When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special
But I'm a creep
But I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
Well I don't belong here
I don't care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I'm not around
You're so fucking special, special
And I wish I was special, special
But I'm a creep
But I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
Well I don't belong here
You, you,
Run, run, you run
Run, run, run, run, run, run
Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so fucking special, yes, you are
I wish I was special
But I'm a creep
Well I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here
But I'm a creep
But I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
You're a child, crayon in hand
You're out of line again
And your colors are untrue
You make the border disappear
Like it was never there
To justify the things you do
The red comes washing down
And this time there's no white to be found
I'm reaching out to you
To try and take your color
So grab your paintbrush
Now's the time to showcase your pain
And all inferiority
Your eyes, they speak
Your eyes they meet everything and everyone
They feel your sense of jealousy
The red comes washing down
This time there's no white to be found
I'm reaching out to you
To try and take your color
Clip my wings before I fly
Clip my wings so I can die
Pressed against the dirt
You can't feel my hurt
Watch your shadow paint the sky
As I follow in my mind
Forever falling short
Too many thoughts to sort
Flat on my face
I can't keep pace
But someday I'll be on top
High above you all
In spite of my history, this is me
I've got no farther left to fall
Shoot me down, I'm in my prime
Shoot me down, you've done no crime
It's all a pecking order
That we all must shoulder
Watch your shadow fill a space
In spite of all that falls from grace
The circle's spinning
The new's beginning
Flat on my face
And I still need my space
But someday I'll be on top
High above you all
In spite of my history, this is me
With life on hold
Say goodbye to old habits of circumstance
The way you know me
Seems to show me why I'm glad that we took this chance
I've fallen short of grace
Each time I see your face you make me feel so free
But I can't comprise
And I won't compromise all you've done for me
I know it seems like a dream
Please, God, don't take this away from me
The way you love me all the same
I'm amazed at who you are
This moment in my life
It's like I've never loved before
The way you show me with a kiss
How much you care
You are love
You are life
You are peace of mind
The way you love me all the same
I'm amazed at who you are
This moment in my life
It's like I've never loved before
The way you show me with a kiss
How much you care
You are love
You are life
You are love
You are life
You are love
You are life
And though I died before,
but I won't die any more to comfort you
and distort the view.
Are you afraid to cry?
Are you afraid to die for beliefs set in stone
and those thoughts that you can't condone?
Why do you care that I've been drowning?
Why do you care when everything I built goes tumbling down?
Why do you care that I've been bleeding, conceding, for being?
But in the end
Why do you care?
I cut my wrists for you
my pride left far and few
I gather all these lies
The how's, the what's and why's.
I feel it sinking in
It's time for sink or swim.
You hold on tight with all your might.
Why do you care that I've been drowning?
Why do you care when everything I built goes tumbling down?
Why do you care that I've been bleeding, conceding, for being?
But in the end
Why do you care?
It's all the same
I see no change
Well let me go
Well let me know.
I cry in vain
to drown the pain
I close my eyes
and I feel myself die.
Why do you care that I've been drowning?
Why do you care when everything I built goes tumbling down?
Why do you care that I've been bleeding, conceding, for being?
But in the end...why do you, why do you care?
