01 Mirror in the Sky
06:15
|
|||
Drowning under all of life's crosswaves,
suffocating in the whirling wind.
Never knowing which way I need to go,
stumbling, scrambling on rocks below.
Then like magic I saw a light -
one to guide me on my mystic flight.
"You can make it," I heard from above,
"You will soar if you just show your love"
Oh Mirror in the Sky show me how to fly!
Oh Mirror in the Sky I want to die!
Traveling through the ranges of life,
rain and shine of the memories in stride.
"Can you take a second to understand?
Hills and valleys of a distant land!
I'm sure you're wondering what happens next -
it's your story and it's all the best.
You can say it's like Amazing Grace,
look in the mirror and you'll see your face again!"
Oh Mirror in the Sky show me how to fly!
Oh Mirror in the Sky I want to die!

02 Brighter Days

So you've lost everything... so what? You're still breathing! And I want to tell you how good it is to be alive and well.
There are people like you who can't go outside - they fear that life will just pass them by, but if you take a step in the pouring rain you'll begin to see that you can share your pain and maybe you can change someone's life and help them see there will be brighter days!
So you think you're alone... you're not! There is always someone who knows what it's like to say "How good it is to be alive and well!"
There are people like you who can't go outside - they fear that life will just pass them by, but if you take a step in the pouring rain you'll begin to see that you can share your pain and maybe you can change someone's life and help them see there will be brighter days!

03 Face the Rain
03:57
|
|||
I don't mind if you want to go out with me.
And I don't mind if you think we aren't meant to be.
But I got time - those words you said runnin' through my head.
Tossing turning, fear of nothing ever happenin'
But I don't mind if I have to face the rain!
Every day and every night nothin's happenin'
Waiting for another chance for you to come my way
I got that call the other day, oh what joy I had!
It was you on the line - gave me peace of mind!
But I don't mind if I have to face the rain!
Years gone by since that day you asked me to stay
It's been nice all that time being by your side
But just today I got a call sayin you were gone...
Well my dear, it's been sweet all the love we've shared.
But I don't mind if I have to face the rain!

04 You Already Know
03:21
|
|||
I know I have been afraid of loving you the way I should
But you must know I have my burdens and I'm trying my best
I know you have been hurt too - come let me soothe your wounds
But you must know I have my burdens and I'm trying my best
I won't say it 'cause you want me to,
I won't say "I love you" if it's not true.
Understand that I already know and you already know
You saved me
I know I can be a fool - sometimes say things I don't mean to
But you must know that I have my burdens and I'm trying my best
I know you can argue too - you're like me and it's plain to see
That I must know you have your burdens and you're trying your best
I won't say it 'cause you want me to,
I won't say "I love you" if it's not true,
Understand that I already know and you already know
You saved me

05 Sacrifice
03:42
|

I have been told I am pompous
I have been told I am cold
I have been told I am selfish
But all with the best of intentions
I have been told I am forceful and tough
I have been told I am powerful and rough
I have been told I am extremely resilient
But all with the best of intentions
But I'm not your idol, I'm not your leader, I'm not your saving grace
I'm not your burden, I'm not your weakness, I'm not your enemy.
I'm not your Jesus, I'm not your Allah, I'm not your Lord on High,
I'm not your brother, I'm not your keeper, I'm not your sacrifice.
I have been told I am modest and honest,
I have been told I am humble and true,
I have been told I am extremely compassionate
But all with the best of intentions
I have been told I am loving and joyful
I have been told I am peaceful and patient
I have been told I am kind, good, and faithful
But all with the best of intentions
But I'm not your idol, I'm not your leader, I'm not your saving grace
I'm not your burden, I'm not your weakness, I'm not your enemy
I'm not your Jesus, I'm not your Allah, I'm not your Lord on High
I'm not your brother, I'm not your keeper, I'm not your sacrifice

06 Golden Throne

|

People don't know I am all alone,
And it feels like home on my Golden Throne.
All of the pain that I feel inside just rips me up like a stabbing knife, but ya know I can't stand living my life this way.
One flew over the cuckoo's nest but I shot it down 'cause I'm the best, but ya know I can't stand living my life this way
Looking out the window I can see the light of my mind...
People don't know I am all alone,
And it feels like home on my Golden Throne.
All of the pain that I feel inside just rips me up like a stabbing knife, but ya know I can't stand living my life this way.
One flew over the cuckoo's nest but I shot it down 'cause I'm the best, but ya know I can't stand living my life this way
Looking out the window I can see the light of my mind...
People don't know I am all alone,
And it feels like home on my Golden Throne.
Maybe I'm crazy but it doesn't matter 'cause my friends are by my side!
Maybe yeah, I'm crazy but it doesn't matter 'cause my friends are by my side!
Looking out the window I can see the light of my mind...
People don't know I am NOT alone,
And it feels like home on my Golden Throne.

09 Who Am I?
03:27
|
|||
Here I am, trying to pave my own path, living a life that came to pass because the road I was on washed away.
Here I am, picking up pieces along the way, lying them down so that I can step once more to a life gone before.
...for my former life was just misery singing:
Who am I?
I don't really know... and don't really care at all...
Here I am, hoping someone will come my way - join me on my quest to find me, or just to try and guide me
Here I am, wondering if I am all alone - or maybe I'm not the only one who had a life taken from them.
...for my former life was just misery singing:
Who am I?
I don't really know... and don't really care at all...
Take it from me! For my former life was just misery singing:
Who am I?
I don't really know... and don't really care at all...

Come on over baby
Got that look in your eyes
Come on over sweetie
No need to be so shy
Oh baby we can dance til the sun don't shine
Oh baby we can dance all night
I'll be yours and you'll be mine and we will dance all night
I'll be yours and you'll be mine and we will dance all night long
I feel your body
Brushin up on mine
Movin so smoothly
Makes me feel alright
Oh baby we can dance til the sun don't shine
Oh baby we can dance all night
I'll be yours and you'll be mine and we will dance all night
I'll be yours and you'll be mine and we will dance all night long
Come on feed my fire
I'm burnin with desire
Got me like a flame
I'll make your heart melt away
Oh baby we can dance til the sun don't shine
Oh baby we can dance all night
I'll be yours and you'll be mine and we will dance all night
I'll be yours and you'll be mine and we will dance all night long

Sittin by the fire like we always do and it feels so good to be with you but I know that summer's gunna end and I shouldn't pretend, no, that's not real fair but still I sit here making it last - making memories a good past as we're sippin on our whiskey, I just want you to know that we will always be
Children of the Night
I will never say goodbye
I was just a young man
I had no where to go
Bought a pack of cigarettes
I thought I'd take it slow
That's when my life changed
Saw the amber burnin slow
I'm giving it all I can
I can feel it in my soul
Children of the Night
I will never say goodbye
Never say goodbye
Never make you cry
Never say goodbye
Stay with me tonight
Children of the Night
