By Nikka Costa

I'm coming out of my wishin well
Where only echoes lonely hear my prayers
I'm coming around to bending
Cause my resistance's been far too persistent
I've come too far to force it
so I'll watch it slide and land
I could come on strong and willful but
I'd rather watch it fall to the palm of my hand

(Chorus)
And when I
set it free
like a feather
it will be
And when I rise
to see it done
like whatever
it will be
it will be

I'm taking a breather baby
From sitting on pins waiting for my sky to fall
I'm taking up giving in
So here's the wheel, I'm putting my feet up
Take another look at me baby
Today I'm taking on catastrophe
I'd rather take it easy
Than try to force what's on its way to me

(Chorus)

We're only afraid if we pull back the blinds too far
The light behind that we free will blind other stars
But the truth doesn't blind it helps to see far
So get ready to be
Who you are
Your rating:
My face to the sky
Dreaming about just how high
I could go and if I know
When I finally get there

Taking off my glasses
Sun pokes through my lashes
And somehow I know
There's a time for every star to shine

(Chorus:)
Everybody got their something
Everybody got there something
Make you smile like an itty bitty child

People keeping score
Say better hurry up and get yours
Cause somebody else
Got your spot
Before you even dropped

Seek and you shall find
Everything in your my sweet time
I'll take my chances
With what I believe is only mine

Busy holding on
So the roof don't fly
Keep you from moving on
So get it right
Turn the tide over
Like a love song
Like a butterfly
Believe if you hand it over
You'll come out all right

(Chorus)

Illuminate the silly things
Shed some light on all that's wrong
Everybody need it
Sometime
Sometimes the only thing you got
is what makes you feel like
You're something else altogether
You have everything don't need
another reason to be something
I've been on a ride
and caught up in the landslide
But I'm gonna spread my wings and fly...

(Chorus)

There's a time for every star
There's a time for every star ...

Mr. Nothing's got a lot,
He's got a lot to say,
He's good at being what he's not,
Gives nothing away,
Another day goes on by,
And he never speaks his heart,
He takes his chance with what he's got,
It's too late now to stop...

You push and you pull and struggle with the knot,
It's tying you up while you're fadin',
You give and you take and take what you got,
'Round and 'round 'till it breaks and,
You push and you pull and struggle with the knot,
It's tying you up while you're fadin' into your lie...

Mr. Nothing is late,
He's running out of time,
He questions whether chance or fate will ever show a sign,
Looks to the sky above,
For a glimpse of what it means,
And now or never, never made,
Made more sense to him...

You push and you pull and struggle with the knot,
It's tying you up while you're fadin',
You give and you take and take what you got,
'Round and 'round 'till it breaks and,
You push and you pull and struggle with the knot,
It's tying you up while you're fadin' into your lie...
You push and you pull it...
Your rating:
Meet me in the stillness
Away from all this madness
I'll give you a piece of me
If you'll give me a moment
To let you into the corners of my mind

I looked into a stranger
And found my soul waiting there
It hit me like a siren
To see myself everywhere
And I saw that I knew him like the corners of my mind

And like every other soul
You feel the night come on hard & go slow
And life goes on and on and it goes
In the corners of my mind

So shed your skin for me
Let's pull back the covers
There's so much about ourselves
We've yet to discover
So won't you let me in to the corners of your mind

We pass on chances with our eyes to the ground
It only takes a minute to see what's around
But instead we choose to reside in the corners of our minds

So I stand before you now
Faulty but not broken
Fragile like the break of day
And sometimes sad like words unspoken
But I'll let you in
I'll let you in to the corners of my mind

And like every other soul
You feel the night come on hard and go slow
And life goes on and on and it goes
In the corners of my mind
The corners of my mind
