1. FIRE WITH FIRE

Fire with fire
Fire with fire

You had to open that door
It's never gonna be the way it was before
So what do we fight for?
Do we always have to even up that score?

I don't know where we went wrong
I don't know where we belong
Tell me why we are so lost
Will we decide which side we're on

And now it's on, we're fighting
Fire with fire
The flames are burning, burning
Higher and higher

It always has to be an
Eye for an eye
Justice remains the one
And only desire
Fighting fire with fire

You do to me like I do to you
And I do to you like you do to me
Fighting fire with fire,
Fighting fire with fire

There's a feeling deep inside
It's way to hard to ever push aside
It's all that's on your mind
I wanna give in but I can't this time

I don't know where we went wrong
I don't know where we belong
Tell me why we are so lost?
Will We decide which side we're on?

And now it's on, we're fighting
Fire with fire
The flames are burning, burning
Higher and higher

It always has to be an
Eye for an eye
Justice remains the one
And only desire
Fighting fire with fire

You do to me like I do to you
And I do to you like you do to me
Fighting fire with fire,
Fighting fire with fire

You aren't backing down, backing down
And I ain't giving into you
There's no more common ground, common ground
You broke the only golden rule

Fire with fire
Fire with fire
Fire with fire
Fire with fire

And now it's on, we're fighting
Fire with fire
The flames are burning, burning
Higher and higher

It always has to be an
Eye for an eye
Justice remains the one
And only desire
Fighting fire with fire

You do to me like I do to you
And I do to you like you do to me
Fighting fire with fire,
Fighting fire with fire

You do to me like I do to you
And I do to you like you do to me
Fighting fire with fire,
Fighting fire with fire
Fire with fire


2. INVISIBLE

You're broken down inside
But won't give up the fight
These empty eyes I see
Are staring back at me
If you pull me out
I won't let you down

Invisible
You're beautiful
Walking through this world
We call our home
Invisible
Won't let you go
Now I know I'm starting to feel you

My failure makes me hate
Am I already late
And everyday I crave
The touch of your embrace
But now I see
What you mean to me

Invisible
You're beautiful
Walking through this world
We call our home
Invisible
Won't let you go
Now I know I'm starting to feel you

Invisible
You're beautiful
I wanna take all of you
Invisible
You're beautiful
Invisible
Just like me

Invisible
You're beautiful
Walking through this world
We call our home
Invisible
Won't let you go
Now I know I'm starting to feel you

Invisible
You're beautiful
Walking through this world
We call our home
Invisible
Won't let you go
Now I know I'm starting to feel you

Invisible
You're beautiful
Invisible


3. HANGING ON BY A THREAD

My past has followed me and
I just can't get away
I'm not the same as I was
Leaving my disarray

Take me just as I am
I'm broken down
Pull me into Your arms
I'm hanging on to every word

Save me from losing myself
I'm hanging on by a thread
Can you see who I am
Underneath my scars?
I'm afraid to fall
So I'm holding on to you
No I won't let go
I'm hanging on by a thread

I still can hardly believe
The person I once was
I'm trying so hard to change
Help me work through my flaws

Take me just as I am
I'm calling out
Pull me into your arms
And I'm holding on to every breath

Save me from losing myself
I'm hanging on by a thread
Can you see who I am
Underneath my scars?
I'm afraid to fall
So I'm holding on to you
No I won't let go
I'm hanging on by a thread

I'll never need
I'll never want
With you with me
I'm so complete
I'll never run
I'll never hide
With you right here I'm safe inside

Save me from losing myself
I'm hanging on by a thread
Can you see who I am
Underneath my scars?
I'm afraid to fall
So I'm holding on to you
No I won't let go
I'm hanging on by a thread


4. BELIEVE

Sometimes I feel like I'm alone
Hoping, praying you hear me
Screaming inside to ease the pain
Save me, keep me alive

I'm not afraid anymore
Of what I don't know
Believe (I put my faith in the unknown)
Believe (I put my hope in God alone)
Have faith in what you don't know

Sometimes I feel like I have to cry
Until my emotions run dry
I'm breaking inside to hide the pain
Save me, keep me alive

I'm not afraid anymore
Of what I don't know
Believe (I put my faith in the unknown)
Believe (I put my hope in God alone)
Have faith in what you don't know

I know you're here
I can feel you now
I know your love embraces me

I put my faith in the unknown
I put my hope in God alone

Believe (I put my faith in the unknown)
Believe (I put my hope in a God alone)
Have faith in what you don't know

(I put my faith in the unknown)
Give up all your sorrow
Have faith in what you don't know
Believe (I put my hope in a God alone)
Have faith in what you don't know
You don't know


