Heartbeat lyrics - David Cook
I have seen the sun disappear before my eyes
Just above the highest tide, the falling to the ocean line.
And all, I see is smoke, enough to make me choke,
the world feels broken down.
Counting the lines,
the years are screaming louder now
And all the trees start falling down
The brightest lights are burning out
So I, will run through fire
to reach the other side, and turn this life around
And when the moment's dead and gone
With every star I'm wishing on
With every right and every wrong
The lonely nights that take us on
For all the stones I've ever thrown
Another break against the bone
Close my eyes I'm not alone
Let the heartbeat take me home
If there is love, rain it down on everyone
We could break away and run
Like we did when we were young
And we, could make believe
This is all we need
To live for only here and now
So when the moment's dead and gone
With every star we're wishing on
With every right and every wrong
The endless night we sang alone
for all the stone we've ever thrown
we can save this broken bones
close our eyes, we're not alone
Let the heartbeat takes us home
Let the heartbeat takes us home
Just above the highest tide, the falling to the ocean line.
And all, I see is smoke, enough to make me choke,
the world feels broken down.
Counting the lines,
the years are screaming louder now
And all the trees start falling down
The brightest lights are burning out
So I, will run through fire
to reach the other side, and turn this life around
And when the moment's dead and gone
With every star I'm wishing on
With every right and every wrong
The lonely nights that take us on
For all the stones I've ever thrown
Another break against the bone
Close my eyes I'm not alone
Let the heartbeat take me home
If there is love, rain it down on everyone
We could break away and run
Like we did when we were young
And we, could make believe
This is all we need
To live for only here and now
So when the moment's dead and gone
With every star we're wishing on
With every right and every wrong
The endless night we sang alone
for all the stone we've ever thrown
we can save this broken bones
close our eyes, we're not alone
Let the heartbeat takes us home
Let the heartbeat takes us home
Criminals lyrics - David Cook
This is a state of emergency
Held down for an eternity, victims
Tell me, are you list’ning
Lets break out of this prison cell
Create stories the world will tell their children
In time, we’ll be forgiven
But tonight, you & I
We can make our escape
From the choices we made
So let’s run, for our lives
Just like we’re animals
Cause, baby, we’re criminals
Spotlights, tracing our every move
Hearts race, breathless and bulletproof, I’ll hold you
Won’t let anybody hurt you
This fight, fell at our footsteps
And I swear, the further that we get, the closer we are
To finding love in these scars
Cause tonight, you & I
We can make our escape
From the choices we made
So let’s run, for our lives
Just like we’re animals
Cause, baby, we’re criminals
Yeah, we’re all against the wall
Looking for a way around
On the run like criminals
Breaking out
But tonight, you & I
We can make our escape
From the choices we made
So let’s run, for our lives
Just like we’re animals
Cause tonight, you & I
We can make our escape
From the choices we made
So let’s run, for our lives
Just like we’re animals
Cause, baby, we’re criminals...
Held down for an eternity, victims
Tell me, are you list’ning
Lets break out of this prison cell
Create stories the world will tell their children
In time, we’ll be forgiven
But tonight, you & I
We can make our escape
From the choices we made
So let’s run, for our lives
Just like we’re animals
Cause, baby, we’re criminals
Spotlights, tracing our every move
Hearts race, breathless and bulletproof, I’ll hold you
Won’t let anybody hurt you
This fight, fell at our footsteps
And I swear, the further that we get, the closer we are
To finding love in these scars
Cause tonight, you & I
We can make our escape
From the choices we made
So let’s run, for our lives
Just like we’re animals
Cause, baby, we’re criminals
Yeah, we’re all against the wall
Looking for a way around
On the run like criminals
Breaking out
But tonight, you & I
We can make our escape
From the choices we made
So let’s run, for our lives
Just like we’re animals
Cause tonight, you & I
We can make our escape
From the choices we made
So let’s run, for our lives
Just like we’re animals
Cause, baby, we’re criminals...
Broken Windows lyrics - David Cook
These two hearts
Are like a house along the fault line
Cut our feet on nails and glass
Walking the slow grind
We locked up our love and we threw away the keys
It's hard to see you through these
Broken windows
Looking so close
Shattered pieces
I can't see through these
Broken windows
We could let go
But I won't give up
If you won't give up
Crumblin' walls and empty holes inside of your eyes
These picture frames that tear away from saying goodbye
But still there's glimpses of the way we used to be
I'm tryin' to see you through these
Broken windows
Looking so close
Shattered pieces
I can't see through these
Broken windows
We could let go
But I won't give up
If you won't give up
We built this place out of blood and bricks
We can still stand up when the world is shaking
Tell me there's a way we can somehow fix these
Broken windows
Broken windows
Looking so close
Shattered pieces
I can't see through these
Broken windows
We could let go
But I won't give up
If you won't give up
Broken windows
Looking so close
Shattered pieces
I can't see through these
Broken windows
We could let go
But I won't give up
If you won't give up
Are like a house along the fault line
Cut our feet on nails and glass
Walking the slow grind
We locked up our love and we threw away the keys
It's hard to see you through these
Broken windows
Looking so close
Shattered pieces
I can't see through these
Broken windows
We could let go
But I won't give up
If you won't give up
Crumblin' walls and empty holes inside of your eyes
These picture frames that tear away from saying goodbye
But still there's glimpses of the way we used to be
I'm tryin' to see you through these
Broken windows
Looking so close
Shattered pieces
I can't see through these
Broken windows
We could let go
But I won't give up
If you won't give up
We built this place out of blood and bricks
We can still stand up when the world is shaking
Tell me there's a way we can somehow fix these
Broken windows
Broken windows
Looking so close
Shattered pieces
I can't see through these
Broken windows
We could let go
But I won't give up
If you won't give up
Broken windows
Looking so close
Shattered pieces
I can't see through these
Broken windows
We could let go
But I won't give up
If you won't give up
Laying Me Low lyrics - David Cook
I remember when you lit my flame
A bit of pleasure with a pinch of pain
You left me praying for a single drop of rain, oh
But now the fire's burning out of control
Because I'm never gonna let you go
So bring the gasoline and we can start the show, oh
You got under my skin and I can't begin
To think of all the trouble you keep getting me in
So I'll just hold on and try to be strong
But I fall apart when I'm with you
I cry when I kiss you
I know you're really no good
You got my heart in your hand
No, I'll never understand and it shows
You get me high but you're laying me low
Oh whoa oh oh
Oh whoa oh oh
Oh whoa oh oh
Well I remember every broken line
I'm just the victim of the perfect crime
You keep running while I keep on doing time, oh
So give me something just to keep me sane
I only wanna hear you say my name
Now I know I'm never gonna win this game
But I play anyway
You got under my skin and I can't begin
To think of all the trouble you keep getting me in
So I'll just hold on and try to be strong
But I fall apart when I'm with you
I cry when I kiss you
I know you're really no good
You got my heart in your hand
No, I'll never understand and it shows
You get me high but you're laying me low
Oh whoa oh oh
Oh whoa oh oh
Oh whoa oh oh
And I fall apart when I'm with you
I cry when I kiss you
I know you're really no good
You got my heart in your hand
No, I'll never understand and it shows
You get me high but you're laying me low
Oh oh whoa oh oh
Oh oh whoa oh oh
Oh oh whoa oh oh
(Laying me low)
Oh oh whoa oh oh
Oh oh whoa oh oh
You get me high but you're laying me low
A bit of pleasure with a pinch of pain
You left me praying for a single drop of rain, oh
But now the fire's burning out of control
Because I'm never gonna let you go
So bring the gasoline and we can start the show, oh
You got under my skin and I can't begin
To think of all the trouble you keep getting me in
So I'll just hold on and try to be strong
But I fall apart when I'm with you
I cry when I kiss you
I know you're really no good
You got my heart in your hand
No, I'll never understand and it shows
You get me high but you're laying me low
Oh whoa oh oh
Oh whoa oh oh
Oh whoa oh oh
Well I remember every broken line
I'm just the victim of the perfect crime
You keep running while I keep on doing time, oh
So give me something just to keep me sane
I only wanna hear you say my name
Now I know I'm never gonna win this game
But I play anyway
You got under my skin and I can't begin
To think of all the trouble you keep getting me in
So I'll just hold on and try to be strong
But I fall apart when I'm with you
I cry when I kiss you
I know you're really no good
You got my heart in your hand
No, I'll never understand and it shows
You get me high but you're laying me low
Oh whoa oh oh
Oh whoa oh oh
Oh whoa oh oh
And I fall apart when I'm with you
I cry when I kiss you
I know you're really no good
You got my heart in your hand
No, I'll never understand and it shows
You get me high but you're laying me low
Oh oh whoa oh oh
Oh oh whoa oh oh
Oh oh whoa oh oh
(Laying me low)
Oh oh whoa oh oh
Oh oh whoa oh oh
You get me high but you're laying me low
Better Than Me lyrics - David Cook
You ain't even scared
Cause you know I know you will conquer it
Yeah you're finally getting there
I wish I had it all cause I'd offer it
And it feels like a last stop
And it feels like an open wound
Whatever it is that you did to me
It didn't have to be so soon
Go on, go on
Go be better than me
Go on, go on
Go be better than me
Go be better than me
Go on
Go on
Look beneath your feet
The road rolls out in front of you
And your soul to keep
In the arms of Madison Avenue
And it hits like a running train
and it hurts like being alive
If you really gave up
Then why'd you tell me
I've become the shadow
You the light
Go on, go on
Go be better than me
Go on, go be better than me
Go on, go on
Go be better than me
Go be better than me
Go bet better, go be better
Go on
Go on
All the hot lights and the famous streets
It's just the first step in forgetting me
Go on, go on
Go be better than me
Go on, go be better than me
Go on, go on
Go be better than me
Go be better than me
Go be better, go be better
Go on
Go on
Cause you know I know you will conquer it
Yeah you're finally getting there
I wish I had it all cause I'd offer it
And it feels like a last stop
And it feels like an open wound
Whatever it is that you did to me
It didn't have to be so soon
Go on, go on
Go be better than me
Go on, go on
Go be better than me
Go be better than me
Go on
Go on
Look beneath your feet
The road rolls out in front of you
And your soul to keep
In the arms of Madison Avenue
And it hits like a running train
and it hurts like being alive
If you really gave up
Then why'd you tell me
I've become the shadow
You the light
Go on, go on
Go be better than me
Go on, go be better than me
Go on, go on
Go be better than me
Go be better than me
Go bet better, go be better
Go on
Go on
All the hot lights and the famous streets
It's just the first step in forgetting me
Go on, go on
Go be better than me
Go on, go be better than me
Go on, go on
Go be better than me
Go be better than me
Go be better, go be better
Go on
Go on
Carry You lyrics - David Cook
This lightning’s gonna strike
Right through this heart of mine again, again
’Cause this rain ain’t gonna stop
And we’re feeling every drop
As they keep on dancing on our heads
But you gotta hold on
You gotta be strong
Right here with me if it all goes wrong
To keep you from harm
Away in my arms
Steer you away from the storm
When the sun won’t come around
And your world keeps washing out
I won’t let this love fall down
I’ll carry you, I’ll carry you
So let’s run toward waiting lights
’cause I know there’s better skies ahead, ahead
Sand through an hourglass
This flood is gonna pass
And we’ll still be standing, hand in hand
Oh you gotta hold on
You gotta be strong
Right here with me if it all goes wrong
To keep you from harm
Away in my arms
Steer you away from the storm
When the sun won’t come around
And your world keeps washing out
I won’t let this love fall down
I’ll carry you, I’ll carry you
When the sun won’t come around
And your world keeps washing out
I won’t let this love fall down
I’ll carry you, I’ll carry you
When the sun won’t come around
And your world keeps washing out
I won’t let this love fall down
I’ll carry you, I’ll carry you
Right through this heart of mine again, again
’Cause this rain ain’t gonna stop
And we’re feeling every drop
As they keep on dancing on our heads
But you gotta hold on
You gotta be strong
Right here with me if it all goes wrong
To keep you from harm
Away in my arms
Steer you away from the storm
When the sun won’t come around
And your world keeps washing out
I won’t let this love fall down
I’ll carry you, I’ll carry you
So let’s run toward waiting lights
’cause I know there’s better skies ahead, ahead
Sand through an hourglass
This flood is gonna pass
And we’ll still be standing, hand in hand
Oh you gotta hold on
You gotta be strong
Right here with me if it all goes wrong
To keep you from harm
Away in my arms
Steer you away from the storm
When the sun won’t come around
And your world keeps washing out
I won’t let this love fall down
I’ll carry you, I’ll carry you
When the sun won’t come around
And your world keeps washing out
I won’t let this love fall down
I’ll carry you, I’ll carry you
When the sun won’t come around
And your world keeps washing out
I won’t let this love fall down
I’ll carry you, I’ll carry you
From Here To Zero lyrics - David Cook
Here we are at the starting line
Of a race that goes till the end of time
You and I
Take a long deep breath and I'll take one to
As the seconds fade and the minutes move
I'm by your side
Life's a count down that never ends
And the world we know keeps on caving in
We can hold on, I will hold on
[Chorus]
Till the clocks run, till the sun breaks down
I'll be all the love you need
Till the stars turn cold, I'll never let you go
From here to zero
A love we saved for a second look
Like a flower pressed in your favorite book
By the windowsill
We got lost in a passing glance
As the winter frost melting in our hands
And time stood still
Life's a countdown that never stops
Will it all fall down as we count the cost
We can hold on, I will hold on
[Repeat Chorus]
And every point in between
From curtain up to closing scene
(The spot light we've been living in)
I'll never go, I'll never leave
Look in your heart and please believe
[Repeat Chorus]
Till the clocks run out, till the sun breaks down
I'll be all the love you need
Till the stars turn cold, I'll never let you go
From here to zero
Of a race that goes till the end of time
You and I
Take a long deep breath and I'll take one to
As the seconds fade and the minutes move
I'm by your side
Life's a count down that never ends
And the world we know keeps on caving in
We can hold on, I will hold on
[Chorus]
Till the clocks run, till the sun breaks down
I'll be all the love you need
Till the stars turn cold, I'll never let you go
From here to zero
A love we saved for a second look
Like a flower pressed in your favorite book
By the windowsill
We got lost in a passing glance
As the winter frost melting in our hands
And time stood still
Life's a countdown that never stops
Will it all fall down as we count the cost
We can hold on, I will hold on
[Repeat Chorus]
And every point in between
From curtain up to closing scene
(The spot light we've been living in)
I'll never go, I'll never leave
Look in your heart and please believe
[Repeat Chorus]
Till the clocks run out, till the sun breaks down
I'll be all the love you need
Till the stars turn cold, I'll never let you go
From here to zero
Kiss & Tell lyrics - David Cook
I, I’m never really awake
You take it all away until my will begins to break
You, you’ve got me in your sights
You’re doing something right ’cause all I see is blue tonight
Yeah, we’re lost in the dark and we’re praying for light
Reaching out for a heart where the beat never dies
Yeah we’re crossing the line between heaven and hell
I’ll never kiss and tell
Now we’re facing the flood and it’s rising fast
We keep holding our breath ’til we both collapse
Lying still in the place right where our bodies fell
But I’ll never kiss and tell
I, I feel my pulse increase
Do anything you please as long as I can hear you breathe
We, we’re losing all control
I thought we had it all but now your lips are turning cold
You take it all away until my will begins to break
You, you’ve got me in your sights
You’re doing something right ’cause all I see is blue tonight
Yeah, we’re lost in the dark and we’re praying for light
Reaching out for a heart where the beat never dies
Yeah we’re crossing the line between heaven and hell
I’ll never kiss and tell
Now we’re facing the flood and it’s rising fast
We keep holding our breath ’til we both collapse
Lying still in the place right where our bodies fell
But I’ll never kiss and tell
I, I feel my pulse increase
Do anything you please as long as I can hear you breathe
We, we’re losing all control
I thought we had it all but now your lips are turning cold
Wait For Me lyrics - David Cook
I’m as drunk as the morning sun
A ball of fire and I’ve just begun
To drink you in
Another picture in a broken frame
And I remember I’m the one to blame
Where do I begin?
