You try to find,
you try to find,
you try to find some peace of mind
You look inside,
you look inside,
you look inside, but you won't find
We'll be runnin' through the streets tonight
And we'll be runnin' through the streets tonight
Ah ah ight,
Runnin' through the streets tonight
All this time,
all this time,
all this time, and you don't mind
I won't lie,
I won't lie,
I won't lay another sleepless night
We'll be runnin' through the streets tonight
And we'll be runnin' through the streets tonight
Ah ah ight,
Runnin' through the streets tonight
You got the whole world at your fingertips
But you won't waste another minute of this
The whole world at your fingertips
But we'll be long gone
Buildings being burnt to the ground
People just trying to make a point
Tired of the police breaking the law
And this is the way they raise their voice
I promise this violence isn't the answer
It's the cancer, you're only making things worse
You think the government cares what you say,
when the pigs are getting hurt? You're wrong.
We need peace in these streets
If we're going to make change
I hope you hear this and make a difference
That's my aim
Look how far we’ve came since slaves
But believe me when I say
This is more than just about race… Truth.
Runnin' through the streets tonight
And we'll be runnin' through the streets tonight
Ah ah ight,
Runnin' through the streets tonight
You try to find,
you try to find,
you try to find some peace of mind
You look inside,
you look inside,
you look inside, but you won't find

Was a cold lonely night
Till she held me with all of her might
Oh what a sight
We witnessed the flight
But were we in store, for more
Were we in store, for more?
Never mind the things you say
How could you walk away?
And never mind the things I say
I won’t walk away
And never mind the things you say
How could you walk away?
And never mind the things I say
I won’t walk away
So glad to meet
Her kiss was so sweet
She was so sweet inside
But no maybe I just lied
Cuz how would I know?
I never really got to knowing her
Except for this one
Cold November night
But were we in store, for more
Were we in store, for anything more?
Never mind the things you say
How could you walk away?
Never mind the things I say
I won’t walk away
And never mind the things you say
How could you walk away?
And never mind the things I say
I won’t walk away
But were we in store, for more
Were we in store, for anything more?
Never mind the things you say
How could you walk away?
And never mind the things I say
I won’t walk away
Never mind the things you say
How could you walk away?
Never mind the things I say
Cuz I won’t walk away
But were we in store, for more
Were we in store, for anything more?
I may never know
But I’d like to think so
I may never know
But I’d like to think so
I may never know
But I’d like to think so
I may never know

You say one thing
And that, that means two
You say one thing
Well can’t, you choose?
But you’re a liar liar!
With pants on fire
A liar liar!
I can’t decide from
A liar liar!
I can’t decipher the truth, in you
What’s your name?
Cuz I, I don’t blame
You, for telling me a fake (Why!?)
Cuz he’s a liar liar!
With pants on fire
A liar liar!
I can’t decide from
A liar liar!
I can’t decipher the truth, in you
The truth, in you
Just like, Pinocchio
I’m surprised your nose don’t grow
With all of the things you say
When you, you don’t mean a thing
You’re a liar liar!
With pants on fire
A liar liar!
I can’t decide from
A liar liar!
I can’t decipher the truth, in you
The truth, in you… Why?
Cuz you’re a liar liar!
With pants on fire
A liar liar!
I can’t decide from
A liar liar!
I can’t decipher the truth, in you
The truth, in you

Night Fall
03:17

It’s a mystery
With great history
And you’re telling me
Something I can’t see
About you and me
About me and you
Though there’s nothing,
Nothing I can do
But I can see clearly
The sky falling down on me
The nightfall
The night falling down on me
Yeah the nightfall
Do you ever, wonder?
About the truth, under cover
Does it make you, shudder
Will it make you stutter?
Now I can see clearly
The sky falling down on me
The nightfall
The night falling down on me
The nightfall
Yeah!
I can see clearly
The sky falling down on me
Oh, the nightfall
The night falling down on me
Oh, the nightfall
The night falling down on me
Yeah, the nightfall
It’s a mystery
With great history
And you’re telling me
Something I can’t see

