You Cant Hide The Real You
i try and try to keep him in,
but he refuses to stay in side,
we talk and play when no one near,
but when they come i hide in fear,
he sits and waits all day long,
and when i say get inside,
he tells me to stay quiet,
so i duck and wait until its safe,
the very next day we sat and played,
for we are alike in many ways,
we care for eachother,
the only difference is he is violent and i am not,
he is me and i am him,
we share the same mind,
sometimes he stays inside,
and wait to fight,
i try and try to keep him in,
but all he says is,
you cant hide the real you,
like i said i am him and he is me.

World Without Love
Please lock me away
And dont allow the day here inside
Where I hide withe my loneliness
I dont care what they say
I wont stay in a world without love
Birds sing out of tune
And raindrops hide the moon
Im okay here Ill stay
With my loneliness
I dont care what they say
I wont stay in a world without love
So I wait and in awhile
I will see my true love smile yeah
He may come I know not when
But when he does Ill know
So baby until then lock me away
And dont allow the day here inside
Where I hide with my loneliness

Overcome
I was raised to believe what I see
So I pray to God
Give me strength
Help me breathe
When they suck
Life from me
Somethings wrong Anything
CHORUS-
Wrong with me
I dont see
Anything Wrong with me
So I write and I pray
And I live day to day
And I wait
For the sun
And I love everyone
Still they find
Something wrong
CHORUS
You cant hide what inside whats inside,
You cant hide what inside whats inside,
You cant hide what inside whats inside
You cant hide what inside when you die
You cant hide whats inside when you die you will die
(break me break me down)
You cant hide whats inside when you die,
You cant hide whats inside when you die,
You cant hide whats inside when you die,
You cant hide whats inside when you die
You will die, You will die, You will die

Fear and Desire
The smiling face of Fear looks
And peers upon me.
He tells me of his sister
Desire, where she lives.
His friendly glare is harsher
When he speaks of her.
He does not want me to search,
For I may find her.
It seems Fear is protective,
Trying to preserve
Her safety and her presence,
But I wish no harm.
I only seek her for knowledge,
Her gentle wisdom.
I only pine to know her ways,
Her soft, loving ways.
Fear challenges my motives,
Suspecting ill will
From my better intentions.
I remain quiet.
I do not utter a word.
Fear readily twists
The connotations of them,
So I keep silent.
Fear would like to pull my tongue
From my mouth, dripping
Small puddles of the language
I would like to say.
He senses evil inside
My voiceless larynx.
He waits for the verbiage;
To manipulate.
Fear would rather define me
In his sly approach—
Misguide me with misfortune—
To hide his sister.
I can wait through his mind games
To find happiness.
Some day soon, he will submit:
Fear is impatient.
I stare through him until then,
Looking to Desire.
Like her brother, Fear, she smiles,
Peering upon me.

Uh!
Why cant I decide why my feelings I hide?
Always screwing with my mind, a thorn in my spine.
Oh sure, it feels fine, wasting all our time.
In the back of my mind, a thorn in my spine.
Wait! see it before my eyes.
Why? do I turn away?
Looking all the time, at your face so blind.
Feeling uptight, always the same fight.
Hey man now decide, go ahead take your time.
Kissing all the time, that thorn in my spine.
Wait! you cannot see inside
Why! play yourself out that way
Why! you and me always hate
Wait! werent you my friend?
The pain in which I could not feel!
Hey man look inside, now you need your own life.
Remember me guy? that thorn in your spine.
Waiting all the time, Im doing mighty fine.
Remember me guy? the thorn in your spine.
Wait! you cannot see inside.
Why? play yourself out that way
Why? you and me always hate
Wait! werent you my friend
Wait! you were my friend.

Needing Instant Pity
You know I know
You think I'm indecisive.
I know you know
Inside I try to hide it.
Like a river flows so free
Until it empties into the sea.
I wish all the thoughts I had...
Were easy to be seen.
I'm needing instant pity!
You know I know
You think I'm indecisive.
I know you know
Inside I try to hide it!
If I said, 'Here is my life! '
Would you treat me very good?
If I gave you a reason to stay...
Would you promise that you could,
Always treat me better...
No matter what the weathercast?
You know I know
You think I'm indecisive.
I know you know
Inside I try to hide it.
Come what may
My needs are real to me.
I will pray to find another way...
To share with you my secrets,
If you will never leak them in dismay!
You gotta help me chase these storms away.
I hope this wish is bliss...
And not decay!
You know I know
You think I'm indecisive.
I know you know
Inside I try to hide it.
Like a river flows so free
Until it empties into the sea.
I wish all the thoughts I had...
Were easy to be seen.
I'm needing instant pity now.
Can you now instantly pity me?
I can not quit...
It sits and bothers me!

