Cold afternoon I sleep in some Back of the room Avoid the sun You turned off the light and I lost a lung You called it a night You had me won Who told you to leave me all alone Leave me in the dark Leave me in the cold Who told you to leave before I could show You half of the man you wanted to know But I had to face your last goodbye But I had to face your last goodbye The look on my face My bloodshot eyes So who won the war Deep down inside I can′t decide I can′t decide Only the dark can feel my touch No kind of remark could burn this much Cause I′m as cold as december And I won′t surrender Until you give me back my life Who told you to leave me all alone Leave me in the dark Leave me in the cold Who told you to leave before I could show You half of the man you wanted to know But I had to face your last goodbye But I had to face your last goodbye The look on my face My bloodshot eyes So who won the war Deep down inside I can′t deicde I can′t decide I can′t see the sun in the morning Please send me a warning Next time I go through this again All out of luck All out of time Who would have thought I′d lose my mind No I can′t decide I can′t decide Who told you to leave me all alone Leave me in the dark Leave me in the cold Who told you to leave before I could show You half of the man you wanted to know But I had to face your last goodbye But I had to face your last goodbye The look on my face My bloodshot eyes So who won the war Deep down inside I can′t decide No I can′t decide.
You try to move on but still you′re perfecting failure There′s always something in your way
Was it the guilt in you that pushed me to improve? I know you′ve always had the choice to hear You gave it all up when you broke the thought Of keeping away the things you bought When you took common sense so serious
This time around you′re coming closer You′re never coming back until you know it′s over Won′t you take it away from me? Just take it all Cause you never know you′re leaving until it′s over
And it′s not that it′s too hard to try to turn your eyes and drive the pain away It′s how much easier it is to let it stay Once again it′s on the tip my tongue "Don′t you wish it was done?" I′m afraid we′re only at the start You knew that this is how things are
But hate to break it to you now, But that reoccurring sound In your ear makes it perfect Was it clear, my whole purpose? I′m just fine with or without Having this inner selfish doubt I′ll fall hard You′ll fall harder I′m along You′re too startled
Break a sweat, desperate lover Do you feel all alone?
I fell asleep on your death bed In a hole in your head rests I′m facing truths so unfamiliar I just close my eyes and Fall asleep on your deathbed Can we be resurrected? I′m facing truths so unfamiliar I′m your saint, will you be my savior?
I always hoped to bring this down Words exchanging all around You spoke quick, I spoke faster Take your pick, take mine after But the time went ticking And hearts went missing It′s not what I waited on
Break a sweat, desperate lover Do you feel all alone?
I fell asleep on your death bed In a hole in your head rests I′m facing truths so unfamiliar I just close my eyes and Fall asleep on your deathbed Can we be resurrected? I′m facing truths so unfamiliar I′m your saint, will you be my savior?
Will you be my savior?
We both agreed that this was best But I can′t risk to lose my rest I closed my eyes now you′re well on your way I bend and fold at your request Now it′s my time to take a step I closed my eyes now you′re well on your way
I fell asleep on your death bed In hole in your head rests. I′m facing truths so unfamiliar I just close my eyes and fall asleep on your deathbed Can we be resurrected? I′m facing truths so unfamiliar I′m your saint, will you be my savior?
You′ve got to know by now that stepping in and out won′t bring you down until you make it definite sacrifice your rest I thought you said you′re different? from those who believe in it they believe (in Universities) Oh, not another mind made up for doing nothing more than all you see they′ve got no more room to breathe until we just get them to Say we′ll make them say that we′ve been down and out all day if your education brings you home why are you still away? So give it up if you′re not still trying to hold it up in your four-time windowed room I′ve got the feeling that you′re not using up all of your best bets on plans that you still don′t have set for those who believe in it they believe... until we just get them to Say we′ll make them say that we′ve been down and out all day if your education brings you home why are you still away? See we′ll make them see that we′ve got no more room to breathe if your education brings you home why are you still away? I gave it all the thought you said you needed but the minutes got repeated for too long far too long Can you save us all from the thought you said you needed ′cause i feel like i′ve competed for too long far too long We′ve got no more room to breathe until we just get them to see We′ve got no more room to breathe until we just get them to Say we′ll make them say that we′ve been down and out all day if your education brings you home why are you still away? See we′ll make them see that we′ve got no more room to breathe if your education brings you home why are you still away
Where do you go when you listen to nobody else but yourself? Where do you go? You′re so far from the willing you′re in such a rush not to tell So where do you go?
Oh when getting in where your feet end doesn′t get you one single thing Where will you go? When the secrets that you′ve been keeping get a hold of nothing And oh, i′d like to know
Can I wish you away Till you find your place in this world it′s so hard to get a feel And all you do is wait But then one little taste So caught up it′s hard to know what′s real But until you′ve had all you can take I′ll wish you away
So where do you when forgetting what you had in store for yourself? Drags me along because you keep running in circles You′re blinded by everything Just ask me if I know where to go Where to go?
