You take this all for granted. All the things that used to be you. By keeping you distracted just long enough to bleed you.
A reason for your anger, it′s what I need, it′s what I need. To recognize the truth it′s what I need, it′s what I need. So burn your paper Jesus its what I need, it′s what I need, and all the things you do, its what I need, its what I need.
Don′t believe what they tell you, all the lies that they are teaching, when the make the corporations all the desperate people stealing.
Somebody chose these words for you. Interpretations of the truth. Somewhere behind your fear they hide. To fill the holes inside.
I can′t believe how far I′ve come Watch me stumble and come undone If you take away, these memories All that′s left, is just me
[Chorus:] ′Cause I don′t want this And I don′t take this anymore And I don′t feel this It seems that even though she′s with me I can′t shake this I can′t fake this And I won′t take this anymore
So you choose to break my heart I should have seen this from the start I′m haunted by your apathy All that′s left is killing me
[Chorus]
Do you believe that the way you choose to be I′ve always had to see The brighter side of this so I don′t lose my faith Now the sun has gone away It′s getting colder everyday So before I freeze to death there′s something I should say
I don′t want this I don′t take this anymore And I don′t feel this It seems that even though she′s with me I can′t shake this And I can′t fake this And I won′t take this anymore
And though you say you understand you still won′t face this Can′t erase this I won′t embrace this anymore
I just need this to be all right I can′t feel this another night
I can′t take this I come unglued I might breakdown in front of you Necessary to medicate I′m not sleeping can′t stay awake
Can′t see through this Too much pressure Drowning in this
Too much pressure If you need me I′ll be here Half unconscious to escape my fear
My head hurts this shit isn′t getting me high My chest is so tight I think I am going to die My stomach′s in knots and the room starts to spin As I wait for this valium to slowly kick in
Are you afraid, afraid of the truth In the mirror staring back at you. The image is cracked but so is the view, here. And the strength of a tree begins in the roots That I tend bury into you At least now the storm can′t blow me away.
So crawl inside my head with me. I′ll show you how it feels to be, To blame like me.
Should I be afraid of this face that I see In the mirror staring back at me? So cold were the days when I listened to you. And you say that I′m weak so show me the proof Because I still exist in spite of you But I won′t compete with you every day.
So crawl inside my head with me. I′ll show you how it feels to be, To blame like me.
Schizophrenic conversations that I′m always having with myself. I hear these voices in my head competing. Maybe I could use a little help I still have schizophrenic conversations Where there′s no one else around to hear. I long for solitude and peace within me Void of all the anger and the fear.
So crawl inside my head with me. I′ll show you how it feels to be, Fucked up like me.
I′ll show you how it feels to be To blame like me Ashamed like me
You in your shell are you waiting for someone to rescue you from yourself. Don′t be disappointed when no one comes.
Don′t blame me you didn′t get it [3x]
I already told you, that falling is easy it′s getting back up that becomes the problem, becomes the problem If you don′t believe that you can find a way out you become the problem, become the problem.
Don′t blame me you didn′t get it [3x]
You, all alone, are you waiting for someone to make you whole? Can′t you see aren′t you tired of this dysfunctional routine.
I already told you, that falling is easy it′s getting back up that becomes the problem, becomes the problem If don′t you believe that you can find a way out you you solve the problem, solve the problem.
Falling is easy it′s getting back up that becomes the problem, becomes the problem And if you believe you can find a way out Then you′ve solved the problem, you′ve solved your problem.
