I'm everything you know You wonder friend or foe I'm the burning in your throat when you swallow But then you spit me out Your stomach full of doubt And still you're faking every word out of your mouth But you won't let go It's all about control Understand I'm born to lead you will follow No, I don't wanna stay I'm running away Don't you hear me when i say
Goodbye...so long...nice try...I'm gone You don't like being second I don't like being wrong I won't forget the way you made me feel I won't regret running away from here You think you see the world well you see nothing Time is only gonna make it worse in the end So I'll say goodbye again
But hold on to what you believe in the light When the darkness has robbed you of all your sight
And now this land means less and less to me without you breathing through its trees At every turn the water runs away from me and the halo disappears and the hole when you're not near
So what if I was wrong?
But hold on to what you believe in the light When the darkness has robbed you of all your sight
When the monsters are sleeping under your bed They’ve crawled out from under and into your head And outside the carcass, into your skin And you need someone to keep it like it’s said
Your wishes into the air So someone listens, someone is there And you won’t know anything about it Until you have to live without it
Chasin’ the fire for you Light in the night in bed Watching from high above you
If you can make it then you saved your eyes It doesn’t matter if you closed your eyes before you wake up I’ll keep you safe tonight ‘cause I’m a warrior And I’ll fight, I’ll fight, I’ll fight, I’ll fight
Your ears are moving behind your face Your arms are directing the time and the place And you only have to do the travelling You don’t have to design the engine
Doin’ the fightin’ for you Breakin’ the walls down Finding the right one maybe
If you can make it then you saved your eyes It doesn’t matter if you closed your eyes before you wake up I’ll keep you safe tonight ‘cause I’m a warrior And I’ll fight, I’ll fight, I’ll fight, I’ll fight
It's easier to run Replacing this pain with something numb It's so much easier to go Than face all this pain here all alone
Something has been taken from deep inside of me The secret I've kept locked away no one can ever see Wounds so deep they never show they never go away Like moving pictures in my head for years and years they've played
If I could change I would take back the pain I would Retrace every wrong move that I made I would If I could stand up and take the blame I would If I could take all the shame to the grave I would If I could change I would take back the pain I would Retrace every wrong move that I made I would If I could stand up and take the blame I would I would take all my shame to the grave
It's easier to run Replacing this pain with something numb It's so much easier to go Than face all this pain here all alone
Sometimes I remember the darkness of my past Bringing back these memories I wish I didn't have Sometimes I think of letting go and never looking back And never moving forward so there'd never be a past
A little less conversation, a little more action please All this aggravation aint satisfactioning me A little more bite and a little less bark A little less fight and a little more spark Close your mouth and open up your heart and baby satisfy me Satisfy me baby
Baby close your eyes and listen to the music Drifting through a summer breeze Its a groovy night and I can show you how to use it Come along with me and put your mind at ease
A little less conversation, a little more action please All this aggravation aint satisfactioning me A little more bite and a little less bark A little less fight and a little more spark Close your mouth and open up your heart and baby satisfy me Satisfy me baby
You kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when I tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn’t even matter
I had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn’t even matter
I've put my trust in you Pushed as far as I can go For all this There’s only one thing you should know I've put my trust in you Pushed as far as I can go For all this There’s only one thing you should know I tried so hard And got so far But in the end It doesn’t even matter I had to fall To lose it all But in the end It doesn’t even matter
Heavy thoughts seem to slip away When you were here on my darkest days I trust in you Many debts I cannot repay Too many clouds in my sky today I trust in you
As if it really matters You run
When I reach out for a hand to Pull me through the storm Pull me through the norm I reach for you
Broken glass as the evening fades Take another drink as it fades away I trust in you Stealing rays from the sun so bright Join a million people in the church tonight I trust in you
