Creed - Young Grow Old

Song Title: Young Grow Old
Singer/Artist: Creed


He said he's falling to pieces
Fighting the boy and the man
Over his shoulder there was freedom
But consciousness has tied his hands
Embodied youth was his distinction

Now inhibition's in demand
So driven by his fear of weakness
That's his key to understand
So far in a distant land

There's a fight between boy and man
See the light through the open door
Sit and watch as the young grow old
Trading places in the circle

Turn the glass, spill the sand
They say that time can make the difference
But age doesn't make you a man
So far in a distant land

There's a fight between boy and man
See the light through the open door
Sit and watch as the young grow old

So young but overblown
So young but overblown
So young but overblown

Take a look now, see the boy is weakened
Watch him fade, watch him fade away
Take a bow and the boy is defeated
Is this the way, this the way?

So far in a distant land
There's a fight between boy and man
See the light through the open door
Sit and watch as the young grow old

Creed - Wrong Way

Song Title: Wrong Way
Singer/Artist: Creed


What makes you touch?
What makes you feel?
What makes you stop and smell the roses in an open field?
What makes you unclean?

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, Yeah
Yeah, yeah,
Yeah, yeah, Yeah
Yeah, Yeah

What makes you laugh?
What makes you cry?
What makes our youth run
From the thought that we might die?
What makes you bleed?

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, Yeah

Somebody told me the wrong way
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, Yeah
Somebody told me the wrong way

What if I died?
What did I give?
I hope it was an answer so you might live
I hope I helped you live
I hope I helped you live
I hope I helped you live
I hope I helped you live...live

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, Yeah

Somebody told me the wrong way

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, Yeah

Somebody told me the wrong way

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, Yeah

Creed - With Arms Wide Open

Song Title: With Arms Wide Open
Singer/Artist: Creed


Well I just heard the news today
It seems my life is going to change
I close my eyes, begin to pray
Then tears of joy stream down my face

With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything

With arms wide open
Well I don't know if I'm ready
To be the man I have to be
I'll take a breath, take her by my side

We stand in awe, we've created life

With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything

With arms wide open
Now everything has changed
I'll show you love
I'll show you everything

With arms wide open
If I had just one wish
Only one demand
I hope he's not like me
I hope he understands
That he can take this life
And hold it by the hand
And he can greet the world
With arms wide open...

Creed - Who's Got My Back?

Song Title: Who's Got My Back?
Singer/Artist: Creed


Run...hide
All that was sacred to us
Sacred to us
See the signs
The covenant has been broken
By mankind
Leaving us with no shoulder...with no shoulder
To rest our head on
To rest our head on
To rest our head on

Who's got my back now?
When all we have left is deceptive
So disconnected
So what is the truth now?

There's still time
All that has been devastated
Can be recreated
Realize
We pick up the broken pieces
Of our lives
Giving ourselves to each other...ourselves to each other
To rest our head on
To rest our head on
To rest our head on

Who's got my back now?
When all we have left is deceptive
So disconnected
So what is the truth now?

Tell me the truth now...Tell us the truth now

Who's got my back now?
When all we have left is deceptive
So disconnected
So what is the truth now?

Creed - What's This Life For?

Song Title: What's This Life For?
Singer/Artist: Creed



Hurray for a child
That makes it through
If there's any way

Because the answer lies in you
They're laid to rest
Before they know just what to do

Their souls are lost
Because they could never find
What's this life for

I see your soul, it's kind of gray
I see your heart, you look away
You see my wrist, I know your pain
I know your purpose on your plane
Don't say a last prayer

Because you could never find
What's this life for

But they ain't here anymore
Don't have to settle the score

Cause we all live
Under the reign of one king

Creed - What If

Song Title: What If
Singer/Artist: Creed


I can't find the rhyme in all my reason
Lost sense of time and all seasons
Feel I've been beaten down
By the words of men who have no grounds
Can't sleep beneath the trees of wisdom
When your ax has cut the roots that feed them
Forked tongues in bitter mouths
Can drive a man to bleed from inside out

What if you did?
What if you lied?
What if I avenge?
What if eye for an eye?

