Stand Up lyrics - Five For Fighting
If you write a tragedy
where you can't be saved
If your dreams put you asleep
Cause your bed is made
Stand Up Stand Up
Stand Up Stand Up
Cause you're falling down
If you have to paint your face
and you're not a clown
If you're naked lost in space
And all you wears a frown
Stand Up Stand Up
Stand Up Stand Up
Cause you're falling down
Stand Up Stand Up
Stand Up Stand Up
Before you hit the ground
There is no perfect man
We are just who I am
If you don't understand
Well don't give up
Cause one and one is two
Enough to get us through
If I can count on you
To just stand up
Can anybody out there hear me, hear me
Can anybody out there hear me, hear me
Stand Up Stand Up
Cause you're falling down
Stand Up Stand Up
Before you hit the ground
Stand Up Stand Up
Cause you're falling down
Stand Up Stand Up
Before you hit the ground
If you have to paint your face
And you're not a clown
If you're naked lost in space
And the world lets you down
If you write a tragedy
where you can't be saved
What If lyrics - Five For Fighting
Threw a line out to pull you to me
If you don't get it, then you don't get it
You made your mind up before you knew me
If you don't get it, then you don't get it
Take my hand for a minute
We're in it - imagine all the pain that might be forgiven
What if I had your heart?
What if you wore my scars?
How would we break down?
What if you were me and what if I were you?
What if you told my lies?
What if I cried with your eyes?
Could anyone keep us down?
What if you were me? What if I were you?
Had a dream of a new tomorrow
If you don't get it, then you don't get it
I took a step hoping you might follow
If you don't get it, then you don't get it
Take a chance for a minute. Jump in it
Imagine if you asked yourself for a minute
What if I had your heart?
What if you wore my scars?
How would we break down?
What if you were me and what if I were you?
What if you told my lies?
What if I cried with your eyes?
Could anyone keep us down?
What if you were me? And what if I were you?
To the ones who make it better, find to get out, gotta touch the other side
What if all that it took to save our lives together was to rise up...
(Hey!)
What if I had your heart?
What if you wore my scars?
How would we break down (break down)?
And what if I were you?
What if I told your lies?
What if you cried with my eyes?
Could anyone keep us down?
What if you were me? What if I were you?
What if your hand was my hand?
Could you hold on or let go?
What if your life was my life?
Can you love what we don't know?
What if your hand was my hand?
Could we hold on or let go?
What if your life was my life?
And what if I were you?
Heaven Knows lyrics - Five For Fighting
There's no time to waste
In this famous goodbye
There's Angels landing on the shore
So lay down with me
Let the river run dry
It's Sunday in the six-day war
Smile darling don't be sad
Stars are going to shine tonight
Tell me where the good men go
Before I wash away
Walk me down the old brick road
So I can die where I met you
Hold me like we're going home
Turn your tears to rain
Bury me beautiful
Heaven knows how I loved you
There's a children's choir in perfect parade
Singing like they found the Lord
I can't say it they'll let me in
But we can dance the way we did
High above up the seventh floor
Smile darling don't be sad
Stars are going to shine tonight
Tell me where the good men go
Before I wash away
Walk me down the old brick road
So I can die where I met you
Hold me like we're going home
Turn your tears to rain
Bury me beautiful
Heaven knows how I loved you
And how I loved you
Father hear your Son
Do the good die young
Did I raise you up, raise you up
Make you Proud
Let the sun go out
Tear the bridges down
I'm on my way, on my way
I'm going home
Home
Tell me where the good men go
Before I wash away
Walk me down the old brick road
So I can die where I met you
Hold me like we're going home
Turn your tears to rain
Bury me beautiful
Heaven knows how I loved you
Tell me where the good men go
Before I wash away
Walk me down the old brick road
So I can die where I met you
Hold me like we're going home
Turn your tears to rain
Bury me beautiful
Heaven knows how I loved you
Heaven Knows
Down lyrics - Five For Fighting
Hey good looking
What you got cooking
I can see but I can't find the light
Please forgive me
If I don't have a smile to smile tonight
