Paper Tiger
He flexes his wallet, sweet talks to a crowd
A self-made man, unwaveringly proud
His promises are given in earnest,
They’re as good as a candle thrown into a furnace
He’s bright on the outside, but hollow on the inside
What looks like strength is quickly undone
But nothing like a pat on the back to stroke his ego
Watch out for this Tiger
Who’s only made of Paper
Promising love, but in the fine print: pain
Of course you’re never to blame
Don’t need your money, don’t need your shame
All she ever wanted
Was for you to stay honest
To keep your own promise
Instead you played your game
Flattery is given freely like the air
To get you to like him is this man’s affair
But when it’s not returned where he feels it’s due
The Big Friendly Giant turns into a monster
Comes home at 3AM from a “long night’s work”
Yes, partying every night can be really rough
A pity that you tore your hundred-dollar sweatshirt
You’ve proved your a Tiger
Who’s only made of Paper
Promising love, but in the fine print: pain
Of course you’re never to blame
Don’t need your money, don’t need your shame
All she ever wanted
Was for you to stay honest
To keep your own promise
Instead you played your game

Be Alive
Will this land of milk and honey ever run dry?
Is it true what they say, it’s greener on the other side.
I’ve been a dreamer, since I was 15 minutes old
By design I was supposed to chase all that is golden.
I listen to the city of bright lights; Soliloquies, in melodies
All of them are crying, to Find the light, to Find themselves. Oh..
Hush little girl, no need to pretend.
You're beautiful inside
Hush little boy, let go of the fight
It's simple...
I just want to feel alive, I just want to be alive.
Tripping on my steps I couldn’t keep my pace.
Beautiful voices roaring and the earth started to shake
Falling on the ground I trembled, no longer fine, but with an open mind
Broken chains, finally I am free. Oh…
Ooh my dear, no need to pretend.
You're beautiful inside
Ooh my friend, it's upwards from here
It's simple…
I just want to feel alive, I just want to be alive
I just want to be alive, be alive, be alive

The creation in your heart,
Does it seem to be true to you?
The questions of our lives, our search
Is it true to you?
And your kindness,
Your kindness,
It satisfies my curiosity.
And your kindness,
Your kindness
Satisfies my curiosity

Still Thinking of You
Countless hours I've tried to create a meaningful life
I've met the Crystal Merchant, but started to go for my Personal Legend
Through travels far and wide, meeting people of all kinds
I never thought that I would feed my curiosity
Till I met you
For every person I search for what makes them alive.
Going on new adventures I try to find some inspiration
Collecting life lessons, can’t grasp until you bend
I never thought I would feed my creativity
Till I met you
When I'm high in the mountains I am thinking of you
When I'm 14,000 feet above the sea
I'm surrounded by thousands of people
But the only one I think of is you
You…. You…

Till She Found Her Way
03:36

Underneath a bus
Lay a broken child
How she stayed alive
No one really knows
In full body cast
Doctor said she's a cripple
People shook their heads
As she put her feet on the ground
Too much life to live
Too much pain to share
Both feet on the ground
Till she found a way
Till she found a way,
Step by step she took
Till she found her way
Through her tricks and trades
She could make a way through
Her imagination
Full fledged womanhood
Still misunderstood
Painted from her mind
Stood by Rivera
Burned by his affairs
Painted from her heart
Feet still on the ground
Till she found her way
Till she found her way,
Only one chance to fight for her life
So she found a way
Through her tricks and trades
She could make a way through
Her imagination
Although her bones may be fragile but
Her soul has power
Her presence speaks so much louder than
Tales of a thousand lives
But when she's faced with her shadow
She begins to dance with the devil
She's got so many dragons to slay
But hope has set her free

Rising Sun
This day, what will it bring,
What will it give?
This day how will it be,
How will I live?
This time what will it take
to finally awaken my soul?
So sweet the melody
Finally awakens my soul
So now I step outside
I cannot hide anymore
My spirit longs to be free
Come back like the rising sun
