Get a hold of yourself
Your life isn’t over
Don’t give it up and let it go
Don’t let your life take over

More than anyone else
Elicit your strength
And give ‘em hell
Open your eyes
See your destiny
Look at your future
What does this mean?

Tell me your story
I want to know the truth
What is it you long for

In red and black
The battle is waiting

Whether you win or lose
Victory or death
Either one awaits you!

Title: A Shattered Dream is a Dream Come True
Artist: Adaku
CD: N/A
Track: N/A

Chorus:
I try
But they never let me try hard enough
I fall
But to them I never fall hard enough
I can’t
When I try, I try so hard to get up
I’ve died
When I try, they go so far to knock me down
A shattered dream is a dream come true

V1:
Suck it up
Cuz you’re never gonna live the life you wanted
Give it up
Cuz the things you want ain’t the things you got
And move along
Cuz your dreams will never come true

Pre-chorus1:
A hole in one
I remember when I got one
Hole in my chest
A dream come true
I remember when it happened
Shattered like glass (yeah!)

(Chorus)

V2:
Fight back
Beat ‘em up and leave ‘em broken
Take it back
Everything you want, what you had, the life they’ve stolen
And burn it all
Cuz our dreams will never come true

Pre-chorus2:
A hole in one
I remember when they got one
A hole in their chest
A dream come true
I remember when it happened
Shattered like glass (yeah!)

(Chorus)

Bridge:
The hypocrites they had their chance
We took it all [and] burned the evidence
Now you’ve got your chance turn your life around
From rags to riches, it knows no bounds
Your life is bound to change

(Pre-chorus2)

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

Title: [Untitled]
Artist: Adaku
CD: N/A
Track: N/A

V1:
To find the love I wanted
I ******** up
And left but
A pile of nothing for my use
To try and make things better
Instead I needed yours
To find the one I needed
You are that one
But you slipped away so I’ll just move on
To what I want

Chorus:
The only thing that will mend this heart
But something more
Than just a kiss
But a love that will last forever
To be right there at your door
To more than friends
But I won’t change
To suffer to be with someone else
I try to break
The shadow of
The love that I always wanted but
Not what I needed
You instead
I can’t find you

V2:
Something tells me there’s something more
I know there is but
It’s not right for me
And something tells me I'm something more
I know I am but
I don’t know what it is
But I know that
You are that one
But you slipped away so I’ll just move on
To what I want

(Chorus)

Bridge:
The gentle tap on the door I wish
To be with you just once more I plead
That it is you to spend forever
I'm going out of my mind
I'm spinning out of control
I can’t find you
I can’t be with you!

(Chorus)

(Chorus repeats in background)

[A knock on the door. The door opens.]
(Spoken):
Guy: So this is how it ends. I love you.
Girl: Yeah, I love you too. I wish I could be with you forever.
Guy: God, I wish so too. Well, this is good-bye.
[They kiss]
[Gun clicks, shoots. Music stops abruptly.]

Title: Troubled and Hurt
Artist: Adaku
CD: N/A
Track: N/A

V1:
Falling asleep but I
Don’t wanna close my eyes
I wanna see that ugly face of mine
Still, I'm tossing and turning
I can’t make up my mind
Should I stick together
Should I leave it all behind
This one last time to shine
Biting my nails
Wiping the blood off of my lips
And taste the venom of my audience
Staring and mocking at the masochist
Ripping and tearing apart all sadists
Cuz you’re the next one on my list!

Chorus:
Troubled and hurt
Yes, I guess that’s the word
I guess that’s me you’re talking ‘bout
Troubled and hurt
Yes, that’s all it is worth
I guess it’s me that’s lashing out
Troubled and hurt
Deprived of blood on the shirt
I’ve got to feed, feed me your doubt
The more and more that I search
The more I'm troubled and hurt

V2:
Trying to sleep but I
Can’t seem to close my eyes
Don’t wanna see that ugly face of mine
Still, insomnia wins
And it is sucking me in
Should I just give up
Or should I try and just give in
This one last time to sin
Biting my nails
Wiping the blood off of my lips
And taste the venom of my audience
Staring and mocking at the masochist
Ripping and tearing apart all sadists
Cuz you’re the next one on my list!

(Chorus)

The more I'm troubled and hurt!
The more I'm desperate
The more I need your help
The more I'm ******** dead!

(Chorus)

Troubled and hurt!

Title: Strangers
Artist: Adaku
CD: N/A
Track: N/A

V1:
They don’t seem to see me
They don’t seem to notice when I wave
They don’t seem to know me
They don’t seem to understand me
I seem to walk these streets alone (echo)
I try to change the future
Tremble as I stumble
I try to make a difference
I try to make a difference
~~~
Breaking sounds
Loud and clear
But they don’t seem to ever hear
Deaf and dumb I walk through Hell
Tripping on each word
Pitiful enough to care
Someone ******** save me!

Chorus1:
Try to forget but remember
I was so lost but I found
Darkness on the bright side
Of happiness seems so sad
Trying to give up
On familiarity of strangers
When we’re all dying to live
When we’re just living to die

V2:
They don’t care to listen
They don’t care to hear me when I call
They don’t care to care
They don’t care to pick me up when I fall
I care to walk these streets alone (echo)
I want to seek my vengeance
Crawling back when I fail
I want to kill those strangers
I want to kill those strangers
~~~
Bloodshot eyes
Open wide
But they won’t ever take my side
Strong as steel I walk through Hell
Tripping on my words
Envious enough to care
Someone ******** save me!

