Unison

Verse 1
Life is so much better
Knowing that you are by my side
I feel comfortable around you
There's no reason to run and hide
I tell you what I'm thinking about
You show me how you're feeling
I give you time and comfort
You show understanding and compassion
When I wake up in the morning
You are the first thought on my mind
That is the best part of my day

Verse 2
To me, you are many things
My soul mate, my honey, my baby
I place my trust in you
Knowing that I can count on you
My imagination runs wild
Just thinking about you and I
There is nothing that we can't do
That's how much I believe in us
Whenever I'm away from home
You are the only thought on my mind
That is how much I miss you

Bridge
You have saved me from a life of loneliness
And I have inspired you to reach your potential

Chorus 1
We are in unison
I know what you want
You give me what I need
There is nothing that I would change about us
I like it when you look at me
You tell me that I'm beautiful
You are my protector keeping me safe and secure
We are in unison
I love you and you love me

Chorus 2
We are in unison
I know what you want
You give me what I need
There is nothing that I would change about us
I like it when you look at me
You tell me that I'm beautiful
You are my protector keeping me safe and secure

Under Suspicion

Verse 1
Privacy no longer exist for me
My life is like an open book
Everything that I do is monitored and analyzed
Whether I like it or not
I'm afraid of doing something wrong
If I do, I will be punished

Verse 2
Sometimes I know exactly when they are staring at me
I can feel their presence
Even when they're not in the same room as me
When I go to sleep
I'm almost afraid of even dreaming

Bridge
I've been accused of breaking the law
I know that I have done no such thing
Nobody believes me when I tell them
I'm even starting to think that I'm guilty

Chorus 1
I know that I'm under suspicion
Every move I make is being watched closely
Every single word that I utter is being listened to
I'm living under a microscope

Chorus 2
I know that I'm under suspicion
Many of my freedoms are limited
This nightmare is lasting longer than I thought
Clearing my name seems to be impossible

Tomorrow Will Come

Verse 1
Tomorrow will come
And all of your worries will be confronted
And all of your tears will evaporate

Verse 2
Tomorrow will be better than today
Because you will make it that way
All of your anger will be healed
And all of your discomfort will cease to exist

Bridge
You will overcome the pain that you're feeling
And you will be able to embrace life with open arms
Start believing that you are meant to live
Because you are

Chorus 1
When you're at the bottom, you feel like dying
You're confused, sad, and lonely
But tomorrow will come and things will change
You will be optimistic about your entire future
Life will be worth living
Because after every storm a rainbow appears
So just hang on

Chorus 2
Life is always worth living
Because after every storm a rainbow appears
So just hang on with all your might
Tomorrow will come and things will change

Out of The Blue

Verse 1
As long as I could remember
I was mostly sad
I would cry out for no apparent reason
When I wasn't alone, I felt lonely
When friends wanted to hang out
I avoided their company

Verse 2
I felt like I was carrying the weight of the world
It bogged me down deeper into the ground
Sometimes I would fear for my life
Because I was afraid that I would end it
Other times I didn't have an ounce of self-love

Bridge
I can feel myself breathe
I can think clearly
Nobody knows what I went through
If they did, they would be surprised
I can't even believe it myself

Chorus 1
I am out of the blue
Suddenly I found something new
Something that I didn't know
It was hidden away a long time ago
The brightness that permeates around me
Overshadows the darkness that filled my heart

Chorus 2
I am out of the blue
I've become someone new
There is now light in my life

Some Girls

Verse 1
Some girls want daddy's attention
Some girls need his affection
They yearn and strive for both
But they are neglected
Some girls act out in the worst way
With drugs, sex, and alcohol
Throw in a bit of rock and roll
And that is the worst mix
Some girls wish that they were still a child
Because they can't handle the pressure of being a teenager

Verse 2
Some girls think that they are fat
Some girls think they're ugly
The media ans society present false body images
Some develop eating disorders
Some exercise to the extreme
And some commit suicide
Thinking that's the solution
Some girls wish that they had a friend
Because there is no one that they can relate to
That they can confide in

Bridge
Some girls wish that they could just be happy
Some girls wish that they were seen as being normal
Some girls just want to live

Chorus 1
Some girls end up on the streets
Selling themselves for money
They get into a cycle of abuse
And have a hard time getting out
Some are damaged beyond repair
Some need to be saved from themselves
They are tired and scared, they are lonely
Some don't know where to turn for help
Some of these girls might have been an acquaintance to you
Some of these girls might even be related to you

