1. TEAR IT DOWN

Listen up, think it's time that we started talking
About everything that's going down
Can you see it too? They never seem to tell the truth
Listen up, 'cause I know the tension's sinking
Is it you they're always bringing down?
Now it's time they lose
We'll take it back
We'll run 'em all right through

Built it up, tear it down now
Build it up, tear it down
We ain't taking no more

Built it up, tear it down now
Build it up, tear it down
We ain't taking no more

Why were we fighting?
When we don’t have time to let go
(...?)
Why were we fighting?
When we don’t have time, no, we don't have time
So let's go!

Give it up, think it's time that you started praying
Can't have another wasted life
You're not so concerned
You're selling out the blood you earned
Give it up, I can feel your anger rising
Feel the smoke that has been blinding eyes
Now the tide has turned
You'll breath the ash from bridges that you burned

Built it up, tear it down now
Build it up, tear it down
We ain't taking no more

Built it up, tear it down now
Build it up, tear it down
We ain't taking no more

Why were we fighting?
When we don’t have time to let go(now we're ready to go)
Why were we fighting?
When we don’t have time, no, we don't have time
So let's go!

I know I can
I know I can
I know I can be free
I know I can
I know I can
I know I can be free

Why were we fighting?
When we don’t have time to let go (now we're ready to go)
Why were we fighting?
When we don’t have time, no, we don't have time
So let's go!


2. UP FROM THE ASHES

It's time to look me in the eyes
It's time to read between the lines
That you'd leave me here for dead
But I'm not done yet
I've got nothing left to lose
I've got everything to prove
After all you put me through

I'm ready
I'm ready to fight
I'm ready
I'm ready to fight

I won't give in
I'm not that easy
I'll live again
Keep on breathing
I'll bleed my last regrets
Sometimes you got to burn the past yeah!
To rise up, rise up from the ashes

It's time to cut through all this dirt
It's time to bury that hurts
God help me leave this all behind
I've got to survive
I've got nothing left to lose
I've got everything to prove
After all you put me through

I'm ready
I'm ready to fight
I'm ready
I'm ready to fight

I won't give in
I'm not that easy
I'll live again
Keep on breathing
I'll bleed my last regrets
Sometimes you got to burn the past yeah!
To rise up, rise up from the ashes

Rise up
Rise up from the ashes
Rise up
Rise up from the ashes
Rise up
Rise up from the ashes
Rise up
Rise up from the ashes

I'm ready
I'm ready to fight
I'm ready
I'm ready to fight
I'm ready
I'm ready to fight
I'm ready
I'm ready to fight

I won't give in
I'm not that easy
I'll live again
Keep on breathing
I'll bleed my last regrets
Sometimes you got to burn the past yeah!
To rise up, rise up from the ashes

I won't give in
Rise up
Rise up from the ashes
I'll live again
Rise up
Rise up from the ashes

I'll bleed my last regrets
Sometimes you got to burn the past yeah!
To rise up, rise up from the ashes

Rise up
Rise up from the ashes
Rise up
Rise up from the ashes


3. STRANDED

I've been roaming these streets for days
I fight these feelings alone
I haven't seen anyone around me
But I know that I'll keep moving along
The sun is tracking down and I'm under attack
I just can't break from the heat
This wasteland's got me and there's nowhere to hide
And I don't know if I'll get out alive

You'll find me stranded
And falling apart
You'll find me stranded
And lost from the start
Feels like I'm left for dead and I don't have a clue
And if I don't quite make it out soon
You'll find me stranded

This desert prison is where I stay
Shackled down to the bone
I know the feeling of being bound
But I know that I keep moving along
The blood is flowing and my eyes are going red
I'm half way beaten to death
This wasteland's got me and there's no where to hide
And I don't know if I'll get out alive

You'll find me stranded
And falling apart
You'll find me stranded
And lost from the start
Feels like I'm left for dead and I don't have a clue
And if I don't quite make it out soon
You'll find me stranded

I'll be standing when the dust has settled
And get the demons off my back
I will find a new horizon
Somewhere I don't go mad
I've been down I've been bruised I've been broken
And if I don't get up this time

You'll find me stranded
And falling apart
You'll find me stranded
And lost from the start
Feels like I'm left for dead and I don't have a clue
And if I don't quite make it out soon

You'll find me stranded
And falling apart
You'll find me stranded
And lost from the start
Feels like I'm left for dead and I don't have a clue
And if I don't make it out soon
You'll find me stranded


4. THREW IT ALL AWAY

Come close and you'll see every imperfection
Because my scars still bare a shame that I can't hide
Come close and you'll see I'm heading in the wrong direction
Always getting lost but I'm not hard to find
What if heaven could hear me screaming
What if heaven could hear me now

