I Stand For You
By chuck sabatino and michael mcdonald
No greater power
No greater gift to lose
Then the message unspoken
The silence of the truth
Alone we hide in the shadows
But together we bring on the light
Chorus:
One voice is not strong enough
One heart just wont do
In this world I dont count for much
Unless I stand for you
Oh, we are the beginning
Of a sound that might be heard
To the many who lie waiting
Our words break through the cold grip of silence
And they guide us through the night
Chorus:
One choice is all we got
One fact remains true
In this world I dont count for much
Unless I stand for you
Not another minute
Not another hour
Were gonna rise on up
Every man, woman and child
(I believe that the time has come)
Oh, I stand for you
Alone we hide in the shadows
But together we bring on the light

(Do Not) Stand In The Shadows
Hearts which beat to a precise beat
Fading shadows on the wall
We'll cut our cards
Drive out bars
All for one, one for all.
Like teenage heat
And carnival cheats
With your heart on your sleeve
Well you know you wanna run
You won't hide
And you jump like a son of a gun
Do not stand in the shadows
Do not stand in the shadows
Do not stand in the shadows
Do not stand in the shadows
Oh alone and lonely
Watching people on my wall
Well Mama and Dadda thought they had me fooled
I was thinking not at all
Well I got out
Not gonna stand
In the dark without a light
Forgetting love if you believe that chance
Sit and wait
Do not stand in the shadows
Do not stand in the shadows
in the shadows
Do not stand in the shadows
Do not stand in the shadows
Do not stand in the shadows
Do not stand in the shadows
And now the judge is down feeling
all around yeah
Lifting to a blast this sound
No preachers, teachers
Pick our minds
To the sounds of false alarm
They're here today
And they hear you say
You're alive and you're living with me
So don't try to hide
And don't try to die
In the dark of the night
Do not stand in the shadows
Do not stand in the shadows
Do not stand in the shadows
Do not stand in the shadows
Do not stand in the shadows
Do not stand in the shadows
In the shadows, in the shadows
Do not stand in the shadows

I Stand Up
Youll never lose me to temptation.
Fighting the devil and I beat the dragon too.
Im at your rescue; Im your faithful one,
If its the last thing that I ever mean to do.
Im in deeper than you could know.
The wise in me wont let it go.
You can count on me, guarantee.
I stand up, I stand up,
Believe in myself.
(if you love somebody, stand.)
I stand up, I stand up,
Give me a little respect.
(if you need somebody, stand.)
Out of the shadow, yet Im alright.
Its not as easy as I know it used to be.
I dont have time to look behind me.
I know the truth and its the truth that set me free.
One more heart to heart to live for;
One more time to stop the war,
Inside of me; in spite of me.
I stand up, I stand up,
Believe in myself
(if you love somebody, stand.)
I stand up, I stand up,
Give me a little respect.
(if you need somebody, stand.)

We Got The Right
(m&l - kiske)
Dont turn your head
Back to the wall
Dont close your eyes
And wait for your fall
If you belive that you know in this time
Youve got anything to win
If you belive that you know
Then I say youll lose all again
In this time theres nothing to get for you
You cannot really do what you want
Youre a child, a prisoner in your mind
You are a victim of this hopeless time
You better believe all you do has a sense
Its not for nothing
You better believe all the troubles you have
Will pay you someday
Why dont you help yourself and do the best
Put all the bombs back up their builders ass
Why dont you stand up to say who you are
To show the people that paradise is not far
Oh, cant you see we got the right
To look into the future without no need to hide
No we wont accept what you do
We stand up cause were not the people
You can abuse
Oh, cant you see we got the right
To say we are here to see the light
No, we dont wanna lose all again
Stand up, you people, to save the world
As good as you can
We are credulous idiots
And wont understand what they plan
We march with the times
Its what they expect and we do
Why dont you open your eyes
To undercover all of these lies
I think you wont accept this
Go oppose with your fist
Fight for your rights
Oh, can t you see we got the right
To say we are here to see the light
No, we dont wanna lose all again
Stand up, you people, to save the world
As good as you can

