"Superheroes"
All her life she has seenAll the meaner side of me
They took away the prophet's dream for a profit on the street
Now she's stronger than you knowA heart of steel starts to grow
All his life he's been toldHe'll be nothing when he's oldAll the kicks and all the blows
He won't ever let it show
'Cause he's stronger than you knowA heart of steel starts to grow
When you've been fighting for it all your lifeYou've been struggling to make things right
That's how a superhero learns to fly(Every day, every hour
Turn the pain into power)
When you've been fighting for it all your lifeYou've been working every day and night
That's how a superhero learns to fly(Every day, every hour
Turn the pain into power)
All the hurt, all the liesAll the tears that they cry
When the moment is just rightYou see fire in their eyes
'Cause he's stronger than you knowA heart of steel starts to grow
When you've been fighting for it all your life
You've been struggling to make things rightThat's how a superhero learns to fly
Every day, every hourTurn the pain into power
When you've been fighting for it all your lifeYou've been working every day and night
That's how a superhero learns to fly
(Every day, every hourTurn the pain into power)
(Power, power, power, power, power)(Power, power, power, power, power)
(Every day, every hourTurn the pain into power)
(Power, power, power, power, power)(Power, power, power, power, power)
(Every day, every hourTurn the pain into power)
"Talk You Down"
I can feel the colour runningAs it's fading from my face
Try to speak but nothing's comingNothing I could say to make you stay
Grabbed your suitcase, called a taxiIt's 3 AM, now where you gonna go?
Gonna stay with friends in LondonAnd that's all I get to know
Just a cigarette goneNo, you couldn't' be that far
I'm driving my car to where I hope you areMaybe I can talk you downMaybe I can talk you down
Oh, we're standing on a tiny ledgeBefore this goes over the edge
Gonna use my heart and not my headAnd try to open up your eyes
This is relationship suicide
'Cause if you go, I go.'Cause if you go, I go.
Taking shortcuts through the alleysWhile you're racing through my mind
Cops can chase but they won't catch meNot before I get to speak my mind
If there's still time
Just a cigarette goneNo, you couldn't be that far
I'm driving my car to where I hope you areMaybe I can talk you downMaybe I can talk you down
Oh, we're standing on a tiny ledgeBefore this goes over the edge
Gonna use my heart and not my headAnd try to open up your eyes
This is relationship suicide
'Cause if you go, I go.'Cause if you go, I go.'Cause if you go, I go.'Cause if you go, I go.
We're standing on a tiny ledgeBefore this goes over the edge
Gonna use my heart and not my head, oh.We're standing on a tiny ledgeBefore this goes over the edge
Gonna use my heart and not my head.
Just a cigarette goneNo, you couldn't be that far
I'm driving my car to where I hope you areMaybe I can talk you downMaybe I can talk you down
Oh, we're standing on a tiny ledgeBefore this goes over the edge
Gonna use my heart and not my headAnd try to open up your eyes
This is relationship suicide
'Cause if you go, I go.'Cause if you go, I go.'Cause if you go, I go.'Cause if you go, I go.
"The End Where I Begin"
Sometimes tears say all there is to saySometimes your first scars won't ever fade away
Tried to break my heart Well it's broke
Tried to hang me high Well I'm choked
Wanted rain on meWell I'm soaked
Soaked to the skin
It's the end where I begin It's the end where I begin
Sometimes we don't learn from our mistakes Sometimes we've no choice but to walk away, away
Tried to break my heart Well it's broke
Tried to hang me high Well I'm choked
Wanted rain on meWell I'm soaked
Soaked to the skin
It's the end where I begin It's the end where I begin
Now I'm aliveand my ghosts are gone
I've shed all the painI've been holding on The cure for a heart
Is to move along, is to move alongSo move along
[X3]
What don't kill a heartOnly makes it strong
It's the End where IEnd where I
End where I begin
Sometimes we don't learn from our mistakes Sometimes we've no choice but to walk away, away
"If You Could See Me Now"
(Oh if you could see me now)
(Oh if you could see me now)
It was February 14 Valentine's DayThe roses came but they took you away
Tattooed on my arm is a charm to disarm all the harmGotta keep myself calm but the truth is you're gone
And I'll never get to show you these songsDad you should see the tours that I'm on
I see you standing there next to MomBoth singing along, yeah arm in arm
Now there are days when I'm losing my faithBecause the man wasn't good he was great
He'd say "Music was the home for your pain"And explain I was young, he would say
Take that rage, put it on a pageTake the page to the stageBlow the roof off the place
I'm trying to make you proudDo everything you did
I hope you're up there with God saying "That's my kid!"
[Chorus:]I still look for your face in the crowd
Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow
Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)
(Oh if you could see me now)
If you could see me now would you recognize me?Would you pat me on the back or would you criticize me?
Would you follow every line on my tear-stained facePut your hand on a heart that was cold
As the day you were taken away?I know it's been a while but I can see you clear as day
Right now, I wish I could hear you sayI drink too much, and I smoke too much dutchBut if you can't see me now that shit's a must
You used to say I won't know a win till it cost meLike I won't know real love till I've loved and I've lost it
So if you've lost a sister, someone's lost a momAnd if you've lost a dad then someone's lost a son
And they're all missing out, yeah they're all missing outSo if you get a second to look down on me now
Mom, Dad I'm just missing you now
I still look for your face in the crowdOh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)
Would you stand in disgrace or take a bowOh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)
Oh, ohWould you call me a saint or a sinner?Would you love me a loser or winner?
Oh, ohWhen I see my face in the mirror
We look so alike that it makes me shiver
I still look for your face in the crowd
Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow
Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)Yeah I'm just missing you now
I still look for your face in the crowdOh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)
Would you stand in disgrace or take a bowOh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)
You could see, you could see me now [x2]

