Songs From “Hidden Power”

Lyrics

You took your clothes and all our cash
And ran away with your little tramp
And you cheated In my face
I’m tellin’ you buddy,that’s a big mistake
What do I do?
I think I’ll do fine without you

I’m gonna share my blues with a friend or two
We’ll buy Master Card dresses and Visa shoes
And we’ll wine and dine til there’s nothing left
Of your Discover Card and your American Express
That’s what I’ll do
I think I’ll do fine without you
Without you

Well it’s plain I’m not bitter but revenge is sweet
You better watch out the next time we meet
You’ll be lookin’ me over and looking to say
I’m sorry, Baby, as I’m walking away
That’s what I’ll do
Without you

I’ve got a place for my new things
I’ve got a brand new Harley that gave me wings
Now I can fly, now I can breathe
I’m so happy you decided to leave
Yes, it’s true

IM DOIN’ FINE WITHOUT YOU
I’M DOIN’ FINE WITHOUT YOU
I’M DOIN’ FINE WITHOUT YOU YEAH!

Lyrics

Hiding in shadows for so long
This fortress I’ve built is pretty damn strong
I see you, I hear you and I know what’s going on
Nothing can touch me and nothing goes wrong

But sometimes I dream that I am free
I’m not bound by beliefs or memories
We are one with nothing between
Just you and me

AND THESE WALLS ARE TUMBLING DOWN
PIECE BY PIECE THEY’RE HITTING THE GROUND
AND THESE WALLS ARE TUMBLING DOWN
THEY’RE FALLING

My pain and insecurities shelter me
I’m sick of being scared and tired of being lonely
I was busy being strong I didn’t see
How life without love makes you so weak

But fate found a way through the smallest cracks
Love kept chipping away hard and fast
Shattering stone around me at last
No turning back

AND THESE WALLS ARE TUMLBING DOWN
PIECE BY PIECE THEY’RE HITTING THE GROUND
AND THESE WALLS ARE TUMBLING DOWN
THEY’RE FALLING
FALLING

Lyrics

I know some things are better left unsaid
That’s not the case this time
Sometimes lovers should just be friends

I WISH YOU COULD READ MY MIND

I come so close to say so much
I just don’t have the heart

I WISH YOU COULD READ MY MIND
CAUSE I DON’T WANT TO SAY THE WORDS TO HURT YOU
I WISH YOU COULD READ MY MIND
CAUSE MY LIPS DON’T WANT TO BREAK YOUR HEART

I feel like a liar when I look at you
Said goodbye a thousand times
But you taste so sweet and feel so good
I could never speak the truth, though I tried and tried

I come so close to say so much
I just don’t have the heart

I WISH YOU COULD READ MY MIND
CAUSE I DON’T WANT TO SAY THE WORDS TO HURT YOU
I WISH YOU COULD READ MY MIND
CAUSE MY LIPS DON’T WANT TO BREAK YOUR HEART

There’s things inside I used to feel before
I search in vain; I can’t find ’em anymore
Ignore my body when it lies
Look deep into my eyes
Can’t you see the words
Can’t you hear them say it’s over

I WISH YOU COULD READ MY MIND
CAUSE I DON’T WANT TO SAY THE WORDS TO HURT YOU
I WISH YOU COULD READ MY MIND
CAUSE MY LIPS DON’T WANT TO BREAK YOUR HEART

Lyrics

Don’t tell me one more lie
Cause I don’t want to know the reasons why
I’m hurt and I’m betrayed
I can barely breathe through all the pain
With your knife in my ribs
Those words on your lips
You reach out to me and I wanna scream

DON’T TOUCH ME WITH YOUR GUILTY HANDS
DON’T, DON’T SAY ONE MORE WORD
CAUSE I, I DON’T NEED TO UNDERSTAND
DON’T SAY YOU KNOW HOW I FEEL
CAUSE YOU DON’T
DON’T BEG ME TO STAY
CAUSE I WON’T
JUST DON’T

I don’t care if it was only once
Cause to me that’s more than enough
Just pack your bags and go
Don’t blame me, the choice was your own
Don’t ask for one more chance
I gave everything I had
You reach out to me and I wanna scream

DON’T TOUCH ME WITH YOUR GUILTY HANDS
DON’T, DON’T SAY ONE MORE WORD
CAUSE I, I DON’T NEED TO UNDERSTAND
DON’T SAY YOU KNOW HOW I FEEL
CAUSE YOU DON’T
DON’T BEG ME TO STAY
CAUSE I WON’T
JUST LEAVE ME ALONE WITH MY BROKEN HEART
JUST DON’T

You promised me I’d always be the only one

Lyrics

He was always such a nice guy
Till he got caught in the crowd
He never used to steal or lie
Till the ice men came around The deal was too sweet to refuse
He’d have everything he dreamed
He’d take control,he’d make his own rules
Till they took his soul away

THAT’S THE GAME
THAT’S HOW THE GAME IS PLAYED
THE DEAL IS MADE AND YOU TRADE YOUR LIFE FOR A PRICE
YEAH, THAT’S THE GAME
NO FACES, NO NAMES, NO ONE’S HUMAN
YOU GO DOWN IF THE RULES AREN’T PLAYED RIGHT
JUST ANOTHER CASUALTY OF THE NIGHT