A Girl Who Is Lonely
There she sits,
All alone and in the dark,
No body cares,
Whether she is even there,
She questions to herself,
Does anyone care about me?
And wonders whether she is even seen,
She sits alone,
Feeling invisable,
Feeling scared,
All of these emotions inside,
Not knowing how to hide,
She tries to stay strong,
She tries to be brave,
To hide all of the pain inside,
She thinks of all of her past,
Wondering what she ever did wrong,
What she did to deserve all of this,
She sits alone,
No more tears to cry,
No more words to speak,
A single person speaks,
Startling her,
She looks around,
To find she is the only one there,
The one being spoken to,
She begins to feel part of the world,
And feels visable.

Lost And Found
You know the question, find the answer
Stirring deep within your mind
Don't Have to Promise, You have a reason
For what it is you need to find
I was searching, until I found it
And I saw it in you
It seems so real, but I can feel me
Getting closer to you
If clocks could stop, time wouldn't waste
And I could tell you once more
That we are running, without eachother
There's not much to live for
I tried to find, the side you hide,
The side that pushes me away,
You're standing close so, I can tell you
That I wish you would stay
I wouldn't know myself
I'm lost without you here
If you could see my side
I will wait for you, no matter what you do
Cause you're a part of me now
We will see this through
Go on to something new
We were lost but now we're found
As days go by, you're fading faster
Looking for something new
It's hard to notice, you're looking past me
When I'm right within your view
I wouldn't know myself
I'm lost without you here
If you could see my side
I will wait for you, no matter what you do
Cause you're a part of me now
We will see this through
Go on to something new
We were lost but now we're found
It's been a bumpy road
I'll try to carry your load
I'll try to understand
Your fate is in your hands
If you could see my side
I wouldn't know myself
I'm lost without you here
If you could see my side
I will wait for you no matter what you do
Cause you're a part of me now
We will see this through
Go on to something new
We were lost but now we're found
We were lost and now we're found

Stay Safe In My Eyes
Do not blame me
because I care,
Losing you is a nightmare,
Nothing for me stays the same,
Morning or night,
Darkness or light,
Stormy winter
or summer bright,
If I'll die or stay alife,
For nothing after losing you I can ever care,
You may always stay safe,
In my eyes,
You know that you have a house,
My heart always protects and cares,
With prayers watches your ways,
Crown angels may surround you always,
How can I without those smiling eyes
ever survive,
.
Stay safe always inside my eyes.

So Good To See You

Ooh, its so good to see you
I couldnt wait another day
Ooh, I hope everyone missed you
You know they want you to stay
Home in one month
Couldnt feel better if I tried

I cant expect to be a household word

I dont expect to be seen or heard

Ooh, its so good to see you
I couldnt wait another day
So good to see you
Ooh, I hope everyone missed you
You know they want you to stay
Home in one week
Gettin so much closer all the time
Seems like overnight
Its better thatll be a surprise
We shouldnt get to be too close friends
I dont mind, Ive nothin to hide
We couldnt get to be too close friends
You wont mind if youve nothin to hide
Ooh, its so good to see you
I couldnt wait another day
So good to see you
Oo, I hope everyone missed you
You know they want you to stay
Dont stop to think what youre doin
Ill surprise you anytime
Dont stop to do what youre thinkin
Youre just wastin your time
Ooh, its so good to see you

