How I Got This Way
Sweep it under the rug
Hurt the ones that you love
I can't remember when or where
Sit alone with the one
Who shines her light on the sun
A darker day now I have lost my way
You think I've changed, but I'm the same
If it really matters
I'll do anything you ask me
Doesn't mean I'm never gonna fall
Wrap your arms around me
'Cause there is no need to disagree
Set your mind on better days
I don't know how I got this way
Breaking all of the rules
Act like some kind of fool
I'm on my own and you will never understand
Building the walls around me
If it really matters
I'll do anything you ask me
Doesn't mean I'm never gonna fall
Wrap your arms around me
'Cause there is no need to disagree
Set your mind on better days
I don't know how I got this way
Enough about me
I've tried so hard
Stuck in a hard place, let down your guard
And Soak in summer daze
Trippin' with craze I close my eyes
If it really matters
I'll do anything you ask me
Doesn't mean I'm never gonna fall
Wrap your arms around me
'Cause there is no need to disagree
Set your mind on better days
I don't know how I got this way
2.Stronger
Have you ever had one of those days
That had you freakin' out
Nothing ever goes right
Makes you start thinking
'Bout what you want
And everything that you need
And if you start losing control
Just see the top of the rhyme
You got a head start
Now I'm tryin' to figure out
Why you play a game you know
Will never be won
Think about ooh
There's not a lot I can do
But if you take a good look at yourself
Your gonna see that I'm stronger
It's not about you
I found you breakin' the rules
You gotta give it all up
To show me that you're gonna be stronger
Where you go and who you know
And I don't care a lot,
But what I can't care is I don't dare you
To show me what you got.
Take your money. Take your honey
Take Sir Laugh-a-lot
You got a lot of friends but you don't get me
I'm just getting even.
Think about ooh
There's not a lot I can do
But if you take a good look at yourself
Your gonna see that I'm stronger
It's not about you
I found you breakin' the rules
You gotta give it all up
To show me that you're gonna be stronger
Maybe that's the plan now
Maybe I just don't understand
How you can get off, non-stop
Thinking you're coming back
Now that I'm in total control
And you've been wasting you time
I see you low-ride, drive-by
It's not how you play the game
It's how you play the loser
Think about ooh
There's not a lot I can do
But if you take a good look at yourself
Your gonna see that I'm stronger
It's not about you
I found you breakin' the rules
You gotta give it all up
To show me that you're gon
3.Skin
It could have been
The smell of your skin
An innocense I've never seen
Find myself reaching for you
I couldn't ask for anymore
Feels like I've met you once before
You've opened the door to a brand new me...
Some things are meant to be
Now you've shown me the way
Got me thinking that maybe
Something just keeps telling me
If I gave you my word
Some things are meant to be.
A message left on your machine
Now I'm waiting for the phone to ring
It's in the way you look at me
I'm trying so hard to believe that...
Some things are meant to be
Now you've shown me the way
Got me thinking that maybe
Something just keeps telling me
If I gave you my word
Some things are meant to be.
It could have been
The smell of your skin...
Some things are meant to be
Now you've shown me the way
Got me thinking that maybe
Something just keeps telling me
If I gave you my word
If I gave you my word
Some things are meant to be.
4.Madrigal
I've been confusing real life with a dream
Dreamin' that some day i'll find all the answers to life
But i don't know where i am
Trip over shadows and dance in the street
Feelin' my way through the memories
I'm keeping my distance
Go where i wanna go
Watching the world go by...
Here i stand
With my head in my hands
Watchin' the world turn around
Watchin' the world turn around
5.Afraid To Fly
Feel like you're losing your innocence
Taking this all on again
A friend said it's easy
But you know this feeling
That keeps you by the window
Something to weight that heavy heart
Don't be afraid to be
Feeling so bad you see
It won't be long till you get back home
Dream what you wanna be
Feel it so easily
Don't be afraid to fly just let go
With the sunlight in your eyes
Climbing that cloudy maze all night
Separate this world in disguise
Surfacing the moon-struck horizon
You're already drifting through tomorrow
Turning the black holes into stars
Don't be afraid to be
Feeling so bad you see
It won't be long till you get back home
Dream what you wanna be
Feel it so easily
Don't be afraid to fly just let go
With the sunlight in your eyes
And when you get that high
Never say goodbye
To sunlight moving slowly through your window
And on your face
And when you get so high
You're gonna find
It doesn't get much better
Now it's all that you need to fly
Don't be afraid to be
Feeling so bad you see
It won't be long till you get back home
Dream what you wanna be
Feel it so easily
Don't be afraid to fly just let go
You're on your way to be
Catching that star you see
So don't be afraid to fly, just let go
With the sunlight in your eyes.