Misery The company it keeps Is for me All these things We keep repeating
Like a wheel That keeps turning If I could break away From this moment Break away What is real Never showing Break away How I feel If I could break away
Apathy The ignorance it brings The tragedy Of all these things We keep repeating
Like a wheel That keeps turning If I could break away From this moment Break away What is real Never showing Break away How I feel If I could break away
Break away If I could break away Just break away If I could break away From this moment Break away What is real Break away Never showing Break away How I feel If I could break away If I could break away If I could break away
We change the rhyme Forget the reason Waiting for the Change of season Drawing near It′s almost here So save tonight Forget tomorrow Say goodbye To time we borrowed It′s always there It′s in the air
Like voices in the rain Like a song without a name Like angel′s wings And whisperings Of love we lost And found along the way
Do you take the time To really wollow In the footsteps That you follow Gets you where Gets you anywhere So here today And gone tomorrow With the time you Had to borrow It′s always there It′s in the air
Like voices in the rain Like a song without a name Like angel′s wings And whisperings Of love we lost And found along the way
Like voices in the rain Like a song without a name Like angel′s wings And whisperings Of time we lost And found out in the rain Like a song without a name Like angel′s wings And whisperings Of love we lost Of love we lost And found along The way
I′m one stop From a breakdown Two steps from Being safe Just try to See this through I′m three steps From this nightmare And four steps From the door The rest is Up to you
Pardon me while I Just turn my back And walk away Pardon me if I Can′t listen To the things You say Pardon me if I Can′t fake it While you still believe Pardon me
I′m one step From forgiveness And two steps From my grave We′re all just Passing through Three steps From redemption Four from the Devil′s door On a path That leads to you
Pardon me while I Just turn my back And walk away Pardon me if I Can′t listen To the things You say Pardon me if I Can′t fake this While you still believe Pardon me
Pardon me while I Just turn my back And walk away Pardon me if I Can′t listen To the things You say Pardon me if I Can′t fake it While you still believe Pardon me
I′m two steps From salvation But i′m only Taking one Pardon me
thank you to the people in my life for putting up with me and thank you for the time you sacrificed all on account of me
[chorus]
for all the times i didn′t say the times i didn′t say for all the times i didn′t say the times i didn′t say
fuck you to the jaded and the fake like to see what you would do fuck you and the judgements you make we′re not all perfect just like you, like you, like you
[chorus]
all the times i didn′t say [x2] thank you to the people in my life for putting up with me
I′m still scared. Afraid of failing Anticipating, the ride to end. before the wheels begin to move.
(Run away) So I can hide. (Run away) I′ve mastered feeling nothing. (Run away) I′m dead inside. (Run away) Why don′t I care?
Waste my time, commiserating, Self medicating - it′s my design Although I know you don′t approve
(Run away) So I can hide. (Run away) I′ve mastered feeling nothing. (Run away) I′m dead inside. (Run away) Why don′t I care?
The truth is that I′m not so good At showing how I feel. Or keeping my mouth shut When there′s something to conceal. Or knowing how to love, Love′s not in my memories How can I rise above All my insecurities
(Run away) So I can hide. (Run away) I′ve mastered feeling nothing. (Run away) I′m dead inside. (Run away) Why don′t I care?
(Run away) I fight the tide (Run away) The ebb and flow consuming (Run away) Still by my side (Run away) Why should you care?
the lights are on but you′re not home you′ve drifted off somewhere alone somewhere that′s safe, no questions here a quiet place where you hide from your fears
[chorus]
sometimes when you′re out of rope the way to climb back up′s unclear the walls you build around yourself i guess they also keep you here are you afraid of what they think? whoever "they" happen to be or are you hiding from the scars of your own reality?
so you sedate and drown in vain you′ve got a pill for every day a suit and tie to mask the truth its ugly head is starthing to show through
[chorus]
[bridge]
the monster you′re feeding, your lack of perception the things that you do to fullfill your addictions the light at the end of your tunnel is closing what is it that you′re so afraid of exposing? you′d give it all up for what′s theirs for the taking whatever it takes to keep your hands from shaking the same things you′re thinking might make you feel better the same things that probably get you here
i heard today that you were gone i had to stop and sing along the song they played to say goodbye a song they gave, give me back life
[chorus]
you′ll never fade the words you gave my life you saved your name was layne and on that day a child was born to someone who you helped along and helped see through his darkest times because of you, this child she is mine
[chorus]
[bridge]
the words you said, you made me feel like they were all for me the words you said, they will always be a part of me the words you said, you made me feel like i was not alone the words you said, you gave me all the strength to carry on
[chorus (altered)]
so to me you′ll never fade your life you gave my life you saved your name was layne
Failed to see, How destructive we can be. Taking without giving back, ′Til the damage can be seen, Can you see? Can you see?
The more you take, The more you blame, But everything still feels the same. The more you hurt, The more you strain, The price you pay to play the game, Then all you see, And all you gain, And all you step on with no shame, There are no rules, No one to blame, The price you pay to play the game.
Apathy, the chosen way to be, Blindly look the other way, While you waste away with me, Can you see? Can you see?
The more you take, The more you blame, But everything still feels the same. The more you hurt, The more you strain, The price you pay to play the game, Then all you see, And all you gain, And all you step on with no shame, There are no rules, No one to blame, The price you pay to play the game.