Let's Get Free
I went searching
For something I could believe
So I turned on the TV
I was fed hypocrisy
Leading me towards the sea
Of confusion
I heard a voice
Ringing like music in the air
Breaking hearts most everywhere
All the people in despair
Cry out for justice to be fair
To every people
(Chorus)
Saying lets get free, lets get free
Dont just believe in what you hear
Dont just believe in what you see
Lets get free, lets get free
You gotta open up your mind
Cause truth is what ya need, oh truth is what you need
Our love
Can prop you up and make you stand
Some are sinking in the sand
With all that silver in their hand
Take a message to that man
That wisdom is power
And tell me now
You have Allah on your side
Or is it Jesus or your pride
Will it get you through the night
Every man has to have something to believe in
(Chorus)
Lets get free, lets get free
You gotta believe in what you feel
And feel what you believe
Lets get free, lets get free
oh love is all you need
Before the dawn
Comes the darkest hour of night
Either walk into the light
Or you turn and close your eyes
And fade into a dreamless sleep and hide
Every human
Is gonna laugh and sometimes cry
Every tear that fills your eyes
Falls with the weight of sacrifice
Forgiveness hears the pain of disappointment
(Chorus)
Lets get free, lets get free
Dont just believe in what you hear
Dont just believe in what you see
Lets get free, oh lets get free
Everythings as it should be
So faith is all you need, oh peace is all you need, oh truth is all you need
yeah oh

Now More Than Ever
If you believe
Wont you please raise your hands
Lets hear your voices
Let us know where you stand
Dont shout from the shadows
Cause it wont mean a dammn
Now more than ever
Chorus:
Now more than ever
The world needs love
Not just a slogan
But the world needs love
Now more than ever
I cant stand alone
Now more than ever
If I was to buy you
A diamond ring
Make you my princess
Would it mean anything
Would you take me for granted
And just curse my name
Now more than ever
Chorus:
Now more than ever
The world needs love
Not just a slogan
But the world needs love
Now more than ever
I cant stand alone
Now more than ever
Who am I to say
What needs to be done
I am just nobody
Another lost one
Caught between whats left
And what needs to be done
Now more than ever
The loss of love
The loss of our dreams
Its not too late
Chorus:
Now more than ever
The world needs love
Not just a slogan
But the world needs love
Now more than ever
I cant stand alone
Now more than ever
Now more than ever
The world needs love
Not just a slogan
But the world needs love
Now more than ever
I cant stand alone
Now more than ever

Send A Message
In a line of fire I stand and wait for you, I cant hold out for too long
Searchin every part of me for a sign, Im in the middle of a storm
I keep hopin, keep on dreamin, somehow youll get through to me
So I reach across the silence, in the air, I keep hopin for a sound
Just a word or two is all I need, how can I bring you back around
Can you hear me, can I touch you, show me the way to your heart
Chorus:
Send a message - send me a message tonight
Send a message - in my dreams you are never out of sight
Send a message - let me stand in your light, just send me a message
In my dark and lonely night I look for you, wont you save me from myself
When my senses melt away you will be here and I wont need nobody else
I cant hold back, I wont fight it, roll back this stone from my heart
Send a message - send me a message tonight
Send a message - in my dreams you are never out of sight
Send a message - let me stand in your light, just send me a message
Everything you are (everything you are)
Means everything to me (means everything to me)
I will wait for you (I will wait)
Time is all we need (is all)
(guitar solo)
I keep hopin, keep on dreamin, somehow youll get through to me
Send a message - send me a message tonight
Send a message - in my dreams you are never out of sight
Send a message - let me stand in your light, just send me a message

Dont Stand Another Chance
Standin at the edge of time bout to lose my mind
cause you try to take him away from me, I wont let it be
You just walk into my life and try to take away my only prize
But you better give credit cause his love is right here for me
You dont stand another chance
You dont stand another chance
You dont stand another chance
You dont stand another chance
He belongs to me, just wait and see
Take him in my arms, give him love, not too much of me
Nothin you can do or say to make him look your way
So you better give credit cause its gonna come walking my way
You dont stand another chance
You dont stand another chance (ohh)
You dont stand another chance (you dont stand baby)
You dont stand another chance (you dont stand)
You dont stand another chance
Sit and wait at home bout to leave me alone (I know baby)
Youll be with him when hes up, not down, to keep him on the ground
Let me tell you something, its true, hes not in love with you
So you better give credit cause its nothing coming down your way
You dont stand another chance (not a chance, baby)
You dont stand another chance (you dont stand, baby)
You dont stand another chance (baby) you dont stand another chance (you dont stand)
Well, you know somebodys gotta lose
We all cant win... maybe next time, okay
You guys are confusing
You dont stand another chance (you dont stand)
You dont stand another chance (you dont stand, baby)
You dont stand another chance (you dont stand, baby)
You dont stand another chance (another chance)

