Lyrics to It's Not Over :
I was blown away what could I say
It all seemed to make sense
You’ve taken away everything
And I can’t do without
I try to see the good in life
But good things in life are hard to find

(Chorus)
Blow it away, Blow it away
Can we make this something goooood
Well I tried to do it right this time around
Let’s start oveeerr
I tried to do it right this time around
Its not oveeerr
There’s a part of me that’s dead and in the ground
This love is killing me, but you’re the only one
Its not overrrrr
(Chorus)

Taken all I could take and I cannot wait
Were wasting to much time
Being strong holding on
Cant let it bring us down
My life with you means everything
So I won’t give up that easily

(Chorus)
Blow it Away, Blow it Away
Can we make this something gooood
Cause its all misunderstoooood
Well I tried to do it right this time around
Let’s start over
I tried to do it right this time around
It’s not over
Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground
This love is killing me
But you’re the only one
It’s not oveeeerrr
(Chorus)

We can’t let this get away
Let it out, let it out
Don’t get caught up in yourself
Let it ouuuuttttt

(Chorus)
Let’s start over
I tried to do it right this time around
It’s not over
Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground
This love is killing me
But you’re the only one
It’s not oveeer
Let’s start oveeeerrr
Its not oveeerr, Oh yeah, yeah!
This love is killing me
But you’re the only one
It’s not oveeerrrr.....

Lyrics to Long Way :
Dusty road, hopeless eyes, looking at the blinding lights
Saw your ghost here tonight, it lingers on
and I feel your life pulling me back to the place
But the thought of staring back at you is more than I can face

It's a long way now from where I used to rest my head
It's safe and sound if only I could turn around
There's no direction where I stand just dead end signs and wasted land.
It's a long way now to you.

Trust in hope, she left me standing by to find what's lost
Is it in her eyes pulling me back to the place?
Just thinking of myself without you is more than I can take

It's a long way now, from where I used to rest my head
It's safe and sound if only I could turn around
There's no direction where I stand just dead end signs and wasted land
It's a long way now, to you, to you, to you, to you...

Saw your ghost here tonight,
It lingers on and I feel your life.

It's a long way now from where I used to rest my head
It's safe and sound if only I could turn around
There's no direction where I stand just dead end signs and wasted land

It's a long way now from where I used to rest my head
It's safe and sound if only I could turn around
There's no direction where I stand just dead end signs and wasted land
It's a long way now, it's a long way now, it's a long way now to you!

Lyrics to What Have We Become :
All those years
One day changes everything, and
Gone and your life and the passion fades away
Saving for something
That you'll never see in your days
Shutting out everything that you need

(Looking through distorted eyes)
Beautiful disaster
(Adding up a million lies)
So much for “ever after”
Building up your wall
Everything you wanted
Fit the pieces into holes we used to crowd away
Giving in or leaving this now
Now we have what we have become
All the tears
We never thought we'd see the day when
The trappings of your life would seem to disappear
Goin through the vacancy you leave behind
Not what you have promised,
Not what you believed

(Looking through distorted eyes)
Beautiful disaster
(Adding up a million lies)
So much for “ever after”
Building up your wall
Everything you wanted
Fit the pieces into holes we used to crowd away
Finding out the truth, when nothing really matters
Chase the light that's blinding even as you crowd away
Now we have what we have become
Now you fight to ease your pain
Now you know it's not the way out
Now you know it's not the way out
Not the way out

Building up your wall
Everything you wanted
Fit the pieces into holes we used to crowd away
Finding out the truth, when nothing really matters
Chase the light that's blinding even as you crowd away
Now we have what we have become

Lyrics to On The Inside :
[Verse 1:]
Your life is like a crack in the mirror
7 years of bad luck it aint getting better now
Not till all is said and done
Reflection in the window is the same old face
Background small town everywhere you look around
Tell me what you're runnin from

Flip a coin and let it land in your hand
Heads you gonna stay but its tails

[Chorus:]
So you can move to another town
Hide where you're sure you wont be found
But its still just you on the inside
You can pretend it'll be alright
Said it to yourself but you know its just a lie
Cause its still just you on the inside

Still you on the inside...

[Verse 2:]
Nothin faster than the speed of your leavin
A hundred miles an hour and there aint no slowin down
But you cant outrun yourself
Hey you can say you fit in like a joker in the deck
But now you're skipping like a broken record goin round
You're the last to ask for help

You flip a coin and let it land in your hand
Heads you gonna stay but its tails

[Chorus:]
So you can move to another town
Hide where you're sure you wont be found
But its still just you on the inside
You can't pretend it'll be alright
Said it to yourself but you know its just a lie
Cause its still just you on the inside

Still you on the inside

[Bridge:]
Its never really been a question of how far
And at the end of every destination there you are

[Ending Chorus:]
You can move to another town
Hide where you're sure you won't be found
But its still just you on the inside
You can pretend it will be alright
No matter how you sell it
When you tell it its a lie
Cause its still just you on the inside
Still you on the inside (You can go and change and to me you'll always be the same)
Still you on the inside (You can try and run and know you'll always be the same inside)
Still you on the inside (You can go and change and to me you'll always be the same)
Still you on the inside (You can try and run and know you'll always be the same inside)
Still love you on the inside.

