Hand me down some photographs
Spread across the floor
A broken record spins in circles
She can't listen anymore
She's turned around a thousand times
She set that bridge a fire
But did you wanna listen
You took the world with you
So what is left
So what is left for me
I called you on the phone again
Just the other day
It sounds to me you found your place
And everything is great
But did you wanna listen
You took the world with you
So what is left
So what is left for me
I try
So hard to figure out
Why
No explanation keeps me waiting
Lets try
Because i know you won't forget
I know
Even if the story is over
But did you wanna listen
You took the world with you
So what is left for me
So what is left for me
But did you wanna listen
You took the world with you
So what is left
So what is left for me
What's left for me
Alone at last, together in a photograph
Our eyes are always open
Devoted to perfection through silence
What am I supposed to do?
Should I sit, wait for you?
Listen to me screaming more
This story is told only to those who have no mold
The truth can be bought or sold, but what are we buying?
Nothing but silence
What am I supposed to do?
Should I sit, wait for you?
Listen to me screaming more
Tell me now just what am I supposed to do?
Should I sit, wait for you?
Listen to me screaming more
Fold the corners, break the silence
Fold the corners, just for tonight
Fold the corners, break the silence
Fold the corners, just for tonight
Fold the corners, break the silence
When weakened, when will you rise?
What am I supposed to do?
Should I sit, wait for you?
Listen to me screaming more
Tell me now just what am I supposed to do?
Should I sit, wait for you?
Here I am beside myself again
I'm torn apart by words that you have said
And all in all, I know we're falling apart
Where did you run to so far away
And here we are to sing you a song
And there you are asleep against the window pane
Just like always
You said you like to hear the rain sometimes
And all I can do is tell you the truth
And oh, my eyes will tell you the same
And here we are to sing you a song
And there you are asleep again
And here we are to sing you a song
And there you are asleep again
Grasp my hands, together we feel we are one result
Grasp my hands, together we feel we are one result
And grasp my hands, together we feel we are one result
Grasp my hands, together we feel we are one result
And here we are to sing you a song
And there you are asleep again
And here we are to sing you a song
And there you are asleep again
Feel like a riddle today
Glamorous and I must say that you are barely okay
Meanwhile I fight for reason
Clamor in hand to defend this my only body stance
Take a look around
Everything in turn will come down
Don't depend on this broken promises
They won't hear a sound
Last chance to find the way out
Rearrange life till sundown, fears of a stick in the mud
I solved a riddle today
Glamorous and I must say that none of us are okay
Take a look around
Everything in turn will come down
Don't depend on this broken promises
They won't hear a sound
We plant the seed to grow the tree
But save room for the family
Evolution turns another ugly hand
Suddenly man cannot stand
Matchstick start the fire
Pinpoint the blame
And through the trees
I scream your name
Matchstick! Matchstick!
Matchstick! Matchstick starts!
Matchstick! Matchstick!
Matchstick! Matchstick starts a fire!
Take a look around
Everything in turn will come down
Don't depend on this broken promises
They won't hear a sound
They won't hear a sound
The storm is bad tonight,
So how could I awake without you here?
Your picture's on the wall.
You haven't called.
But I will wait for you.
To her own reflection,
She says, "I will hold on."
To her own reflection,
She says, "I will be strong."
The storm is letting up,
But it won't die.
If you weren't wrong, was I?
Your picture still remains,
But I wonder... are you still the same?
To her own reflection,
She says, "I will hold on."
To her own reflection,
She says, "I will be strong."
Am I losing you?
AM I LOSING YOU?
I've WAITED, I've WAITED till it's over;
It's over now...
I've WAITED, I've WAITED till it's over;
It's over now...
I've WAITED, I've WAITED till it's over;
It's over now...
I've WAITED, I've WAITED till it's over;
It's over now...
To her own reflection,
She says, "I will hold on."
To her own reflection,
She says, "I will be strong."
To her own reflection, (I'VE WAITED...)
She says, "I will hold on." (I'VE WAITED...)
To her own reflection, (I'VE WAITED...)
Human flesh...
Open earth...
Prepare your burial, burial, BURIAL!
PREPARE YOUR BURIAL, BURIAL, BURIAL!
THIS BODY COLD AND CONTAGIOUS.
THIS BODY COLD AND CONTAGIOUS.
THIS BODY COLD AND CONTAGIOUS.
THIS BODY COLD AND CONTAGIOUS.
THIS BODY COLD AND CONTAGIOUS.
THIS BODY COLD AND CONTAGIOUS.
THIS BODY COLD AND CONTAGIOUS.
Buried with your face down,
You scream without sound.
BROKEN BONES WON'T HEAL YOU!
Sympathy TURNS TO...
LAUGHTER!
(So prick your fingers and bleed, give the poison to me.)
LAUGHTER!
(So prick your fingers and bleed, give the poison to me.)
LAUGHTER!
(So prick your fingers and bleed, give the poison to me.)
LAUGHTER!
(So prick your fingers and bleed, give the poison to me!)
Unearthed hands of SOLITUDE,
All over me!
Torn apart by this cold self incision!
So let it bleed!
Prepare your...
Prepare your burial! (BEWARE!)
Prepare your burial! (BEWARE!)
Prepare...
PREPARE YOUR BURIAL, BURIAL, BURIAL!