What you pay to play the game, What you pay to play the game, What you pay to play the game, What you pay to play the game.
The more you take, The more you blame, But everything still feels the same. The more you hurt, The more you strain, The price you pay to play the game, Then all you see, And all you gain, And all you step on with no shame, There are no rules, No one to blame, The price you pay to play the game.
What you pay to play the game, What you pay to play the game, What you pay to play the game, What you pay to play the game.
you don′t know what you′ve put me through it′s okay, i′ve forgiven you but in some way, hope it fucks with you hope it fucks with you
[pre-chorus] that i′m okay and i′ve made it through but who′s to say what you′re going through i′ll say no names, though i′ve wanted to isn′t it strange how it seems like...
[chorus] yesterday, a boy and already afraid locked deep inside, my place to hide to hide from how you made me feel and i wonder how′s your brother did he end up fucked up like me? lost in himself, crying for help it′s safe to say i learned to live without a pride just a shell, with me stuck on the inside a prison, not a place to hide not a place to hide
[pre-chorus]
[chorus] [chorus (altered)]
yesterday, a boy and already afraid locked deep inside, my place to hide to hide from how you made me feel and i wonder how′s your brother did he finally pull through like me? finding himself, not needing help i′d like to say
Shards of broken pieces Shattered on the floor Its not enough to bleed
Tears and angry voices Cracks around the door No apologies
And every time you say you love me I just have to stop and catch my breath How can somebody love something like me If you could only say your sorry There is nothing in this world I can′t forget Waiting here for you to set me free
Toys and colored pencils Scattered on the floor Underneath my feet
You′re always crying over nothing You′re always wanting more You never go to sleep
But every time you say you love me I just have to stop and catch my breath How can somebody love something like me And every time I feel im falling She′ll be there to save me from myself Little angel watching over me
Our taxis in the driveway Our bags are at the door And it still kills me to leave
But every time you say you love me I just have to stop and catch my breath How can somebody love something like me And every time I feel im falling Your the one′s who saved me from myself You give me something to believe
And with you here These cracks and tears Fade away
The more you see the more you do The television′s feeding you. with what You want to hear, anger and fear, because you suffer
The hate you feel won′t go away you′re all programmed to Feel this way to live another day within a world That loves to suffer
And then I come to find everything′s o.k. seen this all Before but that was yesterday. I try to walk right Through the messes that I′ve made just let me enjoy The life here that I′ve made
I′ve tried to give it all to you. can′t take anymore to do With this. it hurts inside. I know why I hide ′cause I suffer
I tried to keep it all inside didn′t leave me too much Pride forced it all down inside forced myself to make Me suffer
And then I come to find everything′s o.k. seen this all Before but that was yesterday. I try to walk right Through the messes that I′ve made just let me enjoy The life here that I′ve made
Well I want you to notice To notice when I′m not around And I know that your eyes see straight through me And speak to me without a sound
[Chorus:] I want to hold you Protect you from all of the things I′ve already endured I want to show you Show you all the things that this life has in store for you I′ll always love you The way that a father should love his daughter
When I walked out this morning I cried as I walked to the door I cried about how long I′d be away for I cried about leaving you all alone
[Chorus]
Sweet Zoe Jane [x2]
So I wanted to say this Cuz I wouldn′t know where to begin To explain to you what I have been through To explain where your daddy has been
i just had to let you know cuz i don′t always let it show you give me needed room to grow and i just had to tell you so
[chorus]
you fill me up, you′re in my veins a look could take my breath away and all these things, you give away sometimes i take for granted it′s just like poetry inside to hear you breathing by my side like i′m in heaven and i′ve died so glad you′re with me for this ride
[chorus]
i see your face to start my day makes all my bad dreams go away and all the stupid games we play wouldn′t have it any other way
well i don′t know what to say because there′s truth to what you say i know it kills you i′m this way there′s something different every day
[chorus]
could it be that i never had the chance to grow inside? Could it be that my habit is to find a place to hide? could it be that sometimes i say things just to disagree? could it be that i′m only being me?
not easy living in my mind a little peace is hard to find my every thought is undermined by all the history inside
[chorus]
[bridge]
i know i hear the words you said over and over again i just can′t get them through my head there′s just too many voices must be like living with the dead waiting for me to begin to do the things i have said and for this i′m sorry so there′s some truth to what you say
i know that it never goes away all i feel, everything i′m not today so i try and i try to make everything right i don′t feel like i′m doing it, it affects me
[chorus]
you wouldn′t listen even if i told you who the fuck am i to say? you′re too busy with the lies they sold you another cure to fix your day open wide for all the shit they feed you while the TV defecates and blindly walk wherever they will lead you while the edges slowly fray
i know that everything can change what i need is to open up again so never again will i look back in vain cuz today′s not the past, i don′t need to relive it
[chorus]
are you satisfied? i′ve given all i can and are you pacified or do you want more from me?
