Someone once told me that you have to choose
What you win or lose
You can’t have everything

Don’t you take chances
You might feel the pain
Don’t you love in vain
’cause love won’t set you free

I can’t stand by the side
And watch this life pass me by
So unhappy
But safe as could be

So what if it hurts me?
So what it I break down?
So what if this world just throws me off the edge,
My feet run out of ground
I gotta find my place
I wanna hear my sound
Don’t care about all the pain in front of me
I'm just trying to be happy
I just wanna be happy, yeah

Holding on tightly
just can’t let it go
just trying to play my role
slowly disappear

But all these days
They feel like they’re the same
Just different faces
different place
Get me out of here

I can’t stand by the side
Ooh, no
And watch this life pass me by
Pass me by

So what if it hurts me?
So what if i break down?
So what if this world just throws me off the edge?
my feet run out of ground
I gotta find my place
I wanna hear my sound
don’t care about all the pain in front of me
I’m just trying to be happy

Oh, happy
Oh

So many times i can't see
Like I'm a stranger on this road
But don't say victim
Don’t say anything

So what if it hurts me?
So what if I break down?
So what if this world just throws me off the edge?
My feet run out of ground
I gotta find my place
I wanna hear my sound
Don’t care about all the pain in front of me
I just wanna be happy
Happy
I just wanna be
Oh
I just wanna be
Happy

A place to crash
I got you
No need to ask
I got you
Just get on the phone
I got you
Come and pick you up
If I have to

What's weird about it
Cause we're right at the end
Mad about it
Just figured it out in my head
I'm proud to say
I got you

Go ahead and say goodbye
I'll be alright
Go ahead and make me cry
I'll be alright
And when you need a place
To run to
For better or worse
I got you

In falling apart
Of...
Let's be bigger than that
And remember
The colding outdoor
We we're both alone
Both surviving
No trouble no need for a show
Just wanna say
I got you

Go ahead and say goodbye
I'll be alright
Go ahead and make me cry
I'll be alright
And when you need a place
To run to
For better or worse
I got you

Go ahead and say goodbye
I'll be alright
Go ahead and make me cry
I'll be alright
And when you need a place
To run to
For better or worse
I got you

'Cause this is love that I
And nothing we can both control
And if it don't feel right
You're not losing me by letting me know

So,
Go ahead and say goodbye
I'll be alright
Go ahead and make me cry
I'll be alright
And when you need a place
To run to
For better or worse
I got you

Go ahead and say goodbye
I'll be alright
Go ahead and make me cry
I'll be alright
And when you need a place
To run to
For better or worse
I got you

A place to crash
I got you
No need to ask
I got you

I'm scared to sleep, I'm scared to dream
I'm scared to wake up in case I scream
I'm scared to whisper one word.
That's all it needs

I hear it breathe, I heart it sigh
I heart it laughing when somebody dies
I hear it calling
But I'm too scared to move

I'm so scared
I can't breathe
I'm so scared
I can't breathe
I'm so scared
I just can't breathe

I'm scared to look, I'm scared to see
I'm scared of mirrors in case it's me.
I'm scared of memories
But now that's all I have

So I can't leave and nothing comes
So no-one noticed that I've come undone.
I'd hide in shadows
But the shadows talk to me.

I'm so scared
I can't breathe
I'm so scared
I can't breathe
I'm so scared
I just can't breathe

. . .


Angels lift you off the ground
I've got shadows weighing me down
Still you believe
You believe in me
I wish I could feel that way

You can trust so easily
I can't give you all of me
Still you're holding on
When you should be gone
I wish I was that brave

You'd go to war for love like a soldier
I'd wanna run away
You're never scared to walk through the fire
I wish I had your faith
I'd turn away
Knowing my heart could break
I'm so afraid to lay down my armour
I'm not brave
I'm not brave

Keep my shield up constantly
Stop these arrows piercing me
Now I don't know how
How to put it down
I wish I was that brave

You'd go to war for love like a soldier
I'd wanna run away
You're never scared to walk through the fire
I wish I had your faith
I'd turn away
Knowing my heart could break
I'm so afraid to lay down my armour
I'm not brave
I'm not brave

Oh I'm not, I'm not brave
Still you believe
You believe in me
I wish I was that brave

You'd go to war for love like a soldier
I'd wanna run away
You're never scared to walk through the fire
I wish I had your faith
I'd turn away
Knowing my heart could break
I'm so afraid to lay down my armour
I'm not brave
I'm not brave
I'm not brave
I'm not brave

. . .