PREPARE YOUR BURIAL, BURIAL, BURIAL!
THIS BODY COLD AND CONTAGIOUS.
THIS BODY COLD AND CONTAGIOUS.
THIS BODY COLD AND CONTAGIOUS.
Worms of the earth, rise in numbers
A silent night brings them upon us
Rising from the soil to torment the living
Torment the living
Gentlemen, our faith is wounded
And yes, we are wounded too
They've come out from the swamp
But we, we stand on both legs
They will roll over and over and over again
And another lonely pacifist lying in the sun
There is no ground control... MAYDAY!
Breathe not a word of this
Quiet, quiet confidence
The time has come to face this
We all must bear witness
The world will roll over and over and over again
And another lonely pacifist dying in the sun
I will not watch this
I will not watch this all come down
Careful boy, careful...
Absence of heart makes a boy, a man, a monster
Absence of heart makes a boy, a man, a monster
Absence of heart makes a boy, a man, a monster
I'm on my way back home.
I've lost my way,
I've gone astray,
I'm on way back down.
They'll let me in from the cold.
Cause I'm the new kid, like everybody.
Cause everybody lives again.
I'm in my new skin, safe in knowing
That one day we will meet again.
I'm sheltered here in my wings,
And I will not forget you're everything.
Cause in your heart is where I live.
And that's alright...
You are alive...
Cause I'm the new kid, like everybody.
Cause everybody lives again.
I'm in my new skin, safe in knowing
That one day we will meet again.
Said I'm alright...
And now...
Said I'm alright...
Cause I'm the new kid, like everybody.
Cause everybody lives again.
I'm in my new skin, safe in knowing
Slumber has erased me.
Comfort is only skin deep.
A dirty mirror reveals reason.
To digest, corrective medicine.
I burned up, I burned up...
Ablaze upon re-entry, slow down...
I woke up, I woke up...
Face down along the shoreline, paradise is mine.
Shadows, and living trees,
Reach out to embrace me.
This place, here, is where we don't exist.
He carries dead weight with his fist.
I burned up, I burned...
Ablaze upon re-entry, slow down...
I woke up, I woke up...
Face down along the shoreline, paradise is mine.
You can't take it with you, You can't take it with you.
Frame by frame we begin to change skeletons and robot brains.
She found a book thats writes itself, that plays it all upon a stage,
Over and over again, over and over again,
Below the earth lies a serpent
Fire and brimstone
Remove the backbone
Say hello to sunshine
Wake up, you're baptized
The temple is me
Something to believe in
Is something to be
The evidence is all we taste
Under the skin the heart is pumping
What brought you to this?
Meat once was useless
Focus on the fiction
Lose sight of the vision
The temple is me
Something to believe in
Is something to be
The evidence is all we taste
Man makes changes
Man wants everything!
Man makes changes
Man wants everything!
I'm sleeping to give my head a rest
I am so sick of these arguments
Alone, once again I'm on my own
Just need some time to myself or I'll explode
I know that this is all my fault
And one day I will get it right
But for now I sit here and remind myself
That everything will be okay
Your letter written on a napkin
Sits on my nightstand
And it reads:
This is...
This is the last time
That I will write to you
This is goodbye
I know that this is all my fault
And one day I will get it right
But for now I sit here and remind myself
Communications down
I float without
A light to lead me back
I'm lost again
They say silence is golden
Loneliness never shined like this
Diseased the leper sits
The leper is me
Fireflies illuminate your eyes
The moon will lead me back to earth again
Caught between the stars
A well lit drowning
Darkness mocks me with
A broken compass
So I swim in a sea
Of distress
Broken down, and helpless
The leper sits diseased
The leper is me
Fireflies illuminate your eyes
The moon will lead me back to earth again
Floating all alone
Floating all alone
Fireflies illuminate your eyes
The moon will lead me back to earth again
Fireflies illuminate your eyes
The moon will lead me back to earth again
Fireflies illuminate your eyes
The moon will lead me back to earth again
Fireflies illuminate your eyes
I'm not like them
But I can pretend
The sun is gone
But I have a light
The day is done
But I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb
Or maybe just happy
Think I'm just happy
Maybe I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy
My heart is broke
Can I have some glue
Lend me a hand
And mend it with you
We'll come around
And hang out on clouds
Then we'll come down
And have a hangover
Have a hangover
Skin the sun
Fall asleep
Wish away
The soul is cheap
Lesson learned
Wish me luck
Soothe the burn
Wake me up
I'm not like them
But I can pretend
The sun is gone
But I have a light
The day is done
But I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb
Maybe just happy
Maybe I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy
Maybe I'm just happy
Hate sin, not the sinner,
A mold of ugliness thrown into the fire.
Brother bleed brother,
What have you done my son with your desire?
I'll hold my breath, until the end.
A prayer for us to make it through.
I'll hold my breath...
Miles of conviction to carry the weight of all your own mistakes.
Open your eyes,
In the end of everything, everything dies.
And I'd die for you, and I'd die.
And I'd die for you, and I'd die.
Sifting seasons through the sand. (Time moves so slowly)
Spitting treason in your hand. (I won't hear it)
Sifting seasons through the sand. (Time moves so slowly)
Spitting treason in your hand. (I... I won't hear it)
I'll hold my breath, until the end
A prayer for us to make it through.
