Maybe I've been hurt
Maybe I've been saved for something worse
can't say
If you asked me now
what's in a crowd?
there's thousands of faces
with thousands of ways to be hurt for free
But this I know I always make the friends that never
stay
I always make the friends that never stay
Feelings can't be felt
I couldn't let the ground beneath me melt.
Not me
They spread things about
they twist things around
the mask is a screen till the whispers are so loud they
hurt
I tried to stay
That someone could of made up something so cruel
that someone could of poisoned that last mouthful of
that someone could of played with something untrue
that took such delight in the last breath of you
Couldn't bear to stay
Couldn't tear away
is that emotional
or reproachable
But this I know
I always make amends when it's too late
I always make amends when it's too late
Was there something I could of said
Something I did
Someone I could of called
Something I read
They spread things about
they twist things around
the mask is a screen till the whispers are so loud they
hurt
I tried to stay
That someone could of made up something so cruel
that someone could of poisoned that last mouthful of
that someone could of played with something untrue
Did you know what you said
Did you feel it with your heart
Do you think while your running
But you don't let it cloud you.
Do you know how it feels
To be not as smart
Try thinking on your feet
While it's crowding in around you.
But nothing is easy
I have too tell myself
Nobody's going to rip me off this time
Nobody is gift wrapped from prying eyes
Its not me that's going to lose it all this time
Do you feel it on your skin
As it tightens up
Don't see the point in running
But you can't sit still
Do you feel it in your blood
Did you press too hard
Can't see the point in living
But you made it this far.
But nothing is easy
I have too tell myself
Nobody's going to rip me off this time
Nobody is gift wrapped from prying eyes
Its not me that's going to lose it all this time
Is nothing sacred?
Its not the thought of all the time I wasted
God, does nothing touch you?
Just give me something of the love I've tasted.
Don't listen to the words
Because they're not your style
Don't see the point in calling
Cause it's been a long while.
Do you kiss her when you're through
Do you care that much
Can't see the point in talking
'Cause it's never helped that much
No, nothing is easy
I've got to realise
There's nothing that I won't do to hurt you
No, nothing is perfect in your eyes
It's not me that has to prove a thing this time.
Is nothing sacred?
It's not the thought of all the time I wasted
God, does nothing touch you?
Just give me something of the love I've tasted.
But nothing is easy
I have too tell myself
Nobody's going to hold my hand this time
Nobody is gift wrapped from prying eyes
Its not me that's going to lose a thing this time
Is nothing sacred?
Its not the thought of all the time I wasted
God, does nothing touch you?
Just give me something of the love I've tasted.
I'd give you it all if I could.
One hour on a Sunday
That's all we have
In the patience of Monday
It never goes so fast
And I wish, it was easy
I wish you only knew
I wish I could explain things
Instead of hurting you
It's never enough
It's never enough
It's only the broken edge of love
It's never the tide
A place in your mind
That's all
I don't want to leave you nothing
One hour on a Sunday
In the afternoon
An hour to be awkward
Embarrassed you
And I'm glad that you're happy
Your mother too
I wish there were two worlds
One with me and you
It's never enough
It's never enough
It's only the broken edge of love
It's never the tide
A place in your mind
That's all
I don't want to leave you nothing
It's never enough
I never regret the mistake I made
It's never enough
I never give up, it's the price I paid
That's all we have
It's never enough
It's never enough
It's only the broken edge of love
It's never the tide
A place in your mind
That's all
I don't want to leave you nothing
I don't want to leave you nothing
It's never enough
It's only the broken edge of love
I don't want to leave you nothing
Are we spiralling down
Hoping that heaven reaches down
Are we spiralling down,
There's something so heavy
Pushing me down
I fall over
I fall over
I've got nothing now
I fall into a place you've been to
But you pull me up somehow
Press my face in the ground
Maybe there's love at the feet of this crowd
Kick my head when it's down
Maybe the sense comes from hearing the sound
I fall over
I fall over
I've got nothing now
I fall into a place you've been to
But you pull me up somehow
Say it doesn't matter
Say its not important
Say that nothing changes
Just smile as you read the pages.
It's to late for me now
Its too late for heaven to hear my vows
Pull me close to your mouth
Taste the soil, spilling out.
I fall over
I fall over
I've got nothing now
I fall into a place you've been to
But you pull me up somehow
Say it doesn't matter
Say its not important
Say that nothing changes
Just smile as you read the pages
Say it doesn't matter
Say its not important
Say that nothing changes
Something Wrong
Do you think I'd say anything
Do you think I'd just come out and say what I feel
We've had some sticky moments
We've talked ourselves out now and everything's real
And each passing day
Is one day to much
You take it out twice on the people you touch
And each passing hour
Is time with no end
Is this the something we're unable to mend
Do you think I could sit here
And talk about the things that go on in my head
I've sorted things out now
Faced up to it over and over again
And why should I explain
If no-one else complains
Neurotic and boring
Reliable you
And how can I just run
When nothing can be done
I don't know myself now but I can hear
There's something wrong
In something you said
It's just a feeling this is not what I wanted
There's something cold In the way you touch me
It's just a feeling that you're better without me
I just need a minute
I just need to scrape all this filth off my hands
Has anything changed now
No, nothing is pure
There's just yellow and brown
But how am I sure
That you lost no more
Than family and friends over someone before
And anything now
Is pushing my luck
And you'll break this silence
This is why I'm alone tonight
This is why I've got no appetite
For fighting and biting.
For lying and sniping
For talking of one thing,
And doing another
Blaming each other
I never thought I'd sacrifice this much for you
I never meant to jeopardise my fun for you
Because you didn't want me
You never cried for me at all
You didn't love me
You were too far above me
Then you watched me take the fall
Here is why I now contemplate
Here is why I should celebrate
No more hurting and using.
