Here I am, facedown The self-doubt starts to rise Like the burning sun when I open my eyes I'm in the eye of the storm (the storm), but I'll push forward Walking the hard mile wearing a smile Shackled no more by insecurities I broke out of the cell Unchained my mind and swallowed my doubt into the blackness of hell I've grown to love the pain I've grown to love the pain Calloused, cold, out of control Hardened by torment and trial, we break the mold Calloused and cold, not afraid to fail Life's not a bed of roses, it's a bed of nails (It's a bed of nails) Bed of nails I got air in my lungs and my heart is still beating Bed of nails I'm not afraid to fail Always wounded winded beaten and bruised (Beaten and bruised) Dazed and confused but I'm still standing This is my legacy and I refuse to be a product of fear Calloused, cold, out of control Calloused and cold, not afraid to fail Life's not a bed of roses, it's a bed of nails (It's a bed of nails) Bed of nails I got air in my lungs and my heart is still beating Bed of nails I'm not afraid to fail Calloused, cold, out of control These are the times that try at a lesser man's soul Calloused, cold, out of control Hardened by torment and trial, we break the mold Calloused, cold, out of control Calloused, cold, out of control We break the mold

Face to face with my demons again A constant struggle a never-ending war from within So bring it on! Let the battle begin! You keep trying my patience it’s wearing thin Let's skip the basics I don't care how you've been Get out of my head out of my skin With one final blow one last swing K.O I'll be the last man standing Paralyze resistance with persistence K.O I'll be the last man standing Blood. Sweat. Drive Do you have what it takes to survive? (come on!) Never cave, never fold Never the easy road for the brave and the bold (I said) Never cave Never fold I'll be the last man standing (the last man standing) About-face from my demons at last Eyes set on the prize and I'm not looking back Walking through shards of glass from shattered fears of my past I'll stop at nothing ready for attack A savage wolf at the door I'm always hungry for more Don't try to stop me cause I- I ain't got nothin' to lose Never cave, never fold Never the easy road for the brave and the bold (I said) Never cave, never fold I'll be the last man standing (the last man standing) Blood. Sweat. Drive Do you have what it takes to survive?

Be the victim Or claim the victory Move past your fears so you can finally be free Push through the pain (pain!) You can’t be afraid You won’t see the sun until you walk through the rain Fall, get up, repeat Welcome the hard times Rise in defeat Fall! Get up! Repeat! Fall, get up, repeat! Keep moving, don't stop for anything! Inhale the struggle Exhale the trouble Bear your cross with honor even when your knees buckle (knees buckle) And don't forget where you came from Your determination will determine the man you become Breathe life, breathe life Survive Are you afraid to die? Afraid to be alive? This time I've made up my mind and I'm not wasting time Survival of the fittest Survive! Survive! This is your life (hey!) so come out swinging Stop sitting in silence start kicking and screaming Push through the hate (hey!) Don't give them reasons to say They were right you were wrong you couldn't go all the way Fall! Get up! Repeat! Fall, get up, repeat! Keep moving Don't stop for anything Breathe life, breathe life Survive Are you afraid to die? Afraid to be alive? This time I've made up my mind and I'm not wasting time Survival of the fittest Survive! Survive! Adversity devours the weak If you want it, go and get it Be relentless! We are relentless Adversity devours the weak If you want it, go and get it We are relentless Relentless!

I will expose, bear the scars Forever scream in the memory of the broken hearts Wave the flag for the cheated, the let down, defeated! Carry the torch! Suffer the cause shatter the reality My stomach's sick from disregard of actuality Recognize the lives cut short the victims of last resort Destroy the sound of silence! (silence) Bring light to the violence (violence) I will expose, bear the scars Forever scream in the memory of the broken hearts Wave the flag for the cheated, the letdown, defeated Carry the torch! For the abandoned ones left empty-handed Carry the torch! For the cheated, the letdown, defeated Carry the torch! These are the sons and the daughters The mothers and fathers we love Precious life ended abrupt then it’s just swept under the rug 3,000 people today crushed by the weight Too heavy to hold they took their lives away Recognize the lives cut short the victims of last resort Carry the torch! For the abandoned ones left empty-handed Carry the torch! For the cheated, the letdown, defeated Carry the torch! I will bear these scars for the broken hearts!

A picture perfect world of hurt A self destructing work of art She hit the bottom before her life could truly start 10 years young she lost her mother Everyday feeling out of place like a storm without thunder (a deep breath without air) Left with a heart that was punctured Every day trying to escape Now she sits there and wonders why life's so unfair Searching, still searching! For so much more! Is there life beyond that door? (knock knock) A self destructing work of art A picture perfect world of hurt! 7 years of pretending she's fine Acting out a fantasy but it's hell in her mind (tears in her eyes) She's at the end of the line and she decided to tie, a noose at the end this time Searching, still searching! For so much more! Is there life beyond that door? (knock knock) A self destructing work of art A picture perfect world of hurt! Lower than ever before but you're worth so much more Stuck inside this world of, hurt! World of hurt! So don't tell me tell me you're okay The truth hurts but hit me with it anyway You're my flesh and blood, a part of me And when you bleed I bleed A self destructing work of art She hit the bottom before her life could truly start Searching, still searching! For so much more! Is there life beyond that door? (knock knock) A self destructing work of art A picture perfect world of hurt!

