I know where you’re goin, I know where you’ve been.
I know that you're hiding deep within. Hide your sin deep within.
You said you could not choose one over all the rest,
you said there’s just not one that’s the best, they’re just different, different.
But even in the company of my best friends, some how I’m still alone.
All the time with you I was never far from home, I never felt all alone.
You asked me what I wanted, I said ‘nothin but you’,
that’s when it all would unravel.
I think about you, what was true? Was anything true?
You said I was everything you’d ever hoped, sometimes so much more.
Now all I get is icy disregard. Sharp steel, cold heart.
I want an open and real heart, I’ll take nothin less.
I expect what I’m given is what I’ll get. It’s not come yet, but that’s what I’ll get.
I’m holdin out for my best friend, tell me have you seen him around?
I know when I find him he’ll know just what he’s found. Real true heart and soul.
I know where I’m goin, I know where I’ve been.
I know I’m not hiding deep within, see my sin, I’m deep within.
I know where you’re goin...
Why?
(click play to listen)
How can they be that way? How can they walk away?
How can they turn and never look back?
Weren’t their hearts so completely entangled?
Weren’t they both so deeply in love?
Oh. I want to know why-why, why oh why.
Please tell me, why did she leave?
Please tell me, why was he so mean?
They both broke my heart in a million pieces.
I think I deserve to know the reasons.
I want to know why-why, why oh why.
Late in the night, when I’m alone that”s when the desperation sets in.
I don’t understand, and it doesn’t make sense to me.
Nothing is clear, and I want the truth oh.
I want to know why-why, why oh why.
I don’t expect I’ll ever know why,
I think it will eat at me until I die.
But fortunately with each passing day I know it will take smaller bites.
Oh I want to know why-why, why oh why-oh why?
Reckless
(Click play to listen)
Like a child at the toy box side, pick her toys and play with life.
It seemed so easy at the moment, easy at the moment, to her.
You come in now lets play house, you wait here I’m going out.
To her it’s just pretend, so there’s no pain when it ends.
She don’t know the damage she’s done. She just starts a brand new game.
One more time around, to me it’s all the same.
She is reckless with your heart, reckless with your heart, reckless with your heart.
I don’t think she ever heard ‘NO’. They raised her up and let her go.
Money there was so much of, so scarce was their love.
They were reckless with her heart, reckless with her heart, reckless with her heart.
She cuts deep and then she runs, She’s not the kind to be alone.
She’s gonna run out’a players, she’ll end up playing solitaire.
She is reckless with your heart, reckless with your heart, reckless with your heart.
Like a kid in the candy store, daddy daddy I want more.
He never sets a limit, she asks and then she gets it. Too bad.
She don’t know the damage she’s done.
Fallen
(Click play to listen)
The longer that I’m here with you the more I fall.
I never could’ve imagined that I’d have it all.
We could talk hours, but it’s 10 till 2. I cherish every moment that I’m with you.
I’m makin’ up for lost time.
I just can’t remember being more in love.
He often seems to know what I’m thinking of....
I know I can’t wait to get him alone. He know that I really want to jump Uhmm.
I’m makin’ up for lost time.
The sound of his voice puts my heart at ease.
I would often peek whenever he’d kiss me.
At times he has caught me as I stare. I’ve wondered what it is I’m doin’ here.
I’m makin’ up for lost time.
How quickly he turned into my best friend.
Just to hold his hand I was so content.
I would run to greet him so filled with joy. I could spend forever with just this boy.
I’m makin’ up for lost time.
This song is to remind you of the last time you fell.
That goofy little smile so all your friends could tell.
Nothin’ gets you down and you don’t have a care.
You know, when you feel like you’re walkin on air.
I’m makin’ up for lost time.
Marry (Key lead version)
(Click play to listen)
I could marry for comfort, I could marry for money.
It'd be so easy and I wouldn't have to worry, oh no.
I've had my chance propositions before me,
still here I stand cross-fingered still hopin’ for love.
It has happened for her and it's happened for him.
Oh please God let it happen again for me.
It is all about love, it's all about love,
it's all about love, at least it should be.
I could marry for power. I could marry for name.
Wouldn't be long and I would be insane.
