightly Releasing clouds and silver linings of my mind Finding ways to see all of my horizons
For mothers and fathers who may guide For the courage to breathe the words of fire and love And looking out with freedom to abandon
[PRE-CHORUS:] And for the tender touch that comes when I stop to listen [CHORUS:] I surrender, I lay me down Breathing with the silence of this quality The grace the angels decided to hand down For the beauty of the deeds that are forgiven I surrender and I lay me down
[CHORUS:] I surrender, I lay me down I surrender, I lay me down
> When I think back to all the times that we've been through up to now There are so many things I wish that I could change Guilt and fear and anger all tied up in stupid chains I want to crush up all that hurt and see you smile again Growing with love, finding the right way to feel Can you forgive the foolish ways I've been? I want to learn from the past but I need to move on and recapture the beauty that brought us here When we started on this road, we never thought of what might be How the love we shared so free was brought into question I'm sorry for the times I hurt you and made you cry but here we are, still standing here getting stronger yet this time Growing with love, finding the right way to feel Can you forgive the foolish ways I've been? I want to learn from the past but I need to move on and recapture the beauty that brought us here Say it out loud, we're breaking down the walls of our fears And after all is said and done We have shared more than most ever get the time, time to spend with their loved ones We have grown much wiser, now the storm is over. I never thought it would happen I never thought this could happen I never thought... Growing with love, finding the right way to feel Can you forgive the foolish ways I've been? I want to learn from the past but I need to move on and recapture the beauty that brought us here
Isn't it funny how you never really screamed at my face, but your anger so unspoken and unchannelled permeates my essence to the point where I, Don't want to see you hear you, be anywhere near you, you probably think I'm threatened by you but your illusionary power doesn't threaten me, Actually I think it's kind of funny that you create an illusion that is a mirror, I don't appreciate you and I know that that surprises you I suppose you see that those who follow their heart always win, those with integrity have won the match before it's begun
So rather than being kicked around, I'm going to kick you to the curb So rather than being pushed around, I'm going to push you away first So rather than trying to protect you, I'm going to cover my bases first So rather than trying to open my heart, I'm going to lock it with a key So that only the special ones, so that only the special ones, can ever get through to me
Some can see beyond the barrier of threshold whereas others can't see beyond their sculptured mould, you could offer me nothing, you could offer me nothing that I need Do you think I'm asking too much? A kind of respect and trust that shouldn't even be questioned, how can I open my heart with dishonesty sitting next to me? I've honoured your honour to the point of embarrassment, but innocence in the hands of the guilt-free is kicked to, is kicked to the curb I was ashamed of my innocence, I was ashamed of my innocence but now with clarity I see that your bullshit is just not worthy of me
So rather than being kicked around, I'm going to kick you to the curb So rather than being pushed around, I'm going to push you away first So rather than trying to protect you, I'm going to cover my bases first So rather than trying to open my heart, I'm going to lock it with a key So that only the special ones, so that only the special ones, can ever get through to me
I don't want to be angry. I don't want to be angry. I don't want to be angry. I don't want to be angry.
This is not worthy of me and now with clarity I see that I can walk away, I can walk away
I ride the time, it unfolds a new day, another time, this world would fade away To find true love, is like no other joy, our choice is here
Be happy for today, be happy for today
The passage won, could maim a loser's fate, the bombs will run, I wish love could have its day A heart that soars, above the worldly haze, has found the cure
Be happy for today, be happy for today Be happy for today, be happy for today
Soldier of fortune, runs away, to take up arms against his brother When does this ever stop? We're still in the playground except the toys are hurting us
You're waiting for it now You're waiting for it now Here it comes
So far to go, but we keep pushing on So far to go, but we keep moving on So far, keep moving on...
I see love and beauty all around, I also see the sadness that's embedded in your frown, I wonder why you choose not to talk to those around, I sense a fear of lifting heavy feet, higher than you want to, I just want to believe your truth.
You stand there but you do not cast a shadow, you walk away with every word you choose not to say. I suppose that moving on paints a new colour for each day, I don't like to see dreams put on the shelf, to deal with on that one day, I just want to be happy for you.
'Coz I only have one second, this minute today. I can't press rewind and turn it back and call it now, and so this moment, I just have to sing out loud and say I love I like and breathe in now. and say I love I live and breathe in now.
I move on holding on to what I learn, it's time to move on from the notion that the whole world's against me break free of shackles that formed young, time free in now, and now I know it's not all up to me, I can count on another so move on lighter and be free.