I'll hold my breath, I'll hold my breath,
I'm sorry, but red's my color now.
Guess you got to me somehow.
"This mistake has broken me"
she said. She said,
"Shut your mouth and take the blame,
and paint your face with the shame.
I know because I know."
Take these eyes and bury me,
So that I can't see your face,
And when you die, I won't cry.
I've been there before.
Flesh is warm, but I've grown cold.
State your claim into my veins,
And scrape my face in your hands,
And feed me to the wolves.
Take these eyes and bury me,
So that I can't see your face,
when you die, I can't cry.
I CAN'T JUSTIFY YOUR EYES, YOUR EYES!
JUSTIFY YOUR EYES, YOUR EYES!
JUSTIFY YOUR EYES, YOUR EYES!
JUSTIFY YOUR EYES!
Take these eyes and bury me,
So that I can't see your face,
And when you die, I can't cry.
I CAN'T CRY!
I CAN'T CRY!
I CAN'T CRY!
Woke up this morning without a face.
I've fooled myself again.
I've sold myself again.
Another wasted day counting shades of gray.
Another fool's attempt to fall from grace.
A casual line.
A sip of wine to sympathize
While you're laughing.
But on the inside
I've lost the insight that just might be the truth...
Old man loneliness is a son of a bitch!
Both hands bound, can't scratch the itch!
CUT OFF ALL LOOSE TIES, and bleed for days!
Who could stand veins with friends like these?
I pick my teeth out of the mud,
And sink the sun.
"What have you done?"
I cut the bandages,
Remove the oxygen.
"Hey man, what's with that stupid grin?"
I cut and bleed myself along.
A man alone can do no wrong.
Another wasted day counting shades of gray.
Another fool's attempt to fall from grace.
Old man loneliness is a son of a bitch!
Both hands bound, can't scratch the itch!
CUT OFF ALL LOOSE TIES, and bleed for days!
Who could stand veins with friends like these?
OLD MAN LONELINESS is a son of a bitch!
Both hands bound, can't scratch the itch!
CUT OFF ALL LOOSE TIES, and bleed for days!
Who could stand veins with friends like these?
Taste of sunSHINE!
DEVIL ON MY TOES!
(No sympathy for the Devil.)
(God gave him wings, God gave him wings.)
(No sympathy for the Devil.)
(God gave him wings, God gave him wings.)
"These hands; they've made for you..."
(No sympathy for the Devil.)
(God gave him wings, God gave him wings.)
"Your wings that stick to you..."
It's dirt beneath your fingertips.
It hurts too much to wait for it.
It's dirt beneath your fingertips.
It hurts too much to wait for it.
It's dirt beneath your fingertips.
It hurts too much to WAIT FOR THIS.
Old man loneliness is a son of a bitch!

Taste of sunshine!
DEVIL ON MY TIME!
The storm is bad tonight,
So how could I awake without you here?
Your picture's on the wall.
You haven't called.
But I will wait for you.
To her own reflection,
She says, "I will hold on."
To her own reflection,
She says, "I will be strong."
The storm is letting up,
But it won't die.
If you weren't wrong, was I?
Your picture still remains,
But I wonder... are you still the same?
To her own reflection,
She says, "I will hold on."
To her own reflection,
She says, "I will be strong."
Am I losing you?
AM I LOSING YOU?
I've WAITED, I've WAITED till it's over;
It's over now...
I've WAITED, I've WAITED till it's over;
It's over now...
I've WAITED, I've WAITED till it's over;
It's over now...
I've WAITED, I've WAITED till it's over;
It's over now...
To her own reflection,
She says, "I will hold on."
To her own reflection,
She says, "I will be strong."
To her own reflection, (I'VE WAITED...)
She says, "I will hold on." (I'VE WAITED...)
To her own reflection, (I'VE WAITED...)
Treacherous hold on me
With daggers for teeth
A pound of flesh for regret
Tied to marionette
Limp around my neck
Who knows which way to go?
Charcoal burnt sunrise
Sent by the river
To tell me lies (tell me lies)
Cold shades of sanity
Are bleeding over
I broke apart the disguise
The demon lives in the eyes, and
Underneath your breath
A softly spoken
Death
I hate that it tastes this way
Medicine gets so stale
A cut from a piece of mind
Then will you listen
I'm only me
"This man is using his mind as a weapon...
... And woe betide the creature who
Steps into his garden"
Let's see if I can't get it on me
Let's see if I can't get him all over my hands
"He's had another attack"
There's nothing bringing me back
Sailor says full mast
Following the sun
I hate that it tastes this way
Medicine gets so stale
A cut from a piece of mind
Then will you listen
I'm only me
A cut from a piece of mind
Then will you listen
A cut from a piece of mind
Then will you listen
Where are you? -
- (Where are you?)
Where are you? -
Everything I'm saying is coming out all wrong,
Please bear with me
I've got so much to say
Let me explain myself to you
Forgive me, forgive me not
I'm sorry for what it's worth, I know I'm wrong
Can't you see I'm still me
Are you listening?
Nothing I can say will make this right
Just give it time
Why can't I spit it out?
I need relief
Your sympathy
Forgive me, forgive me not
I'm sorry for what it's worth, I know I'm wrong
Can't you see I'm still me
Are you listening?
