Just A Little Lift

Just a little lift, just a little hope
That's all I got tonight
Just a little gift, keeping me afloat
Holy promises take time
And I'm always, always first in line
Even when the world is running circles around me
'Cause I'm always, always stuck to time
And just maybe time and loss will take good care of me
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Metamorphosis

I thought I was stuck in my cocoon, babe
From the world I felt removed, babe
I tried to grab the setting sun and pull it over my head
My mind was always on the run, my body tossing in my bed
Oooooh oooooh oooooh oooooh oooooh oooooh
It's ok, babe
It's ok, babe
To stay in your shell
I was alone so I could find myself
Away from distractions, nobody to ask for help
Alone in the dark where I felt so weak
Is where I became what I was meant to be
These colors in my soul were born in the dark
These colors in my soul were born in the dark
These colors in my soul were born in the dark
These colors in my soul were born in the dark
These colors in my soul you gave to me

Don't let them bring you down
You've been through too much
You're not happy where you've been
But you're happy where you are
You never lost sight of your dreams
Though you couldn't see them yet
You never gave up
Though your past was pulling you under
Are you gonna be in my life or only in my dreams
To carry my heart away?
I want to give fate a chance
Don't want to stand in my own way
Of loving you forever
So, who are they to stop love?
Who are they to stop love?
Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh
You're the sum of my best moments
You're what my heart wants me to be
Teach me all your secrets
Let your love fall on me
Are you gonna be in my life or only in my dreams
To carry my heart away?
I want to give fate a chance
Don't want to stand in my own way
Of loving you forever
So, who are they to stop love?
Who are they to stop love?
Who are they to stop love?
Who are they to stop love?
Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh
Don't let them bring you down
You've been through too much
You're not happy where you've been
But you're happy where you are

Forgiveness

I gave you gifts, so what do you owe me?
I always knew that no gift was free
There ain't no other way but forgiveness
When "I love you" means "Don't let go of me"
I was standing where only you could see me
I was pretending I didn't see you there
Wanted to love you but I couldn't give it
So you waited for me to take your hand
Oh yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Forgiveness, Forgiveness, Forgiveness
Forgiveness, Forgiveness, Forgiveness
You tried to stay up 'til you could hear my footsteps
I came in your room while you were sound asleep
There ain't no other way but compassion
When loving you was too much for me
You were waiting within shouting distance
You looked at everybody else for what you couldn't have
I was pretending it didn't make no difference
I didn't know what I could do to give you your man
Oh yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Forgiveness, Forgiveness, Forgiveness
Forgiveness, Forgiveness, Forgiveness
Forgive, hey, hey
Forgive, hey, yeah
Forgive, hey, hey
Forgive, hey, yeah

Worthy

Open the door to your life, you can be free
Please stop talking to me, please stop talking to me
Please don't give your soul away
You were born for something worthy
That no one else can do, no one else can do
You are the only one who carries what you carry
But you are the only one who can give what you give, so
You better pack your bags for the greatest of adventures
Discovering yourself is a new world
Walk through the door in your heart
You were born for something greater
But don't take it from me, don't take it from me
Please don't leave your soul behind
Don't you know your soul is aching?
It's got nowhere else to go, and it's so valuable, you know?
You are the only one who carries what you carry
And you are the only one who can give what you give, so
You better pack your bags for the greatest of adventures
Discovering yourself is a new world
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Please don't give your soul away
You were born for something worthy
That no one else can do

Another Life

Catch a star with your right hand
Hold your heart with your left
Dream your dreams while you still can
Don't be afraid of the past
I can see you now, you're not hiding any more
Stake your claim so loud that no one can ignore
You taught yourself to dream of love
A lonely child in a lonely house, what were you supposed to do?
You don't know what it means to love
Frankly, I don't know how to help, what could anyone do for you?
Somewhere in the night, in the deep, dark, night
Something's gonna call you from deep inside, yeah
Nothing can prepare you for a transformation's pain
You gotta keep on movin'
You just gotta keep on movin'
You gotta keep believin'...in another life
If you wanna be the first one you gotta be the last one
If you wanna be the first one, yeah, yeah, yeah (another life)
If you wanna be the first one you gotta be the last one
If you wanna be the first one, yeah, yeah, yeah (another life)
If you wanna be the first one you gotta be the last one
If you wanna be the first one, yeah, yeah, yeah (another life)
If you wanna be the first one you gotta be the last one
If you wanna be the first one, yeah, yeah, yeah (another life)
If you wanna be the first one, you gotta be the last one, yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah (another life)
If you wanna be the first one, you gotta be the last one, yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah (another life)
If you wanna be the first one, you gotta be the last one, yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah (another life)
If you wanna be the first one, you gotta be the last one, yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah (another life)