5. THERE'LL COME A DAY

I'm wide awake and
You look perfect next to me
In this photograph,
I look so deep,
Sometimes I hear you breathe
I'm here alone
Tryin' to hang onto my soul
But the distance takes it's toll
You know, you know

I'm out here doin' all I can
You make me everything I am
Give me strength to get through somehow
I keep praying that it won't be long now

There'll come a day
When I can hold you and say
It's forever
There'll come a day
When these broken lives
Fade back together
There'll come a day
When I won't feel like this
I'll find my way
There'll come a day

I've seen enough things
That I wish I could erase
I shut my eyes and take myself back
To a safer place
Where I can live the life
You left behind
But as long as you're still mine
All mine, all mine

I'm out here doin' all I can
You make me everything I am
Give me strength, I won't let you down
I keep praying that it won't be long now

There'll come a day
When I can hold you and say
It's forever
There'll come a day
When these broken lives
Fade back together
There'll come a day
When I won't feel like this
I'll find my way
There'll come a day

I've stood for all that I believe in
It's time now to start the healing
And take back the stolen time
And take back my life

There'll come a day
When I can hold you and say
It's forever
There'll come a day
When these broken lives
Fade back together
There'll come a day
When I won't feel like this
I'll find my way
There'll come a day

Oh, there'll come a day
Oh, there'll come a day
I won't lose faith
I'm wide awake and
You look perfect next to me


6. MY DISEASE

Please tell me what went wrong
Wasn't I there for you?
Shedding my tears for you
I never trusted you
You stuck your knife in me
You tried to make me bleed

You're not sorry
Still not sorry

You are my disease
You keep on killing me
I never shouda let you in my heart
I'm trying to believe
You're not the end of me
I'm better off without you

Don't think you're coming back
I put my faith in you

Wasted my time on you
Twisted words, crooked lies
Everything that you did
Led me straight to my grave

You're not sorry
Still not sorry

You are my disease
You keep on killing me
I never shouda let you in my heart
I'm trying to believe
You're not the end of me
I'm better off without you

You are my disease
You keep on killing me
I never shouda let you in my heart
I'm trying to believe
You're not the end of me
I'm better off without you
Oh, I'm better off without you


07. I'M JUST FINE

Too many times
You hurt me
You said it's love
Was I crazy?
I always knew it was wrong
Why did I fall for you?

No more looking back
I don't think I can
Keep on going through
All this with you
Trying to forget
All the things you said
I keep coming back to what you did
I'm letting go
I'm letting you know
I'm just fine without you

I'm trying to
Clear my mind
From the past
Wasted time
I finally see since you're gone
Why did I follow you?

No more looking back
I don't think I can
Keep on going through
All this with you
Trying to forget
All the things you said
I keep coming back to what you did
I'm letting go
I'm letting you know
I'm just fine without you

I'm just fine without you
I'm just fine

No more looking back
I don't think I can
Keep on going through
All this with you
Trying to forget
All the things you said
I keep coming back to what you did
I'm letting go
I'm letting you know
I'm just fine without you

I'm fine without you
I'm over you


08. BEST OF ME

If I could find yesterday
I would take You back to where I'm coming from
Cause you can see the way
All these scars have kept me running
And chasing down the past
But I'm not done, I'm turning back

I swear, you're the only reason I keep breathing
I swear, you keep on giving me the reason to keep believing

Finally I'm worth it, though I'm not perfect
It still feels right, and I keep on giving
Trying to make a difference, in my life
But I know another way to show
Everything I can be for you
You're all that I'll ever need
I'll give you the best of me

If I could read tomorrow's mind
I would know exactly where you're taking me
If I'm going to slip away
Or if I stay and give you all my trust
You will keep me safe
I know you won't let me fade

I swear, you're the only reason I keep breathing
I swear, you keep on giving me the reason to keep believing

Oh, I know I believe it
No, I will be turning around
I want to know you now
Your love won't let me down, no!

I swear, you're the only reason I keep breathing
I swear, you keep on giving me the reason to keep believing

Finally I'm worth it, though I'm not perfect
It still feels right, and I keep on giving
Trying to make a difference, in my life
But I know another way to show
Everything I can be for you
You're all that I'll ever need, woah oh!

I'll give you the best of me!
I swear, you're the only reason I keep breathing
I swear...


