FIRST TIME TODAY

Aaaay  Aaaaay
Ohhh   Ohhhhh

I said no more
I said goodbye
Spare me your heartache 
You can keep your lies 

I was on the fast train to nowhere 
With no end in sight
Now I see all the signs
It’s the end of the line
I’m steppin’ off this ride 

I  see it now in a brand new light
The world is bigger and it’s all alright 
Why it took me so long, I cannot say
But I took a deep breath for the first time today… 
The first time today… 

Aaaay  Aaaaay
Ohhh   Ohhhhh

So don’t bother  to come crawlin’ 
Telling me you’ve changed   
Making all your promises 
Cuz I’m done with all your games 
Now I see all the signs
It’s the end of the line
I’m steppin’ off this ride… 

I  see it now in a brand new light
The world is bigger and it’s all alright 
Why it took me so long, I cannot say
But I took a deep breath for the first time today
The first time today…

The sun is shining – I’m feelin’ fine
Today….
And I’m gonna be alright   

Cuz I  see it all in a brand new light
The world is bigger and I’m alright 
Why it took me so long, I cannot say
But I took a deep breath for the first time…

I see it now in a brand new light
The world is bigger and it’s all alright 
Why it took me so long
I cannot say
But I took a deep breath 
For the first time today
The first time today…

LIGHT IT UP

Caged in...  Nowhere to run to
So hard…  But baby I’m here for you
Caught up...  Broke down and wasted
Hang on…  Here’s what we’re gonna do 
Break free...  Get to the higher ground
So free...  
Don’t let ‘em break you down
Don’t let ‘em take you down

Here and now – let me turn you on
Show me what you want
Come on light it up
Give me more – make me feel alive
Let me take you higher
Come on burn it down
Burn it to the ground
Light it up!

Rise up...  It’s time to stand or fall
You’re lost...  Unless you give it all 
So close...  We’re gonna see it through
You’ve got...  Someone who believes in you
Break free...  Get to the higher ground
So free...
Don’t let ‘em break you down
Don’t let ‘em take you down

Here and now – let me turn you on
Show me what you want
Come on light it up
Give me more – make me feel alive
Let me take you higher
Come on burn it down
Burn it to the ground
Light it up!

Light it up… (Don’t let ‘em break you – Light it up)
When you’re near the end
Cause you’ve given all
And they’ve got you on the run
When your walls come down
Let the darkness fall 
I’ll be there to light you up

Here and now – let me turn you on
Show me what you want
Come on light it up
Give me more – make me feel alive
Let me take you higher
Come on burn it down
Burn it to the ground
Light it up!