I'm sorry for what it's worth, I know I'm wrong
Can't you see I'm still me
Today is just like all the others
I'm not alright i've cried my last tears
I'm bleeding out my pain as you scream at me (Just Why?)
You've got me waiting by myself
I never wanted more than this
What will it take to get the truth
I'm on my knees
Another page of i'm sorry's addressed to me
Another story for the collection of memories folded neatly
The storm is back tonight
So how could i
Awake without you here
Your pictures on the wall you haven't called
But i'll wait for you
To her only friends who say things
I will hold on
To her only friends who say things
I will be strong
The storm is letting up
But it wont die
If you weren't wrong was i
You picture still remians
But i wonder
Are you still the same
To her only friends who say things
I will hold on
To her only friends who say things
I will be strong
Am i loosing you
Am i loosing you
I'm waiting
I've waited till it's over
It's over now
I'm waiting
I've waited till it's over
It's over now (i will hold on)
I'm waiting
I've waited till it's over
It's over now (i will remain)
To her only friends who say things
I will hold on
To her only friends who say things
I will be strong
To her only friends who say things (i'm waiting i've waited till it's over now)
Bite the tongue to live with what you've done!
It's so good, it's so good.
LIE TO MYSELF WHILE I LIE WITH MYSELF.
It's Monday and it's raining,
It's Sunday in the sun!
It's so good, but...
Would it be so bad
If you were to pretend that you were so happy?
Keep it to yourself;
Don't let the secret go.
If you were so willing, but...
Let's pray for this suicide,
And all these pictures falling down around me...
I've surrounded myself with all I have INSIDE.
Would I bite my tongue,
And live with what you've done?
Just continue sleeping?
Selfishly consumed with everything you've wrought.
There's nothing I can do, but...
Let's pray for this suicide,
And all these pictures falling down.
One wish full, step to the side.
And please just let me know...
Are you happy?
I'll decide.
These stories are so old,
How they match your eyes.
Are you happy?
I'll decide.
These stories are so old,
How they match your eyes.
Are you happy?
I'll decide.
These stories are so old,
How they match your eyes.
But...
LET'S PRAY FOR this suicide,
And all these pictures falling down.
ONE WISH FULL, step to the side.
Kiss the sun
In your eyes
Love unveiled
I can't deny
Be not warned
Watch it fall
Mesmerize...
Close your eyes and begin to breath
Something is coming over me
Lost to find, and a soul to keep
cause you love me...
Give this one
On bended knee
Price to pay
Please wait for me
A trial by fire
A setting Sun
A love I've won...
Close your eyes and begin to breath
Something is coming over me
Lost to find, and a soul to keep
Cause you love me...
Inside, I wait
Inside, I wait
Kiss the sun
In your eyes
Love unveiled
I can't deny
be not warned
Watch it fall
Mesmerize...
Close your eyes and begin to breath
Something is coming over me
Lost to find, and a soul to keep
Cause you love me...
Inside, I wait
Inside, I wait
Close your eyes and begin to breath
Something is coming over me
Lost to find, and a soul to keep
Cause you love me
you love me
you love me
She thinks she missed the train to mars.
She's out back counting stars.
She thinks she missed the train to mars.
She's out back counting stars.
She's not at work, she's not at school.
She's not in bed, i think i finally broke her.
I bring her home everything i want,
nothing that she needs.
i thought she'd be there holding daises,
she always waits for me.
She thinks she missed the train to mars.
She's out back counting stars.
I found her out back, sitting naked..
looking up and looking dead.
a crumpled yellow piece of paper.
seven nines and tens.
I thought she'd be there holding daisies,
she always waits for me
She thinks she missed the train to mars,
she's out back counting stars
I thought you'd be there holding daisies,
you always wait for me.
She thinks she missed the train to mars.
I climb the mountain top, I saw the bottom drop.
I cling to drift wood, I swim in the deep world.
Words unspoken, seem so foreign.
Have you heard this one?
The hair on the back of your neck stands.
Another way out, another way out...
The army ants have escaped.
The hair on the back of your neck stands up.
Ink runs into my cup, I sip epiphany.
Fang bite tarantula, taste of my symptoms.
Gasoline and a pistol, blood filling the bathtub.
Swollen eyelids, baffled by this.
Tell us what you see?
The hair on the back of your neck stands.
Another way out, another way out...
The army ants have escaped.
The hair on the back of your neck stands up.
Ink runs into my cup, I sip epiphany.
I've bit my lip for the last time.
Fog lifts up, for the blind.
Free of body, free of mind.
I'll build my mold up, rest inside
Ink spills on paper, paper spells my blood.
Ink spills on paper, paper spells my blood.
The hair on the back of your neck stands up.
Ink runs into my cup, I sip epiphany.
The army ants have escaped...
The hair on the back of your neck stands up.
Ink runs into my cup, I sip epiphany.
Ink spills on paper, paper spells my blood.
