You need drive
(you need drive, you need drive)
To survive

Well tomorrow was yesterday

2. Shadow Winds

[Verse 1:]
They say that a shadow is a reflection of your soul
Searching for the starting line where the winds have blown

They say - that you can't even
They say - learn to know
They say - if you want believe
They say - let your feelings go

Shadow Winds
Shadow Winds, start to blow
Shadow Winds
Shadow Winds, the place to go

[Chorus 1:]
Can't conceive - what I believe
Shadow Winds - you won't receive
Can't conceive - what I believe
Shadow Winds - You won't receive

[Verse 2:]
Shadow Winds go on and on
Your at war with your own con
Soul searching is what you do
Keep your hope and keep your crew

[Chorus 2:]
Shadow Winds blow on and on
Blazing force with a blazing cause
Shadow Winds blow far beyond
Your identity

[Verse 3:]
When it comes to the bottom line
Go beyond where the sun does shine
Shining bright so you can see
The sun's warmth will set you free

[Repeat Chorus]

[Verse 4:]
Living in a world of confusion
To be yourself is my law
Just because socially you rule
It becomes your biggest flaw
I never thought you would listen
Surprises are all welcomed
I'm glad to see that you have found yourself
And that happens pretty seldom

[Repeat Verse 3]

[Repeat Chorus] 2

3. Fired (You're)

[Verse 1:]
So beautiful, so bright
Once upon a time, I was right
You knew everything, Yes, you did
You know nothing, so place your bid

[Chorus:]
You're Fired
You're Fired
That's right you're fired

[Verse 2:]
You have weak friends
That's right
Maybe it's time you learn
How to fight

[Chorus:]
You're Fired
You're Fired
You're Fired

[Verse 3:]
What do you want from me?
I'm sorry for my honesty
Self-Infliction is your game
For your ago that's pretty lame
You must accept who you are
If you do, you'll go far
Knowledge is your key to life
No one's there with a knife
You're no young, why you trip?
When you're old you will flip
Feeling bad, feeling good
Can you stop, I wish you would
You say to me, save your breath
Keep it up, welcome death
You say to me, save your breath
Keep it up, welcome death

[Chorus:]
You're Fired
That's right, You're Fired
You're Fired

[Verse 4:]
Feeling lonely
Dying slowly
You have got nowhere to turn
Speaking to you
Can't get through you
You have blocked the outside world...

4. Tapping Into The Emotional Void

[Intro:]
I base my life like a raging flame of events that seem all to much the same
And I'm aware of my behavior
Have I realized that I'm my own savior

[Verse 1:]
I'm losing much of my mind
I'm wasting all of my time
I'm almost over the edge
Please push me off this hell edge
And I'm aware of the things
I knew that exist in my head
Meditate, revelate
I say a prayer by my bed

[Chorus 1:]
Tapping, Tapping, Tapping

[Verse 2:]
I sailed across the seas
For soul identity
The only soul I found
Protect my feet from the ground
And I'm aware of the things
I know exist in my head
Meditate, revelate
I say a prayer by my bed

[Repeat Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2:]
Look in your mind - Tapping
See what I find - Tapping
When it is true - Tapping
When I see you - Tapping

[Verse 3:]
I ran away from my fears
I will not cry any tears
You might see that I'm right
That dream might be in sight
Now we all need something
To help us through thick and thin
Now get up, now get out
That's what I've been doin'

[Repeat Chorus 1]

5. Affection Blends With Resentment

[Verse 1:]
What I see is hypnotize
The things I see are paralyzed
You never tend to emphasize
My views of love have no disguise
[Repeat]

[Verse 2:]
Give and take seems to rule
Never again will I be fooled
Give and take seems to rule
Never again will I be fooled

Affection blends with resentment
Affection blends with resentment

[Verse 3:]
I won't let you fool me
Can't you see I control my own life
Can't you see I control my own life

[Chorus:]
Affection always blends
Affection always blends
Affection always blends
Affection always blends

Pain never ends
Pain never ends
Pain never ends
Pain never ends

You lied
You lie to me now

6. Seeing Insane

[Verse 1:]
Seaing insane
What is there to see?
Does it make sense?
What does it mean?

[Chorus:]
You can hear it
You can feel it
You can see it

[Verse 2:]
Beautiful sky crying to die
Beautiful seas cry tearfully
Strollin' the beach
All the waste comes in
That's all you see
Marine life dies
God's creations die chemically

[Repeat Chorus]

[Verse 3:]
Look at our dying world
I'd rather die before
Life takes it toll
I'd rather die before
Look at our dying world
I'd rather die before
Life takes it toll
I'd rather die before
I'd rather die before

I just don't know why...

