Stained Glass Masquerade--Casting Crowns


Is there anyone that fails is there anyone that falls
Am I the only one in church today feelin’ so small

Cause when I take a look around, everybody seems so strong
I know they’ll soon discover that I don’t belong

So I tuck it all away, like everything’s okay
If I make them all believe it, maybe I’ll believe it too
So with a painted grin, I play the part again
So everyone will see me the way that I see them

Are we happy plastic people under shiny plastic steeples
With walls around our weakness and smiles to hide our pain
But if the invitation’s open to every heart that has been broken
Maybe then we close the curtain on our stained glass masquerade

Is there anyone who’s been there are there any hands to raise
Am I the only one who’s traded in the altar for a stage

The performance is convincing and we know every line by heart
Only when no one is watching can we really fall apart

But would it set me free if I dared to let you see
The truth behind the person that you imagine me to be

Would your arms be open or would you walk away
Would the love of Jesus be enough to make you stay

Are we happy plastic people under shiny plastic steeples
With walls around our weakness and smiles to hide our pain
But if the invitation’s open to every heart that has been broken
Maybe then we close the curtain on our stained glass masquerade

Is there anyone that fails is there anyone that falls
Am I the only one in church today feelin’ so small

Problem girl--Rob Thomas

Don't let 'em get where they're going to
You know they're only what they think of you
You heard of this emotional trickery
And you felt like you were learning the ropes
But where you're going now you don't know

And when the kids on the street say
What's your problem girl
And the weight of their smile's just
Too much for you to bear
When they all make you feel
Like you're a problem girl
Remember
You're no problem at all
You're no problem at all

Pride like promises can let you down
You thought that you'd be feeling
Better by now
You worry all the things they could do to you
You worry about the things they could say
Maybe you're seeing things the wrong way

Try
If you stand or you fall
You're no problem at all

I got you--Leona Lewis



This is what love is all about... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GaSRLZqSsTs

A place to crash, I got you, no need to ask, I got you
Just get on the phone, I got you, come and pick you up if I have to
What's weird about it is we're right at the end, I'm mad about it, just figured it out in my head
I'm proud to say I got you...
Go ahead and say goodbye, I'll be alright
Go ahead and make me cry, I'll be alright
And when you need a place to run to, for better, for worse I got you, I got you
Ain't falling apart or bitter, let's be bigger than that and remember
The cooling outdoor when you're all alone
Won't survive it, no drama, no need for a show
Just wanna say I got you...
Go ahead and say goodbye, I'll be alright
Go ahead and make me cry, I'll be alright
And when you need a place to run to, for better, for worse I got you
'Cause this is love and life, and nothing we can both control
And if it don't feel right, you're not losing me by letting me know
Go ahead and say goodbye, I'll be alright
Go ahead and make me cry, I'll be alright
And when you need a place to run to, for better, for worse I got you

Something to believe in--Parachute

You wake up every morning looking for your answer,
You're waiting for your sign
While Jeremiah's on his way to tell the people

But you watch him pass you by
You walk the streets at night still looking for your reason


But you don't wanna try
You swear the world has got you backed into a corner,
But no one holds your hand to walk into a fight

You swear the light is gonna find you,

But it can't find you when you're waiting all the time

Chorus:
You say, "keep my head from going down just for a little, just for a little"
Watch my feet float off the ground just for a little, just for a little
Love, if you can hear this sound oh,
Just give me something, something to believe in

You spend your days alone still hopin' for the truth, oh
But all you hear are lies
But no on else is gonna tell you what to do now
No one else is gonna help you hold the line
Sometimes it's hard to keep on living
But you're the one who's got to know just when it's right

You say, "keep my head from going down just for a little, just for a little
Watch my feet float off the ground just for a little, just for a little
Love, if you can hear this sound oh,
Just give me something, something to believe in


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What are you waiting for? Are you waiting for someone to pick you up? Are you waiting for someone to take your hand and lead you along? Are you waiting for someone to do it for you? Stop waiting! Start living. Summon the inner strength you never knew you had and stand up again. Find your way. Make it happen. Complacency leads to failure... how much of human life is lost in waiting? Be the change you wish to see in the world. That's how change happens... one gesture, one person, one moment at a time.

Fix You--Coldplay



When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse

And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream down on your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down on your face
And I...

Tears stream down on your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down on your face
And I...

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Perfect--Pink



Always rememember... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4Rax2PXiWA

Made a wrong turn, once or twice
Dug my way out, blood and fire
Bad decisions, that's alright
Welcome to my silly life
Mistreated, misplaced, misunderstood
Miss 'no way it's all good', it didn't slow me down
Mistaken, always second guessing, underestimated
Look, I'm still around

Pretty pretty please, don't you ever ever feel
Like you're less than, less then perfect
Pretty pretty please, if you ever ever feel like you're nothing
You're perfect to me!

You're so mean, when you talk about yourself, you were wrong
Change the voices in your head, make them like you instead
So complicated, look how big you'll make it!
Filled with so much hatred, such a tired game
It's enough! I've done all I can think of
Chased down all my demons, I've seen you do the same

Oh, pretty pretty please, don't you ever ever feel
Like you're less than, less then perfect
Pretty pretty please, if you ever ever feel like you're nothing
You're perfect to me

The whole world's scared so I swallow the fear
The only thing I should be drinking is an ice cold beer
So cool in line, and we try try try, but we try too hard and it's a waste of my time
Done looking for the critics, cause they're everywhere
They don't like my jeans, they don't get my hair
Exchange ourselves, and we do it all the time
Why do we do that? Why do I do that?
Why do I do that?

Yeah, oh, oh baby, pretty please!
Pretty pretty please, don't you ever ever feel
Like you're less than, less then perfect
Pretty pretty please, if you ever ever feel
Like you're nothing, you're perfect to me
You're perfect, you're perfect!
Pretty pretty please, if you ever ever feel like you're nothing
You're perfect to me.
