Conquer The Storm
04:20

This shadow hanging over me
Is only temporary, but it can do some damage
And this poison its forced inside of me
Closes my eyes so I can no longer see,
Stripping my will from me
Stripping my will…
I cannot see, I do not hear
And my only too of function is under destruction
Yes I am limp, lack of control
And when it chooses, it will toy with the strings of my soul
OOOOO
I’ve fought this feeling for so long
To the point that I’m no longer strong enough
My decisions were in the wrong; OOO
But guess what? I learned my lesson:
The cure to your demons is not to share them
And now I’m ready to conquer the storm
Ready to conquer the storm!
I stumble through the valley of burdened souls
And I wonder desperately if this is where I’ll rest in peace
(When their done with me)
And this armor for now will hold
But these seems are bound to give
And these cracks are sure to spread
I’ve fought this feeling for so long
To the point that I’m no longer strong enough
My decisions were in the wrong, OOO
But guess what? I learned my lesson:
The cure to your demons is not to share them
And now I’m ready to conquer the storm
Ready to conquer
Ready to conquer
Ready to conquer the storm!

Fight

Showering over me
Is nothing other than, nothing other than
Pain and misery
And lurking within my veins
Is a disease
It'll kill me
It's gonna kill me
Unless I try and
Fight, fight, fight
To make it right
There's no other way
Slightly, I've been feeling so uptight
About this whole situation
I just might fight for my rights
If it's gonna make me stay
Doctor please bring me back to life
Before it's too late!
The second day is always the worst
And I can't believe I was cast this curse
I said, God forgive me for all I’ve done
I’ve come this far, and I’m too young
He looked at me and he said,
“Everything will be alright,
ut for tonight, sleep tight”
I can see the light before my eyes
Fight, Fight, Fight
To make it right
There’s no other way
Slightly Iv’ve been feeling so uptight
About this whole situation
I just might fight for my rights
If its gonna make me stay
Doctor please bring me back to life
Before its too late
Before its too late
Before its too late
Doctor….

It's You I Admire

oooooooooooooooooooooo
You’ve sure got some nerve
Coming up here
And telling me what to do
And yet I can’t imagine
Living without you
I guess this is what I deserve
When I fall down you pick me up
When I’m scared you pull me out of the fire
It’s you I admire
OOOOOOOOOO
ooooooooooooooooooooooooo
All this time on hateful fighting
Do our actions really express
How we truly feel
About one another?
When I fall down you pick me up
When I’m scared you carry me out of the fire
It’s you I admire
OOOOOOOOOO
ooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Don’t worry, we’ll get through this some day
This is just a phase, just a daymare
Don't worry, don't fret, anymore
The light is near
When I fall down you pick me up
When I’m scared you carry me out of the fire
It’s you I admire
OOOO
When I fall down you pick me up
When I’m scared OOO
When I’m broken, you put the pieces back together
OOOOO

LOVE SUCKS
04:35

How did it ever turn out this way
When I never expected anything…from you?
Unexpected, unintentioned mistake
Are you feeling under the weather today?
Love is a four-letter word that I don’t understand
You left me on January 14th
And you took my heart; and you took it for keeps
It stays in your closet locked up underneath
You want me, love me, lose me, now I am incomplete
Love is a four-letter word that I don’t understand
It's a four-letter word with a thousand-letter meaning
(L stands for losing patience
O stands for overrated
V stands for void
And E stands for Estrogen) x2
S stands for suffocating
U stands for u and me
I can’t believe I said we were meant to be
C stands for constant effort
K is just there because
And S is there to show I’m sleeping lonely tonight
Love is a four-letter word that I don’t understand
It's a four-letter word with a thousand-letter meaning
Why’d you give up on my when our love was so strong
Cause I feel like I can’t breath without you in my arms
AAAAAHHHH, AHHHHHHH, AAAAHHHHHH, AAAHHHH

There Beside Me

My best friend
You've been there all along
That's why I took the time to write this song
As the days go by
I realize I'm not as strong
Without you to lean on
Because I'm here for you
You're here for me
That's the way it's gonna be
Forever and always
You opened up my eyes
And now I see
How great life can be
With you there beside me
And along this road
If our paths do part
I'll leave a place for you
Inside my heart
And to you I swear
I'll promise you this
I'll fight through the storm
No matter the risk
Because I'm here for you
You're here for me
That's the way it's gonna be
Forever and always
You opened up my eyes
And now I see
How great life can be
With you there beside me
Through thick and thin
From dawn through the dusk
I'll be your guardian angel
It's me you can trust
Because I'm here for you
You're here for me
That's the way it's gonna be
Forever and always
You opened up my eyes
And now I see
How great life can be
With you there beside me

Your Kind Heart

I, I made a mistake
I’m hardly awake right now
I messed up
And yet I’m falling in love,
With you again
You had lost your faith in me
You had displayed your honesty
You had promised your loyalty
I understand if your disappointed in me
But I can’t fight this feeling
Anymore
I said you're the one for me
The one I adore
The one I adore
So you, you and your kind heart
You gave me a new start
A second chance
I’m a lucky man
Yeah, I’m a lucky man
But I can’t fight this feeling
Anymore
I said you're the one for me
The one I adore
The one I adore
But do I deserve you?
After I hurt you?
Do I deserve you?
I don’t know
Look, if you want me
Than I’m not objecting
But do I deserve you?
I don’t know
You and your kind heart
You and your kind heart
You and your kind heart
But I can’t fight this feeling…
Anymore
I said you're the one for me
The one I adore
The one I adore
The one I adore
The one I adore
You and your kind heart
You and your kind heart
You and your kind heart
