don’t know why I was feeling this way, I, think you can tell when I’m no good felt it unevening and I, just thought it would work, home, I reach for the phone. for the call to come on i’m really sinking. you stand, apart from the walls, thought about all, I’m really sinking it’s still on if I got to leave, I’ve got to see you go left it unraveling, I can’t, pick up the threads, not this time really believed in you my my, I thought it would work, but I cant— home. I reach for the phone. for the call to come on i’m really sinking. you stand, apart from the walls, thought about all, I’m really sinking tomorrow I’ll be leaving, with your cellophane “goodbyes” got to get out, anyway you can

Stand on your feet You don’t have to be On your own When you go You don’t have to see It’s such a shame to watch you come down Out of the clouds, and into the ground It’s such a shame, to see you go Wait for me there Won’t be long, I swear Do you know how it feels to slide away? It’s such a shame to watch you come down Out of the clouds and into the ground It’s such a shame to see you go There’s got to be some peace of mind Some way to get to sleep at night I’ve got to see you, hear you breathing To say that this is what I’m fearing In the shadows (We wait for it to break)

Walls 04:11
Everyone says this is nowhere It’s not what it seems And everyone says if you go you won’t really be free So I try to write it down, I try to figure it out But everytime I do the words just can’t be found Everyone knows this is nowhere It’s not what it seems And everyone knows if you go You’ll take a part of me Where do we go when the walls come down? All that you see It’s really gone off the rails, it’s all a mystery. And I’d bury the roof and the walls to this town I’d turn you away if I could turn it around We keep growing up ‘til we find a way out I’d turn you away if I could turn it around

Out in the streets They cried all night For you to come home And I thought it quite fine That you’d be down And really on your own Pain, I feel, I see I never wanna leave when I’m okay Hate to be so real But I just don’t believe Out in the rain We watched you go And I just can’t say why Just felt so strange to be alone And really sinking, I I don’t really wanna lose you (not again) I don’t really wanna lose you (not again) I don’t really wanna lose you (not again) I don’t really wanna lose you— Where to turn? I’m on my knees It’s not enough. It’ll never be. We build these dreams, we can’t live out I’m on my knees

The Runaway 03:52
Your feelings, what they wanted you to be You know its what they wanted you to see Your feelings, what they wanted you to be You’ll take it if you lose your way All you ever wanted was to feel like you Were something else And all you ever wanted was to feel like you Were something else So cut ‘em down, hang ‘em on the walls Lie where we first lay This emptiness inside won’t go away All you ever wanted was to feel like you Were something else And all you ever wanted was to feel like you Were something else So cut ‘em down, hang ‘em on the walls Lie where we first lay This emptiness inside won’t go away We’ve been moving We’ve been moving We’ve been moving On Don’t try to save me Don’t try to save my soul

Better Days 05:09
Woke up cold and really unaware, caught my feelings before they got away As I lay witness to this endless game, it’s the price that you pay to live this way Better Days Better Days We’re just looking for a way Better Days Better Days We’re just looking for a change December gone again, the years turn gray. Wanted to believe what they all say. Tomorrow we’ll run faster, maybe we’ll leave this place. Tomorrow we just might lose our way. Better Days Better Days We’re just looking for a change Better Days Better Days We’re just looking for a way

A fear you can’t shake This feeling, you drowned in the lake Over night In your heart So full of it all A sickened withdrawal, from the same things that Made you crawl On your knees Carve out my eyes, if it makes you feel better I can’t tell wrong from right, black from white It’s all the same, when you’re staring down the barrel of a gun Can’t remember your own name Seal up your conscious in that cellophane bag, You suffocate feelings, all that you had You don’t need it now, I swear, in the end It’ll just drag you down But I don’t wanna feel Like I’m dragging this weight Tied at the ankles And we just can’t relate One more time now Just to relieve the pain I can’t bear What do we cling to? When all of this is gone It’s hard to find meaning, when you never belong You get stuck in one place The water just rises, fillin’ up inside you But I don’t wanna feel Like I’m dragging this weight Tied at the ankles And we’re running from fate One more time now Just to relieve the pain I can’t bear (Bend and you break, yeah you bend and you break) (Bend and you break, yeah you bend and you break)
8.
Just a subtle indication, a feeling I had Cut the cord don’t leaving me hanging here like this Just so disappointing, now the wait is over Guess it wasn’t what you wanted, after all What do you feel? Do you feel anything at all? Just a feeling that I paid for, oh the expectations Really let you down, the worst of situations What do you feel? Do you feel anything at all? (Turn your self away) (Come back another day)

A Farewell 04:29
In time we’ll forget the words Promises, all that’s been burned Ashes to dust Hoping we’re good enough A stain Just a mark on a page Your life A day in the rain How can we say? We’ll be gone Soon enough A feeling To open the door Asleep on the kitchen floor Pleasure and pain Here for today Tomorrow can’t stay So I sat And wrote down these words As they carried your body To the dirt How can we say? We’ll be gone Soon enough And if all that you wanna break Don’t mean nothing at all Turn the lights on I just can’t see So I sat And wrote down these words As they carried your body To the dirt I’ll see you soon, I’ll see you soon My friend

Gone 04:55
Falling at your feet, I just can’t find the reasons why We do this to ourselves So hard to believe but so easy to see there’s just Something missing here If it all works out, I know I’ll be around To see you leaving And if I find you I know I’ll figure out the reasons we do All these things at dark so heavy in your heart The thoughts of going under again We wipe the tears from our eyes, hide the things we can’t find Stains, no other reason to try “You’re just too young, to understand” I hope you’re fine Too young to understand Falling to your knees, I just can’t find the reasons why We do this to ourselves So hard to believe but so easy to see there’s just Something missing here Time is what you need, time all you can’t be Time is what you need to get out “You’re just too young, to understand” I hope you’re fine Too young to understand