The spitting and bruising
Breaking a promise,
Saying I'm sorry
Pretending to worry
I never thought I'd have to take this much from you
I wish I'd never used this precious time on you
Because you didn't want me
You never cried for me at all
You didn't love me
You were too far above me
How can you accept it's just the way
When everyday's the same old wash of grey
Everyday the air just tastes the same
And everywhere I look there's nothing new
Soaked through with the subtle shades of blue
And now you say you're happy here with me
How can you be?
Are you and me in this place forever?
Are you and me in this place forever?
Stuck in this hole together
Couldn't be the one who's never tried
To get a better grip on another life
To get another view from my front room
You say I've got ideas above my place
That I try to deny what is harder to face
I say I'm going in and I'm coming through
So why not you?
Are you and me in this place forever?
Are you and me in this place forever?
I'm out of faith
It's harder than the first time
I've seen a face
That's hollow on the inside
And it's not our aim
But we're all to blame
We'll never take that away
We'll never take it away
Can you mend hearts?
Can you fix lives?
Can you fill all the space
It's left me with inside?
Can you mend hearts?
Can you blunt knives?
Can you lose all the things
I wish I'd left behind?
Can you mend hearts?
I'm out of faith
And it won't return tomorrow
I've seen a place
So rotten through with sorrow
And they're not our tears
But we all share the fear
We'll never wipe them away
We'll never wipe them away
I wanna switch off you wanna switch on
(I wanna switch off you wanna switch on)
I want to be free you want to belong
(I want to be free you want to belong)
And everything clicks when I'm right and you're wrong
(I want to switch off you want to switch on)
And nothing makes sense when we're getting along
(I want to switch off you want to switch on)
It only feels good when I'm treating you bad
(It only feels good when I'm treating you bad)
You only feel happy when you're driving me mad
(You only feel happy when you're driving me mad)
It's always too much if it's more than we had
(You only feel happy when you're driving me mad)
It's always too much if it's more than we had
(It only feels good when I'm treating you bad)
And who says it won't last forever
And who says it won't stay together
And who says it's hopeless and twisted and loveless
It might be the perfect solution
I only take sides if the other one's you
(I only take sides if the other one's you)
You only make love when I'm not in the room
(You only make love when I'm not in the room)
And every damn day I get closer to you
The tougher things get the harder we chew
And every damn day I get closer to you
The tougher things get the harder we chew
And who says it won't last forever
And who says it won't stay together
And who says it's hopeless and twisted and loveless
It might be the perfect solution
It might be the perfect solution
(It might be the perfect solution)
It might be the perfect solution
And who says it won't last forever
And who says we won't stay together
(And who says)
And who says it's hopeless and twisted and loveless
It might be the perfect solution
(And who says)
And who says it won't last forever
And who says we won't stay together
(And who says)
And who says it's hopeless and twisted and loveless
It might be the perfect solution
And who says
And who says
Take a look behind
Everyone's so happy
Remember it's your ride
Everyone's so grateful to be here
Slowly all the way
Because fifty five is five too suspicious
And still they come to play
They're so needy when their ceiling's falling
Perfect little day
Everyone is smiling
A little trip away
You must believe it's so sweet to meet you
Form a little line
Every face is sober
No one fall behind
It's so easy when the party's over
And what does it cost you
Over, and over again
Nothing
To live from the sweetest revenge
Sickly sugar pink
Everyone is dried up
It's warmer than you think
A cooler place is left off the highway
And maybe if you've planned
All the things you'll do when the bill's paid
Before you pay The Man
Take a seat and try to see things my way
And what does it cost you
Over, and over again
Nothing
It's a fool's game
It's a rat race
Are you tempted
To be rented?
It's a clique fest
Lover undress
Are you stable?
Am I able?
Only you can press that button
Only you can press that button today
She say's "One more? Just what you are scared of?"
He says "What for? I still love you the same"
She say's "One more? Just what you are scared of?"
He says "What for? I still love you the same"
Can you face it
When you're wasted
Are you sober
Before it's over
Carbon dated
Over-rated
Carton flavoured
Little "Miss Behaviour"
Only you can press that button
Only you can press that button today
She say's "One more? Just what you are scared of?"
He says "What for? I still love you the same"
She say's "One more? Just what you are scared of?"
He says "What for? I still love you the same"
Passion's learning, feelings stronger by the day
Fashion's burning, in every movement you betray
But you tease me
Emotional breakdowns are causing me some serious doubts
'Cause I think that you're real and I know that you
feel
More than just a taste, more than just a face
But it's all a waste of time
Talking to you when you've made up your mind
And it's all a waste of time
Thinking it through
You don't know how to fight fair (fight fair)
The passion's failing
It's all a different game today
Dig your nails in, when you know you're right
I won't sleep tonight
Non-stop physical torture, must be a joy-ride compared
to this
Screaming at the wall again, pulling out my hair again
Shouting at the air again
But it's all a waste of time
Talking to you when you've made up your mind
And it's all a waste of time
Thinking it through
You don't know how to fight fair
Crackdown, falling out
I know there's nothing left to share
With your cracked up little smile
On some pretence that you care
Well maybe you do but there's no getting through now
What in the world do you want me to do?
'Cause your motor's broken but your mouth still opens
And I can't get a look in at all
But it's all a waste of time
Talking to you when you've made up your mind
And it's all a waste of time
Thinking it through
You don't know how to fight fair
And it's all a waste of time
Talking to you when you've made up your mind
And it's all a waste of time
Thinking it through
What are you going to do
What are you going to say
Nothing can bring her back to you
No one can make her stay with you
How are you going to live
With nobody on their knees
Hanging on every word you say
Nothing but you to fill their day
She doesn't want you
(Why don't you see it)
She doesn't want you
(Just don't believe it)
She doesn't need you
(Why don't you see it)
She doesn't need you
(Just don't believe it)
She doesn't need you
Didn't you have enough
Didn't she give it all
No one deserves to live like that
Getting their way to hell and back
She doesn't want you
(Why don't you see it)
She doesn't want you
(Just don't believe it)
She doesn't need you
(Why don't you see it)
She doesn't need you
(Just don't believe it)
Only time will
Be the judge of
She doesn't want you
She doesn't want you
She doesn't need you
(Why don't you see it)
She doesn't need you
(Just don't believe it)
(Why don't you see it)
(Just don't believe it)
She doesn't want you
There's something wrong in your face
There's too many ghosts in this place
You let them through this embrace
Like I've never been here
I just can't stay here
It isn't my place here
You're waiting for someone
Am I better than no one?
