A slow strangle with your feet on the floor
I′ve got 14 angels and we′re sleeping alone In the back of a cave, where the rest of us go To feel normal I call baby up. Leave me alone. I′m in pain but I won′t let you Band-Aid my wound I am mad at a stage where I can′t even handle my own (can′t even handle my) Give me a quiet mind and I... I love you You give me a quiet mind and I... I love you Until the end Until the end Give me strength to be kind... To combine All the good things in life that are so hard to find But I have and I won′t let them go like I do with my friends (my friends) Still hearing voices... From front... From behind They′re the reasons I choose... When to live... How to die When to cast... When to reel When to buy... When to steal When to fiend for the friends that taught you Being inappropriate will Give me a quiet mind and I I still love you You give me a quiet mind and I I love you You give me a quiet (quiet) mind and I I love you You give me a quiet mind and I (you give me) And I love you Until the end Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh |

How am I supposed to breathe?
I try to relax. I touch your still frame So I can watch you closer And study the ways I believe I belong to you I scratch at your waist line... your doll hair I dig up the thought of how your eyes glow So I make you my religion, my collision, an escape goat So have I found your secret weak spot, baby? [Chorus] Can you pretend I′m amazing? I can pretend I′m amazing... Instead of what we both know I cut to the punch line baby Can you pretend I′m amazing Instead of what we both know Now our history is for sale And for that I apoligize You see you′re my only know how The study of when I believe I belonged to you You see I′ve made you into something delicious, My sweet ghost So have I found your secret weak spot, baby? |

I changed my color for you
I shed my coat with caution I lack the beauty you display See here there are the bruises And some were self-inflicted And some showed up along the way So i nod my head Im ready for the world to see The secret i kept here inside the man you thought id be Slip into coma calm The coma where i calm myself down Here comes excuses why i let you down Stand by for another breakdown Sound off the alarm Is this the chameleon boy i swore i wouldnt become Chameleon boy Chameleon boy So now weve come upon the hardest thing ive ever done Its telling you that im a mess What sort of mess i mean Is self-destructive gasoline The kind that strips you of your best And while i play insteadthe way that most would end up dead You sleep alone at home and wish that i was in our bed With this im telling you My color changes back to blue How do i ask you this Will you help me through Stand by for another breakdown Sound off the alarm Is this the chameleon boy i swore i wouldnt become Stand by for another breakdown Sound off the alarm Is this the chameleon boy i swore i wouldnt become Chameleon boy Chameleon boy I try to think of all the people i look up to Or growing up who would i be Now the twisted part Whered all my idols end up They all passed away Passed away Stand by Its chameleon boy Stand by Its chameleon boy Chameleon Boy I′m chameleon boy...

The first born, my heart will call Truly
A God-like boy of the sky The fog hissed away like a movie And serpents go home for the night The thundercloud rain hits the freeway The clowns put on makeup for show The nightfall, my skin crawl kind of evening And how the wind she blows How the wind she blows [Chorus] I want you to come closer Come in closer. Come in closer. I want you to come in closer Come in closer. Come in closer. I want you to come in closer, in closer Come dancing with devils Need not to know their names We′ll waltz like an army For the fear of our pain Our souls become useless As the day they were born In a rusted arm rocking chair Away from your storm But still, the truth remains lethal A lie made by man Where my shoes become hammers And my words become sand Like a sour patch, a wedding batch Of roses you threw across my floor In the rusted arm rocking chair Away from your storm [Chorus] I really do |

In the day by day collision
Called the art of growing up There′s an innocence we look for in the stars To be taken back to younger days When there was no giving up On the people we held closest to our hearts Yeah it is you that I remember in that glowing It is you that took my first away from me It is you I set my standards to... to every walk of life I haven′t met another you since you were with me. [Chorus] A brief bout with a razorblade cut me I freaked out, thinking people didn′t love me I watched closely as the you I knew forgot me In letting go, I am so proud of what I′ve done In a way, I failed religion I spit the wine from mouth to cup And I reached for something more than just your God Uncle, you spared not your children And while your praying hands are up There′s no forgiveness for you! You sick fuck! It is you that I remember in their bedroom It is you that took their first away from them It is you they set their standards to You wounded them for life You were a preacher and suppose to be above men Sing with me [Chorus] A brief bout with a razorblade cut me I freaked out, thinking people didn′t love me I watched closely as the you I knew forgot me In letting go, I am so proud of what I′ve done |

