Like a bird

Everytime I close my eyes
I set myself free
Leaving behind
All that surrounds me

Secrets to explore
Deep in my mind
There is another world
I need to find

I can feel the beauty
Shining everywhere
As I open my eyes
I'm floating on air

Like a bird in the sky
Looking down
Watching all the people
Move around

Go an get it

You know your life is for living
So go and live it to the limit
If you don't buy a ticket
You are never gonna win it

No good beating around the bush
Instead of pulling go and take a push
Don't lie down like a welcome mat
Footprints are going to leave you flat

If you want something bad
You know you've got to go and get it
Dont wait for tomorrow
You will only forget it

If you never ask
How are you going to get it
So go and take a chance
Or end up living to regret it

There will never be peace

As long as
someone can pull out a gun
to shoot someone dead
as long as
someone can dropp a bomb
on some strangers head

there will never be peace
no there will never be peace
in this world

as long as
someone can start a war
based on a pack of lies
as long as
someone ignores the truth
when they look deep in your eyes

there will never be peace
no there will never be peace

Drain on my brain

You always tell me what to do
forcing me to act out whats best for you
don't ever worry what goes on in my mind
cause you're too dumb to notice, or just too blind

for far too long you've held me in your reins
switched me on and off like I'm plugged to your mains
just for once I'm going to go my own way
this time I won't listen to a word you say

you put a drain on my brain
gonna flush you out
cause I never want to be the same again

you put a drain on my brain
gonna push you out
cause I never want to see your face again

you do your best to hide under my skin
I try to talk, but nothing goes in