I just can't stay here
It isn't my place here
You're waiting for someone
Am I better than no one?
There's something purer than fear
The strength of the hate that was here
If I keep you safe from your tears
It still won't be enough
I just can't stay here
It isn't my place here
You're waiting for someone
Trust You
They wait for you with open arms
They testify your charms
And lovers understand
The future that you've planned
But all the people
You took advantage of
[They were less than nothing to you]
And all the faces
That tried to give you love
I was just beginning to trust you
But you let me down again
And it has to be said
That you're cruel in the head
And you're spiteful
I was just beginning to like you
Sometimes pleasure is the key
That unlocks honesty
An openness of mind
That opens doors for me
But all the stories that you were making up
[They were only part of the lie]
And all the favours that you were using up
I was just beginning to trust you
But you let me down again
And it has to be said
That you're cruel in the head
And you're spiteful
I was just beginning to like you
I was just beginning to trust you it seems
At the point that you needed to un-pick the seams
Of the life around you
When love surrounds you
And now it's too late
Why do you hate so much?
And all the people you took advantage of
[They were less than nothing to you]
And all the faces
Everyone says it's all in my head
The chattering freak that bores me to sleep from
beneath the floor
It's nothing more
And I'd have to resign
It's just noise in my mind
Everyone agrees I should really be pleased
Couplets in the mind are creatively perfect for rhyme
I'd of course agree
They've yet to imply
That I'm losing my mind
I'm in my own world
You're outside
It feels so imperfect
I wonder why
Your world
Isn't mine
It feels so peculiar
To be alive
Everyone thinks it quirky and sweet
An image I'll compare when sedated and tied to a chair
I'll get the finest care
But I'd have to concede
That it's more than I need right now
I'm in my own world
You're outside
It feels so imperfect
I wonder why
Your world
Isn't mine
It feels so peculiar
To be alive
And I'd have to confess
That I'm not at my best
Right now
I'm in my own world
You're outside
It feels so imperfect
I wonder why
Your world
Isn't mine
It feels so peculiar
I'm falling again,
But I don't have the courage
And you never know
I'm wasted again
Keep it locked in my own head
Here it goes again
I don't want to go through this
Without you
I'm losing my grip
Need you there to remind me
The friends I used to keep
I'm nothing again
Need you there to define me
Before I go to sleep
I don't want to go through this
Without you
I don't want to go through this
Without you
I don't want to go through this
Without you
I don't want to go through this
Without you
Without You
I've done nothing wrong
I've am not that strong
I've done nothing wrong to you
Only the weak defend me
Only the weak pretend that
You didn't waste all that time
You just leave forever
You couldn't say you had it all
You want only better
I tried makin sense
I got no defense
I lost all pretence for you
And only the loved believe me
And only the pure can see that
You didn't waste all that time
You just leave forever
You couldn't say you had it all
You want only better
You, what you say
Looks behind the day
And you, what you say
Just love me and away (?)
You didn't waste all that time
You just leave forever
You couldn't say you had it all
You want only better
You didn't waste all that time
You just leave forever
You couldn't say you had it all
Only the weak pretend that
And only the loved believe me
And only the pure can see that
You didn't waste all that time
You just leave me ever
You couldn't say you had it all
(And you can't go back again)
All the lines you wrote
All the words you spoke are here
It helps
Every part of her
Every drop of every tear
She smiles:
This is what you wanted
This is what you'd pray for every day
This is what you wanted
This is what you needed them to say
And you're just so tired
But his life's just getting in the way
This is what you wanted
And there's nothing else to do today
(And you can't go back again)
You can't get out of bed
There's nothing left to break the fall
It's too long
You can't forget the sound
They switch to black and white and draw
What's gone
(repeat chorus)
(And you can't go back...)
And now you have to go back home (back home)
To-to-to face the world alone (back home)
And now you have to go back home (back home)
To-to-to face the world alone
God only knows
How you sleep at night
God only knows
How you face the light
(repeat chorus)
(And you can't go back...)
This is what you wanted
This is what you'd pray for every day
This is what you wanted
This is what you needed them to say
God only knows
How you sleep at night
God only knows
How you face the light
God only knows (and now you have to go back home)
How you sleep at night (to face the world alone)
God only knows (and now you have to go back home)
Is this the first time
You've been alone
Pull your heart out
All the names that hurt the most
I was like you
I guess you know
I know you'll get there
I didn't win but I was close
The world's a big place
Don't be alone
The world's a big place
Don't be alone
All you missing me
Is what you gave to me
All that nothing
You gave me hope from every sight
The world's a big place
Don't be alone
Is not a good place
To be alone
The world's a big place
If you wanted to get things over and done with
That's alright
If you think that it's washed up, rinsed out and spun
with
Well, not quite
If you feel you've done enough
If you feel you've done enough
It's enough
That's the game
It's the rules that stop us going insane
It's the smile
It's the race
It's the notches that we carve on our face
But did I tell you that?
Nothing matters but the momentary touch of your hand
Nothing matters but the times you do as much as you can
Nothing matters but the softness of your skin
And you're really not aware of the trouble that we're
If you wanted to try things, whisper it dryly
And I might
Now, if you think that I'm different, just ever so
slightly
Then you're right
If you think you've said enough
If you think you've said enough
It's enough
That's the game
It's the reason that we lost when we played
It's the sleep
That I lose
It's a lifetime spent avoiding the news
But did I tell you that?
