Running in place
Feeling like you're losing your faith
Feeling like you're fading away
Without a voice to break the chain
Don't you get played
Don't you let them hand you you're fate
Don't you know the world is you're stage
So what you got to say
Let me hear you sound off
Let them know how you feel
If the anger inside is real
Sound off
Long before the bridges are burned
The powers to be are going to hear your words
Have you been heard
Have you been walking around this world misunderstood
Have you been heard
You got to take back what you know is yours
Let me hear you sound off
Searching for truth
You know when someone's lying to you
We all know how it feels to be used
Do they take us all for fools
They break they're own rules
The hypocrites are leading us through
Do what they say and nod as they do
Or do we have a right to choose
Let me hear you sound off
Let them know how you feel
Sound off
If the anger inside is real
Long before the bridges are burned
The powers to be are going to hear your words
Have you been heard
Have you been walking around this world misunderstood
Have you been heard
You got to take back what you know is yours
Let me hear you sound off
I hope you get the message loud and clear
We will never disappear
We will ask the questions you fear
Its the only thing you'll hear
Sound off
Let them know how you feel
If the anger inside is real
Sound off
Long before the bridges are burned
The powers to be are going to hear your words
Have you been heard
Have you been walking around this world misunderstood
Have you been heard
You got to take back what you know is yours
Let me hear you sound off

I don't know a stronger personality
I don't know another girl so hard to please
Oh you make me wonder it's all a bad dream
Until you make me closer my eyes as you make it up to me
You like a story with a twist
Conflict, you cannot resist
Don't stop until you get your wish
My drama, my drama queen
I taste the poison on your lips
With every word that you let slip
You keep that plot of yours so thick
My drama, my drama queen
Wear your heart on your sleeve
Wear it so I can see
Go ahead and make a scene
No matter how extreme
My drama queen
You always take it further than anyone could know
You have to have it all your way or you lose control
Oh you take me under when your playing that role
I will die a thousand deaths before I let you go
You like a story with a twist
Conflict, you cannot resist
Don't stop until you get your wish
My drama, my drama queen
I taste the poison on your lips
With every word that you let slip
You keep that plot of yours so thick
My drama, my drama queen
Wear your heart on your sleeve
Wear it so I can see
Go ahead and make a scene
No matter how extreme
My drama queen
You got your claws in me
I let you dig so deep
You make it hard to breathe
But I ain't surrendering
I love to make you scream
Just look at the marks you leave
You know I'll always be
The one who set you free
I don't a stronger personality
I don't know another girl so hard to please
Wear your heart on your sleeve
Wear it so I can see
Go ahead and make a scene
No matter how extreme
My drama queen
My drama queen
My drama queen
My drama queen
My drama queen
My drama queen
My drama queen
My drama queen

Things are getting harder and harder and harder
Seems like I barely get by
The days are getting shorter and shorter and shorter
I just can't find enough time
It's all around me
The fear of failing
It's all around me
And I keep looking down at where I know I could be
I don't want to hit the bottom
I'm at the end of my rope
Hanging from the last little bit of hope
Feeling like I'm bout to lose control
Maybe I should just let go
I'm at the end of my rope
Clinging to the only thing I know
As long as there's something left to hold
I won't let go
I can still remember remember remember
It was so easy to fly
I thought I'd live forever forever forever
Now I gotta fight to survive
It's all around me
Life's changing
It's all around me
But I just can't let it fall too far out of reach
I don't want to hit the bottom
I'm at the end of my rope
Hanging from the last little bit of hope
Feeling like I'm bout to lose control
Maybe I should just let go
I'm at the end of my rope
Clinging to the only thing I know
As long as there's something left to hold
I won't let go
There's still some hope
At the end of my rope
At the end of my rope
Everyone of us has got a story to tell
Some are still lost some have found themselves
Some are in denial with no soul to sell
And I am still here at the wishing well
I'll keep trying I'll keep fighting
I'm at the end of my rope
Hanging from the last little bit of hope
Feeling like I'm bout to lose control
Maybe I should just let go
I'm at the end of my rope
Clinging to the only thing I know
As long as there's something left to hold
I won't let go
I won't let go
I won't let go
There's still some hope
At the end of my rope
At the end of my rope

