EVERY MAN FOR HIMSELF GUIIITA R D R U M S VOCALS Dan Estrin Chris Hesse Douglas Robb T R A C K with eyes closed tightly, i march so blindly, pretending every- thing’s fine ‘cause you’re there to keep me in line... i don’t want your guidance, so i’ll break my silence. so sick of asking and Douglas Robb being denied, now i realize... we’re holding the key to unlock our destiny, we were born to lead. we are finally free, no longer fol- LY R III C S lowing, we were born to lead. we were born to lead... you can’t ignore me, you can’t think for me. your world will come crashing down to the ground ‘cause i’ve figured you out... i used to think i’m all alone, but now i see our numbers grow. i’m not afraid to Daniel Estrin break away, think on my own! with eyes wide open, my new life MUSIIIC begins, without you there to tell me when, where and how, and you can’t stop me now... T RA C K i stand before a road that will lead into the unknown, at least unknown to me. i want to go but i’m paralyzed with fear, fear of a Douglas Robb choice where the outcome isn’t clear... but still i go... and i take the LY R III C S first step of a million more, and i’ll make mistakes i’ve never made before, but at least i’m moving forward... at least i’m moving forward. i wonder if the journey will be as short as i hope or much longer Daniel Estrin than it seems, but either way i’ve made up my mind. i’m through feel- & Douglas Robb ing scared. i’m leaving that behind. so now it’s time to go... all the MUSIIIC while i’ll be singing na na na na na... moving forward. moving for- ward. T RA C K it seems so obvious, there’s something up with us. i swear i feel it from across the room. so can i ask you this? not to be forward miss, Douglas Robb but i think i’d kill myself if i never knew... what do i have to do to LY R III C S get inside of you, to get inside of you? i love the way you move when i’m inside of you, when i’m inside of you. just ask and i will do any- thing you want me to. there is no limit to how far i will go, i’m sure Daniel Estrin i can pretend to be a gentleman, but before i begin i just have to know... for now i’ll play the game, and i’m waiting for your move, but MUSIIIC i’ve got to say that i never lose T R A C K i must make a choice, a tough decision. listen to my voice, or should i give in to temptation, admiration? one leads to myself, the other Douglas Robb someone else, just an empty shell, just an empty shell... it’s harder LY R III C S than it seems, when you’re told that all your hopes and dreams are yours to hold if you just give them what’s expected, something they can sell or put upon a shelf, but i am not for sale, i am not for Daniel Estrin sale... i hear a voice inside, it’s grown into a scream. i’m not the & Douglas Robb next of them, i am the first of me. ‘cause i can’t live the lie, i am MUSIIIC just what you see. i’m not the next of them, i am the first of me. if i can’t refuse the prize they offer, i am sure to lose and i will suffer. sell my soul to make a profit. all i have to do, is make believe it’s true, something i can’t do, something i can’t do... i am the first of me... so when the waiting’s done, and it’s time to face the truth, you know you’re good enough deep down inside of you. you’ve finally woken up if only just to prove you were born to lead the way and be the first of you... i have made a choice. one decision. listen to my voice and i will never fail, ‘cause i am not for sale, i am not for sale T R A C K i only wanted you to feel how i thought you deserved to feel - the way you always said you wanted to. you wanted all we have to be real and Douglas Robb every word we say to be true. still after all i gave, it’s not enough for you... well i can’t give anymore, so now i’m giving up ‘cause noth- LY R III C S ing’s ever good enough. the more i try to pour, the less i fill your cup, ’cause nothing’s ever good enough. i only wanted you to see that you could be who you wanted to be - and fill a lonely void inside of Daniel Estrin you. i gave you everything that you need, did what you always wanted MUSIIIC to do. still after all i’ve done, i can’t get through... i’ve wasted my time, go find someone else... T R A C K you seem to find the dark when everything is bright. you look for all that’s wrong instead of all that’s right. does it feel good to you to Douglas Robb rain on my parade? you never say a word unless it’s to complain. it’s LY R III C S driving me insane... if i were you, holding the world right in my hands, the first thing i’d do is thank the stars for all that i have. if Daniel Estrin i were you... look what surrounds you now, more than you’ve ever dreamed. have you forgotten just how hard it used to be? so what’s it & Douglas Robb going to take for you to realize it all can go away in one blink of an MUSIIIC eye? it happens all the time... if i were you, holding the world right in my hands, the first thing i’d do is thank the stars above, tell the ones i love that i do... if i were you... if i were you, holding the world right in my hands, the first thing i’d do is thank the stars above, for the ones i love, take a breath and enjoy the view, live the life that i’ve wanted to. if i were you... T R A C K wake up, our life is calling. we’re smoke, but not a fire. give us a sign that we’re alive... snap out of indecision. have we been hypno- Douglas Robb tized to think that everything’s alright? the clock is counting down, LY R III C S the seconds tick away... this is our time, without a doubt. time to ignite. we’re not going down... without a fight. this is our time, get Daniel Estrin up off the ground. take what is mine. we’re not going down... without & Douglas Robb a fight. let’s go, the curtain’s opened. get this show on the road. i want to feel my heart explode... no more procrastination dragging my MUSIIIC feet below. now i want everyone to know... we must pick up the pace. no time to play it safe, before you know it’s much too late... T R A C K don’t tell me that you are ready to change. don’t tell me from now it won’t be the same. it doesn’t matter ‘cause at the end of the day it Douglas Robb isn’t what you say, it’s what you do... what you say will be forgotten someday, but what you do will be remembered. empty promises always LY R III C S fade away. the ones you keep will last forever. don’t tell me you’ll make things better for us. don’t tell me that you’re someone I can Daniel Estrin trust. it doesn’t mean a thing to me just because it isn’t what you & Douglas Robb say, it’s what you do. your actions will speak louder than you... so MUSIIIC show me that you’ve really figured it out and show me everything that you are about. but if you can’t then you should just shut your mouth ‘cause i don’t care what you say or what you do. you can’t take back what you’ve put me through. your actions will speak louder than you... T R A C K i still remember the time when this all felt like a dream. so com- pletely out of reach... frustrating. we kept our nose to the grind, Douglas Robb to help the days turn into weeks, hoping time would heal the pain LY R III C S of waiting. now it seems so long ago... just look back on how far we’ve come. we made it somehow. look where we are now... all we’ve done our battle’s won. we made it somehow. look where we are now... i Daniel Estrin used to wonder if i would ever have the chance to be something more than what you see..