Nothing matters but the momentary touch of your hand
Nothing matters but the times you do as much as you can
Nothing matters but the softness of your skin
And you're really not aware of the trouble that we're
It's enough
That's the game
It's the rules that stop us going insane
It's the smile
It's the race
It's the notches that we carve on our face
That's the game
It's the reason that we lost when we played
It's the sleep
That I lose
It's a lifetime spent avoiding the news
And you're really not aware of the trouble that we're
No, you're really not aware of the trouble that we're
I never liked the hand you dealt me
Until I felt the ice inside you melt for me
The purest Feelings ever felt
The purest feelings ever felt
Just close your eyes my dear
and listen to the rain
Just hope tomorrow comes
And takes away the pain
You feel like new
You always do
I’ve stood outside your closing door
But I'll never stand there any more
The purest people ever made
The purest plans that were ever laid
So don't make me crawl
Because it's far enough to fall
And the devil takes his time
Eventually you're mine
So don't make me crawl
Because it's far enough to fall
And the nights are closing in
Won't you let the fun begin
Nothing ever seems to hurt
When you're used to scratching in the dirt
But now my fears are always close
My darkest thoughts are so exposed
Just turn the lights off dear
And don't forget to pray
Just hope tomorrow comes
And everything's the same
It always is
It always is
So don't make me crawl
Because it's far enough to fall
And the devil takes his time
Eventually you're mine
So don't make me crawl
Because it's far enough to fall
And the nights are closing in
I could never fall for you
But the tension makes the air so blue
I would never have the time
To watch you every day and night but,
Maybe if I let myself
Come down from this dusty shelf
You're messing with my head again
Got me seeing red again, so
Take me to the place you hide
Where the truth belongs outside
Tell me all I need to hear
All you want and all you fear
Take me to the place you love
Where we fit like heavens glove
Take the pictures off the wall
And make me feel there's nothing more
Though I couldn't ask of you,
Something I could never do
Thought I couldn't ever need
Someone that would make me plead so
Wish that I could pace myself
Instead I could erase myself
A conscience in a big glass jar
I never thought I'd get this far, so
Take me to the place you hide
Where the truth belongs outside
Tell me all I need to hear
All you want and all you fear
Take me to the place you love
Where we fit like heavens glove
Take the pictures off the wall
And make me feel there's nothing more
Do you regret the times you've prayed?
It's not the things you took
But the things that you've thrown away
Still, I knew it all
Take me to the place you hide
Where the truth belongs outside
Tell me all I need to hear
All you want and all you fear
Take me to the place you love
Where we fit like heavens glove
Take the pictures off the wall
The clouds are rolling in
Like a barrier of sin
The colour of the sky
Spells the end for you and I
And we're not prepared
What happens to us if we don't get there
And we're not prepared
What happens to us if we don't get there
Waiting for the rain
Will it cleanse me of the pain
Purging all the lies
That finished you and I
No, I'm not prepared
What happens to us if we don't get there
No I'm not prepared
What happens to us if we don't get there
And I'm feeling tired
And I'm looking slow
And I feel so cheated
But there's nowhere left to go
Do what you feel, not what you say.
And we're not prepared
What happens to us if we don't get there
And we're not prepared
What happens to us if we don't get there
You've got it good
You're cruel to everyone
You get their feelings
And you shake them 'til you're all alone
You had the time
You had the motive now
Pretend it hurts
and they run to you from miles around
Dressed to kill
By the hands that never will
Looks appeal
To what the feelings don't reveal.
And I can't penetrate the lies
But the damage you do
Is written across your eyes
So don't say you love me
And I can't delegate the blame
But it all comes out
Sounding just the same.
So don't try to touch me.
You turn them on
You switch it off again
A stream of lovers hanging
Rotting at your door again.
You pull the strings
You've had them dance for you.
You build them up
'til they think they've got a bone to chew.
You steal to live
From the hands that never give
Look within
Through the doors that don't cave in.
And I can't penetrate the lies
But the damage you do
Is written across your eyes
So don't say you love me
And I can't delegate the blame
But it all comes out
Sounding just the same.
So don't try to touch me.
The words you said just broke in two
You steal to live
From the hands that never give
Look within
Through the doors that don't cave in.
And I can't penetrate the lies
But the damage you do
Is written across your eyes
So don't say you love me
And I can't delegate the blame
But it all comes out
Sounding just the same.
So don't try to touch me.
The words you said just broke in two
And I can't penetrate the lies
But the damage you do
Is written across your eyes (is it somehow rewarding)
So don't say you love me (or some kind of warning?)
And I can't delegate the blame
But it all comes out
Sounding just the same.
So don't try to touch me. (is it somehow rewarding)
So don't try to touch me. (or some kind of warning?)