7. My Thoughts

Tired of all the excuses for not excepting EXCEL
You're just waiting for some friend to lift off your shell
The bitterness inside me gets stronger and bigger each year
Now you sit down and tell me who is the one to fear

Who the one
Who the one

I wish I could sit down and shake hands with my inner-self
Sign a contract stating that I'm at peace with myself
But I know it's not the case at hand
I should try to live a normal life while I still can

Who the one
Who the one

Now I live for my views
And you can take it as a few
But obviously you are wrong
Now kick it and hear my song
You've known me all your life
And my feelings you begin to site
So please hear me out
Cuz I'm right and there's no doubt

Tired of excuses - These are
For not accepting EXCEL
These are my thoughts!
You're just wailing - I think
Someone lift your shell - You're lost
Bitterness inside me - These are
Bigger and stronger each year
These are my thoughts!
Now you just sit down - I think
Tell me who's the one to fear -You're lost

Wish I could sit down - These are
Shake hands with my inner-self
These are my thoughts!
Sign a contract stating - I think
That I'm at peace with myself - GO!!

8. I Never Denied

There has been a question circling in my mind
About the feelings that I cannot find
What I want to know is why I view this way
Is this the image you want to portray?

My friends say, "Dan, why are you so negative?"
I say it's the world in which I live
They say, "Dan, why are you so negative?"
I say that it's the world in which I live - GO!

Give it a go
Give it a shot
That's what they say

I never denied
Giving it a try
So get off my back

Do all you can
Live up your life
So get off my back

I never denied
Living my life
So forget all those thoughts

Rock Out!

Give It a go
Give it a shot
That's what they say

I never denied
Giving it a try
So give it a rest

Do all you can
Live up your life
So I've been told

I never denied
Living my past
So die all your thoughts

Rock Out!

There has been a question in my mind
About the feelings that I cannot find
I never denied
I never denied
There has been a question in my mind
About the feelings that I cannot find
I never denied
I never denied

Questions I cannot find - I never denied
Feelings I cannot find - I never denied
Why you view this way - I never denied
Image want to portray - I never denied

LATES!!!

9. Message In A Bottle

[Originally released by The Police]

Just a cast-away, an island lost at sea, oh
Another lonely day, with no one here but me, oh
More loneliness than any man could bear
Rescue me before I fall into despair, oh

[Chorus:]
I'll send an S.O.S. to the world
I'll send an S.O.S. to the world
I hope that someone gets my...
I hope that someone gets my...
I hope that someone gets my...
...Message in a bottle, oh-oh
...Message in a bottle

A year has passed since I wrote my note
But I should have known this right from the start
Only hope can keep me together
Love can mend your life but love only break your heart

[Repeat Chorus]

Sending out at an S.O.S.
Sending out at an S.O.S.
Sending out at an S.O.S.
Sending out at an S.O.S.
Sending out at an S.O.S.
Sending out at an S.O.S.

10. Given Question

[Verse 1:]
At one time, we tried to run away
It was a time, of love and hate
After a while, things begin to change
Now our minds, do not relate

[Verse 2:]
Look high, look low
That's what you've been doing
To figure out
What has happened

[Chorus:]
Given questions, there no answers
Given questions, there no answers

[Verse 3:]
I said lack, don't you mess with this
The question was there and we answered it
I said lack, don't you mess with this
The question was there and we answered it

Repeat Verse 2

[Repeat Chorus]

Just look around
There is nothing
Just look around
For what it is worth
Just look around
There is nothing

[Repeat Verse 1]

[Repeat Chorus]

11. The Stranger

[Verse 1:]
He's walking in the dark
The dogs begin to bark
Through the window he looked at you
Now there's nothing you can do

[Chorus:]
He is on a state of depression
We compound to his alienation

[Verse 2:]
The Stranger lives far away
No one wants him here to stay
Disappointment, fear and hate
Is what he relates

[Repeat Chorus]

[Verse 3:]
No one - knows who he is
No one - knows where he lives
No one - knows the danger
No one - knows the stranger

[Repeat Chorus]

[Repeat Verse 3]

[Verse 4:]
He can be your dad
He can be your neighbor
Even you can end up
Like The Stranger...

You that I am living in a trapped buried life
I need some help, you turn away, you deny
I feel so lonely, I know I need to move on
I've lost my house and home through the system
So if the system works, has it banned me?
Living on the street with nothing to eat
I had a family who now shames me
No second chances, no way to be free
With some of us, our stories may vary
The bottom line is, love is necessary
I drill to you, I ask for no pity
Just don't ignore, the homeless in your city
