Is Anybody Out There?

Sometimes I sit and think about the way we used to be
Just you and me
Next thing I know you walk right out the door
What happened there? You never cared
But sometimes I feel like shouting to the world, "Is anybody out there?"
Hello, hello, hello, is anybody out there?
I used to try to fit in with the crowd
The way I dressed, the way I talked
It wasn't long before they kicked me out
I tried my best, but I'm better off
But sometimes I feel like shouting to the world, "Is anybody out there?"
Hello, hello, hello, is anybody out there

I give up on myself sometimes
And I think I'm good for nothing at all, and I say,
"Us dreamers are like wishing dimes
Or like fishes scattered in the deep blue sea," but today,
I have a sense of who I am
And I don't give a damn if you walk away from the deal
I'd rather be a high-class act
Until someone says that they're counting me in it for real
'Cause I don't care if anybody's waiting for me at the other side, no
And I don't care if the money's in it for me if I sacrifice my pride
So get gone with the wind
If my self-esteem is not enough to break me in
Give it up, take a hint
If you walk away, you say I lose, I say I win
So get gone, so get gone
Get gone, get gone, whoa
Get gone, get gone, whoa
So get gone
Wonderland became a battlefield
When they put me in a desk, put a textbook in my hand
Got some wounds that I know will heal
As I keep on walking, dragging my feet through the sand
I don't know where I'm going yet
But it doesn't mean that I can't feel the beat of my heart
I'll take it with me where I go
And I'm hoping it's to the place that I've loved from the start
'Cause I don't care if anybody's waiting for me at the other side, no
And I don't care if the money's in it for me if I sacrifice my pride
So get gone with the wind
If my self-esteem is not enough to break me in
Give it up, take a hint
Iff you walk away, you say I lose, I say I win
So get gone. So get gone
Get gone, get gone, whoa
Get gone, get gone, whoa

Looks like the odds are not in favor of me
Don't know how long he'll stick around to love me, no
But I've got a funny feeling that everything is gonna be alright
And I've got a funny feeling that in a couple months I'll be doing fine
The future's hard to read
Guess it's just dandy once you see
That it's a crazy world with one too many lines
I took a shot and failure overtook me, yes it did
I cast my lot; the losing numbers shook me, oh
But I've got a funny feeling that everything is gonna be alright
And I've got a funny feeling that in a couple months I'll be doing fine The future's hard to read; guess it's just dandy once you see
That it's a crazy world with one too many lines.
And hold your breath and count to ten, then get back up and try again Remember when I said that this is not the end
But I've got a funny feeling that everything is gonna be alright
And I've got a funny feeling that in a couple months I'll be doing fine
The future's hard to read; guess it's just dandy once you see
That it's a crazy world with one too many lines.

Lost In The Fire

When I call, just why do you hang up?
When I fall, just why don't you pick me up?
When I dream, just why don't you believe in me?
And when I sleep, just why don't you sleep next to me anymore?
Because our love got lost in the fire
'Cause our love got lost in the game
'Cause our love got lost in the call of the crowd
And it won't be found again
No it won't be found again, no it won't be found again
[na na na]
When I cry, just why do you push me around?
And when I fly, just why do you cut me down?
And when I love, just why don't you love me, too?
And when I run, I'm gonna run away from you
Because our love got lost in the fire
'Cause our love got lost in the game
'Cause our love got lost in the call of the crowd
And it won't be found again
No, it won't be found again, no it won't be found again
No it won't be found again, no it won't be found again

When the music fades to black and when your lighter's outta fluid
When the coppers throw the book at you for doing something stupid When you're jaded and you're lonely and the world's about to end
Just remember something beautiful is just around the bend
When the timing isn't right and when the sky is looking dreary
When the stars all need aligning but their lighting makes you weary
When exasperation strikes you and you've nothing to defend
Just remember something beautiful is just around the bend
When your love runs out of breath and the duet becomes a solo
And when finding why you're here becomes a game of Marco-Polo...
you know, the thing about that game is that you'll always find a friend.
Just remember something beautiful is just around the bend.
Just remember something beautiful is just around the bend.