‘Cause I’ve been crying salt into an open wound
Since I don’t remember when
So as I slowly open up my eyes
Oh, I can see you on the other side
The other side
[Chorus:]
No matter where you go
Yeah, will you let me know?
Will you wait for me?
Wait for me
More than I ever knew
Yeah, all I need is you
Will you wait for me?
Wait for me
Falling faster by the afternoon
Connecting dots around the black and blue
It’s sinking in
And I can smell you on my pillowcase
But I may never get to see your face
Here again, no
So I’ll keep crying salt into this open wound
Until I feel again
And if I ever open up my eyes
Will I see you on the other side?
The other side
[Chorus]
So I’ll keep dying slowly from this open wound
Until you come home again
[Chorus 2x]
I’m as drunk as the morning sun
A ball of fire and I’ve just begun
To drink you in
A ball of fire and I’ve just begun
To drink you in
Another picture in a broken frame
And I remember I’m the one to blame
Where do I begin?
‘Cause I’ve been crying salt into an open wound
Since I don’t remember when
So as I slowly open up my eyes
Oh, I can see you on the other side
The other side
[Chorus:]
No matter where you go
Yeah, will you let me know?
Will you wait for me?
Wait for me
More than I ever knew
Yeah, all I need is you
Will you wait for me?
Wait for me
Falling faster by the afternoon
Connecting dots around the black and blue
It’s sinking in
And I can smell you on my pillowcase
But I may never get to see your face
Here again, no
So I’ll keep crying salt into this open wound
Until I feel again
And if I ever open up my eyes
Will I see you on the other side?
The other side
[Chorus]
So I’ll keep dying slowly from this open wound
Until you come home again
[Chorus 2x]
I’m as drunk as the morning sun
A ball of fire and I’ve just begun
To drink you in
I'm Gonna Love You lyrics - David Cook
Something still comes over me
Just a chill on a winter breeze
Standing in the cold debris
Left behind a memory
Every word that left your lips
Left behind your fingerprints
Every crime that love commits
Brings you right back here to this
I only want to be remembered
Being the one who always stayed
I’m gonna love you
I’m gonna love you endlessly
I’ll never be wanting you surrender
As long as you’re standing next to me
Coz I’m gonna love you
I’m gonna love you endlessly
No escaping this embrace
Everytime I see your face
Around the love I can’t erase
Wouldn’t want to anyway
I only want to be remembered
Being the one who always stayed
I’m gonna love you
I’m gonna love you endlessly
I’ll never be wanting you surrender
As long as you’re standing next to me
Coz I’m gonna love you
I’m gonna love you endlessly
Ooooh
I only want to be remembered
Being the one who always stayed
I’m gonna love you
I’m gonna love you endlessly
I’ll never be wanting you surrender
As long as you’re standing next to me
Coz I’m gonna love you
I’m gonna love you endlessly
Just a chill on a winter breeze
Standing in the cold debris
Left behind a memory
Every word that left your lips
Left behind your fingerprints
Every crime that love commits
Brings you right back here to this
I only want to be remembered
Being the one who always stayed
I’m gonna love you
I’m gonna love you endlessly
I’ll never be wanting you surrender
As long as you’re standing next to me
Coz I’m gonna love you
I’m gonna love you endlessly
No escaping this embrace
Everytime I see your face
Around the love I can’t erase
Wouldn’t want to anyway
I only want to be remembered
Being the one who always stayed
I’m gonna love you
I’m gonna love you endlessly
I’ll never be wanting you surrender
As long as you’re standing next to me
Coz I’m gonna love you
I’m gonna love you endlessly
Ooooh
I only want to be remembered
Being the one who always stayed
I’m gonna love you
I’m gonna love you endlessly
I’ll never be wanting you surrender
As long as you’re standing next to me
Coz I’m gonna love you
I’m gonna love you endlessly
Wicked Game lyrics - David Cook
The world was on fire and no one could save me but you
It's strange what desire would make foolish people do
I've never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you
And I've never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you
No, I don't wanna fall in love
No, I don't wanna fall in love
With you
What a wicked game you played
to make me feel this way
What a wicked thing to do
to let me dream of you
What a wicked thing to say
you never felt this way
What a wicked thing to do
to make me dream of you
And I wanna fall in love
(this girl is only gonna break your heart)
No, I wanna fall in love
(this girl is only gonna break your heart)
With you
No, I...
(this girl is only gonna break your heart)
The world was on fire
and no one could save me but you
It's strange what desire would make
foolish people do
It's strange what desire would make foolish people do
I've never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you
And I've never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you
No, I don't wanna fall in love
No, I don't wanna fall in love
With you
What a wicked game you played
to make me feel this way
What a wicked thing to do
to let me dream of you
What a wicked thing to say
you never felt this way
What a wicked thing to do
to make me dream of you
And I wanna fall in love
(this girl is only gonna break your heart)
No, I wanna fall in love
(this girl is only gonna break your heart)
With you
No, I...
(this girl is only gonna break your heart)
The world was on fire
and no one could save me but you
It's strange what desire would make
foolish people do
Home Movies (Over Your Shoulder) lyrics - David Cook
Chasing ghosts in a hotel parking lot
'Round and 'round till the stars go out.
Never knowing that the best we'd ever get
Was in the here and now.
Just another old home movie
With no sound but it's deafening.
Chasing ghosts in a hotel parking lot
Till the frame burns out.
Looking over your shoulder
You never get any older
Every memory's come and gone
I can't believe it's been so long.
If I could cover the distance
Would it make any difference
With all the sorrow and the joy
Frozen in the celluloid?
Looking over your shoulder
(oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh)
(oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Looking over your shoulder
Thoughts blur every time I look away
Is it you or the alcohol?
Hanging on like a death row innocent
Waiting for the call.
I don't know what I'm looking for
A light shining through an open door?
But it's enough just to have you here again
Living on the wall.
Looking over your shoulder
You never get any older
Every memory's come and gone
I can't believe it's been so long
If I could cover the distance
Would it make any difference
With all the sorrow and the joy
frozen in the celluloid?
Looking over your shoulder
(oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh)
(oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Looking over your shoulder
(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)
'Round and 'round till the stars go out.
Never knowing that the best we'd ever get
Was in the here and now.
Just another old home movie
With no sound but it's deafening.
Chasing ghosts in a hotel parking lot
Till the frame burns out.
Looking over your shoulder
You never get any older
Every memory's come and gone
I can't believe it's been so long.
If I could cover the distance
Would it make any difference
With all the sorrow and the joy
Frozen in the celluloid?
Looking over your shoulder
(oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh)
(oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Looking over your shoulder
Thoughts blur every time I look away
Is it you or the alcohol?
Hanging on like a death row innocent
Waiting for the call.
I don't know what I'm looking for
A light shining through an open door?
But it's enough just to have you here again
Living on the wall.
Looking over your shoulder
You never get any older
Every memory's come and gone
I can't believe it's been so long
If I could cover the distance
Would it make any difference
With all the sorrow and the joy
frozen in the celluloid?
Looking over your shoulder
(oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh)
(oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Looking over your shoulder
(oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh)

Where Do We Go lyrics - David Cook
We're counting circles
Around and around until we're down on the floor
What were we put here for?
We keep on burning
A hole in the ground
We're reaching out for more
Can't see the fight in the war
If the light leaves our heart
Do we know where to start?
Whenever the sun goes down
Where do we go?
When all of the leaves turn brown
Where do we go?
With every step that we're taking to the brink
We're cutting ties like a puppet from a string
So whether we're lost or found
Where do we go?
Before the sky falls
From Heaven to ground
We've got to run for our lives
Inside of innocent eyes
But when the night calls
We're tearing it down
Until the smoke can rise
We are the warning signs
When the light leaves our heart
Will we know where to start?
Whenever the sun goes down
Where do we go?
When all of the leaves turn brown
Where do we go?
With every step that we're taking to the brink
We're cutting ties like a puppet from a string
So whether we're lost or found
Where do we go?
By the time the music starts we'll fade away
We'll be in the trenches making our escape
Chasing fireflies like bullets to the brain
When the light leaves our heart
Will we know where to start?
Whenever the sun goes down
Where do we go?
When all of the leaves turn brown
Where do we go?
With every step that we're taking to the brink
We're cutting ties like a puppet from a string
So whether we're lost or found
Where do we go?
Wherever you go
Oooh, oooh
Around and around until we're down on the floor
What were we put here for?
We keep on burning
A hole in the ground
We're reaching out for more
Can't see the fight in the war
If the light leaves our heart
Do we know where to start?
Whenever the sun goes down
Where do we go?
When all of the leaves turn brown
Where do we go?
With every step that we're taking to the brink
We're cutting ties like a puppet from a string
So whether we're lost or found
Where do we go?
Before the sky falls
From Heaven to ground
We've got to run for our lives
Inside of innocent eyes
But when the night calls
We're tearing it down
Until the smoke can rise
We are the warning signs
When the light leaves our heart
Will we know where to start?
Whenever the sun goes down
Where do we go?
When all of the leaves turn brown
Where do we go?
With every step that we're taking to the brink
We're cutting ties like a puppet from a string
So whether we're lost or found
Where do we go?
By the time the music starts we'll fade away
We'll be in the trenches making our escape
Chasing fireflies like bullets to the brain
When the light leaves our heart
Will we know where to start?
Whenever the sun goes down
Where do we go?
When all of the leaves turn brown
Where do we go?
With every step that we're taking to the brink
We're cutting ties like a puppet from a string
So whether we're lost or found
Where do we go?
Wherever you go
Oooh, oooh
Firing Squad lyrics - David Cook
This is our manifesto
We’ve given all the best to you
Like it was the least that we could ever do
We’re soaked in gasoline while
You watched as everything just burned
Letting your lighter do the dirty work
You better hold your ground
The end is starting now
So load your gun
A war is coming
We are all
Against the wall
Won’t be the ones that time forgot
If it’s our fate
We’re not afraid
Oh we can face your firing squad
This is our revolution
Too late for absolution now
Nothing could ever put this fire out
The calm before crescendo
The quiet night before the storm
Do you remember what you’re fighting for?
You’ve covered our eyes in blindfolds
But light always finds its way back in
So go on and raise you rifles
And fire… fire… fire…
We are all
Against the wall
Won’t be the ones that time forgot
We’ll wear the stars
Like battle scars
So give us everything you got
If it’s our fate
We’re not afraid
Oh we can face your firing squad
We’ve given all the best to you
Like it was the least that we could ever do
We’re soaked in gasoline while
You watched as everything just burned
Letting your lighter do the dirty work
You better hold your ground
The end is starting now
So load your gun
A war is coming
We are all
Against the wall
Won’t be the ones that time forgot
If it’s our fate
We’re not afraid
Oh we can face your firing squad
This is our revolution
Too late for absolution now
Nothing could ever put this fire out
The calm before crescendo
The quiet night before the storm
Do you remember what you’re fighting for?
You’ve covered our eyes in blindfolds
But light always finds its way back in
So go on and raise you rifles
And fire… fire… fire…
We are all
Against the wall
Won’t be the ones that time forgot
We’ll wear the stars
Like battle scars
So give us everything you got
If it’s our fate
We’re not afraid
Oh we can face your firing squad
But You Won't lyrics - David Cook
It's cold outside
Just like the year before
But I can't help but feel like this is something new
But it's nothing more
I remember goodbye
It's been tattooed on my eyes
From the note you left beside the bed
The promises you made
That you wrote inside
You could find your way home
You could find your way home
Baby, you could find your way home
But you won't
But you won't
So here I stand
Just like the year before
And I can't help but understand you're never coming back
So there's nothing more
That I could say
To make you never leave
So please understand I can't believe a single word you say
When you're telling me
You could find your way home
You could find your way home
You could fine your way home
But you won't
But you won't
Now here we are
Face to face again
And your telling me you can still see us
making this thing work
that you still...love...me
We could find our way home
We could find our way home
We could find our way home
But we won't
But we won't
Just like the year before
But I can't help but feel like this is something new
But it's nothing more
I remember goodbye
It's been tattooed on my eyes
From the note you left beside the bed
The promises you made
That you wrote inside
You could find your way home
You could find your way home
Baby, you could find your way home
But you won't
But you won't
So here I stand
Just like the year before
And I can't help but understand you're never coming back
So there's nothing more
That I could say
To make you never leave
So please understand I can't believe a single word you say
When you're telling me
You could find your way home
You could find your way home
You could fine your way home
But you won't
But you won't
Now here we are
Face to face again
And your telling me you can still see us
making this thing work
that you still...love...me
We could find our way home
We could find our way home
We could find our way home
But we won't
But we won't
We're Not In This Alone lyrics - David Cook
I believe in movie scenes
That love can lead us back
From the seas that we bleed
These broken heart attacks
That can take us to the ground
Until the sun goes dim
Suddenly, in between
The moments we fall down
I can see, you and me
The fire to break this town
So give everything you’ve got
Before the night comes in
Will they remember us at all?
Long ago
When the light was everything we know
Before the moment where the darkness showed
Now I’m beggin’ you to
Come back home
We can be that old familiar glow
Where the hearts inside our hands can go
‘Cause we’re not in this alone
Take a chance, take my hand
Nothing can break us now
‘Cause I believe that you and me
We’re built on solid ground
So let’s make this last forever
And call it home
Let the world surrender
Let tonight remember
The daylight’s comin’ in
C’mon stay forever
Take it all on together
And help me breathe again
That love can lead us back
From the seas that we bleed
These broken heart attacks
That can take us to the ground
Until the sun goes dim
Suddenly, in between
The moments we fall down
I can see, you and me
The fire to break this town
So give everything you’ve got
Before the night comes in
Will they remember us at all?
