EVERYTHING YOU WANT - VERTICAL HORIZON

Somewhere there's speaking it's already coming in
Oh and it's rising at the back of your mind
You never could get it unless you were fed it
Now you're here and you don't know why

But under skinned knees and the skid marks
Past the places where you used to learn
You howl and listen, listen and wait for the
Echoes of angels who won't return

He's everything you want, he's everything you need
He's everything inside of you that you wish you could be
He says all the right things at exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you and you don't know why

You're waiting for someone to put you together
You're waiting for someone to push you away
There's always another wound to discover
There's always something more you wish he'd say

He's everything you want, he's everything you need
He's everything inside of you that you wish you could be
He says all the right things at exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you and you don't know why

But you'll just sit tight and watch it unwind
It's only what you're asking for
And you'll be just fine with all of your time
It's only what you're waiting for

Out of the island into the highway
Past the places where you might have turned
You never did notice but you still hide away
The anger of angels who won't return

He's everything you want, he's everything you need
He's everything inside of you that you wish you could be
He says all the right things at exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you and you don't know why

I am everything you want, I am everything you need
I am everything inside of you that you wish you could be
I say all the right things at exactly the right time
But I mean nothing to you and I don't know why
And I don't know why, why? Why? And I don't know

EASY TONIGHT - FIVE FOR FIGHTING

You were wrong, you were right
And you are gone tonight
You were free so alive
You were wrong, you were right

And you were down, you could see
And you wore hearts for me
You were sharp, sharp as knives
You were wrong, you were right

Shot down, said you never had the chance
Took a ride on a suicide romance
Could have sworn there was somebody home
To facilitate the great unknown
Woman, I ain't going to meet you anywhere
Don't know where I'm going yet but I sure am getting there

Shotgun fire, anybody home
I got two dimes in the telephone
Alright, no it's not easy tonight
Shotgun fire, anybody home
I got two dimes in the telephone
Alright, no it's not easy tonight

And you were bound, you were free
And you wear black for me
You were dark, as dark as night
You were wrong, yeah you were right

Shot down, said you never had the chance
Took a ride on a suicide romance
Could have sworn there was somebody home
To facilitate the great unknown
Woman, I ain't going to meet you anywhere
Don't know where I'm going yet, no but I sure am getting there, yeah

Shotgun fire, anybody home
I got two dimes in the telephone
Alright, no it's not easy tonight
Shotgun fire, anybody home
I got two dimes in the telephone
Alright, no it's not easy tonight

She's in over my head
And it's not easy, it's not easy tonight
She's in over my head
And it's not easy, it's not easy tonight

Shotgun fire, anybody home
I got two dimes in the telephone
Alright, it's not easy tonight
Shotgun fire, anybody home
I got two dimes in the telephone
Alright yeah

You were free, now your not
You were free, baby

DON'T DREAM IT'S OVER - SIXPENCE NONE THE RICHER

There is freedom within, there is freedom without
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup
There's a battle ahead, many battles are lost
But you'll never see the end of the road
While you're traveling with me

Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win

Now I'm towing my car, there's a hole in the roof
My possessions are causing me suspicion but there's no proof
In the paper today, tales of war and of waste
But you turn right over to the TV page

Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win

Now I'm walking again to the beat of a drum
And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart
Only shadows ahead, barely clearing the roof
Get to know the feeling of liberation and release

Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win

Well, don't let them win
Hey now, hey now
Don't let them win
Don't let them win, yeah

ANGELS OR DEVILS - DISHWALLA

And this is the last time
That I'm ever gonna come here tonight
And this is the last time I will fall
Into a place that fails us all inside

Well I can see the pain in you
And I can see the love in you
And fighting all the demons will take time
It will take time

The angels they burn inside for us
And are we ever, are we ever gonna learn to fly
The devils they burn inside of us
But are we ever gonna come back down, come around
I'm always gonna worry about, the things that couldn't make us cold

And this is the last time
And that I'm ever gonna give in tonight
And are there angels or devils crawling here?
I just want to know what blurs and what is clear to see

Well I can see the pain in you
And I can see the love in you
And fighting all the demons will take time
It will take time

The Angels they burn inside for us
And are we ever, are we ever gonna learn to fly
The devils they burn inside of us
And are we ever gonna come back down, come around
I'm always gonna worry about the things that could break us

