1. YOU BETTER PRAY

I see the sweat is dripping
That's because you know just what I'm thinking
Don't look back it's me who follows
And there ain't nothing from me you can borrow

You like to hide behind lies
But we see through your disguise
It's not a threat or a curse
Just a proper verse

I'm gonna make you let go
Of what you tried to withhold
And I can promise it won't be long
Yes I can promise

Boy, you better pray
We don't seek you out, no
You better pray

You think the war is over
I've only shown you the tip of the iceberg
And you rely upon your lawyers
But at night when you sleep does it bother you?

You like to hide behind lies
But we see through your disguise
It's not a threat or a curse
Just a proper verse

I'm gonna make you let go
Of what you tried to withhold
And I can promise it won't be long
Yes I can promise

Boy, you better pray
We don't seek you out, no
You better hope
We might lose control, no

Is this good enough for you man?

Boy, you better pray
We don't seek you out, no
You better hope
We might lose control, no


2. NO SPELL

Seems I found a familiar face
In a place where there's no names
And we learn to appreciate
All the things we take vain

Hold on tight and enjoy the ride girl
This is all that we get (take a chance now)
It feels right and I know you can tell
I'm not going to lie (this is no spell)

I'm not worried and I'm not afraid
What we have should be displayed
No matter what others may say
We will always be this way

Hold on tight and enjoy the ride girl
This is all that we get (take a chance now)
It feels right and I know you can tell
I'm not going to lie (this is no spell)

When the world is gone and dead
I'll still be the one to hold our hand
When all the world is gone and dead

Hold on tight and enjoy the ride girl
This is all that we get (take a chance now)
It feels right and I know you can tell
I'm not going to lie (this is no spell)

When the world is dead and gone
I'll still be the one to hold our hand
When all the world is gone and dead


3. PEN & PAPER

This whole routine is getting old
So am I, and so are you
My reputation lets me know
I can do whatever I want to
Though it seems that you believe
You can do whatever it is you please
Know before, know before you wind up on your knees
Don't cry to me no more

You like the way that people stare at you
Now you look so fake,
just thought that you should know
And you're all the same,
and when the curtain drops down
You'll be replaced by something typical

You set yourself up to the sold
and that's ok cause that's your role
Manipulation takes its toll
What will you do when nobody wants you
Though it seems that you believe
You can do whatever it is you please
Know before, know before you wind up on your knees
Don't cry to me no more

You like the way that people stare at you
Now you look so fake,
just thought that you should know
And you're all the same,
and when the curtain drops down
You'll be replaced by something typical

I know, I've stood so long beside you
And I know, I should've left you right where I had found you
I know, I've stood so long beside you
And I know, I should've left you right where I had found you

You like the way that people stare at you
Now you look so fake,
just thought that you should know
And you're all the same,
and when the curtain drops down
You'll be replaced by something typical

You like the way that people stare at you
Now you look so fake,
just thought that you should know
And you're all the same,
and when the curtain drops down
You'll be replaced by something typical


4. REPRESENT

A kid came up to me now just the other day
And asked me if I'd thought about what I would say
If everything came crashing down on top of me
How would I stay pure?

Will you represent
Who you stand for
Will they shame you
Will they blame you

It's funny how the words of a child can be
Simple, though the thought there is so meaningful
It makes me wonder what I would say to me
Through the eyes of another

Will you represent
Who you stand for
Will they shame you
Will they blame you

There's a consequence
For the path you chose
Will they change you
Will they make you who you are not

Let the free world light the way
In these times of darkened days
Let the free world light the way

You will represent
Who you stand for
They won't shame you
They won't change you

There's a consequence
For the path you chose
They can't change you
They can't make you who you are not


5. PULL ME BACK

There's lots of crazy, crazy things
This world will offer you
And there's no way to fake
What you've been through
So just hold on to what you know is true

Pull me back again
I need you to
Hold me from my sin
Hold me back again
I need you to
Pull me from my sin
Before I give in

At times it seems
There's nowhere left to turn... It's true
I'd like to think that
We could help each other rise above
The things we're going through

Pull me back again
I need you to
Hold me from my sin
Hold me back again
I need you to
Pull me from my sin
Before I give in

Pull me back again
I need you to
Hold me from my sin
Hold me back again
I need you to
Pull me from my sin
Before I give in

Pull me back again
Before I give in
Pull me back again
Before I give in


6. STEP RIGHT UP

Please aim slow, I know
It's not like you to take the fall for anyone but yourself.
Let me show you a world that you've never seen;
Let me help you unveil what you've been missing.
There is no time to wait; when you find love you can't hesitate.

Step right up, shoot an arrow at the target;
My heart is an easy thing for you to hit.
Don't worry if you miss, I'll let you shoot again.
My heart is an easy thing for you to win.

Whoa, you know you did it again.
And ever time I hear your voice, well you know I have no choice but to let you in.
Life is short, don't pretend.
Let me show you a world that you've never seen;
Let me help you unveil what you've been missing.
There is no time to wait; when you find love you can't hesitate.

Step right up, shoot an arrow at the target;
My heart is an easy thing for you to hit.
Don't worry if you miss, I'll let you shoot again.
My heart is an easy thing for you to win.

(Please aim slow.)
(Please aim slow.)
(Please aim slow.)
Oh what could I say to you (please aim slow).
To let you know everyday I am grateful (please aim slow).
I wish I could turn back time or make it rewind (please aim slow).
I would find you when we were younger,
So we could spend our time on Earth together longer.

Step right up, shoot an arrow at the target;
My heart is an easy thing for you to hit.
Don't worry if you miss, I'll let you shoot again.
My heart is an easy thing for you to win.

