Exodus
My black backpack's stuffed with broken dreams
20 bucks should get me through the week
Never said a word of discontentment
I've thought it a thousand times but now
I'm leaving home
[CHORUS:]
Here in the shadows
I'm safe
I'm free
I've nowhere else to go but
I cannot stay where I don't belong
Two months pass by and it's getting cold
I know I'm not lost
I am just alone
But I won't cry
I won't give up
I can't go back now
Waking up is knowing who you really are
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Show me the shadow where true meaning lies
So much more dismay in empty eyes

Swindler
I've been mistaken
you swindle once again
now there's no question
I was wrong
and now I stand alone
just a dent in your throne
your true colors shown
you don't belong
(chorus)
and now I'm lost
and now I run from you
and now I see just how I bleed from you
and all the lies, all the lies
how could I let you in
but now it's clear, I went along for the ride
hey Mr. Merry Men
I know you'll come again
'till you find just what you're looking for
if I'm you little lamb
oh would you leave again
oh no, I bet you'd stay for more
(chorus)
and now I'm findin' out that you are nothin' 'bout
what I thought you were
and now I understand just how you work your plan
first you're warm and then you just burn
(chorus)
and I will make my way through another day
cause I know beter now
and you'll drop another line on someone elses time
but in my you still resound

After All
Seth Swirsky)
Night-
And the world is fast asleep
I will hold you here and keep
All our secret dreams and plans
You-
Never thought our love could last
Now you've put that in the past
'Cause you finally understand
CHORUS
That after all
The times you told me that we'd never be good together
After all things you said
That made me think that you'd never call
Now you've turned around and told me
That you want to stay here forever
And you're back here in my arms
Where you belong
After all
We-
All the promises we made
All the words we never said
Never knowing what was right
You didn't know-
That the love we used to share
Wasn't 'cause it wasn't there
We'll make up for it tonight
CHORUS
We were young
And your dreams took you places far from me
I was wrong
To believe
That you'd go
'Cause here you are

Safe

Here I am alone with You
Quietly I talk to You
You said the truth would set me free
So here I am surrendering

I know I can let your promise be my hope
And I know until You take me home

I'm safe (I'm safe), safe 'cause You love me
Safe (I'm safe), safe all because Your name
Has power to calm the ocean
When everything changes I'm safe

With peace beyond all knowing
This love is deep, it shelters me
And I'm safe within Your reach

Though the odds are stacked against me
Though I'm running out of time
My heart is breaking
But I know You are mine
So I let You see into me as
You hold me in Your hand
My heart is on my sleeve
I'm safe because You understand
You understand

Lies, Lies, Lies
[verse 1]
I see you coming through the door
Creepin
Its a quarter past four
And
I smell the scent of cheap perfume
Who is she?
You step in the room
With a guilty look upon your face
Busted
And you started to say
but really baby I can explain
Save your breath
Ive got something to say
[chorus:]
Every word you say is
Lies, lies, lies
And now Im leaving you, so
Bye, bye, bye
And I cant take no more of this
Cry, cry, cryin
You know that you aint @#%$
With your
Lies, lies, lies

Dont bother to apologize
Its too late
Ive heard it all before
And
This should come as no surprise
Im leaving
Ive packed my things
Cause Im through with this merry go around
Im getting off
Ive finally found
My strength waiting down
I should have left your @#%$
After the first round
Ohhhh

Every word you say is
Lies, lies, lies
And now Im leaving you, so
Bye, bye, bye

Tell your boys

Get off your knees
Oh, baby, please
Go ahead and tell the truth

You see this fire in my eyes
Its all because of you
All you do is lie

Every word you say is
Lies, lies, lies (goodbye, yeah. whooo)

Santa Rosa
Id give anything to be back home in santa rosa
How I wish this road would take me home where I belong
cause I have found no other place where I will stay
Im tired and all my dreams have failed along the way
Id give anything to be back home in santa rosa
Though I wonder what my folks would think about me now
I guess Ive changed, like people do, when things go wrong
But in the end, somehow I know, well get along
Chorus
Santa rosa Ill be back to stay
Im on my way
Santa rosa Ill be back to stay
Id give anything to be back home in santa rosa
How I wish to see the old house where I used to live
And all my friends, will they be there, when I come home
How I regret the day when I set out to roam

Id give anything to be back home in santa rosa (3)

Before the Storm - Jonas Brothers, with Miley Cyrus
vs.1 No, this isn't what I wanted,
Never thought it'd come this far.
Thinkin' back to where we started,
And how we lost all that we are.
We were young and times were easy,
But I could see it's not the same.
Standing here, but you don't see me,
Give it all for that to change.
I don't want to lose her,
Don't want to let her go.
(chorus)
Standing out in the rain,
Need to know if it's over,
Cause I would leave you alone.
I'm flooded with all this pain,
Knowing that I'll never hold her,
Like I did before the storm.
vs.2 With every strike of lightning,
Comes a memory that lasts.
Not a word is a left unspoken,
As the thunder starts to crash.
Maybe I should give up.
(chorus)
I'm trying to keep the lights from going out,
And the clouds from ripping out my broken heart.
They always say a heart is not a home,
Without the one who gets you through the storm.
Standing out in the rain,
Knowing that it's really over,
Please don't leave me alone.
I'm flooded with all this pain,
Knowing that I'll never hold ya,
Like I did before the storm.
Before the storm.

