Disconnected

<You never listen to me,
You cannot look me in the eyes.
I have struggled to see
Why its so easy to push me aside....

I no longer believe,
That you were ever on my side.
How could you know what I need,
When I'm the last thing on your mind...

Too out of touch, out of touch to touch you
Too out of touch, out of touch to touch you
Too out of touch, out of touch to touch you
Too out of touch, out of touch to touch you

[chorus]
So disconnected, going through the motions again
So disconnected, everything goes over your head
So disconnected, you got me hangin by a thread
So disconnected, when will this cycle end?

You dont really know me,
I dont think you ever even tried
We're on the same routine
Where you say you never have the time

What do you want me to be?
Do you want me in your life?
I feel so incomplete
You left me to fall behind

Too out of touch, out of touch to touch you
Too out of touch, out of touch to touch you
Too out of touch, out of touch to touch you
Too out of touch, out of touch to touch you

[chorus]
So disconnected, going through the motions again
So disconnected, everything goes over your head
So disconnected, you got me hangin by a thread
So disconnected, when will this cycle end?

Its too hard to just move on
Its easier said then done
Its too hard to just move on
Its easier said then done

Too out of touch, out of touch to touch you
Too out of touch, out of touch to touch you
Too out of touch, out of touch to touch you
Too out of touch, out of touch to touch you

[chorus]
So disconnected, going through the motions again
So disconnected, everything goes over your head
So disconnected, you got me hangin by a thread
So disconnected, when will this cycle end?

So disconnected, going through the motions again
So disconnected
When will this cycle end

So disconnected
So disconnected
When will this cycle end?>




Waiting

I wanna meet up with you
And show you what I'm thinking
I'll take you anywhere
That you wanna go
I'm sitting here bored and lonely and
You know that anytime you're free
To show me how you feel
I'll take it anywhere that you want to go
Anywhere that you wanna go

And I'd make it right if you wanted it
I want it back more than you know
I'd cross the line if you wanted it
I want you back

And I'm waiting for you
To get that feeling once again
Reunited in the end
And I've been waiting for you
To capture my imagination
Cuz I've been fooled by the illusions in my head
In my head

Now I realize I never had it so good
You took me anywhere I wanted to go
Now I'm sitting here dreaming of the days we led
Anytime I wanted I could show you how I feel
I can't go anywhere that I want to go
Anywhere that I want to go

And I'd make it right if you wanted it
I want it back more than you know
I'd cross the line if you wanted it
I want you back

And I'm waiting for you
To get that feeling once again
Reunited in the end
And I've been waiting for you
To capture my imagintaion
Cuz I've been fooled by the illusions in my head
In my head

I'll take it anywhere
I'll take it anywhere
I'll take it anywhere
I'll take you anywhere you wanna go

And I'd make it right if you wanted it
I want it back more than you know
I'd cross the line if you wanted it
I want you back
I'm waiting for you
To get that feeling once again
Reunited in the end
I've been waiting for you
To capture my imagintaion
Cuz I've been fooled by the illusions in my head
And I've been fooled by the illusions in my head
And I've been fooled by the illusions in my head




Victim

Let me play
I've been dying to let you win
It's all I wanna be
So wont you take if from me
I wonder
But the less I get the more I give
It's all I wanna be
So wont you take if from me

I want your eyes
I want your eyes on me
I want your eyes
I want your eyes on me
I want your eyes
I want your eyes to see
I want someone to notice me
I wanna be your new victim
I wanna be your new victim

No regrets... even if it's all I get
It's all I wanna be
So wont you take it from me
It still hurts
It's never easy to forget
Do I wanna be
What you never asked me

I want your eyes
I want your eyes on me
I want your eyes
I want your eyes on me
I want your eyes
I want your eyes to see
I want you to notice me
I wanna be your new victim
I wanna be your new victim

I'm right here
I'm right here
I'm right here
I'm right here
I'm right here
I'm right here
I'm right here
I'm right here
I'm right here
So come and get me!
So come and get me!

