[JULIE MEYERS]:
Where can I go, and feel warm and safe?
Where on earth is there such a place.
There is so much I desire
When I see my past on fire.
New place, new troubles
I send my past away
New faces, new tumbles
Why cant the demons pass on with the day?
Why am I feeling alone?
How much darkness can be shown?
Where on earth will I be free
Together, you and me.
[CHAD HASSLER]:
You know I’ll be here
When together, there’s nothing to fear
Forever I’ll be in your mind
Forever I’ll be at your side
Nothing can change us
Nothing can move us dear
I will always cherish our moment,
Not to fret, not to fear.
[BOTH]:
New places, new troubles
We send our love through the sky
New faces, new tumbles
[JULIA MEYERS]:
Our memories will never die
[CHAD HASSLER]:
Everything happens for a reason, don’t question why.
[BOTH]:
New places, new troubles. Death is knocking on,,,my…door.
A picture in a broken frame,
Surrounded by unwanted fame,
Looking through this mirror in disgrace,
The glass shatters and scars your face,
Tremors split the earth beneath us all,
Cracks through which many will fall,
Who will be the ones to fight back?
Who will be the ones to stand tall?
Stuck in a quiet disarray,
I will not make it through the day,
As all this pressure is placed on me,
The water is getting to deep to breath,
Tremors split the earth beneath us all,
Cracks through which many will fall,
Who will be the ones to fight back?
Who will be the ones to stand tall?
Awaken to a new day,
Put the shy and shame away,
Take the time to look around,
Take a step above the ground,
But do not look too deep into the sky,
For the glare of the sun may leave you blind.