Why do you care that I've been drowning
I swear I've seen it all before
I swear this vice that you adore will be your end
My words are falling on deaf ears
As they always have for far too many years
And I say,
You deviate from what you are
You compensate for each and every scar
You can't control your self-perception
In spite of all this misdirection
Why can't you see
That everything you're chasing is just nothing but a fallacy
You seem a blind to be
With all your disregard you're showing every card
Of who you are
It's over when it's over and there is no four-leaf clover
Try again
I swear I'm feeling this again
I swear I can't seem to begin a thought process
My words are jumbled in my mind
Oh how I wish that there was some way to push rewind
I deviate from what I am
I compensate for each and every man
I can't control my self-perception
In spite of all my indiscretion
Why can't you see
That everything you're chasing is just nothing but a fallacy
You seem a blind to be
With all your disregard you're showing every card
Of who you are
It's over when it's over and there is no four-leaf clover
Try again
Why can't you see
That everything you're chasing is just nothing but a fallacy
You seem a blind to be
With all your disregard you're showing every card
Of who you are
It's over when it's over and there is no four-leaf clover
The secrets of hers she swears nobody knows
She gets her happiness from her AM radio
The static in her smile,
Mile after mile
As she drives home
He's a lost cause, a cigarrette in hand
He left his family to be the singer in a band
The feedback in his eyes,
Should come as no surprise
To all of those in spell
I heard the call but I never started running
I took the hit and I never saw it coming
What a way to go
Drop to your knees and remember where you came from
This is the time to abandon hesitation
Watch your bombs fall down below
I stare at the ceiling fan as a whisper inside of me
Telling me just who I am and just how I ought to be
Descrepancies are vain,
And the memories I made
Are out to sea
So stand up and face the flag of the nation in your eyes
Lest the beating of the drum makes you forget to question why
Forget to question why,
Why we always die
To cover up the lie
I heard the call but I never started running
I took the hit and I never saw it coming
What a way to go
Drop to your knees and remember where you came from
This is the time to abandon hesitation
Watch your bombs fall down below, watch your bombs fall down below
I heard the call but I never started running
I took the hit and I never saw it coming
What a way to go
Drop to your knees and remember where you came from
This is the time to abandon hesitation
Watch your bombs fall down below, watch your bombs fall down below
No fool's eye to recognize
Where growth is preferred, my growth is deterred
If I could find an alibi, then I might find something good
No blood can be seen yet it still can be she'd
Know these words that you speak are like nails in my head
Here's the last words I'll write for you
From the start I'd lost step with you
Now you'll see,
You're far too unlucky for me
A warning shot hits the air in the form of a child
How immense for another to raise one of it's kind
No reason to scream; seems it's all in my head
Know these words that you speak now wash off with the dead
Here's the last words I'll write for you
From the start I'd lost step with you
Now you'll see,
You're far too unlucky for me
Where's the time go when walking blind
Where's the love when you never mind
Seems to be,
Self-revelation hits me like a brick; it's four A.M.
Sleep's out of the question when you're stuck inside the state I'm in
Where everything I see is redundancy
I'm at wits' end over you
[Chorus]:
Middle finger's in the air, they're waving at me
No barricade to call my own
So let the stones fly but one last request
Will you carry me home?
I'm seeing clearly with my eyes closed tight
I'm seeing clearly in spite of everything that's wrong or right
I walk on eggshells and broken glass
On my hands and knees, open wounds
[Chorus]
Middle finger's in the air, they're waving at me
No barricade to call my own
So let the stones fly but one last request
Will you carry me home?
Middle finger's in the air, they're waving at me
No barricade to call my own
So let the stones fly but one last request
Will you carry me?
Will you carry me?
She's grabbing hold of my eyes
Always in focus
But she doesn't know us
Her presence is felt in my bones
And her voice is present
And I feel it's hell-sent
So lay me down with the discontent
Redundancy that I represent
I try too hard to escape it all
That's why I'm praying for the fall
Her image is burning my eyes
With everything I say
To myself through the day
I can't find my comfort anymore
I'm losing dignity
It's all that's left of me
So lay me down with the discontent
Redundancy that I represent
I try too hard to escape it all
That's why I'm praying for the fall
So lay me down with the discontent
Redundancy that I represent
I try too hard to escape it all
Look at my hand
Manipulate to serve
What I feel like I deserve
The basis is faulty
And there's no place to rest my head
So I wait in the depth instead
I'm waiting to bleed
So I'll know that I am alive
And my patience is justified
I can't get a grip
When there's nothing to hold on to
I need a separate point of view
Truth is a gun
I'm aiming at everyone
I'm driven by fear
It's no longer safe in here
My message is clean
Break off from who you've been
You're shot in the head
Another one dead
So tell me your views
Like I'm unable to oppose
Nothing legible to compose
So take your win
Walk around with your head held high
But afraid it will pass you by
I'm waiting to bleed
So I'll know that I am alive
And my actions are justified
I can't get a grip
When there's nothing to hold on to
But I know I'm better than you
Truth is a gun
I'm aiming at everyone
I'm driven by fear
It's no longer safe in here
My message is clean
Break off from who you've been
You're shot in the head
Another one dead
Truth is a gun
I'm aiming at everyone
I'm driven by fear
It's no longer safe in here