[chorus]
i′ve learned that this life′s not just a game just a line between the pleasures and the pain
It sheltered me from nothing but the weather I called it home for a moment of my life This place I see just doesn′t look familiar I wonder if it looks the same inside
So there′s the corner that I sat on The road I walked home in the rain And there′s the star I used to wish on It all just seems like yesterday
Days go by Nothing′s getting clearer Can′t change my mind My troubles are the same Faces change The names they are familiar And the streets I see Will stand the test of time
So there′s the corner that I sat on The road I walked home in the rain And there′s the star I used to wish on It all just seems like yesterday
And those stars Stars still shine Shine down through the rain
And there′s the corner that I sat on The road I walked home in the rain And there′s the star I used to wish on It all just seems like yesterday
And I stare out this dirty window As this world goes slowly by And somewhere out there is the future That I once thought had passed me by
What′s happened to you? It′s obvious you′ve changed Something deep inside you is probably to blame Must be lonely up there with your head up in the clouds Even though you got there what does your conscience tell you now?
[Chorus:] It′s never the same on the way down How does it feel when your feet finally hit the ground? When all of your bridges aren′t around And the sandcastles you built are falling down
You had us all sitting right there in your hand But you had to fall because that′s how this life is Got your fingers burned by burning candles at both ends Now the table′s turned and now your demons are your freinds
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
So now I question what you′re gonna do Now that everything′s gone with you You believe the shit you say is true But everybody′s on to you Life remembers everything you do Your karma has caught up with you
Another day inside my world Im married to you and this road This road that do not let me sleep So theres no way to escape these demons I am forced to keep Then I find, you here Thru your eyes everythings clear And I′m home inside your arms But I′m alone for now I mean the best with what I say It doesnt always sound that way I never learned to work things out Cuz in my family all we ever seemed to do is shout Then I find, you here Thru your eyes everythings clear And I′m home inside your arms But I′m alone for now And when I try to sleep The drugs I take are killing me I think of you to ease my pain But you′re so far And now it′s time to say goodbye I love you baby, please don′t cry Then I find, you here Thru your eyes everythings clear And I′m home inside your arms But I′m alone for now
if someone else showed you the way would you take the wheel and steer? it hurts me that you′re not ashamed of what you′re doing here if they jumped off a bridge would you meet them on the ground? or would you try and claim that it never made a sound
[Chorus] everyone plays the hand they′re dealt and learns to walk through life themselves not everything in life is handed on a plate when people think your words are true it doesn′t matter what you do i sold my soul to get here how ′bout you?