'Coz I only have one second, this minute today. I can't press rewind and turn it back and call it now, and so this moment, I just have to sing out loud, and say I love I like and breathe in now. and say I love I live and breathe in now.
I believe in for today I just want to know that you're okay cause I believe in breathing just for today I just want to know that you're okay
'Coz I only have one second, this minute today I can't press rewind and turn it back and call it now and so this moment, I just have to sing out loud and say I love I like and breathe in now and say I love I live and breathe in now and say I love I live and breathe in now
Polyserena, I'm starving to feed you, I'll be back from what I've been to Not sad, not crying, In the moments of your hiding, you'd swear that I was screaming
Polyserena, since your leaving, lit rooms are darkly silent Right now I am standing right here between whispers of your violence You'd swear that I'm believing
Chorus Poly, you decadent deceiver, In the mirror you don't reflect but I feel your hot breath In the coals of the fires of all that's left
Polyserena, it's never over it's glimmering in the windows, of the corridors of gold Not walking backwards anymore For Serena you know all
Chorus Colours flood into patterns Churn and twist around, what matters. Where's a love to believe, to bleed, to drink to? Through your brindled smile, Poly, I still trust you.

This is not worthy of me and now with clarity I see that I can walk away, I can walk away
It's four past the shaking hands and the house is shouting and the wide ocean's smile is two mountains away
If the burning laughter refracts out the window and too many threads are pulled and leaves a mark on your night-face as red as Shanghai in Autumn Moon
If the frozen-flat birds can thaw to soar north against the wind and stare across this great wide land with faith and feather You'll know I'll be there - my love
If I'm drowning serenely and the browning and the torn picture of your unshakeable smile breathes life into my eyes I'll always be seeing you - my love
When the brush is out of paint and we stroke the gaps full of silence and restraint and the canvas starts to peel that's when, thats when, I'll take your hand
I wanna take you home To my place Share my dreams and my fantasies I can't wait I wanna show you things That you have never seen before Girl I hear you crying Crying out for more
(Chorus:) Talk to me, talk to me Am I doing this right? Talk to me, talk to me Are you feelin alright? I've been waiting for this my whole life And here you are tonight I've been waiting for this my whole life And I can see it in your eyes Are you ready to stay up all night? To see the morning light? I've been waiting And waiting And waiting My whole life...
(Verse 2:)
So now here we are Dim the lights down low Oh we can go fast Or should I go slow? I wanna kiss your lips Is that okay? I'm that guy, I'm that guy baby You'll be callin' out my name Sing it to me now
(Chorus:)
Talk to me, talk to me Am I doing this right? Talk to me, talk to me Are u feelin alright? (Sing It) I've been waiting for this my whole life And here you are tonight (Here You Are Tonight) I've been waiting for this my whole life And I can see it in your eyes Are you ready to stay up all night? To see the morning light? I've been waiting
And waiting And waiting My whole life...
(Bridge:) I ..wanna cater to you No... Nothin I wouldn't do I tried to find words to say I've never felt love in this way... This way I've been ready for this my whole life Here you are tonight (Here You Are Tonight)
I've been ready for this my whole life And I can see it in your eyes (Girl Im Wait...Girl Im Wait...Girl Im Waiting...) Girl are you ready to stay up all night To see the morning light
I've been waiting And waiting... And waiting
My whole life... Will you be waiting... my whole life...
A weapon of fire, emotions mistrust And they're still lying, they won't be to pushed Call me to freedom, too much to bear Take me to reason, and I'll fly from there
But if you run, and hide, you'll lose my soul When it's time to cross the tide, I'll be lost in the flow when the truth won't happen please don't try to run
If life was a season, the leaves turned to grey Call in a freebird, who may light the way These words were spoken, to tempt you from fire A hope for emotion, which came to desire
But if you run, and hide, you'll lose my soul When it's time to cross the tide, I'll be lost in the flow when the truth won't happen Please don't try to run
Or the world we're shaping Will fall from the sky I'll take your happy fall And linger as time goes on
Solitary motion, will lead to despair Fortunes in bleeding, will bring souls to bear But if it's hoping, I'm hoping too much It's not the solution, to live on mistrust
But if you run, and hide, you'll lose my soul When it's time to cross the tide, I'll be lost in the flow When the truth won't happen Please don't try to run ....When you're lost please don't try to run Please don't try to run....
