who will remember the days when one only takes a
shallow wade through the ocean of life? who will
remember the nights when one has forgotten to
appreciate the ground on which dreams or even
nightmares play? aye, let me have a reason to fear
death so that i may appreciate eternity... let me have
a reason to celebrate my past, so i may bring my
lessons with me to the realm of all things known...
let me have hope so i may wake up from boredom and
see the truth right in front of me...

1. The Broken One
verse:
won't listen, can't listen
to anything, from the heart
heartbroken, mistaken
was blinded, from the start
you're runnin, and stumblin
on the path, away from here
pre-chorus:
you're dyin, revealin
a path, filled with........... fear
chorus:
oh don't despair, oh broken one
love's not here, but love's not gone
time teaches us, one by one
soon you'll realize, where the pain is from
verse:
time is movin, just flowin'
leaving, your lonely art
pride's screamin, and hate'n
it's burning, the past apart
love is hurtin, hurt is searchin
cannot find, one so near
pre-chorus:
life's goin', not stopin
for a love, turned 'to....... fear
chorus:
oh don't despair, oh broken one
love's not here, but love's not gone
time teaches us, one by one
soon you'll realize, where the pain is from
bridge (instrumental):
chorus:
you need to learn, how to trust in love again
you need to remember, the joys that made the pain
many have visited, love's sadness before
whoever was there, found love was the cure!
so don't despair, oh broken one
love's not here, but love's not gone
time teaches us, one by one
soon you'll realize, where the pain is from
verse:
hhhmm, hhhmm
hhhmm, hhmmm....
ending:
awaken, and listen
to the heart, once........ again....
2. Cannonball
by Damien Rice
There’s still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
There’s still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
It’s still a little hard to say what's going onThere’s still a little bit of your ghost your witness There’s still a little bit of your face i haven't kissed
You step a little closer each day
That I can’t say what's going on
Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to lie
Life, it taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
when you float like a cannonball
There’s still a little bit of your song in my ear
There’s still a little bit of your words i long to hear
You step a little closer to me
So close that i can't see what's going on
Stones taught me to fly
Love, it taught me to lie
Life taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannon..
Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to cry
So come on courage
Teach me to be shy
'Cause it's not hard to fall
And i don't wanna scare her
It's not hard to fall
And i don't wanna lose
It's not hard to grow
When you know that you just don't know
3. Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own
by U2
Tough, you think you've got the stuff
You're telling me and anyone
You're hard enough You don't have to put up a fight
You don't have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonight
Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
We fight all the time
You and I...that's alright
We're the same soul
I don't need...I don't need to hear you say
That if we weren't so alike
You'd like me a whole lot more
Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
I know that we don't talk
I'm sick of it all
Can - you - hear - me - when - I -
Sing, you're the reason I sing
You're the reason why the opera is in me...
Where are we now?
I've got to let you know
A house still doesn't make a home
Don't leave me here alone...
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
Sometimes you can't make it
The best you can do is to fake it
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
4. My Point Of View
Been living this life
Troubled by my own lies
Stumbling in the night
Sleepwalking out of sight
Then there was you
You showed me something true
Then there was you
You taught me something new
You were patient with me
Like the shadow of a desert tree
You would listen to me
Like an echo waiting to be free
Been waiting for you
And this I didn't know
Been waiting for you
To change my...
My point of view (change my)
My point of view (change my)
My point of view (change my)
My point of view
You taught me how to love
You showed me how to love my life
You taught me what's above
All the things that I want in my life
Been waiting for you
To change my point of view
Been waiting for you
To change my...
My point of view (change my)
My point of view (change my)
My point of view (change my)
My point of view
I learned from you
How to change my point of view
I learned from you
How to change...
My point of view (change my)
My point of view (change my)
My point of view (change my)
My point of view
5. April Fools
music by Matt, sappy lyrics by Joseph
why can't you understand, how much you mean to me?
why can't you take a stand and let me walk away?
why can't i be somebody to feel the truth?
why can't i say goodbye and not waste my youth,
on you...
on you...
on you...
on you...
should i share my lonely tears?
should i be a slave to all my fears?
should i walk away and carry on?
separate and write this song
for you...
for you...
for you...
for you...
is this love that i'm feeling?
is this right what i'm doing?
is this real what i'm dreaming?
or just a weak mind thinking,
of you...
of you...
of you...
of you...
and now you got to tell me the truth in your heart
and now you got to decide where to start
and now you got to find a way to say
and now you got to choose what's next for me
and you...
and you...
and you...
and you...
6. Realistic Dreamer / Paradessa
7. More Than Words
by Extreme
Saying I love you
Is not the words I want to hear from you
It’s not that I want you
Not to say, but if you only knew
How easy it would be to show me how you feel
More than words is all you have to do to make it real
Then you wouldn’t have to say that you love me
Cos I’d already know
What would you do if my heart was torn in two
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words away
Then you couldn’t make things new
Just by saying I love you
More than words
Now I’ve tried to talk to you and make you understand
All you have to do is close your eyes
And just reach out your hands and touch me
Hold me close don’t ever let me go
More than words is all I ever needed you to show
Then you wouldn’t have to say that you love me
Cos I’d already know
What would you do if my heart was torn in two
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words away
Then you couldn’t make things new
Just by saying I love you
More than words
8. This Higher Desire
9. Cold Water
by Damien Rice
cold cold water surrounds me now
and all i've got is your hand
lord can you hear me now?
or am i lost?
love one's daughter allow me that
and I can't let go of your hand
lord, can you hear me now?
or am i lost?
don’t you know i love you
and I always have
hallelujah
will you come with me?
cold cold water surrounds me now
and all i've got is your hand
lord.. can you hear me?
or am i lost?

This Higher Desire
by joseph
this higher, desire
to know....
this higher, desire
know love...
i stumbled across the unforgiving sky
trying to find the answers of all things why
i drowned breathing down the sound of silence
humbling myself to question what's beyond my fence
this higher, desire
so go....
this higher, desire
let go....
i know forever is not on my list of things to do
glad it only took me until now to know
my memory is not perfect to remember every last detail
my regrets are mine to keep but it doesn't mean i failed
this higher, desire
go home...
back to love
Unconditional Love
by joseph
you gave me the reason to exist
and i'll give you at the very least,
another chance for another day
so Please listen to what i have to say...
these past few months had been the best,
so give your teaRs some needed rest;
as i promised, i will give up my life for you,
too bad i only have one, since that's too few
There is nO need to say you're sorry,
My heart has forgiven you already;
you gave me the reason to exist
and i'll give you at the very least
another chance for another day
so please care for what I have to say
and i will wait for you in heaven
where all your regrets will be forgiven
and i will wait with an open heart
for you would do the same for my heart
Although in death, I’ll say goodbye
Once in the sky, we’ll say hello
soon it will be my last breath
but i won't mourn my very own death...
for my heart has decided
"that LOVE multiplies when divided"*
you gave me the reason to exist
and i'll give you at the very least
another chance for another day
so please remember what i have to say
i will remember you...
i will care for you...
i will listen to you...
i will die for you...