I know some who have but their heart is dead.
They feel alone next to someone in bed.
It is all about love, it's all about love,
it's all about love, at least it should be.
I've heard others say that ‘my love is my best friend’.
Oh please God let that be your intension for me.
It is all about love, it's all about love,
it's all about love. At least it should be.
I don't care about power, name, comfort or money
'cause in the end it'll leave ya so empty.
I want to marry for love, I want to marry for joy.
I just have to find the right boy. I want to marry for love.
I want to marry for passion.
Oh please God don't make me keep askin' for love.
Just Like You
(Click play to listen)
I bleed, why can’t you see. My heart, breaks in two.
You think I’m so different, but I know. I’m just like you.
I feel hunger inside, I have dreams that won’t die.
Worries heavy on my mind, and sometimes. I’m just like you.
I break, just like you. I need, just like you.
I bleed, just like you. I love, just like you.
What do you wanna see, when you look at me?
Maybe if I act like you, dress just how you want me to,
then you’ll see I’m just like you.
You won’t really see me, just your own reflection.
How ‘bout an injection to make me think like you.
I’m right. Oh now I’m wrong. I’m weak and sometimes strong.
I see we don’t get along, because I’m just like you.
Wait, no, that’s a mistake. Now I see all your hate.
We are worlds apart. I see people with my heart,
and I see I’m not like you.
Remembered
(Click play to listen)
How should I remember you,
how do you want to be remembered?
When I was a child, I had a heart,
you wanted broken. Now please tell me why.
I remember in high school, you were so cruel.
All those cuts and jabs, without good reason.
Maybe home life was so rough,
they stood out from the rest of us.
Should I repent, just because I’m different?
I am so glad I am, because I know how I remember you.
With every step, that you take, why don’t you ask yourself.
How do I want to be remembered?
How should I remember you, how do you want to be remembered?
Red Brick Road

Where does it go, this red brick road I’m on?
If I don’t choose the yellow where will I go?
Is there a chance for redemption, redirection.
Will the red shoes bring me back to you, bring me home?
Young girl leaves mama at home, sets out on her own.
She finds it’s a hard life no matter where you go.
She’s on the street and all alone, you can hear her cry.
Where does it go, this red brick road I’ve been on.
If you don’t choose the yellow, where will you go.
Is there a chance for redemption, redirection.
Will the red shoes bring me back to you, mama bring me home?
Years go by she’s met the guy, that is her hearts desire.
They marry while their heart are still on fire.
He builds a wall, won’t let her in, she turns and says to him.
Where does it go, this red brick road that we’re on.
If we don’t take the yellow where do we go.
Is there a chance for redemption, redirection?
Will the red shoes bring me back to you bring you home?
Why don’t you point me, why don’t you show me?
Why don’t you guide me and take me home. Why don’t you take me,
why don’t you lead me home? Why don’t you show me, I think I’m lost.
Why don’t you show, show me the cost? Why don’t you guide me,
why don’t you lead me home? Why don’t you take me,
why don’t you take me? Why don’t you take me, how should I go?
Why don’t you take me, come on and take me home.
Why don’t you guide me, oh can you save me?
Open the door and show me the way, wanting to save me, promise to take me home.
This Is Not Really Me
(Click play to listen)
This is not really me.
I am not really what you see, this is not really me.
How can I explain, the mess and the pain.
Where to cast the anger and the blame?
This is not really me.
Now here comes the midnight intruder,
I stand beside myself and see what he has done to her.
This is not really me.
See me (please). I don’t think you see me.
See me (I wish). You could see me.
This is not really me.
Now you see the mask in which I hide.
Pick and choose in whom I can confide.
This is not really me.
Breath
(Click play to listen)
I am lying here, staring at the sky.
I can see you, from the corner of my eye.
My eyes are open and I can see. But I can't breathe.
Will I die here waiting, for the pain to subside?
I can hear you speaking, in the darkness of my mind.
But I can't breathe.
I can't believe this fatal wound is from you.
Oh my love, I thought so true. And I can't breathe.
I can hear the sirens, calling out my name.
So still I lie here fading, as the tear drops from my eye.
And I can't breathe. I am waiting, but I can't breathe.