Energy

I feel it, creeping in
The sunrise, the day begins
And it’s all, it’s easy for awhile
Blinded, by the light
And I lost you, at first sight
And it’s all, it’s easy for awhile
I feel your energy (feel your energy)
Like a pulse, that’s inside of me (pulse inside of me)
Yes I feel your energy (feel your energy)
Like the heart, racin’ through my veins (heart, through my veins)
And I feel your energy (feel your energy)
Like a pulse, that’s inside of me (pulse inside of me)
And I feel your energy (feel your energy)
Walk into, your company (to your company)
Blinded, by the light
And I lost you, at first sight
And it’s all, it’s easy for awhile
Broken, every nerve
And I’m runnin’, out of words
So I say,
Take it away!
I feel your energy (feel your energy)
Like a pulse, that’s inside of me (pulse inside of me)
Yes I feel your energy (feel your energy)
Like the heart, racin’ through my veins (heart, through my veins)
And I feel your energy (feel your energy)
Like a pulse, that’s inside of me (pulse inside of me)
And I feel your energy (feel your energy)
Walk into, your company (to your company)
And I feel your energy
Like a pulse, that’s inside of me
Yes, I feel your energy
Walk into, your company
And I feel your energy (feel your energy)
Like the pulse, that’s inside of me
Yes, I feel your energy (feel your energy)
Like the heart, racin’ through my veins
I feel your energy (feel your energy)
Like a pulse, that’s inside of me (pulse inside of me)
And I feel your energy (feel your energy)
Walk into, your company (to your company)
And I feel your energy (feel your energy)
Like a pulse, that’s inside of me (pulse inside of me)
Yes I feel your energy (feel your energy)
Like a pulse inside of me, oh! (pulse inside of me)
(feel your energy)

It's times like these, when I'm up too late
You'll find a way, but it’s too much to say
No you don't, have to try
You'll find a way, one of these days
When they're all gone away
and I'm left here to say
that you’ve got me
Yeah you do
You’ve got me
Yeah you do,
You got me
I wonder where ya are right now
but I’ll keep ya here and in my heart
When they're all gone away
and now I'm left here to say
that you’ve got me
Yeah you do
Oh you got me
Yeah you do,
Oh, you got me
Woah oh oh
Oh you do
I swear it’s true

Take a look into the mirror
The image is clear
Of how yourself
And others see you
But don’t forget beauty
It’s only skin deep
And what’s inside your heart
That’s where you gotta start
Oh, through and through
Thick and thin
Always how it’s always been
Let’s take the time and begin
Yeah
Aging away
With every day
But what’s gonna stay
Is what is inside
No matter whatcha do
It can’t hide
Oh, through and through
Thick and thin
Always how it’s always been
Let’s take the time and begin
Oh!
Through and through
Thick and thin
Always how it’s always been
Let’s take the time (and begin)
Through and through
Thick and thin
Always how it’s always been
Let’s take the time and begin
Yeah

Red with anger bursting inside
Red, the strong will, the need to survive
You fight again, you fight again
You fight again, you fight again
Sometimes
You fight again, you fight again
But sometimes, you lose
The fire bursts inside
You looking for a place to hide
No, you start again, you start again
With the heart again, the heart again
Sing! You fight again, you fight again
Yeah, you fight again, you fight again
But sometimes
You fight again, you fight again
And sometimes you lose
Yeah

You’ve got a hold on me

That you’ve got a hold on me
You fight again, you fight again

Fight again, you fight again

Life’s too short to be living, it upset
So turn your frown upside down, and don’t fret
I’m singing, amen! You’re my friend

Just singing, amen! You’re my friend
Singing, amen, you’re my friend
And put a smile back on your face

Amen, oh, you’re my friend

Every page
That’s in my book
Well maybe you
Should take a look
Oh, at how I feel
With what is real
Oh, and how you feel
With what ain’t real
Yeah
Everyday
Is a brand new day
And every way
That you shape your day
Based on how you feel
With what is real
Oh and how you feel
With what ain’t real
Oh yeah
And some days you wake up
And someday you won’t
But until that day,
You’ll wake up again

Thief in the night,
Thief in the night

Now you strike a fire,
High into the night
Cuz you’re runnin’ on empty
There’s nowhere left to hide
Yeah! You’re runnin’ on empty
There’s nowhere left to hide
Cuz we’ll be silent,
Under the moon
Let’s light up the sky,
We’ll light up this sky
Like the fourth of July,
Oh yeah
It’s dark outside,
Its dark outside
As when you close,
Your eyes
You’re runnin’ on empty
There’s nowhere left to hide
Yeah! You’re runnin’ on empty
There’s nowhere left to hide
Cuz we’ll be silent,
Under the moon
You’re runnin’ on empty
There’s nowhere left to hide
Yeah! You’re runnin’ on empty
There’s nowhere left to hide
Cuz we’ll be silent,
Under the moon
Cuz we’ll be silent,
We’ll be silent,
