I said goodbye, turned around
Thought I had it all figured out
When I still had alot to learn
And nearly every bridge was burned

So I started out, on my own
Kept telling myself that I was grown
Started out for God knows where
And that's when He found me there

And I believe
That this place is not my home
I'm just passing through
It's just another stepping stone
I believe that he has greater plans
One heart divided
And one set of footprints in the sand
Yes its true I believe in You
Oh I believe in you

This cross is getting heavy
I can't stand to bear the pain
You pick me up when I fall down
And set me on my feet again

This world is getting scary
But I'm leaving it all behind
For a day will come Lord I'm waiting
For a blink of an eye

And I believe
That this place is not my home
I'm just passing through
It's just another stepping stone
I believe that You have greater plans
One heart divided
And one set of footprints in the sand
Yes its true I believe in You
Oh I believe in you

You're the kind of high
                  That addicts are after.

You're worth more than just pretty words.
You're worth the truth in them.

I got bored trying to **** time.

The Doctor will be here soon.
I just have to wait a few more days.
"Hes not coming for you." Shut up!
He's got my discharge papers.
He'll sign them, and I'll get to go home!
I get to leave! He promised.
"You're not getting out of here." AHH!
You know, being in here for a few days,
I thought I'd go a little crazy.
But what's three days shy of ten years?
Look at me! Have you seen
What darkness does to a person?
It makes them mad.
My friends aren't with me anymore.
They got well. But I'm not alone.
Hey buddy. Are you my friend?
Why are you saying
The same thing that I'm saying?
Stop staring at me!
Ten years is a long time
When the only people you talk to
Are the ones that aren't even there?
"We're here." Go Away!
I'm ready to go doctor.
What? What do you mean
Mentally unstable?
What do you mean I have to stay?
No! You promised me! You lied to me!
"Why did you **** him?" Shut up!
"He had your papers." Leave me alone!
"You're never getting out of here now."
*******! *******! Empty promises!
"You belong to us." AHH!
"Say Hello to the nice people."
I don't wanna! I don't wanna!
I don't wanna! I don't wanna!


I'm sorry....Have I said something?

Dear Humans
Where have you gone
We haven't heard
From you in so long

Things sure are different
Than they were yesterday
You've put all your notes
And your telescopes away

We can't rhyme
Trapped in space and time
You've put on another face
And you should see
Our spaceship shine

Dear Humans
We're still here
But we really don't want
To go down there

You always thought
We would destroy
The human race
Our hands are clean
We haven't left our place

Dear Humans
We saw a satellite float away
And it reminded us
To send this message today

We can't rhyme
Trapped in space and time
You've put on another face
And you should see
Our spaceship shine

Dear Humans
We have the blues
Were tired of being
Yesterday's news

What would it take
For you to look into the sky
With tears in our eyes
You can see us wave goodbye

We can't rhyme
Trapped in space and time
You've put on another face
And you should see
Our spaceship shine

I guess there are those
Who live inside their radios
To escape from the pain
In the world that weve all come to know

Then there are those
In need a womans gentle touch
For when life pulls us down
And it all gets to be too much

They hide in their rooms
Hide in their minds
Can't seem to read between the lines
When the hard times fall
You know music says it all

They play it in the bars
Among the broken hearts
In the jukebox on the wall
Where the long shadows fall
You know music says it all

Underneath the stars
The city lights dont shine so bright
So hold on to the love
And hold on with all our might

You may be just
Another face in the crowd
But you can't see the sunshine
If you never come around

They hide in their rooms
Hide in their minds
Can't seem to read between the lines
When the hard times fall
You know music says it all

They play it in the bars
Among the broken hearts
In the jukebox on the wall
Where the long shadows fall
You know music says it all

When you've taken the fall
You know music says it all

When the curtain calls
You know music says it all

What would you do
If you were me?
How many mouths
Would you try to feed
Would you walk on water
To rescue those in need
What would you do
If you were me?

What would you say
About these times
Would you cross over the lines
And put down their signs
Would you make darkness hide
And let your light shine
What would you say
About these times?

Because I'm trying Lord
But I'm just a man
I could use a word from you
To tell me what you had planned
Do they know we're there
Do they know we care?
Help me to see
Everything I'm called to be
What would you do
If you were me


You've done it all
I've heard before
You forgave the rich
And you loved the poor
And they were so amazed
When you calmed the storm
You've done it all
I've heard before

I've heard the story
A thousand times
The lame could walk
And He once was blind
But there's still one thing
I dont realize
Why you would die
When the debt was mine
I've heard the story
A thousand times


Because I'm trying Lord
But I'm just a man
I could use a word from you
To tell me what you had planned
Do they know we're there
Do they know we care?
Help me to see
Everything I'm called to be
What would you do
If you were me