So don't try to touch me. (is it somehow rewarding)
I'm not ashamed
I'm not a critic
I'll never look up how the hell you did it
I'm not to blame
This isn't physics
We can't be lovers just because you said it
Every day is just the same
Watching as you play your game
And I just can't beat you
Can't you see we've reached the bitter end
Can't you see there's not much left to mend
Can't you see two lights collide
Talk the talk as you decide
Can't you see we've reached the bitter end
We're not the same
You're on a mission
You always beat me down into submission
I'm changing lanes
You're in the mirror
You've only got your feelings to consider
Every day you wind it up
Push me and you'll come unstuck
But it just starts over
Can't you see we've reached the bitter end
Can't you see there's not much left to mend
Can't you see two lights collide
Talk the talk as you decide
Can't you see we've reached the bitter end
There's a hole in your heart where
Something good must've been there
You need someone just like me
Only colder and empty
Every day is just the same
Watching as you play your game
And I just can't beat you
Can't you see we've reached the bitter end
Can't you see there's not much left to mend
Can't you see two lights collide
Talk the talk as you decide
Can't you see we've reached the bitter end
(Can't you see we've reached the bitter end)
Can't you see we've reached the bitter end
(Can't you see we've reached the bitter end)
Can't you see there's not much left to mend
(Can't you see we've reached the bitter end)
Can't you see two lights collide
(Can't you see we've reached the bitter end)
Talk the talk as you decide
Can't you see we've reached the bitter end
Here you are pushing twenty one
And you've got nothing left to do
Say the sun shines last on you
You're popping pills to make it true
But don't leave here with my advice
As if it's right to listen to
Because I could never live up to this
I couldn't stand for this
I couldn't give respect to you
What do you get from me, this much I'll
Never see
What do you get for being here
Signed sealed sympathy
Here we are talking so sincerly
Like a lie could break us two
I could never lie to forgive eyes
But I can lie so well to you
Friends can mean such different things
But friends have never been like this
Because I know that it's a different thing
That only pain could bring and it's a pain that starts
with you
What do you get from me, this much I'll
Never see
What do you get for being here
Signed sealed sympathy
This is the way, this is the price
No one ever makes it taking loseres advice
This is the point that can't be refused
Sympathy is something that can never be used
Here you are pushing twenty two
And there's a world that's closing fast
You never had the time to
Sit this long
To find that you belong
And now that time has passed
What do you get from me, this much I'll
Never see
What do you get for being here
I learn about life through your life
I learn about touch through your hands
I learn about love through your heart
I learn to be kind where I can
But the window's still broken
It's starting to freeze
And the only thing I ever wanted
Is scattered in the breeze
I learn about strength through your strength
I learn about hope in your eyes
I learn about taste through your lips
I learn about trust through your lies
But the cuts are still open
They're starting to bleed
It's the only thing I ever wanted
The only thing I need
Can you teach me to feel it?
I'll take it step by step so I never miss a thing
Make me feel it
I'll get inside your head till you live inside me
Teach me to feel it
I'll take it step by step so I never miss a thing
Make me feel it
I'll get inside your head till you live inside me
I learn about life everlasting
I learn to contain your surprise
I learn about faith by believing
I learn about lust when it dies
And you're all I ever cared for
Through all that I've done
And the only thing that's not sewn up
Are the lessons left undone
I, I needed to see how far you would take me
Cause any further than this is a place I would rather
miss
Had to move on
Almost trusted you with my love
Had to make sense of all your interest
It will only take one thing
This time to realise your state of mind
Cause I can be used beaten and bruised
To justify your state of mind
But I won't be fooled - this time
I was the seed that grew from your treachery
And I was the taste that opened up the mouth of your
mistake
It will only take one thing this time
To realise your state of mind
Cause I can be used beaten and bruised
To justify your state of mind
But I won't be fooled - this time
From ordinary words and ordinary days
Something impossible came
Made you a liar to feed a desire
To break my heart again
It will only take one thing
This time to realise your state of mind
Cause I can be used beaten and bruised
To justify your state of mind
I thought I'd beaten you off once
I thought I was out of this trap once
I said I'd never be like this
I said I'd never stop wishing I was somewhere else
Someone to be
Not myself
To much of you in me
Somewhere else with someone new
Killing time but not with you
I'll never slice through like a sharp knife
Could have had money and a good life
Now I suffocate in my dreams
Sat in the back with the cold,cold vision that there's
someone else
Someone to be
Not myself
To much of you in me
Somewhere else with someone new
Killing time but not with you
Someone to believe in
Somewhere I could be tonight
But dreams are not that kind
The consequences hide
I never took the chance with a clean break
The chance that you get but you don't take
Far too weak to be like that
Far to stupid to be thinking that there's somewhere
else
Someone to be
Not myself
To much of you in me
Somewhere else with someone new
Killing time but not with you
Someone to believe in
Somewhere I could be tonight
But dreams are not that kind
The consequences hide
Somewhere else, Someone to be
Not myself to much of you in me
Somewhere else with someone new
Killing time but not with you
Someone to believe in
Somewhere I could be tonight
But dreams are not that kind
I'm just somebody who's got under your skin
Bet you never felt like that
I pushed in my knife
And managed to miss
But it never happened like that
You need somebody
With feelings that can't get inside your head
You need impatience
The weight of the world in someone else's hands.
I'll give you relief
I'll shake your belief
You'll settle for any part of me
Because I'm your self healing lie
Don't need a reason to watch you die
I'm just a body that's dead inside.
A self healing lie
Don't need a reason to watch you die
I'm just a body that's dead inside.
Untied belief
And feeling small
Inside it seems like nothing at all.
I'll give you relief
I'll shake your belief
You'll settle for any part of me
Because I'm your self healing lie
Don't need a reason to watch you die
I'm just a body that's dead inside.
A self healing lie
Don't need a reason to watch you die
Pull me 'round
And tell me that you'll never let me drown
Touch me slow
Like your fingertips might never let me go
But you know
That Im caught between the magic that you gave me
And the fear that you might leave leave
Because it scares me
Stop this war
I wish we could leave things at the door
These feelings dont wash away
I wish there was more to me
More to say
But you know
That I'm caught in between the magic that you gave me
And the fear that you might leave
because it scares me
That you could break my heart again so easily
Dont let us fall apart
Because it scares me
That you could break my heart again so easily
Dont let us fall apart
Run me through
Then pick me up and tell me what to do
cut me then run away
I wish that there was more to this
Flesh to kiss
How can you do this every day?
They had their chance and threw it away
There’s better lives a lot like yours
In open arms not closing doors
You give it away
You give it away
You give it away
What do they prove by hanging on?
What do we lose if they were gone?
Why does it mean so much to you?