Feel the pain
(Corroded arteries exposed to cold skin)
Feeding me
(Diastolic curdled oxygen)
I look suspicious when I look
In the mirror
Swallow placebo and the
Mountain gets steeper
Stomach won't digest demons
One wound for every reason why
Pills are contagious
Prayers for ageless sight
Monsters religion
Bleed me through to midnight
Peeking red
(Another episode of playing pretend)
Medicine
(Cut the feed for one moment)
Release endorphins and then it's over
Hands of the shadows grope at dirty diseases
Somebody tell me why I should believe this
One more unknown condition
One wound for every reason why
Pills are contagious
Prayers for ageless sight
Monsters religion
Bleed me through to midnight
Pills are contagious (pills are contagious)
Prayers for ageless sight
Monsters religion (monsters religion)
One more, one more
Try as I may
Inside... this creature's still alive
Try as I may
Inside... this creature's still alive
Focus on the fire burning
Virus in me
Hopeless host hooked to a wire
Keeping me
Focused on the fire burning
Virus that is me... (a hopeless host)
Sickness, Sickness
Is crumbling me, born into
Disease stomach
Won't digest demons mother please
I beg. Just finish the stitch
All along the water's edge,
The ripples curl and bend,
As the moon bleeds.
"Satire's no match for a matter of fact." (That's blasphemy!)
There's got to be another way.
I wrote it down in blood:
"Never forget my love".
Faith as endearing AS THE OTHER SIDE!
Before nightfall, cast a broken shadow,
Much too tall. "Look, it's just me!"
Graveyard pulls apart the earth,
Revealing all the broken hearts!
I'm not the only one who bleeds.
I wrote it down in blood:
"Never forget my love".
Faith as endearing as the other side.
I'm on this freight train with creeping suspicion.
HELL TO PAY!
Glassy eyeballs feeling red.
Painful voices in your head.
And he walked to the stone to engrave
His claim of a thousand souls filled
With shame reaching to the highest
Notch at the top.
With the blood of his wisdom he began
To call on the names of
The vain and the week willed alike,
"I will have you."
Anoint you, wrap you in lies, to
Devour you all in the blink of an eye, in the presence
Of His Majesty.
The rise and fall of the hands that begat the
Writing on the wall, dripping with blood,
"Never forget my love".
It's criminal, more than you know,
The loss in your eye...
It's critical...
It's critical now,
The look in my eye...
I have damned myself
To hear this out
One more time around!
I have damned myself
To hear this out
One more time!
I wrote it down in blood:
"Never forget my love".
Faith as endearing as the other side.
I'm on this freight train with derailed suspicions.
"Meier may we be this way forever,
And tell me lover,
What will become of the others?"
Bones, skin, nails, and flesh.
On a bed of lack of passion.
A medieval consequence.
They worry you with all the talk of how you're not their kind.
Now I'm stealing her body
And taking it home.
There is always one more fall.
Maladjusted you must trust me darling.
Subsequently, you see, you deserve more than me.
They bury you while wearing garments
Of funeral fire.
Now I'm stealing her body
And taking it home.
There is always one more fall.
Now I'm stealing her body
And taking it home.
There is always one more fall.
This will hurt you.
It's killing me. (This is the salt in my side, this is the thorn in my eye)
This will hurt you.
It's killing me. (This is the salt in my side, this is the thorn in my eye)
This will hurt you.
It's killing me. (This is the salt in my side, this is the thorn in my eye)
This will hurt you,
And I will too, and I will...
BLOODLUST, BLOODLUST... for this girl.
BLOODLOSS, BLOODLOSS... for this boy.
BLOODLUST, BLOODLUST... for this girl.
BLOODLOSS, BLOODLOSS... for this boy.
This boy...
Another puncture wound,
And once again, FORGIVE OUR SINS!
Now I'm stealing her body
And taking it home.
There is always one more fall.
Now I'm stealing her body
And taking it home. (This is forever.)
Girl, you must think that I'm crazy
But we all know you's a cutie
and you're all like, "Nuh uh boys don't wanna get with me"
Girl, please
I can see right through those
fake colored contacts
Your eyes ain't blue, I bet that hair's held by glue
Hey shorty, why you playing games
These games were played, the rules were made,
You dropped these names and now you got nothing to say
[x2]
It's like an episode of cheaters
and I'm that dude with the gun
Hiding cameras in your bedroom
Girl, I know what you've done
I might be your baby's daddy
But that don't mean shit
When every dude on the block
Knows that you're a trick
Hey shorty, why you playing games
These games were played, the rules were made,
You dropped these names and now you got nothing to say
[x2]
Uh, I'm not a rockstar but I still tend to rock hard
You trying to play games tease and trying to keep me rock hard
Trying to make me slap you and see me in a cop car
Catch me speeding in stock cars expecting me to stop hard
You playing with the mind of the craziest kind
Telling me how much you love me when I know that you're lying
You must be snorting lines if you think that I'm crying
You manipulating backstabbing cold and kaniving
I went from last to first but this is first to last
I'm the major league playa you can kiss my ass, trick
(Drop it like it's...)
