Under the sky You see me walk alone You wonder why I honestly don't know To be alone tonight To find the answers What's wrong or right Your right or wrong How can I see Your right or wrong Which will it be Your right or wrong How can I know Your right or wrong Which way to go? Lying awake at night Thinking of all the things I have to do And things I should have done Decisions to be made I see the path Is it the way? Know the answers out there If I keep looking, will I find it? The answers in the night And if I find it, what then? What then?
Take time to look around Past the lies, look in your soul Stand mute without a sound The world is changing - just look away And if you want to know the truth I just don't know what to say We used to stand for everything Now I can see it slipping away Take me away Cause I can't believe that you're the one to fall I still remember when We had a vision in our hands And we gave it to the world Then you took your guns and blew yourselves away In order to be good Does that mean we must be great? Everything I thought was wrong We passed the torch And now it's gone
Dream away You're just a dreamer boy And I've been here before Dream away You're dreaming your life away It's what they want you to believe Salute the flag, say the pledge That's what they say It seems to me like there's so much more Taking it to the wall It seems to me there's more than what they say Hold your head up Target their world Just let em fly Dreams away Now, no matter how I try I just can't walk away It seems it's inside me and it will stay So whenever you get down Just think of all the things we've done Then you know that we can take it You know it's just begun Hold your head up Target their world Just let em fly Dreams away
Yesterday I cut myself on pieces of a broken dream And though it hurt me so, I won't cry No I won't shed a tear I tried so hard To pick you up I poured your bottles down the drain You poured your mind And if you ask me I'll be there for you But it's up to you from here And so the time has come for me to say goodbye And though it hurts me so I won't cry When I look you in the eye Cause all the problems Remain unsolved You're 100 proofs to me Of what I hoped you'd never be And if you ask I'll be there for you but it's up to you from here
Looking down the street today Crime and war is all I've got to see You look around, you want to know Is it really my country? Sometimes I wonder where it went Is it in bombs they always send To killers round the world? Where's the other side Of my american dream? And still they teach that dream in school Equality from sea to shining sea You look around, you want to know Is it really my country? You see that man there on the ground Just step over or around His dreams have brought him down Where's the other side Of my american dream Where's the other side Where's the other side
Feelin' high and feelin' low You're just standing there With no where to go You can't win if you're all hooked up One day you're out of luck and There's no finding some If you don't watch you're step You keep on finding out You keep on finding out You don't win, you lose You better watch your step or You will always lose, always lose Now depressions hit and you're after it And that's a bad excuse The wrong thing to do is to Pretend that you Haven't got a problem You didn't have to cause this pain To yourself You can change anytime you want Just don't get in too deep cause I'm worried That that's gonna tear us apart I knew that it would
Wake up in time to get your call Make sure this time we got it all My best friend's always near me She's been looking after me I need her and it's clear to see My best friend's always near me Enjoy this as long as we should be With only her my life it could be My friend knows why When I've lost track We'll never cry We'll always laugh For a stop and go And I know we would My friend is always by my side And it's so nice to be near her Or just to call to hear her These days are looking awfully good We made it and I know we would Hold on to me, hold on to me
Want to know the reason I just don't walk away Try to find the answers That's the time they slip away Why can't it be easy? If I believed that's what I'd pray God I know we're making dents By changing today In times of trouble, times of pain And we're the ones who see it We've got to seize the day When I die I want to know We helped to make a difference Find a reason Find a rhyme And we can help refine it We've gotta go! We're gonna see it through Your times are calling you There's so much darkness in our day Bleed the planet, kill each other Freedom what a price we pay I'd swallow all the poison To make it go away . . . Find a reason Find a rhyme And we can help refine it
If I could be the one Then you know I'd be the one Knock down walls built up around me Building blocks only I can see Close my eyes The dream begins It's black and white Then you wake up again My mind is blank for you Draw on it what you will Try the truth, you try my patience I draw on strength you'll never know How could you draw me? I close my eyes The dream begins It's black and white Then you wake up again
Walking down the freeway Trying to waste some time Looking for the answers I know I'll never find Thinking about the weather And why it never rains You can run from storm clouds Can't outrun pain And you can't change the weather You're changing And you're changing now But you can't see it still Stepping out of one life Another straight ahead Chasing all those yesterdays Til you're half dead Want to know the answers? You take life on the chin That's the price you pay You never know that Van Gogh died with nothing You're changing And you're changing now But you can't see it still
It's time to make the break Make life accelerate Lying there won't make you great Sleep doesn't make you see Just take a chance on life Some chances won't come twice It could be everything Never know til you try It's not a black and white world There's too much grey And sometimes truth lies hidden When you need to know the way And you know that your black Could be someone's white But the more you're Thinking like them The more they could be right You've got seventy years To make a difference here You won't get there it's clear Living your life in fear And so I look at you Your three piece suit of blue You dragon slayer, you St. George never fought for fold Everybody wants to be a Pillar of strength And an overflowing vessel Of truth But stand up, look around Take a little step And find what you can do Now don't burn every bridge Don't be afraid to cross It could be everything Never know til you tryTop
