Lately i think there’s something wrong with me
Gotta take the easy way out and just surrender
Come on everybody, help me out
It’s all i believe, it’s everything i breathe
But its dragging me down, taking me under
Come on everybody i need you now
Why cant i hear the sound of believing?
Rise, be whoever you are, everyone needs to be someone, someone
Tonight, dance to the beat of the drums, everyone needs to be someone, someone
So this is showtime, i gotta shine, and take a new leaf with no dollar sign
Step up to the majors, that’s my saviour, getting’ too old for the bad behaviour
Been lazier, crazier, globed it from the u.s. to australia, but i ain’t playin’ bro
Can you try and see, ya savin’ em downloadin’ my life for free
Ok i admit i’m the culprit here, misplacing my grip with every gulp of beer
Just workin so hard that my hands are blistered
But i’m a man that couldn’t stand to quit this, uhh
And conform to the norm, it’s like 24/7 till i’m off and i’m gone
Nine to five life with the fees and the loans
It’s suicide trying to keep up with the jones’s
Rise, be whoever you are, everyone needs to be someone, someone
Tonight, dance to the beat of the drums, everyone needs to be someone, someone
Oh oh oh, be whoever you are
Oh oh oh, you gotta believe in, gotta believe in
You gotta believe in love and hope
When hope is gone
Rise, be whoever you are, everyone needs to be someone, someone
Tonight, dance to the beat of the drums, everyone needs to be someone, someone
Be someone, everyone needs to be someone

Breakdown
04:41
|

|
Put me on a wire, unbrace me, get me higher and higher
I’m frightened and i’m falling, can’t you hear me calling you
Drag me to the edge and i promise, i will pledge to go with you
Tell me i can take it, tell me i can make it through
Cos every day i try and i try, and every day i wonder why
The world won’t stop and now the bombs are gonna drop from the sky
Today, i feel like breaking down, where there’s no-one around to save me
Today, is like no other day, forever winter, hope’s beginning to fade
This is getting serious, making me delirious, crazy (crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy)
Can’t i just be free now, can’t it just be me and you
Cos every day i try and i try, but i’m staring at a darkened sky
I might not win, but i will never give in ‘til i die
Today, i feel like breaking down, where there’s no-one around to save me
Today, is like no other day, forever winter, hope’s beginning to fade
So instead of crying and walking out, why can’t we just talk it out?
Cos we got something beautiful, something we can’t live without
Today, i feel like breaking down, where there’s no-one around to save me
Today, is like no other day, forever winter, hope’s beginning to fade
I’ll fly, i’ll throw my body down
So why, do i feel like breaking down?

Like I Never Met You
04:09
|

I won’t brace if i see your face, it will remind me
Everything i had i left behind me
I don’t care if i see you there, you’ll never get me
The bridges that i burn, will never let me let you get me
Gonna keep this feeling way down, way down, way down
Just gonna bury it deep down
Way down, way down, way down
It aint ever comin up, it’s gonna be like i never met you
Take my place, you can fill my space,
I’ll watch from the distance, broken to the point of no resistance
Gonna keep this feeling way down, way down, way down
Just gonna bury it deep down
Way down, way down, way down, it aint ever gonna show
Life goes on like i never met you, like you’ve been and gone
Life goes on like i never met you
Sometimes life’s gonna drag you down,
Make you feel like you don’t belong
Be strong, have faith, move on, it’s gonna be ok
You can bounce on back or you can hit the wall
Clear the fence, stumble and fall to the comfort zone
That you’ve always known, never a seed was sewn,
or a dream was grown with no backbone
Have faith!
Life goes on like i never met you, like you’ve been and gone
Life goes on like i never met you, be strong, have faith, move on
Life goes on like i never met you, it’s gonna be ok
Life goes on like i never met you

Alien
04:38
|
|||
|
I fell in love with an alien, came from above and then left again
A different kind, blew my mind, disappeared
She carried me high, flew me outta here
In a trail of light through the stratosphere
And then i fell from the stars to the ground
And she never again come around
So if you’re gonna leave and rip my heart out from my sleeve
Let me down gently, let me down gently
Yeah if you’re gonna go, turn off the lights, cancel the show
Let me down gently, let me down gently
Light years ahead from another world,
Left me for dead, sent me crashing down, spinning out of control
As i fell from the sky to the ground, i forever lost what i’d found
So if you’re gonna leave and rip my heart out from my sleeve
Let me down gently, let me down gently
Yeah if you’re gonna go, turn off the lights, cancel the show
Let me down gently, let me down gently
And i don’t know what it was, but it blew my brain sky high
I succumbed, my body numb, frozen, half blind, prepared to die
And i don’t know what it was, but i was free and i could fly
And if this is how it feels, i never wanna come down, never wanna come down
If this is how it feels i never wanna come down tonight
I can’t escape, i cant escape, i cant escape from that alien
So if you’re gonna leave and rip my heart out from my sleeve
Let me down gently, let me down gently
Yeah if you’re gonna go, turn off the lights, cancel the show
Let me down gently, let me down gently
I fell in love with an alien

