UNEASY
[Tzuke/ Silvas/ Harrington]


Whatever happens, it's not what it seems, whatever it brings, don't hide,
I look for problems, on every street, whomever I meet; I tear them all to pieces,
And I can't go far with my indecisions, but I'll do it in my own time,
And I'm no more wrong than anyone, and I'm no more right if I choose this life,
There are things I've got to do, but when I'm listening to you,
I'm uneasy, and I need you to release me...
Oh, oh oh oh...
Whatever I say, I think the opposite, excuse the things that I did,
'cos we're all less than perfect.
Whatever happens, it's not what it seems, no matter what it brings,
don't iron out the creases,
I can keep my head above the water, without you throwing me a line,
And I'm no more wrong than anyone, and I'm no more right if I choose
this life, there are things I've got to do, but when I'm listening to you,
I'm uneasy...
and I need you to release me...
Don't think that I'm putting you on the outside,
I have to stand on my two feet,
Before I can walk with you,
This moments mine...
'cause I'm no more wrong than anyone,
and I'm no more right if I choose this life,
there are things I've got to do,
but when I'm listening to you,
I'm uneasy...
and I need you to release me...

OUTSIDE
[Tzuke/ Eldridge/ Lynn-Smith]


Inside my room is a box full of treasures.
Where I keep memory's and they make me smile.
Inside my room, pillows filled up with feathers.
It smells like home and it’s there I feel safe.
Outside me, a world of joy, a world of pain, I didn’t realize
Outside me, I had to go there so that I could see with my own eyes.
Outside me, what can I do to help make a change?
It’s hard to be outside.
Inside my room, where you told me your stories,
sung me sweet lullabies, to send me to sleep.
Inside my heart, you put love and protection.
You've given me strength, so I could choose life.
Outside me, a world of joy, a world of pain, I didn’t realize.
Outside me, I had to go there, so that I could see with my own eyes.
Outside me, what can I do to help make a change?
It's hard to be outside of me...
Like the leaves, I will give myself to the wind.
No matter where I go, let the future come in.
It’s hard to be outside me, it’s hard to be outside.

CHA CHANGO
[Tzuke/Goodes]


Each Monday morning I can't see the light of day, can't bring my spirit up...
Then Tuesday comes around, I still feel lost, not found the way to make it pay...
Every hour I'm working hard, filling up an empty heart, life is good but not right now, 'till I break the chains...
Cha Cha Cha Chango, moving it up slow, in front of the TV with nobody but my shadow dancing with me,

I'm in a daydream,
that's how I know the power of letting go, the power of Cha Chango...
Wednesday I'm hanging on, Thursday four days are gone, they'll never come again...
Friday night I fall asleep, weary from the heavy week, when I blow the candle out, turn the weekend on...
Cha Cha Cha Chango, moving it up slow, in front of the TV with nobody but my shadow dancing with me, I'm in a daydream, that's how I know the power of letting go, the power of Cha Chango...
It's then that I get to show, pretending I'm someone else, living, living in another world...
The power of Cha Chango, the power of letting go...

ANGEL
[Tzuke/Reeves]


I didn’t realize what I was thinking, all I knew was, that on my own I was strong.
I really didn’t know that something was missing; I was always trying to right a wrong.
Lift me up to your feeling world; let me look at it all from in your eyes.
You see it so clean and new.
You’re the vision I run to.
Be my angel, safe here inside, nothing to hide, be my, angel.
Be my, angel. Under your wing everything is alright.
I found the feather that you left on the window, a piece of heaven that will keep me close to home.
You remind me of a place I’d forgotten, a little innocence of my own.
You’re the reason I’m standing here, you are everything good I’ve ever known.
Now my direction is crystal clear, ‘Cos in your light I know I’ve grown.
Be my, angel. Safe here inside, nothing to hide, be my, angel.
Be my, angel. Under your wing everything is alright.
‘Cos you opened my eyes, to the beauty inside,
From within your arms, I do believe that I can fly.

