Trying, trying to stand up, you’re always failing, never succeeding in this thing we call life
Money, money always needing, you never stop your greed. You’re bleeding for those bills we call cash
Your car’s all you’ve got, your job’s all you want, you think you’ve got a lot
Maybe you should slow down, smell the flowers, then you might see all you’ve got
To let go, to forget
Your body’s so tired and your greed is so wired, you just keep wanting more and more
When will you stop, when will this habit of stuff stop, your life is filled with toys galore
To let go, to forget
Forget, to forget
To let go, to forget
To let go, to forget
To forget, to forget, to forget

Easy Way Out

As you look back on your past, the whole thing just seems so easy
Memories remind you of days, you wish you could take them back
You took the easy way out in everything, obviously not concentrating
But in time you’ll find you’re warning others not to find the easy way out
Yesterday you just found out what last week was all about, so you ran
You just got done having fun at your girlfriend’s house, now she’s pregnant so you run
You took the easy way out in everything, obviously not concentrating
But in time you’ll find you’re warning others not to find the easy way out
You took the easy way out in everything, obviously not concentrating
But in time you’ll find you’re warning others not to find the easy way out

Those Girls

Flying down to touch the ground, that’s what she always said to you
I don’t think that we have the time to go any further
And that’s the last you heard from her, as she left to go on the plane
I’m starting to wonder if you should even give her the time of day
Two broken hearts as one, but she don’t seem to see
But that’s your life story anyway
I know you’re hurt, I know you’re sad, and it is really too bad
That she had to walk out on you
It’s time to call it quits, and if you can you should move on
It’s time to get to all the things that you’ve been dreaming of
Two broken hearts as one, but she don’t seem to see
But that’s your life story anyway
Those girls. You just can’t trust them
Those girls. You just can’t trust them
Two broken hearts as one, but she don’t seem to see
But that’s your life story anyway

Dancing the night away, staying up all night
And sleeping through the day, sleeping through the day
You're starting to wonder now, what is this life for?
All you do is nothing. Nothing more and more…
Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing more and more
You’re wondering, wondering, what is your life for?
You’ve been searching, searching, but you haven’t found a door
You’re wondering, wondering, what is your life for?
You’ve been searching, searching, but you haven’t found a door
Are you tired of stress that these days require
A token for some rest and a payment for a smile
Yet you still have time to party day and night
So quit your whining, suck it up, this is a part of life
Nothing, nothing, nothing nothing more and more
You’re wondering, wondering, what is your life for?
You’ve been searching, searching, but you haven’t found a door
You’re wondering, wondering, what is your life for?
You’ve been searching, searching, but you haven’t found a door
Tired of all the stress, all the responsibilities
You're tired of all the stress, all the responsibilities
You’re wondering, wondering, what is your life for?
You’ve been searching, searching, but you haven’t found a door
You’re wondering, wondering, what is your life for?
You’ve been searching, searching, searching

Always Forever

What have you decided, through those thoughts and fears
Have they come to life throughout these long long years?
And if you knew what was good for you, you would pack your bags and leave
Get out of this town, far away from me
And we’d be good, finally we would be happy
We would live our lives with no more misery
And we’d be good, finally we would be happy
We would live our lives with no more misery
And what if all these things you thought finally came true to you
Would you count your blessings daily?
And when you find that perfect guy, don’t forget what you did to me
And you better pray that that perfect guy will never talk to me
And we’d be good, finally we would be happy
We would live our lives with no more misery
And we’d be good, finally we would be happy
We would live our lives with no more misery
No more you and me
No more misery, no more misery, no more you and me
And we’d be good, finally we would be happy
We would live our lives with no more misery
And we’d be good, finally we would be happy
We would live our lives with no more misery

Something More

I know there’s something more to life
Absolute wrongs and absolute rights
If you’re searching for a sign
You need to stop and draw a line
I know there’s something more to life
Absolute wrongs and absolute rights
If you’re searching for a sign
You need to stop and draw a line
Search your heart, all by yourself
Take that book up off the shelf
Turn those pages and look for Him
He’ll find you if you find Him
All you have are empty pockets
And only one picture in your locket
The world you knew went up in smoke
And now you’re thinking life’s a joke
All you have are empty pockets
And only one picture in your locket
The world you knew went up in smoke
And now you’re thinking life’s a joke
Search your heart, all by yourself
Take that book up off the shelf
Turn those pages and look for Him
He’ll find you if you find Him
Some people say it’s only right
Not knowing the right way to live your life
It's only right
Some people say it’s only right
Not knowing the right way to live your life
It's only right
Search your heart, all by yourself
Take that book up off the shelf
Turn those pages and look for Him
He’ll find you if you find Him
If you find Him