Can I wish you away Till you find your place in this world it′s so hard to get a feel And all you do is wait But then one little taste So caught up it′s hard to know what′s real But until you′ve had all you can take Oh but until you′ve had all you can take Can I wish you away
Would you baby go backward? Can I wish you away? Would you baby go backward?
You say you′ll be gone just another minute. Don′t fall (?) Don′t act like you′re sleeping when I can see you′re wide awake.
Can I wish you away? Till you find your place in this world it′s so hard to get a feel And all you do is wait But then one little taste So caught up it′s hard to know what′s real
Can I wish you away? Till you find your place in this world it′s so hard to get a feel And all you do is wait But then one little taste So caught up it′s hard to know what′s real But until you′ve had all you can take I′ll wish you away
I walk, you run. Feel so outdone. You always wanted it to be one on one. I cost, you′re free. Make me believe That you′ve been innocent ′til proven guilty.
So scrape my hands and knees Softer now I plead for your forgiveness ′Cause the world can′t stand to witness You keep tearing me down, Looks like I met my match today.
Play me in everything. Make me a rival. But you still don′t see that you′re A sore winner, a sore winner. Losing is not your thing, you can′t hold the title. But you still don′t see that you′re A sore winner, a sore winner.
I want, you feed. Pick up your speed. There can′t be saving if it′s already been won. I play for keeps, but you don′t listen. Remember me? I′m what you′re missing. missing out on (missing out on) Stuck in this competition.
So scrape my hands and knees. Softer now, I read your mindless interest As we′re coming down to inches. You keep tearing me down, Looks like I met my match today.
Play me in everything. Make me a rival. But you still don′t see that you′re A sore winner, a sore winner. Losing is not your thing, you can′t hold the title. But you still don′t see that you′re A sore winner, a sore winner.
Play me in everything. Make me a rival. But you still don′t see that you′re A sore winner, a sore winner Losing is not your thing, you can′t hold the title. But you still don′t see that you′re A sore winner, a sore winner.
Play me in everything. Make me a rival. But you still don′t see that you′re A sore winner... (Realness...)
Your initial reply hit me undercover When I lost my head to it It was out of its time, it was undiscovered As I caught my breath again You were running out of lies to keep me under Afraid of your back hands (?) So to speak, you had me shaking at the knees
But I don′t know the way out of this mess No, I don′t know the way out of this mess And if you would′ve seen me at my best Would it have changed anything at all?
Remember when -- we never had to remember when times were better When times were better than this We never had to remember when times were better When times were better than this
The door was always open But still not nearly enough to let me in and my eyes are wide awake, And i can see you clearly, but you don′t stand out one bit. I was always loud enough just for you to hear me You never caught the wind Now watch me break Breakdown this time, this time again
But I don′t know the way out of this mess No, I don′t know the way out of this mess And if you would′ve seen me at my best Would it have changed anything at all?
Remember when -- we never had to remember when times were better When times were better than this We never had to remember when times were better When times were better than this (When times were better, when times were better than this [x2])
And I′m still waiting for a sign Or just a win-win situation Can I hear it one more time? Without the sound of devastation setting in
Your initial reply hit me undercover When I lost my head to it It was out of its time, it was undiscovered When you let me in Oh, won′t you let me in?
Remember when -- we never had to remember when times were better When times were better than this We never had to remember when times were better When times were better than this
Do you remember, remember when? Do you remember, remember when? We never had to remember when times were better When times were better than this (When times were better, when times were better than this [x2])
The turns you had to take still keep you awake Down come the walls where you once stood From constant changes you have made You′ll keep inside ′til you have a say
We change as we get older We′re not to stay The days we walked are over
Now we just drive away From everything I know You′re counting days on the back of your hands You turn the pages ′til you have no more plans
The only time you had to think of all the things involved Came when you were least expecting And now it′s up to us to replace it To tell us when ages have made a difference Cause changes tell just who we are
We change as we get older We′re not to stay The days we walked are over
Now we just drive away From everything I know You′re counting days on the back of your hands You turn the pages ′til you have no more plans
Now we′re just miles away From all that we could be You′re counting days on the back of your hands We turn the pages
Remember the days you′ve counted won′t be forgotten I hope you won′t leave yourself out When we turn the pages x2
Now we just drive away From everything I know You′re counting days on the back of your hands We turn the pages
Now we′re just miles away From all that we could be You′re counting days on the back of your hands We turn the pages
Split decisions, finding fixes I test ride my memory Tunnel vision, I give in and put An end to make - shifting relief This game has got me shaking hands With my own enemies I see faces, but none of them Not one believes in me
And at the end of the road I′ll hate to say I told you so
I don′t need you to find resolve Cause when it′s said and done Down to one I′ll hate to say I told you so And as your promises dissolve I′ll get bragging rights You′ll realize that from day one I always told you so
Go on living making killings Off of all your broken dreams I′ll stay in within the out And I bet you won′t find on weak bone in me It′s been a long time coming but no need for sympathy I made my mind, I′ll spend my time Just making you believe
I know this doesn′t sound like it′s the best of me But it feels so good to know what I′ve got I found a remedy
found me a fix for all these broken memories Something to cure the sick and suffering Cause I did what I wanted to Rest assured, no more time to lose I found a remedy
It′s gonna get harder from here We′ve gotta get smarter to make it out alive Cause you say stop and we say go Don′t wanna be your tenth caller on the radio So don′t bother cutting me off short tonight We let our words speak for themselves Don′t take it all so far Don′t make it that much harder Than it already is for you to stand alone For you, for you, for you
To wake up knowing you′ve got the day To take on without feeling okay To make yourself unwilling to sleep away Sleep away the pain Don′t take off running without my say Don′t pay that price you thought you′d pay You′re got the choice you′ve got the time of day Just don′t sleep away the pain
Hold on tight to the things you′re given The camera caught it all Aren′t we all forgiven now? Cause you say stop and we say go The world outside is calling on the telephone They need answers So we′ll let them know Tonight, we let our words speak for themselves But maybe I′m not right We′re so damaged by the sunlight Can we make it through together Cause honey I don′t like this kind of weather When I′m with you...