CHASING SWEET DREAMS
[Tzuke/ Goodes]


When the worlds a bit off to the left
And your day isn’t into gear yet, I’ll be trying to focus on you
If I close my eyes and think about your face
I know wherever I am becomes a better place
When the sun goes down and your lights still shining
When the door is closed, your windows always open and
Blowing in the trees, floating in the breeze
I’ll be chasing sweet dreams
I’ll be chasing sweet dreams
I don’t know if I told you before, you are all that I wanted and more
Everything that I hoped you could be and it may take some time
to make you feel the same
But I’d go anywhere with you to see you again
When the sun goes down and your lights still shining
When the door is closed your windows always open and
Blowing in the trees, floating in the breeze
I’ll be chasing sweet dreams
I’ll be chasing sweet dreams

MY LIFE BREAKING DOWN
[Tzuke/ Kearns/ Gates]


Sitting here all alone waiting for my train to come
My phone rests beside me but you don’t call to tell me not to go
I see a couple holding hands laughing and making plans
Maybe a honeymoon or a brief encounter in a hotel room
It’s passing by and I’m trying to figure out where I fit in
And I don’t know why I keep crashing into walls that are paper-thin
And I don’t see the ground
And I won’t look up and I can’t look down
Is the world still turning around?
As all I hear spinning in my head is the sound
Of my life breaking down
It’s raining, the papers wet
Everyone’s in a hurry to get somewhere
I don’t know where I’m going
Different faith’s different race
We’re all the same just a different face but I’m lonely
This wasn’t how I wanted it to be
It’s passing by and I’m trying to figure out where I fit in
And I don’t know why I keep crashing into walls that are paper-thin
And I don’t see the ground
And I won’t look up and I can’t look down
Is the world still turning around?
As all I hear spinning in my head is the sound
Of my life breaking down just the sound of my life breaking down

SPOTLIGHT
[Judie Tzuke / David P Goodes]


I was afraid of everything,
I lost control with the fear your presence brings 

I was scared, too many nights gone by where
I was alone and tired of life...
The Spotlight's on and it's shining down
I feel the burn of a heady day's sun
If your aim is true, there's a chance for me and you
I'm going to run with the strange idea... That you could be the one
Lost in a cold and lonely place
No one to show me the road to a better place
You stepped in and pulled me back here and then
The way was clear, the time had come...
The Spotlights on and it's shining down
I feel the burn of a heady day's sun
If your aim is true
There’s a chance for me and you
I'm going to run with the strange idea...
That you could be the one
Hold your hand up to me; you could be the one
Who changes everything, there's no limit to what we could be...

SO EMOTIONAL
[Tzuke/Kearns/Parks]


It’s too easy to say that nothing feels right
I could make some lame excuse and say I’ll be better tonight
Or let you go on thinking that it’s something you've done
But it’s nothing between us and there’s no guilty one
But there are sometimes there's no way to explain
And there's no rhyme or reason for the way that I’m feeling this pain
I just get so emotional so emotional
And there's no way off the floor and there's no one else's door to lay the blame
Keep my eyes closed these tears weren’t meant to be seen
I’m fragile like a small bird caught in the wind
And I won’t pretend anymore to anyone
It’s just one of those days and there’s no guilty one
But there are sometimes there's no way to explain
And there's no rhyme or reason for the way that I’m feeling this pain
I just get so emotional, so emotional
And there's no way off the floor and there's no one else’s door to lay the blame
And there are sometimes there's no way to explain
And there's no rhyme or reason for the way that I’m feeling this pain
I just get so emotional, so emotional
And there's no way off the floor and there's no one else’s door to lay the blame
And there's no way off the floor and there's no one else’s door to lay the blame
So emotional

1.2.3.4.
(Tzuke/Gordeno)


I know it won’t be easy
But I swear I can feel it
And you and I are almost home
Let go the past is over
The days are flying by us
The empty moments they will soon be gone
I’m trying to hold my breath
I’m counting
One Two Three Four
I know
We’re not the first to fall
And we won't be the last
I couldn't love you more
So don't ask
You’ve always been the one
You didn’t have to try
When all is said and done
Don't say goodbye
Don't say goodbye
Mistakes we made so many
But we can still repair them
Put back the pieces of the damage done
I’m looking further forwards
Behind the clouds I’m sure there’s
A brighter sun it can’t be gone
Hold on it won’t be long
Keep counting
One Two Three Four
I know
We’re not the first to fall
And we won't be the last
I couldn't love you more
So don't ask
You’ve always been the one
You didn’t have to try
When all is said and done
Don't say goodbye
Don't say goodbye