I've seen the wicked fruit of your vine
Destroy the man who lacks a strong mind
Human pride sings a vengeful song
Inspired by the times you've been walked on
My stage is shared by many millions
Who lift their hands up high because they feel this
We are one We are strong
The more you hold us down the more we press on

What if you did?
What if you lied?
What if I avenge?
What if eye for an eye?

I know I can't hold the hate inside my mind
'Cause what consumes your thoughts controls your life
So I'll just ask a question
A lonely simple question
I'll just ask one question
What if? What if?
What if? What if?
What If I?

What if? What if?
What if? What if?
What If I?

What if? What if?
What if? What if?
What If I?

What if? What if?
What if? What if?
What If I?

What if you did?
What if you lied?
What if I avenge?
What if eye for an eye?

What if your words could be judged like a crime?

What if? What if?
What if? What if?
What If I?

What if? What if?
What if? What if?
What If I?

What if? What if?
What if? What if?
What If I?

What if? What if?
What if? What if?
What If I?

Creed - Weathered

Song Title: Weathered
Singer/Artist: Creed


I lie awake on a long, dark night
I can't seem to tame my mind
Slings and arrows are killing me inside
Maybe I can't accept the life that's mine
No I can't accept the life that's mine

Simple living is my desperate cry
Been trading live with indifference yeah it suits me just fine
I try to hold on but I'm calloused to the bone
Maybe that's why I fell alone
Maybe that's why I feel alone

Me..I'm rusted and weathered
Barely holding together
I'm covered with skin that peels and it just won't heal

The sun shines and I can't avoid the light
I think I'm holding on to life too tight
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Sometimes I feel like giving up
Sometimes I feel like giving up

Me...I'm rusted and weathered
Barely holding together
I'm covered with skin that peels and it just won't heal

The day reminds me of you
The night hides your truth
The earth is a voice
Speaking to you
Take all this pride
And leave it behind
Because one day it ends
One day we die
Believe what you will
That is your right
But I choose to fight
So I choose to fight
To fight

Creed - Wash Away Those Years

Song Title: Wash Away Those Years
Singer/Artist: Creed


She came calling
One early morning
She showed her crown of thorns
She whispered softly
To tell a story
About how she had been wronged
As she lay lifeless
He stole her innocence
And this is how she carried on
This is how she carried on

Well I guess she closed her eyes
And just imagined everything's alright
But she could not hide her tears
'Cause they were sent to wash away those years
They were sent to wash away those years

My anger's violent
But still I'm silent
When tragedy strikes at home
I know this decadence Is shared by millions
Remember you're not alone
Remember you're not alone

Well if you just close your eyes
And just imagine everything's alright
But do not hide your tears
'Cause they were sent to wash away those years
Well if you just close your eyes
And just imagine everything's alright
But do not hide your tears
'Cause they were sent to wash away those years
They were sent to wash away those years
Maybe we can wash away those years

For we have crossed many oceans
And we labor in between
In life there are many quotients
And I hope I find the mean
the mean, the mean

Well if you just close your eyes
And just imagine everything's alright
But do not hide your tears
'Cause they were sent to wash away those years
Well if you just close your eyes
And just imagine everything's alright
But do not hide your tears
'Cause they were sent to wash away those years
Maybe we can wash away those years
I hope that you can wash away those years

Creed - Unforgiven

Song Title: Unforgiven
Singer/Artist: Creed


I kept up
With the prophecy you spoke
I kept up with the message inside
Lost sight of the irony
Of twisted faith

Lost sight of my soul and its void
Think I'm unforgiven to this world
Took a chance at deceiving myself
To share in the consequence of lies
Childish with my

Reasoning and pride
Godless to the extent that I died
Think I'm unforgiven to this world
Think I'm unforgiven

Step inside the light and see the fear
Of God burn inside of me
The gold was put to flame
To kill, to burn, to mold its purity

Creed - Torn

Song Title: Torn
Singer/Artist: Creed


Peace is what they tell me
Love am I unholy
Lies are what they tell me
Despise you that control me

The peace is dead in my soul
I have blamed the reasons for
My intentions poor
Yes I'm the one who
The only one who
Would carry on this far

Torn, I'm filthy
Born in my own misery
Stole all that you gave me
Control you claim you save me

The peace is dead in my soul
I have blamed the reasons for
My intentions poor
Yes I'm the one who
The only one who
Would carry on this far

Peace in my head
Love in my head
Lies lies lies lies in my head.

