As It Should Be
Home
It's getting late on the interstate and I'm racing the setting sun
Another long day and I can hardly wait for the race to finally be done
The road is long that I travel on
Home feels so far away - I'd go but I know I can't stay
It's too far to drive tonight, too late to fly, so I pray
I pray for a strong steady hand and a soft place to land
A purple sky tries to lullaby eyes so tired, so heavy, so worn
On the right side a steady white line on a road so dark and cold
I'm holding on for the morning dawn
Home feels so far away - I'd go but I know I can't stay
It's too far to drive tonight, too late to fly, so I pray
I pray for a strong steady hand - and a soft place to land
Fire with Fire
You make the rules up as we play
Twist the system to make sure you always get your way
I'm sitting back seat, curious, how'd we get to this place?
All I know for sure, things have got to change
This time, this time
Strike the match and light the flame, Turn and walk away
I don't wanna play no more - I'm tired - So I'll fight fire with fire
Narrow the gate and wide is the path
You wanna get somewhere, you find a compass, grab a map
I let you look at mine, I even held your hand
But you better get to walking cause, I'm not turning back
This time, This time
Strike the match and light the flame, you turn and walk away
I don't wanna play no more - I'm tired
BRIDGE
Roll over, play dead - Roll over, play dead
You're in over your head - They said
Roll over, play dead - I will have no regrets
Roll over, play dead - I'll play with the fire instead
This Time, This Time
Strike the match and light the flame, And I'll turn and walk away
I don't wanna play no more - I'm tired
So I'll fight fire with fire, Fire with Fire
I Could Get Used to This
If I had a penny for every kiss
Every time you made me feel like this
No need to save them all away, I'm not expecting rain
Every day would be a sunny day, I could get used to this
Get used to the way you smile,
Spin me hold me closer while
We're dancing on the rooftop in the mist
I could get used to this
You know the ins and outs of me
The ups and downs and in-betweens
I don't need cars or fancy things
As long as you're with me
I got everything I could ever need, I could get used to this
CHORUS
Get used to the way, you always say
You love me more with every passing day
Get used to your laugh, you're my better half
Get used to, Get used to, Get used to you
CHORUS
You Deserve Better
It's time to speak the honest truth
The man you got ain't lovin' you
The way he could, the way he should
You deserve better
How many tears will fall tonight
How many words might make it right
He'll try them all, make you feel small
But you deserve better
CHORUS
You have the strength you need, and faith & hope to believe
Raise your head, raise what you expect cause I will not sit silent anymore
You deserve better
BRIDGE
Took some time, to finally find, what she's worth, what she's worth
Left a message, on the mirror, just three words - I deserve better
I found her smiling at my door
Made up her mind she needed more
Than he was givin' from where she's sitting
Life looks better
Love Abounds
Twirling, Swirling, Laughing and joking around
Faster, faster, my head is up in the clouds
I'm loosing my balance, I'm loosing sleep
I didn't know falling could be so free
Let the rain come down, let the world spin around
When the sun goes out, I'm safe and sound
Here where love abounds
I'll wear a white dress, something new, something blue
Smiling we'll promise all of our days until they're through
The leaves change color, I'll change my name
we'll weather forever whatever the stakes
Let the rain come down, let the world spin around
When the sun goes out, I'm safe and sound
Here where love abounds
try cause you may, try cause you must
one of these days you'll be able to trust
and Let the rain come down, let the world spin around
When the sun goes out, I'm safe and sound
Here where love abounds
As It Should Be
Seek not, approval
Seek not, applause
Care not, for competition
Need not, the measure of man
Dust will fall, settle on the ground
Fill the places that were keeping you down
And finally you can believe that something bigger
Longs to put us back together, as it should be
Care not, the color of skin
Care for, what lies within
Seek not, the money or fortune or fame
You leave with only what you came
Dust will fall, settle on the ground
Fill the places that were keeping you down
And finally you can believe that something bigger
Longs to put us back together, as it should be