I wanna be your new victim
I wanna be your new victim
I wanna be your new victim
I wanna be your new victim




Stand Up

Why don't you let me be
leave me alone
you start a fire inside that I could never control
you wanna see a reaction

come on and cut me down
I've gone as far as I'll go
Now I'm crossing the line and I am letting you know
well here's your reaction

Stand up
I have had enough

Walk away before I finish what you started
face to face I will put you in your place
End this game before I finish what you started
Face to face everything will change

You planted the seed
how my anger has grown
got a feeling insdie I can't seem to control
you wanna see a reaction

come on and cut me down
I've gone as far as I'll go
Now I'm crossing the line and I am letting you know
well here's your reaction

Stand up
I have had enough

Walk away before I finish what you started
face to face I will put you in your place
End this game before I finish what you started
Face to face everything will change

Insult after insult after insult...

Stand up
I have had enough

Walk away before I finish what you started
face to face I will put you in your place
End this game before I finish what you started
Face to face everything will change

Walk away
everything will change
end this game
wanna see a reaction
you wanna see a reaction?
stand up




Lost Realist

My independence is calling my name
A doubtful voice divides my faith
My independence only hesitates
An unsure choice I can't embrace
You're gonna have to carve me,
Carve me from stone
Right to the bone or
I'll end up alone
Playing the role
Of someone in control

Why do I rush to slow down
Why do I rush to slow down everything
Why do I rush to slow down
Why do I rush to slow down everything

Will the dice ever roll
When will I ever know
Will the plot ever twist
Or will I still resist
I've been playing the part of a lost realist

My independence is turning the page
Tomorrow comes we start to fade
My independence only complicates
It's not enough to meet half way

You'll have to carve me
Carve me from stone
Right to the bone
Or I'll end up alone
Playing the role
Of someone in control

Why do I rush to slow down
Why do I rush to slow down everything
Why do I rush to slow down
Why do I rush to slow down everything

Will the dice ever roll
When will I ever know
Will the plot ever twist
Or will I still resist
I've been playing the part of a lost realist

I only keep what I give away
I only keep what I give away

Why do I rush to slow down
Why do I rush to slow down everything
Why do I rush to slow down
Why do I rush to slow down
Everything

Will the dice ever roll
When will I ever know
Will the plot ever twist
Or will I still resist
I've been playing the part of a lost realist

Why do I rush to slow down
Why do I rush to slow down everything
Why do I rush to slow down




Skin Deep

This attraction only to appearance
becomming your religion
looks are everything
the only thing
that means something to you

Satisfaction only on the surface
your eyes are always focused
go on and let it show
that there is no exception to the rule

so fill the empty space
with another pretty face
you're skin deep skin deep
no one will ever be perfect in your eyes
skin deep skin deep
only scratching the surface for your prize

First impressions are over in an instant
you make your decision
before you speak a word
you end your search
the page already turned

Every conquest filled with disappointment
lacking any substance
now you're out of words
lines are blurred
you're never gonna learn

so fill the empty space
with another pretty face
you're skin deep skin deep
no one will ever be perfect in your eyes
skin deep skin deep
only scratching the surface for your prize

skin deep skin deep
no one will ever be perfect in your eyes
skin deep skin deep
only scratching the surface for your prize




Influence

Liquid courage pouring down
sober surface hits the ground
the masquerade has started now
and you have faded into the crowd

How do you know?
How do you know just who your friends are
How do you know when you've gone too far to get high again?

You always feel so alone
the real you is never shown
Whose influence, whose influence are you under now?
so much pressure to fit in
never know where to begin
Whose influence, whose influence are you under now?

Liquid courage pouring down
Sober surface can't be found
there's no denial, you can drown
nothing's final so turn around

How do you know?
How do you know just who your friends are
How do you know when you've gone too far to get high again?

You always feel so alone
the real you is never shown
Whose influence, whose influence are you under now?
so much pressure to fit in
never know where to begin
Whose influence, whose influence are you under now?

I want this?
Do I want this?...

How do you know?
How do you know just who your friends are
How do you know when you've gone too far to get high again?

You always feel so alone
the real you is never shown
Whose influence, whose influence are you under now?
so much pressure to fit in
never know where to begin
Whose influence, whose influence are you under now?