As if it really matters You run
When I reach out for a hand to Pull me through the storm Pull me through the norm I reach for you
In my mind I reach for you
Spread inside My mind You'll find That you really matter What's right In this life We must try As if it really matters
I've lied to you The same way that I always do This is the last smile That I'll fake for the sake of being with you
Everything falls apart Even the people who never frown Eventually break down The sacrifice of hiding in a lie Everything has to end You'll soon find we're out of time left To watch it all unwind The sacrifice is never knowing
Why I never walked away Why I played myself this way Now I see you're testing me pushes me away Why I never walked away Why I played myself this way Now I see your testing me pushes me away
I've tried like you To do everything you wanted too This is the last time I'll take the blame for the sake of being with you
I tried to remember the chorus, I can't remember the verse 'Cause that song that sent me swimming, Is now the life jacket that burst
Rotting like a wreck on the ocean floor, Sinking like a siren that can't swim anymore 'Cause our songs remind me of swimming, But I can't swim anymore
Pull me out the water, cold and blue, I open my eyes and I see that it's you, So I dive straight back in the ocean So I dive straight back in the ocean
Take a deep breath, suck the water in my chest Take a deep breath, suck the water in my chest Cross my fingers and hope for the best
Then all of a sudden, I heard a note, It started in my chest and ended in my throat Then I realized, then I realized, then I realized I was swimming, Yes, I was swimming And now I'm swimming, Yes, I am swimming
Graffiti decorations Under a sky of dust A constant wave of tension On top of broken trust The lessons that you taught me I learn were never true Now I find myself in question They point the finger at me again Guilty by association You point the finger at me again
I wanna run away Never say goodbye I wanna know the truth Instead of wondering why I wanna know the answers No more lies I wanna shut the door And open up my mind
Paper bags and angry voices Under a sky of dust Another wave of tension Has more than filled me up All my talk of taking action These words were never true Now I find myself in question They point the finger at me again Guilty by association You point the finger at me again
I wanna run away Never say goodbye I wanna know the truth Instead of wondering why I wanna know the answers No more lies I wanna shut the door And open up my mind
Like shining oil, this night is dripping down Stars are slipping down, glistening And I'm trying not to think what I'm leaving now No deceiving now, it's time you let me know. Let me know
When the lights go out and we open our eyes, Out there in the silence, I'll be gone, I'll be gone. Let the sun fade out and another one rise Climbing through tomorrow, I'll be gone, I'll be gone.
This air between us is getting thinner now Into winter now, bitter sweet Across that horizon this sun is setting down You're forgetting now, its time you let me go, let me go
When the lights go out and we open our eyes, Out there in the silence, I'll be gone, I'll be gone. Let the sun fade out and another one rise Climbing through tomorrow, I'll be gone, I'll be gone.
And tell them I couldn't help myself And tell them I was alone Oh, tell me I am the only one And there's nothing left to stop me.
Go ahead as you waste your days with thinking When you fall everyone stands Another day and you've had your fill of sinking With the life held in your Hands are shaking cold These hands are meant to hold
Speak to me, when all you got to keep is strong Move along, move along like I know you do And even when your hope is gone Move along, move along just to make it through Move along Move along
So a day when you've lost yourself completely Could be a night when your life ends Such a heart that will lead you to deceiving All the pain held in your Hands are shaking cold Your hands are mine to hold
Speak to me, when all you got to keep is strong Move along, move along like I know you do And even when your hope is gone Move along, move along just to make it through Move along
Are you there? Are you gone? Do you care? Is anybody home? Cause somethings lost, In your eyes. Are you blind? You're caught up in the lies.
Who you gonna call when they're coming after you?...yeah Where you gonna crawl when your fantasy is through?
Tell me, Do you really know me? Do you really see me? When you forget, You're fighting on your own. You are not alone. When your sky is falling, When your pain is calling, Don't forget, I will take you home, You are not alone.
When you crash, When you burn. Are you scared? Will you ever learn? Cause there's a price, That you pay. You'll realize tomorrows another day.