She was always such a good girl
Then she ran from home that night
The ice men promised her jewels and furs
Now she sells her goods for a price
The deal was too sweet to refuse
She’d be cared for, loved, and adored
But after a while she just felt used
They’d taken her soul away

THAT’S THE GAME
THAT’S HOW THE GAME IS PLAYED
THE DEAL IS MADE AND YOU TRADE YOUR LIFE FOR A PRICE
YEAH, THAT’S THE GAME
NO FACES, NO NAMES, NO ONE’S HUMAN
YOU GO DOWN IF THE RULES AREN’T PLAYED RIGHT
JUST ANOTHER CASUALTY;

Its a long way from paradise
Here everyone’s fighting for their lives
It takes forever to pay off the debt
Last night the cops found another one dead
And the signs around them said…

Lyrics

When I try to be tough all the time
And I’m out of my mind when the words don’t rhyme
I’m wound up tight and ready to fly
When they all want a piece of me
I just wanna hide from everything
You give me room to breathe

YOU LET ME
YOU LET ME BE WHO I NEED TO BE
YOU LET GO WHEN I NEED TO BE FREE
YOU LET ME
YOU LET ME DO WHAT I NEED TO DO
YOU LET ME

When fear and doubt cloud my sight
I wanna give up this fight
I just want to turn out the light
When I push and push you stop me cold
I cross that line, you let me know
You still believe if I don’t

YOU LET ME
YOU LET ME BE WHO I NEED TO BE
YOU LET GO WHEN I NEED TO BE FREE
YOU LET ME
YOU LET ME DO WHAT I NEED TO DO
YOU LET ME

And in my darkest time of need
I find myself at my knees
I only want to ask you one thing
Where do you hide your wings?

But you trust me with your life
And I trust you with mine
When I can’t find words to tell you, you let me show you

Lyrics

I’m laying down my broken sword – I don’t wanna fight anymore
I’m battle weary, bruised and beaten
I’m tired to the bone
I’m taking off my armour and I’m handing it to you
With each delusion, each rejection, every weakness, every wound

I SURRENDER TO THE GODS OR ANGELS
WHOEVER’S RUNNING THE SHOW
I SURRENDER ALL MY HOPES AND DREAMS
I’M LETTING GO

I’m tearing down the walls that keep me from embracing the unknown
I’m dancing on the edge of sanity
I can’t carry on alone
I’m hanging by a tattered thread at the mercy of the wind
Won’t somebody rescue me cause I’m doing all I can

I SURRENDER TO THE GODS OR ANGELS
WHOEVER’S RUNNING THE SHOW
I SURRENDER ALL MY HOPES AND DREAMS
I’M LETTING GO
I’M LETTING GO

Lost and running in circles fighting the dragons
All by myself
Can’t wait forever, it’s now or never
Won’t somebody help?

I SURRENDER TO THE GODS OR ANGELS
WHOEVER’S RUNNING THE SHOW
I SURRENDER ALL MY HOPES AND DREAMS
IM LETTING GO
I’M LETTING GO

Lyrics

In this skin is a little girl tired of being judged by her size
By the shape of her butt, by the colour of her eyes
Talk to me and I’ll tell you anything you need to know
In this skin is a little girl who only wants you to hear her sing

IN THIS SKIN IS A LOVER, A SINGER, A MOTHER
FEELINGS SO DEEP THEY MAY NEVER SHOW
IN THIS SKIN IS A WRITER, A WOMAN, A FIGHTER
MORE THAN THE WORLD WILL EVER KNOW
IN THIS SKIN
IN THIS SKIN

In this skin is an ancient soul tired of listening to lies
A diamond in the rough, a shining star in disguise
Watch me, and I’ll show you, I can do most anything
In this skin is an ancient soul who only wants you to let her in

IN THIS SKIN IS A LOVER, A SINGER, A MOTHER
FEELINGS SO DEEP THEY MAY NEVER SHOW
IN THIS SKIN IS A WRITER, A WOMAN, A FIGHTER
MORE THAN THE WORLD WILL EVER KNOW
IN THIS SKIN
IN THIS SKIN

Look past the shell
There’s so much more to tell
In this skin is me

Talk to me and I’ll tell you anything you need to know
In this skin is a little girl, who only wants you to let her in

REPEAT CHORUS
IN THIS SKIN IS A DAUGHTER, A CHILD OF THE WATER
FEELINGS SO DEEP THEY MAY NEVER SHOW
IN THIS SKIN IS A WRITER, A LOVER, A FIGHTER
MORE THAN THE WORLD WILL EVER KNOW
IN THIS SKIN
IN THIS SKIN

Lyrics

Accusations hit me like sand in a desert storm
They sting my eyes and in my ears
Thunder begins to roar
Clouds come rolling in
Your voice a bitter wind

It feels like lightning striking my heart
But I don’t hide my head
Then the heavens open up and
All the things we said
Are washed away like rain
It cleanses all the pain

