The Creed

[sendi]

Overcome

Don’t cry victim to me.
Everything we are and used to be
is buried and gone.
Now it’s my turn to speak.
It’s my turn to expose and release what’s been killin me.
I’ll be dammed fighting you it´s impossible, impossible.
Say goodbye with no sympathy.

I’m entitled to overcome
completely stunned i´m numb.
Knock me down throw me to the floor.
There’s no pain i can’t feel no more.
I’m entitled to overcome.
overcome.

Finally see what’s beneath
everything I am and hope to be
cannot be lost.
I’ll be dammed fighting you,
you´re impossible, impossible.
say goodbye with no sympathy.

I’m entitled to overcome
completely stunned i´m numb.
Knock me down throw me to the floor.
There’s no pain I can’t feel no more,
I’m entitled to overcome
overcome.

overcome!

You’ll never know what I was thinking before you came ‘round.
Take a step take a breath put your guard down.
I cannot worry anymore of what you think of me.
I may be crazy but I’m buried in your memory

I’m entitled to overcome.
Completely stunned i´m numb. (look in my eyes)
Knock me down throw me to the floor,
there’s no pain i can’t feel no more
I’m entitled to overcome
overcome!
I may be crazy but I’m buried in your memory!

Pity For A Dime

An artificial season
Covered by summer rain
Losing all my reason
Cause there's nothing left to blame
Shadows paint the sidewalk
A living picture in a frame
See the sea of people
All their faces look the same

So I sat down for awhile
Forcing a smile
In a state of self-denial
Is it worthwhile
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime

Plain talk can be the easy way
Signs of losing my faith
Losing my faith
Plain talk can be the easy way
Signs of losing my faith
Losing my faith

So I sat down for awhile
Yeah, Forcing a smile
In a state of self-denial
Yeah, Is it worthwhile
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime
So I sat down for awhile
Yeah, Forcing a smile
In a state of self-denial
Yeah, Is it worthwhile
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime

Rain

Can you help me out
Can you lend me a hand
Its safe to say
That im stuck again

Trapped between this life
and the light
I just cant figure out
How to make it right

A thousand times before
I've wondered if theres something more
Something more

I feel its gonna rain like this for days
so let it rain down and wash everything away
I hope that tomorrow the sun will shine
with every tomorrow comes another life

I feel its gonna rain
For days and days

I feel its gonna rain

Ive tried to figure out
I cant understand
what it means
to be whole again
trapped between the truth
and the consequence
nothings real
nothings making sense
a thousand times before
I've wondered if theres something more
something more

I feel its gonna rain like this for days
so let it rain down and wash everything away
I hope that tomorrow the sun will shine
I feel its gonna rain like this, rain like this, rain like this

Fall down
Wash away my yesterdays
Fall down
So let the rain fall down on me

I feel its gonna rain like this for days
let it rain down and wash everything away
I hope that tomorrow the sun will shine

I feel its gonna rain like this, rain like this (so let the rain fall down)
I feel its gonna rain like this, rain like this (so let the rain fall down)
I feel its gonna rain like this

I feel its gonna rain

Riders On The Storm

Riders on the storm.
Riders on the storm.
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out on loan.
Riders on the storm.
There's a killer on the road.
His brain is squirming like a toad.
Take a long holiday
Let your children play.
If you give this man a ride
Sweet family will die.
Killer on the road.

Girl, you gotta love your man.
Girl, you gotta love your man.
Take him by the hand
Make him understand
The world on you depends.
Our life will never end.
Girl, you gotta love your man.

Riders on the storm.
Riders on the storm
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out on loan.
Riders on the storm.

Riders on the storm.
Riders on the storm.
Riders on the storm.
Riders on the storm.

Roadhouse

Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel
Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel
Yeah, we're going to the roadhouse, gonna have a real good time.
Yeah, the back of the roadhouse, they got some bungalows
Yeah, the back of the roadhouse, they got some bungalows
And that's for the people who like to go down slow.

Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll all night long.

You've got to roll, roll, roll
You've got to thrill my soul, all right
Roll, roll, roll, roll
Thrill my soul, etc.

Ashen lady
Ashen lady
Give up your vows
Give up your vows
Save our city
Save our city
Right now.

When I woke up this morning, I got myself a beer
When I woke up this morning, I got myself a beer
The future's uncertain and the end is always near.

Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll all night long.

Say I

The dust has finally settled on the field of Human Clay
Just enough light has shown through
To tell the night from the day
We are incomplete and hollow
For our maker has gone away

Who is to blame?
We'll surely melt in the rain
Say I, Say I
Say I, Say I
Say I, Say I

The stillness is so lifeless with no spirit in your soul
Like children with no vision do exactly what they're told
Being led into the desert
For your strength will surely fade

Who is to blame?
We'll surely melt in the rain
Say I, Say I
Say I, Say I
Say I, Say I

Say I, Say I
Say I, Say I
Say I, Say I

Frantic, faction, focus
The world breathes
And out forms this misconception we call man
But I don't know him
No, I don't know him
Because he lies..They lie

Say I, yeah
Say I, yeah
Say I, yeah
Say I, Say I
Say I, Say I

Signs

This is not about age
Time served on the earth doesn't mean you grow in the mind
This is not about God
Spiritual insinuations seem to shock our nation

Come with me I'm fading underneath the lights
Come with me
Come with me
Come with me now

This is not about race
It's a decision to stop the division in your life
This is not about sex
We all know sex sells and the whole world is buying

Come with me I'm fading underneath the lights
Come with me
Come with me
Come with me now

Can't you see the signs?
See the signs now

Can't you see them?
See the signs
You see them
All the signs we see them
Can't you see them?

Sister

Caught up in the middle
Had no choice, had no choice
Birthright forgotten, so silent
No voice
I see you
You know who
Little girl, little girl
Now realize little girl
Overlooked little girl
Bottled up and empty holding back
At loss you're forgotten
Getting back, get back
Expectations of another
Love given to the younger
Broken father, broken brother
Emptiness feeds the hunger
I see you
You know who
Little sister, little sister
Now realize little sister
Overlooked little girl
Change, change, change

 

[sendi]

Stand Here With Me

You always reached out to me and helped me believe
All those memories we share
I will cherish every one of them
The truth of it is there's a right way to live
And you showed me
So now you live on in the words of a song
You're a melody

You stand here with me now

Just when fear blinded me you taught me to dream
I'll give you everything I am and still fall short of
What you've done for me
In this life that I live
I hope I can give love unselfishly
I've learned the world is bigger than me
You're my daily dose of reality

You stand here with me now

On and on we sing
On and on we sing this song

'Cause you stand here with me

 

[sendi]

To Whom It May Concern

Oh, I didn't mean to yell
But sometimes I get beside myself
And oh, I didn't mean to rush you
But time keeps pushing so much
Oh, time keeps pushing so much
Your eyes stare at me in the dark
And I hope those eyes
Don't steal my freedom
My freedom
Oh, If I didn't give it all
When I stood you made me crawl
And oh, if you never heard the song
Then I could still hide down behind the wall
Then I could still hide down behind the wall
Your eyes stare at me in the dark
And I hope those eyes
Don't steal my freedom
My freedom
And I hope those eyes
Don't steal my freedom
My freedom
Said eyes, those eyes
I said don't steal my freedom
Your eyes stare at me in the dark
And I hope those eyes
Don't steal my freedom
My freedom
Oh, my freedom
Your eyes stare at me in the dark
And I hope those eyes
Don't steal my freedom
My freedom
Oh, my freedom
Said eyes, those eyes
Said eyes, those eyes
I said don't steal my freedom