We Will Cry
(l. stansfield/i. devaney/a. morris)
Chorus:
And we will climb, rise up above the shame
And we wont run, run from each others grace
And we shall stand, stand up against the fear
And we will never, never go back again
And we will cry
What do they know of loneliness and love
A love so strong youd gladly give your soul
They dont see anything but hunger and fear
Fear to lose themselves, deep within themselves
And they hide, they hide behind their eyes
For fear their pride be broken
We have our hearts
To pull throught the pain
To take us to the very edge and push us over
And I cant see any other way but to leave this place
They will never know how good theyve made us feel
Their shallow lives have made us so much stronger
Theyll never feel, the way we feel
They way we stand for one another
So take your useless time and get on with your life
Weve been a passing light and now were passing over
And you will never know how loneliness can feel
For all we felt inside was hunger for each other
Chorus and fade

I Won't Close My Eyes
(chorus)
I won't close my eyes
To the sufferers plight.
In a world full of sadness
I won't turn off my light.
Our cries for justice are shots in the dark
But our strength's in our bite
And not in our bark
It's time to stand
And shout it out loud
And the louder we scream
The sweeter the sound.
(chorus)
I won't close my eyes
When i know that i'm right
When i'm drowning in tears
I won't turn off my light.
We're shown no respect
But that can't break our pride,
When our backs to the wall
We won't run and we won't hide
It's time to stand, face the oncoming crowd
And the louder we scream
The sweeter the sound.
(chorus)
I wont't close my eyes
When the future don't look bright
Though the road seems too long
I won't turn off my light
In a world full of darkness,
I won't turn off my light

Silence
I got a feeling
Everything's gonna be alright
And I still find my way
And I heard
It's always darkest before the storm
So come on let it rain
Everything was different when I was seventeen
The world was so much brighter
Now I finally found the truth
Of what they hid for me
That world was so much kinder
Silence
Don't hear a sound
But my own voice
Silence
Is what it is
By my own choice
I believe
That we were meant to learn from our mistakes
And stumble along the way
Now I know
That people are gonna grap what they can take
Then just turn away
Everybody's searching
But no one really knows the truth
The world is upside down
What it's all about right now
Will soon turn to gray
Their promises have faded
Silence
Silence
Silence
Don't hear a sound
But my own voice
Silence
Don't hear a sound
But my own voice
Silence
Is what it is
By my own choice
All my little merry friends
Have turned their backs on me
Excuse me if I'm jaded
I'm so tired of people telling me
How it should be
Their promises have faded
Silence
Silence
Silence
Don't hear a sound
But my own voice
Silence
Don't hear a sound
But my own voice
Silence
Is what it is
By my own choice
Silence

Loser Gone Wild
I dont mind the pain, or the jokers cold refrain
The days pass by so slowly, I count them all again
Silence of a basement, shades all closed at noon
Lie awake for fear of strangers
Darkness comes on slowly, twilight is the ecstasy
Like a candle burning bright, shadows dance until the night
Empty rooms and chilling smiles
They go on for miles and miles
Chorus: but in the evening when the sun goes down
Crawl from the shadows got to get into town
Where the music is playin all across the night
And every cloud disappears from sight
There goes a loser, another loser gone
There goes another, another whos alone
There goes a loser, another loser gone wild
I dont mind if violins dont play
I wont listen to them anyway
I dont care what people say
Some things just cant be arranged
Icy fingers touching you.
Silent voices calling too
What else is there to lose- I am here but where are you?