I, feel like I've been here before Maybe, in a pipe dream, when I was 16 Sittin' in class, watchin' the minute hand pass And my mind only on one thing If, I could go, If, I could see If I could make my dreams a reality I want to touch the song I hear That's been ringing inside of me for years And you can watch from the sidelines No limits running through my mind I found the pulse and this heart’s alive No limits running through my mind So clear the clouds I'm gonna chase, chase the sky! I, feel like I've been here before Maybe, in a pipe dream, now it’s the real thing I'm living too fast to sit and watch the time pass Sun shinin' drip dryin' in Sydney I'll watch the sun go down in a foreign town Head still in the clouds with both feet on the ground Forever living loud Can you hear me now? If sky's the limit, I'm gonna tear it down! Tear it down! We're gonna tear it down! And you can watch from the sidelines! No limits running through my mind I found the pulse and this heart’s alive No limits running through my mind So clear the clouds I'm gonna chase, chase the sky! Chase the sky! No limits running through my mind I found the pulse and this heart’s alive No limits running through my mind So clear the clouds I'm gonna chase, chase the sky! Chase the sky! If sky's the limit, we're gonna tear it down Tear it down!

Wake me up I'm stuck in this bad dream I'm wide awake but I must be sleeping Or over-thinking, sinking, hoping, wishing That I'll just find peace (Help me) My reflection staring back at me (save me!) Is this the man you always wanted to be? Look at me looking back at me Can I trust the man I see? Behind these prison eyes I find it hard to sleep (I find it hard to breathe) With all the secrets that I keep Behind these prison eyes It took 3 long years for the floor to cave It took 2 steps back to see you weren't okay It took 1 hard look in the mirror (it's clearer) Now I count down the days until I go insane I don't feel safe inside my head anymore Nothing's the same as it was before Trapped in my own skin! My mind is racing, I can't stop pacing, back and forth (back and forth) I don't feel safe inside my head anymore Look at me looking back at me Can I trust the man I see? Behind these prison eyes I find it hard to sleep (I find it hard to breathe) With all the secrets that I keep Behind these prison eyes Look at me, looking back at me Look at me, looking back at me Haunted by old memories Look at me, looking back at me Look at me, looking back at me God grant me some kind of peace Wake me up! Wake me up! Look at me looking back at me Can I trust the man I see? Behind these prison eyes I find it hard to sleep (I find it hard to breathe) With all the secrets that I keep Behind these prison eyes

Momentum. Falling back to you I've become broken fragments, shattered, torn in two Momentum. Bring me back to you And finish what you started, finish what you started in me Lost love I lost myself Why did I put so much weight into somebody else? Lost heart I should've known from the start Instead I stood by and watched as my world fell apart When the storm rolled in and the waves came crashing down I sank straight to the bottom held my breath Then you pulled me up and pulled me in Momentum. Falling back to you I've become broken fragments, shattered, torn in two Momentum. Bring me back to you And finish what you started, finish what you started in me Lost faith simply out of spite I turned my back on the one that's always by my side Lost hope forgot my roots This time I plant my feet and I promise Promise not to move They say you don't know what you got ’til it's gone Well it took losing everything to find you were there all along When the storm rolled in and the waves came crashing down I sank straight to the bottom held my breath Then you pulled me up and pulled me in Momentum. Falling back to you I've become broken fragments, shattered, torn in two Momentum. Bring me back to you And finish what you started, finish what you started in me

I come and go like the tide Drifting like the wind on the open road But this location is my destination I'm always on my way back home I used to be a part of your wing Now I'm just a feather I was always right by your side Now I'm a drifter (drifter) Wherever I (go) wherever I (roam) I won't forget the place I call (home) Wherever I go wherever I roam This will always, always be my Hometown hold me tight I'm only here for one more night I'm only here for one more night (and I'm singin') Hometown hold me tight Cause I don't mind wasting my time So hometown hold me tight I come and go like the tide Return like the seasons So shine your beacon light I'll give you my reasons I'm sorry for leaving I wish we could be Frozen in time with this memory Make the clock stop! I wish we could be Frozen in time with this memory Make the clock stop And stop time with me! (drifter) Wherever I (go) wherever I (roam) I won't forget the place I call (home) Wherever I go wherever I roam This will always, always be my Hometown hold me tight I'm only here for one more night I'm only here for one more night (and I'm singin') Hometown hold me tight Cause I don't mind wasting my time So hometown hold me tight