You should be proud of what you do
You give it away
You cant save everyone
You can’t set everybody free
You can’t just change the world
(But you try)
It’s good enough for me
You cant save everyone
You can’t set everybody free
You can’t just change the world
(But you try)
It’s good enough for me
I could watch them fade away
They were the victims yesterday
You never think like that, I know
It’s why I’ll never let you go
You give it away
You cant save everyone (You give it away)
You can’t set everybody free
You can’t just change the world
(But you try)
It’s good enough for me
You cant save everyone
You can’t set everybody free
You can’t just change the world
(But you try)
It’s good enough for me
Let them go it’s been too long
Let them go it’s been too long
Let them go it’s been too long
Let them go it’s been too long
You cant save everyone
You can’t set everybody free
You can’t just change the world
(But you try)
This is my space
No one can ever get in here
This is my place
No one can ever hurt me
Standing at the foot of your bed
Counting the holes in your head
Waiting for the breathing to fall
Tracing the cracks in the wall
You don't know I'm there
You'll never know I care
But who's going to keep you safe
When your window is open
Reach out and I'll be there
Whatever happens to you
You're safe with me
Whatever hurting you do
It won't hurt me
Whatever choices you've made
To seal your fate
You've made them much too late
Watching from the edge of this tomb
That crushes your breath with its fumes
Silence like the beat of your heart
Dragging you into the dark
You don't know I'm there
You'll never know I care
But who's going to watch you sleep
when the latches are broken
Reach out and I'll be there
Whatever happens to you
You're safe with me
Whatever hurting you do
It won't hurt me
Whatever choices you've made
To seal your fate
You've made them much too late
This is my space
No one can ever get in here
This is my place
No one can ever hurt me
This is my space
No one can ever get in here
This is my place
No one can ever hurt me
You don't know I'm there
You'll never know I care
But who's going to pick you up
When your body is broken
Breath out and I'll be there
Whatever happens to you
You're safe with me
What ever hurting you do
It won't hurt me
Whatever choices you've made
To seal your fate
You've made them much too late
Whatever happens to you
You're safe with me
Whatever hurting you do
It won't hurt me
Whatever choices you've made
To seal your fate
You've made them much too late
This is my space
No one can ever get in here
This is my place
I thought I knew
Something more about you than you let through
I thought I saw
Something close to kindness
But that was all
Oh, it's so ironic
You've got the good book your name's still on it
Oh, it's so ironic
That you've got a room with a view
How wrong it feels
Watching your delight as they grease the wheels
My patience' thin
You're tearing off strips off another skin
Oh, it's so ironic
You've got the good book your name's still on it
Oh, it's so ironic
That you've got a room with a view
So what becomes of a friend
That no one wants to defend?
I thought I knew
Something more about than you let through
I thought I saw
Something close to kindness
But that was all
Oh, it's so ironic
You've got the good book your name's still on it
Oh, it's so ironic
That you've got a room with a view
How wrong it feels
The things you never saw
They didn't hurt you
I loved you once before
I never lied to you
And you're biting back at me
And I'm sick enough to see
That it won't be you that breaks it
Because you'll never sit and take it
Retaliation
For all the voices in your head
Was I mistaken?
In all the things I never said
Retaliation
For all the times I never bled
The things I've taken
To cure the poison
Brush the pain aside
It didn't happen
Calm the voice inside
I never got to you
And you're writing on your skin
That "the world is caving in"
But it won't be you that makes it
Because you never tried to fake it
Retaliation
For all the voices in your head
Was I mistaken?
In all the things I never said
Retaliation
For all the times I never bled
The things I've taken
To cure the poison
For all the bullets in your head
For all the things that you regret
For the lives you've never led
Did I destroy them?
Retaliation
For all the voices in your head
Was I mistaken?
In all the things I never said
Retaliation
For all the times I never bled
The things I've taken
To cure the poison
The things I've taken
You're just revisiting the truth
You're making changes to the memories of your youth
So take the day for all it has
You're not the first to cry, though you might just be the
last
And you'll rest in pieces
As you watch them go
And you'll rest in pieces
And they'll never know
You're just a shell and nothing more
You're just the shadow passing through a closing door
You'll never live to make it right
So hold your secrets in; don't lose them in the fight
(repeat chorus twice)
She's sorry
She never meant to hurt you
So sorry
She never meant to lead you on
It's an ordinary day
In an ordinary street in your town
It just isn't enough to keep her
She wants to
Take you to the city lights
Take you into paradise
Then drag you through the razorwire
Where your fear becomes desire
She's frozen
In stubborn little creases
Smashed open
In tiny little pieces
Such an undramatic place
Could be anywhere at all in your town
It just isn't enough to free her
She wants to
Take you to the city lights
Take you into paradise
Then drag you through the razorwire
Where your fear becomes desire
Such a sorry little place
It's a corner of the world to someone
It just isn't enough to please her
She wants to
Take you to the city lights
Take you into paradise
Then drag you through the razorwire
You're the breath in us too
You're the test of what's true
You're the one that stops them
You become the problem
It's just a different side
Of the many walls in your mind
The walls with secret panels
Built with knives and hammers
Petrified
By what you've done - and you've just begun
I hope you get your way
But what a price to pay
Petrified
By what you've done - and you've just begun
I hope you get your way
But what a price to pay
You're the pain I go through
To get to where I need to
You're the retribution
A sordid institution
It's just a different way
Of "saving face", as you say
A face that spares no malice
That drinks the poisoned chalice
(repeat chorus)
You take the falling rain
You make the sun that dried it
You shoulder all the blame
You've got the strength to hide it
Led emotion to the door
Remind me who you were before
(Petrified)
You are the wheels in motion
A wave of self-promotion
You beat a different drum
The rhythm's strong, but no fun
You are the vengeful hand
That tasted sweet, but so bland
You are my one protection
But you try to hard to get them
(repeat chorus)
You take the falling rain
You make the sun that dried it
You shoulder all the blame
You've got the strength to hide it
Nail emotion to the door
Remind me who you were before
(repeat chorus)
(Petrified)
What a price to pay
I can watch you from my room
Its easy and free
But I could lie in your footsteps
And you'd never see me.
