“POMPEII BASTILLE”
By BAD BLOOD
Eheu eh-o eheu eh-o [x8]
I was left to my own devices
Many days fell away with nothing to show
And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Great clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above
But if you close your eyes,
Does it almost feel like
Nothing changed at all?
And if you close your eyes,
Does it almost feel like
You've been here before?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
We were caught up and lost in all of our vices
In your pose as the dust settled around us
And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Great clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above
But if you close your eyes,
Does it almost feel like
Nothing changed at all?
And if you close your eyes,
Does it almost feel like
You've been here before?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
Eheu eh-o eheu eh-o [x4]
Oh where do we begin?
The rubble or our sins?
Oh oh where do we begin?
The rubble or our sins?
And the walls kept tumbling down (oh where do we begin?)
In the city that we love (the rubble or our sins?)
Great clouds roll over the hills (oh where do we begin?)
Bringing darkness from above (the rubble or our sins?)
But if you close your eyes,
Does it almost feel like
Nothing changed at all?
And if you close your eyes,
Does it almost feel like
You've been here before?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
If you close your eyes, does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
Eheu eh-o eheu eh-o [x8]

New Divide
By Lincoln Park
I remembered black skies
The lightning all around me
I remembered each flash
As time began to blur
Like a startling sign
That fate had finally found me
And your voice was all I heard
That I get what I deserve
So give me reason
To prove me wrong
To wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross
The distance in your eyes
Give me reason
To fill this hole
Connect the space between
Let it be enough to reach the truth that lies
Across this new divide
There was nothing in sight
But memories left abandoned
There was nowhere to hide
The ashes fell like snow
And the ground caved in
Between where we were standing
And your voice was all I heard
That I get what I deserve
So give me reason
To prove me wrong
To wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes
Across this new divide
In every loss
In every lie
In every truth that you'd deny
And each regret
And each goodbye
Was a mistake to great to hide
And your voice was all I heard
That I get what I deserve
So give me reason
To prove me wrong
To wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes
Give me reason
To fill this hole
Connect the space between
Let it be enough to reach the truth that lies
Across this new divide
Across this new divide
Across this new divide
“One Step Away”
by Casting Crowns
What if you could go back and relive one day of your life all over again I think it
means that what would you do if you could go and change something in you life.
And unmake the mistake that left you a million miles away
From the you, you once knew
Now yesterday's shame keeps saying that you'll never get back on track
But what if I told you
You're one step away from surrender
One step away from coming home, coming home
One step from arms wide open
His love has never let you go
You're not alone
You're one step away
It doesn't matter how far you've gone
Mercy says you don't have to keep running down the road you're on
Love's never met a lost cause
Your shame, lay it down
Leave your ghosts in the past 'cause you know that you can't go back
But you can turn around
You've never been more than
One step away from surrender
One step away from coming home, coming home
One step from arms wide open
His love has never let you go
You're not alone (not alone)
You're one step away
You're one step away
Lay down, lay down your old chains
Come now, and take up your new name
Your best life up ahead now
You're one step away
Lay down, lay down your old chains
Come now, and take up your new name
Your best life up ahead now
You're one step away
Lay down, lay down your old chains
Come now, and take up your new name
Your best life up ahead now
You're one step away
So come on home, come on home
One step from arms wide open
His love has never let you go
You're not alone (you're not alone)
You're one step away
Lay down, lay down your old chains
Take up, take up your new name
Lay down, lay down your old chains
Take up, take up your new name
Lay down, lay down your old chains
Come now, take up your new name
Your best life up ahead now
One step away
Lay down, lay down your old chains
Come now, and take up your new name
Your best life up ahead now
You're just one step away
If i were in charge of the world

Stanza 1
If I were in charge of the world
I would make the best of it
I would make everything equal
If I were in charge of the world
Stanza 2
If I were in charge of the world
I would say "Let There Be No More Slaves"
I would make world hunger end
If I were in charge of the world
Stanza 3
If I were in charge of the world
I would make high school more of what you want
I would say " WE ARE PEOPLE CELEBRATE THAT WE ARE ALIVE"
If I were in charge of the world
Stanza 4
If I were in charge of the world
I would make the poor become rich and the rich help the poor
I would give out free meals on the holidays
If I were in charge of the world
