Leave It Inside

I see no need to go through the same situation
Always so complicated with these relations
So I got to get away
Knowing that my heart will stray
Handling more than I can
Why the same old story again?

I think it's time for a change
Cause I'm tired of these games
I'm gonna leave it inside
Cause I'm all right on the outside
And I'm tired of this rain
And I'm tired of the shame
I'm gonna leave it inside
Cause I'm all right on the outside

Trying so hard to make it work out, but I can live without
All of these silly games that I know nothing about
This is getting way out of hand
Falling down, unable to stand
Emotions I've chosen to ignore
Do I know what I'm looking for?

I think it's time for a change
Cause I'm tired of these games
I'm gonna leave 'em inside
Cause I'm all right on the outside
And I'm tired of this rain
And I'm tired of the shame
I'm gonna leave it inside
Cause I'm all right on the outside
Whoa

I'm a little tired, I'm gonna leave it inside
I'm a little tired, I'm gonna leave it inside

I think it's time for a change
Cause I'm tired of these games
I'm gonna leave 'em inside
Cause I'm alright on the outside
And I'm tired of this rain
And I'm tired of the shame
I'm gonna leave it inside
Cause I'm all right on the outside
I think it's time for change
Cause I'm tired of these games
I'm gonna leave it inside
I'm gonna leave
I'm gonna leave it inside
Whoa
I'm a little tired, I'm gonna leave it inside
I'm a little tired, I'm gonna leave it inside

Front Row

Did I see you winking
Ohh it's got me thinking
Should I show affection to the guy in the front row?
Did I see you smile, cause you've been here for a while
Should I make a connection with the guy in the front row?

But you don't know where I'm from,
Where I belong,
All you know is my name
And you only know what you see,
And that really isn't me,
But I'm glad that you came

Are you making passes
While I'm pleasing the masses
Well, I know all about you,
You're the guy in the front row
Well, are you trying to distract me?
While you try to attract me?
Well I know what to do, about you in the front row

But you don't know where I'm from,
Where I belong,
All you know is my name
And you only know what you see,
And that really isn't me,
But I'm glad that you came

So when I turned around
Started looking down
See you're on the ground
But I'm love bound
Got a place to be?
Want to hang with me?
Hope you can see
You're my destiny
I see you're love comin' now
I know what you're all about
But there's nothing I can do right now

Just let me say, it's been a good day
So don't ruin it by running away
Cause I just might put up a fight
To be with you tonight
I know it's not right.
What's going on in my mind?
What have you helped me find?
But I'll get through to you somehow yeah
Oh, whoa, no, whoa, whoa, whoa

But you don't know where I'm from,
Where I belong,
All you know is my name
And you only know what you see,
And that really isn't me,
But I'm glad that you came, you came
Oh, oh

Devils and Angels

I found out today that you went on a little trip
To somewhere you don't belong
One of your friends, made just a little slip
So I'm taking a little trip of my own

And I'm going to meet you
I'm going to greet you
At her back door as you're coming out
Oh, why this now?

Cause I used to have angels that used to watch over me
When love was not a stranger,
But love ain't not what it used to be
And I don't want these devils
They're knocking at my door
So, I can't love you no more, no more, no more, yeah
No more, no more, no more, no more

You might have thought that I would be a little bit lazy
I might not notice I might not care
Oh, but now you're finding out, I'm a little bit crazy,
And you were the one, so unaware

So I'm going to meet you
I'm going to greet you
At her back door as you're coming out
Oh, why this now?