Long ago
When the light was everything we know
Before the moment where the darkness showed
Now I’m beggin’ you to
Come back home
We can be that old familiar glow
Where the hearts inside our hands can go
‘Cause we’re not in this alone
Take a chance, take my hand
Nothing can break us now
‘Cause I believe that you and me
We’re built on solid ground
So let’s make this last forever
And call it home
Let the world surrender
Let tonight remember
The daylight’s comin’ in
C’mon stay forever
Take it all on together
And help me breathe again
Secret Garden lyrics - David
She’ll let you in her house
If you come knockin’ late at night
She’ll let you in her mouth
If the words you say are right
If you pay the price
She’ll let you deep inside
But there’s a secret garden she hides
She’ll let you in her car
To go drivin’ round
She’ll let you into the parts of herself
That’ll bring you down
She’ll let you in her heart
If you got a hammer and a vise
But into her secret garden, don’t think twice
You’ve gone a million miles
How far’d you get
To that place where you can’t remember
And you can’t forget
She’ll lead you down a path
There’ll be tenderness in the air
She’ll let you come just far enough
So you know she’s really there
She’ll look at you and smile
And her eyes will say
She’s got a secret garden
Where everything you want
Where everything you need
Will always stay
A million miles away
If you come knockin’ late at night
She’ll let you in her mouth
If the words you say are right
If you pay the price
She’ll let you deep inside
But there’s a secret garden she hides
She’ll let you in her car
To go drivin’ round
She’ll let you into the parts of herself
That’ll bring you down
She’ll let you in her heart
If you got a hammer and a vise
But into her secret garden, don’t think twice
You’ve gone a million miles
How far’d you get
To that place where you can’t remember
And you can’t forget
She’ll lead you down a path
There’ll be tenderness in the air
She’ll let you come just far enough
So you know she’s really there
She’ll look at you and smile
And her eyes will say
She’s got a secret garden
Where everything you want
Where everything you need
Will always stay
A million miles away
Eyes On You lyrics - David Cook
I know where you’re going underneath it all
I know where you’ve been
So take a minute, take a little time, to find a better line
To cover up your sins
Written in the cracks around your smile, another white lie
Now I’m zooming in
You keep running but you know you can’t hide
I’m watching every little thing you do
And all the lies that I can see right through
There ain’t no way for you to change the truth
‘Cause now I got my eyes on, I got my eyes on you
Looking all around, that familiar sound
Footsteps in your shadow
Try to figure out what’s in your head or underneath your bed
Or looking through your window
If you think you’re getting paranoid with all the white noise
You don’t even know
You keep running but you’re never gonna hide
When you thinking its crystal clear, you can’t ignore the voice inside your ear
It keeps filling your mind with doubt and there’s no way that you can drown it out
I know where you’ve been
So take a minute, take a little time, to find a better line
To cover up your sins
Written in the cracks around your smile, another white lie
Now I’m zooming in
You keep running but you know you can’t hide
I’m watching every little thing you do
And all the lies that I can see right through
There ain’t no way for you to change the truth
‘Cause now I got my eyes on, I got my eyes on you
Looking all around, that familiar sound
Footsteps in your shadow
Try to figure out what’s in your head or underneath your bed
Or looking through your window
If you think you’re getting paranoid with all the white noise
You don’t even know
You keep running but you’re never gonna hide
When you thinking its crystal clear, you can’t ignore the voice inside your ear
It keeps filling your mind with doubt and there’s no way that you can drown it out
Circadian lyrics - David Cook
Who's to say you're never wrong
Who's to say that I'm not already gone
Who's to say the time inside your head
Keeps running on and on and on and on
Who's to say we'll make it through
I'm starting to believe we think is never true
Who's to say the rhymes beside your bed
Will keep you warm when everything is getting colder
And I'm just holding on until it's over
Mayday
Somebody save me now
And I'm closing my eyes cause once the sun rises
It's out of my hands
It's out of my hands
Who's to say this history
Isn't only just some winner's distant memory
You can't escape this drying ink
The fall of who we are is getting closer
And I'm just holding on until it's over
Mayday
Somebody save me now
I'm cutting old ties from the world outside
Cause it's over my head
It's all coming undone
And falling apart somehow
And I'm closing my eyes cause once the sun rises
It's out of my hands
Oh, it's out of my hands
The light pulls me under
And I keep on caving in
Mayday
Somebody save me now
I'm cutting old ties from the world outside
Cause it's over my head, my head, my head
It's all coming undone
And falling apart somehow
And I'm closing my eyes cause once the sun rises
It's out of my hands
Oh, it's out of my hands
Who's to say that I'm not already gone
Who's to say the time inside your head
Keeps running on and on and on and on
Who's to say we'll make it through
I'm starting to believe we think is never true
Who's to say the rhymes beside your bed
Will keep you warm when everything is getting colder
And I'm just holding on until it's over
Mayday
Somebody save me now
And I'm closing my eyes cause once the sun rises
It's out of my hands
It's out of my hands
Who's to say this history
Isn't only just some winner's distant memory
You can't escape this drying ink
The fall of who we are is getting closer
And I'm just holding on until it's over
Mayday
Somebody save me now
I'm cutting old ties from the world outside
Cause it's over my head
It's all coming undone
And falling apart somehow
And I'm closing my eyes cause once the sun rises
It's out of my hands
Oh, it's out of my hands
The light pulls me under
And I keep on caving in
Mayday
Somebody save me now
I'm cutting old ties from the world outside
Cause it's over my head, my head, my head
It's all coming undone
And falling apart somehow
And I'm closing my eyes cause once the sun rises
It's out of my hands
Oh, it's out of my hands
Right Here, With You lyrics - David Cook
Everyone was watching you
As everything just slipped away
And all they ever wanted was the light you gave them
You've always been the sweetest song
And even when the world went wrong
You never let the sun go down and fall to pieces
And I can never walk away with you here
If the sun stops burning
And the world stops turning
I'll be right here with you
And if the sky keeps falling
And the night keeps calling
I'll be right here with you
I'm on your side
I can see the way you hide
All the things you keep inside
But all you ever wanted was the light to save you
We could run away somehow
Take the night and tear it down
Never let the stars burn out and fall to pieces
Nothing's going to stop us now
Cause we were born to live forever
If the sun stops burning
And the world stops turning
I'll be right here with you
And if the sky keeps falling
And the night keeps calling
I'll be right here with you
I'm on your side
And times will always change
The wings will always break
And I will be here waiting over time
Forever by your side
Our love will never die
And if the sun stops burning
And the world stops turning
I'll be right here with you
And if the sky keeps falling
And the night keeps calling
I'll be right here with you
And I'll be right here with you
I'm on your side
I'm on your side
As everything just slipped away
And all they ever wanted was the light you gave them
You've always been the sweetest song
And even when the world went wrong
You never let the sun go down and fall to pieces
And I can never walk away with you here
If the sun stops burning
And the world stops turning
I'll be right here with you
And if the sky keeps falling
And the night keeps calling
I'll be right here with you
I'm on your side
I can see the way you hide
All the things you keep inside
But all you ever wanted was the light to save you
We could run away somehow
Take the night and tear it down
Never let the stars burn out and fall to pieces
Nothing's going to stop us now
Cause we were born to live forever
If the sun stops burning
And the world stops turning
I'll be right here with you
And if the sky keeps falling
And the night keeps calling
I'll be right here with you
I'm on your side
And times will always change
The wings will always break
And I will be here waiting over time
Forever by your side
Our love will never die
And if the sun stops burning
And the world stops turning
I'll be right here with you
And if the sky keeps falling
And the night keeps calling
I'll be right here with you
And I'll be right here with you
I'm on your side
I'm on your side
We Believe lyrics - David Cook
In the night
We're all looking for a guiding light
We're all seeking something more than right
It must be there
Every day
We're all trying to find a better way
We're all hoping for someone to say
We're almost there
We believe
There's a reason that we're all here
That every doubt will disappear
We believe
In a time
And if we hit a wall that we can't climb
And if we stumble at the finish line
We'll start again
Everyone
Every single person under the sun
Has a moment where they know they won
But until then
We believe
There's a reason that we're all here
That every doubt will disappear
We believe
We believe
That tomorrow carries something new
And after everything we've been through
We believe
In the power of hope
In the strength of peace
There's a way back home
Where the battles cease
Under one we'll grow
If we just believe
This is what we know
This is what we know
We believe
That tomorrow carries something new
And after everything we've been through
We believe
That there's a reason we're all here
And every doubt will disappear
We believe
We believe
That tomorrow carries something new
And after everything we've been through
We believe
We believe
We believe
We believe
We believe
We're all looking for a guiding light
We're all seeking something more than right
It must be there
Every day
We're all trying to find a better way
We're all hoping for someone to say
We're almost there
We believe
There's a reason that we're all here
That every doubt will disappear
We believe
In a time
And if we hit a wall that we can't climb
And if we stumble at the finish line
We'll start again
Everyone
Every single person under the sun
Has a moment where they know they won
But until then
We believe
There's a reason that we're all here
That every doubt will disappear
We believe
We believe
That tomorrow carries something new
And after everything we've been through
We believe
In the power of hope
In the strength of peace
There's a way back home
Where the battles cease
Under one we'll grow
If we just believe
This is what we know
This is what we know
We believe
That tomorrow carries something new
And after everything we've been through
We believe
That there's a reason we're all here
And every doubt will disappear
We believe
We believe
That tomorrow carries something new
And after everything we've been through
We believe
We believe
We believe
We believe
We believe
Fade Into Me lyrics - David Cook
All I feel now is the weight of the day
I need you with me to push it away
When we disappear into each other
Our colors appear and bleed into one
[Chorus:]
Fade into me, fade into you
The two of us melting together
Until we become something new
And we can escape
And watch the world chasing to find us
Both of us hidden from view
If you fade into me
Fade into me
When I'm broken you're the one thing I need
Like an ocean I feel you crash over me
When we disappear into each other
Our colors appear and bleed into one
[Chorus:]
Fade into me, fade into you
The two of us melting together
Until we become something new
And we can escape
And watch the world chasing to find us
Both of us hidden from view
If you fade into me
Let go, fall in
Drown in the moment with me
Sinking 'til we start to break
[Chorus:]
Fade into me, fade into you
The two of us melting together
Until we become something new
And we can escape
And watch the world chasing to find us
Oh fade into me, fade into you
The two of us melting together
Until we become something new
And we can escape
And watch the world chasing to find us
Both of us hidden from view
If you fade into me
Fade into me
Fade into me
I need you with me to push it away
When we disappear into each other
Our colors appear and bleed into one
[Chorus:]
Fade into me, fade into you
The two of us melting together
Until we become something new
And we can escape
And watch the world chasing to find us
Both of us hidden from view
If you fade into me
Fade into me
When I'm broken you're the one thing I need
Like an ocean I feel you crash over me
When we disappear into each other
Our colors appear and bleed into one
[Chorus:]
Fade into me, fade into you
The two of us melting together
Until we become something new
And we can escape
And watch the world chasing to find us
Both of us hidden from view
If you fade into me
Let go, fall in
Drown in the moment with me
Sinking 'til we start to break
[Chorus:]
Fade into me, fade into you
The two of us melting together
Until we become something new
And we can escape
And watch the world chasing to find us
Oh fade into me, fade into you
The two of us melting together
Until we become something new
And we can escape
And watch the world chasing to find us
Both of us hidden from view
If you fade into me
Fade into me
Fade into me
Hard To Believe lyrics - David Cook
Stay
Tell me the story again
How it all fell apart in the end
Just when you thought you were too far gone
You're too far gone
Wait
Maybe the reasons don't fit
When did you lose innocence
And when did you find that you cant hold on
You cant hold on
When the whole world brings you down
When stars fall
And ground breaks
You're sinking
Coz it's too late
Don't tell me that it's over
Eventhough you're finding it hard to believe
Faith
It's easier said than done
When it's so hard to trust anyone
But maybe it's just a place inside
That you can hide
Wait
I can see us slipping away
Just stay with me
When the whole world brings you down
When stars fall
And ground breaks
You're sinking
Coz it's too late
Don't tell me that it's over
Eventhough you're finding it hard to believe
Eventhough you're finding it hard to believe
When the whole world brings you down
When the whole world brings you down
When the whole world brings you down
When the whole world brings you down
When stars fall
And ground breaks
You're sinking
Coz it's too late
I'm right here
I'm right here
Just stay with me
When stars fall
And ground breaks
You're sinking
Coz it's too late
Don't tell me that it's over
Eventhough you're finding it hard to believe
When stars fall
And ground breaks
You're sinking (Just stay with me)
Coz it's too late
Don't tell me that it's over
Eventhough you're finding it hard to believe
Tell me the story again
How it all fell apart in the end
Just when you thought you were too far gone
You're too far gone
Wait
Maybe the reasons don't fit
When did you lose innocence
And when did you find that you cant hold on
You cant hold on
When the whole world brings you down
When stars fall
And ground breaks
You're sinking
Coz it's too late
Don't tell me that it's over
Eventhough you're finding it hard to believe
Faith
It's easier said than done
When it's so hard to trust anyone
But maybe it's just a place inside
That you can hide
Wait
I can see us slipping away
Just stay with me
When the whole world brings you down
When stars fall
And ground breaks
You're sinking
Coz it's too late
Don't tell me that it's over
Eventhough you're finding it hard to believe
Eventhough you're finding it hard to believe
When the whole world brings you down
When the whole world brings you down
When the whole world brings you down
When the whole world brings you down
When stars fall
And ground breaks
You're sinking
Coz it's too late
I'm right here
I'm right here
Just stay with me
When stars fall
And ground breaks
You're sinking
Coz it's too late
Don't tell me that it's over
Eventhough you're finding it hard to believe
When stars fall