On With The Show
Frankie died just the other night.
Some say it was suicide,
But we know
How the story goes.
With his six string knife
And his street wise pride
The boy was a man before his time,
And she knew
All their dreams would come true.
But ya see, Frankie was fast,
Too fast to know.
He wouldn't go slow
Until his lethal dose.
And she knows
He'll finally come too close.
[Chorus]
Well, on with the show.
Going on with the show.
Come on baby
No, no, no.
Oh my, my, my . . .
[repeat]
He was bad.
He was never good.
But one thing that he understood.
And she knew
All those lies would come true.
The time has come and
He's paid his dues.
Suzy finally got the news.
She always knew
This day would come soon.
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
He was stopped on a dime
With a switchblade knife.
Some damn punk went and
Took Frankie's life.
And she knew
She'd have to pull through.
Broken down, with his broken dreams,
With a wink of an eye
Said "Suzy, listen to me
You must go
On with the show."
[Chorus]

Oh baby!

One More Chance
By eric clapton
Give me one more chance to make it up to you.
Give me one more chance to show what I can do.
Let me prove to you that my love is strong.
Wont you come back home, thats where you belong.
Oh baby, wont you give me one more chance?
Wont you give me one more chance?
Well, the sun wont shine and it refuse to rain,
And I bang my heard, but I feel no pain.
Then I tell myself that I could start anew,
But I know darn well it all depends on you.
Chorus
So if you hear this song, you might change your mind
And give a thought to me, I wont be hard to find,
And Ill promise you to do the best I can,
Change my evil ways and be your loving man.
Chorus
So, give me one more chance to make it up to you.
Give me one more chance to show what I can do.
Let me prove to you that my love is strong.

You Belong To Me
Verse 1
Why'd you tell me this
Were you looking for my reaction
What do you need to know
Don't you know I'll always be your girl
You don't have to prove to me you're beautiful to strangers
I've got lovin' eyes, of my own...
Chorus
You belong to me
Tell her - tell her you were foolin'
(You belong to me)
You don't even know her
(You belong to me)
Tell her that I love you
(You belong to me...)
Verse 2
You belong to me
Can it be, honey, that you're not sure
You belong to me
Thought we'd closed the book and locked the door
You don't have to prove to me That you're beautiful to strangers
I've got loving eyes of my own (of my own...)
And I can tell - I can tell darling...
Tell her... tell her that I love you
Chorus 2
(You belong to me)
You belong... you belong... you belong to me
(You belong to me)
Tell her you were foolin'
(You belong to me)
Tell her she don't even know you
Chorus 3
Tell... her-tell her you were foolin'
(You belong to me)
I know you from a long time ago baby
(You belong to me)
Don't make me go to her house
(You belong to me)
You belong, you belong, you belong to me
Repeat to Fade
You belong to me...(You belong to me)
You belong to me...(You belong to me)

Tell Me Something Bad About Tulsa
Love is so beautiful
When everything is fine
But when it is like hers and mine
It lives and dies at least
Ten Thousand
Times
Chorus:
Tell me something bad about Tulsa
How those old oil wells
Smell in the wind
Tell me something bad about Tulsa
So I wont have to go back
Believing I belong there
Again
Eyes as blue as Tulsa skis
I kept getting lost in when I met her
Hair like Oklahoma sand
I could run my hands through forever
But all good things must end
All rivers have to bend
I keep runnin out
But she keeps pullin me back in
REPEAT CHORUS:
Tell me something bad about Tulsa
So I wont have to go back
Believing I belong there

Same Old Blues
(by eric clapton)
Im sorry baby, but I cant afford to stay.
Your good, kind treatment will worry me someday.
I love you baby, but Im gonna have to say goodbye.
Woman, I got to move, I really got to fly.
Same thing every morning,
Tell me whats it all about.
I get those same old blues every night.
I miss you already, baby, more than words can say.
Seems like Ive been gone twenty-four hours, more like a million days.
I love you baby, you know I woudnt tell you no lies.
If you dont believe I love you, look at the tears standing in my eyes.
Chorus
Here I am back home, baby, Im back home to stay.
I love you babe, never more will I go away.

No more running round, no more phony alibis.