I keep taking
Taking you back
But I dont know why I do
You keep breaking
Breaking me down
So I'll find somebody new
Alright

I dont want to feel I'm there For you, for life
And now your begging me to see you tonight

Its funny how easy you can mess me up
Now look how easy I get you

Outta me head, outta my head
Say goodbye
Somebody's gonna get you
Outta my head, outta my head
And tonight
I'm doing what I want to
You made the biggest mistake
And now I'm going to get you way
Outta my head, outta my head
Say goodbye
Somebody's gonna get you

I kept taking
Taking the blame
And its soring me up inside
So defeated, losing my self
But you'll never make me cry again
Remember you and I didnt want things to end
And now your tasting all the pain I was in.

Its funny how easy you can mess me up
Now look how easy I get you

Outta me head, outta my head
Say goodbye
Somebody's gonna get you
Outta my head, outta my head
And tonight
I'm doing what I want to
You made the biggest mistake
And now I'm going to get you way
Outta my head, outta my head
Say goodbye
Somebody's gonna get you

Oh
Outta my face and thoughts forever
And maybe I can sleep and breath much better
And finally I am seeing everything clearer
So watch me now
Oh
Just watch me now

Outta me head, outta my head
Say goodbye(goodbye)
Somebody's gonna get you
Outta my head, outta my head
And tonight
I'm doing what I want to
You made the biggest mistake
And now I'm going to get you way
Outta my head, outta my head
Say goodbye
Somebody's gonna get you

. . .


Sleep without the lights
And I'd do
All of the things
I have to
Keeping you off my mind
When I think I'll be alright
I am always wrong
'Cause

My Hands
Don't want to start again
My Hands
Turning on(?)and understand
My Hands
They can shake it
Celebrate(?)
Whatever we are signing for

. . .


I can't wait for the day to end
So I can finally see your face again
We'll find a way if this wish comes true tonight

Eventhough I never met you
I still miss you
I can feel you in my dreams
And I hope that
When you wake up
Just maybe you'll remember me

And now I believe that this is fate
'Cause baby we belong together
I know everything is gonna be OK
Just as long as we have each other
Through the sunshine and through the rain
I know that it'll last forever
Just last night I stayed up late
And I wrote you a love letter

Wrote you a love letter

Tell me, am I insane?
I sent your letter on the window pane
I thought of you as I let it fly away, and away

Eventhough I never met you
I still miss you
I can see you in my dreams
And I hope that
When you read this
Just maybe you'll remember me

And now I believe that this is fate
'Cause baby we belong together
I know everything is gonna be OK
Just as long as we have each other
Through the sunshine and through the rain
I know that it'll last forever
Just last night I stayed up late
And I wrote you a love letter

Wrote you a love letter
I know that we'll always be together
Together, together, together

Eventhough I never met you
I still miss you
I can see you in my dreams
And I hope that
When you read this
Just maybe you'll remember me

And now I believe that this is fate
'Cause baby we belong together
I know everything is gonna be OK
Just as long as we have each other
Through the sunshine and through the rain
I know that it'll last forever
Just last night I stayed up late
And I wrote you a love letter

Wrote you a love letter
I know that we'll always be together
We'll be together, together, together
(We'll always be)

'Cause I wrote you a love letter

. . .


You can take away all my love
What do I need it for
You can take away all these words
There's no meaning anymore
You can take away everything
Leave me lying on the floor
All those sorry's we can't go back to the start
You can't fix me, I'm torn apart

I wanna run away from love
This time I have had enough
Every time i feel your touch, I'm broken
Shattered all my pieces of part
Never thought I'd fall so hard
Putting back together my heart, It's broken

You can take these photographs
Watch them fade away, oh
You can throw away all these letters
I don't care about what they say
All those sorry's, there's a million reasons why
You can't mend me, don't even try

I wanna run away from love
This time I have had enough
Every time I feel your touch, I'm broken
Shattered all the pieces of part
Never thought I'd fall so hard
Putting back together my heart, I'm broken

I know it's gonna take some time
To finally realize
I got nothing let inside

Nothing to hide
I'm broken, I'm broken
My heart is oh, oh, oh
I'm broken, I'm broken
There's nothing left inside
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Save me

I wanna run away from love
This time I've had enough
Every time i feel your touch, I'm broken
Shattered all the pieces of part
Never thought I'd fall so hard
Putting back together my heart, I'm broken

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, I'm broken
Oh, Oh Oh, Oh, Save me
Oh, Save, Me
I'm broken

. . .