Lyrics to Get Me Through :
Cry out all who care to know
I've been hollow way too long
I know where I'm going wrong
There's nothing I can do
I believe you can get me through
Nothing else will do
I believe you can get me through
So can you stop the bleeding?
Get me through…

Color blind I paint your blue sky grey
But this time you'll shed some light on me
Just before I fade away
There's nothing I can do
I believe you can get me through
Nothing else will do
I believe you can get me through
So can you stop the bleeding?
Get me through…

All the chances that you're takin'
The promises that I keep breaking down
Writings on the wall
Can't make out all the letters
But I know it's getting better now
The writings on the wall

Get me through…

There's nothing I can do
I believe you can get me through
Nothing else will do
I believe you can get me through
So can you stop the bleeding?
Get me through…

Lyrics to One Last Chance :
Tell me what you need and I will find a way to stop the bleeding;
No, don't add to my mistakes.
Tell me you're not leaving and I'll tell you everything you need to know.
Don't throw it all away, don't say my words are just too late.

I don't want to be left behind, I've been so blind to all that I have broken.
Can we put this back together?
No more empty promises, they don't exist; just me out in the open.
I know this will take time, can you give me one last chance to make it right?

You say the story's ending but I think it's time we stop pretending;
No, can't let you turn the page.
Does your heart remember when we used to say forever, don't let go.
Don't throw it all away; don't say these words are just too late.

I don't want to be left behind, I've been so blind to all that I have broken.
Can we put this back together?
No more empty promises, they don't exist; just me out in the open.
I know this will take time, can we put the past behind us,
Tonight I'm gonna fight for you; just give me one last chance to make it right,
Last chance to make it right.

I don't want to be left behind, I've been so blind to all that I have broken.
Can we put this back together?
No more empty promises, they don't exist; just me out in the open.
I know this will take time, can you give me one last chance to make it right?

Give me one last chance to make it right,
A last chance to make it right
A last chance to make it right
No more empty promises, they don't exist; just me out in the open.
I know this will take time, can you give me one last chance to make it right?

Lyrics to Traffic Light :
The traffic light
Waits for you to tell me the tale of a shattered life, tonight
And I just passed by when you have had the chance to fight
Or would you spend your last days alone
Thinkin nobody would have cared
or known just look me in the eye and see that its a light
So you're telling me, this is how you're going down
You thought that I never really wanted you around
Well you are way off track to think like that
Coz now you have taken back, everything that you ever said
bout how Id never want to see you again
Well this is what I, what I left behind
What I left behind, what I left behind
Need a change
In a minute of my time did I get your name?
Well you say, that I haven't been asked that in years
Now I think, the traffic light that stood in the way
So that I can hear what you had to say
I'm half way through your story
Cant help thinking that you're just like me

This is how I'm going down
I thought that they never really wanted me around
Well I was way off track to think like that
Coz now I'm taken back, everything that I ever said
bout how they'd never want to see me again
Well this is what I, what I left behind

Forgetting about ourselves
Is like history that dust is covering left on the self, on the self
The crosswalks make the way for us to say what we need to say

Yeah, this is how you're going down
You thought I'd never really wanted you around
Well you were way off track to think like that
Coz now you have taken back, everything that you ever said
bout how I never want to see you again
Well this is what I, what I left behind
This is how you're going down
This is what I, what I left behind

Lyrics to Back To Me :
Sitting here all alone inside this room tonight,
Cannot be awake, no, the day yeah
Rummaging through the dark and empty closet of my mind
But I got all the time in space
To tell you all that's on my mind
I still haven't found the way

But the thoughts inside my head
Are begging you to say
So come on back to me, come on back to me
Out of everything you've said, I still have the urge to say
Come on back to me, come on back to me, yeah, yeah

Sitting here all alone inside this room tonight,
Cannot be awake, no, the day yeah
Rummaging through the dark and empty closet of my mind
But I got all the time in space
To tell you all that's on my mind
I still haven't found the way

But the thoughts inside my head
Are begging you to say
Come on back to me, come on back to me
Out of everything you've said, I still have the urge to say
Come on back to me, come on back to me, yeah

Just say the word and I'll be running fast as I can to you
No there's nothing I won't do for you right now
And afterwards after making it through all the stormy weather
We can put the pieces back together

So come on back to me, come on back to me
Out of everything you've said, I still have the urge to say
Come on back to me, come on back to me, yeah
Come on back to me, Come on back to me,
Come on back to me, yeah

Lyrics to Come Back To Me :
(David Cook)
You say you gotta go and find yourself
You say that you're becoming someone else
Don't recognize the face in the mirror looking back at you
You say you're leaving as you look away
I know there's really nothing left to say
Just know I'm here whenever you need me, I will wait for you

So I'll let you go, I'll set you free
And when you've seen what you need to see
When you find you...come back to me

(The Daughtry)
Take your time, I won't go anywhere
Picture you with the wind in your hair
I'll keep your things right where you left 'em, I'll be here for you.

I'll let you go, I'll set you free
And when you've seen what you need to see
When you find you...come back to me

And I hope you find everything that you need
I'll be right here, waiting to see
You find you...come back to me

(Both)
And I can't get close if you're not there
I can't get inside if there's no soul there
I can't fix you, I can't save you
It's something you'll have to do.

(The Daughtry)
So I'll let you go, I'll set you free
And when you've seen what you need to see
When you find you...come back to me
Come back to me

(David Cook)
I'll let you go, I'll set you free
And when you've seen what you need to see
When you find you...come back to me

(Both)
And I hope you find everything that you need.
I'll be right here, waiting to see.
You find you...come back to me

(David Cook)
When you find you...come back to me

(The Duaghtry)
When you find you...come back to me

(Both)
When I find you...come back to me
