I wish I knew then
What I know now
Wouldn't dive in
Wouldn't bow
down
Gravity hurts
You made it so sweet
Till I woke up on
On the
concrete
Thunder rumbling
Castles crumbling
I am trying to hold
on
God knows that I tried
Seeing the bright side
But I'm not blind
anymore
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
"Wide Awake"

How I Failed Five Today
Why did I buy Log Cabin syrup? Don't I remember when he was six, and he told me
he SPECIFICALLY doesn't like Log Cabin syrup?

Lyrics to Live By
Wake up if you believe
Love is not a fading dream
Tell me I'm not the only one
Who feels this way right now
Lonely needs a friend
Ask him where he's been
You could be the Light that comes
And turns his world around
I don't wanna run, I don't wanna hide
When someone needs somebody
I don't wanna say, I don't got the time
When someone needs somebody
With a little faith and a little soul
We can't go wrong
We can't go wrong
"The Vision of Love"

How I Failed Five Today
Really disappointed him by just turning out the lights and not even rubbing his
back. He was really disappointed in me.

Lyrics to Live By
See the world in green and blue
See China right in front of you
See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
See the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colours came out
It was a beautiful day
A beautiful day
Don't let it get away
"Beautiful Day"
U2
See China right in front of you
See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
See the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colours came out
It was a beautiful day
A beautiful day
Don't let it get away
"Beautiful Day"

Lyrics to Live By
Well, I'm going home, back to the place where I belong
And where your love has always been enough for me
I'm not running from, no, I think you got me all wrong
I don't regret this life I chose for me
But these places and these faces are getting old
So I'm going home, well I'm going home
"Home"
DAUGHTRY
And where your love has always been enough for me
I'm not running from, no, I think you got me all wrong
I don't regret this life I chose for me
But these places and these faces are getting old
So I'm going home, well I'm going home
"Home"
DAUGHTRY
How I Failed Five Today
Told him to close his eyes and go to sleep. I know he has fears, real ones, and
that he feels better if a grown-up is in the room. Yes, there are at least six
people in the house at all times, but he's paranoid, and it doesn't matter if
Four is in bed next to him, because he's already asleep and that doesn't
help.
