I hung my head low, couldn’t break a smile

I knew I’d get through it somehow

All the agony and suffering I felt

But I’m feeling much better now

No kind words ever said to me

Depend on myself all alone

Ask myself in a desperate tone

Can I be strong, can I be strong, can I be stronger

Can I be strong, can I be strong, can I be stronger

Can I be strong, can I be strong, can I be stronger

Stronger than you

I was teased, I was blamed, I was the fall guy

Never mind that I know the truth

One day they pummeled me, left me in a heap

The scars from a troublesome youth

Picked myself up, the look in my eye

Wouldn’t it have been easier if I would just leave

Right now I can use a reprieve

Can I be strong, can I be strong, can I be stronger

Can I be strong, can I be strong, can I be stronger

Can I be strong, can I be strong, can I be stronger

Stronger than you

Now I’m better than ever before

Told myself to move along

I ask myself: can I be strong

Can I be strong, can I be strong, can I be stronger

Can I be strong, can I be strong, can I be stronger

Can I be strong, can I be strong, can I be stronger

Stronger than you

Lead Me Away

I looked for you but you disappeared

Far away now all that I feared

Where did you go why did you leave

I want the answers ‘cause I feel deceived

I walk down the streets and I want to cry

Unfulfilled love and I’ve been denied

I wonder aloud what have I done

I curse the grinning sun

Every clue and every lead

I want to find you wherever you flee

Feelings untold and rumours unfound

I wish I was wrong while you stay around

I’ve never felt feelings like I do for you

I saw in your eyes that you felt them too

You left too quick and with sudden haste

Fears we’d never faced

So lead me away, lead me away

To follow wherever you go

So lead me away, lead me away

Tell me what I want to know

So lead me away

I follow the clues that you’ve left for me

I see your face in so many dreams

I’ll keep on searching as you wanted me to

I’d go anywhere with you

So lead me away, lead me away

To follow wherever you go

So lead me away, lead me away

Tell me what I want to know

So lead me away

Resurgence

Down in the depths of confusion, I’m late to rise

Nothing to look forward to, starting my demise

It all comes crashing down, and I’m out of time

Pull me in all directions, not a piece of me that’s mine

And now I know, what’s been holding me back

And now I see, I’m finally getting back on track

In my resurgence

It was only a matter of inspiration

Forgotten dreams need a breath of provocation

All my mistakes, my head clouded in dust

I need to find that mindset that I trust

And now I know, what’s been holding me back

And now I see, I’m finally getting back on track

In my resurgence

I know the sun is looking down on me

I know that sometimes I have to follow my own light

And now I know, what’s been holding me back

And now I see, I’m finally getting back on track

In my resurgence

Light of Day

I’m fighting through this winter bite

With the darkness up above

I work then party every single night

And asleep before the sun comes up

And it’s been so long, been so long

Since I’ve seen the light of day

Yeah it’s been so long, been so long

Since I’ve seen the light of day

I drink too much and I sleep too late

As time passes by

I don’t see a reason to duplicate

Life under blue skies

And it’s been so long, been so long

Since I’ve seen the light of day

Yeah it’s been so long, been so long

Since I’ve seen the light of day

With Each Passing Moment

You seem so different one day to the next

I never know what to expect

As time passes, changes occur

You’ve never been more direct

Everyday something new happens

You’re not the same person I knew

I remember when you took the fall

I remember what you used to do

Once and again, I’ll always defend

Every time I look in your eyes

When summer falls to September skies

I know we’re gonna change

With each passing moment

There’s much more that we take for granted

We’ve known this from the start

We get along I’ll have you believe

I’m locked in the depths of your heart

I was there in hysteria

It’s only ancient lore

As real as it was for me

History for the poor

Once and again, I’ll always defend

Every time I look in your eyes

When summer falls to September skies

I know we’re gonna change

With each passing moment