I′m stuck in my ways to just run In the opposite way when things get comfortable I′ll keep on licking till your flavor is gone [Chorus] It′s getting more impossible To keep a straight face And be trusted with I love you Don′t trust my words when I′m in the bed with you I′ll bring the message, but the message gets lost Yeah you opened your legs and maybe I promised you You didin′t notice that my ankles were crossed [Chorus] Can you show me how to treat someone? I don′t recall ever learning how Because I keep fucking up I keep fucking up |

So you dropped me
Held me by my feet and let me go I fell between the seat, but nothing broke I′ve yet to feel that brilliant afterglow The one I knew of years ago Now I′m twisted Twisted from the waist and spun around Promised only sky but given ground Realized the makeup is for a clown The clown I knew of months ago [Chorus] I only wanted to be somebody So fucking bad, I came unglued I only wanted to be somebody So here we are now, face to face And I′m fucking you So you caught me! Wishing I were better than the rest You hit me and left bruises on my chest And when I wouldn′t cheat I spit upon your test The test I tore up weeks ago And now my fist is My fist is for your face to cock the jaw When I begin to rise, you start to fall Now you know how it feels to drop the ball The ball I threw back days ago [Chorus] So I′ll just stand right here for now I should have won, but how? I break a smart ass grin Who let the loser win? Let′s break a smart ass grin Let′s let the losers win! |

I must have sneezed
On knees I freeze I mean I just choked up Somehow I slept I dream, I mean I dreamt of nothing Able to breathe A sweet relief Now that you′re here with me A northern degree Dove into me Now I′m recovering [Chorus] I only want you to see My favorite part of me And not my ugly side Not my ugly side Hook up a C.B. Wave a way For conversation flow I′m shoved in your cave, to wage this rage Don′t let me go A kick and a scream is all that seems To mean a lot thus far I won′t let you on my stage, my page You can′t know Yet you have to know [Chorus] So calm... and now it′s dark I look for you to light my heart I′m in between the moon and where you are I know... I can′t be far |

I close my eyes and I smile Knowing that everything is alright To the core Close that door Is this happening? My breathe is on your hair I'm unaware That you opened the blinds and let the city in God, you held my hand As we stand Taking in everything. And I knew it from the start So my arms are open wide Your head is on my stomach And we're trying so hard not to fall asleep But Here we are On this 18th floor balcony... we're both flying away. We talked about mom's and dad's About family's pasts Getting to know where we came from Our hearts were on display For all to see I can't believe this is happening. I raised my hand as if to show you I was yours That I was so yours for the taking I'm still so your for the taking Thats when I felt the wind pick up I grabbed the rail while choking up These words to say and then you kissed me... I knew from the start So my arms are open wide And your head is on my stomach And we're trying so hard not to fall asleep But here we are On this 18th floor balcony... I knew from the start So my arms are open wide Your head is on my stomach And we're trying so hard not to fall asleep Here we are On this 18th floor balcony... we're both flying away. And I'll try to sleep to keep you in my dreams so I can bring you home with me and I'll try to sleep and you keeping you in my...dreams I knew it from the start My arms are open wide Your head is on my stomach We're not going to sleep But here we are On this 18th floor balcony...we're both.. flying away |

I try to stay on top of you
To hold your body down Your shaking seems to hinder Every grap that I have found Moving every inch around me To defuse your private bomb I stretch myself surrounding And protecting you from harm I use a wallet for your mouth So when you bite you will not bleed I drilled a wire through my cheek And let it down and out my sleeve And as your pulling out the best of me Yeah which never ever comes This wires all thats left of me And its hooked within my gums within my gums... So drill it, so drill it So hard Feel it [Kirk screaming] So drill it, so drill it So hard Feel it [Kirk screaming] Its proof to show that I bleed for this And ive cut myself the shame But to get to know this macicist Who has stolen my first name Pretending he's a teacher Holding all my weight at ease Yet the teacher seems to split in two Destroying both his knees Now crawling I position myself Below your broken wing I lift your featherd left arm Where you hide your heart for me I never noticed it was swolen With the touch of brutal pain I never knew a heart could live inside The rust from all your rain all your rain... So drill it, so drill it so hard feel it [Kirk screaming] So drill it, so drill it so hard feel it [Kirk screaming] I didnt think to bring a wash cloth And rub away the dirt Myself and I we share This barely beating heart of hurt And when the hurt comes theres an argument, A fight to save a smile A small attack on human tears To dry them for a while A dream we all should count on ; Yeah a vision i believe Where confidence is found Attached to wires on our sleeve Where lonelyness is history Told to pack your shit and leave Where guidance is a fortune Told to help in time of need And were crying emits secrets Its the art of how we greiv And lessons are the key To every goal I will acheive I will achieve So drill it, so drill it So hard Feel it [Kirk screaming] So drill it, so drill it So hard Feel it [Kirk screaming] So drill it, so drill it so hard feel it [Kirk screaming] So drill it, so drill it so hard feel it [Kirk sreaming] |