Lord knows I've tried to change
I sacrifice and keep falling everyday
I was taken every chance
I was living too fast
I was throwing it all away
And I threw it all away

Come close and you'll see it was never my intention
But I know I have wronged so many rights
Come close and you'll see that I fight to seek redemption
All the wounds will heal but I know it will take time
I know heaven can hear me screaming
I know heaven can hear me now

Lord knows I've tried to change
I sacrifice and keep falling everyday
I was taken every chance
I was living too fast
I was throwing it all away
And I threw it all away

Lord knows I've tried to change
I sacrifice and keep falling everyday
I was taken every chance
I was living too fast
I was throwing it all away
And I threw it all away
And I threw it all away


5. ALONE

Something's burning inside of me
Can I put out the flame
Before I'm laid to waste
Hear I stand it's getting hard to breathe
Now I can feel the burn
it's getting cold and lonely

Stay because I'm feeling alone
And I need you more than you know
Don't leave because I'm under attack
And you don't have a reason to go
Don't leave me alone

I've been living too blind to see
How do you know my name
Why are we all the same
I count all the memories
The bitterness of old
How is my life unfolding

Stay because I'm feeling alone
And I need you more than you know
Don't leave because I'm under attack
And you don't have a reason to go
Don't leave me alone

I'm going to end up
Going to end up wasting away
I'm going to end up
Going to end up wasting away

Stay because I'm feeling alone
And I need you more than you know
Don't leave because I'm under attack
And you don't have a reason to go
Don't leave me alone

Stay because I'm feeling alone
And I need you more than you know
Don't leave because I'm under attack
And you don't have a reason to go
Don't leave me alone

Don't leave me alone
Don't leave me alone


6. STUCK IN A RUT

Sometimes my life is a mess
Sometimes I have my regrets

Sometimes I just can't find my way
And sometimes I just don't have a say

I know that I've seen better days
I know that hearts been broken

I know that I'm goin' be okay
I know that there's still hope and

I'm Holding on for the moment,
I'm holding on

I'm in the wrong frame of mind,
I'm in the wrong place, wrong time

Stuck in the middle of a rut
And I gotta find a way to get outta here

Sometimes my life is a bore
Sometimes I don't know the score

Sometimes I just finish in last
And sometimes I just don't stand a chance

I know that I've seen better days,
I know this hearts been broken

I know that I'm goin' be okay
I know that there's still hope and

I'm Holding on for the moment,
I'm holding on

I'm in the wrong frame of mind,
I'm in the wrong place, wrong time

Stuck in the middle of a rut
And I gotta find a way to get outta here

I gotta get outta here
I gotta get outta here
I know I can find a way

Sometimes my life is a mess
Sometimes I have my regrets

I'm in the wrong frame of mind,
I'm in the wrong place, wrong time

Stuck in the middle of a rut
And I gotta find a way to get outta here

I walked through the open door
But I've been this way before

Stuck in the middle of a rut
And I gotta find a way to get outta here

I gotta get outta here
I gotta get outta here

I walked through the open door
But I've been this way before

Stuck in the middle of a rut
And I gotta find a way to get outta here


7. GIVE ME A SIGN

We're getting nowhere fast
We're living in the past
And I don't understand why we're still here
Seems we paid the price
We wasted half our lives
And I don't understand why we're still here
Oh Lord please give me a sign

What are we waiting for
Seems like it's been so long
We search for answers with our hands up in the air
And I know it's true
That someday I will find you
But I think we're running out of time
Oh Lord please give me a sign

We've turned up every stone
Searching for our souls
And I don't understand why we're still here
The choice of wrong and right
The never ending fight
And I don't understand why we're still here
Oh Lord please give me a sign

What are we waiting for
Seems like it's been so long
We search for answers with our hands up in the air
And I know it's true
That someday I will find you
But I think we're running out of time
Oh Lord please give me a sign

Lately I've been feeling kind of lonely
Feeling like I'm on my own
Because I know I'm lost without you
I know we're lost without you

What are we waiting for
Seems like it's been so long
We search for answers with our hands up in the air
I know that we'll survive
We'll make it through the night
We'll keep on moving because I know we're almost there

And I know it's true
That someday I will find you
But I think we're running out of time
Oh Lord please give me a sign


8. DAKOTA

Searching for your salvation
Looking for what is true
You turn the pages hoping for a way to start a new
You hear, but you don't listen
Become another victim
I know you're fighting wars that never end

You got something to say now
You got something to say now, yeah

I know you're falling apart' cos your face shows a pain That is real
Drives you insane
Medicate
Now I think you've lost your brain,
But I don't know where ya gonna go

I thought you learned your lesson
You're just another fool
You trip on raw emotion
Emptiness is now your tomb
A rat in your own prison
Lost faith before you'd risen
I know you're fighting wars that never end

You got something to say now
You got something to say now, yeah

I know you're falling apart 'cos your face shows a pain That is real
Drives you insane
Medicate
Now I think you've lost your brain,
But I don't know where ya gonna go

Where ya gonna go?