Cause I used to have angels that used to watch over me
When love was not a stranger,
But love ain't not what it used to be
And I don't want these devils
They're knocking at my door
So, I can't love you no more, no more, no more

Oh I'm going to walk on, walk on, walk on
Keep my feet movin' on
Walk on, walk on, walk on
Keep my feet movin' on
Walk on, walk on, walk on
Keep my feet movin' on
Walk on, walk on

Cause I used to have angels that used to watch over me
When love was not a stranger,
But love ain't not what it used to be
And I don't want these devils
They're knocking at my door
So, I can't love you no more no more no more

I'm going to let you go
Yes, I'm going to let you go
I won't take it
I won't take it no more.
Do you hear what I'm saying?
Do you hear what I'm saying?
Don't think you can come back here to change my life
Don't think you can come back here to take it all back

Everyday

Every day is a struggle
Between what I want to say and what I should keep to myself
And the words that manage to leave my lips
Don't hurt me, but they hurt everyone else

So I find myself in need of a part
I'm not sure why, but I think that it's because
Of this desire to be what others want me to be
Which is nothing close to me

But I'll see better when the smoke clears
When the smoke clears inside my head
And I can listen when the screaming
Doesn't repeat everything I've said
And all that remains me and who I am at the end of the day
And this happens every day yeah

Every day is a battle
Between what I want to know and what I don't want to figure out
And everything in between
In these thoughts of mine that you know I can't live without

So I find myself in need of a part
I'm not sure why, but I think that it's because
Of this desire to be what others want me to be
Which is nothing close to me

But I'll see better when the smoke clears
When the smoke clears inside my head
And I can listen when the screaming
Doesn't repeat everything I've said
All that remains me and who I am at the end of the day
And this happens every day yeah

But I'll see better when the smoke clears
When the smoke clears inside my head
And I can listen when the screaming
Doesn't repeat everything I've said
All that remains me and who I am at the end of the day
And this happens every day, this happens every day
And this happens every day yeah

Coming Back In

Every time I try to walk away
You pull me back with all those things you'd say
And I find myself unable to leave
Do you have a clue to what you are doing to me?

And now I'm singing the words that I don't have the strength to say
And I am thinking about the courage to let me walk away
But I keep coming back in, coming back in, coming back in to you
Yes I'm coming back in, coming back in, cause I know what you do
So I'm coming back in, coming back in,
I'm coming back in to you
To you yeah (let me walk away)
(Let me walk away)

Always searching for that one reason
To run off with the tide, to change with the season
And always needing time to contemplate
The emotions I give, but you can't reciprocate

And now I'm singing the words that I don't have the strength to say
And I am thinking about the courage to let me walk away
But I keep coming back in, coming back in, coming back in to you
Yes I'm coming back in, coming back in, cause I know what you do
So I'm coming back in, coming back in,
I'm coming back in to you, to you

Baby I don't, don't want to come back to you
You just keep pulling me, pulling me in
Why can't I stay away from you?
Baby I don't, don't want to come back to you
You just keep bringing me, bringing me back in
Why can't I stay away from you?

And so I'm singing the words that I don't have the strength to say
And I am thinking about the courage to let me walk away
And I am closing the door to your face in my mind
And I am running away from this past I should leave behind
Oh I should leave behind but I
Keep coming back in, coming back in, coming back in to you
Yes I'm coming back in, coming back in, 'cause I know what you do
So I'm coming back in, coming back in,
I'm coming back in to you... to you...
To you... to you...

Only if you want me to, I'll let you go
Only if you want me to, oh

Is This Right

Love is like taking the hand from a man you just met on the street
You don't know what he's about, and he walks to his own beat
And he, takes you on a journey that you can't really define
But you know it might be worth it,
You know it's not a waste of your time

Love is like diving into an ocean that is certainly too deep
To feel, the sand in your toes, and the bottoms of your feet
But for, some strange reason you stay cold and wet
Cause you know deep down that you haven't seen, the best of it yet
And all the while you wonder

Is this right? How do we know
If we never been here before?
Is this right, how do we know
Should we take a chance tonight, take a chance tonight
Should I be sitting by your side, for the rest of your life
Is this right, how do we know?

Love is like jumping from the top of the highest mountain
Just to feel, the freedom of no boundaries and the wind in your hair
And you fly on and on, you fly up to the moon
Cause this freedom will bring you ecstasy,
And you know you're gonna feel it soon
And all the while you wonder

Is this right? How do we know
If we never been here before?
Is this right, how do we know
Should we take a chance tonight, take a chance tonight
Should I be sitting by your side, for the rest of your life
Is this right, how do we know?
How do we know?

