Living Against The River
(j.p. maunick)
In the early morning light you step into the cold
Your curses freeze mid air, the bus is late
Youve got to get to work on time, your job is on the line
Soon youll start again, the same routine
Deep inside your mind, the dreamers dream youll find
As the day is long, it keeps you moving on
Trying to stay ahead as best you can
Sweep away the notion of a revolution
Do it for yourself
Chorus:
(theres no stoppin)
(living against the river)
Do what you do what you do
(got to keep pushing)
(when youre living against the river)
Do what you do what you do
As the light begins to fade and youre heading back for home
Your head is hanging low, youre feeling blue
From the corner of your eyes, under neon lights you see
The old man in the snow with worn out shoes
Sweep away the notion of a revolution
Do it for yourself
Chorus
Repeat (fade)

Cry, Cry, Cry
Everybody knows where you go when the sun goes down
They say you only live to see the lights of town
I wasted my time when I would try, try, try
cause when the lights have lost their glow, youll cry, cry, cry
Soon your sugar-daddies will all be gone
And youll wake up some cold day and find youre alone
Youll come to me but Im gonna tell you bye, bye, bye
When I turn around and walk away, youll cry, cry, cry
Youre gonna cry, cry, cry and youll cry alone
When everyones forgotten and youre on your own
Youre gonna cry, cry, cry
I lie awake at night and wait till you come in
You stay a little while and then youre gone again
Every question that I ask, I get a lie, lie, lie
For every lie you tell, youre gonna cry, cry, cry
When your fickle little love gets old, no one will care for you
Youll come back to me for a little love thats true
Ill tell you no and youre gonna ask me why, why, why
When I remind you of all of this, youll cry, cry, cry
Youre gonna cry, cry, cry and youll want me there
Itll hurt when you think of the fool youve been
Youre gonna cry, cry, cry

Revolution Cry
When passion takes on a purpose
And searching ones embrace the light
And skeptics find themselves down on their knees
Youll know its here.
When you hear a sound as loud as thunder
And you hear a cry that shakes the ground beneath you
When you hear a shout that shatters the darkness
Youll know its here
When the lost find a name were believing in
And theyre falling in back on to their feet again
And the broken start to dream again
And the sad of all fills these streets
Youll know its here.
Chorus: revolution can you feel it
Revolution cry
Revolution can you hear it
Revolution cry
And I believe it
And I believe it
How long do we have to wait,
And how long will we stay silent?
And will this weeping generation dance again?
Oh God when will the truth be restored?
When the lost find a name were believing in
And theyre falling in back on to their feet again
And the broken start to dream again
And the sad of all fills these streets
Youll know its here.
Chorus...
Youll know its here.
Can you feel it?

Speed Of The Sound Of Loneliness
You come home late and you come home early
You come on big when youre feeling small
You come home straight and you come home curly
Sometimes you dont come home at all
Chorus:
So what in the worlds come over you
And what in heavens name have you done
Youve broken the speed of the sound of loneliness
Youre out there running just to be on the run
Well I got a heart that burns with a fever
And I got a worried and a jealous mind
How can a love thatll last forever
Get left so far behind
Repeat chorus:
Its a mighty mean and a dreadful sorrow
Its crossed the evil line today
Well, how can you ask about tomorrow
We aint got one word to say
Repeat chorus:

Youre out there running just to be on the run

Time Machine
Oh what are you gonna do
When theres a part of you
That needs to run with the wind
And the fire of burning yesterdays
Can only light the way
To lead you from
The garden of the dark
Stay out of shadows
Now look like the change is on
Tomorrows never gone
Today just never comes
Go on and jump,yeah
Into the hurricane
You will forger the pain
Its only there
To exorcise your mind
Looking at the world
When youve open up your eyes
Youve got to see the promises theyve made
Theyre bloody lies and broken dreams
Your silence screams
Chorus:
Youre living in a time machine
And you can choose just who you are
Someone that youve never seen
Somewhere youve never been
Youre living in a time machine
Oh what are you gonna do
When every part of you
Just needs to catch the wind
And the fire of burning yesterdays
Can only light the way
To lead you from
The garden of the dark
Looking for the world
When youve opened up your eyes
Youll see youve got invisible chains
Theyre only lies
Not what it seems
I hear your silent screams
Chorus:
Youre living in a time machine
Nobody cares just where you go
Taken where youve never been
? ? ? somewhere you dont know
Youre living in a time machine
Why do you stay who you are
Be what youve never been
Someone youve never seen
Youre living in a time machine
Yeah

My Hearts With You
(diane warren)
I know youre leaving
I wont ask you to stay
I wont hold you back
I wont stand in your way
If thats what youve gotta do
I understand
Its not that easy setting you free
But thats how its gotta be
And as youre walking away
As Im watching you go
Theres one thing I want you to know
(chorus)
Just remember my hearts with you
When the night gets so long and cold
And no ones there to hold
And youre all alone
Take a moment to think of me
And the love that we used to know
And if you ever find you ever need me someday Im just a heartbeat away, wo
Saying goodbye isnt saying were through
Just know through it all Im still here for you
Light a light in the window
When your lost in the dark, ooh
These arms would be happy to hold you again
If ever you miss me or when you
Start thinking about
All the nights that we shared
Darling you know Ill be there
(repeat chorus (without last line))
You walk to the door with nothing to say
I look in your eyes and you look away
Youre leaving me now, but darling I hope
Hope--that youll look back someday
(and remember my hearts with you...)