Sometimes I need to remember just to breathe Sometimes I need you to stay away from me Sometimes I’m in disbelief I didn’t know Somehow I need you to go
Don’t stay Forget our memories Forget our possibilities What you were changing me into Just give me myself back and Don’t stay Forget our memories Forget our possibilities Take all your faithlessness with you Just give me myself back and Don’t stay
Sometimes I feel like I trusted you too well Sometimes I just feel like screaming at myself Sometimes I’m in disbelief I didn’t know Somehow I need to be alone
Don’t stay Forget our memories Forget our possibilities What you were changing me into Just give me myself back and Don’t stay Forget our memories Forget our possibilities Take all your faithlessness with you Just give me myself back and Don’t stay
I don’t need you anymore, I don’t want to be ignored I don’t need one more day of you wasting me away I don’t need you anymore, I don’t want to be ignored I don’t need one more day of you wasting me away
Forfeit the game Before somebody else Takes you out of the frame And puts your name to shame Cover up your face You can't run the race The pace is too fast You just won't last
You love the way I look at you While taking pleasure in the awful things you put me through You take away if I give in My life My pride is broken
You like to think you're never wrong You live what you've learned You have to act like you're someone You live what you've learned You want someone to hurt like you You live what you've learned You want to share what you have been through You live what you've learned
I watch how the moon sits in the sky in the dark night Shining with the light from the sun The sun doesn't give light to the moon assuming The moon’s going to owe it one It makes me think of how you act to me You do favors and then rapidly You just turn around and start asking me about things that you want back from me
I’m sick of the tension, sick of the hunger Sick of you acting like I owe you this Find another place, to feed your greed - While I find a place to rest
I’m sick of the tension, sick of the hunger Sick of you acting like I owe you this Find another place, to feed your greed - While I find a place to rest
I want to be in another place I hate when you say you don’t understand (You’ll see it's not meant to be) I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy A place for my head Maybe someday I’ll be just like you and step on people like you do and Run away the people I thought I knew I remember back then who you were You used to be calm, used to be strong Used to be generous but you should’ve known That you’d wear out your welcome now you see how quiet it is, all alone
When this began I had nothing to say And I get lost in the nothingness inside of me I was confused And I let it all out to find That I’m not the only person with these things in mind Inside of me But all that they can see the words revealed Is the only real thing that I’ve got left to feel Nothing to lose Just stuck, hollow and alone And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own
I wanna heal, I wanna feel what I thought was never real I wanna let go of the pain I’ve felt so long Erase all the pain till it’s gone I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m close to something real I wanna find something I’ve wanted all along Somewhere I belong
And I’ve got nothing to say I can’t believe I didn’t fall right down on my face I was confused Looking everywhere only to find That it’s not the way I had imagined it all in my mind So what am I? What do I have but negativity ’Cause I can’t justify the way, everyone is looking at me Nothing to lose Nothing to gain, hollow and alone And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own
I wanna heal, I wanna feel what I thought was never real I wanna let go of the pain I’ve felt so long Erase all the pain till it’s gone I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m close to something real I wanna find something I’ve wanted all along Somewhere I belong
I will never know myself until I do this on my own And I will never feel anything else, until my wounds are healed I will never be anything till I break away from me I will break away, I'll find myself today
Separate Sifting through the wreckage I can't concentrate Searching for a message In the fear and pain Broken down and waiting For the chance to feel alive
Now in my remains Our promises that never came Set the silence free To wash away the worst of me
Come apart Falling in the cracks Of every broken heart Digging through the wreckage Of your disregard Sinking down and waiting For the chance to feel alive
Now in my remains Our promises that never came Set the silence free To wash away the worst of me
Well it's midnight, damn right, we're wound up too tight I've got a fist full of whiskey, the bottle just bit me Oh That shit makes me bat shit crazy We've got no fear, no doubt, all in balls out