The peace is dead in my soul
I have blamed the reasons for
My intentions poor
Yes I'm the one who
The only one who
Would carry on this far

The peace is dead in my soul
I have blamed the reasons for
My intentions poor
Yes I'm the one who
The only one who
Would carry on this far

Creed - To Whom It May Concern

Song Title: To Whom It May Concern
Singer/Artist: Creed


Oh, I didn't mean to yell
But sometimes I get beside myself
And oh, I didn't mean to rush you
But time keeps pushing so much
Oh, time keeps pushing so much
Your eyes stare at me in the dark
And I hope those eyes
Don't steal my freedom

My freedom
Oh, If I didn't give it all
When I stood you made me crawl
And oh, if you never heard the song
Then I could still hide down behind the wall
Then I could still hide down behind the wall
Your eyes stare at me in the dark
And I hope those eyes
Don't steal my freedom

My freedom
And I hope those eyes
Don't steal my freedom
My freedom
Said eyes, those eyes
I said don't steal my freedom
Your eyes stare at me in the dark
And I hope those eyes
Don't steal my freedom

My freedom
Oh, my freedom
Your eyes stare at me in the dark
And I hope those eyes
Don't steal my freedom

My freedom
Oh, my freedom
Said eyes, those eyes
Said eyes, those eyes
I said don't steal my freedom

Creed - Stand Here With Me

Song Title: Stand Here With Me
Singer/Artist: Creed


You always reached out to me and helped me believe
All those memories we share
I will cherish every one of them
The truth of it is there's a right way to live
And you showed me
So now you live on in the words of a song
You're a melody

You stand here with me now

Just when fear blinded me you taught me to dream
I'll give you everything I am and still fall short of
What you've done for me
In this life that I live
I hope I can give love unselfishly
I've learned the world is bigger than me
You're my daily dose of reality

You stand here with me now

On and on we sing
On and on we sing this song

'Cause you stand here with me

Creed - Sister

Song Title: Sister
Singer/Artist: Creed


Caught up in the middle
Had no choice, had no choice
Birthright forgotten, so silent

No voice
I see you
You know who
Little girl, little girl
Now realize little girl
Overlooked little girl

Bottled up and empty holding back
At loss you're forgotten
Getting back, get back
Expectations of another
Love given to the younger
Broken father, broken brother
Emptiness feeds the hunger
I see you

You know who
Little sister, little sister
Now realize little sister
Overlooked little girl
Change, change, change

Creed - Signs

Song Title: Signs
Singer/Artist: Creed


This is not about age
Time served on the earth doesn't mean you grow in the mind
This is not about God
Spiritual insinuations seem to shock our nation

Come with me I'm fading underneath the lights
Come with me
Come with me
Come with me now

This is not about race
It's a decision to stop the division in your life
This is not about sex
We all know sex sells and the whole world is buying

Come with me I'm fading underneath the lights
Come with me
Come with me
Come with me now

Can't you see the signs?
See the signs now

Can't you see them?
See the signs
You see them
All the signs we see them
Can't you see them?

