Born a Slave

I was born a slave in chains
Didn't matter what my mother would say
She was killed and taken away
It's getting harder to face the days
But in dark times I met a friend
We said we'd stick together 'til the end
But then they came and took him away
There's no way out of this pain
'Cause in the end it's all the same
We all end up playing the game
If you could fall from the sky
Maybe you could save my life
I'm afraid of what's to come
Every day we fall one by one
Another night in the same old cell
I'd rather be burning in hell
But in my dreams I see a light
Where I am running free day and night
But then they came and took me away
There's one way out of this pain
'Cause in the end it's all the same
We all end up playing the game
If you could fall from the sky
Maybe you could save my life
'Cause in the end it's all the same
We all end up playing the game
If you could fall from the sky
Maybe you could save my life
In the end it's all the same
We all end up playing the game
If you could fall down from the sky
Maybe you could save my life
And maybe you could save my life
I was born a slave in chains
Didn't matter what my mother would say
But then you came and saved me from the knife
And I can finally live my life

Lay Beside Me

There's a place that I know where we can both go
To leave our worries behind just for one night
Come and lay beside me
I'll make you believe
That in my arms you won't get lost in the sea
And lay beside me
And stare at the sky
The stars will guide us for the rest of our lives
Just lay beside me
All the stars up above have led us to love
I don't want this to end, let's meet here again
Come and lay beside me
I'll make you believe
That in my arms you won't get lost in the sea
And lay beside me
And stare at the sky
The stars will guide us for the rest of our lives
Just lay beside me
Come and lay beside me
I'll make you believe
That in my arms you won't get lost in the sea
And lay beside me
And stare at the sky
The stars will guide us for the rest of our lives
Just lay beside me
And lay beside me
Oh-oh
Just lay beside me

Givin' Up

Every single time that I hear your name
A little part of me just goes insane
It's such a shame
Everyone around us seems okay
I'm not really sure why we're not the same
And now I say
I'm givin' up, I can't believe
I've had enough and I won't let go
I'm broken down in the city streets
I never thought I'd run away from you
Every now and then there's a little light
But now I'm on the edge waiting for the fight
It's such a game
And as we're getting older I'm afraid
It'll be the same thing every day
And now I say
I'm givin' up, I can't believe
I've had enough and I won't let go
I'm broken down in the city streets
I never thought I'd run away from you
Ooh
Ooh
I'm givin' up, I can't believe
I've had enough and I won't let go
I'm broken down in the city streets
I never thought I'd run away
I'm givin' up, I can't believe
I've had enough and I won't let go
I'm broken down in the city streets
I never thought I'd run away from you
I'd run away from you
Ooh
Ooh

Another Day

Another day grows old in the city
Another day grows old and it's such a pity
How long will you let this go?
Another day that I will remember
Another fight breaks out and I won't surrender
How long will you let this go?
And I don't believe
It seems to me that I'm living in a mystery
And I don't believe
It seems to me that I'm living in a mystery
Oh-oh-oh-oh
I'm living in a mystery
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Another day that ends in December
Another day and night this will last forever
How long will you let this go?
Another road that leads to the river
Another boy in need that just can't deliver
How long will you let this go?
And I don't believe
It seems to me that I'm living in a mystery
And I don't believe
It seems to me that I'm living in a mystery
Oh-oh-oh-oh
I'm living in a mystery
Oh-oh-oh-oh
And I don't believe
It seems to me that I'm living in a mystery
And I don't believe
It seems to me that I'm living in a mystery
Oh-oh-oh-oh
I'm living in a mystery
Oh-oh-oh-oh

Never Gonna Leave You

Never Gonna Leave You
Late at night I'm all alone
You packed up 'cause you're ready to go
I could be your Romeo
'Cause all I want is
You knew that everything was right
Until we fell apart
You knew that everything was right
Tonight
I know that I'm never gonna leave you
Downtown in the city in the rearview
I know that I'm never gonna let you go
Now I know that you're afraid
When we're stuck outside in the rain
Hold my hand we'll find a way
'Cause all I want is
You knew that everything was right
Until we fell apart
You knew that everything was right
Tonight
I know that I'm never gonna leave you
Downtown in the city in the rearview
I know that I'm never gonna let you go
I know of the spirits that you're singing
Let go all the demons in the deep end
I know that I'm never gonna let you go
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
I know that I'm never gonna leave you
Downtown in the city in the rearview
I know that I'm never gonna let you go
And I know of the spirits that you're singing
Let go all the demons in the deep end
I know that I'm never gonna let you go
Never gonna let you go
I'm never gonna let you go
I'm never gonna let you go
I'm never gonna let you go