so you choose to force your hand what a strange way to make friends and you always change the rules so the drama never ends and you blindly go through life judging only by its worth just try not to forget that the meek inherit earth
[Chorus]
so please don′t take offense this is just a point of view cuz i′m the only one who will say these things to you
I sit alone and watch the clock Trying to collect my thoughts All I think about is you And so I cry myself to sleep And hope the devil I don′t meet In the dreams that I live through
Believe in me I know you′ve waited for so long Believe in me Sometimes the weak become the strong Believe in me This life is not always what it seems Believe in me Cause I was made for chasing dreams
All the smiles you had to fake And all the shit you had to take Just to lead us here again I never have the things to say To make it all just go away To make it all just disappear
Believe in me I know you′ve waited for so long Believe in me Sometimes the weak become the strong Believe in me This life is not always what it seems Believe in me Cause I was made for chasing dreams
Its my life Its my choice Hear my words Hear my voice And just believe
I sit alone and watch the clock Trying to collect my thoughts And all I think about is you
If you believe in me Life is not always what it seems Believe in me Cause I was made for chasing dreams
Believe in me I know you′ve waited for so long Believe in me Sometimes the weak become the strong Believe in me This life is not always what it seems Believe in me Cause I was made for chasing dreams
This dark road Another cigarette I′m getting sick of this The end is near I′m in the thick of it And i′ll be there soon If you can handle it
Just save me From all that I am You save me For the f**k of it Save me Just hold out your hand You save me From all of it
I try to speak myself You can do it too I need no one′s help I′m needing only you So just pray for me And deliver it You never take from me What i′m giving
Just save me From all that I am You save me For the f**k of it Save me Just hold out your hand You save me From all of it
And all that i′ve become Is you The only good in me Is you And after all of this The day will come to find out Will you take me Or forsake me So pray for me Am I forgiven For what you take from me
Just save me From all that I am You save me For the f**k of it Save me Just hold out your hand You save me From all of it Come save me
this is my life its not what it was before all these feelings i′ve shared and these are my dreams that i′d never lived before somebody shake me ′cause i i must be sleeping
[chorus] now that we′re here, it′s so far away all the struggle we thought was in vain all the mistakes, one life contained they all finally start to go away now that we′re here its so far away and i feel like i can face the day i can forgive and i′m not ashamed to be the person that i am today
these are my words that i′ve never said before i think i′m doing okay and this is the smile that i′ve never shown before
somebody shake me ′cause i i must be sleeping
[chorus]
i′m so afraid of waking please don′t shake me afraid of waking please don′t shake me
Here we are Theres nowhere else to go And thats so far From where we all could be But you can′t feel my disappearing And you should take this for what it′s worth
This is it And it fits And it feels like this is good enough for me Could it be That the grass is always green?
There you are You dream of something better What′s so wrong With what you thought was true and All the colors are disappearing But you should take this for what it′s worth
This is it And it fits And it feels like this is good enough for me Could it be That the grass is always green?
This is it (this is it) This is it (this is it)
If you feel like disappearing You should take this for what it′s worth
This is it And it fits And it feels like this is good enough for me Could it be That the grass is always green?
Twisting, turning, crashing, burning, All this just to break me down.
You don′t know me You don′t see me You don′t own me because I don′t care. But I′m still here, Patiently waiting for you to disappear. Is this my cross to bear?
Faceless, faking, pushing, taking, All this just to bring me down.
[x1] You don′t know me you don′t see me you don′t own me because I don′t care. But I′m still here, Patiently waiting for you to disappear. Is this my cross to bear?
You don′t know me, You don′t own me cause I′m aware. And I′m still here, Patiently waiting for you to disappear. Is this my cross to bear?
I′m still here, Reluctantly waiting for you to interfere. This is my cross to bear
A piece of glass In the sand under your feet It cuts you deep And makes you hate the beauty That you see And you wonder where you are How you ever got so far Now you question what went wrong It′s your heart
It′s raining again There′s a dark cloud Over your head It follows you ′round It′s bringing you down It′s raining It′s raining again
A wilted rose Your decay is all you see You buy the flaws And miss the beauty That is yours for free Realize you are so far From the things that matter now And you only wonder how It′s your heart
It′s raining again There′s a dark cloud Over your head It follows you ′round It′s bringing you down It′s raining It′s raining again
Come on Come on get it right Come on Come on make it right Come on Come on it′s alright
It′s raining again There′s a dark cloud Over your head It follows you ′round It′s bringing you down It′s raining It′s raining again
It′s raining Raining again There′s a dark cloud Over your head
She sits alone again And tries her best not to pretend That all she used to live for Was the love that wasn′t there
And every time she needs to do the things That she believes Will fill the void inside of her Because he was never there
[2x] And she says, ′I swear I′m not the devil, Though you think I am. I swear I′m not the devil′
He tries to sleep again And wonders when the pain will end The cuts, they may run deeper than his cracking outer shell
He looks with tired eyes At all the people hypnotized And wonders what will save him From his self created hell.
[2x] And he says, ′I swear I′m not the devil, Though you think I am. I swear I′m not the devil′
I always fail to see the little things in front of me The things that mean so much to you; a way to let you know. That I appreciate the way you always tolerate But sometimes when I medicate Frustration in you shows me how you feel.
But I swear I′m not the devil, Though you think I am. I swear I′m not the devil
And I scream, I swear I′m not the devil. Though you think I am. I swear I′m not the devil.
I have seen to many sad eyes look at me, Eyes that set me free, All the places that I′ve been.