My message is clean
Break off from who you've been
You're shot in the head
Another one dead, another one dead, another one dead
I'm on the other side
Waiting and praying
Can't seem to justify
The things you keep saying
Can't seem to understand
The way that you hate
But it's okay to say
That you don't feel that way, yeah
But stop lying and trying
To prove yourself to me
'Cause I don't care
I'm leaving this behind
In my six-fold solitude
I'm drowning on the inside, say goodbye
To what you thought you knew, yeah
I'm here to testify
For those who've been broken
Live not a way to die
Let dreams be awoken
Take it from one who's been
A martyr left alone
But it's ok to say
That you don't feel that way
But stop lying and trying
To grovel at my feet
Oh do you dare? yeah, yeah
I'm leaving this behind
In my six-fold solitude
I'm drowning on the inside, say goodbye
To what you thought you knew, yeah
I'm leaving this behind
In my six-fold solitude, oh, yeah,
I'm drowning on the inside, say goodbye
To what you thought you knew, yeah
I'm leaving this behind
I'm drowning on the inside, say goodbye
I feel so lonely
No one to console me
Here as I sit aments the wind
I have to see me
Not even I believe me
And my thoughts are on the mend
The sun plays tricks on my eyes
Trying now to make my way through all the lies
Put on my face to fool you all
But I don't have that far left to fall
It's therapy for me
To wear my heart on my sleeve
It's therapy for me
It's therapy for me
But you can see this
You never been this
Question everything you are
I'll come back stronger
Can't help but remember that it's easy when it's done being hard
The sun plays tricks on my eyes
Trying now to make my way throught all the empty lies
Put on my face to fool you all
But I don't have that far left to fall
It's therapy for me
To wear my heart on my sleeve
It's therapy for me
It's therapy for me
I'll come back stronger
I've read all I need to
From the look on the mirror
It's getting much clearer for me
And others around
That I'm not who I say
Maybe just for today, I am
Perfection's not guaranteed
'Cause I don't know what I need
Work in progress, it seems
This is me
I'm not gonna stop you
From wanting much better
For needing to weather this storm
Of assurances broken
That are swarming our senses
Breaking down our defenses again
Perfection's not guaranteed
'Cause I don't know what I need
Work in progress, it seems
This is me
Perfection's not guaranteed
'Cause I don't know what I need
Work in progress, it seems
My lonely way
Day after day
Can't find my inspiration
Settle for consolation
I'm wasting away
The sky begins to fade
And I wish that I was made
To stand against the wind
As if it were my friend
I feel betrayed
Please hold to what you know
'Cause I just can't seem to tell you how I feel
And I feel something in my soul that tells me this is real
And I know I can't explain
Why pleasure feels like pain
Try to hide, try to subside
Everything I feel inside
Please hold to what you know
'Cause I just can't seem to tell you how I feel
And I feel something in my soul that tells me this is real
Please hold to what you know
'Cause I just can't seem to tell you how I feel
I feel something in my soul that tells me this is real
Please hold to what you know
'Cause I just can't seem to tell you how I feel, yeah
I feel something in my soul that tells me this is real
It's real
It's real
It's real
It's real
It's real
It's real
Inside I'm empty and outside I'm numb
And I keep on waiting for the pain to succumb
Inside I'm lonely, outside I'm alone
As the world falls apart in the end
Hate floods my body and thoughts cloud my mind
Can't shake the cobwebs that I find, yeah
The darkness flutters around my head
Sometimes, I wonder, Am I dead?
I'm breaking down as you're breaking out
Can't seem to conquer what life's all about
In the end I'll fall right before your eyes
Your cries, your lies, I die
Somber
I hope you're happy with what you've done
You've burned all bridges, how's the power of one?
I hear your heart beat as you walk on by
I see inside you on this final goodbye
Hate floods my body and thoughts cloud my mind
Can't shake the cobwebs that I find, yeah
The darkness flutters around my head
Sometimes, I wonder, Am I dead? yeah, yeah
I'm breaking down as you're breaking out
Can't seem to conquer what life's all about
In the end I'll fall right before your eyes
Your cries, your lies, I die
Somber
Seems life has changed
Time to do without
I'm gonna check myself before
I check out yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm breaking down as you're breaking out
Can't seem to conquer what life's all about
In the end I'll fall right before your eyes
Your cries, your lies, I die
I'm breaking down as you're breaking out
Can't seem to conquer what life's all about
In the end I'll fall right before your eyes
Your cries, your lies, I die
Somber, yeah, yeah, yeah
True friends stab you in the front; you've got my throat
And all I know is on the floor
And as I watch my trust in you fall hopeless, I feel faint
And I'm still begging you for more
Devoted to you
Devoted to this, I stumble
And I crumble beneath the weight I bear
I'm struggling through
I'm struggling with my innocence
But I'm sure you wouldn't care
My God, it's been so long since I felt something so secure
As I walk on broken ground
I see the things that I have done to make me fall down at your feet
Without making a sound
Devoted to you
Devoted to this, I stumble
And I crumble beneath the weight I bear
I'm struggling through
I'm struggling with my innocence
But I'm sure you wouldn't care
Devoted to you
Devoted to this, I stumble
And I crumble beneath the weight I bear
I'm struggling through
I'm struggling with my innocence
But I'm sure you wouldn't care
Devoted to you
Devoted to this, I stumble
And I crumble beneath the weight I bear
I'm struggling through
I'm struggling with my innocence
But I'm sure you wouldn't care
Too many thoughts consume the things I say and do
Too many times have changed
When all you've known is left to die amidst the sun
Your life's been rearranged.