And ground breaks
You're sinking (Just stay with me)
Coz it's too late
Don't tell me that it's over
Eventhough you're finding it hard to believe
Take Me As I Am lyrics - David Cook
This is no escape
This is no surrender
My dear
This is my parade
My happy ever after
Only if you're here
When I'm lost and broken
Take me as I am
Right here where I stand
Open up your arms and let me in
Out here on my own
I know I'm not alone
Let me in your heart
Right where you stand
Take me as I am
We can take tonight
And make it last forever
If you dare
Ooh, we can run away
Take the world together
Only if you care
With these words unspoken
Take me as I am
Right here where I stand
Open up your arms and let me in
Out here on my own
I know I'm not alone
Let me in your heart
Right where you stand
Take me as I am
Give a second chance
We can take tomorrow
Make it better, you and me
Give me one more try
Before we say goodbye
Right here in this moment
Here forever
Everyday
Take me as I am
Right here where I stand
Open up your arms
Take me as I am
Right here where I stand
Open up your arms and let me in
Out here on my own
I know I'm not alone
Let me in your heart
Right where you stand
Take me as I am
Take me as I am
Take me as I am
Take me as I am
Take me as I am
This is no surrender
My dear
This is my parade
My happy ever after
Only if you're here
When I'm lost and broken
Take me as I am
Right here where I stand
Open up your arms and let me in
Out here on my own
I know I'm not alone
Let me in your heart
Right where you stand
Take me as I am
We can take tonight
And make it last forever
If you dare
Ooh, we can run away
Take the world together
Only if you care
With these words unspoken
Take me as I am
Right here where I stand
Open up your arms and let me in
Out here on my own
I know I'm not alone
Let me in your heart
Right where you stand
Take me as I am
Give a second chance
We can take tomorrow
Make it better, you and me
Give me one more try
Before we say goodbye
Right here in this moment
Here forever
Everyday
Take me as I am
Right here where I stand
Open up your arms
Take me as I am
Right here where I stand
Open up your arms and let me in
Out here on my own
I know I'm not alone
Let me in your heart
Right where you stand
Take me as I am
Take me as I am
Take me as I am
Take me as I am
Take me as I am
Time Marches On lyrics - David Cook
I never thought I'd see myself down here
In the same damn place
With the different year
Well the lines on my face
Never looked so clear
I swear
You were six feet in
On a one way street
When you gave me the love
With my heart on the sleeve
In a world full of pearls
And an endless sea
You were all that needed
All I needed
Time marches on
Right or wrong
Never waits for no one new
Can't turn it off
We'll make it through
Cause time marches on without you
If you knew then what
You know right now
Would you've packed your bags
And left this town
Cause I'm still here
With my heart on the ground
This was the last thing I needed
All I needed
Time marches on
Right or wrong
Never waits for no one new
Can't turn it off
We'll make it through
Cause time marches on without you
I never thought I'd see myself down here
In the same damn place with the different year
Time marches on
Right or wrong
Never waits for no one new
Can't turn it off
We'll make it through
Cause time marches on without you
Time marches on without you
Time marches on, I know
Time marches on without you
The Last Goodbye lyrics - David Cook
If you hear this on the radio
Then we've already said our last goodbye
I won't be there when you get home
By now there's someone else that hears you cry
I wonder if he holds you like I did
I hope that he can love you better
Cause we were everything that's right at the wrong time
I didn't want to lose you
Leave you with a broken heart
But wherever we are, we're miles apart
I know that we tried, but this is the last goodbye
Oh, I didn't want to let you go
But wherever we are, we're miles apart
I know that we tried, but this is the last goodbye
We were almost beautiful
A broken piece of art put on display
But we were never possible
Another perfect moment thrown away
I know somebody out there will love you
They'll be the forever we never were
Cause we were everything that's right at the wrong time
I didn't want to lose you
Leave you with a broken heart
But wherever we are, we're miles apart
I know that we tried, but this is the last goodbye
Oh, I didn't want to let you go
But wherever we are, we're miles apart
I know that we tried, but this is the last goodbye
Ohhh...ohhh...ohhh
Ohhh...ohhh...ohhh
Ohhh...ohhh...ohhh
If you hear this on the radio
Then we've already said our last goodbye, our last goodbye
I didn't want to lose you
Leave you with a broken heart
But wherever we are, we're miles apart
I know that we tried, but this is the last goodbye
Ohhh...ohhh...ohhh
Ohhh...ohhh...ohhh (the last goodbye)
Ohhh...ohhh...ohhh
I know that we tried but this is the last goodbye
Then we've already said our last goodbye
I won't be there when you get home
By now there's someone else that hears you cry
I wonder if he holds you like I did
I hope that he can love you better
Cause we were everything that's right at the wrong time
I didn't want to lose you
Leave you with a broken heart
But wherever we are, we're miles apart
I know that we tried, but this is the last goodbye
Oh, I didn't want to let you go
But wherever we are, we're miles apart
I know that we tried, but this is the last goodbye
We were almost beautiful
A broken piece of art put on display
But we were never possible
Another perfect moment thrown away
I know somebody out there will love you
They'll be the forever we never were
Cause we were everything that's right at the wrong time
I didn't want to lose you
Leave you with a broken heart
But wherever we are, we're miles apart
I know that we tried, but this is the last goodbye
Oh, I didn't want to let you go
But wherever we are, we're miles apart
I know that we tried, but this is the last goodbye
Ohhh...ohhh...ohhh
Ohhh...ohhh...ohhh
Ohhh...ohhh...ohhh

Paper Heart lyrics - David Cook
I can feel in the evening air all the words I want to say
But I can tell as you turn to leave that they wouldn't make you stay
Overhead the lights come on and suddenly I see
That glow is gonna guide you home wherever that may be
What use is a paper heart, when you're stuck in the rain, stuck in the rain
'Cause all the love that I hold inside; feel it washin' away, washin' away
Let it fall, take it all, 'cause I'm so tired of feelin' everything
So damn me and my paper heart in this pouring rain
I could watch as you fade away, but I hold on to the pain
In these arms that just let you go; on these lips that said your name
Couldn't know it would hurt this hard to hear you close that door
So punch a hole in my paper heart 'cause I don't need it anymore
What use is a paper heart, when you're stuck in the rain, stuck in the rain
'Cause all the love that I hold inside; feel it washin' away, washin' away
Let it fall, take it all, 'cause I'm so tired of feelin' everything
So damn me and my paper heart in this pouring rain
'Cause all the love that I hold inside; feel it washin' away...
What use is a paper heart, when you're stuck in the rain, stuck in the rain
'Cause all the love that I hold inside; feel it washin' away, washin' away
Let it fall, take it all, 'cause I'm so tired of feelin' everything
So damn me and my paper heart in this pouring rain
But I can tell as you turn to leave that they wouldn't make you stay
Overhead the lights come on and suddenly I see
That glow is gonna guide you home wherever that may be
What use is a paper heart, when you're stuck in the rain, stuck in the rain
'Cause all the love that I hold inside; feel it washin' away, washin' away
Let it fall, take it all, 'cause I'm so tired of feelin' everything
So damn me and my paper heart in this pouring rain
I could watch as you fade away, but I hold on to the pain
In these arms that just let you go; on these lips that said your name
Couldn't know it would hurt this hard to hear you close that door
So punch a hole in my paper heart 'cause I don't need it anymore
What use is a paper heart, when you're stuck in the rain, stuck in the rain
'Cause all the love that I hold inside; feel it washin' away, washin' away
Let it fall, take it all, 'cause I'm so tired of feelin' everything
So damn me and my paper heart in this pouring rain
'Cause all the love that I hold inside; feel it washin' away...
What use is a paper heart, when you're stuck in the rain, stuck in the rain
'Cause all the love that I hold inside; feel it washin' away, washin' away
Let it fall, take it all, 'cause I'm so tired of feelin' everything
So damn me and my paper heart in this pouring rain
4 Letter Word lyrics - David Cook
Hold your tongue,
Hold it tight,
Or we'll be destined to fall, Like the sun did tonight,
Leave it out, coz it might,
Take the both of us down Before we get it right,
Oh I know just what you're thinking,
But if we ever let it go,
I see us slipping away,
Starting to fade,
Crumbling down till we both hit the ground,
You know if we never say,
We'll never crash and burn,
Coz love is a 4 letter word
Looking back, now I see,
Seeing just how it feels to cause such misery,
All I want is to keep this moment alive,
Featuring you and me.
And I know just what you're thinking,
But if we ever let it go,
I see us slipping away,
Starting to fade,
Crumbling down till we both hit the ground,
You know if we never say,
We'll never crash and burn,
Coz love is a 4 letter word.
I am afraid of losing all that we had now,
A four letter word,
It could all get ruined if it's ever said out loud,
Slipping away,
Starting to fade,
Crumbling down till we both hit the ground,
You know if we never say,
We'll never crash and burn,
Coz love is a 4 letter word.
I see us slipping away,
Starting to fade,
Crumbling down till we both hit the ground,
You know if we never say,
We'll never crash and burn,
Coz love is a 4 letter word.
Coz love is a 4 letter word.
Hold it tight,
Or we'll be destined to fall, Like the sun did tonight,
Leave it out, coz it might,
Take the both of us down Before we get it right,
Oh I know just what you're thinking,
But if we ever let it go,
I see us slipping away,
Starting to fade,
Crumbling down till we both hit the ground,
You know if we never say,
We'll never crash and burn,
Coz love is a 4 letter word
Looking back, now I see,
Seeing just how it feels to cause such misery,
All I want is to keep this moment alive,
Featuring you and me.
And I know just what you're thinking,
But if we ever let it go,
I see us slipping away,
Starting to fade,
Crumbling down till we both hit the ground,
You know if we never say,
We'll never crash and burn,
Coz love is a 4 letter word.
I am afraid of losing all that we had now,
A four letter word,
It could all get ruined if it's ever said out loud,
Slipping away,
Starting to fade,
Crumbling down till we both hit the ground,
You know if we never say,
We'll never crash and burn,
Coz love is a 4 letter word.
I see us slipping away,
Starting to fade,
Crumbling down till we both hit the ground,
You know if we never say,
We'll never crash and burn,
Coz love is a 4 letter word.
Coz love is a 4 letter word.
Goodbye To The Girl lyrics - David Cook
Paint another picture black and blue
take another moment, one or two
just to get over you
When did all the gold around us rust?
Turning all the love we had to dust
It took the best of you
it took the best of you
Oh I've got nowhere to hide
I'd say my goodbye to the girl
I'm leaning on the edge
I'm jumping off the ledge
Take another picture off the wall
Just another moment, watch it fall
into the ocean blue
Take a look at where we used to be
Now I'm just a vessel lost at see
I can't get over you
I don't know what to do
Oh I've got nowhere to hide
I'd say my goodbye to the girl
I'm leaning on the edge
I'm jumping off the ledge
watching the night do what the light never could
So tell me I'm crazy
It's not gonna save me
From holding my breath
'Til the lines burn
'Cause I've got nowhere to hide
I'd say my goodbye to the girl
Oh, goodbye to the girl
Paint another picture black and blue
Take another moment, one or two
Oh I've got nowhere to hide
I'd say my goodbye to the girl
I'm leaning on the edge
I'm jumping off the ledge
Watching the night do what the light never could
So tell me I'm crazy
It's not gonna save me
From holding my breath
'Til the lines burn
'Cause I've got nowhere to hide
I'd say my goodbye to the girl
and goodbye to the world
Oh, goodbye to the world
take another moment, one or two
just to get over you
When did all the gold around us rust?
Turning all the love we had to dust
It took the best of you
it took the best of you
Oh I've got nowhere to hide
I'd say my goodbye to the girl
I'm leaning on the edge
I'm jumping off the ledge
Take another picture off the wall
Just another moment, watch it fall
into the ocean blue
Take a look at where we used to be
Now I'm just a vessel lost at see
I can't get over you
I don't know what to do
Oh I've got nowhere to hide
I'd say my goodbye to the girl
I'm leaning on the edge
I'm jumping off the ledge
watching the night do what the light never could
So tell me I'm crazy
It's not gonna save me
From holding my breath
'Til the lines burn
'Cause I've got nowhere to hide
I'd say my goodbye to the girl
Oh, goodbye to the girl
Paint another picture black and blue
Take another moment, one or two
Oh I've got nowhere to hide
I'd say my goodbye to the girl
I'm leaning on the edge
I'm jumping off the ledge
Watching the night do what the light never could
So tell me I'm crazy
It's not gonna save me
From holding my breath
'Til the lines burn
'Cause I've got nowhere to hide
I'd say my goodbye to the girl
and goodbye to the world
Oh, goodbye to the world
Rapid Eye Movement lyrics - David Cook
Give me one more quiet night,
Before this loud morning gets it right and does me in.
Does this story have an ending?
Cause I’m needing to escape.
And kill the blinding lights of day to try again.
Close my eyes and start descending.
[CHORUS]
I, I can’t seem to find a way back in time.
Every last thought of love we made.
That still keeps me awake; still keeps me from everything we had.
And I’m trying to get back.
Trying to get back.
We keep floating towards the floor.
Still in this pattern, nevermore of sink or swim.
But the oxygen is proving more than words could ever say.
To put these memories away.
So this is it.
These rapid eyes will keep on moving.
These rapid eyes will keep on moving.
[CHORUS]
Cause I, I can’t seem to find a way back in time.
Every last thought of love we made.
That still keeps me awake; still keeps me from everything we had.
And I’m trying to get back.
And I’m trying to get back.
(And I’m trying to get back)
(Trying to get back)
Give me one more quiet.
Before this loud morning gets it right and does me in.
Is this story worth forgetting?
[CHORUS]
Cause I, I can’t seem to find a way back in time.
Every last thought of love we made.
That still keeps me awake; still keeps me from everything we had.
And I’m trying to get back.
Trying to get back.
Trying to get back.
Trying to get back.
(Save me)
(Somebody save me)
(Mayday)
(Somebody save me)
Before this loud morning gets it right and does me in.
Does this story have an ending?
Cause I’m needing to escape.
And kill the blinding lights of day to try again.
Close my eyes and start descending.
[CHORUS]
I, I can’t seem to find a way back in time.
Every last thought of love we made.
That still keeps me awake; still keeps me from everything we had.
And I’m trying to get back.
Trying to get back.
We keep floating towards the floor.
Still in this pattern, nevermore of sink or swim.
But the oxygen is proving more than words could ever say.
To put these memories away.
So this is it.
These rapid eyes will keep on moving.
These rapid eyes will keep on moving.
[CHORUS]
Cause I, I can’t seem to find a way back in time.
Every last thought of love we made.
That still keeps me awake; still keeps me from everything we had.
And I’m trying to get back.
And I’m trying to get back.
(And I’m trying to get back)
(Trying to get back)
Give me one more quiet.
Before this loud morning gets it right and does me in.
Is this story worth forgetting?
[CHORUS]
Cause I, I can’t seem to find a way back in time.

Trying to get back.
Trying to get back.
Trying to get back.