"Man On A Wire"
Who'd have thought that I'd be here by myself?Who'd have thought that you'd be bad for my health?
Now I know, now I know I'm just a man on a wireWho'd have thought about the cause and effect?
Yesterday's love is not tomorrow's regretNow I know, now I know I'm just a man on a wire
No, I can't look downI'm trying to fight the feeling
I will fall to the groundIf I ever see you
'Cause I feel like I'm walkin' on a tightrope
My heart is in my throatI'm counting on high hopes to get me over you
And I've got my eyes closed
As long as the wind blowsI'm counting on high hopes to get me over you, you
'Cause I'm a man on a wire, on a wireI'm a man on a wire, on a wire
Who'd have thought I'd see you with someone else?Who'd have thought that I'd be in such a mess?
Now you know, now you know I'm just a man on a wire
But I walk that lineI try to keep my senses
Make it to the other sideI know the consequences
and I feel like I'm walkin' on a tightrope
My heart is in my throatI'm counting on high hopes to get me over you
And I've got my eyes closedAs long as the wind blows
I'm counting on high hopes to get me over you, you
'Cause I'm a man on a wire, on a wireI'm a man on a wire, on a wire
'Cause I'm a man on a wire, on a wire'Cause I'm a man on a wire, on a wire
The higher I getThe more I miss the ground
No safety netsNow you're not aroundI have to keep walking
To keep me from falling downFeels like I'm walkin' on a tightrope
My heart is in my throatI'm counting on high hopes to get me over you
And I've got my eyes closed

Walk Away"
I don't know why she's with meI only brought her trouble since the day she met me
If I was her, by now I would have left meI would have walked away But now I've broken away
Somehow instead she forgave meShe said a woman's got to do what she's got to do
Even if it means she denied herself the truthCause when you're in too deep you wake up when it's too late,
You've fallen in love in the worst wayAnd if you don't go now then you'll stay
Cause I'll never let you leave, never let you breatheCause if you're looking for heaven, baby it sure as hell ain't me
So walk away(walk away)
Walk away, ohSave yourself from the heartache, oh
Go now before it's too lateSo walk away(walk away)
Walk away, ohSave yourself from the heartache, oh
Go now before it's too lateBut still she stays
She's standing in the heart of darkness
Saying I know you got a soul even though you're heartlessHow could any woman in their right mind be so blind,
To find something this safeInstead of walking with me she should have walked away
She finds color in the darkest placesShe finds beauty in the saddest of facesFor such a clued in, headstrong city girl
Could've had the world but she's fallen in love in the worst wayAnd if you don't go now then you'll stay
Cause I'll never let you leave, never let you breatheCause if you're looking for heaven, baby it sure as hell ain't me
So walk away(walk away)
Walk away, ohSave yourself from the heartache, oh
Go now before it's too lateSo walk away(walk away)
Walk away, ohSave yourself from the heartache, oh
Go now before it's too lateBut still she stays
(Oh, yeah)But still she stays
(Oh, yeah)
I don't know why she's with meI only brought her trouble since the day she met me
If I was her, by now I would have left meI would have walked away
But you've fallen in love in the worst wayAnd if you don't go now then you'll stay
Cause I'll never let you leave, never let you breatheCause if you're looking for heaven, baby it sure as hell ain't me
So walk away(walk away)
Walk away, ohSave yourself from the heartache, oh
Go now before it's too lateSo walk away(walk away)
Walk away, ohSave yourself from the heartache, oh
Go now before it's too lateBut still she stays