Blue october - Hate Me (M/V) I have to block out thoughts of you so I don't lose my head They crawl in like a cockroach leaving babies in my bed Dropping little reels of tape to remind me that I alone Playing movies in my head that make a porno feel like home There's a burning in my pride, a nervous bleeding in my brain An ounce of peace is all I want for you. Will you never call again? And will you never say that you love me just to put it in my face? And will you never try to reach me? It is I that wanted space Hate me today Hate me tomorrow Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you I sober now for 3 whole months it's one accomplishment that you helped me with The one thing that always tore us apart is the one thing I won't touch again In a sick way I want to thank you for holding my head up late at night While I was busy waging wars on myself, you were trying to stop the fight You never doubted my warped opinions on things like suicidal hate You made me compliment myself when it was way too hard to take So I'll drive so fucking far away that I never cross your mind And do whatever it takes in your heart to leave me behind Hate me today Hate me tomorrow Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you Hate me in ways Yeah ways hard to swallow Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you And with a sad heart I say bye to you and wave Kicking shadows on the street for every mistake that I had made And like a baby boy I never was a man Until I saw your blue eyes crying and I held your face in my hand And then I fell down yelling take it go away!? Just make a smile come back and shine just like it used to be And then she whispered how can you do this to me?? Hate me today Hate me tomorrow Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you Hate me in ways Yeah ways hard to swallow Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you |

Ever carried the weight of another?
For how long? I walk as far as they need to recover For how long? (ha!) I want to carry a piece of who I was before So when I hit the wall, I really hit the wall I want to tear away the death again A whiter shade of f**king meth again I want to stick to clues, I want to come unglued I want to shape the world to fit the way you move Oh, should I listen for a dress size? I owned up, I've grown up, do you remember me? I showed up and so what if I'm the used to be I'm here to tell you that I'm sorry I was sorry But I'm happy that you're happy This is no longer about me Trade rules, switch sides for your beautiful eyes Let him be you through your beautiful cries Let him hold you up so you can touch affordable skies Live your life just like a dream Without the pain of goodbyes Goodbye! Ever carried the weight of another? For how long? I walk as far as they need to recover For how long? I been a drunk disrespectful little street punk Unlock the back of my trunk You see, you take this bat And bash my head into the street again No-ones around so I keep beating it Pull my hair back, look me in the eye There's a self-destructive meaning in the bleeding of a guy It's the guilt of what reality has given me Making sense of all mistakes and my stupidity And when you're sick you seem to think You've failed eternally And that the people you let in are only crumbling When you're sick of thinking life in this recovery When my decision paved the road That lies in front of me So to my friends that even call but I don't call back I want you deep inside my heart upon a hill It seems to hide sometimes and run away and wonder I'm really sick of saying sorry but I will Ever carried the weight of another? For how long? I walk as far as they need to recover For how long? But are we scared to take the ride? Or dare to look inside? I'm floating far away (far away) I'm floating far away (leaving home) I'm floating far away (so far away) I'm floating far away I want to learn to walk with others as an equal I want to treat the ones who love me with respect I want to tell the world I'll give them all a piggyback And try to take away my negative effect I want to kiss the girl, I know I'll never lie again I want to call my dad and tell him that I care I want to let my brother know He saved my life a thousand times Throughout the years he's been my friend Who's always there Ever carried the weight of another?

