Throwdown 02:35
It starts slow, the sound of a heart breaking, we’ve come to know mil-lions of miles from home, where do we go? So come down, the line gets shorter with every round take your turn, turn, turn, and just throw it down, down down.

I moved to the other side of town Where the grass is greener I hope Thought I had it figured out But there’s so much I don’t know I took a chance, dealt my hand I remember so well, remember so well you say Just take it or leave it Just take it or leave it There’s no in between it, no taste and see it You gotta take it or leave it Brought up with a simple state of mind, Surrounded by glittering lights Prince’s parade past my eyes While I’m locked in my tower so high I took a chance, dealt my hand I remember so well, remember so well you say Just take it or leave it Just take it or leave it There’s no in between it, no taste and see it You gotta take it or leave it What happens to the ones who, can’t decide, What they really need, I’m standing right In front of their eyes, I’m trying to find A balance between wrong and then right, Pursuing their happiness it isn’t quite, As easy as living between the lines

What happened to love your neighbour, love your father when now it’s all about conquer one, outdo the other brother, who wants to stand on their own, when inside of each other lies a murderaa. truth isn’t only in the eye of the beholder, you sow your seeds for the day when this life is over You take the good with the bad, and the bad with the broken Is this the life, they way, and the move we’ve chosen, Could we be the good ones Could we be the good ones Could we be the good, like the way we should Could we be the good ones What happened? I ask myself and still I wonder Because to love, is the be and end all, I remember Don’t let your fear take control cuz inside each other lies a murderah truth isn’t only in the eye of the beholder, you sow your seeds for the day when this life is over You take the good with the bad, and the bad with the broken Could we be the good ones Could we be the good ones Could we be the good, like the way we should Could we be the good ones Bridge Nothing you could ever say, could change my mind Something’s just can’t be explained, so I’m not gonna try but I feel the world is crying, crying for new life. Could we be the good ones Could we be the good ones Could we be the good, like the way we should Could we be the good ones

Good In Me 03:26
Many questions I’ve got but no body wants to take the Time – to answer or to hear me out Control they try to take from me I cannot help the way I feel My heart beat beats so quickly like its running away, running away and you Knock me down Take a shot Place your bets Give it all you got. Make your move While you can Got one chance Do you need a hand? Cuz I’ve got no trouble believing That one day I’ll fall But I will get up again Is this the way to redeeming The good in me? The good in me It’s the have and the have nots, is it in me to take all the- blame and sorrow, to turn the system inside out! Control they try to take from me I cannot help the way I feel My heart beat beats so quickly like its running away, running away and you Knock me down Take a shot Place your bets Give it all you got. Make your move While you can Got one chance Do you need a hand? Cuz I’ve got no trouble believing That one day I’ll fall But I will get up again Is this the way to redeeming The good in me? The good in me Everyday I wrestle with denial tell myself I’ve got to fight the battle for survival so evil haffi die and I’m a haffi be the killa Everyday I wrestle with denial, could i be the one start the battle for revival so evil haffi die and I’m a haffi be the killa Knock me down Take a shot Place your bets Give it all you got. Make your move While you can Got one chance Do you need a hand? Cuz I’ve got no trouble believing That one day I’ll fall But I will get up again Is this the way to redeeming The good in me? The good in me

You Got Me 03:34
I’ve got no words, I’ve got no feeling you, just take them away, like I don’t need them I, can’t cry no more, can’t even lie no more You’ve got me truly believing that Livin’ ain’t livin’ until you’re truly living here with me then - I feel you getting closer I feel you taking over I feel you got me, got me good I feel the way you move me Broken, but still you choose me I feel you got me, got me good. All my desires, to you I give them My life had no purpose, till you gave me meaning I can’t decide no more got off the train I was aboard you give me such a confident feelin’, that living ain’t livin’ until you’re living here with me then - I feel you getting closer I feel you taking over I feel you got me, got me good I feel the way you move me Broken, but still you choose me I feel you got me, got me good Now look at what you’ve done now, you think you’re having all the fun now Won’t you look at what you’ve done now, giving me the run around

Crash 03:28
I’ve got to crash, so I can get back up again Start it from scratch, it’s the only way I’ll ever win It’s the only way I’ll ever win, heart beats a little faster now It’s the only way I’ll ever win, got rid of what was holding me down It’s the only way I’ll ever win, I feel the end is coming soon It’s the only way I’ll ever win, but that just means I’m starting a new
7.
Final Round 04:51
Maybe I’m just nervous, maybe I’m a bit naive Maybe I deserve this, maybe this was meant to be I’ll bring my best behavior, would that be enough for prove? that I don’t need no saving, I just need the honest truth When everything goes down, in the final round Will I be the one left standing round, When the fire’s out, and there’s nothing left to burn down In the final round, it’s finished and I’m starting over now, In the final round Maybe I’m just changing, cuz lately I don’t understand cuz my thoughts are rearranging, but my fears have all taken a stand When everything goes down, in the final round Will I be the one left standing round, When the fire’s out, and there’s nothing left to burn down In the final round, it’s finished and I’m starting over now, In the final round Cause when the end comes and when my time is out I’ll be standing at the finish line taking my final bow

I wanna go, I wanna go, to Paris and Rome cause maybe my heart is waiting there for me. I wanna see, I wanna see, just how it feels when somebody truly cares for me So all I ask, is if you find it Tell me fast, don’t you hide it Because if my heart is a traveller could I be the one who’s worthy to guide it and will it lead me right to where you are Because if my heart is a traveller could I get a first class ticket to find it, and will it be exactly where you are Now I’m in my fast car, going 90 on the autobahn I’m slipping in and out of thinking that there could be something wrong I’ve got my destination figured out, but my maps all wrong See I’ve been driving round in circles, so I stop to ask where I should go I feel it in my heart I’m getting closer, but they tell me no I just can’t stop, searching for you So all I ask, is if you find it Tell me fast, don’t you hide it cause where you are, is where I wanna be heart and soul, there’s no place I’d rather be

Unfortunate love, chooses the wrong time Unfortunate love, never seems to get it right And you, you , you , you tell me that it’s true, true, true you say, don’t hold your breath, cuz you’ll just end up dead Unfortunate love, makes a sane man lose his mind Unfortunate love, claims a victim every time And you, you, you , you tell me that it’s true, true, true you say, don’t hold your breath, cuz you’ll just end up dead We played it out like a sad song in a sad movie on a bad day, but Lord knows these might be the roles we are meant to play Unfortunate love, takes and never seems to give Unfortunate love, makes a heart hate to forgive And you, you , you , you tell me that it’s true, true, true you say, don’t hold your breath, cuz you’ll just end up dead We played it out like a sad song in a sad movie on a bad day, but Lord knows these might be the roles we are meant to play

The Sound 02:51
I hear bells, calling me out like two lovers fighting nothing short of amazing they’re kindly inviting and slightly alarming, do I deserve, life after earth? Cuz I remember, back, to a different state of mind when, Everything around was so much simpler Back to a different way of life, now is it too late? Have I made a mistake? Bright lights, are guiding me up to the gate Could this be real? Could this be true? Could this be how, I’d come back to you? Now I’m not sure, just what to say (cause I broke the) promise we made when you went away Could this be me? Could this be you? So far removed and slightly askew Could this be how, we reunite what we’ve found? My time’s running out, I hear the sound I hear the sound, I am aware.