YeahI'm saying walk away
(Save yourself from the heartache, go now before it's too late)But still she stays
Still she staysYeah, she stays

"Give The Love Around"
To your brother, to your sisterTo your missus, to your misterTo your friends, to your foes
Give the love around and back around it goes
Evil comes from the top and it spreads right roundIf you treat a man wrong, he's gon' pass it on down
To the next in line, who's probably his wifeBringin' up his kids now watchin' momma cry
And they pick it up cause they learn everythingLife has a funny way of going in a ring
End up growing up in trouble with the lawStanding in the cuffs that the father once wore
Now it seems that every brand new generationHave all been growing up with cracks in the foundationThey're trying to fill the holes of a whole damn nation
That's lost its trust, yeah (that's lost its trust)We gotta change before the train leaves the station
And realize that revolution ain't a revelationIt takes blood, sweat, tears and innovation
It starts with us (it starts with us)
Yeah it starts by givin' love to your brother, givin' love to your sisterGivin' love to your missus, love to your misterGivin' love to your friends, love to your foes
Give the love around and back around it goesGivin' love to your brother, givin' love to your sister
Givin' love to your missus, love to your misterGivin' love to your friends, love to your foes
Give the love around and back around it goesGive the love around and back around it goes
Oh, we're all just spokes workin' in a wheelSpinnin' all around life's cruel battlefield
Draw a circle in the sand on a rainy day, watch it wash awayI bet is shows up on a sunny beach a thousand miles away
A flutter from a butterfly cause a stormOver half a million people die
But we don't care because we're all desensitizedWe don't realize we're putting all this shit before our children's eyes
Now every brand new generationHave all been growing up with cracks in the foundationThey're trying to fill the holes of a whole damn nation
That's lost its trust, yeah (that's lost its trust)We gotta change before the train leaves the station
And realize that revolution ain't a revelationIt takes blood, sweat, tears and innovation
It starts with us (it starts with us)
Yeah it starts by givin' love to your brother, givin' love to your sisterGivin' love to your missus, love to your misterGivin' love to your friends, love to your foes
Give the love around and back around it goesGivin' love to your brother, givin' love to your sister

Give the love around and back around it goesGive the love around and back around it goesGive the love around and back around it goes
Love to your friends, love to your foesGive the love around and back around it goes
See the thing about karma is she loves a bit of dramaYeah loves to hunt you down and pay you back for the things you did
Before you turn a positive to a negativeBetter pray you know exactly who the fuck you're dealing with
No this is not a dress rehearsal, let me tell you kidWhatever you put out there's coming back again
Years may burn (oh), tables gonna turn
And karma's comin' back aroundEither way you're gonna learn
To give love to your neighbour, love to yourselfIt don't matter 'bout your statusMan, your health is your wealthWe can all point the finger but
There's four pointing back at yourselfI'll be the bigger man, now give a little help
Givin' love to your brother, givin' love to your sisterGivin' love to your missus, love to your misterGivin' love to your friends, love to your foes

Love to your friends, love to your foesGive the love around and back around it goes
Around it goes, around it goesGive the love around and back around it goes
Around it goes, around it goesGive the love around and back around it goes
Around it goes, around it goesAround it goes, around it goes
Give the love around and back around it goes
"Without Those Songs"
Would Dylan be just a poet?Would Bono ever know it without those songs?
Would Marley be just a stoner?Johnny Cash just be a loner without those songs?
Would Buddy Holly have disappeared?Or would Lennon still be here without those songs?
What happened in their lives?What happened in their hearts?
To make them want to write the wordsGonna tear this world apart
The beauty of their livesIs when they're dead and gone
The world still sings alongWhen anything went right
When anything went wrongThey put it in a song
Would Elvis be just a lookOr the Rolling Stones be stuck without those songs?
Would Sinatra be just a gangsterOr would Jackson be just a dancer without those songs?
Would Madonna be just a face?Or Nirvana be just a place without those songs?
What happened in their lives?What happened in their hearts?
To make them want to write the wordsGonna tear this world apart
The beauty of their livesIs when they're dead and gone
The world still sings alongWhen anything went right
When anything went wrongThey put it in a song