Don't you know
Life ain't pictures and words
And I don't care if you know that I'm hurting cause
I wont let you get me down
I wont let you get me down
This time around
I see you're happy
Out there laughing
Must be nice to have your sweet revenge
I might be crazy
But I think I won this in the end, the end
Don't you know I can build my own house
You can try, but you can't throw me out because
I wont let you get me down
I wont let you get me down
They say you don't get what you want
But you get what you need
I don't know who they are
Or how they believe it
The truths in the tears
The fire and the fears
I'm standing on
I wont let you get me down
I wont let you get me down
I wont let you get me down
I wont let you get me down
This time around
I Don't Want Your Love lyrics - Five For Fighting
If I lived so long to be the last man alive
My heart would never change
If I had the choice between a million eyes
I'd see you just the same
It's no secret you're the one for me
It's obvious to all
But, I don't want your love
I don't want your love
You say that providence brought me to you
That you would be my wife
Together we could start a family
And live a decent life
There's nothing more I'd rather say to you
Than swear the words I do
But, I don't want your love
No, I don't want your love
I would kill
I would die for you
I always will be true
If I could fix this thing you know that I would
But, only you can do
Cause it don't matter how much you love me
Or how I might love you
I don't want your love
I don't want your love
I don't want your love
My love
Until you love you too
Road To You lyrics - Five For Fighting
I can't believe how I love you
You'll be the last
You'll be the last turn I take
All of the signs are in color
Baby, I'm on my way
I hear a song on the radio
And it sounds like something I miss
But, I don't need those old melodies
With you on my lips
I was born a fool on the run
I've broken hearts and lost at love
There's not one thing I would change or undo
Cause all my life's been a road to you
Watching you walk down the aisle
Every step, every step takes a year
Baby, you can count on the man
That's standing right here
Today is the way to forever
I made a map to find you when you're alone
Wherever we've been don't matter
We're this close to home
I was born a fool on the run
I've broken hearts and lost at love
There's not one thing I would change or undo
Cause all my life's been a road to you
Road to you
Road to you
I was born a fool on the run
I've broken hearts and lost at love
There's not one thing I would change or undo
Cause all my life's been a road to you
I was born a fool on the run
I've broken hearts and lost at love
There's not one thing I would change or undo
Cause all my life's been a road to you
She's My Girl lyrics - Five For Fighting
She turns wine to water
She's nobody's daughter
A stranger to the lovers at her feet
She makes potions between kisses
And wishes on the sun
Because the stars late at night she can't see
She's my best friend
She's standing right beside me
I've waited my whole life
For somebody to find me
I know you don't like her
But she's my girl
She's better than ice cream
I know you know what I mean
Better than the real thing
She can make my heart scream
She's my girl
She's my girl
There's beauty in disaster
You can just ask her
But you wont like what you will hear
Her name has stitches between letters
Goes on forever
In a skyline rainbow made of tears
She's my best friend
She's standing right beside me
I've waited my whole life
For somebody to find me
I know you don't like her
But she's my girl
She's better than ice cream
I know you know what I mean
Better than the real thing
She can make my heart scream
She's my girl
She's my girl
We all need someone to love
Fire to touch
Reasons to rise above the cold
In a paralyzed world
It's not enough to pretend alone
She's my girl
She's better than ice cream
I know you know what I mean
Better than the real thing
She can make my heart scream
She's my girl
She's my best friend
She's standing right beside me
I've waited my whole life
For somebody to find me
I know you don't like her
But she's my girl
She's better than ice cream
I know you know what I mean
Better than the real thing
She can make my heart scream
She's my girl
She's my girl
She's my girl
Symphony Lane lyrics - Five For Fighting