Somewhere, far away from here
I saw stars, stars that I could reach (yeah) It was a midnight, a silent twilight Fell down, beyond the ocean beach (yeah) I assemble all the sand that cover wedding beaches To build a castle so your mom would have a place to stay Behind the water slide and down the hill where heaven reaches Land and time is left to float away (yeah) So rest assured I have the key to every opening To every wishing well deep thats enough to drink (drink) I want to show you just how fascinating kissing is When earth collides with all the space between (yeah) I'm reaching farther than I ever have before Leaving all who broke your heart upon the shore I may be some sort of crazy We may be some sort of crazy But I swear on everything I have and more So never look behind you, spooky people bring you down The world is ending there's a party by the bay I'll wear my suit and tie, would I and I toss into The way you put that smile upon my face (yeah) Fill up the air balloon and ride with me Yeah hell is just a parade (parade) Make love like time and space Is ending While befriending fade while luring way of putting us to shame I'm reaching farther than I ever have before Leaving all who broke your heart upon the shore I may be some sort of crazy We may be some sort of crazy But I swear on everything I have and more You make the sound of pulling heaven down You brought the rain's romantic pour You make the sound You make the sound Of pulling heaven down I'm reaching farther than I ever have before (god I've reached the top) Leaving all who broke your heart upon the shore I may be some sort of crazy We may be some sort of crazy But I swear on everything I have and more (go go go go) I'm reaching farther than I ever have before (god i've reached the top) Leaving all who broke your heart upon the shore I may be some sort of crazy We may be some sort of crazy But I swear on everything I have and more (go go go go) |

What if we could
Put our lives on Hold and meet some Where inside of the world I would meet you Would you meet me? 2, 3, 4... On a park bench On a skyscrape On a mountain Oh yeah, whatever it takes I would meet you Would you meet me? I'm glad to say that we've met But I'm sad to say that the circumstances where On our side So go on Go on be your own Go on be your own star What if we could? Where would we go? If it felt right Would you want me to know I would meet you Would you meet me It's like a last chance For a first dance You're a sunrise Can't somehow exist I would meet you Would you meet me I'm glad to say that we've met But I'm sad to say that the circumstances where On our side So go on Go on be your own Go on be your own star A simple star in my eyes In my eyes Look in my eyes Just look in my eyes My eyes My eyes!!! What if we could Put our lives on Hold and meet some Where inside of the world I would meet you Would you meet me? On a park bench On a skyscrape On a mountain Oh yeah, whatever it takes I would meet you Would you meet me? God I would God I would I would meet you Would you meet me I would meet you I would meet you I would meet you |

Relapse, prevent,
Trigger, intent Now drown High strung Say X amount of words You're solar, bipolar Panic disorder Seems harder and harder and harder Still you try to control it You mold, you mold Yeah you shape to mold Oh you're bold you're bold But your shape is bold You're a symptom superficial To what they call knowing you Minus the speed Could you imagine the phobia? Your brain is faulty wiring The reason for tiring Keep treating the curse Imagine the worst Systematic, sympathetic Quite pathetic, apologetic, paramedic Your heart is prosthetic A plate of quite peculiar On a dish of my own A tablespoon of feather Tickle me to the bone Give me recipes for happy With the chemicals gone Drinking freedom from a bottle To the tune of belong I'm sick of shaking Never waking From the hell I achieve I never knew you till you left me With the crying disease Another curing, reassuring Way to buckle the knees So mistreated, I repeated Never blessing your sneeze Now deleted and defeated I will stand on my own Yeah your memory that punches me Has broken the bone Give me recipes for sorry I'm admitting I'm wrong Still your memory that punches me Has broken the bone |

Some kind of light at the end I'm touching the edge of her skin Once so hard to speak Now so easy to play around Catching your eye you know That eye that slapped you in your face and called you a puppy Well how do you say I was hypnotized Hypnotized My words, they pour Like children to the playground Children to the playground You make me smile There's some kind of light at the end Stoned, forgetful, and then I'm drinking what used to be sin And touching the edge of her skin And could you be the one that's not afraid To look me in the eyes I swear I would collapse If I would tell how I think you fell From the sky Yeah my words, they pour Like children to the playground Children to the playground You make me smile There's some kind of light at the end Stoned, forgetful, and then I'm drinking what used to be sin And touching the edge of her skin There's some kind of light at the end Stoned, forgetful, and then I'm drinking what used to be sin And touching the edge of her skin It's the feeling I get My palms with sweat Like some kind of daydream I'll never forget I'm stuck in this spin Why does it begin By touching the edge of her skin There's some kind of light at the end Stoned, forgetful, and then I'm drinking what used to be sin And touching the edge of her skin There's some kind of light at the end Stoned, forgetful, and then I'm drinking what used to be sin And touching the edge of her skin |

