Breakdown

Real Love

Do you Remember

You and your heart

Sitting, Waiting, Whising

It seems to me that maybe,

It pretty much always means

no So don't tell me you might

just let it go

And often times we're lazy

It seems to stand in my way

Cause no one no not no one

Likes to be let down

(Flake)

I can change the world

With my own two hands

Make it a better place

With my own two hands

Make it a kinder place

With my own two hands

(With my own two

hands)

Love is the answer at least for most of the questions in my heart"Why are we here?" and, "Where do we go?"And, "How come we're so hard?"It's not always easy and sometimes life can be deceivingI'll tell you one thing it's always better when we're together (Better Together)

Who's to say what's impossible?Well they forgot this world keeps spinningAnd with each new dayI can feel a change in everything(Upside Down)