All I had to do is paint a picture of you in my mind
And I held on tight
Just one look at you
I know everything's gonna be all right
And so I'm ready this time oh

Is this right, how do we know
Should we take a chance tonight, take a chance tonight
Should I be sitting by your side, for the rest of your life
Is this right, how do we know?
How do we know?
How do we know?
How do we know?

Frightened

Viewing lights under the surface
Knowing I'm found
Can't run away from
Can't make it undone

While reaching out for anything
Screaming without a sound
How did I find you
How was I supposed to try

I'm frightened by the love that's in you
But it's alright
Oh and I'm frightened by the love that's in me
But I know, it's alright
It's alright, oh, oh

The only one who understands
The only one who gave me
Something to belong to
With nothing left to undo

With you, everything's beautiful
And I'm not scared to be
Falling into unknown
With you, I find the strength to carry on

I'm frightened by the love that's in you
But it's alright
Oh and I'm frightened by the love that's in me
But I know, it's alright
It's alright, oh, oh
It's alright, it's alright yea, oh

Oh and I'm frightened by the love that's in you
But it's alright
Oh and I'm frightened by the love that's in me
But I know, it's alright
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
It's alright, it's alright

Don't Wanna Know

You're no less than perfect
But you're more than real
You're untouchable
How does it make you feel

And I'm waiting in line to be near you
And I can't believe my eyes
The kisses are all blown to you every time

But I'd rather leave you
Than see through the fantasy
And I'd rather stay shy and get high
On what could be
I don't wanna know what you do, where you go
I don't wanna know, who you really are

A glistening smile
A twinkle in your eye
Well I can smile like that
Just give me a try

And I've traveled around just to hear you
And your songs don't leave my mind
So tell me what should I do
To get you to say hi

But I'd rather leave you
Than see through the fantasy
And I'd rather stay shy and get high
On what could be
I don't wanna know what you do, where you go
I don't wanna know, who you really are
Who you are

And I've traveled around just to hear you
And your songs don't leave my mind
So tell me what should I do

But I'd rather leave you
Than see through the fantasy
And I'd rather stay shy and get high
On what could be
I don't wanna know
I don't wanna know what you do, where you go
I don't wanna know, who you are
Who you are

The River

The roads are closed
Do you know where you should be?
When the lights are dim
Are you going to come crying to me?

Cause you're sitting there
With your legs crossed
Looking so carefree
Do you think you can run away
From your so-called misery?

Cause you know the
Tide ain't rollin' in for you
The tide ain't rollin' in for me
Are you going to sink?
Are you going to swim?
Because I'll take you down to the river
Yes I'll take you down to the river
In the end
I'll take you down to the river
But you're going in
You're going in

Now the choice is yours
Are you in or are you going to back out?
Well this is your life baby
Are you going to take a look around?

Cause you seem to think that all
Your chances will chase you down
I'm telling you to open up your eyes
And take those feet off the ground yeah

Cause you know the
Tide ain't rollin' in for you
The tide ain't rollin' in for me
Are you going to sink?
Are you going to swim?
Because I'll take you down to the river
Yes I'll take you down to the river
Don't you know
I'll take you down to the river
But you're going in
You're going in

Now the roads are closed
Do you know where you should be?
Now the lights are dim
Are you going to come crying to me?

Cause you know the
Tide ain't rollin' in for you
The tide ain't rollin' in for me
Are you going to sink?
Are you going to swim?
Because I'll take you down to the river
Yes I'll take you down to the river
In the end
I'll take you down to the river
But you're going in
You're going in

Running Away

There's not a cloud in the sky when we walk by, no
And the smoke spirals off your cigarette, oh
The wind blows hard off the side of the car
And the sun shines on our silhoutte

And today we have no cares, today
While tomorrow we'll be more aware, tomorrow

We're not running to run away
We're just wasting away the day
Does it show
We're not running to run away
We're just wasting away the day
And we know, we know

We'll be laughing until our tears run dry
And our silence fills the air with a smile
We'll talk about all the years that are passing us by
And about how we've been friends all the while