I dreamt you seduced me
Just to walk away I dreamt you inspired Then rewired what I say I dreamt you spread your bottom wings And pulled me to the bed But then I woke up feeling nauseous You danced around my head [Chorus:] So tell me How long, how long have you been down? How long, how long have you been down? How long, how long have you been down? Down I dreamt you burned my fingers An automatic sting I dreamt you called me beautiful But asked to hear me sing I dreamt you sat, invited me To crawl within your space But then I woke up feeling nauseous Girl, you danced around my head [Chorus:] So tell me How long, how long have you been down? How long, how long have you been down? How long, how long have you been down? Down, down Why can't we work when we both try? We try, we try, we try Why can't we work, we both try? Why can't we work when we both try Try, try, we we we try I dreamt you seduced me Just to walk away I dreamt you inspired Then rewired what I say I dreamt you spread your bottom wings And pulled me to the bed But then I woke up feeling nauseous Girl, you danced around my head [Chorus:] Tell me How long, how long have we been down? How long, how long have we been down? How long, how long have we been down? Down, down, yeah So don't, don't get so far Oo, say again Oh, we been down How long have we been down? How long have we been down? How long have we been down? How long have we been down? How long have we been down? Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Yeah yeah |

Blue skies
Calling on blue skies Don't take them away, boys Don't take them away Cause I'll never stop loving my I've been to both knees Raise my hands up to the sky, forgive me Is something out there far beyond the clouds? I'm asking help me Help me to see the world Through baby eyes and hold me closely I need a fresh start on the roller coaster Made for coasting It's time to wake up, time to make up Time to shake these memories It's time to leave the past in the past And lace up a new set of shoestrings I want the world to know I've got your back Through up and down, see So we can sit together, side by side Through amazing Blue skies Calling on blue skies Don't take them away, boys Don't take them away Cause I'll never stop So I've broken every bone And fought through what felt never-ending I thought my head was made of sadness But my heart is mending I scream at sunsets Give applause to what I can't control Then somehow laugh at how The moon divides an ocean solo I wanna be that ocean I wanna shine like that I want to smile so big my daughter jumps into my lap And I wanna tell her daddy's fine And always plans to be Then take her in my arms This is what we'll always see Blue skies Calling on blue skies Don't take them away, boys Don't take them away Cause I'll never stop loving my Blue skies Calling on blue skies Never take them away, boys Don't take them away yeah And when I'm gone I won't go screaming in the end Cause I'll give you everything my life amounts to So raise this life up with me And baby, let's go dancing Come on lets rock! Blue skies Calling on blue skies Don't take them away, boys Never take them away Oh oh oh Whoa oh oh Whoa oh oh Don't take them away no, no, no |

I'm like a ghost
I'll be living in a dirt room Waiting for the day to be closer To the window in your home I'll be standing by your back door Reaching for the knife in my coat I'm gonna put it to your throat You sweaty piggy, you're a bad man What a fucking sad way to go Your mother raised you as a joke I should've wiped away her burden Used the curtain in the kitchen to choke you You think you own me You should've known me You took the future and the food off my family's plate You think you'll use me I'm stronger than you You take my money but it's useless When you see what I do to you (What I'm doing to you) Oh God, then you awoke You start screaming through the duct tape Don't ever think I'm letting you go I'm busy digging you a hole Now you'll be living in a dirt room Breathing through the straw of your own (come on!) I really think that this is fun for the money I'll make you comfy for the time wasted making you rich I want to cover you in ants, bees and honey Then take a picture for the cover of our album You think you own me You should've known me You took the future and the food off my family's plate You think you'll use me I'm stronger than you You take my money but it's useless When you see what I do to you You think you own me You should've known me You took the future, the food off my family's plate You think you'll use me But I'm stronger than you You take my money but it's useless When you see what I do to you And now I see it all ‘Cause your back's against the wall And finally you're mine You're mine (Come on!) You think you own me You should've known me You took the future and the food off my family's plate You think you'll use me I'm stronger than you You take my money but it's useless When you see what I do to you I really think that this is fun for the money I'll make you comfy for the time wasted making you rich I want to cover you in ants, bees and honey Then take a picture for the cover of our album |