Creed - Say I

Song Title: Say I
Singer/Artist: Creed


The dust has finally settled on the field of Human Clay
Just enough light has shown through
To tell the night from the day
We are incomplete and hollow
For our maker has gone away

Who is to blame?
We'll surely melt in the rain

Say I, Say I
Say I, Say I
Say I, Say I

The stillness is so lifeless with no spirit in your soul
Like children with no vision do exactly what they're told
Being led into the desert
For your strength will surely fade

Who is to blame?
We'll surely melt in the rain

Say I, Say I
Say I, Say I
Say I, Say I

Say I, Say I
Say I, Say I
Say I, Say I

Frantic, faction, focus
The world breathes
And out forms this misconception we call man
But I don't know him
No, I don't know him
Because he lies..They lie

Say I, yeah
Say I, yeah
Say I, yeah
Say I, Say I
Say I, Say I

Creed - Roadhouse Blues

Song Title: Roadhouse Blues
Singer/Artist: Creed


Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel
Keep your eyes on the road, your hands upon the wheel
Yeah, we're going to the roadhouse, gonna have a real good time.
Yeah, the back of the roadhouse, they got some bungalows
Yeah, the back of the roadhouse, they got some bungalows
And that's for the people who like to go down slow.

Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll all night long.

You've got to roll, roll, roll
You've got to thrill my soul, all right
Roll, roll, roll, roll
Thrill my soul, etc.

Ashen lady
Ashen lady
Give up your vows
Give up your vows
Save our city
Save our city
Right now.

When I woke up this morning, I got myself a beer
When I woke up this morning, I got myself a beer
The future's uncertain and the end is always near.

Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll, baby, roll
Let it roll all night long.

Creed - Riders on the Storm

Song Title: Riders on the Storm
Singer/Artist: Creed


Riders on the storm.
Riders on the storm.
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out on loan.

Riders on the storm.
There's a killer on the road.
His brain is squirming like a toad.
Take a long holiday
Let your children play.
If you give this man a ride
Sweet family will die.
Killer on the road.

Girl, you gotta love your man.
Girl, you gotta love your man.
Take him by the hand
Make him understand
The world on you depends.
Our life will never end.
Girl, you gotta love your man.

Riders on the storm.
Riders on the storm
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out on loan.
Riders on the storm.

Riders on the storm.
Riders on the storm.
Riders on the storm.
Riders on the storm.

Creed - Pity For A Dime

Song Title: Pity For A Dime
Singer/Artist: Creed


An artificial season
Covered by summer rain
Losing all my reason
Cause there's nothing left to blame
Shadows paint the sidewalk
A living picture in a frame
See the sea of people
All their faces look the same

So I sat down for awhile
Forcing a smile
In a state of self-denial
Is it worthwhile
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime

Plain talk can be the easy way
Signs of losing my faith
Losing my faith
Plain talk can be the easy way
Signs of losing my faith
Losing my faith

So I sat down for awhile
Yeah, Forcing a smile
In a state of self-denial
Yeah, Is it worthwhile
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime

So I sat down for awhile
Yeah, Forcing a smile
In a state of self-denial
Yeah, Is it worthwhile
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime

Creed - One Last Breath

Song Title: One Last Breath
Singer/Artist: Creed


Please come now I think I'm falling
I'm holding on to all I think is safe
It seems I found the road to nowhere
And I'm trying to escape
I yelled back when I heard thunder
But I'm down to one last breath
And with it let me say
Let me say

Hold me now
I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking
That maybe six feet
Ain't so far down
I'm looking down now that it's over
Reflecting on all of my mistakes
I thought I found the road to somewhere
Somewhere in His grace
I cried out heaven save me
But I'm down to one last breath
And with it let me say
Let me say

Hold me now
I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking
That maybe six feet
Ain't so far down

Sad eyes follow me
But I still believe there's something left for me
So please come stay with me
'Cause I still believe there's something left for you and me
For you and me
For you and me

Hold me now
I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking

Creed - One

Song Title: One
Singer/Artist: Creed


Affirmative may be justified
Take from one give to another
The goal is to be unified
Take my hand be my brother
The payment silenced the masses
Sanctified by oppression
Unity took a backseat
Sliding further in regression
One The only way is one
I feel angry I feel helpless
Want to change the world
I feel violent I feel alone
Don't try and change my mind
Society blind by color
Why hold down one to raise another
Discrimination now on both sides
Seeds of hate blossom further
The world is heading for mutiny
When all we want is unity
We may rise and fall, but in the end
We meet our fate together
One The only way is one
I feel angry I feel helpless
Want to change the world
I feel violent I feel alone
Don't try and change my mind