Repeat Offender

Where do I turn
I'm always questioning my sanity
Will I ever learn
I have always stolen my identity

Anyone forgive
Anyone forget
I don't want a life without respect
Life without respect

Feel there is no where that I fit
No where that I fit

I am a repeat offender
I will live with this forever
I am a repeat offender
I am a repeat offender

You have my word
There are only lies in my sincerity
I live in a world
That gives no meaning to integrity

Anyone forgive
Anyone forget
I don't want a life without respect
Life without respect

Feel there is no where that I fit
No where that I fit

I am a repeat offender
I will live with this forever
I am a repeat offender
I am a repeat offender

Someone take these handcuffs off my wrists and break the chain of habit!
Someone take these handcuffs off my wrists and break the chain of habit!

I don't want to life without respect...
I feel there is no where that I fit
No where that I fit

I am a repeat offender
I will live with this forever
I am a repeat offender
I am a repeat offender

Where do I turn
I'm always questioning my sanity
Will I ever learn
I've always stolen my identity




Bleed Like Me

Have your nails scratch the deepest
Have you broken skin this time
Made your mark and took me deeper
As you drown me with your eyes
I held my hand over your mouth
As you scream at me to feel
You felt my scars with understanding
But I can't promise anything

Can you tell
That I picked my poison well
That I have no more to sell to you
Is it really that important that I settle down
Does it really even matter that I have my doubts
I search for the one who bleeds
I reach for the one who bleeds

I forget to dream in color
I am better off alone
Honest hearts are undercover
We are shadows on our own
Lose ourselves in open waters
Always swimming back to shore
My addictions have no boundaries
Now I'm crying out for more

Can you tell
That I picked my poison well
That I have no more to sell to you
Is it really that important that I settle down
Does it really even matter that I have my doubts
I search for the one who bleeds
I reach for the one who bleeds
Like me

I have my doubts
I have my doubts
And so does everybody else
So help me take this all away
You gotta help me take this all away
Please help me take this all away
And bleed like me
So help me take this all away
You gotta help me take this all away
Please help me take this all away
And bleed like me

Is it really that important that I settle down
Does it really even matter that I have my doubts
I search for the one who bleeds
I reach for the one who bleeds

I reach for
I reach for
I reach for
I reach for
I reach for the one who bleeds
Like me!




Use Me To Use You

Its hard to trust a stranger
You're a stranger to yourself
So who's to blame
Drown away emotion
As you numb yourself from any real
Pain

There's nothing more real
And nothings what it seems
We're always caught in between
There's nothing left to feel
But still you can not leave
You don't know what you need

I know that you use me to use you
I know that you use me to use you
I know that you use me to use you
To use you
Yeah

Loneliness a ritual
The walls you build around us feel
Safe
Silence is always comfortable
Is this the only reason that you
Stay

There's nothing more real
And nothings what it seems
We're always caught in between
There's nothing left to feel
But still you cannot leave
You don't know what you need

I know that you use me to use you
I know that you use me to use you
I know that you use me to use you
I know that you use me!

Feel your arms around me
Wondering where this will go
I feel your arms around me
Will you ever want this like i do

I know that you use me to use you
I know that you use me to use you
I know that you use me to use you
I know that you use me!

I know that you use me to use you
I know that you use me to use you
To use you
To use you
To use you




My Own Design

I've opened up my eyes, so tell me what I see
I've opened up my mind, so tell me how to think
Use your big words and show me how to speak
You can't live your life through me
I can't believe you think it's that easy

Your walls of pride are only fencing you in
Your ego's been playing games with your head
You're not the mastermind
I am a product of my own design

Following you and your promised guarantees
Free to choose as long as I live your dreams
You say my own weight could never be carried
I'll agree to disagree, I can't believe that you are that naive

Your walls of pride are only fencing you in
Your ego's been playing games with your head
You're not the mastermind
I am a product of my own design

You were my eyes
You were my ears
You were my conscience all these years

No more no more no more
My vision has never been so clear
Looks like I have no one, I have no one left to fear

Your walls of pride are only fencing you in
Your ego's been playing games with your head
You're not the mastermind
I am a product of my own design, design

Your not the mastermind
I'm a product of my own design