But today we have no cares, today
While tomorrow, we'll be more aware, tomorrow oh

We're not running to run away
We're just wasting away the day
Does it show
We're not running to run away
We're just wasting away the day
And we know, yet we know

But today we have no cares, today
While tomorrow, we'll be more aware, tomorrow oh

We're not running to run away
We're just wasting away the day
Does it show
We're not running to run away
We're just wasting away the day
We know, we know, we know
Yea we know, we know, yea

Voices

This was the last thing to enter my mind
This was something I was never concerned about
People play these silly games all the time
But what I find are these feelings of doubt
I only wanna be satisfied
But feelings come into play
And all my words just run away

Are the voices being true
Do the roads all lead to you
Cause there's so much left untold
When there's no one left to hold
But you might just believe

Tell me the words that are stuck in your head
Tell me, do you think this is real
Cause I remember everything that you've ever said
My only wish is to know how you feel
I only wanna be satisfied
But feelings come into play
And all my words just run away

Are the voices being true
Do the roads all lead to you
Cause there's so much left untold
When there's no one left to hold
But you might just believe
Oh, you might just believe yeah

I just wanna reach you
I just wanna reach you
Am I getting through oh to you yeah

Are the voices being true (are the voices being true)
Do the roads all lead to you
Cause there's so much left untold
When there's no one left to hold
But you might just believe
Oh, you might just believe

Devils and Angels (Acoustic)

I found out today that you went on a little trip
To somewhere you don't belong
One of your friends, made just a little slip
So I'm taking a little trip of my own

And I'm going to meet you
I'm going to greet you
At her back door as you're coming out
Oh, why this now

Cause I used to have angels that used to watch over me
When love was not a stranger, but love ain't not what it used to be
And I don't want these devils they're knocking at my door
So, I can't love you no more, no more, no more, no more.

You might have thought that I would be a little bit lazy
I might not notice, I might not care
Oh, but now you're finding out, I'm a little bit crazy,
And you were the one, so unaware

Well so I'm going to meet you
I'm going to greet you
At her back door as you're coming out
Oh, why this now?

Cause I used to have angels that used to watch over me
Love was not a stranger, but love ain't not what it used to be
And I don't want these devils, they're knocking at my door
No, I can't love you no more, no more

So I'm going to walk on, walk on, walk on
Keep my feet movin' on walk on, walk on, walk on
So I'm going to walk on, walk on, walk on
Keep my feet movin' on

Cause I used to have angels that used to watch over me
Love was not a stranger, but love ain't not what it used to be
And I don't want these devils they're knocking at my door
No, I can't love you no more, no more, no more, no more

Little Thing

(Instrumental)

Leave It Inside (Acoustic)

I see no need to go through the same situation
Always so complicated with these relations
So I got to get away
Knowing that my heart will stray
Handling more than I can
Why the same old stories again?

I think it's time for a change
Cause I'm tired of these games
I'm gonna leave it inside
Cause I'm all right on the outside
And I'm tired of this rain
And I'm tired of the shame
I'm gonna leave it inside
Cause I'm all right on the outside oh yeah

Trying so hard to make it work out, but I can live without
All of these silly games that I know nothing about
This is getting way out of hand
Falling down, unable to stand
Emotions I've chosen to ignore
Do I know what I'm looking for?

I think it's time for a change
Cause I'm tired of these games
I'm gonna leave 'em inside
Cause I'm all right on the outside
And I'm tired of this rain
And I'm tired of the shame
I'm gonna leave it inside
Cause I'm all right on the outside

I'm a little tired, I'm gonna leave it inside oh
I'm a little tired, I'm gonna leave it inside
Oh yea
I think it's time for a change
Cause I'm tired of these games
I'm gonna leave it inside
Cause I'm alright on the outside
And I'm tired of this rain
And I'm tired of the shame
I'm gonna leave it inside
Cause I'm all right on the outside
I think it's time for change
Cause I'm tired of these games
I'm gonna leave it inside
Well I'm gonna leave it inside

I'm a little tired, I'm gonna leave it inside
I'm a little tired, I'm gonna leave it inside