Dont Keep Me In The Dark
Words and music:: austin roberts, james dunne, mike reno
Oh what an illumination love can be
Open up your eyes to its light and you will see
You did that for me, you opened up my eyes
Then extraordinary changes started happening to me
My temperature would rise and fall inside of me
Words came naturally, you were more than I could fantasize
And Ill never know, why someones heart wants to die
If you ever need, if you need to tell me goodbye
Dont keep me in the dark
Silence wont protect you
If youre gonna leave
You got to let me know
Dont keep me in the dork
Tell me when its over
You tear my world apart
When you keep me in the dark
I cant put my finger on what might have been
Any more than I con say when the love will end
But time and time again
I realize youre all I need to know
Youll still be part of the hole in my heart and my soul
But if our love should ever lose its control
Dont keep me in the dark
Silence wont protect you
If youre gonna leave
You got to let me know
Dont keep me in the dark
Tell me when its over
Youll tear my world apart
If you keep me in the dark
Dont keep me in the dark
Silence wont protect you
If youre gonna leave
You got to let me know
Dont keep me in the dark
Tell me when its over
You tear my world apart
When you keep me in the dark

Blink Of An Eye
By george perilli and michael mcdonald
Child, as I look in your eyes
You know my life seems like a minute
There I find living proof
Of all the wonder life hold in it
In the past I thought I had to learn
Any good that comes from this life were living
Here and now, let us realize
That this lifes gift and its already been given
Chorus:
Someday when you stand in the middle
Like it or not youre gonna look both ways
Youre gonna find that time is a riddle
Where days turn into years
And years into the blink of an eye
Child, once I saw a man on the tv
Lead a nation up a mountain
He said, children, look over yonder
The flame of truth is burning brightly
Sometimes you look so far, theres only so much time
Only so many of us are gonna get there
Here and now is all we really have
But if we can make it count
We got no reason to worry
Chorus:
Youre gonna walk that mile
Youre gonna be in that number
Youre gonna make that journey
Just like the good book says
Theres a time to be born, a time to cross over
You can be sure its in the blink of an eye

What Makes A Man Hold On
By chuck sabatino and michael mcdonald
What makes a man
Believe in a brighter day
When his whole world is fallin apart
All promise is fading away
What does it take,
To turn his heart to stone
When hes got more than his share of riches
More than one life can hold
Sometimes it takes
More than weve got it seems
Something so close, so near
Even a blind man sees
If it takes a hand strong and mighty
To spin this world around
It takes the power of a womans sweet love
To make a man hold on
What makes a man
Hang his hope on someone
To bring the light out of darkness
Makes him believe a change is gonna come
Something inside that just wont let go
Something so simple, so sweet,
Even a fool would know
If it takes a hand strong and mighty
To spin this world around
It takes the power of a womans sweet love
To bring joy out of pain
To let sunshine through rain
To bring hope back to the heart
To bring together whats fallin apart
Shes got the kind of kisses
To make a weak man strong
Shes got the kind of love
To make a good man go wrong
Shes got what it takes
Shes got the power to make a man hold on

Dont Let Me Down
By michael mcdonald & randy goodrum
Sometimes it seems to me
A long and tender love
Is just not meant to be
Its just not of this world
The more we live with this love
The more we learn to ignore
We keep our feelings inside
Until we open the door
Chorus:
Its in my heart, its in your eyes
Its waving us on
Till everything stops, everything dies
(we cant stop now, weve come this far)
Dont let me down
cause in its darkest hour
A love thats still worthwhile
Will always stand its ground
If we just realize
The more we give to this love
The more we know that its right
But if the time ever comes
That we should look for that light

Available Light
Words by neil peart, music by geddy lee and alex lifeson
The restless wind
Has seen all things
In every kind of light
Rising with the full moon
To go howling through the night
The sleepless wind
Has heard all things
Between the sea and sky
In the canyons of the city
You can hear the buildings cry
Oh the wind can carry
All the voices of the sea
Oh the wind can carry
All the echoes home to me
Run with wind and weather
To the music of the sea
All four winds together
Cant bring the world to me
Chase the wind around the world
I want to look at life --- in the available light
Play of light
A photograph
The way I used to be
Some half-forgotten stranger
Doesnt mean that much to me
Trick of light
Moving picture
Moments caught in flight
Make the shadows darker
Or the colors shine too bright
Oh the light can carry
All the visions of the sea
Oh the light can carry
All the images to me
Run to light from shadow
Sun gives me no rest
Promise offered in the east
Broken in the west
Chase the sun around the world
I want to look at life --- in the available light
All four winds together
Cant bring the world to me
Shadows hide the play of light
So much I want to see
Chase the light around the world
I want to look at life --- in the available light
Ill go with the wind
Ill stand in the light