You could have left me on a firday
Would have loved to had least had the weekend
To go under and
To stay under
To get better
To stay better

But you had to pick a monday
Now i gotta go to work
And get through 5 days
And get through it
And if i cant do it
And no, i cant do it

CHORUS
Theres a heartbreaking chill running to
Through my bones
I got my clothes but I can't really Feel them on
Oh no
Whatever I do
I'm naked
I'm naked
Without you

Cant go out, cant go home, cant go anywhere
Covered up but I'm still watching people stare
Oh no
Now what can I do
I'm naked
I'm naked
Without you

Tryin' focus to go un-noticed
But the harder I try I see them looking
And i cant do it no
They see through it yeah
They see through it

[CHORUS]

Inside out
Still hiding
Outside i'm just too exposed
I know that i should let go

Ohh, that i miss you

[CHORUS]

Now what can i do
I'm naked
I'm naked
Without you

. . .


[Oasis cover; written by Noel Gallagher]

Hold up
Hold on
Don't be scared
You'll never change what's been and gone

May your smile (may your smile)
Shine on (shine on)
Don't be scared (don't be scared)
Your destiny may keep you warm

Cos all of the stars
Are fading away
Just try not to worry
You'll see them some day
Take what you need
And be on your way
And stop crying your heart out

Get up (get up)
Come on (come on)
Why're you scared? (I'm not scared)
You'll never change
What's been and gone

Cos all of the stars
Are fading away
Just try not to worry
You'll see them some day
Take what you need
And be on your way
And stop crying your heart out

Cos all of the stars
Are fading away
Just try not to worry
You'll see them some day
Take what you need
And be on your way
And stop crying your heart out

We're all of us stars
We're fading away
Just try not to worry
You'll see us some day
Just take what you need
And be on your way
And stop crying your heart out
Stop crying your heart out
Stop crying your heart out

Fork in the road,
Looking both ways, I,
Don't know which way to go.
What do I count on?
Is it the road less traveled?
Or the one I already know?

And no I'm not traveling alone.
I got my heart in my hand, And,
You can bet I'm holding it close.

Don't wanna climb,
Don't wanna fall,
Don't know where to start it all.
I can start by taking it slow.

First I need a, hero,
I got a, mirror,
Looking inside of my soul.
If I need a, hero,
I got my, mirror,
Gotta go on with the show.

I got my ear to the ground;
That's the sound of my train comin' 'round.
This is a chance for us to be heard loud.
It's you and me,
And it's our time now.
Don't let me down.

[Justin Timberlake:]
Don't let me down,
Don't let me down now,
Don't let me down,
Don't let me down now.

[Leona Lewis:]
People!
This is what you're living your life for.
Fighter,
That's your name ([JT:] That's your name)

Trying to hide but it's obvious you're a survivor.
Believer,
Don't let the travel in the road -
That look in your eyes,
Puts fire in the heart of the cold (world).
Got a marathon to try again,
I'm not even tryin' to win.
I'm just glad I'm not alone.


First I need a, hero,
I got a, mirror,
Looking inside of my soul.
If I need a, hero,
I get my, mirror,
Gotta go on with the show.

I got my ear to the ground;
That's the sound of my train comin' 'round.
This is a chance for us to be heard loud.
It's you and me,
And it's our time now.
Don't let me down.

[Leona Lewis:]
Don't you let me down,
Promise you won't let me down.
Don't you let me down,
Promise you won't let me down.

You've been running so alone.
I see you (I see you).
You told me we could change the world.
And I believe it's true.

There's nothing now to hold us down.
I found,
My pains,
And the sound of your heart led the way.

I got my ear to the ground;
That's the sound of my train comin' 'round. (comin' round)
This is a chance for us to be heard loud.
It's you and me,
And it's our time now.
Don't let me down!