AFTER THE STORM
THE CLOUDS WILL DRIFT AWAY
IT’LL BE YOU AND I TOGETHER
JUST LIKE YESTERDAY
AFTER THE STORM
FOREVER SKIES OF BLUE
ALL THAT WILL BE LEFT BABY IS LOVE, AND ME AND YOU

I feel a gentle breeze as the clouds slowly fade away
Your love is like the sun as it warms and dries up all the rain
Your love can shelter me
Baby it’s all I need

AFTER THE STORM
THE CLOUDS WILL DRIFT AWAY
IT’LL BE YOU AND I TOGETHER
JUST LIKE YESTERDAY
AFTER THE STORM
FOREVER SKIES OF BLUE
ALL THAT WILL BE LEFT BABY IS LOVE, AND ME AND YOU

Lyrics

You might think you know me but you don’t
You might think I’ll cave, but I won’t
I like to keep it all locked up inside all the time
But that’s okay, cause it’s all mine

YOU’LL NEVER SEE ME NAKED
MY SOUL BARED FOR EVERYONE TO SEE
LAID OUT ON THIS TABLE
THAT AIN’T ME
I’LL DIE BEFORE I LET YOU SEE TEARS FROM THESE EYES
YOU’LL NEVER SEE ME NAKED

I’ll bite my lip until it bleeds
I’ll never give you satisfaction or opportunity
I like to keep it all locked up inside all the time
But that’s okay, cause it’s all mine

YOU’LL NEVER SEE ME NAKED
MY SOUL BARED FOR EVERYONE TO SEE
LAID OUT ON THIS TABLE
THAT AIN’T ME
I’LL DIE BEFORE I LET YOU SEE TEARS FROM THESE EYES
YOU’LL NEVER SEE ME NAKED

Why do you wanna know the secrets of my soul
Won’t be defenseless, unprotected, or exposed
In front of you
Unless I want to

YOU’LL NEVER SEE ME NAKED
MY SOUL BARED FOR EVERYONE TO SEE
LAID OUT ON THiS TABLE
THAT AIN’T ME
I’LL DIE BEFORE I LET YOU SEE TEARS FROM THESE EYES
YOU’LL NEVER SEE ME NAKED

Lyrics

All my life I’ve dreamed out loud
Walkin around with my head in the clouds
I found my home when I found the stage
Come follow me, and we can escape

CAUSE I’M THE GODDESS OF ROCK N’ ROLL
OPEN YOUR MIND AND I’LL GIVE YOU MY SOUL
GET LOST IN MY THUNDER, I’M TAKING CONTROL
CAUSE I’M THE GODDESS OF ROCK N’ ROLL
I’M THE GODDESS OF ROCK N’ ROLL

Domination of radio
Dressed in leather and velvet robes
Here I am living my dreams
Gold and platinum and limousines

CAUSE I’M THE GODDESS OF ROCK N’ ROLL
OPEN YOUR MIND AND I’LL GIVE YOU MY SOUL
GET LOST IN MY THUNDER, I’M TAKING CONTROL
CAUSE I’M THE GODDESS OF ROCK N’ ROLL
I’M THE GODDESS OF ROCK N’ ROLL

Sometimes at night when I fall asleep
I think of that little girl’s dreams
Just climb that mountain that reaches the sky
We can touch stars if we try Yeah we can touch stars if we try
Oh yeah, cause I’m the Goddess

CAUSE I’M THE GODDESS OF ROCK N’ ROLL
OPEN YOUR MIND AND I’LL GIVE YOU MY SOUL
GET LOST IN MY THUNDER, I’M TAKING CONTROL
CAUSE I’M THE GODDESS OF ROCK N’ ROLL
I’M THE GODDESS OF ROCK N’ ROLL
I’M THE GODDESS OF ROCK N’ ROLL
I’M THE GODDESS OF ROCK N’ ROLL
I’M THE GODDESS OF ROCK N’ ROLL

Lyrics

I wasn’t looking for love
I wasn’t looking for anyone
But something made me open my eyes
It was out of my hands and I realized
You’re my night in shining armour
You’re my missing link
You’re the answer to my questions
You’re my destiny

YEAH, AND THAT SCARES ME
YEAH, CAUSE I THOUGHT I WAS COMPLETE
YEAH, THAT SCARES ME
YEAH, CAUSE YOU’RE EVERYTHING I DREAMED
YEAH, AND THAT SCARES ME
THAT SCARES ME

I never believed in fate
If love never happened, that was okay
But I felt something in my heart
Your name was tattooed with cupid’s dart
Can’t remember life before you
Without you I’m alone
I don’t feel like I’m supposed to
All I know’s it feels like home

YEAH, AND THAT SCARES ME
YEAH, CAUSE I THOUGHT I WAS COMPLETE
YEAH, THAT SCARES ME
YEAH, CAUSE YOU’RE EVERYTHING I DREAMED
YEAH, AND THAT SCARES ME
THAT SCARES ME

Well I’m not frightened
Frightened of the dark
What scares me most is opening my heart