(Save me)

This Is Not The Last Time lyrics - David Cook
I remember
When the world outside
Was just a picture
Where the colors came alive
Nothing broken
We were once so brave
Then the ocean
Came and took it all away
And all that I could say
This is not the last time
I will see the sun rise
Cause I’ve been dreamin’ for too long
To give up and leave this behind
This is not the last time
Now we’re older
But we’re still the same
A little wiser
Ah but we are not afraid
Of open waters
Let them take away
Everything
This is not the last time
I will see the sun rise
Cause I’ve been dreamin’ for too long
To give up and leave this behind
This is not the only way
Tomorrow’s holding on to another day
I know that this moment’s real
Even though it might feel like goodbye
This is not the last time
This is not a goodbye
This is just a lullaby
And everything will be alright
This is not the last time
I will see the sun rise
Cause I’ve been dreamin’ for too long
To give up and leave this behind
This is not the only way
Tomorrow’s holding on to present day
I know that this moment’s real
Even though it might feel like goodbye
This is not the last time
I remember
When the world outside
Was just a picture
Where the colors came alive
I remember
When the world outside
Was just a picture
This is not the last time
When the world outside
Was just a picture
Where the colors came alive
Nothing broken
We were once so brave
Then the ocean
Came and took it all away
And all that I could say
This is not the last time
I will see the sun rise
Cause I’ve been dreamin’ for too long
To give up and leave this behind
This is not the last time
Now we’re older
But we’re still the same
A little wiser
Ah but we are not afraid
Of open waters
Let them take away
Everything
This is not the last time
I will see the sun rise
Cause I’ve been dreamin’ for too long
To give up and leave this behind
This is not the only way
Tomorrow’s holding on to another day
I know that this moment’s real
Even though it might feel like goodbye
This is not the last time
This is not a goodbye
This is just a lullaby
And everything will be alright
This is not the last time
I will see the sun rise
Cause I’ve been dreamin’ for too long
To give up and leave this behind
This is not the only way
Tomorrow’s holding on to present day
I know that this moment’s real
Even though it might feel like goodbye
This is not the last time
I remember
When the world outside
Was just a picture
Where the colors came alive
I remember
When the world outside
Was just a picture
This is not the last time
Let Me Fall For You lyrics - David Cook
I was wrong, I was wrong,
Thinking my heart can be my own.
I was strong, I was strong,
When I had a reason to hold on.
Let me fall, let me fall for you.
Let me fall for you.
Don’t look down, don’t look down,
By now it’s too late to take it slow.
Turn around, turn around,
Give me a reason to let go.
Let me fall, let me fall for you,
Let me fall for you.
It’s almost over,
I’m hanging by a thread.
With all the words you never said
I’m going under,
So tell me what to do.
I’ve got nothing to hold on to.
Let me fall for you.
All the time, all the time,
You were the one that got me through.
Like a sign, like a sign,
You were the voice that knew the truth.
Let me fall, let me fall for you.
Let me fall for you.
It’s almost over,
I’m hanging by a thread
With all the words
You never said.
I’m going under,
So tell me what to do.
I’ve got nothing to hold on to.
Let me fall for you.
(Let me fall like a stone in the water
Let me fall like a plane out of the sky
Let me crash, let me burn my heart out
Let me learn to fly)
Thinking my heart can be my own.
I was strong, I was strong,
When I had a reason to hold on.
Let me fall, let me fall for you.
Let me fall for you.
Don’t look down, don’t look down,
By now it’s too late to take it slow.
Turn around, turn around,
Give me a reason to let go.
Let me fall, let me fall for you,
Let me fall for you.
It’s almost over,
I’m hanging by a thread.
With all the words you never said
I’m going under,
So tell me what to do.
I’ve got nothing to hold on to.
Let me fall for you.
All the time, all the time,
You were the one that got me through.
Like a sign, like a sign,
You were the voice that knew the truth.
Let me fall, let me fall for you.
Let me fall for you.
It’s almost over,
I’m hanging by a thread
With all the words
You never said.
I’m going under,
So tell me what to do.
I’ve got nothing to hold on to.
Let me fall for you.
(Let me fall like a stone in the water
Let me fall like a plane out of the sky
Let me crash, let me burn my heart out
Let me learn to fly)
Declaration lyrics - David Cook
I'll take you just the way you are
Imperfect words inside the perfect song
I feel you closer than you are
And I've been waiting far too long,
Too long
It's my declaration
To anyone whose listening
You're my inspiration
As I stand alone against the world
Cause you love,
And you bleed,
And you stole my soul to set me free
It's my declaration
Do you care what I believe
('Cause I'm still breathing)
Or that I wear a heart upon my sleeve
Sometimes I think you never knew
The only truth I see is-you
It's you
It's my declaration
To anyone whose listening
You're my inspiration
As I stand alone against the world
Cause you love,
And you bleed,
And you stole my soul to set me free
It's my declaration
And are there any words to say
That I would ever mean enough
When the light runs from the day
Will the darkness be too much?
Will I ever be enough?
It's my declaration
To anyone whose listening
You're my inspiration
As I stand alone against the world
Cause you love,
And you bleed,
And you stole my soul to set me free
It's my declaration
So tell me you can hear these words tonight
It's my declaration
Imperfect words inside the perfect song
I feel you closer than you are
And I've been waiting far too long,
Too long
It's my declaration
To anyone whose listening
You're my inspiration
As I stand alone against the world
Cause you love,
And you bleed,
And you stole my soul to set me free
It's my declaration
Do you care what I believe
('Cause I'm still breathing)
Or that I wear a heart upon my sleeve
Sometimes I think you never knew
The only truth I see is-you
It's you
It's my declaration
To anyone whose listening
You're my inspiration
As I stand alone against the world
Cause you love,
And you bleed,
And you stole my soul to set me free
It's my declaration
And are there any words to say
That I would ever mean enough
When the light runs from the day
Will the darkness be too much?
Will I ever be enough?
It's my declaration
To anyone whose listening
You're my inspiration
As I stand alone against the world
Cause you love,
And you bleed,
And you stole my soul to set me free
It's my declaration
So tell me you can hear these words tonight
It's my declaration
Heroes lyrics - David Cook
As the sun goes down in front of me
It reminds of me of where I want to be
With you and you alone
Hold me in like you were made for me
I'm losing faith in gravity
I just need to let you know
And I just need to let you know
I'm not going to come down
Down off of these clouds
All these heroes come and go
But you're still standing
You teach me to rise up
To open my eyes up
All these heroes come and go
But you're still standing
You're still standing
You know the world's confusing
I don't care
I crawl into your atmosphere
I know you'll make it right
You're all I need to know
I'm not going to come down
Down off of these clouds
All these heroes come and go
But you're still standing
You teach me to rise up
To open my eyes up
All these heroes come and go
But you're still standing
I believe that you can save me
And you'll never let me fall
I'm not going to come down
I believe in what you've shown me
There's a hero in us all
I'm not going to come down
Down off of these clouds
All these heroes come and go
You teach me to rise up
To open my eyes up
It reminds of me of where I want to be
With you and you alone
Hold me in like you were made for me
I'm losing faith in gravity
I just need to let you know
And I just need to let you know
I'm not going to come down
Down off of these clouds
All these heroes come and go
But you're still standing
You teach me to rise up
To open my eyes up
All these heroes come and go
But you're still standing
You're still standing
You know the world's confusing
I don't care
I crawl into your atmosphere
I know you'll make it right
You're all I need to know
I'm not going to come down
Down off of these clouds
All these heroes come and go
But you're still standing
You teach me to rise up
To open my eyes up
All these heroes come and go
But you're still standing
I believe that you can save me
And you'll never let me fall
I'm not going to come down
I believe in what you've shown me
There's a hero in us all
I'm not going to come down
Down off of these clouds
All these heroes come and go
You teach me to rise up
To open my eyes up
Light On lyrics - David Cook
Never really said too much
Afraid it wouldn’t be enough
Just try to keep my spirits up
When there’s no point in grieving
Doesn’t matter anyway
Words could never make me stay
Words will never take my place
When you know I’m leaving
[Chorus]
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Something I rely on to get home
One I can feel at night
A naked light, a fire to keep me warm
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Even in the daylight, shine on
And when it’s late at night you can look inside
You won’t feel so alone
You know we’ve been down that road
What seems a thousand times before
My back to a closing door and my eyes to the seasons
That roll out underneath my heels
And you don’t know how bad it feels
To leave the only one that I have ever believed in
[Chorus]
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Something I rely on to get home
One I can feel at night
A naked light, a fire to keep me warm
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Even in the daylight, shine on
And when it’s late at night you can look inside
You won’t feel so alone
Sometimes it feels like we’ve run out of luck
When the signal keeps on breaking up
When the wires cross in my brain
You’ll start my heart again
When I come along
[Chorus]
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Something I rely on to get home
One I can feel at night
A naked light, a fire to keep me warm
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Even in the daylight, shine on
And when it’s late at night you can look inside
You won’t feel so alone
Afraid it wouldn’t be enough
Just try to keep my spirits up
When there’s no point in grieving
Doesn’t matter anyway
Words could never make me stay
Words will never take my place
When you know I’m leaving
[Chorus]
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Something I rely on to get home
One I can feel at night
A naked light, a fire to keep me warm
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Even in the daylight, shine on
And when it’s late at night you can look inside
You won’t feel so alone
You know we’ve been down that road
What seems a thousand times before
My back to a closing door and my eyes to the seasons
That roll out underneath my heels
And you don’t know how bad it feels
To leave the only one that I have ever believed in
[Chorus]
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Something I rely on to get home
One I can feel at night
A naked light, a fire to keep me warm
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Even in the daylight, shine on
And when it’s late at night you can look inside
You won’t feel so alone
Sometimes it feels like we’ve run out of luck
When the signal keeps on breaking up
When the wires cross in my brain
You’ll start my heart again
When I come along
[Chorus]
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Something I rely on to get home
One I can feel at night
A naked light, a fire to keep me warm
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Even in the daylight, shine on
And when it’s late at night you can look inside
You won’t feel so alone
Come Back To Me lyrics - David Cook
You say you gotta go and find yourself
You say that you're becoming someone else
Don't recognize the face in the mirror
Looking back at you
You say you're leavin
As you look away
I know theres really nothin left to say
Just know i'm here
Whenever you need me
I'll wait for you
So i'll let you go
I'll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you come back to me
Take your time i wont go anywhere
Picture you with the wind in your hair
I'll keep your things right where you left them
I'll be here for you
Oh and i'll let you go
I'll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you come back to me
And i hope you find everything that you need
I'll be right here waiting to see
You find you come back to me
I can't get close if your not there
I can't get inside if theres no soul to bear
I can't fix you i can't save you
Its something you have to do
So i'll let you go
I'll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you come back to me
Come back to me
So i'll let you go
I'll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you come back to me
And i hope you find everything that you need
I'll be right here waiting to see
You find you come back to me
When you find you come back to me
When you find you come back to me
When you find you come back to me
You say that you're becoming someone else
Don't recognize the face in the mirror
Looking back at you
You say you're leavin
As you look away
I know theres really nothin left to say
Just know i'm here
Whenever you need me
I'll wait for you
So i'll let you go
I'll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you come back to me
Take your time i wont go anywhere
Picture you with the wind in your hair
I'll keep your things right where you left them
I'll be here for you
Oh and i'll let you go
I'll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you come back to me
And i hope you find everything that you need
I'll be right here waiting to see
You find you come back to me
I can't get close if your not there
I can't get inside if theres no soul to bear
I can't fix you i can't save you
Its something you have to do
So i'll let you go
I'll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you come back to me
Come back to me
So i'll let you go
I'll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you come back to me
And i hope you find everything that you need
I'll be right here waiting to see
You find you come back to me
When you find you come back to me
When you find you come back to me
When you find you come back to me
Life On The Moon lyrics - David Cook
Here in this crowd I'm feeling all alone
Turn me around and point me back to home
I'm getting lost more everyday
And I can't tear myself away
From the stars in my eyes with no light
Here are my terms, have some faith in me
And I'll let you be who you need to be
[Chorus:]
Life on the moon couldn't be any stranger
Life on the moon wouldn't feel this far away?
The life that I knew is trough
And I'm gonna need you more than ever
I'm alone in this crowded room
Its like life on the moon
Flown off the ground my head's up in the air
Self counscious to a fault with all the pople everywhere
Is getting harder everynight to take the punches left and right
Just to know that you're here by my side
Here are my terms have some faith in me
And I'll let you be who you need to be
[Chorus]
Life on the moon couldn't be any stranger
Life on the moon wouldn't feel this far away
The life that I knew is through
And im gonna need you more than ever
Im alone in this crowded room
Its like life on the moon
Getting lost in my own atmosphere
Stars in the sky are the stars in my eyes
Is the cost of getting out of here alive
[Chorus]
Life on the moon couldn't be any stranger
Life on the moon wouldn't feel this far way
The life that I knew is through
And im gonna need you more than ever
Im alone in this crowded room
Life on the moon
Life on the moon
The life that I know is through
And im gonna need you more than ever
Im alone in this crowded room
Its like life on the moon
Life on the moon
Turn me around and point me back to home
I'm getting lost more everyday
And I can't tear myself away
From the stars in my eyes with no light
Here are my terms, have some faith in me
And I'll let you be who you need to be
[Chorus:]
Life on the moon couldn't be any stranger
Life on the moon wouldn't feel this far away?
The life that I knew is trough
And I'm gonna need you more than ever
I'm alone in this crowded room
Its like life on the moon
Flown off the ground my head's up in the air
Self counscious to a fault with all the pople everywhere
Is getting harder everynight to take the punches left and right
Just to know that you're here by my side
Here are my terms have some faith in me
And I'll let you be who you need to be
[Chorus]
Life on the moon couldn't be any stranger
Life on the moon wouldn't feel this far away
The life that I knew is through
And im gonna need you more than ever
Im alone in this crowded room
Its like life on the moon
Getting lost in my own atmosphere
Stars in the sky are the stars in my eyes
Is the cost of getting out of here alive
[Chorus]
Life on the moon couldn't be any stranger
Life on the moon wouldn't feel this far way
The life that I knew is through
And im gonna need you more than ever
Im alone in this crowded room
Life on the moon
Life on the moon
The life that I know is through
And im gonna need you more than ever
Im alone in this crowded room
Its like life on the moon
Life on the moon
Bar-Ba-Sol lyrics - David Cook
When I woke up, I could see The daylight had already passed me
It was such a fight to fade away to sleep
It's a fugue I'm on, falling to chase down the dawn
And I fell every night, as it turns into light with my eyes just shut tight
Sailing all alone, thought I'd made it home
But I threw it all away
Oh where I've been, sold and spun again
All before me like a dream, fallin' in between
I feel sick, I feel nervous, I know just what I did to deserve this
Oh I know it's not a dream
Keep it quiet, lay low, holdin' on to what I don't want to know
Til the daylight turns to ash and blows away
Missin' keys, bloody nose, consequences of what I chose
Keep runnin' into me, don't want my memory, it comes so deathly
Sailing all alone, thought I'd made it home
But I threw it all away
Oh where I've been, sold and spun again
All before me like a dream, fallin' in between
I feel sick, I feel nervous, I know just what I did to deserve this
Oh I know it's not a dream
Oh where I've been, sold and spun again
All before me like a dream, fallin' in between
I feel sick, I feel nervous, I know just what I did to deserve this
Oh I know it's not a dream
Oh where I've been, sold and spun again
All before me like a dream, fallin' in between
I feel sick, I feel nervous, I know just what I did to deserve this
Oh I wish life was a dream
It was such a fight to fade away to sleep
It's a fugue I'm on, falling to chase down the dawn
And I fell every night, as it turns into light with my eyes just shut tight
Sailing all alone, thought I'd made it home
But I threw it all away
Oh where I've been, sold and spun again
All before me like a dream, fallin' in between
I feel sick, I feel nervous, I know just what I did to deserve this
Oh I know it's not a dream
Keep it quiet, lay low, holdin' on to what I don't want to know
Til the daylight turns to ash and blows away
Missin' keys, bloody nose, consequences of what I chose
Keep runnin' into me, don't want my memory, it comes so deathly
Sailing all alone, thought I'd made it home
But I threw it all away
Oh where I've been, sold and spun again
All before me like a dream, fallin' in between
I feel sick, I feel nervous, I know just what I did to deserve this
Oh I know it's not a dream
Oh where I've been, sold and spun again
All before me like a dream, fallin' in between
I feel sick, I feel nervous, I know just what I did to deserve this
Oh I know it's not a dream
Oh where I've been, sold and spun again
All before me like a dream, fallin' in between
I feel sick, I feel nervous, I know just what I did to deserve this
Oh I wish life was a dream
Mr. Sensitive lyrics - David Cook
Day in and day out.