Thank you for the letters that you thought you wrote in vain And for the times you chose to stand out in the rain and wait for me, For me.
Your words, Your words help me to see A little honesty In a world that doesn′t share And your eyes Tell the story of your pain Severity of your disdain In a world that doesn′t care.
So thank you for the letters that you thought you wrote in vain And for the times you chose to stand out in the rain and wait
You, you understand my pain. From this I gather strength, In that we are the same.
So thank you for the letters that you thought you wrote in vain And for the times you chose to stand out in the rain and wait
The life I live will never be the same without you here
I′m not very good at just paying attention I′m not very good at remembering things that you say I′m not very good at persuing redemption I′m not very good at concealing the hand that I play
[chorus] It′s the way I am, you′ll never change The way I am, or re arrange The way I am, just let me be The way I am, it′s the way I am
I′m not really sure of the coming attractions I′m not really sure of the illusions we read on the wall I′m not really sure of the preaching we practice I′m not really sure if we notice it before we fall
[chorus] It′s the way I am, you′ll never change The way I am, or re arrange The way I am, just let me be The way I am, it′s the way I am
I′m not very good at just paying attention I′m not very good at remembering things I′m not very good at pursuing redemption I′m not very good at concealing the hand that I play
When I′m trying so hard just to beat you I′m not really good at controlling my fate I′m not really good at controlling my anger I′m not really good at subduing my hate I′m not really good [x3]
[chorus] It′s the way I am, you′ll never change The way I am, or re arrange The way I am, just let me be The way I am, it′s the way I am
Can′t you see that I′m sick of this? Chances are you′re oblivious to how I feel Sitting on your throne, and I′m sure that I′m not alone, Not alone, not alone.
Tell me please, Who the fuck did you want me to be? Was it something that I couldn′t see? Never knew this would be so political. And please, I′m still wearing this miserable skin And it′s starting to tear from within But it′s obvious that doesn′t bother you, so please
I didn′t think that you′d sell me out Now I know what you′re all about. You might feel in control of things. But you′re not holding all the strings. All the strings, all the strings.
Tell me please, Who the fuck did you want me to be? Was it something that I couldn′t see? Never knew this would be so political. And please, I′m still wearing this miserable skin And it′s starting to tear from within But it′s obvious that doesn′t matter to you, So please
I′ve swallowed all your answers I′ve swallowed all my pride You′ve used up all your chances Can′t keep this all inside
Tell me please, Who the fuck did you want me to be? Was it something that I couldn′t see? Never knew this would be so political. And please, I′m still wearing this miserable skin And it′s starting to tear from within But it′s obvious that doesn′t bother you
So please don′t keep telling me that it′s ok I don′t buy all the shit that you say And quite honestly I′m fucking sick of it so please if I cut off this nose from my face Then I wouldn′t feel so out of place But it still wouldn′t be quite enough for you, so please.
To my mother to my father It′s your son or it′s your daughter Are my screams loud enough for You to hear me? should I turn this up for you?
I sit here locked inside my head Remembering everything you′ve said The silence gets us nowhere, Gets up nowhere way too fast.
The silence is what kills me I need someone here to help me But you don′t know how to listen And let me make my decision
I sit here locked inside my head Remembering everything you′ve said The silence gets us nowhere, Gets up nowhere way too fast.
All your insults and your curses Make me feel like I′m not a person. And I feel like I am nothing. But you made me so do something. Cause I′m fucked up because you are I need attention, attention you couldn′t give.
I sit here locked inside my head Remembering everything you′ve said The silence gets us nowhere, Gets up nowhere way too fast.
I sit here locked inside my head Remembering everything you′ve said The silence gets us nowhere, Gets up nowhere way too fast.
