Track 2
Crush

Been alone for a while now
Seems I've lost my heart
In my dreams we have everything
But in truth we are so far

I know that you are scared of me
I know that you will never be
In love with me like I'm with you
In love with me like I'm with you

Tears streaming down my face
It happens all the time
How do you find the broken piece
When your heart's beating out of time?

You know that I am scared of you
You know that I will never do
Anything to hurt you
Even if I can't have you

Hey that crush is breaking your heart
He's crushing your heart x 4

Track 4
Touch

Oh I used to be alone now I only think about you
Every night I spend alone now I only dream about you
Oh I always sleep alone now I dream I’m sleeping with you
Oh I used to be alone
Used to be alone

Let me stand beside you
let me love and heal you
Let me stand beside you
let me love and heal you
tell me what you're feeling 
tell me all the things
tell me all the things you're afraid to say

I used to be alone now I only think about you
Every night I spend alone now I only dream about you
Oh I always sleep alone now I dream I’m sleeping with you
Oh I used to be alone
Used to be alone

Let me stand beside you
let me love and heal you
let me stand beside you
let me love and heal you
Do you dream of me too?
Do you see me with you?
I’ll tell you all the things I’m afraid to say

Cos I want to tell you everything I'm feeling
Everytime you touch me
Everytime you touch me
Cos I want to tell you everything I'm feeling
Everytime you touch me
Everytime you touch me
Cos when you love me it's like

[solo]

Used to be alone
Used to be alone
Do you dream of me too?
Do you see me with you?
Do you dream of me too?

Track 7
Destruct

My whole life has changed
just overnight
I don't know who to be I don't know what to seek
Memories rushing in
they blur my sight
I laugh so I don't cry, I laugh so I don't cry

Though he's on his knees I say good bye
Such bigger things at hand
He cannot understand so he

Self destructs Self destructs Self destructs
So he
Self destructs Self destructs Self destructs

All I want is to heal these scars heal these scars
And from him I will run so far run so far run so far

Run so far that I can't recollect
And when I see his face
My heart won't start to race
He will not bring me down
Although he tried
I'll find a stronger man who takes my hand so I don't

Self destruct Self destruct Self destruct
I don't
Self destruct Self destruct Self destruct

All I want is to heal these scars heal these scars
And from him I will run so far run so far
Run so run so far
Run so run so far
All of the things I have sacrificed to be who I am
All of the things I have sacrificed to be where I am
All of the things I have sacrificed to follow my dreams
All of the things I will sacrifice to follow my dreams

And I'm moving on, on (x 4)

All I want is to heal these scars
So I don't self destruct
All I want is to heal these scars
So I don't self destruct
All I want is to heal these scars
So I don't self destruct
All I want is to heal these scars
So I don't self destruct

Track 8
Connection

I have to follow what I feel
accept my ups forgive my downs
and with an open heart I keep
my feet on the ground

He taught me love he taught me strife
took my hand and held on tight
and through his pain I came to see
I could set myself free

we had a real real real real connection
it was a true true true true reflection
we only get what we're ready for

He pulled me out of my world
and from the truth we would run
but there's only so long on this earth
before your time is up

we had a real real real real connection
it was a true true true true reflection
we only get what we're ready for

Take me where the river it flows and never comes back
Wash myself of guilt and my woes and now I am free
Take me where the river it flows and never comes back
Wash myself of guilt and my woes and now i am free

I had the weight of our world on my shoulders he never helped me carry it
I had the weight of our world on my shoulders he never helped me carry it
Further away that I run i grow stronger I'll never look back again
Further away that I run i grow stronger I'll never look back again

Oh and how the river it flows and never comes back
Oh and how the river it flows and never comes back
Oh and how the river it flows and never comes back
Oh and how the river it flows and never comes back

Track 10
Patience

I know that we were really close
But at some point we need to grow
Maybe we just weren't meant to be
(Meant to be no, meant to be no)
Maybe in time we both will see

I know that it's hard but
Have a little patience
Have a little patience
I know time heals all so
Have a little patience
Have a little patience

At times I can be so confused
So I step back for a larger view
I find it's best to just sit and wait 
(wait and see yeah wait and see yeah)
The answer the truth it always finds its way

I know that it's hard but
Have a little patience
Have a little patience
I know time heals all so
Have a little patience
Have a little patience

Time to learn time to love
Time to learn time to love
Nothing's good when you hurry
You gotta take time (time to learn, time to love)
Nothing's good when you hurry
You gotta take time (time to learn, time to love)
So much pain in this life we lead
Time to learn time to love
Brave the storm take the time you need
Time to learn time to love
Ups and downs make our life complete
Time to learn time to love
Brave the storm take the time you need
Time to learn time to love
Time to learn time to love

I know that it's hard
Have a little patience
I know time heals all so
Have a little patience

Track 12
Run

The man let the girl go with no self control
you'll never find a love like mine he tells her so
so she feeds her fears believes the man
desperately wants her freedom so she takes a stand

I decided to run away fast as I can go
Run until my feet fail me
I decided to fly away high as I can go
Fly until the sun melts me

She writes she runs she cries she flies
she writes she runs she cries she flies
she writes she runs she cries she flies
she writes she runs she cries she flies

The girl thinks the pain is gone it sneaks up on her
wounds need time to heal this she has learned
the fight is to keep faith alive and put love first
she'll fight until the day she dies pain is only growth

I decided to run away fast as I can go
Run until my feet fail me
I decided to fly away high as I can go
Fly until the sun melts me

She writes she runs she cries she flies
she writes she runs she cries she flies
she writes she runs she cries she flies
she writes she runs she cries she flies

Sooner or later you'll run until you can't no more
sooner or later
Sooner or later you'll run until you can't no more
sooner or later

[solo]

Sooner or later you'll run until you can't no more
sooner or later
Sooner or later you'll run until you can't no more
sooner or later

She writes she runs she cries she flies
she writes she runs she cries she flies
she writes she runs she cries she flies
she writes she runs she cries she flies

Track 14
Young

When I was young they said don’t roam too far
Don’t roam too far then you cannot get lost
When I was young they said don’t fall in love
Don’t fall in love then you can’t break your heart

When I close my eyes
Memories they lie
Leave me wondering why
Why can’t I move on get him out my head
Alone in bed
Much time passes by
Days becoming weeks
All I can think 
Is how everything used to make sense
Back when I was young

When I was young all you had to do was lie
And sweetly smile and everything was alright
When I was young everything was black and white
But now with open eyes I see endless shades

When I close my eyes
Memories they lie
Leave me wondering why
Why can’t I move on get him out my head
Alone in bed
Much time passes by
Days becoming weeks
All I can think 
Is how everything used to make sense
Back when I was young

[guitar solo]

When I close my eyes
Memories they lie
Leave me wondering why
Why can’t I move on get him out my head
Alone in bed
Much time passes by
Days becoming weeks
All I can think 
Is how everything used to make sense
Back when I was young