Watch him scream, watch him shout.
Through the silence.
Through the silence.
Give him ears, give him lies.
Give some point to the cries.
And the violence
Oh the violence
Hear him scream your name
I would like to introduce Mr. Sensitive
The one who never let the worst get the best of him
Get the best of him
This city feels low
It gives the gleam and the glow
Of his diligence to their elegance.
Just feel anger, feel pain.
Feel the sun and the rain
Just feel something.
Oh feel something.
Hear them scream your name.
I would like to introduce Mr. Sensitive
The one who never let the worst get the best of him
They throw the stones and bricks and bones.
"He didn't stand a chance", they said.
A little boy the world is over.
Ignorance is bliss.
I would like to introduce Mr. Sensitive.
The one who never let the worst get the best of him.
I would like to introduce Mr. Sensitive.
The one who never let the worst get the best of him.
Get the best of him.
Watch him scream, watch him shout.
Through the silence.
Through the silence.
Give him ears, give him lies.
Give some point to the cries.
And the violence
Oh the violence
Hear him scream your name
I would like to introduce Mr. Sensitive
The one who never let the worst get the best of him
Get the best of him
This city feels low
It gives the gleam and the glow
Of his diligence to their elegance.
Just feel anger, feel pain.
Feel the sun and the rain
Just feel something.
Oh feel something.
Hear them scream your name.
I would like to introduce Mr. Sensitive
The one who never let the worst get the best of him
They throw the stones and bricks and bones.
"He didn't stand a chance", they said.
A little boy the world is over.
Ignorance is bliss.
I would like to introduce Mr. Sensitive.
The one who never let the worst get the best of him.
I would like to introduce Mr. Sensitive.
The one who never let the worst get the best of him.
Get the best of him.
Lie lyrics - David Cook
You whispered that you were getting tired,
Got a look in your eye,
Looks a lot like goodbye.
Hold on to your secrets tonight.
Don't want to know I'm OK with this silence
It's truth that I don't want to hear
You're hiding regret in your smile
There's a storm in your eyes I've seen coming for awhile
Hold on to the past tense tonight
Don't say a word,
I'm OK with the quiet.
The truth is gonna change everything.
So lie to me and tell me that it's gonna be alright
So lie to me and tell me that we'll make it through the night
I don't mind if you wait before you tear me apart
Look me in the eye,
Lie, lie, lie.
Lie, lie, lie.
I know that there's no turning back.
If we put too much light on this we'll see through all the cracks.
Let's stay in the dark one more night.
Don't want to know I'm OK with the silence.
It's truth that I don't want to hear.
So lie to me and tell me that it's gonna be alright
So lie to me and tell me that we'll make it through the night
I don't mind if you wait before you tear me apart
So look me in the eye,
And lie, lie, lie.
Don't want to believe in this ending
Let the cameras roll on,
Keep pretending
Tomorrow's all wrong if you walk away
Just stay
So lie to me and tell me that it's gonna be alright
So lie to me and tell me that we'll make it through the night
I don't mind if you wait before you tear me apart
Look me in the eye,
And lie, lie, lie.
So lie to me and tell me that we're gonna be OK
So lie to me and tell me that we'll make it through the day
I don't mind if you wait before you tear me apart
Look me in the eye,
And lie, lie, lie.
Got a look in your eye,
Looks a lot like goodbye.
Hold on to your secrets tonight.
Don't want to know I'm OK with this silence
It's truth that I don't want to hear
You're hiding regret in your smile
There's a storm in your eyes I've seen coming for awhile
Hold on to the past tense tonight
Don't say a word,
I'm OK with the quiet.
The truth is gonna change everything.
So lie to me and tell me that it's gonna be alright
So lie to me and tell me that we'll make it through the night
I don't mind if you wait before you tear me apart
Look me in the eye,
Lie, lie, lie.
Lie, lie, lie.
I know that there's no turning back.
If we put too much light on this we'll see through all the cracks.
Let's stay in the dark one more night.
Don't want to know I'm OK with the silence.
It's truth that I don't want to hear.
So lie to me and tell me that it's gonna be alright
So lie to me and tell me that we'll make it through the night
I don't mind if you wait before you tear me apart
So look me in the eye,
And lie, lie, lie.
Don't want to believe in this ending
Let the cameras roll on,
Keep pretending
Tomorrow's all wrong if you walk away
Just stay
So lie to me and tell me that it's gonna be alright
So lie to me and tell me that we'll make it through the night
I don't mind if you wait before you tear me apart
Look me in the eye,
And lie, lie, lie.
So lie to me and tell me that we're gonna be OK
So lie to me and tell me that we'll make it through the day
I don't mind if you wait before you tear me apart
Look me in the eye,
And lie, lie, lie.
I Did It For You lyrics - David Cook
Today's not the same
As every day
It's far from ordinary
The pain I endure
You're my cure
But my mistakes have led me
Far away from you...
You turn away
From all those things
That I've been trying to say
And all those promises
I shouldn't have made
I did it for you
My open mind
Feelings I just can't reconcile
My heart's on a string
These broken wings
You knew I'd be so fragile
Far away from you...
You turn away
From all those things
That I've been trying to say
And all those promises
I shouldn't have made
I did it for you
I searched my soul
And all these feelings
That I can't control
And you're the one thing
That can make me whole
I did it for you
Try to let you know
Try to let you know
Try to let you know...
Today is not the same
As everyday
It's far from ordinary...
You turn away
From all those things
That I've been trying to say
And all those promises
I shouldn't have made
I did it for you
Oh I searched my soul
And all these feelings
That I can't control
And you're the one thing
That can make me whole
I did it for you...
I did it for you...
I did it for you...
You're the one thing that can make me whole
I did it for you...
As every day
It's far from ordinary
The pain I endure
You're my cure
But my mistakes have led me
Far away from you...
You turn away
From all those things
That I've been trying to say
And all those promises
I shouldn't have made
I did it for you
My open mind
Feelings I just can't reconcile
My heart's on a string
These broken wings
You knew I'd be so fragile
Far away from you...
You turn away
From all those things
That I've been trying to say
And all those promises
I shouldn't have made
I did it for you
I searched my soul
And all these feelings
That I can't control
And you're the one thing
That can make me whole
I did it for you
Try to let you know
Try to let you know
Try to let you know...
Today is not the same
As everyday
It's far from ordinary...
You turn away
From all those things
That I've been trying to say
And all those promises
I shouldn't have made
I did it for you
Oh I searched my soul
And all these feelings
That I can't control
And you're the one thing
That can make me whole
I did it for you...
I did it for you...
I did it for you...
You're the one thing that can make me whole
I did it for you...
Avalanche lyrics - David Cook
I feel alive beside you
And all at once
I am whole again.
We fall into each other
Your atmosphere
Is all I'm breathing in
And in this rush
We are crushed
Carry me down
Roll it in your arms
Cause' I can't remember
Ever falling this hard
Tell me tonight,
All that we have been
Was it nothin' more
Than a noise inside my head
Crashing down, crashing down,
In your avalanche.
In your avalanche.
These scars we wear remind us
The more we change
The more we're all the same
Swept up in this emotion
We fumble through and make the same mistakes
Cause' we are led
To the edge
Carry me down
Roll it in your arms
I can't remember
Ever falling this hard
Tell me tonight
All that we have been
Was it nothin' more
Than a noise inside my head
Crashing down, crashing down,
In your avalanche
Crashing down, crashing down,
Carry me down
Roll it in your arms
Cause I can't remember
Ever falling this hard
Tell me tonight
All that we have been
Was it nothin' more
Than a noise inside my head
Carry me down
Roll it in your arms
Cause I can't remember
Ever falling this hard
Tell me tonight
All that we have been
Was it nothin more
Than a noise inside our heads
Crashing down, crashing down...
Was it nothing more
Than a noise inside our heads
Crashing down
Crashing down
I feel alive beside you
Than all at once I am whole again...
And all at once
I am whole again.
We fall into each other
Your atmosphere
Is all I'm breathing in
And in this rush
We are crushed
Carry me down
Roll it in your arms
Cause' I can't remember
Ever falling this hard
Tell me tonight,
All that we have been
Was it nothin' more
Than a noise inside my head
Crashing down, crashing down,
In your avalanche.
In your avalanche.
These scars we wear remind us
The more we change
The more we're all the same
Swept up in this emotion
We fumble through and make the same mistakes
Cause' we are led
To the edge
Carry me down
Roll it in your arms
I can't remember
Ever falling this hard
Tell me tonight
All that we have been
Was it nothin' more
Than a noise inside my head
Crashing down, crashing down,
In your avalanche
Crashing down, crashing down,
Carry me down
Roll it in your arms
Cause I can't remember
Ever falling this hard
Tell me tonight
All that we have been
Was it nothin' more
Than a noise inside my head
Carry me down
Roll it in your arms
Cause I can't remember
Ever falling this hard
Tell me tonight
All that we have been
Was it nothin more
Than a noise inside our heads
Crashing down, crashing down...
Was it nothing more
Than a noise inside our heads
Crashing down
Crashing down
I feel alive beside you
Than all at once I am whole again...
Permanent lyrics - David Cook
Is this the moment where I look you in the eye?
Forgive my broken promise that you'll never see me cry
And everything, it will surely change even if I tell you I won't go away today
Will you think that you're all alone
When no one's there to hold your hand?
And all you know seems so far away and everything is temporary rest your head
I'm permanent
I know he's living in hell every single day
And so I ask oh god is there some way for me to take his place
And when they say it's all touch and go I wish I could make it go away
But still you say
Will you think that you're all alone when no one's there to hold your hand?
When all you know seems so far away and everything is temporary, rest your head
I'm permanent
I'm permanent
Is the moment where I look you in the eye?
Forgive my promise that you'll never see me cry
Forgive my broken promise that you'll never see me cry
And everything, it will surely change even if I tell you I won't go away today
Will you think that you're all alone
When no one's there to hold your hand?
And all you know seems so far away and everything is temporary rest your head
I'm permanent
I know he's living in hell every single day
And so I ask oh god is there some way for me to take his place
And when they say it's all touch and go I wish I could make it go away
But still you say
Will you think that you're all alone when no one's there to hold your hand?
When all you know seems so far away and everything is temporary, rest your head
I'm permanent
I'm permanent
Is the moment where I look you in the eye?
Forgive my promise that you'll never see me cry
A Daily AntheM lyrics - David Cook
Break your neck for some substance
This is temporary sanity, an exercise in vanity
So long to the ordinary day wrought with fictitious tales
of how there's any other way
Hold on to anything at all
It's a long way down between the summer and the fall
If I told you that you're everything,
Would you sing along?
Would you sing along?
It's a daily anthem
Would you sing my song,
At the top of your lungs?
And we'll all sing along,
We'll all sing along
It's a half-baked blessing
For the lessons I've learned,
Never deserved.
And we'll all sing along,
Oh we'll all sing along
Now the verses take hold,
A gentle undercurrent of more years to grow old
Say goodbye to the cold
And try to forgive everything this night.
As we sing your daily anthem,
Would you sing my song,
At the top of your lungs?
And we'll all sing along,
We'll all sing along
It's a half-baked blessing
For the lessons I've learned,
Never deserved.
And we'll all sing along,
We'll all sing along
This is temporary sanity, an exercise in vanity
So long to the ordinary day wrought with fictitious tales
of how there's any other way
Hold on to anything at all
It's a long way down between the summer and the fall
If I told you that you're everything,
Would you sing along?
Would you sing along?
It's a daily anthem
Would you sing my song,
At the top of your lungs?
And we'll all sing along,
We'll all sing along
It's a half-baked blessing
For the lessons I've learned,
Never deserved.
And we'll all sing along,
Oh we'll all sing along
Now the verses take hold,
A gentle undercurrent of more years to grow old
Say goodbye to the cold
And try to forgive everything this night.
As we sing your daily anthem,
Would you sing my song,
At the top of your lungs?
And we'll all sing along,
We'll all sing along
It's a half-baked blessing
For the lessons I've learned,
Never deserved.
And we'll all sing along,
We'll all sing along
Kiss On The Neck lyrics - David Cook
Put on a scent with some attitude
Put on a dress with some bite
Make up your skin like your favorite star
You're going out tonight
When everyone's under the gun
Just smile and hum along
So over it just a well-trained pet
The same old song
I can say
You were lost when you walked into the room
Such an old cliche
Hollywood's full of girls like you
With your backbone stuck inside your purse
Your fairy tale couldn't get much worse
You're a broken bride and we all know
We can win you over,
With just a kiss on the neck
You're blowing up like a hand grenade
Can't keep your foot on the brake
You're grinning big because you got it made
Such a colossal fake
When everyone's a smoking gun
Just smile and hum along
You'll never win with a black-toothed grin
You got it all wrong
I can say
You were lost when you walked into the room
Such an old cliche
Hollywood's full of girls like you
With your backbone stuck inside your purse
Your fairy tale couldn't get much worse
You're a broken bride, and we all know
We can win you over,
With just a kiss on the neck (kiss on the neck)
Oh
You're the sweetest thing I've seen
To think that you were meant for me
And I got just one thing to say,
With just a kiss on the neck
You can say
I was lost when I walked into the room
Such an old cliche
I can never get a girl like you
With my backbone stuck inside your purse
This fairy tale couldn't get much worse
I'm a broken man and you all know
You can win me over,
With just a kiss on the neck
Kiss on the neck
Put on a dress with some bite
Make up your skin like your favorite star
You're going out tonight
When everyone's under the gun
Just smile and hum along
So over it just a well-trained pet
The same old song
I can say
You were lost when you walked into the room
Such an old cliche
Hollywood's full of girls like you
With your backbone stuck inside your purse
Your fairy tale couldn't get much worse
You're a broken bride and we all know
We can win you over,
With just a kiss on the neck
You're blowing up like a hand grenade
Can't keep your foot on the brake
You're grinning big because you got it made
Such a colossal fake
When everyone's a smoking gun
Just smile and hum along
You'll never win with a black-toothed grin
You got it all wrong
I can say
You were lost when you walked into the room
Such an old cliche
Hollywood's full of girls like you
With your backbone stuck inside your purse
Your fairy tale couldn't get much worse
You're a broken bride, and we all know
We can win you over,
With just a kiss on the neck (kiss on the neck)
Oh
You're the sweetest thing I've seen
To think that you were meant for me
And I got just one thing to say,
With just a kiss on the neck
You can say
I was lost when I walked into the room
Such an old cliche
I can never get a girl like you
With my backbone stuck inside your purse
This fairy tale couldn't get much worse
I'm a broken man and you all know
You can win me over,
With just a kiss on the neck
Kiss on the neck
The Time Of My Life lyrics - David Cook
I’ve been waiting for my dreams
To turn into something
I could believe in
And looking for that
Magic rainbow
On the horizon
I couldn’t see it
Until I let go
Gave into love and watched all the bitterness burn
Now I’m coming alive
Body and soul
And feelin’ my world start to turn
And I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time
To be more than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life
Holding onto things that vanished
Into the air
Left me in pieces
But now I’m rising from the ashes
Finding my wings
And all that I needed
Was there all along
Within my reach
As close as the beat of my heart
So I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life
And I’m out on the edge of forever
Ready to run
I’m keeping my feet on the ground
My arms open wide
My face to the sun
I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
This is the time
This is the time of my life.
