The Race of Your Life

Give it your all and do your best.
Always tell your self you can out run the rest.
Your heart is racing, your palms all sweaty,
you're ready to drive.
Round and round you go.
Lap after lap,
 Like it's the race of your life.
Mash the gas, and make a pass,
Faster and faster you go.
5 laps left to go,
 It's the race of your life.
You have to keep pushing.
3 laps, 2 laps,
Turn after turn, you're getting closer.
Almost to the finish line.
I see the checkered flag shine,
I take the win.
That was the race of my life.

No One Is There

I'm crying out for someone,
But no one is there.
I'm crying out to anyone,
But still no one is there.
I cry out louder and louder each time,
But still no one is there.
I cry harder and harder,
Still no one is there!

All I See Is Pain

All I see is pain.
All around they cry,
Everyone's asking why?
   All I see is pain.
This is driving me insane!
Has this bad dream come true?
did we really lose you?
  All I see is pain.
All around they cry,
Everyone's asking why?

Unwind

Traveling along an old dusty back road,
Listening to some good ole Rock & Roll.
Clearing my mind and trying to unwind.
Thinking back on the good old days we had.
The more I think about you, the more I get sad.
So I keep traveling along this dusty old back road , hoping to clear my mind.
Still listening to that good ole Rock & Roll,
    Still trying to unwind.

Why

Why did you say you loved me?
Why did you say you cared?;
Why did you tear my heart into?
With just one little stare.

Why did I have to love you?
Why did I have to care?;
When all you did was took my heart,
And threw it everywhere.

You said you really loved me,
That you'd always be there;
Yet where you once had sat,
Is only an empty chair.

Why did you say you loved me?
Why did you say you cared?;
Why did I have to love you?
Why did I have to care?;
Now all I'm left with is this,
Old empty chair.

Take My Hand

Take my hand and lead me through the promise land.
Of hopes and dreams, and wonderful things.
Take my hand and let's go to another land.
Of people, and places, and wonderful faces.
    Take my hand.

I Believe

I am standing by your side.
I'm not gonna run and hide.
You made your mistakes,
And you paid you price.
Now it's time to straighten up your life.
Stay with me, you'll never go wrong.
Our relationship is meant to be strong.
You are the one I truly love.
I believe we were meant to be.
And I hope that you will,
Stay with me, because I believe.

Reach the Top

I've got that fire,
I've got that drive.
 Sit back and watch me come alive.
I've got that heart,
I've got that passion,
 Sit back and I'll teach you a lesson.

come with me, we will reach the top.

We've got that fire,
We've got that drive,
Sit back as we thrive.
We've got that heart,
We've got that passion,
 Sit back while we bring that cash in.

come with us we will reach the top.
