Pillar Album

Days were so cold
Nights spent alone
Searching for that something
That I've never known
Held captive by the pain
Caught up in all the shame
My heart just won't stop playin these head games
Its like a terminal disease
And now I've found a remedy

You You're keeping
You're keeping me alive
With this fire on the inside

Now I see the sun
The battle wages on
Gotta watch my back this time
So I know where its all coming from
Its like a shadow I can't see
And its sneaking up on me

You You're keeping
You're keeping me alive
With this fire on the inside

[Verse 1]

What will it take to make you see me. the way that I
see you. And what will it take to make you want me.
The way I always wanted you. I dont know why. Your in
everything I see. And I cant deny.That your everything
I need..So I reach in.

[Chorus]

Whatever it takes to get to you, whatever it takes to break
through. Whatever it takes you are my reason, for everything
I do. Whatever it takes. Whatever it takes. Whatever it takes to..
Whatever it takes. Whatever it takes. Whatever it takes..

[Verse 2]

What will it take to make you fall for me. The way i fell
for you. and what will it take to make you fight for me,
The way I always fought for you. And I dont know why.
You bring me to my knees. But I cant unwind. from
how you twisted me. But I reach in..

[Chorus]

Cause there is just one thing about you and I just cant live
without so ill just keep holding on. Cause theres just one
thing about you and I just cant live without you. So ill just
keep holding on..

[Chorus]

Whatever it takes to get to you, whatever it takes to break
through.. Whatever it takes you are my reason, for everything
I do.. Whatever it takes, Whatever it takes, Whatever it takes to..
Whatever it takes. Whatever it takes. Whatever it takes..

Whatever it takes. TO GET TO YOU (To get to you x3)

Whatever it takes to get to you. Whatever it takes to break through..
Whatever it takes you are my reason, for everything
I do. Whatever it takes. Whatever it takes. Whatever it takes .
Whatever it takes. Whatever it takes to, Whatever it takes,
Whatever it takes, Whatever it takes, Whatever it takes..

No matter how hard you try to
You can't make the clock rewind to the moment that you lied to yourself
It never really mattered how they felt

Your secrets and regrets are keeping you from going very far
And you can't let all this get you down and keep you living in the dark
Cause all you're looking for
Is love
You're living in the dark
You just can't get enough
Your secrets and regrets

Your holding on to all this pain
Can't seem to leave it all behind you
Tomorrow it'll be today soon
Don't wait until it's too late to move

Your secrets and regrets are keeping you from going very far and you can't let this get you down and keep you living in the dark
You're living in the dark
You just can't get enough
Your secrets and regrets

How many times do you need second chances
Not everybody gets a another second chance
(how many times do you need second chances, not everybody gets another...)

...chance!
Second chance

Your secrets and regrets are keeping you from going very far and you can't let all this get you down and keep you living in the dark cause all you're looking for
Is love
You're living in the dark
You just can't get enough
Your secrets and regrets

No more secrets
(no regrets)

No more secrets
(no regrets)

No living in the dark [x4]

All of this is changing
none of this seems real
I just keep waiting
To see if i can feel
something like an angel watching over me
maybe that's exactly what's in front of me

'cause im better off now
since you been around
you've gone and shown me
everything i needed just to that i am
better off now
since you came around
all i had to do i see what i could be
so i could know i'm better off now

I've wasted so much time now just to try and find
the answer to the questions
i've tried so hard to hide
I never knew emotions
could ever run this high
I was so far down
I lost the will to try
day after day
i threw it all away
I'm never turning back
that way again

verse 1

Theres a hole in my heart thats bleeding, but its giving me strength I needed
To carry on, Im moving on, Im not giving up that easily
I can see the background breaking, It does not stop the scars were making
Im standing strong, it wont be long, until I see you face to face

Chorus

I'm not going down that easy, it takes more than that just to break me.
Im not going down without bleeding. I'm not going down, Down without a FIGHT

verse 2

It never mattered what I took for chances, It never mattered where I looked for answers
Im taking the blame, this isnt a game, I just cant watch you fake it

Chorus

I'm not going down that easy, it takes more than that just to break me.
Im not going down without bleeding. I'm not going down, Down without a FIGHT

I wont go down without a fight, Its just you and me tonight
Face to face, and do or die, I lay it all out on the line

Chorus

I'm not going down that easy, it takes more than that just to break me.
Im not going down without bleeding. I'm not going down, Down without a FIGHT

[Verse 1]

Tell me when its over, never thought we'd be here,
Moments passing by im losing you. So much that I never
knew, couldnt bring it out of you, caught up in the history,
It wont let you go.. go..
[Chorus]

When the sun comes up tommrow, will you be there? Will
you be there? If i fade away tommrow, will you be there?
Will you stay here..