09. ALL I WANT

Everyday you accuse me
But I've done nothing wrong
You put me down
Like I'm the enemy
Why is it so hard for you?
Why don't you understand?
I'm not the one who's killing you

And all I want is for you to
Breathe me in again
Breathe me in again
And all I want to tell you

I still love you
And all I want is for you to
Just believe in me
Just believe in me

Why won't you
Breath me in

You take advantage of me
Cause I won't turn you down
Once you get what you want
You push me to the side
Why do you try to hurt me
It's only hurting you
I've always been right here waiting

And all I want is for you to
Breathe me in again
Breathe me in again
And all I want to tell you

I still love you
And all I want is for you to
Just believe in me
Just believe in me
Why won't you

Breathe me in
Breathe me in

And all I want is for you to
Breathe me in again
Breathe me in again
And all I want to tell you is

I still love you
And all I want is for you to
Just believe in me
Just believe in me

Why won't you
Breathe me in
Why won't you
Breathe me in
Why won't you

Breathe me in
Breathe me in


10. MOVING ON

I don't care about you
I don't care about you
Anymore

You hurt me
Lied to me
You earned my trust but then you
Bitred me, my family
You wanted all control so
You cut down everyone
Who ever stand in your way
I'm moving on

I don't care about you
I don't care about you
No, I don't care about you
Anymore
I forgive you now I'm moving on
Moving on
Moving on

Consumed by selfishness
You wanted nothing less then
To see me leave because
I ruined all your plans so
So you spread lies
Compromise, me and the family's very lives
I'm done with you

I don't care about you
I don't care about you
No, I dont care about you
Anymore
I forgive you now I'm moving on

Your left in the past
But I'm not looking back
Anymore

I don't care about you
I don't care about you
Anymore
I forgive you now I'm moving on

I don't care
I don't care about you
Moving on
I don't care
I don't care about you
Anymore
I forgive you now I'm moving on
I forgive you now I'm moving on
I don't care
I don't care about you
I don't care
I don't care about


11. MORE TO THIS

Saw a man on the street,
Would you, notice if he was gone the next day?
Another girl passes by,
Barely fifteen, with a baby on the way

In the paper today,
There was, high school shooting just like those before
When he pulled into work
They said, "pack your things, your job's gone"

Look around, (look around)
Have we lost ourselves?

I believe, there's
More to this, so much
More than this, do you?
Woah-oh, oh

I believe, there's
More than this, so much
More to this, do you?
Woah-oh, oh

She was watching the news,
There was, an attack leaving hundreds more dead
Got a call from the bank,
They are, overdrawn with more bills to pay

Look around, (look around)
Have we lost ourselves?

I believe, there's
More to this, so much
More than this, do you?
Woah-oh, oh

I believe, there's
More than this, so much
More to this, do you?
Woah-oh, oh

Do you see their pain?
Can you hear their cries?
Is it too late?
Do you see them now?
Will you help some how?
Can you feel their pain?
Do you see the tears,
In their sad eyes?
Will you help them now?
Will you just reach out?

I believe, there's
More to this, so much
More than this, do you?
Woah-oh, oh

I believe, there's
More than this, so much
More to this, do you?
Woah-oh, oh.


12. CARE TOO MUCH

I think I care too much for you
Why am I still here?

I trusted you
You threw it back at me
I fell in love
I fell down on my face
For years I wondered, what I saw in you
I'm seeking forgiveness, from those you made me lose

I'm done with you
I'm standing on my own
I think I care too much for you
Why am I still here?
You told me to go away (tell me why you're still here)
Still I decide to say
I think I care too much

You took my life and threw it all away
You broke my heart
And let me bleed to death
You took advantage of what I had to give
I'm taking it black now, and leaving you behind

I'm done with you
I'm standing on my own
I think I care too much for you
Why am I still here?
You told me to go away (tell me why you're still here)
Still I decide to say
I think I care too much

Why am I still here?
You told me to go away (tell me why you're still here)
Still I decide to say
I think I care too much


13. WOUNDED

Take back!

I see the tear stains on your eyes
I know your hiding away from life
Every day it's the same
You can't break away
It's holding you so tight
I see the pain you've held inside
And you're believing all the lies
It's destroying you inside

Take back your life
Don't give it up
Take back your dreams
Don't waste them
Take back your faith
You'll find it there
Take back your right to live alive

I see you fade away from me
I know you're struggling just to breathe
You're so wounded turn around
It's time to come alive
Think of memories long ago
Think of the life we used to know
I'd give up everything to bring you back

Take back your life
Don't give it up
Take back your dreams
Don't waste them
Take back your faith
You'll find it there
Take back your right to live alive

Take back!
Take back!

Take back your life
Don't give it up
Take back your dreams
Don't waste them
Take back your faith
You'll find it there
Take back your right to live alive

Take back!
