New Light
I am looking at myself in brand new light
I am breaking the shattered reflection tonight
I am going to let go of the past and look towards the future
I am going to love myself and know i'm a shooting star
I will be happy once and for all
I will wash away my pain as the last tear falls
I will like my body for what it is
I will have you as my witnesses
I will take pictures and think i am georgous
I won't let any one hurt me or cause insecurties
I am breaking the shattered reflection tonight
I am looking at myself in a brand new light

Brand New Me
(Kris Bergsnes/Lee Thomas Miller)
That morning sun was burnin' in my eyes
I could see a brand new day
And all the hurt and anger weighin' on my heart
Had begun to drift away
I saw it written on a church marquee as I drove into town
Said today's a new beginning friend
And I had to laugh out loud, 'cause there's no doubt
I'm a brand new me
I've been shattered by the storm but I survived
I'm a brand new me
I found a revelation in the tears I cried
I opened up my eyes
Oh, what a change I see
I'm a brand new me
There's a warrior and a victim living deep
Inside all of us
We have to choose to fight or surrender
When the world beats us up
I know where my weakness lies,
but I know it's a fight that I can win
I may get broken trying to get up
But I can't wait to start again, I'm gonna start again
I'm a brand new me
I've been shattered by the storm but I survived
I'm a brand new me
I found a revelation in the tears I cried
I opened up my eyes
Oh, what a change I see
I'm a brand new me
Days come and go, yeah they come
and go like a road with no end
Hope fades but never dies
Just look at me catchin' my second wind
I'm a brand new me
I've been shattered by the storm but I survived
I'm a brand new me
I found a revelation in the tears I cried
I opened up my eyes
Oh, what a change I see
I'm a brand new me
I'm a brand new me
I'm a brand new me
I'm a brand new me

Oh Mirror
Mirror, mirror,
On the wall
Who's the THINNIST
One of all
Oh reflection,
I know its not me
I'm just too FAT
AND UGLY
Mirror, mirror,
On the wall
Who's the SKINNIEST
One of all
Oh reflection,
Stand up straight
Suck in your GUT
Then I may not hate
Mirror, mirror,
Clear and bright
Please don't WATCH
As I starve tonight
Oh reflection,
I'm stuck in this body
With food to fear
And you to HATE
Mirror, mirror,
Broken and shattered
Don't stare at ME
With this body battered.

Insurrection
insurrection...
or just the pot boiling over,
the plant breaking through the gound,
the leaf bursting from the bud,
the wind breaking down the door.
light breaking through the darkness,
the body breaking free of bonds.
the spirit breaking from the body,
the truth breaking from the silence.
hope breaking from despair,
caring breaking from the calloused....
the individual breaking from the crowd.
the many breaking from the few,
the man breaking from enslavement.
the pot boiling over...
be careful!
you'll burn your hand!

I Wish
Staring into the night
Come on shooting stars
Let me with on you
Remove these scars
Come on rain
Pour down on me
Wash away my pain
Come on day
Take away the night
Come on future
Get rid of the past
Give me a fighting chance
Come on love
Give me something
Give me lust
Come on courage
Give me some life
Come on commitment
Give me forever
Come on beauty
Give me you
Hello thunder storm
Give me lighting too
Come on shooting star
I have all these wishes so far
Come on happiness
Give me you
Go away loneliness
Give me you
Take my money
Give me health
Go away hunger
Let them eat
Shooting stars i need you tonight
Before day light
Breaking The Law
There I was completely wasting, out of work and down
All inside its so frustrating as I drift from town to town
Feel as though nobody cares if I live or die
So I might as well begin to put some action in my life
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
So much for the golden future, I cant even start
Ive had every promise broken, theres anger in my heart
You dont know what its like, you dont have a clue
If you did youd find yourselves doing the same thing too
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
You dont know what its like
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law

The Kid Is Hot Tonight
We just heard of a brand new wave
and we hope its here to stay
Well have to wait and see
if its half of what they say
We heard he opened up a brand new door
well you know thats what Im lookin for
well have to wait and see if it makes you shout for more
How do you like him so far?
How do you like his show?
How do you like the way he rocks and the way he rolls?
How do you like his image?
How do you like his style?
How do you like the way he looks and the way he smiles?
CHORUS:
The Kid is hot tonight
whoa so hot tonight
but where will he be tomorrow?
The kid, is hot tonight
whoa so hot tonight
but where will he be tomorrow
And we just heard of a brand new fad
and they say its gonna drive you mad
well have to wait and see if its the best you ever had
and we just heard of a brand new wave
we heard its headin for an early grave
well have to wait and see if theres anything we can save
(repeat chorus)
The kid is hot tonight
whoa so hot tonight
but where will he be tomorrow
The kid is hot tonight
whoa so hot tonight
but where will he be, where will he be?
The kid is hot tonight
whoa so hot tonight
but where will he be tomorrow?
The kid is hot tonight, whoa