To wake up knowing you′ve got the day To take on without feeling okay To make yourself unwilling to sleep away Sleep away the pain Don′t take off running without my say Don′t pay the price you thought you′d pay You′re got the choice you′ve got the time of day Just don′t sleep away the pain Just don′t sleep away the pain
It′s gonna get harder from here We′ve gotta get smarter to get this all in line Cause you say stop and we say go Oh
To wake up knowing you′ve got the day To take on without feeling okay To make yourself unwilling to sleep away Sleep away the pain Don′t take off running without my say Don′t pay the price you thought you′d pay You′re got the choice you′ve got the time of day Just don′t sleep away the pain Just don′t sleep away the pain
Something wrong with me I′m not getting along with me My eyes pasted on the ceiling I can′t get my mind to stop working
I knew all the blackest blues You were all my favorite tunes This was all I had to lose
Tried out for size to my surprise I can′t fit in anybody′s arms No more disguise ′cause I realize I can′t fit in anybody′s arms Oh you, oh you left just in time
Should have known to turn Get ahead of the curve but I′ve learned The failure sounds all too familiar to me To just keep my mind to stop working
I knew all the blackest blues You were all my favorite tunes This was all I had to lose
Tried out for size to my surprise I can′t fit in anybody′s arms No more disguise ′cause I realize I can′t fit in anybody′s arms Oh you, oh you left just in time
As the light darkens again I lose myself within ′Cause in the end still I′m reminded Still I′m reminded
Tried out for size to my surprise I can′t fit in anybody′s arms No more disguise ′cause I realize I can′t fit in anybody′s arms
Tried out for size I can′t fit in anybody′s arms No more disguise ′cause I realize I can′t fit in anybody′s arms Oh you, oh you left just in time You left just in time
It′s three in the morning and I′m still not sleeping ′Cause I am finally run in your race The mountains you′ve been climbing seem like they have steepened Since I decided to pick up the pace If the whole world told me I should disappear Could I fall right next to you?
Just let me burn the night away Oh baby, let me burn the night away By thinking of the simple things you say to me That get me true the day You keep me wide awake You keep me wide awake
So don′t look back The hour glass is running empty You′ve got me buried with your every move You′re fine line tapped me with a loss of memory I′m right beside you in an empty room If the whole word told me I should disappear Could I fall right next to you?
Just let me burn the night away Oh baby, let me burn the night away By thinking of the simple things you say to me That get me true the day And it′s so hard to catch your feelings When you always run away You keep me wide awake You keep me wide awake
You′re making it hard For me to just start over like we′re new Oh, the whole world told me I should disappear ′Cause I′m falling in love with you
Just let me burn the night away Oh baby, let me burn the night away By thinking of the simple things you say to me That get me true the day And it′s so hard to catch your feelings When you always run away You keep me wide awake You keep me wide awake
You keep calling it a crash and burn just wait your turn you might have time to speak there barely was a lesson learned Cause it will return no favors back to me I′m sure it tasted oh so sweet but it was never good enough for me I bit the tongue behind my teeth it was never good enough for me
(Chorus) You say you always keep your word Show me what you′re after I thought you′d promise me the world tell me what you′re after go on and take it way too far cause here we are waiting once again you say you always keep your word show me what you′re after just a little faster
Am i the only eyes that see so steadily this cut and dry routine Even when you′re by my side i still need time to feel the company
i′m sure it tasted oh so sweet but it was never good enough for me i bit the tongue behind my teeth it was never good enough for me
(Repeat Chorus)
hold your breath now the bad blood′s wearing thin from the pain that settles in when we learn too much too soon (repeat) too soon
You say you always keep your word show me what you′re after I thought you′d promise me the world tell me what you′re after go on and take it way too far cause here we are waiting once again you say you always keep your word show me what you′re after
It was never good enough for me show me what you′re after Just a little faster