I know I′ve been mistaken But just give me a break and see the changes that I′ve made I′ve got some imperfections But how can you collect them all and throw them in my face
But you always find a way to keep me right here waiting You always find the words to say to keep me right here waiting And if you chose to walk away I′d still be right here waiting Searching for the things to say to keep you right here waiting
I hope you′re not intending To be so condescending it′s as much as i can take and you′re so independent you just refuse to bend so I keep bending till I break
But you always find a way to keep me right here waiting You always find the words to say to keep me right here waiting And if you chose to walk away I′d still be right here waiting Searching for the things to say to keep you right here waiting
I′ve made a commitment I′m willing to bleed for you I needed fulfillment I found what I need in you
Why can′t you just forgive me I don′t want to relive all the mistakes I′ve made along the way But I always find a way to keep you right here waiting I always find the words to say to keep you right here waiting
But you always find a way To keep me right here waiting You always find the words to say to keep me right here waiting And if I chose to walk away would you be right here waiting Searching for the things to say to keep me right here waiting
As I walk along these streets I see a man that walks alone Distant echo of people′s feet He has no place to call his own A shot rings out from a roof overhead A crackhead asks for change nearby An old man lies in an alleyway dead A little girl lost just stands there and cries
What would you do, if it was you Would you take everything For granted like you do
A boy just 13 on the corner for sale Swallows his pride for another hit Overpopulation there′s no room in jail But most of you don′t give a shit That your daughters are porno stars And your sons sell death to kids You′re so lost in your little worlds Your little worlds you′ll never fix
You turn away As I walk along the streets Soaking up the acid rain Underneath the taxi cabs I hear the streets cry out in vain
You′re my world The shelter from the rain You′re the pills That take away my pain You′re the light That helps me find my way You′re the words When I have nothing to say
And in this world Where nothing else is true Here I am Still tangled up in you I′m still tangled up in you Still tangled up in you
You′re the fire That warms me when i′m cold You′re the hand I have to hold as I grow old You′re the shore When I am lost at sea You′re the only thing That I like about me
And in this world Where nothing else is true Here I am Still tangled up in you I′m still tangled up in you
How long has it been Since this storyline began And I hope it never ends And goes like this forever
In this world Where nothing else is true Here I am Still tangled up in you Tangled up in you I′m still tangled up in you Still tangled up in you
It′s 3 AM, It′s cold outside, and you can′t sleep. Is it from your conscience talking, to the skeletons you keep? Every time you try to speak, only craziness comes out. But she can′t turn the other cheek, and you can′t help how it comes out.
So when did you decide, to embrace what you hate to survive? Cuz that′s not what got us here.
It′s 8 AM and still no sleep, but you don′t care. I don′t know why I keep on calling, doesn′t get us anywhere. Cuz every time I try to speak, it never let my words come out. I can′t turn the other cheek, and I can′t help how this comes out.
So when did you decide, to embrace what you hate to survive? Cuz that′s not what got us here.
Honestly, I don′t know how you could see, something you once thought of me. Just another volunteer...
To wonder if you ever lie awake in bed and think about the things you said. Your dedication shows but you can′t see, your eyes are closed. And all the promises you made to me, They seem to fade and leave me with this disappointment that these words can never show.
When your ride is over, and your hanging by a thread. As your house of cards is falling, just remember what I said.
So when did you decide, to embrace what you hate to survive? Cuz that′s not what got us here.
And honestly, I don′t know how you could see, something you once thought of me. Just another volunteer, for you to bleed.
And you, bring me to my knees again All the times, I had to beg you please in vain All the times, I felt insecure for you And I leave my burdens at the door
[Chorus:] But I′m on the outside, I′m looking in I can see through you, see your true colors Cause inside your ugly, you′re ugly like me I can see through you See to the real you
All the times that I felt like this won′t end Was for you
And I taste what I could never have Was from you
All the time that I′ve tried My intensions full of pride But I waste more time than anyone
[Chorus]
All the times that I′ve cried All this wasted, it’s all inside And I feel all this pain, stuffed it down It′s all back again And I lie here in bed all alone I can′t mend but I feel tomorrow will be o.k.
[Chorus]
За дверью (перевод)
Ты опять ставишь меня на колени. Раньше я молил тебя «Пожалуйста!», но всегда напрасно. Из-за тебя я постоянно чувствовал себя неуверенным, Поэтому я оставляю свою ношу за дверью.
[Припев:] Я снаружи и смотрю внутрь. И я вижу тебя насквозь, вижу твои истинные черты – Ты уродлива внутри, уродлива, как я. Я вижу тебя насквозь, Вижу твою сущность.
Каждый раз я чувствовал, что этому не будет конца – Из-за тебя.
Я узнал, что такое горечь – Благодаря тебе.
Много раз я старался достучаться до тебя, Переступая через гордость, Но потратил слишком много времени впустую.
