Baby come over, come close and tell me what’s on your mind We can get over anything in good time Stack up the issues, piled up so high I stood outside, waiting for your red lights to change Caught in a landslide, I’d still yell out your name We push our limits to the limit Pulling ourselves deeper down in it Don’t let go, don’t let go, don’t let go Don’t run away You can run but never hide the pain When your heart keeps racing but you can’t keep up the chasin’ Don’t turn your back on us Follow me I will teach you how to live life free Come on baby we’re addicted Me and you we’re on a mission Don’t turn your back on us Baby look out there, we got the whole world to explore Let’s do it together, figure out what’s in store Learn to be reborn, Learn to be complete Don’t let go, don’t let go, don’t let go Don’t run away You can run but never hide the pain When your heart keeps racing but you can’t keep up the chasin’ Don’t turn your back on us Follow me I will teach you how to live life free Come on baby we’re addicted Me and you we’re on a mission Don’t turn your back on us Come on baby reach up just a little bit higher (higher, higher) Grab a hold I won’t let go Don’t look down just keep on climbing (climbing) When your at the top you’ll know ‘Cause I’ll be right here Don’t run Don’t run When your heart Don’t turn your back on us Follow me I will teach you how to live life free Come on baby we’re addicted Me and you we’re on a mission Don’t turn your back on us

Begin Again 03:49
I wish I could bottle up this feeling Send it down the river I wish I had the words to say I’d come up with something clever I wish I could move and go unnoticed Not so plain to see Like a picture out of focus Though it’s right in front of me How do I face another day when I can’t take it? How do I turn another page when I’m faking? How do I package up the pain when I can’t shake it? It’s over now How do I begin again? I haven’t always been this bitter I haven’t always loved the rain I used to sit and watch the sunset ‘til it rose up again People passing by me now I’m lost out in the crowd I’m not asking for a second back I just want a way out How do I face another day when I can’t take it? How do I turn another page when I’m faking? How do I package up the pain when I can’t shake it? It’s over now How do I begin again? It’s been a hard fought battle Don’t want to quit while I’m behind Pouring salt in all my open wounds I’m cut back down to size How do I face another day when I can’t take it? How do I turn another page when I’m faking? How do I package up the pain when I can’t shake it? It’s over now How do I begin again? How do I never fall apart when I’m breaking? How do I catch a falling star when I’m through chasing? Somebody point me to the start In case it’s not over now How do I begin again?

The Only One 04:31
Just when you think you know What the problem is Your inner monologue is starting to show You don’t notice Run out of alibis Own up to it But you know you can’t Need a change of plans You fall to pieces Now you know Backed up against the wall Surrounded Nothing’s ever made you feel so small So grounded, you wanna fly But you know you can’t Need a change of plans You fall behind Now you know Don’t run from yourself Wish you were somewhere else Hold your head high Going against the grain and every promise But you know you can’t Need a change of plans You fall to pieces Now you know

Not The Same 03:50
So much left to say between me and you Or am I lying to myself? Chasing out of time, blinding city lights Trying to find somebody else But everyone around me now Is just a faceless crowd When you’re not here I am not the same I shouldda never let you go Now it’s too late, it’s too late Now you’re gone And I’m moving on But it’s not the same Feelings rushing back under the overpass This time I’m walking by myself Yeah you an me were thick as thieves Sometimes it’s not meant to be Indifference surrounds me now It’s getting way too loud When you’re not here I am not the same I shouldda never let you go Now it’s too late, it’s too late Now you’re gone And I’m moving on But it’s not the same Everyone I see Keeps reminding me Everywhere I go Indifference surrounds me now It’s getting way too loud