...Hot! Shake it like a salt shaker [x4]
Fuck [x4]
Once again your eyes
Make it hard to say goodbye
So I'll just keep driving
Where you wanna go
It doesn't really matter
As long as you are here with me
With me
With me
Whoooa
There's something in the air tonight
Something that makes me feel alive
And I said whoooa
What were the words that you said to me
That made me feel so special now
Once again your eyes
Make it hard to ask you why
So I sit here knuckles tight
Hands against the wheel
Your head against the glass
And you mean so much to me
To me
To me
Whoooa
There's something in the air tonight
Something that makes me feel alive
And I said whooa
What were the words that you said to me
That made me feel so special
Stay with me
Cigarettes in open air
Hand in hand
And I said stay with me
Cause every star that I see
Is brighter than the last
So stay with me
Cigarettes in open air
Hand in hand
And I said stay with me
Cause every star that I see
Is brighter than the last
So stay with me
Cigarettes in open air
Hand in hand
And I said stay with me
Cause every star that I see
Is brighter than the last
So stay with me
Cigarettes in open air
Hand in hand
And I said stay with me
Cause every star that I see
Is brighter than the last
I wish it didn't hurt, hurt like this
To say these things to you
I'll sacrifice one moment for one truth
If we get though tomorrow then we'll be fine
(Then we'll be fine)
We'll wait for
(We'll wait for)
Forever and see how close we get
It's just another day
One more chance to get this right
I'll sacrifice forever, please just for tonight
If we get though tomorrow then we'll be fine
(Then we'll be fine)
We'll wait for
(We'll wait for)
Forever and see how close we get, we get
(The worst is over for now)
Take a breath, now let it out
The worst is over for now
Take a breath, now let it out
Hand me downs and photographs,
Spread across the floor.
A broken record spins in circles,
She can't listen anymore.
She's turned around a thousand times,
She set that bridge afire!
But did you wanna listen?
You took the world with you!
So what is left,
So what is left for me?
I called you on the phone again,
Just the other day.
It sounds to me you found your place
And everything is great.
But did you wanna listen?
You took the world with you!
So what is left,
So what is left for me?
But did you wanna listen?
You took the world with you!
So what is left,
So what is left for me?
I TRY so hard to figure out WHY.
No explanation keeps me waiting.
Let's try! (LET'S TRY!)
Because I know you won't forget, I know. (I KNOW...)
Even if the story is over...
I KNOW...
It's over...
I KNOW...
It's over...
I KNOW...
But did you wanna listen?
You took the world with you.
So what is left,
So what is left for me?
WHAT'S LEFT FOR ME?
But did you wanna listen?
You took the world with you!
So what is left,
So what is left for me?
WHAT'S LEFT FOR ME?
But did you wanna listen? (FOR ME?)
You took the world with you! (WHAT'S LEFT FOR ME?)
So what is left,
So what is left for me? (FOR ME?)
I love you
I hope the words get through
You're my dream come true
Oh how I love you
I love you
I know it's cliche, too
But that's no big deal, cause it's real
I love you
Put your arms around me
Hold me tight
Everything will be alright
I love you
Although I sound confused
I'd stake everything on just how much
I love you
I love you
With all my doubts removed
I'd go anywhere, do anything, to prove how much
I love you
Put your arms around me
hold me tight
Everything will be alright
I love you
Feels like I have the flu
It's such a bad case, my body aches
I love you
I love you
I hope you want me too
I pray everyday, I'll hear you say
One devotion to an empty moment.
Can you stay tonight?
Silence broken with words unspoken.
Now she's on her knees
No more feeling so useless.
"Can I beg for one more?" she said.
Taking with arms wide open.
Longing for sleep again.
The air is clearing.
Again, we're breathing.
Water turns to wine.
The day is tired,
The night's inside her.
Now she is alive.
No more feeling so useless.
"Can I beg for one more?" she said.
Taking with arms wide open.
Longing for sleep again.
But now, I'm awake...
But now, I'm awake...
But now, I'm awake...
Keep breathing, to feel something.
Take my breath...
(Away!) I PRAY THE SILENCE WILL STOP AND TAKE MY BREATH AWAY!
(Away!) SHE PRAYS THE SILENCE WILL STOP AND TAKE HER BREATH AWAY!
(Away!) I PRAY THE SILENCE WILL STOP AND TAKE MY BREATH AWAY!
(Away!) SHE PRAYS THE SILENCE WILL STOP AND TAKE HER BREATH AWAY!
Feeling so useless.
"Can I beg for one more?" she said.
Taking with arms WIDE open.
LONGING for sleep again.
But now, I'm awake... (I'M AWAKE...)
But now, I'm awake... (I'M AWAKE...)
But now, I'm awake... (I'M AWAKE...)
No sooner than this
Have you rushed to shore
What's left of yourself to save?
Expect nothing less
You're waiting alone
Don't hold your breath anymore
It's winter in a land of promise
That you left to me
(What would you say?)
It's enough to dispose
Shallow waters are frozen
Secrets are left alone
Is this when you thought you'd have all the answers?
You only get what you give
But I can't deny
When it's all been said and done
I burned a thousand goodbyes
It's winter in a land of promise
That you left to me
(What would you say?)
It's enough to dispose
Shallow waters are frozen
Secrets are left alone
I crossed another bridge today
I crossed another line
Before we cross that bridge again
Let's wait here for awhile...
All in all we're never looking back
Dance in time to save each other
All in all i'm never looking back at you
Don't ever beg for...
You never even had a chance to save yourself
It's winter in a land of promise
That you left to me
(What would you say?)
It's enough to dispose
Shallow waters are frozen
Can't you see
That I wanna be
There with open arms
It's empty tonight
And I'm all alone
Get me through this one
Do you notice I'm gone?
Where do you run to
So far away?
I want you to know that
I miss you, I miss you so
I want you to know that
I miss you, I miss you so
I'm writing again
These letters to you
Aren't much I know
But I'm not sleeping and
You're not here
The thought stops my heart
Do you notice I'm gone?