That's when you say under your breath all those things best left unsaid
and your morals start to fade.
You run on empty through the fold, shedding your beliefs
You're living this charade.
(chorus)
You lie inside your head,
pondering what life holds for you
You hold your soul up to the light
as the sun changes you
Too many times left standing against what faith can do
This time I think I know
You stand here forever, with no place to go.
You say that life's been nothing but a state of mind
and nothing but a point in time
You're left to watch us all surround you
Live life while you're confined.
Jealousy and envy crawl beneath your skin
and your heart begins to die
You're beaten, swollen, aching
An eye for an eye, yeah.
(chorus)
Always saying I ain't good enough
Never knowing why my life's so rough
Always concerned with superficial ways
I'm here to tell you that these are the end of days
Rain keeps coming down as it shadows out the sun
It's coming closer now, you're anything but done, yeah.
I'm so sick of being misused, unused, reused
Can't take no more being misled, unfed, abused
Don't tell me what you feel
Misinterpret my will
Can't handle the falling of the rain.
It keeps coming fast and strong
No remorse shown for what's right or wrong
Make no statement to decree
Because it, it knows that, that you're never free
Rain keeps coming down as it shadows out the sun
It's coming closer now, you're anything but done, yeah.
I'm so sick of being misused, unused, reused
Can't take no more being misled, unfed, abused
Don't tell me what you feel
Misinterpret my will
Can't handle the falling of the rain.
I'm so sick of being misused, unused, reused
Can't take no more being misled, unfed, abused
Don't tell me what you feel
Misinterpret my will
My days are slowly counting down till I can breathe no more.
These shallow reservations leave my soul so sore.
Hold on and see the way, the way that I fall.
I part my stairway to hell
This lie seems so old.
Crawl through the doorway to my life and take a look around
Feel it holding all my pain and strife as you beat me to the ground
My days are stranded inside me, and I can't break free
I guess it's all in a day's lie for what's left of me.
Too many times I've fallen, too many times I've cried
Left all my thoughts to wander, left all my peace to die
My heart's a million pieces, all spread upon the ground
My eyes saw an empty painting
Quiet, there's no sound
Crawl through the doorway to my life and take a look around
Feel it holding all my pain and strife as you beat me to the ground
My days are stranded inside me, and I can't break free
I guess it's all in a day's lie for what's left of me.
I've got no destination
I'm sick of alienation
Please God, no defamation
Crawl through the doorway to my life and take a look around
Feel it holding all my pain and strife as you beat me to the ground
My days are stranded inside me, and I can't break free
I guess it's all in a day's lie for what's left of me.
Forseen changing
Played along
Lived a life by right and wrong.
You've always been the one to say
that we would never even see this day.
We'll fight for what we believe
and we'll strive to live and achieve
and to be everything in mind
it's only a matter of time.
It's been a while
we're still here.
How quickly we rose
to claim this fear.
We're standing tall and we're standing strong
In the light, right where we belong.
We'll fight for what we believe
and we'll strive to live and achieve
and to be everything in mind
it's only a matter of time.
We'll fight for what we believe
and we'll strive to live and achieve
and to be everything in mind
it's only a matter of time.