Symphony Lane is a private court
That runs away from you
Symphony Lane is made out of notes
Silent as they're true
Symphony Lane is a shaded drag
With one house on the block
Park your car at the violins
Leave your heart unlocked
It's all around you, oh
It's all around you, oh
It's all around you
Overtures
Symphony Lane has sidewalks of gold
Providing no escape
Symphony Lane is one hundred years old
Born just yesterday
She's all around you, oh
It's all around you, oh
It's all around you
Overtures
It's all around you, oh
It's all around you, oh
It's all around you
Overtures
Symphony Lane is a one-way road
Wide enough for two
Symphony Lane is the only hope
I'm holding out for you
Symphony Lane is straight up ahead
Right around the bend
Think too fast
Drive too slow
You'll miss her once again
You'll miss her once again
You'll miss her once again
You'll Never Change lyrics - Five For Fighting
I know you have big plans ahead
Alterations
Filling up your mind
A little patience
Before you start to sand these corners
I'm warning you
I know you've put down
Our second chapter
But as an actor
Darling read between the lines
Before you take up the role of the reformer
You'll never change
You'll never change
Change me
You know I have this deep desire
For how you're wired
Intrigues me to no end
And I'm willing to do what I can do
Push the boundaries
Hang your picture
Mix your mixture
But don't expect to fix the color, the color of my eyes
You'll never change
You'll never change
Change me
Is it so wrong to be strong
Change
Change
You'll never change
You'll never change
Change me
I know you have big plans ahead
Your Man lyrics - Five For Fighting
Let me be clear
Look in my eyes
Don't ask me why
They've gone from brown to blue
Let yourself in
Don't be surprised
In what you find
All that you see is true
I don't want to have a horse in the running
I don't want to spread the news of the storm that is a coming
I don't want to be a saint on your shoulder
I don't want to be young
Be another day older
I don't want to be the son of a better man
I don't want to love you any more than the best I can
I just want to be your man
Old fairy tales built up on lies
Meant to disguise what we have left to lose
Turn me to stone
Offer me twice
Into the fire
Into the fire I choose
I don't want to have a horse in the running
I don't want to spread the news of the storm that is a coming
I don't want to be a saint on your shoulder
I don't want to be young
Be another day older
I don't want to be the son of a better man
I don't want to love you any more than the best I can
I just want to be your man
Your man
Daddy was a fool when he walked out on the wire
Waited for the wind, the wind was on fire
She took him at his word and they never turned back
Never turned back again
I don't want to be a saint on your shoulder
I don't want to be young
Another day older
I don't want to be the son of a better man
I don't want to love you any more than the best I can
I just want, I want, I want to be your man (I wanna be your man)
I don't want to be a horse in the running
But I could spread the news, a new day is coming
All I need to find is the place on your shoulder
Baby we could grow young, yeah we could grow older
We could have a son who's a better man
With baby blues eyes
Don't you understand
I just want to be your man
The Day I Died lyrics - Five For Fighting
I woke up
You next to me
You said Good Morning
Are you Free
The sun crept in
For one last time
I was alive the day I died
The clock struck noon
But did not care
I saw a child
In my old chair
A shadow fell across your face
But all the years
Could not erase
I was alive, I was alive
You pulled me close
I held you tight
Though my smiles told a few lies
I was alive the day I died
I was the first to see a star
It seemed so close
It was so far
Wind started to roar
Screamed time to go
You know all you need
You need all you know
I was alive, I was alive
You pulled me close
I held you tight
And though our smiles told a few lies
I was alive the day I died
Oh Sweet Angel you call
Oh Sweet Angel you call
Oh Sweet Angel
White went black
Black went white
Universe cracked
I saw the light
You called my name
I did not respond
But I heard you well
Carried you on
Midnight came and I was gone
The planet shrugged and moved along
A few people noticed and sang my songs
I was alive the day I died
I was alive the day I died