Losing my control
Here it is the day I have to go Just sit beside me I cant let this show How sick I feel to leave you so alone God I'm terrified We've lost respect for decency When one can turn our world into an ant pile We run circles, no direction do I see The dust has blinded you, the dust has blinded me I kissed her on the cheek And then I waved goodbye She had the saddest look I've seen in years A kangaroo cry A warm pathetic ocean flow we have to live by We have to live by Because we have to live And you choose to break our families Tell me you've used all precautions known And I'll stand beside the ones who stood alone How long will we have to sing until you finally bring our sons, our daughters home? Well let the prayers start healing, what times been stealing We only want to feel as close as we can be Use hands for holding on to your precious family Just believe in all who shine The light to help you see Cause if I believe in you, will you believe in me? I kissed her on the cheek And then I waved goodbye She had the saddest look Ive seen in years A kangaroo cry A warm pathetic ocean flow we have to live by We have to live by Because we have to live And you choose to break our families Tell me you've used all precautions known And I'll stand beside the ones who stood alone How long will we have to sing until you finally bring our sons, our daughters home? Well let the prayers start healing, what times been stealing been stealing Keep hanging on Keep hanging on Keep hanging on Keep hanging on Well let the prayers start healing, when times been stealing Start healing Start healing |

Will you think about me, in time? It`s never my luck, So nevermind. I wanna say your name, But the pain starts again, It`s never my luck, So nevermind. Chorus: I had a dream that you where with me , And it wasn`t my fault, you roll me over, flipped me over, like a summersault. And that doesn`t happen to me I`ve never been here before I saw forever in my never, And i stood outside her Heaven. Will you wait for me, In time, It`s never my luck, So I`ll say: never mine. And i lost a lot of what i never expect to ever return I tend to push it `till the pushing turns from hurting to burn, I always take them to the place they always wanted to go, Then end up dancing `round this clown commands, applause at a show... Chorus: I had a dream that you where with me , And it wasn`t my fault, you roll me over, flipped me over, like a summer salt. And that doesn`t happen to me I`ve never been here before I saw forever in my never, And i stood outside her Heaven heaven, inside her heaven, heaven And i could only dream of you and sleep, but i won`t see sunlight again, i can try to be with you , but some how i`ll end up just losing a friend, And i can only reach for you relate to you, I`m losing my friend... Where did she go? where? Chorus: I had a dream that you where with me , And it wasn`t my fault, you roll me over, flipped me over, like a summer salt. And that doesn`t happen to me I`ve never been here before I saw forever in my never, And i stood outside her Heaven I stood outside her heaven(3x) Will you let me into your heaven? |

I really need to talk with you
I keep stepping on the vein That keeps my lifeline flowing thru I wanna be your perfect stick of glue But I don’t feel perfect at all Sad and insecure flaw I find it hard to hold conversation I get sweaty sick and I wanna walk away Its not you its strictly me in this situation I’m wondering will it ever go away…just go away sometimes I feel like weeping awake and when I’m sleeping perfecting how to put a game face on this puzzle I’ve been keeping has been in hiding creeping out the closet door spilling out onto the floor How long will I be picking up pieces How long will I be picking up my heart I’ll be as honest as I feel I’m getting more paranoid and I’m hearing things And they never turn out real It feels like my heart is made of pure steel It’s just so heavy all the time Yea I’m scared of death And I’m scared of living I gave up on the past cause it’s unforgiving I misplaced my trust I watched my word begin to rust I’m a balloon about to bust I need a place for reliving But sometimes I feel like weeping awake and when I’m sleeping perfecting how to put a game face on this puzzle I’ve been keeping has been in hiding creeping out the closet door spilling out onto the floor How long will I be picking up pieces How long will I be picking up my heart How long (in another space and time) Will I be picking up pieces in the corner of my mind How long (its getting oh so hard to find) Keep picking up pieces in the corner of my mind But I still walk on |

It's all about steam, it's all about dreams
It's all about making the best out of everything You'll know when you're fine, 'cause you'll talk like a mime You'll fall on your face, you get back up Man, you're doing fine A considerate clown, a preachy preaching machine is one of the sweetest things you would say about me But I don't have the time for your distorted esteem Why are you toying with my... mind?

