Colors Of The World

Sons and daughters
Look up and know
Light up your faces
Let them glow
And you can feel the colors of the world
Just like a book
You'll open wide
Inside yourself
You'll see the skies
And you'll become a color of the world
Please be kind
Don't burn your eyes
On the sun that shines
On us
Take the time
And learn to fly
And then, go, go, go
All that comes and all that goes
Must see it soar and then explode
And you will bleed the colors of the world
Hand in hand
Or back to back
We're stuck together
Fact is fact
And all make up the colors of the world
Please be wise
Don't turn your eyes
From the sun that shines on us
Take your time
You'll need the guide
And then go, go, go

You Can't Stop Me Now

You can't stop me now
And it's all over your face
Stop me now
And if you wanted to try
Wanted to try it
You can't
I know you can't
And I've got more than you did count on
And talking out you realize what a dummkopf
Cause I'll be waiting for ya
And I'm holding for a good time
Yes, I'm holding for a good time
You can't stop me now
My mind's all over the place
Stop me now, and it's all over your face
And I know you can't
Cause I've got secrets
And you've got gout
And I've got more than you did count on
Finding out you realize what a dummkopf
But I'll be waiting for ya
And I'm holding for a good time
Yes I'm holding for a good time
To tell to you you're mine

People (Movin' On)
04:53
|

|
People, at all times
Lose all control
It's now time, see all,
People
People, in line
Crowd's calm down,
Bright light, on fire
People
People go, and they never can back
No, I don't wanna live like that
I'm movin' on
Go, go, go
People, a loud cry
See it all around
As grass grows, wind blows
People, landslide
See through dark eyes
People movin' on, they say

The Prettiest
02:01
|

|
Well, we all just want to have it all
The prettiest one of the kind
And some just get to have it all
The prettiest one of the kind
Never knowing if it's ever true
Getting all the lovely things you'd choose
Hear it out you know you've got a voice
Wait and see if time will sing-a-long
Here it out, scream in doubt
Know if there is something for you
See without, fear and doubt
All your dreams would come true
Cause we all just want to have it all

I can see it in your eyes
The way it twists and turns inside
And I know the way it feels
When it hurts to even breathe
Remember you were young and bright
Wouldn't let the clouds fill up your sky
Made your faith in mystery
Never took it too seriously
You can't hide from their eyes
You can't seem to disguise
It won't help to confide
They can't hold your insides
You're not the only one
You wish everything was clear
But as you climb they'll hold your feet
Direct you towards their own desires
And your world will turn to fire
Don't you hide when you've sunk
Can get worse, gets rough
Believe me, they won't bluff
They'll shut you, out of hope
You're not the only one,
Who will turn around in fear
Smile as you are in tears
Let it go, and show the way you feel

Break/Down/Baby
03:44
|
|||
|
You don't ever want to say
Our time is now
You just wanna hesitate
Our time is now
You just slag around and take
What I've already found
You don't ever want to change your face
It's the same old sound
You never seem to pick up the pace
You're in, your own cloud
You just float away in space
There on the ground
Cause you break down
Break down, baby
Break down, under pressure
No excuses left to make
It's all around you
Taking while you just play
And wear their hearts out
You just seem to be in phase
And fading fast now
There's no moment left to raise
It's on, the ground
You just break down
Genius

Out Of Nowhere
03:22
|
|||
|
Well if I can't wait for you anymore
Then you know there's something else
I can't wait to see you up
And running like before
Cause you know me
And you know I'd be there on the floor
Waiting for you
And you know I'd be there at the door
Out of Nowhere
I can't wait to see you up
Knowing you belong
I cant wait to see us out
Knowing we'll be strong

A Lot To Say
04:13
|

|
I've got a lot to say
They think they've got a hold of me
Live in and out of touch
Taking the world in front of me
Do you feel, like every lasting moment's a loss
I know what you think is the cause
Taking every single part of me
You've got a lot to say
You think you've got a hold of me
Dead in the loser's luck
Go on and take the rest of me
Cause all you've seen is
No heart, no sway
Hold on, you say
There's no real have
Stand all reason, over your head
Go on, say goodbye
When all you've seen has
Turned your back straight
Backwards you step
No luck, no save
Forget your reason
Take all you've said
Go on, say goodbye
You've got a lot to say

Walk Right Out
03:13
|
|||
|
It's easy to see, you'll listen to nothing
Your mind's all locked, shut up and sealed
I didn't know that it couldn't be even
Riding alone as a broken wheel
When I get a chance, I'll enjoy every moment
Cause I can't, get a hold on you
Now I'm running out fast, cause I'm getting nowhere
You'd think I didn't care anymore
Cause you can't find any reason why I'd
Walk right out on you
And you won't get any feeling as I
Walk right out on you
And I know it won't be easy but I
Walk right out on you, gone
Going for broke, fighting for nothing
There must be a way before it's done
Stuck in a mould, they present you as something
But I just feel like a loaded gun
When I get out, I can have my emotion
Cause I can't, get a hold on you
Now I'm running out fast, and I'll stay in motion
Til you think I don't care anymore
Cause I just don't care anymore

I’m leaving it on your shoulders to see
If it will be bought, the price of our being
Let’s open it up, the package of treats
We might find a different view
We may have knew
We covered it up, the mess that we made
It’s growing a bug, and we’ve gotta change
The burden I’ve brought, the ache and displace
And I know it’s made you blue,
I just wish I thought it through
Cause we could belong again
Let’s make a hard attempt
No breaking, fold or bend
If we’re to make it up
Even the lonely know, friend
But we will go on
Precious indeed
And it won’t be long
‘Til you will agree
It’s simple to know
The joy you can bring
We’ll sound off another cue
Come running up through you
We could belong again
Let’s make a hard attempt
No resting on regret
If we’re to make it up
Even the lonely know, friend
