Each
of us walks a road to our destiny
One walks as a slave; One will be set free
One may climb the mountain; one may view the height
But few can see the beauty in the darkest days and nights
Pre Chorus
Look through
life's open door, loss or gain, there's so much more
What beauty can a storm cloud bring,
can there be love when there is suffering?
Chorus:
When
you turn me inside out
When faith and hope all turn to doubt
When I can't find my way out
When I reach for your love
Do you hear me at all?
Verse:
And
if you took away my freedom and if you bound me up in chains
If you worked me to the point of death
and if you took away my name
And if I took the train to Dakau- if I took the final ride
Could I still be a free man, could I still find love inside?
Chorus
Verse:
Look
through life's open door,
past loss or gain there's so much more
Look beyond your daily war,
are you rich inside or are you keeping score?

Verse:
Heartbeat
the sound gets clearer, whenever you get near her
Ice Girl don't need to fear her,
get up close where you can really hear her,
Pre-Chorus:
And
all the boys say she's so cold — and
All the lies that you've been told
won't make her go away
Chorus:
Ice
Girl will melt today 3X
Cause in her eyes you see
your heart beating,
and in her arms you can feel
the night's heat and when the sun comes up, she's gone.
Verse:
Melt
down, You move in closer This night will last forever
Ice Girl no need to fear her, the pictures getting clearer
Chorus
Ice
Girl will melt today,
Ice Girl will melt today,
Nice girls will tend to stay, but
Ice Girls will melt away.

Verse:
When
you’re living in the darkside
and you can’t see the light of day
When your looking for a ray of light
to chase those blues away
Chorus:
Just
lift your hands up to the sky
With a shout of joy let your spirit fly.
Take a chance you got nothing to lose,
It’s the power of love or those darkside blues
Bridge:
Thunder
and lightening in the day on the darkside
Bound and chained and feeling those blues
Listen to the Man who came over form the darkside
bringing you life and the power to choose
Just lift your hands up to the sky,
with a shout of joy let your spirit fly
Take a chance you've got nothing to lose.
It's the power of love or those
Darkside Blues.

Verse:
Everyday,
through darkest nights,
when hope was gone and all was lost
You loved me through the valleys low,
and brought me to the highest place.
Verse:
Reaching
in, you pulled me out,
quenched the dream I could not live
And I forever live, endeavoring,
to love you back with all I am
Bridge:
Seeing
love through your eyes,
that two are one can't be denied.
Cherishing
the love we've found,
a place of rest on common ground
Verse:
You
are my love, my only love,
none can compare to what you give.
And
you alone can slake my thirst,
eternal flame through joy and pain.

OF THE NIGHT |

VERSE:
Tommy’s
locked up in his room —
but it’s no prison cell
He’s
got audio and video on
which his heart and mind can dwell
His
parents are too busy to see things in his room
1-900
feeds his mind - 1-800 feels good too.
Pre
Chorus:
On
the net he finds his family —
All
his friends are on TV
And
when he plays Nintendo —
He
can kill things endlessly
CHORUS:
Well
how could it happen this way —
A
fifteen-year- old blew them all away.
Who’s
minding our children tonight —
In
Middle- Class America
it's the middle of the night.
VERSE:
No
one calls Tommy anymore -
but he’s not all alone
Because he can go into a chat room
through the modem on his phone
In
his chat room he can speak with Billy
and he’s real angry too.
They
both have semi-automatics
and they both know what to do
CHORUS:
How
could it happen this way -
A
Fifteen year old blew them all away
As
the bodies hit the floor and his classmates screamed in fright,
It’s
middle-class America - it’s the middle of the night.
Wake
up America, it's the middle of the night.

IS THE LOVE? |

Chorus:
Where
is the Love? 3X
Verse:
Going
90 miles an hour
Living in a hurricane
Going
faster all the time
heading
to the same old place
Chorus:
Where
is the Love? 3X
Bridge:
Love
is more than emotion
It's
having the courage to stay
His
Love runs as deep as the ocean
All
He asks is that you give it away.
Verse:
Driving
the highway of illusion
Traveling
thru the cities of pain
Blown
by the winds of confusion
Driven
by the desire for gain
When the winds of life sweep the gutter
Into a rancid sea of our pain
When it flows thru the door
of the Sanctuary
Will you love or will you turn away?
Chorus:
Where
is the Love? 3X

Verse:
Well,
now everyone is talking about brotherly love
While we're storing up our food
and cleaning out our guns
Well brothers and sisters
Fathers and sons
I've just got one question,
What happened to Love?
Bridge:
And
while a Middle East car bomb ain't big news
Christians fighting Moslems and Moslems fighting Jews
But what knocks me down
what messes with my head,
Is what a man told his
killers, Just before his death;
Chorus:
Not
an eye for an eye,
not a tooth for a tooth
Not a bomb for a bomb
not hate for the truth,
if you’re looking for answers,
if you’re looking for truth
If you’re looking for love,
I’m the living proof
Verse:
From
Romeo and Juliet, to Monica and Bill
From sacrificial love to the birth control pill
From the depths of the sea to Heaven above
We’re all looking for answers; we’re all looking for love
Chorus:
Not
an eye for an eye,
not a tooth for a tooth
Not a bomb for a bomb
not hate for the truth,
if you’re looking for answers,
if you’re looking for truth
If you’re looking for love...
