Speak Your Mind

How does it make you feel when I look away
Feelings that will never seem to fade I try to
Find you, you hold your head up high I let it all
Fall down do you hear me

Falling away fromt his pain so I can fly high,
Feeling low just let it show
And find the words to say what you mean

Screaming silent fears, nothing left to say, lost
Inside the words that bring you donw you try to
Find me, I hold my head up high, you let it all fall
Down do you hear me

Find the words to say how you feel inside
Find the words to say how you feel inside
Find the words to say




The Last Song

Verse 1:
I'm sorry for needing
You to carry me
It's so simple sometimes
When you standing next to me

Pre-Chorus:
You never change
You never stay the same
Like a picture perfect sunrise
Every time with one last song to sing

Chorus:
Take it all away from me
And tell me how you want this to be
I want you, I need you

Verse 2:
A life without you
Made me wonder why I'm here
Until I found you
Life never seemed so clear

*Pre-Chorus*

*Chorus*

I lose myself in everything you say
I lose myself in everything

Never knew I could feel this way
Never knew I could feel

I lose myself in everything you say




Far Away

Something
Keeps on pulling me down
And I feel
Like I'm losing ground
Trying
Just to find my reasons
And losing sense of what is real

Willing
To believe in something
Forgetting
To believe in me
Will I
Find my place in your mind
Or will I fall away in time

Chorus:
Now I'm feeling
So far away
And now I'm hating you
Every day

Waiting
Just to see the image
You follow
Down my road again
Trying
Just to find your purpose
You're fading faster every day

Willing
To believe in something
Forgetting
To believe in me
Will I
Find my place in your mind
Or will I fall away in time

Chorus

Now I feel I'm losing time
Yesterday
Slipped away
When you didn't know
Time and time again you wanted
More than I had to give
To leave me with nothing
I'm waiting
And dreaming
Yesterday
Slipped away
When you didn't know
And no more waiting
Let me back

Chorus x2

(Now I'm feeling)
So far away x3




Shadows

Look around and tell me what you see, a place
Surrounded by the hate that hides in the
Shadows inside of you, inside of me, what can we
Ever hope to see if we're not lookng don't you
Want to find your own way home again just leave
Your hate behind

When will you learn to just be you, find your
Own way
When will you learn to follow through, make
Your own way

Looking for something to believe, i find the
Answer starts with me each time i follow inside
Of you, inside of me, what can we ever hope to be
If we're not trying don't you want to find your
Own way home again, just leave your hate behind

Find another way to get inside me
Find yourself
Don't you want to find yoru own way home again
Just leave your hate behind




Lifeless

Desperate and waiting, frozen to the core, numb
To this feeling, needing something more all i
Keep thinking is where i need to be, all i can hope
For is someone to take me away

Before you go you promise me something, i need
To know will you leave me lifeless leaving me
Lifeless

Will i bow down to this life that i live, will i find
Freedom or lose it all again all i keep thinking is
Where i need to be, all i can hope for is someone
To take me away

Before you go you promise me something, i need
To know will you leave me lifeless time moves so
Slow, i'm waiting for something, waiting for
Something again

Will i fall away from you, feelings that i never
Knew and i hope that i never fall away




Bitter

Mother Mother
Can you hear me
I keep trying
Just to find me
All I know now
All you show me
Endless questions
Hopeless ending
This bitter pill is pushing me away
And now I feel like there's nothing left to say
And I pretend to look the other way
But in the end will I be okay
Will I be okay
Father Father
Will you be here as I cry out silent again
Turning colder, frozen deeper
Numb to this dream sleeping within
Before I face another day
Won't you let asleep
Lost among the dreams that always comfort me
And before I find my feet
Won't you show me what I need
What I need to walk again




Photograph

Fear falls a lot like rain again
Washing over me
You say nothing will ever change
What do I believe
You fall deep inside again
There's nothing left to see
Weakness fills your heart again