Take me in the morning
Take me every night
Take me when youre feeling low
Take me when you want to stay
Take me,
Take me, take me, take me, take me
Take, take, take, take.
Before you slide into the wide
Theres something I want you to know
(what you see is what you want)
In all your stretch of conciousness
Youve still got a long way to go
(what you want its what you need)
Some make you spin,
Some make you sweat,
Its only here for you to choose (choose me)
And if you try, an alternative high
Then tell me what have you got to loose now..
Take me every morning
Take me every night
Take me when youre feeling low
Take me when you want to stay - up all night
Up all night
The hit, the hit
The hit to fit reality,
Its just a state of mind

And youll admit its more than just an axe that youve got to grind

Well make a spin
Well make you sweat
All youve got to do is use me (use me)
Some like it hot
But I like it wet
So tell me what have we got to lose now..

Going Down
When youre in a dream
And you think you got your problems all nailed down
Pieces of the scheme
Seem to rattle up and then to rattle down
And when you start to fall
And those footsteps they start to fade
Well then you know youre going down
Yeah, youre falling all around
And you know youre going down
For the last time
When youre in the air
And youre thinking youll drift off into the west
Your friends polite, advise
Hey look youre pushing too hard
And perhaps you need a rest
And when you start to fall
And all those footsteps they start to fade
Then you know youre going down
Yeah, youre crashing upside down
And you know youre going down
For the last -
- times not what it seems
It just seems longer, when youre lonely in this world
Everything it seems
Would be brighter if your nights were spent with some girl
Yeah, youre falling all around
Yeah, youre crashing upside down
Oh, oh, and you know youre going down
For the last time

We Are One
You are not alone and how long can you run
Its much to late if you dont know what youve got til its gone
Once upon a time you were a child but that was yesterday
Believed that magic in your heart would never fade away
But hold your head up high and let your spirits fly
Keep hope alive yes deep inside and your dreams will never die
We are one
Everywhere I go, everyone I see
And I see my face looking back at me
We are one
Everything I know, what I know is true
Everyone of us is inside of you
We are one
We are one
Oooh take a breath, close your eyes youre on the road again
And then you realize theyve brought you back to life again
Somethings never change but if you fantasize
Youll feel it deep inside yourself and then youll realize
When you feel it coming
When you hear the sound
Youll always laugh when you wanna cry
And then youll know it deep inside
We are one
Everywhere I go, everyone I see
And I see my face looking back at me
We are one
Everything I know, what I know is true
Everyone of us is inside of you
We are one
We are one
You are me, I am you
What you see, is all true

You are me, I am you

Down On The River
Down on the river it's an easy kind of life
Everybody here's feeling fine
No need to worry or get in a hurry
Nothing to spend but time
Light up a smoke and tell a few jokes
And pass the old jug around
We're gonna get right on a Saturday night
When the sun goes down
(CHORUS)
Down on the river
Down on the river
Just some old boys making a lot of noise
Down on the river
Down on the river
Down on the river
If anyone calls, tell them we're all
Down on the river
We'll go fishing by the light of the moon
And bait them hooks by hand
And early in the morning we'll take them off the line
Fry 'em all up in a pan
We gotta get home while we still got a job
or we'll have to answer to the man
And everybody knows though we gotta go
We'll be back again

Youre back to win
To start again
Searching for the power
That youve had before
The tables turned
Mistakes youve made
Stop telling lies - no angeleyes

Open up your eyes
So hit the road and memorize

You know youre born to run
Dont lose your heart

So youd better watch out

Forget the past - just head out
Head out for your aims

Tearing up the night

And wanna get out of this someday town

Just put em all in a great big pile

Who lights you up like the rising sun
But hes been hurt and he wont feel

When all our tears have reached the sea
Part of you will live in me
Way down deep inside my heart
The days keep coming without fail
A new wind is gonna find your sail
Thats where your journey starts
Youll find better love
Strong as it ever was
Deep as the river runs
Warm as the morning sun
Please remember me
Just like the waves down by the shore
Were gonna keep on coming back for more
cause we dont ever wanna stop
Out in this brave new world you seek
Oh the valleys and the peaks
And I can see you on the top
Youll find better love
Strong as it ever was
Deep as the river runs
Warm as the morning sun
Please remember me
Remember me when youre out walkin
When the snow falls high outside your door
Late at night when youre not sleepin
And moonlight falls across your floor
When I cant hurt you anymore
Youll find better love
Strong as it ever was
Deep as the river runs
Warm as the morning sun
Please remember me

Living On A Frontline
Bad days are coming
Back into my head
Theyre looking for trouble, is that alright
You know youve seen them before
And now theyre turning
Into the deepest nights
Shadows on the wall - dont surrender at all
Youre not alone this time
Do or die - youll always be on the run
Like a soldier in time - rain or shine
Aces high - youd better be on the ball
Dont move outta the way - stand for what youve gotta say
Were living on a frontline
Always trying not to go
Were living on a frontline
Its much more than enough this time
Were living on a frontline
Now you start searching
For a better life
Better not look back - go straight ahead
Just be yourself all the time
Do or die - youll always be on the run
Like a soldier in time - rain or shine
Aces high - youd better be on the ball
Dont move outta the way - stand for what youve gotta say
Were living on a frontline
Always trying not to go
Were living on a frontline
Its much more than enough this time
Were living - living on a frontline
Always trying not to go
Were living on a frontline
Its much - its much too much this time
Go ahead this time
Ah, were living on a frontline
Ah, its a bad game
Ive told you before
So stay away from the frontline
And your friends next door
You say youre lonely
But I dont want them no more
But one day - youre gonna see
Theyre gonna disappear
Were living on a frontline
Always trying not to go
Were living on a frontline
Its much more than enough this time
Were living - living on the frontline
Always trying not to go
Were living on a frontline
Its much - its much too much this time
On a frontline