Because people like you look right through me
And still don't see the ground.
But not today
I'll make you concentrate
And I don't need to make a sound
And I'll never be
Alone again.
I'll really make you see me differently.
I could wait in the shadows,
Not here on the street
I just want somebody to hear you
When I force you to speak.
And I'll never be
Alone again.
I'll really make you see me differently.
I could die and who would ever know?
I could wait but no-one ever shows
But I can make you look with this gun
So maybe I'm not like everyone
I could die and who would ever know?
I could wait but no-one ever shows
But I can make you look with this gun
So maybe I'm not like everyone
I'm just an ordinary man
With extraordinary hands
I don't want to hear your answers
I don't have the big plan
But focus on this
And realise
That you'd better be paying attention
When I look in your eyes
And I'll never be
Alone again.
I'll really make you see me differently.
I could die and who would ever know?
I could wait but no-one ever shows
But I can make you look with this gun
So maybe I'm not like everyone
I could die and who would ever know?
I could wait but no-one ever shows
But I can make you look with this gun
So maybe I'm not like everyone
I can see how we came together
And I can see how we’ll blow apart
I still know how to make you happy
I just don’t know why I break your heart
I cant say we’re alright
It’s just some days we can’t fight
I need you here
Let’s open up the ground and disappear
Do we run if the road goes nowhere?
Do we push if there’s no way out?
Should we breathe if our minds are lifeless?
Do we care how it all turns out?
I cant say we’re wiped out
There’s just no time to find out
I need you here
Let’s open up the ground and disappear
We can’t stop now
We don’t know how any more
It’s all or nothing and now’s the time
There’s too much that’s yours and mine
If you say it right
Say, "There's no place like home"
You'll be back there alone
In your room
(If you say it right)
I'm walking a line
I just want to say that you've been on my mind
We don't talk all the time
Still, I don't need to hear that it's all been a lie
I hope relief's delayed
I wish I knew the reason why she stayed
He made you so afraid
I just know that nothing could burn you out
When you say goodnight
But you don't want to sleep
'Cause the anger's too deep
If you say it right
Say, "There's no place like home"
And you'll be back there alone
In your room
You're too young to go
I'm too old to hear all the things that you know
You're too young to see
But you're too old and wise for the father in me
I know you feel betrayed
I wish I knew the reasons why she stayed
He made you so afraid
I just know that nothing could hurt you now
(repeat chorus)
When you say goodnight (when you say goodnight)
But you don't want to sleep
'Cause the anger's too deep
If you say it right (if you say it right)
Say, "There's no place like home"
And you'll be back there alone
In your room
I wish you could be brave enough to
Get into the mind of those who
Are capable of doing that to
Someone who will always love you
You escape into a world of blackness
To try and justify the hint of madness
To try and justify the hint of madness
To try and justify a world of blackness
Do you start when the kid's awake
Or do you lie and give them all a break?
Are you there because she asked you once to?
You'll regret it 'cause the money came through
It's all gonna change one day
It's all gonna change one day
It's all gonna change one day
It's all gonna change one day
From the moment that I heard you calling
To the second that I heard this morning
From the moment that you passed away
The only church you had was far away, and
We'll be there for you to throw the lifeline
We'll be there for you to see in the sunshine
Move slowly for your brother's sake
I can feel the pain in you
Pulling me through
I can feel the hand within
Casting me in
These things I've known
But then I'm not alone
I can take the days like a fool
When nothing seems too cruel
Ripping me apart
Scraping down my heart
Now it seems so clear
Nothing's breathing here
It's such a price my dear
Take me home for one last time and stop the fear
Because it's too long now to leave
I'm too much in love to breathe
When every day you make me go
to hell and back with you
But I'm not going to crack - yet.
It's such a thing to prove
When you're crushing every move.
Its such a thing to lose
Like a needle in a bruise
But I can't be wrong
The dangers never gone.
Now it seems so clear
Nothing's breathing here
Its such a price my dear
Take me home for one last time and stop the fear
Because it's too long now to leave
I'm too much in love to breathe
When every day you make me go
to hell and back with you
But I'm not going to crack.
It's too long now to leave
I'm too much in love to breathe
When every day you make me go
to hell and back with you
I found a picture of you
Down beside the bedroom wall
An image so real
Reminding me of what's in store
And it's hard to hold
The surface of the glass so cold
Without it falling
Without recalling
My saddest day
My saddest day
With you
You didn't speak of death
With all the strength that you had left
You just pulled me near
To prove to me your deepest fear
It wasn't hard to listen
As the surface of your skin glistened
That day of all days
In that way of all ways
My saddest day
My saddest day
You could be free
You could be free
You never tire of reminding me
You could be free
You've spent some time on your own
You're used to living alone
In all the space that you find for me
You've spent some time on your own
It's always the same
You're just no good at the game
It's always the same
You can't leave us broken
(My hands are tied, so tell me what we do)
All these wounds you've opened
(It hurts inside; it's not the same for you)
You can't freeze that moment
(My hands are tied, so tell me what we do)
Break this home; you own it
(It hurts inside; it's not the same for you)
Save your breath for someone
Hold that thought for someone else
You know that one thing never changes
Don't blame it on yourself
You can believe
If you wanted to leave
It lessens the pain received
You can believe
You think you're made out of stone
You say you're harder alone
That's not a face that you've shown to me
I'll think you'll suffer to know
It's always the same
You're just no good at the game
It's always the same
(repeat chorus)
Save your breath for someone
Hold that thought for someone else
You know that one thing never changes
Don't blame it on yourself
(repeat chorus)
(My hands are tied, so tell me what we do)
You can't leave us broken
(My hands are tied; there's nothing saved for you)
You can't leave us broken
(My hands are tied, so tell me what we do)
My Defender
Protect me once again
My Defender
Are all my fears the same
What changes between two people
When you're pulling their hands apart
What changes between two people
Happy times
Trusting minds
My Defender
Save me from myself
My Defender
The sickness and the wealth
What changes when words are spoken
Enough poison for both to share
What changes a promise broken
It's everywhere
Does no-one care?