This time you've got the best of me
Lay me down right next to apathy
It's for better or for worse
It's both a blessing and a curse
That feeds on me
So blind my eyes and feel no shame
Brush it off along with blame
And then call in
Hide behind your bitter fate
To keep inside your bitter hate
You don't like what I do
Well it's not about you
So go on and feed your ego
You bathe in sin you can't wash clean
Try to cash in what you can't redeem
It's for better or for worse
It's both a blessing and a curse
That lives in me
Say what you can to compensate
For there's no one there to appreciate
Why you don't bleed like I do
Hide behind your bitter fate
To keep inside your bitter pain
You don't like what I do
Well it's not about you
The world falls down around me
Tales of faith and spirituality
My hands are worn from holding on
My eyes are numb from being gone
And now I know I swore I'd never let this bring me down.
I'm empty again
I lost control of my only friend
I live in colors of black and blue
And I live with this burden without you
Without you
I'm chained to the wall in pain
I've never been the one to die in vain.
My heart's on the line,
no conception of time
Reach out, close my eyes, and let this pass away.
I'm empty again
I've lost control of my only friend
I live in colors of black and blue
and I live with this burden, without you.
I'm empty again
I lost control of my only friend
I live in colors of black and blue
Seeing all my mistakes etched in stone
Peeling all the layers of my soul and I feel alone
You stand beside me, a shadow of myself and I feel hollow
And I can't swallow
No, it's not fair
Nobody ever told me it would be this hard
Forgive me no more promises; he'll tell you no more lies
It's not supposed to be this way
Reach your steady hand
Reach your promised land
With or without me
'Cause I'm falling far away
To fumble the light of day and I cease to be
But take comfort in the fact
That I won't be hanging on your back as you go forward
So say your prayers and say goodnight
Whether you're wrong, whether you're right I know it's hard
To be who you want to be
No time to sit and comprehend; I've made up my mind
To be a martyr for the cause
And I can't pretend to mind
And you stand beside me, an outline of myself and I feel okay
And I seem okay
Oh it's not fair
Nobody ever told me this would never end
And it happens once again, oh
So go and lead your own life and leave me to mine
I'm not prepared to die
Reach your steady hand
Reach your promised land
With or without me
'Cause I'm falling far away
To fumble the light of day and I cease to be
But take comfort in the fact
I won't be hanging on your back as you go forward
So say your prayers and say goodnight
Whether you're wrong, whether you're right I know it's hard
To be who you want to be
Reach your steady hand
Reach your promised land
With or without me
'Cause I'm falling far away
To fumble the light of day and I cease to be
And you'll never ever be
But take comfort in the fact
I won't be hanging on your back as you go forward
So say your prayers and say goodnight
Whether you're wrong, whether you're right I know it's hard
Be who you want to be, yeah
Life's not what it used to be
I struggle to survive
Always short of everything
A failure in your eyes
To understand what's in my head
Takes energy for two
Let all be known and all be shown
What I really think of you
So hold me to the light
And watch me fade to white
And burn away.
Their souls are on your hands
Too late to make amends
You've chosen your way.
I've heard it all before,
And I won't preach it anymore
That life's not made to waste.
So do what you can to be,
Be who you want to be,
Just in case
Stranglehold of bend and fold
To feed your sense of self
I spent my life to be your slave
Surrounded by myself
To want someone to comprehend
Is to want it all in gold
I see myself in black and white
Beaten down and old
Beaten down and old
So hold me to the light
And watch me fade to white
And burn away.
Their souls are on your hands
Too late to make amends
You've chosen your way.
I've heard it all before,
I won't preach it anymore
Life's not made to waste.
So do what you can to be,
Be who you want to be,
So much for being alone
Cold peace on my own
I'll cut my skin to show you I'm alive
A king on high vault throne
The world is ours to own
Our ashes are so divine
I'll swim in you if you'll drown in me
We'll search everywhere for a happy ending
Incarcerate, rest peacefully
Where you are
Do you remember me
With all that I can see
A hole in my head because you were mine
Like a closed book you can't read brings back those memories
On how everything looks outside
It looks outside
I'll swim in you if you'll drown in me
We'll search everywhere for a happy ending
Incarcerate, rest peacefully
Where you are
Incarcerate
Incarcerate
I'll swim in you if you'll drown in me
We'll search everywhere for a happy ending
Incarcerate, rest peacefully
Like a string around my finger you remind me
Of what it is to breathe
When all is lost and all seems hopeless
You breathe your life to me
Well I'm a crier, I'm a liar
And you've seen the last of me, yeah
You're a winner, still a sinner
But you're better than can be
I swear I'm over you
I'm doing what they told me to
In order to forget you
In order to regret you
Pay your way
Come what may
We'll see the day when I don't need you
I'm walking blind
No way to find
When you were mine and I still want you
Like a rope around my neck I'm running circles
Around the thought of you
'Cause all is lost and all seems hopeless
In my manic point of view
Well I'm a crier, I'm a liar
You've not seen the last of me
You're a winner, still a sinner, yes, you are
But you're better off than me
I swear I'm over you
I'm doing what I'm told to do
In order to forget you
Just so I can regret you
Pay your way
Come what may
We'll see the day when I don't need you
I'm walking blind
No way to find
When you were mine and I still want you
Pay your way
Come what may
We'll see the day when I don't need you
I'm walking blind
No way to find
When you were mine and I still want you
He takes a number, stands in line
'Cause he doesn't feel like himself.