Ill Wait
(taylor dayne, shep pettibone, tony shimkin)
Ill wait by the window
Ill wait by the door
To make sure you dont come home after dark
Now, Ill wait by the phone
Ill make sure Im at home
Ill be there when youre needin you know what
Now, I can tell you - by things you do
You dont know that Ive been watching you
Now, I dont understand your games or crazy plans
Im here for you baby, stop playing with my mind
Well, I know what
I feel inside
I trust enough in what my heart tells me
Havent I been good
The way I should
Just act like a man and stay here and stand by my side
Ill wait just a little more time
Just a little more time
To move in a new direction
Ill wait just a little more time
Till you make up your mind
You know that you needed me too
Why are you feelin so scared and unwilling
To be there - when someones there for you
Why time has to be so unkind for no reason
But love has no measure - this is true
Well, I know what
I feel inside
I trust enough
In what my heart tells me
Havent I been good
The way I should
Im willing, Im able
I need you to give me a sign
Ill wait just a little more time
Just a little more time
To move in a new direction
Ill wait just a little more time
Till you make up your mind
I know that you needed me too
Ill wait
Yes, Ill wait
Just a little more time
Baby, new directions
Ill wait just a little more time
Till you make up your mind
I know that you needed me too
Baby, havent I been good to you
The way that I said I would be
Why are you leaving me now
Well, I know what
I feel inside
I trust enough
In what my hearts been telling me
Havent I been good
The way I should
Im willing, Im able
I need you to give me a sign

Off & On
Do you hide from the way you feel inside?
Do you rage?
Can you turn the page in time?
If its on your mind its real
Do you take the thrown away?
Try to find a place to stay sometimes?
Thought Id try it for a while
Justify the only reasons why I try
Too late tonight
Too tired to fight with you
cause its off and on
Just another song
I dont want to hear no more
Do you fight what you know is right sometimes?
Do you find any peace of mind sometimes?
If its on your mind its real

Take It Out Sometimes
Wide
Wider than the cut that's through my pride
That I'm locked inside a box
And I will hide
Under my bed
So I can take it out sometimes
Take it out sometimes
Be
All I want to be
But do I see
That I'm only half a person
All I need
Is a good night's sleep
You know I stay awake sometimes
I stay awake sometimes
Say
What you're trying to say
Are you afraid
I'm not listening anyway
So do you wait
Till you can get it out straight
Do you think of me sometimes
Think of me sometimes
Is it more than just sometimes
More than just sometimes
When I'm down
So do you wait
Till you can get it out straight
Do you know
All these things I've got to say
Do you think of me sometimes
Think of me sometimes
Is it more than just sometimes
More than just sometimes
When I'm down

Jane Doe
Why, you just won't leave my mind
Was this the only way
I couldn't let you stay
Run away, hide away
the secrets in your mind
Sacrificed just her life
for a higher love
No matter how many stones you put inside
She always keeps on floating in your mind
With every turn of your head you see her face again
until the end, over and over again
Why, you just won't leave my mind
Was this the only way
I couldn't let you stay
Told the truth she laughed at you
Something snapped inside
She had to go or they would know
all you tried to hide
The sins of your life are now catching up with you.
You can't stay ahead, there's nothing you can do
With every turn of your head you see her face again
until the end, over and over again
Why, you just won't leave my mind
Was this the only way
I couldn't let you stay

Seasons
One heart can make a difference
One choice can change it all
One voice can travel the distance
And be heard all around the world
Would you make a sacrifice
If you knew that it was right?
Well the answers there if you look inside
Will you run and hide or will you fight the fight?
Cause there's a power inside you
And there's a battle to be won
And every victory has a beginning
The way it always has begun
With the power of one
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
One day, you'll realize it
That one hope is all you need
One dream that we can all share
One dream we all believe
And we will make that sacrifice
Just becasue we know it's right
And we will face the answer that's there inside
We won't run and hide
We're gonna fight the fight
There's a power inside you (inside you)
There's a battle to be won (be won, be won)
Every victory has a beginning
The way it always has begun
With the power of one
With the power of one
Yeah
We'll look inside
We won't run and hide
No, we'll fight the fight
There's a power inside you (can you feel the power,
can you feel it, feel it)
There's a battle to be one (battle to be won)
Every victory has a beginning
The way it always has begun
With the power of one

Heart
There’s a place in my heart which is empty inside
A place in my heart where I try to hide
To hide from the pains that hurt me so
And I turn, but nowhere to go.
So I hide like the child deep inside
Who is afraid to take the step of a journey.
That may lead to better things in life
But refuses to make a sacrifice.
But the heart has a mechanism
which automatically protects
You from things that you fear
And takes you on a journey
To wipe away the tears.
Don’t ever hide from what
The heart may bring, because
Deep inside of us there s a voice that sings.