You put it to rest

Forfeit everything cause
You were never strong enough
Close my eyes again
Pray that I will not give up

I try to see your face again
A photograph of me
Your voice calling out again
Nothing left for me
You try to find your place again
Waiting just to breathe
We mistake your heart again

You put it to rest

Locked inside again
Locked inside again
Locked inside again

Forfeit everything cause
You were never strong enough
Close my eyes again
Pray that I will not give up
Forfeit everything
You were never strong enough
Close my eyes again
Pray that I will not give up

Did you
Forget about the things I said
Fight the lies inside your head
Deny those who try to bring you down
Kill the pain and emptyness
Find the love and lose yourself
But life is like your just a memory

Locked inside again
Locked inside again
Locked inside again

Forfeit everything
You were never strong enough
Close my eyes again
Pray that I will not give up
Hoping everything
You were never strong enough
Close my eyes again
Pray that I will not give up....




3 Leaf Loser

Biting the hand that feeds you, lying to the voice
Inside, reach out to beg for something this life
Is a lesson, take what you're given feeding on
Self destruction, waiting to explode again, no
Sign of resolution this life is a lesson, take what
You're given

You don't need direction to find your way, don't
You listen to yourself now and again killing
Time, killing you mind over matter, stop and
Listen to yourself now

Bend me before i breakdown, dying to be free
Within, it's not how you'd like to see it this life
Is a lesson, take what you're given forcing your
Self solution as you fall into line again, when
Will i find the answers this life is a lesson, take
What you're given

Falling to the ground, left face down as i recall
The mirrors ugly glare




Stay

I walk to the edge again, searching for the truth
Taken by the memories of all that I've been through
If I could hear your voice I know that I would be okay
I know that I've been wrong but I'm begging you to stay
Won't you stay

Will you be here or will I be alone
Will I be scared, you'll teach me how to be strong
And if I fall down will you help me carry on
I cannot do this alone

I wish that I could turn back time just to have one more chance
To be the man I need to be, I pray you'll understand
If I could hear your voice I know that I would be okay
I know that I've been wrong but I'm begging you to stay
Won't you stay

Will you be here or will I be alone
Will I be scared, you'll teach me how to be strong
And if I fall down will you help me carry on
I cannot do this alone

I need your hand to help me make it through again
Nothing compares to how I feel when I look at you
You never know, you never know tomorrow
You never know, you never know tomorrow
Don't walk away

Will you be here or will I be alone
Will I be scared, you'll teach me how to be strong
And if I fall down will you help me carry on
I cannot do this alone
(2x)

I am not alone I know you're there (3x)
I am not alone.




Waiting For Yesterday

It's a long way back to reality, she puts another
Brick in the wall of shame she made so long ago
Trying to figure out where things went wrong
Searching through all the lies she told
Somehow she missed out on all the things that
She needed most days spent wondering why this
Life is so cold and nothing ever changes

Screaming for attention, watch the sun steal
Yesterday
Hiding all emotion far away

Trying to find his self confidence, another
Broken heart behind the painless smile that he
Shows reminded that yesterday is so far gone
And tomorrow is still a miracle somehow he
Missed out on all the things he needed most days
Spent wondering why this life is so cruel and
Nothing ever changes

Tomorrow's still a miracle




In Closing

Step back inside the lie again, you'll find you're
Wearing thin
Killing the sympathy as you take another swing
At me now
Fighting your inner self again, losing what
You feel
Shielded behind the lies that make you feel real
Now

It's over and i don't feel a thing but you're
Trying to break the scar again your spirit is
Bleeding as you grin but your bridge keeps on
Burning at both ends

In your mind, the ending seems to be so far from
What you need
Take back the memories as you smile to hide the
Pain from me now
Shut down the curiosity that brings you here
Again
No sense of purity as you try to take the life
From me now

Nothing that you ever say could ever possibly
Erase
All the hateful things you did and now i'm
Through with you nothing you could ever say

Nothing you could ever say
Hope you're happy now