And he's always played though off they were
Just cared for his sense of self.
But he plays on in spite of everything,
Disillusioned by his right.
What makes it all go away
When you can't put up a fight, you can't put up a fight?
Oh but it's okay to breathe your worries away
When everything and everyone try to lead you astray
Hold your own, hold your ground, hold to light when you're down
And always believe that there's a way back home
She's waiting on the answer,
A way to let them know.
The thought of someone else inside her,
And the fear began to grow.
Warm tears feed dry hands
As she falls to the ground.
It's strange how sadness presents itself
When there's no one around, there's no one around.
Oh but it's okay to breathe your worries away
When everything and everyone try to lead you astray
Hold your own, hold your ground, hold to light when you're down
And always believe that there's a way back 'round
Oh but it's okay to breathe your worries away
When everything and everyone try to lead you astray
Hold your own, hold your ground, hold to light when you're down
And always believe that there's a way back home
Hold your own, hold your ground, hold to life when you're down
(A way back home)
And always believe there's a way back home
(A way back home)
Hold your own, hold your ground, hold to life when you're down
(Oh, you're down)
A way back home
(Hold your ground)
Bury your thoughts, bury my soul and pray to hold
You're too afraid to take this on and face the ridicule
Try as you might you can't fool me
The pain you hide seems so close to me
And it's ok to close your eyes to see
To make believe you're happy for the world to see
I know you think there's nothing left to do
But I'll come down to you, and I'll come down to you
Bury you face inside your hands tonight and hide the tear and
Try not to contemplate these innate fears
I just can't seem to do what's needed
And leave you lost and mistreated, yeah
And it's ok to close your eyes to see
To make believe you're happy for the world to see
I know you think there's nothing left to do
But I'll come down to you, and I'll come down to you
I see the pain you feel
I know it seems real
There's nothing left to do
So I'll come down to you, down to you
And it's ok to close your eyes to see
To make believe you're happy for the world to see, yeah
I know you think there's nothing left to do
But I'll come down to you, down to you
Watching, waiting for a sign from something else
To let me know that I'm not by myself
Turning points and loneliness abound
I'm better off not having you around
I'm far too blind to see
The things you've done to me
This time I've no regard
Time to put up my guard
Looking back on better days,
Keep finding pieces of myself in yesterday
Looking for another way
To break apart the sea of mediocrity.
So hold me down; not any lock
Will keep me from the things I long for
It's time you know
I'm holding back now
Although I don't know how
I ever let you go
Bleeding, forming scars in vain
I'm finding no shelter from the never-ending rain
I'm finding I don't know you, I don't know you
But I, I'll pay you back in kind
The shit has hit the fan
Realize I'm not your man
This time I've no regard
Time to put up your guard
Looking back on better days,
Keep finding pieces of myself in yesterday
Looking for another way
To break apart the sea of mediocrity, oh
So hold me down; not any lock
Will keep me from the things I long for
It's time you know
I'm holding back now
Although I don't know how
Help me find myself, 'cause I'm losing my mind
No sense of reason, no recollection of time
I reach for a purpose, and I'm met with no way
To find what possesses the things I can't say to you.
Try again, don't falter now
My eyes start to change
And it all stays the same
Let it go again, please say you will
Let it go again, swallow the pill
Let it go again, I've tried to live on
But in the end, it's all a trend, and life goes on.
I keep pressing on, looking for the light
You can't look me in the eye even though you're right
A taint of injustice everywhere I go
Not for what I am, but for what you don't even know.
Try again, don't falter now
My eyes start to change
And it all stays the same
Let it go again, please say you will
Let it go again, swallow the pill
Let it go again, I've tried to live on
But in the end, it's all a trend, and life goes on.