Your lonely cage
is now unlocked
once shackled ankles
now free to walk
the chains that bind you
are breaking off
One by one
As the floor beneath you drops
Get up get off the ground
I want to see your head in the clouds
Get up get off the ground
the sky's the only limit we got now
I see ya reaching out
through a sea of faces in the crowd
get up get off the ground
break the ties to which you have been bound
Don't let this world bring you down
Get up get off the ground
U wait so long
to feel alive
For someone to come
bring you to life that time is here now
you survived don't hold back
from the ashes you will rise
Get up get off the ground
I want to see your head in the clouds
Get up get off the ground
the sky's the only limit we got now
I see ya reaching out
through a sea of faces in the crowd
get up get off the ground
break the ties to which you have been bound
Don't let this world bring you down
Get up get off the ground
No more limitations
no restrictions
no more hesitation
no inhibitions
you have been awakened
you know your life has just begun
you're not just anyone
there's nothing you can't overcome
get up get off the ground
Get up get off the ground
I want to see your head in the clouds
Get up get off the ground
the sky's the only limit we got now
I see ya reaching out
through a sea of faces in the crowd
get up get off the ground
break the ties to which you have been bound
Don't let this world bring you down
Get up get off the ground
Get up get off the ground
Get up get off the ground
Don't ever take the easy way out
you gotta make everyday count
get up get off the ground
get up get off the ground
everything'll come back around
So come on get up off the ground
get up off the ground
. . .

Holding your breath
Holding your tongue
Your only holding yourself back
So much to say
So far to run
Out from the shadow you have come
The best days of your life have yet to come
But it's okay, it's all right to open up
No you don't owe nobody anything
Love and just live anywhere you please
No apologies
No promise left for you to keep
And you can who ever you want to be
No apologies
Closing the door
Closing your eyes
Your only closing yourself off
So much to see
So much to try
Don't be afraid of what you want
The best days of your life have yet to come
But it's okay, it's all right to open up
No you don't owe nobody anything
Love and just live anywhere you please
No apologies
No promise left for you to keep
And you can who ever you want to be
No apologies
Don't want to be no one else
And what you say is all you get
No one to please
No apologies
No apologies
You don't owe nobody anything
Love and just live anywhere you please
No apologies
No promise left for you to keep
And you can who ever you want to be
No apologies

Looking for a validation like everyone else
Going through a transformation and losing myself
I tried to make the pieces fit when I knew it wasn't me
All the eyes are looking in and now I can see
There's a stranger in the mirror
Looking back at me now
The illusion's getting clearer
Lost and I cannot be found
I don't recognize my face
I'm just so out of place
Who have I become
There's a stranger in the mirror
I've got to find a way out
I gave off the wrong impression of somebody else
I know I've made some bad decisions I will regret
It's all I have left
Am I afraid of who I am
Can I be satisfied
If there's a way to take it back
Who will I find
There's a stranger in the mirror
Looking back at me now
The illusion's getting clearer
Lost and I cannot be found
I don't recognize my face
I'm just so out of place
who have I become
There's a stranger in the mirror
I've got to find a way out
Stop running, running
Stop running, running
Stop running, running
Stop running away from me
Stranger in the mirror
I forgot who I once was
There's a stranger in the mirror
And I can't be something I know that I'm not
There's a stranger in the mirror
Looking back at me now
The illusion's getting clearer
Lost and I cannot be found
I don't recognize my face
I'm just so out of place
Who have I become
There's a stranger in the mirror
I've got to find a way out
I've got to find a way out
I've got to find a way out
I've got to find a way out
I've got to find a way out

I need to know where you been
to know where we're going
but you're not letting me in
you're too scared to let that wall
just tumble down again
I know you been hurt
Who are you fooling
I think I'm breaking the curse
the closer I get to you
the more you let me learn
I will break you down tonight
Both my eyes are open wide
You don't have hide it
it's a beautiful scar
so don't leave me in the dark
you don't have to fight it
it's a beautiful scar
Now I know just who who are
I know it's harder to trust
when that trust is broken
you haven't given so much
cause everything that you gave
was never quite enough
You're always taking a chance
with what you're exposing
but if you want it to last
you can't be afraid to say
where it all began
I will break you down tonight
Both my eyes are open wide
You don't have hide it
it's a beautiful scar
so don't leave me in the dark
you don't have to fight it
it's a beautiful scar
Now I know just who who are
It's a beautiful scar
Don't be afraid of who you really are
Will you show me
will you bare it all
will you show me
I'll be there to break the fall
Don't you keep it all inside
that part of you has never died
I know you numbed it all away
that pain was way too much to take
But now I'm here
the dam broke loose
the tears will fall
and you'll find you
you're not alone
we'll make it through
we've crossed that bridge
to something new
You don't have hide it
it's a beautiful scar
so don't leave me in the dark
you don't have to fight it
it's a beautiful scar
Now I know just who who are
It's a beautiful scar
Don't be afraid of who you really are
. . .