Chorus2:
Try to see with my eyes closed
Dreaming when I'm wide awake
Believe the unbelievable
Of drowning in my fire
Fighting my freedom
Of acquainting with those strangers
When we’re all dying to live
When we’re just living to die

Bridge:
Lost and found
Find me again
I never thought that I was such a fool to lose myself
Again
Find my lost soul NOW!

(Chorus 1&2)
Chorus3:
Trying to give to takers
Reward the unsuccessful
Fixing what isn’t broken
Filling it with the empty
Look up when I'm down
And see those familiar strangers
When we’re all dying to live
When we’re just living to die

Title: I Will Get You Back (Forever For A Lifetime)
Artist: Adaku
CD: N/A
Track: N/A

V1:
I’ve failed, I'm sorry
Please try to, forgive me
But I can’t leave you
And you can’t see me
But when I'm right in front of your eyes
We’re torn apart
Come so close to
Fade away
Just die away
~~~
I have conquered my fears
I’ve even crossed the line
But I can’t find you
Because I hide from you
Hide from the unknown
Come so close to
Fade away
Just die away

Pre-chorus:
Time for the breath of life
Time for the kiss of death
Time to get you back

Chorus:
I will get you back
Hold you tight in my arms
Be the one to love you
I will get you back
Kiss you on your lips
Come back to me
Forever for a lifetime

V2:
Broken like the shattered glass
Shattered like the broken dreams
Dying like I never knew you before
Trying hard to love again
Loving just to try again
Falling like I never knew you were there
Save me one more time I beg of you
Save me one more time I beg of you
Cuz you’re my only hope to come back home

(Pre-chorus)

(Chorus)

Synchronized:
Broken like the glass/Save me one more time
Shattered like the dreams/Save me one more time
Dying like I never knew you before
Trying just to love/Save me one more time
Loving just to try/Save me one more time
Falling like I never knew you were there
Save me one more time, Save me one more time
Forever for a lifetime

(Pre-chorus)

(Chorus)

I will get you back
I will get you back
Forever for a lifetime
Forever for a lifetime…

Title: Disdain and Disorder, Break and Fall (Runaway)
Artist: Adaku
CD: N/A
Track: N/A

V1:
This treasure I seek
Sunk deep inside
Inside the place
My lover died
This cave no light
Brings me to tears
This feeling I fight
Brings out all my fears

Pre-chorus1:
I'm lost, I'm lost (echo)
I'm lost, I'm lost (echo)
Bring me back
Bring me back, inside!

Chorus:
I want to love
I want to live
Without my love
I want to die
This heart I hate
Beating so fast
This pain it loves
Racing to Death
It wants to RUNAWAY!!!

V2:
Bring it all back
This treasure locked
I keep in my heart
Society’s ********
Give it all back
Leave, JUST ******** OFF! (Leave, ********!)
You must go past…
You must go past!
(Take my sin!)

Pre-chorus2:
You’re lost, you’ve lost (echo)
You’re lost, you’ve lost (echo)
Bring it back
Bring it back, to me!

(Chorus)

Runaway! Runaway!
Runaway! Runaway!

Bridge:
And then one day
And then one day I die
My heart lives on
And it says, “GOODBYE!”

(Chorus)

RUN-A-WAY!!!

Title: Devil Kiss (To Burn Your Lips)
Artist: Adaku
CD: N/A
Track: N/A

V1:
Take a stance and wait in line
If you’re searching for what you’ll never find
Cuz every time you slip my mind
I'm bruised, I'm scarred a thousand times
Never think ‘bout me anymore
Too open-minded so therefore
Too many thoughts they overwhelm
The clearer side, the darker realm

Chorus:
Cuz if you can’t hear me then
Shut the ******** up
And if you can’t see me then
Close your eyes
Cuz the heart of my pain is in you
And since I can’t feel you
I’ll slit my wrists
And dedicate these scars
To the one I love
Cuz the heart of my pain is in you

V2:
The treachery, the swollen parts
The barely beating of my [broken] heart
I see you hiding in the dark
I'm broken down [in]to a thousand parts
Never take my hand again
Or kiss my lips, kiss my poison
Too many drops, you overdose
But once was far, you’re getting close

(Chorus)

Bridge:
Oh trust me, I can’t feel you!
Shed your light, I can’t see you!
Fight the demons
Clear my path
Out of my way
I search for Death!

(Chorus)

Cuz the heart
Of my pain
Is in you!
