My Life (free) 01:42
lyrics

Hopscotching discotheques It's 2 A.M. I've lost my bet on you, coming to meet me. Good luck, I couldn't care less I'm leaving town, Seeing what life is all about. I'm breaking free from you... It's a New day I'm living now. Having faith to do without Flying solo, dropped the weight My life won't be cheated. My life, my life, my life... Clock chimes it's 6 A.M. Head buzzed at work again, I'm so sorry to be here. Good luck, go answer your own phone- ain't my style I gotta take off with dreams worth while. Better start believing... yes sir, yes sir, yes sir. Too many times, I've prayed 'till four. Thinking of noting I want more than to follow all my Childhood fantasies and play. New day I'm living now. Having faith to do without Flying solo, dropped the weight My life won't be cheated. My life, my life, my life...

Stupid Guy 01:52
lyrics

I caught you in the bedroom. You're stupid and your dumb. You simply could have told me you had someone else to love. Those gifts that you "bought" me were her clothes that She left there, So I got a match to light them 'cause who needs old Underwear? Oh, Burn, burn, burn It's someone else's turn. You broke my heart I wanna die, Who needs a stupid guy? I see a shy young fellow. He's your friend and I don't care. I'm hot with how you treated me, We'll see who's heart gets spared. We danced at club cabana, dripping skin, hands out of sight. That's when I learned your friend's no mister, Maybe she'll turn out alright? Oh I, never loved a girl. Never tried all those quiet smiles. As you are my witness now, There's no lying, testifying, Believe the change in me! Burn, burn, burn It's someone else's turn. You broke my heart I wanna die, Who needs a stupid guy?

Fly 02:08
lyrics

Once, on a rocky little shore, In a wooden little nest, lived a bird for so long. Then, on a fateful little night, With belief nowhere in sight Lightning struck while God sang: Fly, fly away see all that you can. Take, take the days before they turn to sand. You were made to soar through the highest mountain top. Spread your wings, with a leap, Take the sky. Now on a dustly little road, In a trodden little house, Lived a girl for so long.

Far Cry 02:13
lyrics
buy track
I never thought that being me could keep you far away. Or looked upon so strangely I could hear you all debate. If I think that life could ever be so friendly then my fears need to escape. So as it come to me and you, Outsider is the only game we play. You're a far cry from heaven, I'm a far cry from hell. Your a far cry from sinnen', I'm to far a cry to tell. Stop staring in the mirror or we'll leave ourselves to blame. Caught among the rubble leaving my thoughts lost from view. Yes I know that you're no better how you never ever leave inside your head. So as it come to me and you, Outsider is the only game we play. You're a far cry from heaven, I'm a far cry from hell. Your a far cry from sinnen', I'm to far a cry to tell. Outside: We keep our paper castles 'till they last Outside: We pray that if we give we shall receive Outside: We grow past broken knuckles, bloodied feet Outside: We hide smiling proud just to deceive You're a far cry from heaven, I'm a far cry from hell. Your a far cry from sinnen', I'm to far a cry to tell.

Ain't nobody payen' no mind Ain't nobody keepen' with time Ain't nobody... don't you worry now. Ain't nobody stopen' to look Ain't nobody liven' but crooks Ain't nobody commen'...tonight. I remember somebody told me, people need a little more action. I want someone who's tryen'- second glance I know you're out there. Live baby Breath baby World ain't stopped spinning 'round Fight baby Cry baby I'll love you when you frown Don't be nobody be the somebody.... Somebody I want to love. Ain't nobody cryen' but fools Ain't nobody passen' in school Ain't nobody... give me reason's now Ain't nobody given' out wine Ain't nobody given' their time Ain't nobody touchen' the sky Truth be told I lost me somewhere... older now a little bit tougher. Sometimes I need somebody for me.. second glance I know you're out there. Live baby Breath baby World ain't stopped spinning 'round Fight baby Cry baby I'll love you when you frown Don't be nobody be the somebody.... Somebody I want to love will Take, the longer road Change their human code Stand up and be somebody counted and Break the lazy mind Make me want to be better for you Live baby Breath baby World ain't stopped spinning 'round Fight baby Cry baby I'll love you when you frown Don't be nobody be the somebody.... Somebody I want to love. (ad libs) Love me!