I know you're falling apart 'cos your face shows a pain That is real
Drives you insane
Medicate
Now I think you've lost your brain,
But I don't know where ya gonna go


9. REST MY SOUL

Why did we go wrong
Why did it take so long
I can't help but feel the pressure building up inside
It came down from up high
Always have to fight
Don't know why I keep on looking nothing's doing
Don't know why I keep on losing

Take a moment and shut the door
So I can rest my soul
Take a moment and shut the door
So I can rest my soul
So I can rest my soul

Time to let it close
Time to hit the road
I found my peace and packed my bags
It's time to end this ride
The pain has left my mind
It's nowhere in my sight
Don't know why I keep on looking nothing's doing
Don't know why but I'm not losing

Take a moment and shut the door
So I can rest my soul
Take a moment and shut the door
So I can rest my soul
So I can rest my soul
So I can rest my soul

Time to let it close
Time to hit the road

Take a moment and shut the door
So I can rest my soul
Take a moment and shut the door
So I can rest my soul
So I can rest my soul

So I can rest my
So I can rest my soul


10. I WON'T BACK DOWN

Look who's askin' for another round
When you gonna quit?
Thought you'd owe me when you came to town,
But I've been born again

You should've killed me faster
You should've watched me die
'Cos now I'm back and I'm on the rise, yeah

If I suffer from defeat, know I'll come back stronger
But you will suffer me this time
I won't back down
Tonight I'll take what's mine
I won't back down
Revenge is what I'll find
Now I've got you where I want you
Think it's time we made our move
So you better think it through
'Cos you know I won't back down

You've been looking for a better way
You're never gonna win
And crown has fallen from the devil's mane
And that was your last sin

You should've killed me faster
You should've watched me die
'Cos now I'm back and I'm on the rise, yeah

If I suffer from defeat, know I'll come back stronger
But you will suffer me this time
I won't back down
Tonight I'll take what's mine
I won't back down
Revenge is what I'll find
Now I've got you where I want you
Think it's time we made our move
So you better think it through
'Cos you know I won't back down

You know I won't back down
I'm gonna take you out

If I suffer from defeat, know I'll come back stronger
But you will suffer me this time
I won't back down
Tonight I'll take what's mine
I won't back down
Revenge is what I'll find
Now I've got you where I want you
Think it's time we made our move
So you better think it through
'Cos you know I won't back down


11. SHINE

Don't think that you know, but I'm ready
Don't think that it shows, but I'm ready now
Ready now

Can't hide all the shots that I've taken
Can't cover the fact that I'm breakin' down
Breakin' down
Will I recover?

I know how it feels

I don't wanna waste another day
Sun will burn, the darkness fade
And I can feel you shine

You found me my heart had been twisting
You found me, but I was out getting high
Getting high

Awake from the years I was sleeping
Awake and I know that I wasted time
Wasted time
Will I recover?

I know how it feels

I don't wanna waste another day
Sun will burn, the darkness fade
And I can feel you shine

Here I come to find it out
Here I come without a doubt

I know how it feels

I don't wanna waste another day
Sun will burn, the darkness fade
And I can feel you shine


12. WE WON'T LIVE FOREVER

We’re broken down on our knees
Broken down for all to see
Broken down nowhere to go

Not a prayer
Not a hope
Not a prayer to ever know
What the sun feels like
What it is to be alive

1, 2, 3, Go!

We won’t live forever
We won’t take it anymore
And the silence will be broken
We won’t live forever
We won’t take it anymore
And the silence will be broken here once more

We’re broken down, price to pay
Broken down another day
Broken down a life on hold

Lost our minds
Torn apart
Can’t find a way to make this ours
Look into these eyes
Now it’s time we come alive

1, 2, 3, Go!

We won’t live forever
We won’t take it anymore
And the silence will be broken
We won’t live forever
We won’t take it anymore
And the silence will be broken here once more

We don’t know where we go
It’s still in our souls
Nowhere to turn to
When will we give in? Yeah!

We won’t live forever
We won’t take it anymore
And the silence will be broken
We won’t live forever
We won’t take it anymore
And the silence will be broken here once more
