The Spark

Back in time
She was eager to be by his side
And now that she’s lonely
Thinking of the things he should have said

I know what you want
And I know what you need
Oh baby I’m trying
You know I’m trying
So have mercy on me

While she weeps
In the corner of a winter night
All that she knows
Is that it’s all become a pack of lies

I know what you want
And I know what you need
Oh baby I’m trying
You know I’m trying
So have mercy on me

How can anybody
See the way you feel now
Underneath your story
And try to read between the lines

If you’re somebody else
It’s all lies and lies again
If you’re somebody else
I wanna let you know

You try to lead a life
That was meant to be
For someone else
Now get your act back together

How can you be angry
After all these years of lies
You’re running after glory
How can I ever understand the signs

If you're somebody else
lies and lies again
If you’re somebody else
I‘ve got to let you know

You try to lead a life
That was meant to be
For someone else
Now get your act back together
You’ve got to get it back together

I believe in a few things
I believe in you and I
Guess I believe in your words of hope
And that all will one day be as one
I believe in a few things
I believe in your freedom
I believe in love and hope
And that all will one day be as one

Do listen up
Even to the smallest little things
All around you

I believe in a few things
I believe in your smile
Yes I believe in equality
And that all will one day be as one

Do listen up
Even to the smallest little things
All around you

This sensation makes you wonder why
We’re all fighting for the same wonder lights
In uniting we’d be so much wiser
This sensation makes you wanna fly
Far away from the troubles in your head
Colors are fading on the human race

We gotta keep it all together
Keep it all together

The situation’s in a hurry now
If we don’t seek the moment in time
Everything will soon be out of sight
The situation makes you wanna cry
All the tears and spells of the past
Colors are fading on the human race

We gotta keep it all together
Keep it all together

I was fifteen minutes alone
When a voice said you’d better be ready
You’ll have no place to hide to
When they set these missiles on you
I was all by myself
When I heard
You’d better be ready
You’ll have nowhere to run to
When they set these missiles on you

I don’t know why oh why
I don’t know why
Tell me why

I was fifteen minutes alone
When a voice said you should never go hungry
There is so much around us
You just have to free your mind
All by myself when I heard
You’d better be sorry
You’ll have no one to pray to
When they set these missiles on you

I don’t know why oh why
I don’t know why
Tell me why

This time I’m gonna give myself more chance
This time I’ll hold on the game
Hold all the way but
This time I’m gonna give a piece of your mind
This time I’ll hold all the way

All the lies I hear float around me
Keep screaming through the same dream
All night I would feed the spirit
Through the sky, I find my freedom

I won’t go even if you’re gonna let me down
I won’t run even if you’re gonna put me down

When I’m down and tired
I look up and think of my ancestors
Then I try so bad
To keep my head above the water
When I’m low and out
I look up and think of my ancestors
Then I try so bad
To fulfill my day with a smile

Upset the weather
Upset about the rain
Upset about the bus ride
See how they all add up to nothing
But when my eyes look up
I see your eyes look down
And I hear you whisper

'Cause you’ve got many complications
Instead of always thinking to liberate the combinations
Why don’t you look at yourself in the mirror
And make a relation
Why don’t I tell myself you can do it
Help your nation

When I’m wrong and bad
I look up and think of my ancestors
Then I try so hard
To be the one that you’re looking for
When I’m low and out
I look up and think of my ancestors
Then I try so hard
To keep my head up high

Upset the weather
Upset about the rain
Upset about the bus ride
See how they all add up to nothing
But when my eyes look up
I see your eyes look down
And I hear you whisper

'Cause you’ve got many complications
Instead of always thinking to liberate the combinations
Why don’t you look at yourself in the mirror
And make a relation
Why don’t I tell myself you can do it
Help your nation

Vain, vain, vain, vain
I’m so vain
I think I’m falling for you
Vain, vain, vain, vain
I’m so vain
I think I’m falling for you

The way that you hunt me
'Cause everything is always all about you
And the way that you front me every time
Try to break away from tried and true

The way that you hunt me
Coz everything is always all about you
And the that you front me every time
I try to break away from tried and true

But I’ll be alright
Just as long as you keep me funky
So keep me funky

Vain, vain, vain, vain
I’m so vain
I think I’m falling for you
Vain, vain, vain, vain
I’m so vain
I think I’m falling for you

I’ll liberate myself from years
Of all these fantasies about you
Now I’m ready to stand, stand tall
And face what I believed to be impossible

But I’ll be alright
Just as long as you keep me funky
So keep me funky

Vain, vain, vain, vain
I’m so vain
I think I’m falling for you
Vain, vain, vain, vain
I’m so vain
I think I’m falling for you

I am moving and I am feeding
My spirit and my soul and the you
Turn me inside out
I am running from all that’s dragging me
down and then you
Turn me inside out