[Припев]
Я столько раз плакал, Но всё было напрасно, теперь вся боль скопилась внутри. Я чувствую её и пытаюсь заглушить, Но она возвращается. И вот я лежу один на пустой кровати Не в силах справиться с чувствами, но знаю, завтра всё будет в порядке.
Where’s the love song to set us free Too many people down, everything turning the wrong way round
And I don’t know what love will be But if we stop dreaming now, lord know we’ll never clear the clouds
And you’ve been so busy lately That you haven’t found the time To open up your mind
And watch the world spinning gently out of time
Feel the sunshine on your face It’s in a computer now Gone are the future (? ) way out in space
And you’ve been so busy lately That you haven’t found the time To open up your mind And watch the world spinning gently out of time
And you’ve been so busy lately That you haven’t found the time To open up your mind And watch the world spinning gently out of time Tell me I’m not dreaming But are we out of time (we’re) out of time (x4)
It was a quite day in my city today everything was sinking, says it with come on sunday the old school and the traffic rude apart the west where..watching coming lot in time shining up above me the jet fuel ...down the road lots above with the money ..and the silence sing.

Do you feel like a chain store, practically floored One of many zeros, kicked around bored Your ears are full but you′re empty, holding out your heart To people who never really care how you are
So give me coffee and TV, history I′ve seen so much, I′m going blind and I′m brain dead virtually Sociability, it′s hard enough for me Take me away from this big bad world and agree to marry me So we can start over again
Do you go to the country, it isn′t very far Those people there won′t hurt you ′cause of who you are Your ears are full of the language, there′s wisdom there, you′re sure Till the words start slurring and you can′t find the door
So give me coffee and TV, history I′ve seen so much, I′m going blind and I′m brain dead virtually Sociability, it′s hard enough for me Take me away from this big bad world and agree to marry me So we can start over again
So give me coffee and TV, history I′ve seen so much, I′m going blind and I′m brain dead virtually Sociability, it′s hard enough for me Take me away from this big bad world and agree to marry me So we can start over again
Oh, we could start over again Oh, we could start over again Oh, we could start over again Oh, we could start over again
Street′s like a jungle So call the police Following the herd Down to Greece On holiday Love in the 90′s Is paranoid On sunny beaches Take your chances Looking for Girls who are boys Who like boys to be girls Who do boys like they′re girls Who do girls like they′re boys Always should be someone you really love Avoiding all work ′Cuz there′s none available Like battery thinkers Count your thoughts On one two three four Five fingers Nothing is wasted Only reproduced You get nasty blisters Du bist sehr schцn But we haven′t been
I got my head checked By a jumbo jet It wasn′t easy but nothing is No
Wooooohoooo!! When I feel heavy metal Wooooohoooo!! And I′m pins and I′m needles Wooooohoooo!! Well I lie and I′m easy All of the time I am never sure Why I need you Pleased to meet you
I got my head done When I was young It′s not my problem It′s not my problem
Wooooohoooo!! When I feel heavy metal Wooooohoooo!! And I′m pins and I′m needles Wooooohoooo!! Well, I lie and I′m easy All the time and I′m never sure Why I need you Pleased to meet you
Guarda fuori e′gia′mattina Questo e′un giorno che ricorderai Alzati in fretta e vai C′ Non ti arrendere
Once in every life There comes a time We walk out all alone And into the light The moment won′t last but then, We remember it again When we close our eyes.
Like stars across the sky E per avvincere Tu dovrai vincere We were born to shine All of us here because we believe
Guarda avanti e non voltarti mai Accarezza con i sogni tuoi Le tue speranze e poi Verso il giorno che verr C′
Like stars across the sky E per avvincere Tu dovrai vincere Like stars across the sky
Non arrenderti Qualcuno
Like stars across the sky We were born to shine E per avvincere Dovrai vincere E allora vincerai
English translation:
Look outside: its morning This is a day you′ll remember Hurry, get up and go There are those who believe in you Don′t give up
Once in every life There comes a time We walk out all alone And into the light The moment won′t last but then, We remember it again When we close our eyes.
Like stars across the sky And in order to shine You will have to win We were born to shine All of us here because we believe
Look ahead and never turn your back On the caress of your dreams, Your hopes and then, Turn towards the day that will be There is a finish line there.
Like stars across the sky And in order to shine You will have to win Like stars across the sky
Don′t give up Someone is with you
Like stars across the sky We were born to shine And in order to shine You will have to win And then, you will win!