Let it go again, please say you will
Let it go again, swallow the pill
Let it go again, I've tried to live on
This is a callout
I just wanted to let you know
It's off with the fallout
And it's time for me to go
It's time for me to go
I need a chance to speak
'Cause I know what's meant for me
And I couldn't care less
What you do with yours; this moment's mine
This is a callout
I just wanted to let you know
It's off with the fallout
And it's time for me to go
Break down these pieces for me
My concentration's I'll at ease
And I couldn't care less
Your fifteen's up; it's my turn now
This is a callout
I just wanted to let you know
It's off with the fallout
And it's time for me to go
This is a callout
It's off with the fallout
This is a callout
I just wanted to let you know
It's off with the fallout
Take your turn to lean on me
I've leaned on you for so long
Your words, they hide behind your age
My words, they sing you this song
And I fall from this tightrope
That you've walked a thousand times
One step over two steps
You're wise beyond your eyes
Walk away, its your time
deny the tear in my eye
Your memory will never die
Your memory will never die
At peace I trust in you every step of the way
To stay with me til the end of the day
So move on to your tomorrow as we all say goodnight
Cause you're my sense of balance for the rest of my life
Now I'm waiting on the words that I've never had the chance to tell
So this is my I love you
This is my Fare thee well
Walk away, its your time
deny the tear in my eye
Your memory will never die
Your memory will never die
At peace I trust in you every step of the way
To stay with me til the end of the day
So move on to your tomorrow as we all say goodnight
Cause you're my sense of balance
for the rest of my life, rest of my life, rest of my life,
rest of my life, rest of my life,
You must understand I'd take your place in a heartbeat
You can't comprehend what watching you does to me
I can't comprehend the kinds of feeling inside of me
You must understand that this is all so new to me
Please know I love you and I miss you anyway
I'm coming to grips with what you deal with everyday
You're always on my mind
I can't seem to find my own sense of disregard
Lord knows I'm hurting for you
I feel so benign not having control of this
But I'm here through your malignancy
Please know I love you and I miss you anyway
I'm coming to grips with what you deal with everyday
You're always on my mind
Please know I love you and I miss you every way
I'm coming to grips with what you deal with everyday
Everyday
Please know I love you and I miss you every way
I'm coming to grips with what you deal with everyday

If General MacAllister gave up the wars,
And all of the people went back to their chores,
The all the King's horses and all the King's men could go home,
If all of the people were on the same side,
There'd be no need to run and no need to hide,
Then all of us here in our grey tattered coats could go home,
If you'd just listen sir once again,
To the reasons of one of your men,
You could make all these things come to pass,
Where I could lay on Arkansas grass,
Home, Home, goin' alone to the sound of the military brass
Home, home, lovin' alone, layin' on Arkansas grass
Once again-
Oooh-hooo-oo
Oooh-hooo-oo
So gaily we marched with the Grey and Red,
To lick 'em first time like the good General said,
With nary a thought that so very few would go home,
If it weren't so wrong for a soldier like me,
To throw down his gun, to run to be free,
Then all of us here with the fear in our eyes could go home,
If you'd just listen sir once again,
To the reasons of one of your men,
You could make all these things come to pass,
Where I could lay on Arkansas grass,
Home, Home, goin' alone to the sound of the military brass
Home, home, lovin' alone, layin' on Arkansas grass
Once again-
Layin' on Arkansas grass (x8)

Her father says she has to have a name,
not the same as her mum's, but a name just the same,
a little ray of sunshine has come into the world,
a little ray of sunshine in the shape of a girl.
We'll show her the dress that she'll wear
with the gold flowing hair that nature provided
a little ray of sunshine has come into the world,
a little ray of sunshine in the shape of a girl.
A little ray of sunhine -
I want to know if you think she looks good in the pink,
Her grandma has bought her ... our own little daughter.
She can make you feel good,
she can make you feel that it's all worthwhile,
only by her smile, only by her smile ...
Have you noticed she's just like her father, I think that I'd rather
her hair was much darker,
a little ray of sunshine has come into the world,
a little ray of sunshine in the shape of a girl.
She can make you feel good,
she can make you feel that it's all worthwhile,
only by her smile, only by her smile, only by her smile ...
talkin' 'bout my little ray of sunshine,
my little ray of sunshine,
little ray of sunshine,
little ray, little ray, little ray,
sweet little darlin',