Chorus 2
Some girls end up on the streets
Selling themselves for money
They get into a cycle of abuse
And have a hard time getting out
Some are damaged beyond repair
Some need to be saved from themselves
They are tired and scared, they are lonely
Some don't know where to turn for help
Some of these girls might have been an acquaintance to you
Some of these girls might even be related to you
Some of these girls work with you every day
Some of these girls go to church
And kneel down and pray for a better life

Hard To Be Good

Verse 1
Sometimes it's hard for me to be good
When people get in my face, I lose my temper
I try to be a better person
And whenever I am not, I try again
Up until this point, I have yet to succeed

Verse 2
Sometimes I take things that aren't mine
And if I don't return them
It's because I lost them
I talk behind people's back
I say negative things about them
Some are even lies
Maybe that's why I don't have any friends

Bridge
Improving myself is what I'm trying to do
But it is harder than I thought
Being mean is part of me
Causing trouble is what I do
Being good is what I've never been

Chorus 1
It is hard for me to be good
Because it's easier to be rude
I am shy bordering on anti-social
I'm working on being more approachable
It's a continuous process

Chorus 2
It is hard for me to be good
Because it's easier to be rude
I am shy bordering on anti-social
I'm working on being more approachable
It's a never ending process

Imagination

Verse 1
Imagination, sweet imagination
During the day I get lost in my mind
Hours go by with thoughts in my head
I know I should be doing work instead
But I feel so good whenever I'm dreaming

Verse 2
Imagination, cool imagination
During the evening I dance upon the stars
Hours go by with thoughts in my head
I know I should be sleeping instead
But I feel so lucky whenever I'm dreaming
Imagination, wonderful imagination
I am inspired to try something new
Hours go by with thoughts in my bed
I know I should be with friends instead
But I feel so blessed whenever I'm dreaming

Bridge
I close my eyes, then visions appear in my mind
Some are so clear that they seem very real to me
I'm walking on clouds, swimming with the dolphins
Or spending my time with you
Imagination takes me on an unforgettable journey

Chorus
I am taken far away to a magical place
And I hope that you'll join me sooner or later
You don't know what I'm going through
When I'm thinking about you
Sometimes I would even forget just where I am
I can take a trip around the world
Then fly to the moon
I can do anything with imagination

Out of Control

Verse 1
The other day you made fun of me
Your attitude was disrespectful
So I walked to your car
With a baseball bat in hand
I took a swing and smashed your headlights
You knew I had done it
So you called the police
A week after that I was feeling like a dog in heat
I had to deposit my load before I went crazy
I went searching for an attractive person
Who was more than willing to get me off
I found that person I was looking for
And we did the deed
Hot and raw as if we were animals

Verse 2
On occasion you curse like a sailor
That's only if you're really pissed off
The other times you are mean and crass
Speaking your mind is what you always do
You don't care about the people you hurt
You don't realize that your words are like weapons
They maim and they injure
They jab and they cut
It's like you're fighting a battle against everyone
You feed off arguments
To you, it's a source of energy
Your words do more harm than good

Bridge
Why can't I have more control?
Why can't I be more stable?
Why can't you have more control?
Why can't you be more responsible?
Why can't we have more control?
Why can't we have more power over our actions?
I am out of control
You are out of control

Chorus
I am out of control
I do whatever I want whenever I want
You are out of control
You say whatever you want whenever you want
Ways to reclaim control take awhile
And we are impatient

Together Again

Verse 1
The last time that I saw you
You had a smile on your face
And a twinkle in your eyes
I didn't forget the way you looked
Since you left, I had been tired
I had been broken
The only thing that I wanted was to be with you

Verse 2
The last time that you saw me
I had a smile on my face
And a twinkle in my eyes
I hope that you didn't forget about me
Since I left, you had been unhappy
You had been lonely
The only person that you needed was me

Bridge
This is the moment I've been waiting for
We are together again

Chorus
We are together again
And we vow to never separate
We spent too much time apart
And now we are reconnecting
I feel like a new person
When you are in my arms
Now that I have found you
I will not let you go

I Want To Tell You

Verse 1
Every time when you show affection to me
I turn you away saying that I'm not in the mood
I always thin that I am better than you
Understanding your feelings is complicating and exhausting

Verse 2
Pushing you away is like slapping you in the face
And putting you down is like kicking you in the gut
I am hurting inside, I want you to feel the same way
Withholding many things from you is what I have always done
I find it hard to trust you

Bridge
Half of me is consumed with anger
The other half remains despondent
I don't know how to give you what you need
Without being the person that I am

Chorus
I want to tell you
That I don't love you
Even though I said I did
I want to tell you
That I don't want to be with you
Even though I promised that I would
I want to tell you so many things