Forever With You
03:57
|
|||
|
If there’s a wrong way to say this, i probably will
I’ve loved you like crazy for ages and i still feel like climbing the hill
You are the one who is second to none in my eyes
You look so beautiful tonight
If there’s a joke without laughter, a wind without the rain
That’s who i am
Empty and lost until after i get with you again
In you i’m revived and my world comes alive every time
You look so beautiful to me
I have found, someone i want around
Girl you could cry a river, and i promise you i wont let you drown
In you i see somewhere i want to be
Take from me everything just leave me forever with you
Oh woah oh, bring on the summer rain
Oh woah oh, let’s dance in the sun
Oh woah oh we can do anything, we’ve only just begun, we’ve only just begun
If now is the wrong time to say this, i couldn’t care less
I have found, someone i want around
Girl you could cry a river, and i promise you i wont let you drown
In you i see somewhere i want to be
Take from me everything just leave me forever with you
You are my everything, always, forever with you
Always forever, always forever, forever with you
Forever with you

Reverse The Future
04:28
|
|||
|
Awake me if this ever goes away
I took the pill and lay here for a day, but now i wanna go home
Remind me this was only meant to be
A moment that the world would never see
Cos now i wanna go home, but i cannot escape
Don’t tell me there’s a tomorrow, what’s done is done
And we can’t borrow time, we can’t press rewind
I won’t look to the future, yesterday’s gone but it goes on and on
It goes on and on in my mind
Defend me when the rules i must obey offend me
Tear me down, take me away
I just wanna go home, yeah i wanna go home, cos i am not ok
Don’t tell me there’s a tomorrow, what’s done is done
And we can’t borrow time, we can’t press rewind
How can we face the future, broken and gone, and we go on and on
We go on and on wasting time
Woah oh oh oh, i cant go back,
Woah oh oh oh, i cant go back to that
What do i care? What do i care?
Don’t tell me there’s a tomorrow, what’s done is done
And we can’t borrow time, we can’t press rewind
I won’t look to the future, yesterday’s gone but it goes on and on
It goes on and on while we play blind
I cant go back what’s done is done i cant go back (reverse the future)
I cant go back what’s done is done i cant go back (reverse the future)
I cant go back what’s done is done i cant go back (reverse the future)
I cant go back what’s done is done i cant go back to that
I cant go back to that

Tommy Gun

Tommy’s a friend of mine, a gentleman
Hair flowin’ from a red bandana, glowin’ like a summer sun
We met on centre stage, he came to fly
He blew ‘em all away like a rockstar from another time
Singing sweet child of mine
Oh Tommy, guns’n’roses shoulda wrote this song for you
Everyone i noticed sang the chorus back to you
Tommy Gun it’s true, the star that night was you
He left on an aeroplane, for southern skies
He said he’d be back again, but we haven’t seen him in a while
And i miss that wild child
Oh Tommy, guns’n’roses shoulda wrote this song for you
I was stunned, i froze as axl rose came screamin’ through ooh ooh ooh
And Tommy Gun i knew, the star that night was you
Livin’ every hour for a song and a reason
Burnin up the house in the moment believin’ yeah
Ah tommy gun, you got the party goin’
And we’ve never had so much fun (wooh sweet friend of mine)
Livin’ every hour for a song and a reason
Burnin up the house
Oh Tommy, guns’n’roses shoulda wrote this song for you
Everyone before us screamed the chorus as you flew ooh ooh ooh
Tommy Gun it’s true, the star that night was you
The star that night was you
Tommy, guns’n’roses shoulda wrote this for you

Broken Promise Land
03:53
|
|||
|
Here we stand, in the broken promise land
Hand in hand, neither one of us can understand
Incomplete, dreamers on a one way street
Dazed, confused defenceless
We were lovers in a sea of rain, drifting on the tide
Cruising on an open plain, touching down and taking flight
But how can we be that again, there’s nowhere left to hide
Sins, regrets, forgiven, but we cant forget
Silhouettes, our colourless and empty faces cannot accept
This fading truth, that we keep on running to
It’s vanishing from view, i’m weak, i’m restless
We were lovers in a sea of rain, drifting on the tide
Cruising on an open plain, touching down and taking flight
But how can we be that again, there’s nowhere left to hide
Cold discreet, secrets hidden underneath
Bittersweet, smiling at a face, a face you don’t believe
Days we swore in whispers through an open door
Long before the rain, the storm, the ending
A friend becomes an enemy, the winner cleans the slate
A plan so meticulous, there’s nothing more to calculate
A clock displays a time to strike
And love turns to hate, so how long can we wait
In the broken promise land
In the broken promise land