Love Is The Only Light
Then the lights go down on me
When the truth is hard to see
When hope is fading out of site
Love is the only light
When my world becomes unreal
And the pain is all I feel
When I can't find the love I knew
It's sad but true
We find ourselves crying cos we can't make it last
We hope for the future then we reach for the past
When you find yourself alone tonight
Please believe me
Love is the only light
When I find no reasons why
And it's time to say goodbye
When there's nothing left to say or do
It's sad, sad but true
We find ourselves crying cos we can't make it last
We hope for the future then we reach for the past
When you find yourself alone tonight
Please believe me
Love is the only light
Burn my fingers
Feel the pain
Kiss the flame
And start again
And again
And again
And again
And again
And again
We find ourselves crying cos we can't make it last
We hope for the future then we reach for the past
When you find yourself alone tonight
Please believe me
Love is the only light
Love is the only light
When you find yourself alone tonight
Please believe me
Love is the only light

Shooting Star
Seen a shooting star tonight and I thought of you
Youre trying to break into another world
A world I never knew
I always kinda wondered if you ever made it through
Seen a shooting star tonight and I thought of you
Seen a shooting star tonight and I thought of me
If I was still the same, if I ever became what you wanted me to be
Did I miss the mark, overstep the line that only you could see
Seen a shooting star tonight and I thought of me
Listen to the engine, listen to the bell
As the last firetruck from hell goes rollin by
All good people are praying
Its the last temptation, the last account
The last time you might hear the sermon on the mount
Last radios playing
Seen a shooting star tonight slip away
Tomorrow will be another day
Guess its too late to say the things to you that you needed to hear me say
Seen a shooting star tonight slip away

trying to break my Habit
Memories consume
Like opening the wound
I'm picking me apart again
You all assume
I'm safe here in my room
Unless I try to start againI don't want to be the one
The battles always choose
'Cause inside I realize
That I'm the one confused
I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream.
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean.
I don't know how I got this way
I know it's not alright.
So I'm breaking the habit,
I'm breaking the habit
Tonight
Clutching my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I hurt much more
Than anytime before
I had no options left again
I'll paint it on the walls
'Cause I'm the one that falls
I'll never fight again
And this is how it ends
I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
But now I have some clarity
to show you what I mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So, I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
Tonight

My Aching Heart
I thought by now I'd forget
Give me a sign
I wanted more than the pain you left
It's here all the time
You're so out of reach,
A disappearing star
And still, when you look at me
You tear me apart
When you flow through me
Surround me and light the dark
Brand me and leave your mark
My aching heart
Is breaking again
We've turned the page,
And the summer's gone
Turning to fall
Memories paint the pictures like dreams
I hear you call
Was it only a dream
When you made love to me
And you filled my soul
made me whole
And watched me cry
My aching heart
And floating somewhere
You're there between pain and tears
Between my love and fear
Where no-one hears
And I've got nothing
No strength left to watch you fall
Nothing left at all

Alone
The old man sits alone his mood not so bright
He lost his wife on a cold December night
She battled cancer with a long hard fight
He holds a candle and asks if I have a light
I sit beside him and try to make it right
Son he says, I`ve just about lost my sight
I have no future; I just lay in bed all night
And when the sun does rise, I just look away instead
I`ve worked hard all my life
I fell in love and married the sweetest wife
Now i feel as though i`ve been stabbed with a knife
He lights the candle, It was her birthday tonight
He pulls out a card and he begins to write
I love you sweetheart everythings alright
Son, can you walk with me tonight
Walk me to her grave site
So i can place this candle so she can have some light
In which she can see this card tonight
A tear falls from his cheek, son this is really hard
At that moment, we saw a shooting star
Son he said, now you can walk me to my car

New day
It a brand new day
What a happy day
It a brand new moment
Make it a happy day
Forget about the bad time
And remember the good time
Great change in my life
The things i use to do
I do them no more
The wrong i use to do
I do them no more
It a great change in my life
The wrong made right
The corner turns bright
For there was light
There came the rain
To wash away the pain
The old life is gone
No not again
It a brand new day
What a happy day

Up In Mississippi Tonight
Sallys up in mississippi tonight
With a man she hardly knows
Sallys wearin brand new clothes
Opportunity dont knock twice
So sally said, bye, bye
I hope she is alright
Up in mississippi tonight
Sally left before the sun could rise
When the city man came to town
She turned his head around
It was love with just one look
When she saw the size of his pocketbook
Oh sallys doin fine
Shes up in mississippi tonight
But theres a mountain boy whos gonna remember you
And sally youre one old girl he hates to lose
But you did what you had to do
You know Im happy for you
But sometimes please think of me up there in biloxi
Sallys up in mississippi tonight
Stayin in a big hotel
Rich man payin the bill
Drivin a brand new car
Drinkin in fancy bars
Oh sallys havin a time
Shes up in mississippi tonight
Sallys up in mississippi tonight
Sallys up in mississippi tonight
Sallys up in mississippi tonight