Where do you run to
So far away?
No more looking,
I've found home
I want you to know that
I miss you, I miss you so
I want you to know that
I miss you, I miss you so
I want you to know that
I miss you, I miss you so
I want you to know that
I miss you, I miss you so
Behind a mask,
A man can bask
Only for so long
Before being exposed to the sun
The moon is up, a whisper of,
"'Till death do you wrong."
Patients bother a patient doctor.
Plastics itch, and bandages.
The aftermath won't add up to this.
The fever breaks,
And it would take a masochist
TO LIVE LIKE THIS.
Buried my wife today.
Restitution for my sanity.
Chasing demons dressed like me.
Their eyes are not like mine.
Ignorance is divine.
Instincts are reduced to teeth
That bite the hand that feeds.
Fear thy father, love thy martyr.
The verdict of the jury hung
On the weight of what has become.
A starry night, a vengeful wish, "IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE LIKE THIS!"
Buried my wife today.
Restitution for my sanity.
Buried my wife today.
Restitution for my sanity.
Sound the alarm, and make no mistake about this.
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Have been sent to put this boy back together again.
But somehow,
He must have been predicting the fall.
CAGED RATS, EXPERIMENTS!
A BRAIN WITH NO OXYGEN!
RELEASE ALL THE HOSTAGES!
You've got to wash your hands of this.
CAGED RATS, EXPERIMENTS!
A BRAIN WITH NO OXYGEN!
RELEASE ALL THE HOSTAGES!
You've got to wash your hands of this.
This...
This...
The verdict of the jury hung
On the weight of what has become.
A STARRY NIGHT, A VENGEFUL WISH, "IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE LIKE THIS!"
MURDER!
MURDER!
MURDER!
Below the Earth,
Flies and serpents,
Fire and brimstone.
Remove the backbone,
Say hello to sunshine,
Wake up you're baptized.
The temple is made,
Something to believe in,
It's something to me,
The evidence is all we taste.
Under the skin the heart is pumping.
What brought you to this?
You watched me use this (useless)
Focus on the picture,
Lose sight of the vision.
The temple is made.
Something to believe in,
It's something to me
The evidence is all we taste.
Man makes changes, man wants everything.
Man makes changes, man wants everything...
I'm on my way back home.
I've lost my way,
I've gone astray,
I'm on way back down.
They'll let me in from the cold.
Cause I'm the new kid, like everybody.
Cause everybody lives again.
I'm in my new skin, safe in knowing
That one day we will meet again.
I'm sheltered here in my wings,
And I will not forget you're everything.
Cause in your heart is where I live.
And that's alright...
You are alive...
Cause I'm the new kid, like everybody.
Cause everybody lives again.
I'm in my new skin, safe in knowing
That one day we will meet again.
Said I'm alright...
And now...
Said I'm alright...
Cause I'm the new kid, like everybody.
Cause everybody lives again.
I'm in my new skin, safe in knowing
[Originally by Tears for Fears]
All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
And I find it kinda funny
I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very mad world mad world
Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me
And I find it kinda funny
I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very mad world ... mad world
Enlarging your world
Spark of sulfur ignites,
The remnants of tonight,
Space still echoes,
The solitude of night,
What you're after may not,
Shine so bright,
Midnight concealing,
All of these lies,
Blood from beneath the skin,
It's just a voice calling,
Don't wanna hear it, don't wanna make a scene,
If you catch me now then I'll see you in hell,
If you make amends, will you make it back?
And if you have the time, will you crack a smile?
This is only a test,
To prove your innocence,
Take the pill that you don't lie, to satisfy,
Following everything gonna die,
He pushed his way into the space between her broken self,
Now he just stands here waiting, waiting,
Blood from beneath the skin,
It's just a voice calling,
Don't wanna hear it, don't wanna make a scene,
If you catch me now I'm crawling back from hell,
If you make amends, will you make it back?
Here I am beside myself again
I'm torn apart by words that you have said
and all in all, I know we're falling apart
Where did you run to so far away
And here we are to sing you a song
And there you are asleep against the windowpane
Just like always
You said you like to hear the rain sometimes
and all I can do is tell you the truth
Oh my eyes will tell you the same
And here we are to sing you a song
And there you are asleep again
And here we are to sing you a song
And there you are asleep again
Grasp our hands together, we feel we are one result (x4)
And here we are to sing you a song
And there you are asleep again (x3)
Open up my eyes,
Flooded with daylight.
Another sleepless night turns color black and white.
With all the things I've said,
There is just regret,
Repeating in my head.
Hands into a fist,
Static in my head.
Now I'm sitting face to face with loneliness.
What did I expect?
Did I see forever
In you?
I never want it to hurt
More than it should.
I hope you're satisfied;
I never could.
Time to close my eyes,
Forget about this mess,
Try to fix this tragic loss of innocence.
But how can I forget
The things I haven't done,
When everything is dead?
I never want it to hurt
more than it should.
I hope you're satisfied;
I never could.
Can't you see that you left me
Here on my own?
Give me one good reason why I should let go...
With my hands around your neck...
Who will stop me now?
With my hands around your neck...
Who will stop me now?
With my hands around your neck...
Who will stop me now?
With my hands around your neck...