One Day I'll Make Money
02:59
|

One day i’ll make money, i’m gonna give it all away
Cos’ i don’t really need the money when i got what i got today
And one day i’ll have lovin’, i’m gonna give it all to you
Cos’ baby when you give me lovin’
It feels like all my dreams came true
I’ve got everything i need
I’ve got everything i’ll ever want
I’ve got everything i need
One day i’ll make money, believe me baby when i do
I’ll throw it from the highest rooftop
Cos’ it means nothin’ without you
And one day i’ll have lovin’, cos love is really all you need
No more devastation, peace in every nation
No more violence or greed
I’ve got everything i need
I’ve got everything i’ll ever want
I’ve got everything i need
I’ve got everything i’ll ever want today
Woah oh oh, woah oh oh oh
Woah oh oh, woah oh oh oh
Woah oh oh, woah oh oh oh
I’ve got everything i need, i’ve got everything i’ll ever want
I’ve got everything i need, i’ve got everything i’ll ever want
Woah oh oh, woah oh oh oh
I’ve got everything i need, i’ve got everything i’ll ever want
Woah oh oh, woah oh oh oh
I’ve got everything i need, i’ve got everything i’ll ever want today

Soldier
03:41
|

|
He was a soldier, not much older than me, when i was seventeen
They shipped him off to war to protect us all from tyranny
He wrote a letter, told his mum his hidden fear
It said “what am i doing here?, mama i don’t wanna kill,
I pray to god i never will, I love you dear”
And he was fighting for his country, so full of pride but so alone
And he was thinking of his family, and the life that he had known,
….. In that instant, life was over, he never came home
They gave him honours, praised the way that he had died,
His mum just cried and cried, her tears of sorrow on the flag
Her tomorrow’s never coming back
And he was fighting for his country, now she is proud but so alone
A broken heart, a vivid memory, a simple cross upon a stone
On that day her life was over, he never came home
Now i’m not saying we’re right, they’re wrong
I just kinda wish that we all could get along
Count the money, count the cost, count the precious lives we’ve lost
If there was no religion, would there be peace on earth?
No preaching hatred to the children, what’s this all worth?
Soldier we will not forget you, a fallen hero where you lay
And though we never met you, thanks for the sacrifice you made
Cos you were fighting for our country, and the life that we all know
God, why can’t this be over, why can’t they all come home?
Ooh ooh yeah they shipped him off to war, and he never came home

Rise Up
03:42
|
|||
|
We sit on the fence, we give our two cents, and never take the floor
But in our defence, it kinda makes sense to shut up and ignore
Act wise, think clever or we will stay like this forever
There’s nothin’ to eat, the kids on the street, they fight a losing war
The rich and elite, control and defeat, and keep on taking more
How can we wrestle with a power, making a million bucks an hour
Rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up
Rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up
Or this’ll never get better, yeah we’ll stay like this forever,
We’ll never get better, we’ll never get better rise up
Get off your chair, pull out your hair and make a bit of noise
Get on your feet, twitter and tweet, your fingers are your voice
Gotta be a go getter, a radical trendsetter
Rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up
Rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up
Stand and deliver, cos we aint taking this forever,
It’s now or never, it’s now or never
When you re-educate your mind from the kind that is blind to the grind
You will find that the time you assigned to define when the vine would unwind
Was a waste, out of place, just a taste of a race who displace and disgrace
Those who face all their days in a maze, no escape from the rape or the tape
They have wound all around, we are bound, like a hound to the ground, face down
As they pound pound pound without a sound
So what are we gonna do now, think we should march?
Alright, let’s march, together, we’ll show them how, we can do it
We can make this happen, we can get there, yeah we can get there, but we gotta
Rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up
Rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up
Stand and deliver, cos we aint taking this forever,
It’s now or never, it’s now or never
So give em the word, give em the bird and tell em where to go!

We go everywhere, we do everything, we’re so unaware of this love within
We flock together, like birds of a feather
We don’t get uptight, not the jealous type, never had a fight
Always us forever, yeah we never say never
And as far as i remember you were always there for me
January ‘til december, best friends always we would be
But last night it was so different than previously
We stayed out all night, drank ‘til the daylight
Something wasn’t right, we got so uptight
What’s wrong with my mind, why am i so blind, acting so unkind
Drugged up, unrefined
And if i remember, it was such a fun old time
‘til you slapped my face in anger, drenched my shirt in your cheap wine
Well i’m sorry but i have to say this
You really pissed me off last night, yeah i was wrong, but that ain’t right
So give me a hug my friend for life, and let me love you again tonight
You really pissed me off last night, yeah i was wrong, but that ain’t right
So give me a hug my friend for life, and let me love you again tonight
We got up at 3, you wouldn’t talk to me, so i let you be
‘cos you were acting all seriously, needing my sympathy
I made you a cup of tea, but you still cracked the shits with me
Then you surrendered saying two wrongs don’t make a right
Well i’m sorry but i still need to say this
You really pissed me off last night, yeah i was wrong, but that ain’t right
So give me a hug my friend for life, and let me love you again tonight
You really pissed me off last night, we were both wrong, but now we’re right
So give me a hug best friend tonight, and let me love you again for life