Well I confess you were too much stress I'd have a heart attack at best So now I breathe it out, I breathe it out and I spit it on the crowd As they lift me up, they lift me up They lift me up when I'm feeling down What am I spitting out, spitting out, Something we never talk about? It's called my... mind I don't wanna hear you say-say-say-say-say-say-say-say it I don't wanna hear you say-say-say-say-say-say it I don't wanna hear you say-say-say-say-say-say-say-say it Now you're messing with my... pride Well, I'm sick of standing in your line So now you'll have to take it Take this to heart I will never let you fuck me over Stop talking down to me Your war is old, your game is over So here's my coldest shoulder I don't wanna hear you say-say-say-say-say-say-say-say it I don't wanna hear you say-say-say-say-say-say it I don't wanna hear you say-say-say-say-say-say-say-say it Now you're messing with my... pride My pride...

Here alone, standing barefoot in our lawn,
Worms squeezing their way through my toes Tonight that's how it goes. I'm at your window kneeling quiet, I thought at least I'd maybe try to get your head right your heart right "Let him go!" Then through the glass I see your dress fall to the floor as he embraces every inch of you The woman I adore. I can't believe the way you're bending Can't believe this neverending moaning asking him for more Begging him for more How far will I go to make it feel right? "Come home" I have to fix this on my own Replace my heart, Cause I'm convinced mine broke the day I let us end Replace my heart, I don't wanna live by coping, I'm done with hoping.....end I creeped in close enough to see the way he touched her, From her feet across her knees, inside her sweetest spot He pleased and pleased her. I turned around and tried to take control, but no control was capable It was a centerfold of how less than low can possibly go. I squeezed the life into my brain Like pushing knives into a vein I've gotta get, I said I've gotta get inside So to the back window I crawl in silent Standing in the darkness of my living room This used to be my home How far will I go to make it feel right? "Come home" I'm moving forward to the bedroom door Replace my heart Cause I'm convinced mine broke the day I let us end Replace my heart I don't wanna live by coping, I'm done with hoping...end I turn the doorknob with two fingers to be slow enough to sneak into the room among the corner darkness gloom I had to see this happening. He pushed himself so deep inside her clapping rang and bounced off every wooden walled room And that's when all went silent blank except for the color red As I walked calmly numbing paralyzed beside the bed I said "I know I'm not allowed to be here. I just had to see how good your new man really fucks you. Cause you both been fucking me." "So now I planned the last thing you can both do as a pair I tie both blindfolds tight around your fucking eyes to blind your stare I don't want to alarm you, but I figured we could end this in what seems easy quick and painless Man, so I'll get down to business I choose you first, there's a gun, it's at your head So laugh at me one more time but keep your face inside the bed You sit and watch me while I do this shit and learn from what I've said." I cocked the pistol pulled the trigger, and all I saw was red How far will I go to make it feel right? "Come home" I have to fix this on my own Then the screaming oh the screaming It's nice to see you scared Of such a weak and stupid husband Who knows you never really cared I'll leave you with a question that I need to hear from your head Was all this worth it knowing you have just seconds left to live? Now think about your answer, as you lay face down on the bed I cocked the pistol pulled the trigger and all I saw was red I gently stroke her arm as she lies lifeless on her back Then placed the barrel in my mouth All I saw was black. |

A blackout in the room again a busted lip and broken skin. I wake up in the bathroom and dare not bother asking why the mirror's craked and all I see are shards of glass inside of me. There's voices there to dare me, my father's here to scare me. and My mother she sits beyond the door she's curled up crying on the floor, look at what her son's done. When the weight of all the world's gone wrong. wrong again. Gone fucking wrong again. Well liars they leave a guilty trail. let me tell you I've been lying for years. That must be why I'm standing in this space. constantly over and over Im Disregarding that I've created these monsters that are on both of my sides, So I wipe the blood from both of their eyes. From all four of their eyes. And while I wait for wounds to heal I see you by the window sil, your heart's torn out a plastic spoon when honesty lit up that room so I stole the pillowcase to clean this mess I've made of someones dream. Now you've seen what I've done, when the weight of all the world's gone wrong again gone fucking wrong again. This room is old and wise and I fall onto the bed and wonder, "How did I get here?" I was a little boy who would argue with a tree go ahead thump his head he'll turn back to normal. Now why is that what I see? Don't bother trusting me don't bother waiting don't bother changing things that won't give into changing just let me go away. I'm packed down whenever. Let's go. Let's really really go. |