We're going off tonight To kick out every light Take anything we want Drink everything in sight We're going till the world stops turning While we burn it to the ground tonight Oh
We're screaming like demons, swinging from the ceiling I got a fist full of fifties, tequila just hit me Oh We got no class, no taste, no shirt, and shit faced We got it lined up, shot down, firing back straight crown
We're going off tonight To kick out every light Take anything we want Drink everything in sight We're going till the world stops turning While we burn it to the ground tonight Oh
Ticking like a time bomb, drinking till the nights gone Well get you hands off of this glass, last call my ass Well no chain, no lock, and this train won't stop We got no fear, no doubt, all in balls out
We're going off tonight To kick out every light Take anything we want Drink everything in sight We're going till the world stops turning While we burn it to the ground tonight
God bless us everyone, We're a broken people living under loaded gun. And it can't be outfought, It can't be outdone, It can't be outmatched, It can't be outrun. No
God bless us everyone, We're a broken people living under loaded gun. And it can't be outfought, It can't be outdone, It can't be outmatched, It can't be outrun. No
And when I close my eyes tonight, To symphonies of blinding light
God bless us everyone, We're a broken people living under loaded gun. Oh
Like memories in cold decay, Transmissions echoing away, Far from the world of you and I, Where oceans bleed into the sky
There was nothing inside The memories left abandoned There was nowhere to hide The ashes fell like snow And the ground caved in Between where we were standing And your voice was all I heard That I get what I deserve
So give me reason To prove me wrong To wash this memory clean Let the floods cross The distance in your eyes Across this new divide
In every loss in every lie In every truth that you deny And each regret and each goodbye Was a mistake too great to hide And your voice was all I heard That I get what I deserve
So give me reason To prove me wrong To wash this memory clean Let the floods cross The distance in your eyes Give me reason To fill this hole Connect this space between Let it be enough to reach the truth that lies Across this new divide Across this new divide Across this new divide
Nothing ever stops all these thoughts and the pain attached to them Sometimes I wonder why this is happening It's like nothing I can do would distract me when I think of how I shot myself in the back again 'Cause from the infinite words I could say I Put all pain you gave to me on display But didn't realize instead of setting it free I Took what I hated and made it a part of me
Never goes away Never goes away
And now You've become a part of me You'll always be right here You've become a part of me You'll always be my fear I can't separate Myself from what I've done Giving up a part of me I've let myself become you
Hearing your name the memories come back again I remember when it started happening I see you in every thought I had and then The thoughts slowly found words attached to them And I knew as they escaped away I was committing myself to them and everyday I regret saying those things cuz now I see that I Took what I hated and made it a part of me
Circling your, circling your, circling your head, Contemplating everything you ever said Now I see the truth, I got doubt A different motive in your eyes and now I’m out See you later I see your fantasy, you want to make it a reality paved in gold See inside, inside of our heads (yeah) Well now that’s over I see your motives inside, decisions to hide
Back off I’ll take you on Headstrong to take on anyone I know that you are wrong Headstrong we’re headstrong Back off I’ll take you on Headstrong to take on anyone I know that you are wrong and this is not where you belong I can’t give everything away I won’t give everything away
You're flat on your face In a field fifty feet from a burning Cadillac At least you were thrown clear Cause I'm still stuck in here
I take off my shoes I let the flames crawl up and burn right through me I'm silent as a movie I always thought you knew me better
At least you were thrown clear Cause I'm still stuck in here At least you were thrown At least you were thrown clear I'm still stuck in here And I'm still stuck
So now you are hurt And you were sure I could not be hurt too And just because you're bleeding You think that I'm not bleeding And just because you're full of yourself Doesn't mean I'm not full of you
But at least you were thrown clear Cause I'm still stuck in here At least you were thrown clear At least you were thrown clear Cause I'm still stuck in here And I'm still stuck
And so we burn silently A silent light, a silent day And so we burn silently It just seems wrong
At least you were thrown At least you were thrown clear At least you were thrown
