If I find the answer
Verse 1
The pain is getting stronger
It's selfish like I am
I feel your hands upon me
Is that you my friend?
Chorus
If I find the answer
It's not gonna be here
Verse 2
My friend the pain is gone now
and I, I know no shame
my optimism's fading
but for now I feel no blame
Chorus
If I find the answer
It's not gonna be here

Ordinary Guy
Intro
Chorus
I'm an ordinary guy
I'm an ordinary guy
I'm an ordinary guy like you want
I'm an ordinary guy
I can't move a bridge or fly
I'm just an ordinary guy like you want

Sometimes I feel the pressure
Oh the pressure
Feels like my brain is about to explode
As I turn to walk away
I straighten up and stay
I've got the inner peace to carry this load

The icicles have hit the ground now
They keep me in
Inside my cell
As I turn to break away
I straighten up and stay
I keep my covered back against the well OH!
Break

I'm an ordinary guy
I'm an ordinary guy
I'm an ordinary guy
I'm an ordinary guy

Hesitate
I can't remember this
I've hit it
No, I've missed
I'm floating
No, I'm falling
I can't believe I'm falling
There was a better time
I could make up my mind
but now you'll have to wait
as I hesitate
When I hesitate, you know
I lose my mind.
Tried to nail it once again
I missed again my friend
My floating's changed to falling
And this is all I see...
There was a better time
I could make up my mind
I've changed,
you'll have to wait
while I hesitate
When I hesitate, you know,
I lose my mind.

Memory
Verse 1
I waited for you to show up,
Finally smiling
I waited for you to show up at all
I thought that I saw you, I thought that I heard
It looked like an angel.
Where are you, my dear?
Chorus (NO VOX)
Verse 2
Is that you? If it is you here I am, yes, here I am!
Here I am dear. Right behind you. All around you.
Here I am.
I've been gone for so long. Do you wonder where I am?
I can see you, even feel you. You don't see me 'cause I'm gone.
Can you hear me, hear me screaming? I'm here screaming for you.
As I tap you on the shoulder and I fade out into blue.
Chorus I can tell I'm slipping away from your memory.
I can tell I'm slipping away from you
Bridge I can tell you right now you take nothing with you
I can tell you right now you won't need anything
I can tell you right now you'll leave your troubles behind.
Verse 3 Can you hear me, hear me screaming? I'm here screaming for you.
As I tap you on the shoulder and I fade out into blue.
Chorus I can tell I'm slipping away from your memory.
I can tell I'm slipping away from you