Whoa, step right up again.
When you find love you can't hesitate.
Whoa, step right up again.
My heart is aching, I can barely wait.
Whoa, step right up again.
When you find love you can't hesitate.
Whoa, step right up again.
My heart is aching, I can barely wait.


7. BELIEVE

Aren't these some times?
It's gotten bad, and it's been
Pressin' on my mind
Got me feelin' sad

But I know you know
That we could do more
But we just don't

Don't worry world
I feel your pain, and it's a shame
My shoulders are hurt
And stressed from the pain

And I know you know
That you could do more
But you

And I still believe
That there is more love than hate
There's more heart than ache
And we are stuck in this great big world together

With a little bit of help from up above
And a sprinkling of love
We can break these chains
We will end these days

And I know you know
That you could do more
But you

And I still believe
That there is more love than hate
There's more heart than ache
And we are stuck in this great big world together

And I still believe
That there is a lot at stake, there's no time to wait
We can change the world if we try
We're gonna change it forever

You should join us
You, let it be you

Who will join us?
You, let it be you

And I still believe
That there is more love than hate
There's more heart than ache
And we are stuck in this great big world together

And I still believe
That there is a lot at stake
And there's no time to wait
We can change the world if we try
We're gonna change it forever

And I still believe
That there is more love than hate
There's more heart than ache
And we are stuck in this great big world together

And I still believe


8. PLEADS AND POSTCARDS

I need this, is it a good time for you?
And if it's not just know I may not be here when you need me
Sometimes I feel like I would die without you
And if it's too early don't worry when I say I'm sorry now

Hang on to this moment
It will be all over soon

'Cause I know you'll wait for me
You'll wait for me till I get home
Yes I know you'll wait for me
You'll wait for me till I get home

Is this what life is supposed to be about?
Sometimes it's hard but I will help you understand it somehow
The only thing that I want from you is trust
Together we will make it through this world, we must

Hang on to this moment
It will be all over soon

'Cause I know you'll wait for me
You'll wait for me till I get home
Yes I know you'll wait for me
You'll wait for me till I get home

But if I should fall (don't wait)
Then you should move on (don't wait)
I will always watch out for you, from up above

Now don't take this wrong (don't wait)
But you should move on (don't wait)
I will always watch out for you, from up above

This could be the last time that I speak with you
So just in case let's make the best of what we have until it's through

'Cause I know you'll wait for me
You'll wait for me till I get home
Yes I know you'll wait for me
You'll wait for me till I get home


9. LONELY ROAD

My grandpa said to me
Grandson sit down we need to talk
In life there may be times
When it gets hard to walk the walk
It's easier to take the path
That most have traveled on
But then again to do what's right
You must walk alone

And Lord, it's a lonely road
When this world burns down deep in your soul
You will find there's peace left in mind
You will find there's peace to find
Peace to find

Some people are unkind
To those who see things different
We've all felt pain in ways
It hurts to even bring it up
But that don't mean that we
Should take this motion lying down
I'll stand and fight until the day
They put me in the ground

And Lord, it's a lonely road
When this world burns down deep in your soul
You will find there's peace left in mind
You will find there's peace to find

Now I've taught you all I know
So take this seed and let it grow
Though I'm here now soon I'll be gone
Did what I can to tray and make you strong
(And I see that you're strong)

And Lord, it's a lonely road
When this world burns down deep in your soul
You will find there's peace left in mind
You will find there's peace to find
Peace to find
And Lord, it's a lonely road


10. SENIORITIS

Gather round now everyone, put your glass in the air.
Sing along now everyone; we've got a reason to cheer.
Take it in, breathe it in, we are about to begin.
Make the choice to use your voice, but don't get lost in the noise.

Skip classes, take chances, have fun,
'Cause when it's over it is done.
Skip classes, take chances, have fun.

All good things come to an end, we shouldn't have to pretend.
Everything we know could change; will you remember my name?
I hope you do, honestly, I'll keep you in my memory.
Make the choice to use your voice, but don't get lost in the noise.

Skip classes, take chances, have fun,
'Cause when it's over it is done.
Skip classes, take chances, have fun.

I have waited so long to write this song for you
And I hope you like it.
I have waited so long to write this song for you
And I hope you like it.
I have waited so long to sing this song with you
And I know that you'll like it.

Skip classes, take chances, have fun,
'Cause when it's over it is done.
Skip classes, take chances, have fun.


11. GODSPEED

It's January 1970
Do you remember me?
You put me on a boat across the sea
In the name of victory

But much to my surprise when I arrived
There was no welcoming committee
Instead there was a man for me to kill
And now I see how this is all too real

Then I saw him standing with a bayonet
And as I ran towards him he hardly broke a sweat
When I took his life he fell to his knees
And as his eyes began to fade
He whispered softly

Godspeed this letter
Away from here
I've sealed it with my tears
And stamped it with my fears
Godspeed this letter
Away from you
My work done here is through
I'm on my way to better days
And so are you

And in his pocket there
I saw a picture of his children and his family
And I began to realize
This person I despised
In actuality
Was not much different from myself
We probably could have taught each other many things
And now I know it's much too late although I couldn't hesitate
I check his gun and his chamber was empty

Then I saw him standing with a bayonet
And as I ran towards him he hardly broke a sweat
When I took his life he fell to his knees
And as his eyes began to fade
He whispered softly

Godspeed this letter
Away from here
I've sealed it with my tears
And stamped it with my fears
Godspeed this letter
Away from you
My work done here is through
I'm on my way to better days
And so are you

Oh, we know not what we've done
And oh, we know not what we've done

Godspeed this letter
Away from here
I've sealed it with my tears
And stamped it with my fears
Godspeed this letter
Away from you
My work done here is through
I'm on my way to better days
And so are you