Hi There, Outside World
Hi there, Outside world,
It's been a while, you see.
I've missed you lots, and tons, and much,
And we all know you've missed me.
Hi there, Outside world,
Come inside and stay a while,
No one will know where you've gone,
In here, from the world, so vile.
Hi there, Outside world,
Aren't you curious where I've been?
Don't you want to know everything,
Like why, and how, and when?
Hi there, Outside world,
It's much better inside of doors,
No noises, or sickness, or hate, or death,
Here there's only peace, no wars.
Hi there, Outside world,
Wouldn't you love to get away?
Just leave them there, Forget they care,
Just come inside and stay.
Hi there, Outside world,
We can be friends, just you and me,
We can sing, and dance, and talk,
And for once, we'll both be free.
Hi there, Outside world,
That world is a scary place,
Wouldn't you rather a nice warm house,
Where evil leaves no trace?
Hi there, Outside world,
Come live with me, my dear,
You'll never go another day,
While cowering in fear.
Hi there, Outside world,
Please don't ask to leave,
I need someone to stay with me,
It's lonely, you'll believe.
Wait, Outside world,
I can convince you, you'll see,
Just stay here for evermore,
Leave those people be.
Outside world, I need your help,
Don't leave me here to die,
It's sad, and I feel alone,
In my spare time, I cry.
What's that you say, Outside world?
Leave my house of sadness?
Go with you to your outside place?
My word, now that's just madness!
Listen here, Outside world,
I'm never welcome back,
I've left there once, and can't return,
Of that, I'm sure as fact.
Silly little Outside world,
You say I'm missed a lot,
How could that be, Outside world,
If I've never been sought.
I see all, Outside world,
And I know they do not want me,
I'd rather stay here, in my mind,
Than live amongst the happy.
I fear I can't, Outside world,
This house is all I need,
I know it's meager, and so dark,
But, I must live my creed.
I swore an oath, Outside world,
That I should live in here for ever,
Never leave, Never be,
With or without endeavor.
I keep my word, Outside world,
This place is where I stay,
I never can go back, you see,
I've gone too far away.
Goodbye, Outside world,
I really enjoyed our chat,
I'm sorry to hear you have to go,
Devastated, at that.
So long, Outside world,
If I never see you again,
Tell the world what happened here,
Don't let it happen to them.

An Echoing Sadness
Sad is the word to best describe, this feeling I have echoing inside,
Even though Christ lives there, and I know that He really does care.
It is something that on the outside, that today I simply can not hide.
There is an absence of joy within, when I take my mind off of Him.
It is then that the peace in my heart, from within begins to depart.
It’s the same peace, that one day, will in my heart eternally stay.
But in this world filled with grief, I can lose my focus and peace.
But with The Lord deep inside, His presence will not always hide.
So when my world becomes bleak, it’s Christ’s face I must seek,
And in time Christ will restore, that awesome peace of The Lord.
Circumstances can play a part, in the role of peace in my heart.
But friend, this just will not be, if I focus on Christ and Eternity.
For this is not my ultimate home, this darkened earth that I roam,
I need to be fixed on Christ above, for His presence and His love.
My friend, I don’t know why it is, that my heart does get like this.
But I know that in times like this, Christ is my God and I am His.
Whatever mind I may be in, He’s the same as He’s always been.
And if I have a troubled heart, Christ as my friend, will not depart.
Christ will stay right by my side, and it is in Him that I will abide,
As God, Christ is not denied, and He will restore my peace inside.

Violent Side
Here comes the night
Here comes the anger
Hidden so deep inside
No one can see
Behind these eyes
There walks a stranger
Wandering through the dark
Following me.
Control the violent side
Control the violent side
Control the violent side
Control the violent side.
Electric light
Shining on your block
Sayin to everyone
The power is on
While your alarm
Set up for safety
Keeps out invaders who come
But still cant control.
Control the violent side
Control the violent side
Control the violent side
Control the violent side.
Got to fight to control the violent side
Every day and night
Ive got to fight to control it.
