I Found My Hero
03:32

I see you working in the daylight
I see you working in the night
I see you doing what you gotta do
You are standing for what's right
I see you managing your happiness
I see you caring for your friends
I see you living in the moment
Your smile puts me on the mend
Oooh, puts me on the mend
Hey hey!
I found my hero
When I see the moments I see
You rise above the world
When I see the things that I see
You rise above the world
When the world gets a bit darker
You say let's turn on the light
When people get a bit darker
You make them shine so bright
Oooh, so bright
Hey hey!
I found my hero

Days Gone By
05:05
|

Living in a world where the sun don't rise
Is living in a world where it's dark all the time
Fear is the word that controls us all
When I'm scared I don't know who to call
The days have changed and they're not the same
People say get out of my way
But here's some love to fill your cup
Don't look down unless you're helping them up
The days have changed but they're not the same
Living in a world that's full of pain
Nobody's trying to be the frame
Of the life we should be living
When we look back on this moment
Will we be granted atonement?
A world without a simple smile
These are truly days gone by
Cover your face, but not your eyes
So people here can realize
That the crisis here has taken a toll
But at the end of the day we still have our souls
And when this ends will we return
Will we treat people like they deserve?
We'll climb this hurdle, it's a steep hill
I don't believe in much, but I believe in people
The days have changed but they're not the same
Living in a world that's full of pain
Nobody's trying to be the frame
Of the life we should be living
When we look back on this moment
Will we be granted atonement?
A world without a simple smile
These are truly days gone by

Short Beach

Short beach
That's my home
Short beach
That's my home
Well I ain't goin' nowhere
As long as I've got my own
Well I went down 95 to decide where to go
And the voices in my head tell me what I need to know
I'm getting off 53, cuz that's the only one I need
I'm heading down, back to town, to good old short beach

Summer Day
06:11
|
|||
Flexing the muscles at the side of your mouth
Is a feeling that we all know
Reducing the pain, so you don't feel the same
Is how you help yourself grow
The sun's rays, are here to stay
As the days of dark fade
Let's raise our hands up to the sky
For summer is here today
Whoa, can you feel it?
Whoa, it's a summer day
We're care free, we're feeling good
The days are full of laughter
We're chasing this feeling, to live this today
Yes, this is what we're after
The sun's rays, are here to stay
As the days of dark fade
Let's raise our hands up to the sky
For summer is here today

The Sailing Wind
05:03
|
|||
Make this house a home, do you know any other way?
Settle the score with you, and believe what you say
Day dreams are fine, as long as you know
What is real is what's real, now what do you have to show?
Follow the sailing wind, if you get turned around again
It'll point you
Stay the course you know, and let it flow
You know you
When the morning comes, you won't run
It's the way to go
When the day arrives, you'll know the side, or at least
The right direction
Make the friendships last, they're a celebration
When you walk your path, to your final destination
We are not measured, by the miles we are apart
We are measured, by the heart
Follow the sailing wind, if you get turned around again
It'll point you
Stay the course you know, and let it flow
You know you
When the morning comes, you won't run
It's the way to go
When the day arrives, you'll know the side, or at least
The right direction

Every morning that I wake
I try to greet each day with a fiber of
My meaning that I hold, it's near and dear to me
It's easier said than done
I'm not the first to say
But trying is better than none
So that's a way
We can't change what's past
It ain't what ya wanna hear
I try to move so fast
So stuff don't get near
Don't need a mountain or train
To get away from it all
Let go of the pain, and catch before you
Fall, catch before you fall
I know it's hard
I can't even say
How did it turn into this today?
It seemed so perfect, it seemed surreal
And now there's a hole, so how do I deal?
Fall, catch before you fall

Two Faces
03:58
|
|||
They only see what you want them to see
You hide behind the truth
You show them what you want them to see
Forgotten your roots
When no one's around, you ain't even you
That's the saddest thing
You smile and claim this person is true
But the pendulum swings
One face hides the other
One cowers in fear
One isn't like the other
For nothing seems too clear
I see two faces
One ain't like the other
I see two faces
I won't pay no bother
You say you're trying to be who you are
But that ain't true
I see you from a mile away
That ain't you
When no one's around, you ain't even you
That's the saddest thing
You smile and claim this person is true
But the pendulum swings
One face hides the other
One cowers in fear
One isn't like the other
For nothing seems too clear
I see two faces
One ain't like the other
I see two faces
I won't pay no bother

Last Train
04:18
|
|||
I'm runnin', trying to escape
And every possible route just stands in my way, I'm gone
Without a trace
I'm on the last, train outta here
Runnin' from your problems, never solves
But with them out of the picture, will they dissolve
I hope so, I really do
I'm on the last, train outta here
Peace is just, within my grasp
Hoping I can just be, happy at last
I wanna smile, feel so free
And I don't need no train, to escape

Be Fair
06:50
|
|||
I won't stand with no man who won't look another in the eye
And say I accept you for who you are
I won't bleed with the fools who think the problems don't exist
Man how could you believe all their lies?
The color of your skin should not be the reason alone
Why you are targeted with so much hate
And I won't fight or be physical and I sure won't take you down
But rest assured I will try to open your mind
Be fair, just be fair
Try to see things from others' point of view
Be fair, just be fair
And pray it doesn't happen to you
And the day has come to those who've pained, they're finally standing up
They're marching the streets with their pounding feet, crying out enough is enough
And we can share their voice, for it's one common point
Let's all be treated kindly and fair
And if you don't agree, then hopefully you'll see
There's only one thing we want, and its change
And we can change the world, bring the light a little closer
And hopefully we'll smile when this is over
Be fair, just be fair
Try to see things from others' point of view
Be fair, just be fair
And pray it doesn't happen to you
