I don't think you have the slightest clue, who I am, why I'm here
but still you feel the need to judge every move I make
Can you see the world through my eyes?
If you could only then you'd realize
Why I can't.. why I won't just walk away
and leave behind everything I've grown to be
So this is how it's going to be
you feel the need to look down on me
well, go ahead it won't change a thing
it's who I am, and I have nothing to prove
Why don't you close your eyes and open your mind
it's only then you will find the truth that lies deep inside
of everyone you've pushed aside.
Can you see the world through my eyes?
If you could only then you'd realize
Why I can't.. why I won't just walk away
and leave behind everything I've grown to be
You'll never get to me
You can go ahead, put me down again
It won't change a thing, I know who I am
You can go ahead, put me down again
It won't change a thing, I have nothing to prove.

Now I see

I should have seen it coming, but I looked the other way
I didn't want to think that you would turn your back on me
Now I can see, you're just a fake. You never cared about me.
How could I be so fucking Naïve? You lied to my face, but now I see.
Now I see the truth.
I never want to believe
that you would turn your back on me.
This is the end of what we had.
How could you call me a friend?
I should've seen it coming from the start.
The warning signs were all there.
Fake smile, countless lies, broken promises, from now on...
I'll never back down from the truth.

Roll The Dice
02:03

This is our only chance, I won't just let it pass.
This life's too fucking short, to never take a chance.
I've got to do what I know is right, follow what's in my heart.
Taking the safe way out is not the life for me.
I've wasted too many years, sitting back watching time fly by.
Now's the time to make my move, I won't waste another day
Cause time's not on my side.
I won't sit back and watch,
I'll learn from my mistakes
I won't live with regret or be ashamed.
I won't back down from fear.
I found a way to deal. I'll live life for myself
Roll the dice
taking a fucking chance
Roll the dice
before it's too late
Roll the dice
and you look back
Roll the dice
on a life of regret.

Holding On

Here I go once again, The same old cycle starts again,
Everyday it's all the same. This time I won't play your game.
You made it clear you don't approve the way I feel, the things I do.
If that's the case that's just fine I don't need you.
Right here, Right now
I'm still here, holding on, to who I am.
I won't change, not for you..I'm moving on
Here I go once again, by myself but that's okay.
I'm still here holding on to who I know I am inside.
Why is so hard to see, I'm going to live my life for me.
I will never compromise who I am.
Right here, Right now.
Am I ever going to get this right
Am I ever going to see the light
Are we ever going to get this right
Are we ever going to see the light
Right here, right now, tonight.
This is my life
Right here, right now, tonight
I'm taking it back.

Running In Sand
02:21

What do you do when every day the world grows colder,
is there hope?
Did our dreams die with our youth?
Is there more to life than this same routine
of check to check and day to day.
How much longer can I take this shit.
Sometimes I want to give up
No, I won't quit
I'll find a way.
I'll push on
In this world we try so hard to get ahead, but what's that mean?
Are you living your own dreams?
Do you still have pride in who you are today?
Is this who you want to be?
Now turn around and ask yourself are you happy?
Sometimes I want to give up
No, I won't quit
I'll find a way.
I'll push on
Sometimes I feel like I'm running in sand.
I give it my all, but I'm going nowhere fast.
But still I won't give in I'm not ready
to die just yet, I won't quit
I still have a lot of fight left
so don't count me out just yet.
I'm not dead
In this world, we try so hard to impress everyone except
except ourselves.. well not this time.

Solitary Confinement

You close your eyes to hide
from this world and the pain it brings
tonight and every night of your life
There's nowhere to run
nowhere to hide
so take my hand
and start to fight
Don't you give in
don't you give up
hold your head high
I'm by your side
Open your eyes you'll find
that I'm still right here by your side
tonight and I'm not going away
and though you chose to turn around and walk away
I want you to know
You're not alone
No you're not alone
open your eyes and you'll see that you can count on me
I've got your back we're family
open your eyes, you can count on me
I'm still here nothings changed