LOOKING
Tzuke/Parks/Kearns


Some days are harder than others
Mountains we climb to get things done
Trying to make sense of the way I'm feeling
Looking for sanctuary but finding none
You're in my head, you're in my heart
Too busy to stop, too late to start
I don't wanna hear you crying
But I have to say goodbye
Baby you won't listen when I really need you to
And maybe you don't hear when I get to talk to you
I know that you need me more than I need you
But don't ask so much of me, it's what you always do
You're looking for water in a well you've run dry
You're looking for water in a well you've run dry
Some people are stronger than others
One smile can make somebody cry
Hiding away won't make it easier
Taking your hand, but I’m asking why
You're in my head, you're in my heart
Too busy to stop, too late to start
I don't wanna hear you crying
But I have to say goodbye
Baby you won't listen when I really need you to
And maybe you don't hear when I get to talk to you
I know that you need me more than I need you
But don't ask so much of me, it's what you always do
You're looking for water in a well you've run dry
You're looking for water in a well you've run dry
Don't you ever listen?
I really need you to
You're in my head, you're in my heart
Baby you won't listen when I really need you to
And maybe you don't hear when I get to talk to you
I know that you need me more than I need you
But don't ask so much of me, it's what you always do
You're looking for water in a well you've run dry
You're looking for water in a well you've run dry

UGLY
[Tzuke/ Goodes/ Wisker]


Now you’ve spoken spitting evils
Knowing how they hurt
Yes I’m broken I’m in pieces
I can’t find the words
You won’t see me I’ll be leaving
Just don’t follow me, I’ve had enough
This isn’t what I wanted
This isn’t where I thought that we would be
You’ve taken something I loved
Tore it up and threw it back at me
You say that I’m alone now, cos it’s not if but when he’s gonna leave
You’ve taken something beautiful,
Made it ugly
You don’t care if I don’t listen
You will have your way
Glad to see the back of us
You’ll be sorry one day
You don’t see it
That I’m not wrong this time
Stop controlling me, with all the lies
This isn’t what I wanted
This isn’t where I thought that we would be
You’ve taken something I loved
Tore it up and threw it back at me
You say that I’m alone now, cos it’s not if but when he’s gonna leave
You’ve taken something beautiful,
Made it ugly

GET OUT
[Tzuke/ Kearns/ Parks]


Watching us over the other side
Keeping you from being too close, not too tight
I’ve got to know that I can escape if it goes that way
I need a get out, looking for a way out
When it all goes so right
I expect it to go wrong
If there's a cloud there somewhere
I'll be under it before too long
'Cause I never wanted anyone more than you
Eyes so blue like an angel's tears I fall in to
I could find the rain in the desert
It's what I do when I need a way out, I'm looking for a get out
Never know why I get so scared
Too much emotion makes me too aware
I have to know I can be safe alone
Always need a way out, looking for a get out
When it all goes so right
I expect it to go wrong
If there's a cloud there somewhere
I'll be under it before too long
But I never wanted anyone more than you
Eyes so blue like an angel's tears I fall in to
I could find the rain in the desert
It's what I do when I need a way out, I'm looking for a get out
But you feel so right and it feels so good
I don't think I'd run even if I could
'Cause I never wanted anyone more than you
Eyes so blue like an angel's tears I fall in to
I could find my way in the desert
It's what I do when I need a way out, I'm looking for a get out
But, I never wanted anyone more than you
Eyes so blue like an angel's tears I fall in to
I could find the rain in the desert
It's what I do when I need a way out, I'm looking for a get out
When I need a way out, I'm looking for a get out
When I need a way out, I'm looking for a get out

DEAR LIFE 

Featuring Peter Gordeno
[Tzuke/ Arciero]


I don’t want to let you down
But isn’t it natural to cry
When your blue sky
Leaves with the tide
Because we hold hands when we close down
And we don’t know to let go when times out
So we hold on for dear life
It’s just fear
Pulling us back when you know
Life goes on
You don’t have to sit this out
Moving on and realize
Change is the rule not every wound bleeds
So we hold hands when we close down
And we don’t know to let go when times out
So we hold on for dear life
It’s just fear
Pulling us back when you know
Life goes on