Round and round I go
Where I stop
You will never know
Round and round I go
Where I stop
You will never know

I just don't understand
What is your master plan
What did you have me do
Confusion in my mind
Been hurt a thousand times
Now I know you're not true
(That's why I can't be with you)
You don't know what it meant to me
Just to make you happy
All this time I've waited
Now our love has faded
Please tell me why it's gone
So my life can go on

I told you once before
I'm walkin out the door
I'm leaving you behind
Thinking bout you all the time
Makes me so sad and blue
Now what are we gonna do

You don't know what you did to me
When you told me you loved me
Now you're actin' shady
Now I'm goin crazy
Please stop holdin back from me
Cause I got to keep from goin round

What Are You Gonna Do
When you are alone,
You come back cryin and you want to go home;
For someone forgettin it seems
Like youre lettin it take you away from me.
Was your idea to pack up and go.
You said you had no life of your own.
Movin in was not too hard to do.
Ya got second thoughts; youre gonna have to choose.
Chorus:
What are you gonna do ?
Forget about your mother and think about you.
For someone forgettin it seems
Like youre lettin it take you away from me.
Told you all the secrets that were mine.
The good things that I picked up overtime.
Wont accept the reason why youre here;
Talk things out; overcome the fear.

Friends In Low Places
Blame it all on my roots
I showed up in boots
And ruined your black tie affair
The last one to know
The last one to show
I was the last one
You thought you'd see there
And i saw the surprise
And the fear in his eyes
When i took his glass of champagne
And i toasted you
Said, honey, we may be through
But you'll never hear me complain
(chorus)
'cause i've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns
And the beer chases my blues away
And i'll be okay
I'm not big on social graces
Think i'll slip on down to the oasis
Oh, i've got friends in low places.
Well, i guess i was wrong
I just don't belong
But then, i've been there before
Everything's all right
I'll just say goodnight
And i'll show myself to the door
Hey, i didn't mean
To cause a big scene
Just give me an hour and then
Well, i'll be as high
As that ivory tower
That you're livin' in
*chorus*
(third verse)
I guess i was wrong
I just don't belong
But then, i've been there before
And everything is alright
I'll just say goodnight
And i'll show myself to the door
I didn't mean to cause a big scene
Just wait 'til i finish this glass
Then sweet little lady
I'll head back to the bar
And you can kiss my ass

Love Lies

Oh, I thought love was something I could count on
But it took her to show me that

Love lies-right to your face
Love lies-just when I had faith
It would let me down
I know that love lies-right to the end

Where her promise used to be
She said shed be here to guide me
I guess now the jokes on me
Oh, I thought love was something like devotion
But it took her to show me that

Another ride trying to clear my head
But all I hear is just the beat of my heart
I think of her but I see you instead

And theres a thousand little lies
A thousand little reasons
For me to stay - for me to go
And theres a thousand little voices
Inside my head saying
Take the long way home
I tell myself that its all over
But then I see you and I just dont know
What should I listen to my heart or my mind
Too tired to think about the way I should go

And youre on your own
You keep on thinking bout the wrong that youve done

Passing seasons over fade away
Into misty clouds of autumn grey
As I sit here looking at the street
Little figures quickly moving feet
Im just a pebble on the beach and i
Sit and wonder why
Little people running around
Never knowing why

Life is just a precious minute baby
Open up your eyes and see it baby
Give yourself a better chance
Because time will pass you
Right on by (right on by)

This big old world is spinning like a top
Come and help me now and make it stop
All you have to do is live for now
Come along with me Ill show you how
Take my hand Ill show you how to live
Why wait until tomorrow?
Take my hand Ill lead the way
To a brighter day

Time is gonna pass you by so quickly
And it waits for no man

You Can't Kill Rock 'N Roll
How many time can they
Fill me with lies and I listen again
Twisting the truth and they're
Playing around with my head OK
The things they will do and
The things they will say
When they don't really understand
Tears fill my eyes when I
Hear all the cries
For the reason today
And they don't really know
Even what they're talking about
And I can't imagine
What empty heads can achieve
Chorus:
Leave me alone
Don't want your promises no more
'Cause rock and roll
Is my religion and my law
Won't ever change,
May think it's strange
You can't kill rock 'n roll
It's here to stay
Looking through eyes of time
Mirrors reflecting their stories untrue
Promises, promises
Telling me all of my glories overdue
How many times have I heard it before
And I'm probably hear it again
King of a thousand knights,
Pawn in a table light
Losing to you
And they don't really know
Even what they're talking about
And I can't imagine
What empty heads can achieve
Chorus:
Leave me alone
Don't want your promises no more
'Cause rock 'n roll
Is my religion and my law
Won't ever change,
May think it's strange
You can't kill rock 'n roll
It's here to stay
Solo
Even the rhymes that they
Give me times of confession ain't true
Outcome is obvious
All for them, none for us meaning you too
The things they will do and
The things they will say
When they don't really understand
Fear of rejection I need their protection
I'm making a stand
And they don't really know
Even what they're talkin' about
And I can't imagine
What empty heads can achieve
Chorus:
Leave me alone
Don't want you promises no more
'Cause rock 'n roll
Is my religion and my law
Won't ever change
May think it's strange
You can't kill rock 'n roll
It's here to stay
Leave me alone
Don't want you promises no more
'Cause rock 'n roll
Is my religion and my law
Won't ever change
May think it's strange
I'm born to rock 'n roll
I'm here to stay.....yeah!!!
