Songs

You’re left in a hopeless situation
Underwater and so confused
You want to give up and let yourself drift away
Gone forever and a day


Have you ever thought you were always on your own?
Left to deal with problems all alone
Lost and lonely always thinking
That it felt like you were sinking
Trust my words, for you are never alone


Thinking about them makes your head and heart ache
Wondering whether you’ll ever be able to break through
This sense of endless and crippling loss
You spin your wheels and lose control


Have you ever thought you were always on your own?
Left to deal with problems all alone
Lost and lonely always thinking
That it felt like you were sinking
Trust my words, for you are never alone


There are many beautiful people out there
And they are willing to share
They’ve been through what you’ve had to endure
While you thought you were all alone


Have you ever thought you were always on your own?
Left to deal with problems all alone
Lost and lonely always thinking
That it felt like you were sinking
Trust my words, for you are never alone


Lost and lonely always thinking
That it felt like you were sinking
Trust my words, for you are never alone

I was so innocent,
Thought you were protected
Had faith that tomorrow would come

There was only happiness and love so sweet
Built a world that would stand

How could I know what I couldn’t see?
Have to live with the sorrow, got to make peace
Gotta move on and remember to breathe
Can’t stay here forever, down on my knees

How could I know what I couldn’t see?
Have to live with the sorrow, got to make peace
Gotta move on and remember to breathe
Can’t stay here forever, down on my knees

How could I know what I couldn’t see?
Have to live with the sorrow, got to make peace
Gotta move on and remember to breathe
Can't stay here forever, down on my knees

How could I know
Oh how could I know
How could I know

I thought I’d buried it deep inside
I could live a normal life on the outside (2x)

I want to feel good every day
Instead of feeling like I’m still in mourning
I thought I’d buried it deep inside
I could live a normal life on the outside

But that’s not how you find your way to sanity
Pretending everything’s alright
Pain that you’ve hidden from your scrutiny
Must find its way back in to the light - on the outside

I thought I’d buried it deep inside
I could live a normal life on the outside (2x)

I can’t let those feelings take control
Or I’ll lose my very soul
I thought I’d buried it deep inside
I could live a normal life on the outside

But that’s not how you find your way to sanity
Pretending everything’s alright
Pain that you’ve hidden from your scrutiny
Must find its way back in to the light - on the outside

I thought I’d buried it deep inside
I could live a normal life on the outside (2x)

I know I never was to blame
Even though I feel so ashamed
I thought I’d buried it deep inside
I could live a normal life on the outside

But that’s not how you find your way to sanity
Pretending everything’s alright
Pain that you’ve hidden from your scrutiny
Must find its way back in to the light - on the outside

I thought I’d buried it deep inside
I thought I’d buried it deep inside
I thought I’d buried it deep inside
I thought I’d buried it deep inside

I doubt everything I’m trying to do
My past keeps catching up with me
I keep going back to a place,
I never wanted to be…

Don’t wanna be what I’m not…
I must rewire my thoughts

Took me a lifetime to put that behind...
To set my soul free.
I’ve been a prisoner of the lies they believed...
That weren’t the truth about me

Don’t wanna be what I’m not…
I must rewire my thoughts

There’s a long and lonely road up ahead
But that’s where I need to go
There’s something that’s calling to me
Something I need to know

I doubt every thing I'm trying to do
My past keeps catching with me

Don’t wanna be what I’m not…
I must rewire my thoughts
Don’t wanna be what I’m not…
I have rewired my thoughts

Seems like no one really cares
When you got a need to share
When you need someone to understand you
When you look around nobody's there

This got me down and filled with doubt
I simply started to block everyone out
I retreated into darkness and despair
With illusions of compassion everywhere

Was it really only in my mind
That those around me could be kind?
Was I lost inside by illusions, trapped inside a dream
How could I have been so blind?
Illusions in my mind

Could this be all about me?
Building a wall of selfish fantasy
So smoke and mirrors are what the people see
Not the truth, not reality

Was it really only in my mind
That those around me could be kind?
Was I lost inside by illusions, trapped inside a dream
How could I have been so blind?
Illusions in my mind

How could I be so blind?
Illusions in my mind
Ah ah ah, illusions in my mind

They knocked me down but I got back up X 4

They called me every kind of name
They made me feel so very small
They meant to make me feel ashamed
There was no mercy there at all

They knocked me down but I got back up X 4

I never gave in, I never lost hope
They didn’t think I could rise up this way
But I was stronger than they could imagine
They couldn’t break me with all of their hate

They knocked me down but I got back up X 4

It took a toll that I couldn’t bear
The guilt, it mounted over me
But despite the pain that haunted me
I held on tight pushed forward on

They knocked me down but I got back up X 4


I never gave in, I never lost hope
They didn’t think I could rise up this way
But I was stronger, than they could imagine
They couldn’t break me with all of their hate

They knocked me down but I got back up X 3

Oou I got back up, oou I got stronger, stronger, stronger oou
They knocked me down but I got back up
Oou but I got back up
They knocked me down but I got back up
They knocked me down but I got back up

It’s such a very sad thing to see,
When people are cruel, and their words are so mean
They thoughtlessly speak from a dark place inside
Without really caring about what they leave
It gives them a false sense of being all powerful
Gives them the right to prey on the vulnerable

Together we can stand up and over come it all with love
Drive out the darkness with courage and faith in us
Oh Together in strength

We must push forward on this path of unity
Breaking the patterns of mindless hostility
Learning to speak from a kind place inside
Putting our fears and our hatred aside
Wishing and hoping is never enough
True strength is found when we reach out with love

Together we can stand up and over come it all with love
Drive out the darkness with courage and faith in us
Oh Together in strength

Together we can stand up and over come it all with love
Drive out the darkness with courage and faith in us
Together we can stand up and over come it all with love
Drive out the darkness with courage and faith in us
Oh Together in Strength

My life's jouney was like passing through the seasons of time
In the spring of my life, I was full of wonder
I was a young tree growing in the rain and thunder
Lightning crashed around me and my world was shaken
My soul was weeping, and my heart was breaking

And the seasons changed me, oh they rearranged me
And I grew as years went by
In the spring of my life

In the summer of my life, I thought I was maturing
Blossoming into fullness but I was still learning
I was growing wild, and thought that it was freedom
I made some mistakes, but I couldn’t see them

And the seasons changed me, oh they rearranged me
And I grew as years went by
In the summer of my life

Autumn to winter and my life was bitter,
Full of what was left undone
But I found the reason for every season,
Led to what I have become - all the seasons of the sun

And the years all changed me, they all rearranged me
And I grew as time went by, in the seasons of my, the seasons of my life