This is the time of my life.
To turn into something
I could believe in
And looking for that
Magic rainbow
On the horizon
I couldn’t see it
Until I let go
Gave into love and watched all the bitterness burn
Now I’m coming alive
Body and soul
And feelin’ my world start to turn
And I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time
To be more than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life
Holding onto things that vanished
Into the air
Left me in pieces
But now I’m rising from the ashes
Finding my wings
And all that I needed
Was there all along
Within my reach
As close as the beat of my heart
So I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life
And I’m out on the edge of forever
Ready to run
I’m keeping my feet on the ground
My arms open wide
My face to the sun
I’ll taste every moment
And live it out loud
I know this is the time,
This is the time to be
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
I know this is the time
This is the time of my life
Time of my life
More than a name
Or a face in the crowd
This is the time
This is the time of my life.
This is the time of my life.
My Last Request lyrics - David Cook
When your smile becomes the reason I breathe
And your eyes become the motive to see
But if it's better for your health
To say the love, it lives in someone else
And all that I can say
And all that I can say
Is she's my last request
Everything else is suddenly taken over
And I'm my own regret
And all that I wanted is out of my hands
Your thoughts of war, religion and love
Are the things that I recall when you're gone
And now I'm left without a clue
On where I stood in line when I lost you
And all that I can say
Yes all that I can say
Is she's my last request
Everything else is suddenly taken over
And I'm my own regret
And all that I wanted is out of my hands
Out of my Hands
When your smile becomes the reason I breathe
And your eyes become the motive to see
then all that I can say
Is she's my last request
Everything else is suddenly taken over
And I'm my own regret
And all that I wanted is out of my hands
Out of my Hands
She's my last request
And all that I wanted is out of my hands
And your eyes become the motive to see
But if it's better for your health
To say the love, it lives in someone else
And all that I can say
And all that I can say
Is she's my last request
Everything else is suddenly taken over
And I'm my own regret
And all that I wanted is out of my hands
Your thoughts of war, religion and love
Are the things that I recall when you're gone
And now I'm left without a clue
On where I stood in line when I lost you
And all that I can say
Yes all that I can say
Is she's my last request
Everything else is suddenly taken over
And I'm my own regret
And all that I wanted is out of my hands
Out of my Hands
When your smile becomes the reason I breathe
And your eyes become the motive to see
then all that I can say
Is she's my last request
Everything else is suddenly taken over
And I'm my own regret
And all that I wanted is out of my hands
Out of my Hands
She's my last request
And all that I wanted is out of my hands
Breathe Tonight lyrics - David Cook
You broke when I just bent
You cried; I never meant to break you down
This time, did I steal the best … of you?
Can you breathe tonight
As the air is leaving you?
Scream tonight
Like the words are new to you?
Can we go back to the last time my arms could carry you?
Breathe tonight
You’re alive
Lost; don’t leave me in the dark alone
Shine a light
Cause you’re the road that got me home
Cause I, I never knew that love was true
Did you?
Can you breathe tonight
As the air is leaving you?
Scream tonight
Like the words are new to you?
Can we go back to the last time my arms could carry you?
Breathe tonight
You’re alive
You broke when I just bent
Goodbye, But only if you’re over it
Can you breathe tonight
As the air is leaving you?
Scream tonight
Like the words are new to you?
Can we go back to the last time my arms could carry you?
Breathe tonight
You’re alive
You’re alive
You cried; I never meant to break you down
This time, did I steal the best … of you?
Can you breathe tonight
As the air is leaving you?
Scream tonight
Like the words are new to you?
Can we go back to the last time my arms could carry you?
Breathe tonight
You’re alive
Lost; don’t leave me in the dark alone
Shine a light
Cause you’re the road that got me home
Cause I, I never knew that love was true
Did you?
Can you breathe tonight
As the air is leaving you?
Scream tonight
Like the words are new to you?
Can we go back to the last time my arms could carry you?
Breathe tonight
You’re alive
You broke when I just bent
Goodbye, But only if you’re over it
Can you breathe tonight
As the air is leaving you?
Scream tonight
Like the words are new to you?
Can we go back to the last time my arms could carry you?
Breathe tonight
You’re alive
You’re alive
Straight Ahead lyrics - David Cook
I've got questions for you
You've got answers, untrue
I can walk these circles all night long
Take a pill to sleep off
Everything you can think of
Walking all these circles to a song
Could you play me something new?
So take a minute just to breathe
And think of everything you wanted
And what you got instead
Is it a labor just to see?
Around the left, the right, over my head
Just straight ahead
Find a new way to feel right
Between this and a fist fight
I can read the circles around your eyes
This is life, this is no rhyme
Find a beat, find the right time
To organize these circles to a song
Could you play me something new?
So take a minute just to breathe
And think of everything you wanted
And what you got instead
Is it a labor just to see?
Around the left, the right, over my head
Just straight ahead, yeah
So take a minute just to breathe
And think of everything you wanted
And what you got instead
So take a minute just to breathe
And think of everything you wanted
And what you got instead(what you got instead)
Is it a labor just to see?
Around the left, the right, over my head
Just straight ahead, yeah
You've got answers, untrue
I can walk these circles all night long
Take a pill to sleep off
Everything you can think of
Walking all these circles to a song
Could you play me something new?
So take a minute just to breathe
And think of everything you wanted
And what you got instead
Is it a labor just to see?
Around the left, the right, over my head
Just straight ahead
Find a new way to feel right
Between this and a fist fight
I can read the circles around your eyes
This is life, this is no rhyme
Find a beat, find the right time
To organize these circles to a song
Could you play me something new?
So take a minute just to breathe
And think of everything you wanted
And what you got instead
Is it a labor just to see?
Around the left, the right, over my head
Just straight ahead, yeah
So take a minute just to breathe
And think of everything you wanted
And what you got instead
So take a minute just to breathe
And think of everything you wanted
And what you got instead(what you got instead)
Is it a labor just to see?
Around the left, the right, over my head
Just straight ahead, yeah
Don't Say A Word lyrics - David Cook
Are you waiting for something?
'Cause there's a tension in the air
Of something unresolved
I can smell it in your hair
So step down
Look around
You could leave it all behind
Never hear another sound
Say you're holding on to someone
They'll never show you the same
So don't say a word
That I wouldn't say
Just crumble it up
And throw it away
We're just wasting time
We're taking up space
So don't say a word
That I wouldn't say to you
Are you breathing for nothing?
'Cause there's a vision in my eye
Of something unresolved
I swear it feels like this could die
I can see
To a degree
A broken back is always something
If you did it saving me
Say you're holding on to nothing
And it's showing all over your face (don't say a word)
So don't say a word
That I wouldn't say
Just crumble it up
And throw it away
We're just wasting time
We're taking up space
So don't say a word
That I wouldn't say to you
To you
So don't say a word
That I wouldn't say
Just crumble it up
And throw it away
We're just wasting time
We're taking up space
So don't say a word
That I wouldn't say to you
That I wouldn't say to you
That I wouldn't say to you
'Cause there's a tension in the air
Of something unresolved
I can smell it in your hair
So step down
Look around
You could leave it all behind
Never hear another sound
Say you're holding on to someone
They'll never show you the same
So don't say a word
That I wouldn't say
Just crumble it up
And throw it away
We're just wasting time
We're taking up space
So don't say a word
That I wouldn't say to you
Are you breathing for nothing?
'Cause there's a vision in my eye
Of something unresolved
I swear it feels like this could die
I can see
To a degree
A broken back is always something
If you did it saving me
Say you're holding on to nothing
And it's showing all over your face (don't say a word)
So don't say a word
That I wouldn't say
Just crumble it up
And throw it away
We're just wasting time
We're taking up space
So don't say a word
That I wouldn't say to you
To you
So don't say a word
That I wouldn't say
Just crumble it up
And throw it away
We're just wasting time
We're taking up space
So don't say a word
That I wouldn't say to you
That I wouldn't say to you
That I wouldn't say to you
Fall Back Into Me lyrics - David Cook
We've been here before
We'll be here again
So go on and rest your head
Before you lose it again
We're leaning on each other
Or at least I can pretend
That we didn't lose it all again
It could've been different
It could've all been the same
But now I'm standing at your front door singing
When everything's the same
And nothing ever changes
Will you fall back into me? Oh
You see, everything estranged
A million empty faces
So will you fall back into me?
Congratulations you left me
A little jaded and rejected
And so I lost it again
You chew me up, you throw away
As I continue to pretend
That we didn't lose it all again
I guess it's never different
I guess it's all the same
So now I'm bloodied by my fist clenched swinging
When everything's the same
And nothing ever changes
Will you fall back into me? Oh
You see, everything estranged
A million empty faces
So will you fall back into me?
I was a name across your lips
It's time to spin me out
I play the game where my heart rips
It's time to hear me out (Welcome to revenge)
When everything's the same
And nothing ever changes
Will you fall back into me?
You see, everything estranged
A million empty faces
So will you fall back into me?
We've been here before
We'll been here again
So go on and rest your head
Before you lose it again
We're leaning on each other
Or at least I can pretend
That we didn't lose it all again
All again, lose it all again
We'll be here again
So go on and rest your head
Before you lose it again
We're leaning on each other
Or at least I can pretend
That we didn't lose it all again
It could've been different
It could've all been the same
But now I'm standing at your front door singing
When everything's the same
And nothing ever changes
Will you fall back into me? Oh
You see, everything estranged
A million empty faces
So will you fall back into me?
Congratulations you left me
A little jaded and rejected
And so I lost it again
You chew me up, you throw away
As I continue to pretend
That we didn't lose it all again
I guess it's never different
I guess it's all the same
So now I'm bloodied by my fist clenched swinging
When everything's the same
And nothing ever changes
Will you fall back into me? Oh
You see, everything estranged
A million empty faces
So will you fall back into me?
I was a name across your lips
It's time to spin me out
I play the game where my heart rips
It's time to hear me out (Welcome to revenge)
When everything's the same
And nothing ever changes
Will you fall back into me?
You see, everything estranged
A million empty faces
So will you fall back into me?
We've been here before
We'll been here again
So go on and rest your head
Before you lose it again
We're leaning on each other
Or at least I can pretend
That we didn't lose it all again
All again, lose it all again
The Truth lyrics - David Cook
Two steps removed from everything I thought I knew
There's no remedy
I see your face in everything single thing I do
You change me
Your laugh intoxicating
One touch and I'm negating
Everything around
Take me and I'm yours
I only want you anymore
I kiss the ground
If you want to know the truth
You make or break my day
If you want to know the truth
I wouldn't have it any other way
I rest my head from running circles around my mind
On why you let go
No answers to be found, the rest is on rewind
I guess I'll never know
Why your absence is devastating
No touch to calm my hating
Everyone around
Leave me when I'm yours
'Cause you don't want me anymore
I hit the ground, yeah
If you want to know the truth
You make or break my day
If you want to know the truth
I wouldn't have it any other way
If you want to know the truth
You make or break my day
If you want to know the truth
I wouldn't have it any other way
If you want to know the truth
You make or break my day
If you want to know the truth
I wouldn't have it any other way
Any other way
(If you want to know the truth
You make or break my day)
Any other way
(If you want to know the truth
You make or break my day)
Any other way
There's no remedy
I see your face in everything single thing I do
You change me
Your laugh intoxicating
One touch and I'm negating
Everything around
Take me and I'm yours
I only want you anymore
I kiss the ground
If you want to know the truth
You make or break my day
If you want to know the truth
I wouldn't have it any other way
I rest my head from running circles around my mind
On why you let go
No answers to be found, the rest is on rewind
I guess I'll never know
Why your absence is devastating
No touch to calm my hating
Everyone around
Leave me when I'm yours
'Cause you don't want me anymore
I hit the ground, yeah
If you want to know the truth
You make or break my day
If you want to know the truth
I wouldn't have it any other way
If you want to know the truth
You make or break my day
If you want to know the truth
I wouldn't have it any other way
If you want to know the truth
You make or break my day
If you want to know the truth
I wouldn't have it any other way
Any other way
(If you want to know the truth
You make or break my day)
Any other way
(If you want to know the truth
You make or break my day)
Any other way
Searchlights lyrics - David Cook
Where did you hide yourself
For these searchlights are growing dim
I know this isn't much to recollect
Better now to close this puppet show
And say that it's the end
But for me,
Could you ready yourself
And hold on for a moment?
Just for me,
Could you bury it all
And hold on to this moment?
You made me fall forever
With no end in sight
When everything around is broken
Could you say that this felt right?
You are, for contradiction's sake,
Everything I remember that I swore I'd forget
You life has served you well
But everyone around has perished
From this fire that you've lit
Under me
I can ready myself
To hold on for a moment
Lock and key,
Trying to bury it all
And begin in this moment
You made me fall forever
With no end in sight
When everything around is broken
Could you say that this felt right?
You made me fall forever
With no end in sight
When everything around is broken
Could you say that this felt right?
You made me fall forever
With no end in sight
When everything around is broken
Could you say that this felt right?
Say it felt right
Say it felt right
Say it felt right
Say it felt right
For these searchlights are growing dim
I know this isn't much to recollect
Better now to close this puppet show
And say that it's the end
But for me,
Could you ready yourself
And hold on for a moment?
Just for me,
Could you bury it all
And hold on to this moment?
You made me fall forever
With no end in sight
When everything around is broken
Could you say that this felt right?