We'll get out alive i promise you
The toughest of times we will walk right through
Open your eyes and see there's nothing we can't do
I'm right by your side and there is no way we can lose
I got your back I'm with you every step you take
Are you with me are you with me
Take your chance I'm with you every move you make
Are you with me are you with me
Inside of the lines we could not stay
The stars are aligned today could be our day
Your hands are untied and you are free to go your own way
Or you could shine your light on me and share the same fate
I got your back I'm with you every step you take
Are you with me are you with me
Take your chance I'm with you every move you make
Are you with me are you with me
When I get too close to the edge
Will you be there to pull me back in
No matter how hard that it gets
I'm here til the end
Are you
I want it all
But most of all I want you
I got your back I'm with you every step you take
Are you with me are you with me
Take your chance I'm with you every move you make
Are you with me are you with me

Whichever way that the wind blows
That's where I'll go
I can't think bout tomorrow
On down the road to the unknown
I will follow
No more time left to borrow
the voice inside is calling me again
It told me to rest my head
The work is long the worries strong
As far as I can see there is no end
We toil through the dead of winter
The darkness lingers
Waiting for a tired sun to shine
You say you can predict the weather
it'll all get better
soon enough it will be our turn to thrive
Whichever way that the wind blows
That's where I'll go
I can't think about tomorrow
On down the road to the unknown
I will follow
No more time left to borrow
Whichever way that the wind blows
My hands are cold a chill is in the air
It's getting so hard to bear
The seasons change but I can't wait
Nobody ever said that life was fair
Floating down a raging river
I start to shiver
I know I'm close to where the water falls
My only choice is to surrender
To a new adventure
Leave it up to chance to make the call
Take me
I'm ready and I'm willing
. . .

I can't take this heat
I think I've fallen in too deep
The pressure's at it's peak
and soon it all will be released
I got my back up against the wall
On my knees I had to crawl
This is the last line that I will draw
I've had enough sick of it all
I'm bout to go off
Overloaded
Any second I could blow
Overloaded
I have hit the limit and I'm ready to explode
Overloaded
I've gone as far as I can go
Overloaded
Something's got to give I'm pushing past the last threshold
Pressure so intense
I start to crack under the stress
Can't contain myself
No telling what could happen next
I've got my back up against the wall
On my knees I had to crawl
This is the last line that I will draw
I've had enough sick of it all
I'm bout to go off
Overloaded
Any second I could blow
Overloaded
I have hit the limit and I'm ready to explode
Overloaded
I've gone as far as I can go
Overloaded
Something's got to give I'm pushing past the last threshold
So tightly wound
filled with rage
Can you hear the countdown
ticking away
Is it too late
I thought I'd pull myself together someday
but everyday it's getting harder to change
Everyday I'm getting harder to save
It's all I can take
You see me cracking under all of the weight
You see my spirit is beginning to break
I just want everybody out of the way
I'm bout to go off
A ticking time bomb
I'm overloaded
Any second I could blow
I got no self control
I have hit the limit and I'm ready to explode
I'm overloaded
As far I can go
the world can take a toll
Something's got to give I'm pushing past the last threshold
. . .

Holding my breath as I patiently wait
What could come next
You turned on a light in my gullible mind
I let you inside
Just like a child imagining what could be
I let it run wild
I was naive
It's too good to be true
Still I believed
You told me what I wanted to hear
Your words paint pictures so sincere
Well some things aren't as they appear
the fantasy is over
Storyteller storyteller
Telling tales so tall
A witness so false
Storyteller storyteller
You lead your audience on
For your fiction they fall
Believing the fraud
innocense lost
I was safe and secure
Now it's all gone
sorry I lied
Is that all you can say
sorry I tried
I was convinced
By the sweetest of talk
Not to resist
You'll be exposed
By the people you played
watch it unfold
You told me what I wanted to hear
Your words paint pictures so sincere
Well some things aren't as they appear
the fantasy is over
Storyteller storyteller
Telling tales so tall
A witness so false
Storyteller storyteller
You lead your audience on
For your fiction they fall
Believing the fraud
You told me what I wanted to hear
Your words paint pictures so sincere