(Hurt Poem) A Repetitive Break Down
I was breaking down when I got with you
I was breaking down when I left you
I am breaking down just thinking about you.
Curing the world one person at a time.
In the body souls and minds.
My first true love.
Absence from god above.
A sickness it has become.
Constantly being undone.
When push comes to shove.
I just couldn't hurt you enough.
The wounds left me even more numb.
I was breaking down when I got with you
I was breaking down when I left you
I am breaking down just thinking about you.
Every fight was our last.
Surrendering to my past.
In it lives a silent kingdom.
Of knights king and queens.
Romance with a wicked dance.
That still haunts me.
I'm not a blind man for I can see.
The fire still burns.
But the light is just never the same.
My heart has been forever stained.
My head urns to just be empty.
I was breaking down when I got with you
I was breaking down when I left you
I am breaking down just thinking about you.
You completed me as only the one could.
As only one should.
To stubborn to admit I was ever wrong.
I was never wrong.
Drowning under my own shallow ego
Suffocating, the plastic wraps right over my head.
Oh it's killing, its stealing, oh its taking the air away from me.
I just need to breath.
I'm so sorry that I have this disease.
Crucified with her eyes.
Somebody dig the hole and just bury me.
I was breaking down when I got with you
I was breaking down when I left you
I am breaking down just thinking about you.

Like opening the wound

Unless I try to start again

Catch My Fall
I wake up feeling lost without you
And the pain reminds me that Im all alone
Those dreams we had, are now a nightmare
I feel just like a dog without a bone
Now is now and then was then
But I cant get used to being without you
Its a brand-new start and now I know that I shouldve
But I never ever thought Id miss your eyes
Say here we go again
All I need is you tonight
Why dont you call
All I need is you tonight
To catch my fall
Id die for you over and over again
But I guess youve heard it all before
You say times have changed, changed your ways
But your absence makes me need you more and more
Its a brand-new start and now I know that I shouldve
Loved you then...
All I need is you tonight
Why dont you call
All I need is you tonight
To catch my fall
All I need is you tonight
Why dont you call
All I need is you tonight
To catch my fall- thats all
Solo
All I need is you tonight...

I'm Looking For A Shooting Star
Outside on the deck
Looking into the sky at the stars
Its dark and chilly out
I'm looking for a shooting star
To wish upon tonight
Trying to find a way to rid this pain
If only a shooting star would pass, my way
I would be able to wish upon it tonight
And wish all this pain away
This pain is bringing me down
Feels like the pain is a load on my back
Ready to move on without pain and move on with life
Ready to wish upon a star and wish all this away
Wish all the pain away
Because I'm tired of it all

Tonight
Pattys working, but shes watching the clock
Shes in the back room counting stock
And down in a warehouse out by the dock
Jesses lifting crates and breaking rock
But when the whistle blows to end the daily fight
And the working forces turn out the light
Jesse takes that little girl and he holds her tight
As the day fades away he says
Were all that matters tonight
Tonights the night, I know Im right
And heart to heart, well make it tonight
So hold me tight, and love me right
The world can wait for tomorrow tonight
Patty comes like an angel and takes his hand
Jesse says, baby, Ive got a plan
He says, I wanna get married and make a stand
But theres just one thing you gotta understand
Now the pressure of living and the daily fight
Could hurt us in time if our perspective aint right
So shut the door and put out the light
And baby, be here, because were all that matters tonight
Tonights the night, I know Im right
And heart to heart, well make it tonight
So hold me tight, and love me right
The world can wait for tomorrow tonight
Break your back from nine to five
Sweating blood just to stay alive
Running home to the harbor light
Safe and warm, in love so right, tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight,
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
Tonights the night, I know Im right
And heart to heart, well make it tonight
So hold me tight, and love me right
The world can wait for tomorrow tonight
Tonights the night, I know Im right
And heart to heart, well make it t tonight
So hold me tight, and love me right
The world can wait for tomorrow tonight
Tonights the night, I know Im right
And heart to heart, well make it tonight

Silvers Home Tonight
Funny how she still remembers
Those words of love that got him nowhere
Even though she knows hes calling
She never finds the way to show her feelings
She doesnt mind the hours shes keeping
Hes waking when shes sleeping
For him it means so much to hear her voice
Shes home tonight
Silvers home tonight
And in the morning light
Shell feel much better
Home tonight, shell stay home tonight
Shell be sleeping light
Till he calls her again
Even though they didnt know it
Standing in the shadow love was waiting
Shed been his friend for such a long time
But never told the boy her heart was breaking
Silver had no way of knowing
That secretly his love was growing
And now hes coming back to stay
Shes home tonight
Silvers home tonight
And in the morning light
Theyre gonna be together
Home tonight, silvers home tonight
She can hear him saying Ill never leave you again
She could only wait
Till the time was right
It was never too late
Shes home tonight
Silvers home tonight
And in the morning light
Theyre gonna be together
Home tonight
Silvers home tonight
She can hear him saying Ill never leave you again