You are, for contradiction's sake,
Everything I remember that I swore I'd forget
You life has served you well
But everyone around has perished
From this fire that you've lit
Under me
I can ready myself
To hold on for a moment
Lock and key,
Trying to bury it all
And begin in this moment
You made me fall forever
With no end in sight
When everything around is broken
Could you say that this felt right?
You made me fall forever
With no end in sight
When everything around is broken
Could you say that this felt right?
You made me fall forever
With no end in sight
When everything around is broken
Could you say that this felt right?
Say it felt right
Say it felt right
Say it felt right
Say it felt right
Porcelain lyrics - David Cook
I'll see what you want me to see
Through rose-colored glasses
I can't see the blood in my hand
Now you're over, you're so over
All over my head
I pray to God I find my way
Back to something familiar
Please tear me from this contraband
Now it's over, it's so over
It's under my bed
The paint is worn pale
Your eyes have started fading
Were they ever even really there
Nothing to give with everything you take
The cracks in your smile make it impossible
To decipher something legible
Your porcelain face and a heart of glass
No time for dependency
We're going over at light speed
No scenery to stimulate
Something older, we grow older
But nothing ever seems to change
I pray to God you lose your way
You're something peculiar
On one leg only I'll still take a stand
I fall over, a tall order
These times I need to rearrange
The paint is worn pale
Your eyes have started fading
Were they ever even really there
Nothing to give with everything you take
The cracks in your smile make it impossible
To decipher something legible
Your porcelain face and a heart of glass
The paint is worn pale
Your eyes have started fading
Were they ever even really there
Nothing to give with everything you take
The cracks in your smile make it impossible
To decipher something legible
Your porcelain face and a heart of glass
A heart of glass
A heart of glass
Through rose-colored glasses
I can't see the blood in my hand
Now you're over, you're so over
All over my head
I pray to God I find my way
Back to something familiar
Please tear me from this contraband
Now it's over, it's so over
It's under my bed
The paint is worn pale
Your eyes have started fading
Were they ever even really there
Nothing to give with everything you take
The cracks in your smile make it impossible
To decipher something legible
Your porcelain face and a heart of glass
No time for dependency
We're going over at light speed
No scenery to stimulate
Something older, we grow older
But nothing ever seems to change
I pray to God you lose your way
You're something peculiar
On one leg only I'll still take a stand
I fall over, a tall order
These times I need to rearrange
The paint is worn pale
Your eyes have started fading
Were they ever even really there
Nothing to give with everything you take
The cracks in your smile make it impossible
To decipher something legible
Your porcelain face and a heart of glass
The paint is worn pale
Your eyes have started fading
Were they ever even really there
Nothing to give with everything you take
The cracks in your smile make it impossible
To decipher something legible
Your porcelain face and a heart of glass
A heart of glass
A heart of glass
Stitches lyrics - David Cook
This countdown
To the day of departure has slowly been eating away
It's a meltdown
It's a personal torture I never saw coming my way
I try to breathe deep
I try to find sleep
I try holding on to the same old song
Just because of a brand new verse
And I found what I always wanted
As she walked away
And I ran aground with this wound untreated
Let it wash away
So keep slipping
I continue to try in vain just to pinpoint an answer
I keep tripping
On the same damn wire and no one came tumbling after
Crawl back in reverse
Wash off this new verse
Then keep holding on to the same tired song
'cause from here it will only get worse
And I found what I always wanted
As she walked away
And I ran aground with this wound untreated
Let it wash away
Stitch me up (stitch me up)
And bleed me out
(It's over)
Stitch me up (stitch me up)
And bleed me out
(It's over)
Stitch me up (stitch me up)
And bleed me out
(It's over)
Stitch me up (stitch me up)
And bleed me out
I found what I always wanted
As she walked away
And I ran aground with this wound untreated
Let it wash away, let it wash away
To the day of departure has slowly been eating away
It's a meltdown
It's a personal torture I never saw coming my way
I try to breathe deep
I try to find sleep
I try holding on to the same old song
Just because of a brand new verse
And I found what I always wanted
As she walked away
And I ran aground with this wound untreated
Let it wash away
So keep slipping
I continue to try in vain just to pinpoint an answer
I keep tripping
On the same damn wire and no one came tumbling after
Crawl back in reverse
Wash off this new verse
Then keep holding on to the same tired song
'cause from here it will only get worse
And I found what I always wanted
As she walked away
And I ran aground with this wound untreated
Let it wash away
Stitch me up (stitch me up)
And bleed me out
(It's over)
Stitch me up (stitch me up)
And bleed me out
(It's over)
Stitch me up (stitch me up)
And bleed me out
(It's over)
Stitch me up (stitch me up)
And bleed me out
I found what I always wanted
As she walked away
And I ran aground with this wound untreated
Let it wash away, let it wash away
Let Go lyrics - David Cook
I got a happy trigger finger
And I know not to let it linger
This moment is potent
'cause I'm feeling a transition
From the city of tradition
One action: reaction
Has it been that long since you opened up your eyes
To look out below
'cause it'll hit you when you're not watching
I don't know why you won't let go
So let go
A release of some proportion
The event is set in motion
This white line is defined
So take your hands away from my eyes
'cause you can't escape the sunrise
One action: reaction
Has it been that long since you opened up your eyes
To look out below
'cause it'll hit you when you're not watching
I don't know why you won't let go
So let go, let go
Has it been that long since you opened up your eyes
To look out below
'cause it'll hit you when you're not watching
I don't know why you won't let go
So let go, let go
And I know not to let it linger
This moment is potent
'cause I'm feeling a transition
From the city of tradition
One action: reaction
Has it been that long since you opened up your eyes
To look out below
'cause it'll hit you when you're not watching
I don't know why you won't let go
So let go
A release of some proportion
The event is set in motion
This white line is defined
So take your hands away from my eyes
'cause you can't escape the sunrise
One action: reaction
Has it been that long since you opened up your eyes
To look out below
'cause it'll hit you when you're not watching
I don't know why you won't let go
So let go, let go
Has it been that long since you opened up your eyes
To look out below
'cause it'll hit you when you're not watching
I don't know why you won't let go
So let go, let go
Makeover lyrics - David Cook
Completely colorblind, these red lights are going unseen
Fall behind with words unsaid you know they're always obscene
'cause my ears, they bled before; I need to let them heal
She fell out; her broken legs won't let her walk away
From this town that couldn't give a single shit either way
And her fears, they bled before she's convinced that they're real
What are you looking for?
Are you looking for something more?
It's not me
It's not me
Lost her way from everything she swore she knew, a friend
Run away from start to finish though it never ends
In her mind she is blinded by all she sees
Close your eyes; just pretend the bullet isn't there
No surprise; no need to pretend that no one really even cares
But in her eyes you will find the very best in me
What are you looking for?
Are you looking for something more?
It's not me
It's not me
When did it all unwind?
Are you prepared for you'll find?
It's not me
It's not me
Fall behind with words unsaid you know they're always obscene
'cause my ears, they bled before; I need to let them heal
She fell out; her broken legs won't let her walk away
From this town that couldn't give a single shit either way
And her fears, they bled before she's convinced that they're real
What are you looking for?
Are you looking for something more?
It's not me
It's not me
Lost her way from everything she swore she knew, a friend
Run away from start to finish though it never ends
In her mind she is blinded by all she sees
Close your eyes; just pretend the bullet isn't there
No surprise; no need to pretend that no one really even cares
But in her eyes you will find the very best in me
What are you looking for?
Are you looking for something more?
It's not me
It's not me
When did it all unwind?
Are you prepared for you'll find?
It's not me
It's not me
Silver lyrics - David Cook
When writing you're history,
I will always be a footnote
A distant memory
A warning sign of mistakes made
The kind that you learn from
This song is the best of me
Taking pills for solemn motive
A better side of me, an open mind
For mistakes made
The kind that you burn from
So take this small confession as my price to pay
I've never been the kind to let go
But before you up and walk away
I'm miserable without you, you know
This silver leaves me longing for gold
Second place has never carried me home
Second place has never carried me home
This song is so out of key
I'm trying harder just to even
These memories of you
A warning sign of regression
The kind you never learn from
This song is the melody
Meant to show you a little more than
A better history, an open sky
Of redemption
The kind you always burn from
So take this small confession as my price to pay
I've never been the kind to let go
But before you up and walk away
I'm miserable without you, you know
This silver leaves me burning for gold
Second place has never carried me home
Second place has never carried me (home, home, home, home)
It never carried me (home, home, home, home)
I will always be a footnote
A distant memory
A warning sign of mistakes made
The kind that you learn from
This song is the best of me
Taking pills for solemn motive
A better side of me, an open mind
For mistakes made
The kind that you burn from
So take this small confession as my price to pay
I've never been the kind to let go
But before you up and walk away
I'm miserable without you, you know
This silver leaves me longing for gold
Second place has never carried me home
Second place has never carried me home
This song is so out of key
I'm trying harder just to even
These memories of you
A warning sign of regression
The kind you never learn from
This song is the melody
Meant to show you a little more than
A better history, an open sky
Of redemption
The kind you always burn from
So take this small confession as my price to pay
I've never been the kind to let go
But before you up and walk away
I'm miserable without you, you know
This silver leaves me burning for gold
Second place has never carried me home
Second place has never carried me (home, home, home, home)
It never carried me (home, home, home, home)
Always Be My Baby lyrics - David Cook
(originally by Mariah Carey)
We were as one babe
For a moment in time
And it seemed everlasting
That you would always be mine
Now you want to be free
So I'm letting you fly
Cause I know in my heart babe
Our love will never die
No!
You'll always be a part of me
I'm a part of you indefinitely
Girl don't you know you can't escape me
Ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby
And we'll linger on
Time can't erase a feeling this strong
No way you're never gonna shake me
Ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby
I ain't gonna cry no
And I won't beg you to stay
If you're determined to leave girl
I will not stand in your way
But inevitably you'll be back again
Cause ya know in your heart babe
Our love will never end no
You'll always be a part of me
I'm part of you indefinitely
Girl don't you know you can't escape me
Ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby
And we'll linger on
Time can't erase a feeling this strong
No way you're never gonna shake me
Ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby
I know that you'll be back girl
When your days and your nights get a little bit colder oooohhh
I know that, you'll be right back, babe
Ooooh! baby believe me it's only a matter of time
You'll always be a part of me
I'm part of you indefinitely
Girl don't you know you can't escape me
Ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby
And we'll linger on
Time can't erase a feeling this strong
No way you're never gonna shake me
Ooh darling cause you'll always be my my baby....
You'll always be a part of me (you will always be)
I'm part of you indefinitely
Girl don't you know you can't escape me
Ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby
And we'll linger on (we will linger on....)
Time can't erase a feeling this strong
No way you're never gonna shake me
Ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby
Always be my baby
We were as one babe
For a moment in time
And it seemed everlasting
That you would always be mine
Now you want to be free
So I'm letting you fly
Cause I know in my heart babe
Our love will never die
No!
You'll always be a part of me
I'm a part of you indefinitely
Girl don't you know you can't escape me

Don't You (Forget About Me) lyrics - David Cook
(originally by Simple Minds)
Hey, hey, hey ,hey
Ohhh...
Won't you come see about me?
I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby
Tell me your troubles and doubts
Giving me everything inside and out and
Love's strange so real in the dark
Think of the tender things that we were working on
Slow change may pull us apart
When the light gets into your heart, baby
Don't You Forget About Me
Don't Don't Don't Don't
Don't You Forget About Me
Will you stand above me?
Look my way, never love me
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down
Will you recognise me?
Call my name or walk on by
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down, down
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Ohhhh.....
Don't you try to pretend
It's my feeling we'll win in the end
I won't harm you or touch your defenses
Vanity and security
Don't you forget about me
I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby
Going to take you apart
I'll put us back together at heart, baby
Don't You Forget About Me
Don't Don't Don't Don't
Don't You Forget About Me
As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
When you walk away
Or will you walk away?
Will you walk on by?
Come on - call my name
Will you all my name?
I say :
La la la...
Hey, hey, hey ,hey
Ohhh...
Won't you come see about me?
I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby
Tell me your troubles and doubts
Giving me everything inside and out and
Love's strange so real in the dark
Think of the tender things that we were working on
Slow change may pull us apart
When the light gets into your heart, baby
Don't You Forget About Me
Don't Don't Don't Don't
Don't You Forget About Me
Will you stand above me?
Look my way, never love me
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down
Will you recognise me?
Call my name or walk on by
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down, down
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Ohhhh.....
Don't you try to pretend
It's my feeling we'll win in the end
I won't harm you or touch your defenses
Vanity and security
Don't you forget about me
I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby
Going to take you apart
I'll put us back together at heart, baby
Don't You Forget About Me
Don't Don't Don't Don't
Don't You Forget About Me
As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
When you walk away
Or will you walk away?
Will you walk on by?
Come on - call my name
Will you all my name?
I say :
La la la...
The Last Song I'll Write For You lyrics - David Cook
I can tell something’s not the same
Cause we’re both losing at the loving game
We’re hanging from words and your tongue is on fire
And I can’t keep putting out the flames
There was a time when you could tell the world
That you, you knew I would fight for you
You knew I would fight for you
But now I know that I can let you go
Cause I wrote the last song I’ll write for you
The last song I’ll write for you
I’ve been waiting just to feel this way
Where my night’s not made by every day
That you ever had, the good and the bad cause I
I’m through calling out your name
There was a time when you could tell the world
That you, you knew I would fight for you
You knew I would fight for you
But now I know that I can let you go
Cause I wrote the last song I’ll write for you
The last song I’ll write for you
We’re just drifting apart
Two beats in two different hearts
Before I say goodnight, I want you to know
There was a time when you could tell the world
That you, you knew I would fight for you
You knew I would fight for you
But now I know that I can let you go
Cause I wrote the last song I’ll write for you
The last song I’ll write for you
Now I know that I can let you go
Cause I wrote the last song I’ll write for you
This is the last song I’ll write for you
Cause we’re both losing at the loving game
We’re hanging from words and your tongue is on fire
And I can’t keep putting out the flames
There was a time when you could tell the world
That you, you knew I would fight for you
You knew I would fight for you
But now I know that I can let you go
Cause I wrote the last song I’ll write for you
The last song I’ll write for you
I’ve been waiting just to feel this way
Where my night’s not made by every day
That you ever had, the good and the bad cause I
I’m through calling out your name
There was a time when you could tell the world
That you, you knew I would fight for you
You knew I would fight for you
But now I know that I can let you go
Cause I wrote the last song I’ll write for you
The last song I’ll write for you
We’re just drifting apart
Two beats in two different hearts
Before I say goodnight, I want you to know
There was a time when you could tell the world
That you, you knew I would fight for you
You knew I would fight for you
But now I know that I can let you go
Cause I wrote the last song I’ll write for you
The last song I’ll write for you
Now I know that I can let you go
Cause I wrote the last song I’ll write for you
This is the last song I’ll write for you
