EMPTY LIVES
JJ got a piece and he's learnin' how to use it 
If he can't findrelease then some day real soon he's gonna loose it B
ut nobody sees him turnin' 
or knows that in side he's burnin' 
looking for a chance to go out in side a fiery blaze 

Jodie has one chance and she knows she has to take it 
She's the on ly one who jj knows will never fake it

'Who do you think you're fooling?  Why would I walk on by? I can see what you're doing But I just don't know why

You don't want to have to climb your mountain  
want to sail away  to some other shore 
Are you gonna find somebody there who loves you more? 
you don't want to think a bout the future if there ain't no light to see 
but I'm gonna show you there's a light when you're with me.

Empty Lives

I didn't know I could ever feel like this
And there's a fire that's deep inside
You keep me wondering if you are real about this
Is it just another game for you to try? 

I know you thought that we might by chance that night
That we just caught one another's eyes
But there is much more to this than circumstance
There are stories that are written in the skies

Chorus 

I know there is higher destiny
Than you can see
And that there is a reason why
Some things are made to be

No I don't hear imaginary voices
I don't make any fortune cookie choices
But you can't hear the single word inside your heart
So we are falling apart.

It really isn't such a mystery
When you have seen
That there must be a reason why some things are made to be

So don't remain alone in your confusion
You know inside your heart it's no delusion
No matter how it's been for us there is another way
When you hear what the single word inside is trying to say