If I want to give in and give it up and then
I take a breath, make it deep and 'cause it might be the last one you get
Be the last one that couldn't make us cold, you couldn't make us cold
I'm always gonna worry about the things that couldn't make us cold


DEEP INSIDE OF YOU - THIRD EYE BLIND

When we met light was shed
Thoughts free flow you said you've got something
Deep inside of you
A wind chime voice sound, sway of your hips round rings true
Echo's deep inside of you
These secret garden beams changed my life so it seems
Fall breeze blows outside, i don't bring stride
My thoughts are warm, and they go deep inside of you
Oh yeah
And I never felt alone
Alright, alone...alone
Till I met you
Friends say I've changed
I don't listen cause I live to be
Deep inside of you
Slide of her dress, shouts in darkness
I'm so alive I'm
Deep inside of you
You said boy make girl feel good
But still...deep inside...STILL!
I've never felt alone
Till I met you
I'm alright on my own
Till I met you
And I'd know what to do if I just knew what's coming
I would change myself if I could
I'd walk with my own people if I could find them,
And I would say that I'm sorry to you,
I'm sorry to you, but I don't want to call you,
But then I want to call you cause I don't want to crush you,
But I feel like crushing you and it's true
I took for granted you were with me,
I breath by your looks and you look right through me
But we were broken and didn't know it
But we were broken and didn't know it
But we were broken and didn't know it
But we were broken and didn't know it
Right...oh, what's right?
Something's gone you withdraw and I'm not strong like before I was
Deep inside of you
I can go nowhere I burn candles and stare at a ghost
Deep inside of you
And some great need in me, starts to bled
I've lost my self there's nothing left, it's all gone
Deep inside of you
Deep inside of you

COME BACK TO WHAT YOU KNOW - EMBRACE

Come back to what you know
Take everything real slow
I wanna lose you but I can't let you go

Before you interfere
Let me make it loud and clear
That you got no more to prove, I'm a fool

So take it easy on yourself
There's nothing new about
Regretting how you felt

I'll never let you down
Or ever feel the way
That I've been fearing now

I'm coming back to what you know won't mean a thing
Everything that you've done keeps you from me
Now I know that I need more time
Come back and let me see you're right

I'm coming back to what you know
'Cos I know that I need it, now it's gone
Now I know that I need more time
Come back and let me see you're right

So hang on to what you've got, keep it safe
Hang on to what you've got
Keep it safe from harm
You'll find there's nothing new that we can't leave behind

Come back to what you know
Take everything real slow
I wanna lose you but I got far too high
To let go, now the demon in me knows
What I knew so long ago

I'm coming back to what you know won't mean a thing
Everything that you've done keeps you from me
Now I know that I need more time
Come back and let me see you're right

I'm coming back to what you know
'Cos I know that I need it, now it's gone
Now I know that I need more time
Come back and let me see you're right

So hang on to what you've got, keep it safe
Hang on to what you've got
Keep it safe from harm
We got time, we got time

I'm coming back to what you know won't mean a thing
Everything that you've done keeps you from me
Now I know that I need more time
Come back and let me see you're right

I'm coming back to what you know
'Cos I know that I need it, now it's gone
Now I know that I need more time
Come back and let me see you're right

Come back to what you know
Take everything real slow
I tried to lose you but I got far too close


ODE TO MY FAMILY - CRANBERRIES

Understand the things I say
Don't turn away from me
Cause I spent half my life out there
You wouldn't disagree
D'you see me, d'you see
Do you like me, do you like me standing there
D'you notice, d'you know
Do you see me, do you see me
Does anyone care

Unhappiness, where's when I was young
And we didn't give a damn
'Cause we were raised
To see life as a fun and take it if we can
My mother, my mother she hold me
Did she hold me, when I was out there
My father, my father, he liked me
Oh he liked me, does anyone care

Understand what I've become
It wasn't my design
And people everywhere think
Something better than I am
But I miss you, I miss
'Cause I liked it, I liked it
When I was out there
D'you know this, d'you know
You did not find me, you did not find
Does anyone care

Unhappiness was when I was young
And we didn't give a damn
'Cause we were raised
To see life as fun and take it if we can
My mother, my mother she hold me
Did she hold me, when I was out there
My father, my father, he liked me
Oh he liked me, does anyone care

Does anyone care
