--- Thru Elder Eyes ---
as i sit and talk to you
and realize what you've been thru
the many years and experiences that life has thrown at you
and times have changed with the way people live
it's just not the same
i wasn't brought up that way
and when you talk about the past
the way things were how life has changed
i hang on every word
cuz i know someday
i will feel the same
i'm sure i will feel the same
the stories of the good times
the tales of hard times and the loses to the hand of greed... you said boy times have changed with the way people live
it's just not the same
my parents would never let me turn out that way!
and when you talk about the past
the way things were and how life has changed
i hang on every word
cuz i know someday i'll feel the same
and when you say it's not the same
the little things that are different today
i take for granted everything cuz i know tomorrow... tomorrow's another day... thru elder eyes

i heard the news today
were things that bad had it come to this
why did you resort to that?
i guess its up to you to live with regret
you'll pay the price
they'll never let you forget
can't help but to think something i could have said
something i could have done
to change these things you have done
i heard the news today
it took my breath away
i can't believe you took a life that way...
with all the memories we had shared
i can't believe you threw it all away
threw it away
threw it away...
you threw it all away
people change
we all change
we gotta change!!
--- What We've Become ---
take your time and come again
i'll be here with open arms
we came alive in 1991
when nothing in our eyes was old
we set it straight that we will never change
never really knowing who had control
old friend my heart
lets set aside what we've become
you stand for one
I'll stand for rock -n-roll
and that alone will heal your soul
(what we've become)
now time has passed
its getting late
we surely paved ourselves in change
but don't forget that i won't forget
those times you blessed me with your ways
i wish that everything wouldn't change
i wish that everything could've stayed the same
it will never be to late...
--- State of The Art ---
looking back in the rear view mirror
trying not to let time pass me by
everything is so much clearer
now i'm old enough to realize what's at stake
when will it begin
how will it end
why do you feel out of touch
why do you feel down on your luck
when will you realize that time is the cure for all your pain and you must go on living everyday
i remember a time when you couldn't see
i remember a time when you couldn't believe
you've got to feel like nothing will ever be the same again where do we go from here
both paths to choose unclear
why do you feel out of touch
why do you feel down on your luck
you've got to realize that time is the cure for all your pain and you must go on living everyday
i remember a time when you were in need
i remember a time when you fell to your knees
you've got to feel like nothing will ever be the same again lookin back in the rear view mirror
trying not to let time pass me by
everything is so much clearer
now i'm old enough to realize whats at stake...
what's at stake...
couldn't be what you wanted me to be
couldn't be what you wanted...
--- Bartlett ---
everyday everyday when we were young
thats were we played
where we played and had some fun
they took it away
took it away cuz some where dumb
they took it away
now theres none
you can't take it away
for some mistake a kid made
we're not to blame
but we'll suffer the same
we're not to blame but we will suffer anyways
just lookin for an excuse to keep us down
they don't like places where everyone hangsout
where are your childern now
in the streets all over town
i hope you're happy now
where will we go
what will we do
we will suffer for things we didn't do
where will they go
what will they do
all the kids left behind with nothing better to do...
--- Everywhere But Here ---
as i take this walk of life
you know i've never come to peace
a constant wanting of that dream
to fly and get right out of here
i run in place
all i ever wanted was to sing these songs to you
all you ever did was turn away
at home but never quite at home
i've lost my way
put me down for angels wings
i'd love to hear them sing
that would take away the pain
so if you ask me how i am
how are you?
everywhere but here my friend is where i want to be!
thats nice, who are you?
there is a world out there that will never feel the same
i try but the bitterness remains
i hope you get to meet the stars
i know you'll be amazed
if you ever think of me
i hope you'll save a seat
oh no, there i go again
i want to have a change of heart
i want to fix the things that are tearing me apart
--- Rebound ---
looking down on myself in the mirror
as its looking back at me
i don't see what i want to see
so how can i believe in myself
look what its done to me
look at what you have done to me
life isn't always what you make it
so don't just wait around and try and fake it
you won't fool no one but yourself
you won't be able to blame no one else
how will i make it thru each day
some how i'll find a way to make it thru this maze
my life it complicates
you said you can't feel that way
that life had led you astray
you said you'd be there for me
but that doesn't seem to be reality
believe me i'm not alone
there's still love for me at home
just cuz you're not around
i won't let that keep me down
you let me down...
i'll pick myself back up again
--- Alliance ---
it would be nice for once in my life
to have you on my side not in direct competition
don't you realize you can't do this on your own
it's time to divide control
with these lessons we learn
i don't want the bridge to burn
it was just a matter of time before you realized
if we try we'll make it
just a matter of time for the wounds to mend
hopefully you'll see we can make it work togther
--- We Will Be Strong ---
How many times has it blown up in your face
to bring tears of sadness
how many times did you think you went too far
how many times were you backed down by your fears
you just turned and walked away
how many times have you had a broken heart
how many times have you felt that you were lost
in this world of madness
how many times have you felt like you could die
how many times have you watched the falling rain
of the dreams you gave up
how many friends have you had to wish goodbye
I can't relate to these matters at hand
we try so hard to do the best we can
please take my hand
I 'll always be there
we will be strong
so many things that i wish i'd never said
and i will always regret
so many things that i wish i'd never done
so many friends that i wish i didn't miss but i will never forget
so many times i have wished it was my turn
i can't relate to these matters at hand
we try so hard to do the best that we can
please take my hand
i'll always be there
we will be strong to do the best that we can
the best that we can
day in day out
i will survie with strength in my faith
i will get by
--- Somtimes ---
we live in vain
we feel the strain
it seems theres nothing left to give
we're sick to death
we're sick of life
it seems its trying to get us down
sometimes this life just gets to me
when i think of the times i turned away
sometimes this life just gets to me
when i think of the chances i didn't take
we'll carry on
the only way we know how
we've had good times
we've had bad and yet we have lived them day by day
we've gained some friends and lost some too
most we'll miss i am sad to say
sometimes this life just gets to me
when i think of the time that was poorly spent
sometimes this life just gets to me
when i think of the things i could've been
i could've been
we'll carry on the only way we know how