WHO WILL STOP ME NOW? (WHO WILL STOP ME NOW?)
WHO WILL STOP ME NOW? (WHO WILL STOP ME NOW?)
WHO WILL STOP ME NOW? (WHO WILL STOP ME NOW?)
WHO WILL STOP ME NOW? (WHO WILL STOP ME NOW?)
WHO WILL STOP ME NOW? (WHO WILL STOP ME NOW?)
WHO WILL STOP ME NOW? (WHO WILL STOP ME NOW?)
WHO WILL STOP ME NOW? (WHO WILL STOP ME NOW?)
WHO WILL STOP ME NOW? (WHO WILL STOP ME NOW?)
I never wanted it to hurt (WHO WILL STOP ME NOW?) (WHO WILL STOP ME NOW?)
more than it should. (WHO WILL STOP ME NOW?) (WHO WILL STOP ME NOW?)
I hope you're satisfied; (WHO WILL STOP ME NOW?) (WHO WILL STOP ME NOW?)
I never could. (WHO WILL STOP ME NOW?) (WHO WILL STOP ME NOW?)
Can't you see that you left me (WHO WILL STOP ME NOW?) (WHO WILL STOP ME NOW?)
Here on my own. (WHO WILL STOP ME NOW?) (WHO WILL STOP ME NOW?)
Somebody's Heinekin
Is crowding my icebox
Somebody's cold one
Is giving me chills
I guess I'll just close my eyes
Oh yeah
Alright
Feels good
Inside
Flip on the tele
Wrestle with Jimmy
Something is bubbling
Behind my back
The bottle is ready to blow
Say it ain't so
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so
My love is a life taker
I can't confront you
I never could do that
Which might hurt you
Try and be cool
When I say
This way is a waterslide
Away from me
That takes you further
Every day
So be cool
Say it ain't so
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so
My love is a life taker
Dear Daddy,
I write you
In spite of years of silence
You've cleaned up
Found Jesus
Things are good or so I hear
This bottle of Steven's
Awakens ancient feelings
Like father, stepfather
The son is drowning in the flood
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Say it ain't so
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so
My love is a life taker
Say it ain't so
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so
Oh, my God, I think I'm blind
I've found one color, won't suffice
You promised, sleep tonight
Call it a whisper that comes from the distance
To protect all your children
One more, one more, one more minute
To fight off the bad guy
Now go to sleep
Nightmares make these scars
A stomaches bloody hole
Sinking quicksand eyes
Makes for heavy sight
It's painless, it's painless
To float above the earth
Like this
Tie me to a chair
Subconsciously, surrendering
Now that I'm awake
It's hard for me to make believe
Blood between the sheets
Insomniatic meat, oh, can't shut my eyes?
Void of nightmares, leading upstairs
Do I follow? Can't shut my eyes?
Tie me to a chair
Subconsciously, surrendering
Now that I'm awake
It's hard for me to make believe
This is the worst thing that you have ever done
This is the worst thing that you have ever done
This is the worst thing that you have ever done
This is the worst thing that you have ever done
This is the worst thing that you have ever done
This is the worst thing that you have ever done
This is the worst thing that you have ever done
She shouts, "The most incessant, the most deplete"
She said, "Show me conscience with nothing to be"
She said, "Null the worm"
Let's sober up
Caught in time with the fizz of the burn
And so we burn
Can you begin at the ending,
So that I may begin again?
I took this from you,
I thought I was you
Now don't misunderstand me
I never meant to, to create you
Hand me downs and photographs,
Spread across the floor.
A broken record spins in circles,
She can't listen anymore.
She's turned around a thousand times,
She set that bridge afire!
But did you wanna listen?
You took the world with you!
So what is left,
So what is left for me?
I called you on the phone again,
Just the other day.
It sounds to me you found your place
And everything is great.
But did you wanna listen?
You took the world with you!
So what is left,
So what is left for me?
But did you wanna listen?
You took the world with you!
So what is left,
So what is left for me?
I TRY so hard to figure out WHY.
No explanation keeps me waiting.
Let's try! (LET'S TRY!)
Because I know you won't forget, I know. (I KNOW...)
Even if the story is over...
I KNOW...
It's over...
I KNOW...
It's over...
I KNOW...
But did you wanna listen?
You took the world with you.
So what is left,
So what is left for me?
WHAT'S LEFT FOR ME?
But did you wanna listen?
You took the world with you!
So what is left,
So what is left for me?
WHAT'S LEFT FOR ME?
But did you wanna listen? (FOR ME?)
You took the world with you! (WHAT'S LEFT FOR ME?)
So what is left,
So what is left for me? (FOR ME?)
SHE BURNS
Today's on fire
The sky is bleeding above me, and I am blistered
I walk these lines of blasphemy, every day
And still...
Like a bad star, I'm falling faster down to her
She's the only one who knows what it is to burn
I feel diseased
Is there no sympathy from the sun?
The sky's still fire,
But I am safe in here from the world outside
So tell me,
What's the price to pay for glory?
Like a bad star, I'm falling faster down to her
She's the only one who knows what it is to burn
Today is fire, and she burns
Today is fire, and she burns
SHE BURNS
SHE BURNS
SHE BURNS
SHE BURNS
SHE BURNS
SHE BURNS
Like a bad star, I'm falling faster down to her