Don't you let me down, (Don't let me down)
Promise you won't let me down, ([JT:] Don't let me down now)
Don't let me down,([JT:] Don't let me down now)
Promise you won't let me down, ([JT:] Don't let me down now)

[Justin Timberlake:]
Don't let me down,
Don't let me down now,
Don't let me down,
Don't let me down now.

I breathe
I hear
But I don't believe it

My heart
It beats
But inside I'm freezing

My hands
They shake
I've lost all the feeling

Nowhere
To take
You say that you're leaving

And there's no turning back this time
Gotta stay alive

Where do I go when I'm so alone
Where do I turn when we weren't so close
We try not to crash but we still collide
Tears I've cried
I'll survive
I'm alive

I'm stripped
I'm bare
I'm left here with nothing

I hold
The wheel
Don't know where I'm going

Your face
I see
In every reflection

No time
No space
I've lost all direction

And there's no turning back this time
Gotta stay alive

Where do I go when I'm so alone
Where do I turn when we weren't so close
We try not to crash but we still collide
Tears I've cried
I'll survive
I'm alive

I'm gonna get there someway
Through all the tears and the rain
And any road I can take
Just to get me some place

Where all the scars on my heart
And all the lies in the dark
Disappear in the headlights
So bright, tonight, gonna drive them away

Where do I go when I'm so alone
Where do I turn when we weren't so close
We try not to crash but we still collide
Tears I've cried
I'll survive
I'm alive

I'm alive [x3]
Ooh

I'm alive

. . .


Staring at tears on the pages
Of letters that I never could've write
Now I know love isn't painless,
but it's worth the risk,
it's worth the fight
Playing it over and over
I wish that I could turn back time, baby
We were wrong, but we could be right

Why do we say things we can't take back
Why do we miss what we never had
Both of us fell to the ground
The love was so lost, it couldn't be found
Why do you tend to forget whose vain
I'm tired of crying out at the sound of your name
Why don't we turn this around, love ain't the enemy
Don't you want to be lost then found
Lost then found, lost then found
Love ain't the enemy
We could be lost then found

Empty glasses on tables, echoes fill these rooms
The memories go where we go,
There like the suitcase that you never lose
If the good lords eyes upon me
I swear to make things right
Whatever we lost, i know we can find

Why do we say things we can't take back
Why do we miss what we never had
Both of us fell to the ground
The love was so lost, it couldn't be found
Why do you tend to forget whose vain
I'm tired of crying out at the sound of your name
Why don't we turn this around, love ain't the enemy
Don't you want to be lost then found

No words can come without
Can't stop the rain, I wish you could take it back
But it's too late, it's too late

Why do we say things we can't take back
Why do we miss what we never had
Both of us fell to the ground
The love was so lost, it couldn't be found
Why do you tend to forget whose vain
I'm tired of crying out at the sound of your name
Why don't we turn this around, love ain't the enemy
Don't you want to be lost then found
Lost then found, lost then found
Love ain't the enemy
We could be lost then found

No words can come without
Can't stop the rain,(Lost then found)
I wish you could take it back (Lost then found)
But it's too late, it's too late

We could be lost then found..

. . .


You were like the crash of thunder
Echo'ed through my darkest nights
You awaken all my senses,
Made me feel alive
Even if we try to fight it
We know that the sparks will fly
Cause in the end where just two
People, Destined to collide

Like stone hearts
And hand grenades
You and I, Are not the same
There is nothing i would change
Where stone hearts
And hand grenades

All my lonely
You blow it all away
And when you need me
I will keep you safe

After all the dust has settled
We lift eachother of the ground
I carry you a million miles
I'll never let you down (No)
Theres alot of strength in weakness
Theres alot of truth in lies
But in the end where just
Two people, Destined to collide

Like stone hearts
And hand grenades
You and I, Are not the same
There is nothing i would change
Where stone hearts
And hand grenades

All my lonely
You blow it all away
And when you need me
I will keep you safe

All my lonely
You blow it all away
(away ,away,away, yeah yeah )

Like stone hearts
And hand grenades
You and I, Are not the same..
There is nothing i would change
Stone hearts
And hand grenades

Stone hearts
And hand grenades

All my lonely
You blow it all away
When you need me
I will keep you safe

All my lonely
You blow it all away
When you need me (when you need me)
I will keep you safe
(I will you safe)

All my lonley
You blow it all away
When you need me
I will keep you safe

All my lonley
You blow it all away
When you need me.