[Verse 2]

Tell me its not over, I can't see it anymore, all the love is
passing by im losing you. Of all the things I ever said,
never meant so much regret. Hard to see the future if
the past is in the way. Can we find a way..
[Chorus]

When the sun comes up tommrow, will you be there? Will
you be there? If i fade away tommrow, will you be there?
Will you stay here..

Cause there is just one thing about you and I just cant live
without so ill just keep holding on.. Cause theres just one
thing about you and I just cant live without you... So ill just
keep holding on..

[Chorus]

And when the sun comes up tommrow, will you be there?
Will you be there..

When the sun comes up tommrow, will you be there? Will
you be there? If i fade away tommrow, will you be there?
Will you stay here..

(Collective Soul cover)

Give me a word
Give me a sign
Show me where to look
Tell me what will I find
Lay me on the ground
Fly me in the sky
Show me where to look
Tell me what will I find
Oh, heaven let your light shine down

Love is in the water
Love is in the air
Show me where to go
Tell me will love be there
Teach me how to speak
Teach me how to share
Teach me where to go
Tell me will love be there
Oh, heaven let your light shine down

I don't believe you're dull reaction
What we need's a call to action
Desplay it in your coldest caption
What we need's a call to action

So long to what could never heal
So long to your distant memory
So long to what could never be

You build me up to break me down again
You kill me once you kill me every time
Your disbelief it keeps me waiting in line

So long to all your remedies
So long to your desperate misery
So long to what you think of me

You kill me once you kill me every time
(Action)
Waiting in line, waiting in line
(Action)

And at this moment I'm standing forward
(Action)
I've tried it your way so how do you like me now?
Like me now
How do you like me now?

[Verse 1]

Can you tell me why..We all run, from the hurt inside.....
Theres no need to cry...Dry your eyes and take a breath..
Its life or death, Can you tell me what your waiting for....

[Chorus]

If you lose it all, and it just wont feel the same, In the fight
to carry on... stand and face the rain...as you watch it fall,
You learn to live again..It isnt all that bad, when your standing
in the end..

[Verse 2]

Give this one more try.... Take my hand, let your heart decide...
And hold your head up high... close your eyes and take a breath,
Its life or death.... Can you tell me what your waiting for....

[Chorus]

If you lose it all, and it just wont feel the same, In the fight
to carry on... stand and face the rain...as you watch it fall,
You learn to live again..It isnt all that bad, when your still standing
in the end....

And all those voices cry out, they pull your up tear you down...
And in that one voice whispers of that leave again...

[Chorus]

If you lose it all, and it just wont feel the same, In the fight
to carry on... stand and face the rain...as you watch it fall,
You learn to live again..It isnt all that bad, when your still standing
in the end....

Verse 1

Another time and a place, another slap in the face,
and I dont know what it takes to be loved by you.
Another shot in the dark and now its falling apart but
ill never let my heart be broke by you, I feel for you...
You can try and bring me down and then, like a phoenix I
will rise again, I always do.... ( I always do)

Chorus

I won't let you win, You are not the end of me,
I wont let you win, I wont let you bring me to my knees...

Verse 2

Another simple mistake is causing hostile break, and stirring
up the weight that was left by you... And I don't think I can wait,
I need to step up the pace, and gunna finish the race and gunna
start to..I always do..You can try to take the rest of me, but you'll
never get the best of me, I won't let go (I wont let go)

Chorus

I won't let you win, You are not the end of me,
I wont let you win, I wont let you bring me to my knees...

Until that final day, I wont walk away.... Your not the end of
me, wont get the best of me

Chorus x2

I won't let you win, You are not the end of me,
I wont let you win, I wont let you bring me to my knees...