Did you read my mind
Or did I fall in one outpouring
Never unkind
I stopped trusting
All for nothing
My Defender
Pure is just a word
My Defender
Cynical and hurt
What changes between the covers
What secrets are left unsaid
What happens when nothing changes?
Is everything spoiled
Is everything dead
What changes between the covers
What secrets are left unshaped
What happens when nothing changes?
Is everythin g spoiled
Is everything dead
What changes between two people
Happy times
I, I was always hiding
Never felt part of something
Always life was sliding
I, I was close to breaking
Self-obsessed and faking
You were never taking
But you don't know what it's like
Until you've lost it all
So don't tell me it's gone
Don't tell me we're wrong
We both make the same mistakes
Now we're throwing it all away
Don't tell me it's gone
Don't tell me we're wrong
We both make the same mistakes
But now we're throwing it all away
I, I got tired of breathing
Skin thick from healing
I got used to living
I, I lost hope and feeling
You stop from love from leaving
You stop things from breathing
But you don't know what it's like
Till you've lost it all
So don't tell me it's gone
Don't tell me we're wrong
We both make the same mistakes
And now we're throwing it all away
Don't tell me it's gone
Don't tell me we're wrong
We both make the same mistakes
But now we're throwing it all away
So don't tell me it's gone
Don't tell me we're wrong
We both make the same mistakes
And now we're throwing it all away
Don't tell me it's gone
Don't tell me we're wrong
We both make the same mistakes
And now we're throwing it all away
Don't tell me it's gone forever
Don't miss on our life together
Don't tell me it's part of life
To follow the lie
Stop, breathe, no one's been deceived
Go, leave, there's nothing to believe in anymore
Little Missile
Close your eyes and smile
There's no lying
As you detonate their dreams when you're safely outside
Little Missile
Where do you draw the line?
There's no crying
'Cause you're saving up all your tears for another life
Stop, breathe
You never asked to stay
They've seen it all before
A hundred times and more
Faces cold and grey
An invitation to somebody's final day
You said it wouldn't kill you
Terrify or thrill you
Did you mean to say
You didn't need the money anyway, anyway
Little Missile
Close your eyes and smile
There's no lying
As you detonate their dreams when you're safely outside
Little Missile
Where do you draw the line?
There's no crying
Cause you're saving up all your tears for another life
Stop, breathe
How you can reconcile
When you can be so rich
And feel so vile
It's a well-spent day
The celebration of another useful lay
You said he never tapes you
Violates or shapes you
Could you truly say
He never really touched you anyway, in any way
Little Missile
Close your eyes and smile
There's no lying
As you detonate their dreams when you're safely outside
Little Missile
Where do you draw the line?
There's no crying
'Cause you're saving up all your tears for another life
Stop
Breathe
No love letters
Makes life better
No one's been deceived
Little Missile
Close your eyes and smile
There's no lying
As you detonate their dreams when you're safely outside
Little Missile
Where do you draw the line?
There's no crying
Cause you're saving up all your tears for another life
Stop, breathe, no one's been deceived
Go, leave, there's nothing to believe in anymore
You said it too
It silences and freezes
And I'm with you
Two mis-shapen pieces
You say that you'll never know
What it's like to be neglected
And you'll never feel
How it hurts when you're rejected
They control us
They console us
Why do all these places hold us?
When they rush us
Let them crush us
Can't we be the ones to turn it around?
We dream of tearing them down?
They might refuse
But take some time to feed them
And let them choose
A perfect way to raise them
You say that nobody sleeps
Like you sleep because you're protected
You say that all things entwine
And that somehow we're connected
They control us
They console us
Why do all these places hold us?
When they rush us
Let them crush us
Can't we be the ones to turn it around?
We dream of tearing them down?
You and me
For a moment maybe
You and me
Can't we be the ones to turn it around?
They control us
They console us
Why do all these places hold us?
When they rush us
Let them crush us
Can't we be the ones to turn it around?
We dream of tearing them down?
They control us
They console us
Why do all these places hold us?
When they rush us
Let them crush us
Can't we be the ones to turn it around?
We dream of tearing them down?
You said that you'll never know
What it's like to be a victim
Just take a look at us now
Are you sure that you can trust them?
I couldn't deny
It's the only the wise that make it
It's only the fools that throw it away
And so I can't rely on
Most of my life I've been here
It should be my youth that's in the way
But did I tell you that
I love you
It's over
It's too late
Move over
The meaning's gone from everything
Is it so hard for you and me
We break their hearts
We clip their wings
And we say everything we try to do is wrong
Is it so hard for you and me
We play our part
It's so obscene
When we say everything worth living for is gone
It's only design
For something alive at work here
Something that only needs to tame
And I'll just resign
And you'll just take what you're given
And everything else gets thrown away
But did I tell you that
I hate you
I need you
Your worn out
And see through
And all those words get in the way
Is it so hard for you and me
We break their hearts
We clip their wings
And we say everything we try to do is wrong
Is it so hard for you and me
We play our part
It's so obscene
When we say everything worth living for is gone
You try so hard to prove me wrong
You can't do anything to change where we belong
You try so hard to make me see
But can't do anything to ruin you and me
Is it so hard for you and me
We break their hearts
We clip their wings
And we say everything we try to do is wrong
Is it so hard for you and me
We break their hearts
We clip their wings
And we say everything we try to do is wrong
(Your worn out)
Is it so hard for you and me
We play our part
It's so obscene
When we say everything worth living for is gone
(Your worn out and see through)
I love you
It's over
It's too late
Move over
I hate you
I need you
Your worn out
And see through
I love you
It's over
It's too late
Move over
I hate you
I need you
Your worn out