. . .


Doesn't matter what you say
Just tell me what would you do
When I miss you like this baby
Gotta teleport your molecules
give you wings so you can fly
Hi-i-i-i-igh
I'd give you wings so you could fly to me across the sky
I'm tired of talking baby
Say yes or no not maybe
I need your body here with me
(I need your body here with me)

This might sound crazy but
Just fly here right now
Glide like an airplane and
Just fly here right now

There's nothing there to hold you down
there's nobody that's strong enough
Aren't you tired of living on the ground
Well tonight we're going to live it up
Take a trip across the sky
Hi-i-i-i-igh
Spread your wings and fly
This aint a hard decision
Your stronger than jet engines
There's no excuse for you to be
there's no excuse for you to be so far from me

This might sound crazy but
Just fly here right now
Glide like an airplane and
Just fly here right now

People say that we
We can't fly
But we can defy
Gravity tonight we'll fly
People say that we
We can't fly
But we can defy
Gravity
If we can just do something crazy

This might sound crazy but
Just fly here right now
Glide like an airplane and
Just fly here right now

This might sound crazy but
Just fly here right now
Glide like an airplane and
Just fly here right now

. . .


all those tears from yesterday
they didn't wash away the pain
so long overdue
those tears were for you
don't say you love me again
just because you see the end
don't act like you care
it's too late to pretend
I never wanted to burn outrageous
but i'm so tired
so hard to walk away
but I cant wish for yesterday

ohh ohhhh
I don't want to lose you
I don't want to lose you
But it's so hard when you don't care anymore
our love was amazing
now it's not worth saving
something tells me you don't care
you don't care anymore

someday soon you'll understand
when no ones there to hold your hand
when loneliness is your only friend
i'm not saying there won't be
another time for you and me
i won't let love die
or let you hurt me again
I never wanted to burn outrageous
but i'm so tired
I don't want to walk away
but I can't wish for yesterday

ohh ohhh
I don't want to lose you
I don't want to lose you
But it's so hard when you don't care anymore
our love was amazing
now it's not worth saving
something tells me you don't care
you don't care anymore

someday when you're all alone
when you've got no hand to hold
you wil think of me

ohh ohhh
i don't want to lose you
don't want to lose you
something tells me you don't care
you don't care

ohh ohhh
I don't want to lose you
I don't want to lose you
But it's so hard when you don't care anymore
our love was amazing
now it's not worth saving
something tells me you don't care
you don't care anymore

ohhh anymore
you don't care anymore

woahhh woahhh you don't care anymore
woahhh you don't care
you don't care anymore

. . .


(Let it, let it, let it, let it rain)

Bare foot on broken glass
Each step reminds me of the past
These scars I hide,
They fade away, disappear with time
This time

I'm ready for it all,
I wanna let it pour
My heart is open wide.
I feel it on my skin,
I wanna drink you in
Can't you see it in my eyes
It's in the air, you're everywhere
Don't let it slip away,
Can't wait another day
Let it, let it, let it, let it rain

No breath, breathe into me
Your eyes, they bring me to my knees
I reach out and you'll understand, Ohh
So close, I feel you touch my hand
My hand

I'm ready for it all,
Don't wanna let it pour
My heart is open wide.
I feel it on my skin,
I wanna drink you in
Can't you see it in my eyes
It's in the air, you're everywhere
Don't let it slip away,
Can't wait another day
Let it, let it, let it, let it rain

Let it fall
Let it wash away all the pain
Time to stop holding on, Ohh
Let it crash
Let it all come down
Cos I've seen all the words from the hurt
Now the sun is coming out

Ready for it all
I wanna let it pour
My heart is open wide.
I feel it on my skin,
I wanna drink you in
Can't you see it in my eyes
It's in the air, you're everywhere
Don't let it slip away,
Can't wait another day
Let it, let it, let it, let it rain
Let it, let it, let it, let it rain
Let it, let it, let it, let it rain
Let it, let it, let it, let it rain
