I'd listened to what you said Lip service at it's best Hard to believe I once thought You were different than the rest Told me what I wanted to hear Well, that's what you guessed Telling you all of this I don't want it on my chest Say the words you mean Or don't speak to me Should be from the heart So, why don't you agree Watched the rain slam down But I couldn't hear a sound You were there next to me Felt like no one was around Far off in my own world Heart deep-sixed in the ground Searching for words to say Still, they couldn't be found Say the words you mean Or don't speak to me Should be from the heart So, why don't

Every time that I open my eyes I just think and wonder why I'm here There's really nothing that's here for me My world is filled with things that I fear And so I close my eyes back to dream Hope reality's not as it seems So many things out there Going on without me Everything here's in my way Don't know what the world holds I just want to be free I've been left here to decay This place had been my palliation Far from perfect but far from my bane Eternities passed and I'm still here Most of my time is used to complain And so I close my eyes back to dream Hope reality's not as it seems So many things out there Going on withou

An intelligent voice always stands out In a crowd where everyone's a fool A thoughtless decision always flames out But there's an exception to every rule Standing on either side of the divide Don't make a choice out of your foolish pride Take a number, stand in line Don't assume everything will be fine Take a breath, take your time A deep thought is not a crime Any time that you let the blind lead the blind You're just waiting for somebody to get lost If you ever choose to be led by the blind You have to be willing to pay the cost Standing on either side of the divide Don't make a choice out of your foolish pride Standing on e

Won't take you for granted again Not just a lover, my best friend I can see it in your eyes I assumed you'd always be there I know that is not fair And for that I apologize Just wanted you to know If I'm not letting it show Your smile brightens my day Just wanted you to know If I'm not letting it show I love you more every day So we've gone through good and bad Tears of joys and tears when sad Can't say that I always knew When I thought the end was near Sat me down and made it clear That our love would get us through Just wanted you to know If I'm not letting it show Your smile brightens my day Just wanted you to know If

Please tell me a story Of love lost, love found Don't spare me the details They make the world spin around What kind of tale will you weave What's up under your sleeve Shield the eyes of the naive I know I'll be listening And I'm so tired So tired of living in this Existence that is so mundane I'll do whatever Whatever it takes to escape Fantasy's real, I will feign No matter what, I want to be free No matter what, I want to be free When did it happen Yesterday or long ago Star-crossed or first sight That's what I want to know What kind of tale will you weave What's up under your sleeve Shield the eyes of the naive I kn

Your hand in my hand Feel the fingertips shake A beautiful silence The sound that we make How did this come to pass Star-crossed don't find romance The oft-forgotten souls Finally given a chance So we're both afraid Why be afraid alone Walk the path with me You aren't on your own So we're both afraid Why be afraid alone Walk the path with me You aren't on your own Sunkissed skies as day breaks Won't let it waste away With feelings gone amiss And thoughts led astray Ideas lost to the wind Caught in the ebb and flow Feelings rise like the tide I'll never let you go So we're both afraid Why be afraid alone Walk the path

Standing on the corner where Complacency and apathy meet With no mind and no heart Passing time is no big feat Mental living just to get away Oh, to be cold for just one day Walking down the road Just to get away When I see the signs It's a brand new day With the crowd glaring in Burning in the bright light Want to run into the shade The sun has me in its sight Mental living just to get away Oh, to be cold for just one day Walking down the road Just to get away When I see the signs It's a brand new day I long for the gray clouds Winter breeze blowing cold Stay clear of the spotlight In slow motion it unfolds The perfec

It's not hard to love you The hard part is breaking through With my hands on my head I still hear the words you said Staring at the ceiling I just can't shake the feeling Of lovers, thrown away No sleeping, here today Pick your poison Fight or flight But can you sleep at night Pick your poison Fight or flight But can you sleep at night Four A.M., you're not here Just a text that's not sincere "Don't wait up, I'm around" I'm jumping at every sound Like I'm not to worry Come back soon, please hurry I want you, don't need this Falling into an abyss Pick your poison Fight or flight But can you sleep at night Pick your poi

And we're starting to forget The things that made us free We were rebels with a cause Fighting the fight, you and me When did we lose our ways Now it's watered-down quality Pushing on in appearance only Is this the way things'll be We just got lost Along the way I want this back Hurts me every day Graffiti on the wall Handwriting if you will We couldn't read a word Just needed a cheap thrill It should have been no secret We went back on our deal Now, it's coming to an end I'll tell you how it feels We just got lost Along the way I want this back Hurts me every day How many battles have we fought How many wars have we

I can hear them now How could they understand They'd pick the boring way Then want one more bland Problem's all the way up From the top of command Not working for the people Now, it's change we demand They say we've gone too far I say it's not far enough Put your cards on the table There's no fun in a bluff They say we've gone too far I say it's not far enough There's no need to run Because the going got tough Run, go find an alibi Get out of the flames Those ashes on your face Are gonna leave you in shame Don't care who was there I'll take all the blame If they ask who's at fault Just scream out my name They say we've
