He wakes up to the sound of screaming
He's just like everyone else
But a second voice is screaming back saying
I'm only like myself
Tossing turning late at night
He's waiting for the cure
But if it kills the one he loves
Will it still make him pure?
Pangs of pleasure
No one out there
Don't come in here
I'm not in here
He walks the streets alone at dusk
Hunting his addiction
So he can crawl inside himself
And fall into submission
Sunlight pierces shattered windows
Shadows at the door
He runs for redemption
As the shells bounce across the floor
Pangs of pleasure
No one out there
Don't come in here
I'm not in here
And he's in her arms
And they're face to face
And the lights are blaring
And the people staring
But all that matters
Is each other
Face to face
Lover to lover
Dust to dust
Ashes to Ashes
Pangs of pleasure
No one out there
Don't come in here
I'm not in here

Metro

Last night on the metro
A face set the train aglow
As I listened to my sad brit-pop
My world came to a stop
And the words don't work
They'll just make things worse
As I walk down your old street
And if you lead the way
Maybe I could stay
All this talk is getting old
I don't think she likes me much
She makes me paranoid
I just feel manipulated
But we're alright
Yeah we're alright
The world is ending somewhere
But you don't seem to care
Something is happening upstairs
But you just sit and stare
And the words won't work
They'll just make things worse
As I pass by your rotary
And if you lead the way maybe I could stay
Good God it hurts so much
I don't think she likes me much
She makes me paranoid
I just feel manipulated
But we're alright
Yeah we're alright
I don't think she likes me much
She makes me paranoid
I just feel manipulated
But we're alright
Yeah we're alright

We'll Wait And See

She sent me a photo today
She said she was cold
I know that it's a bit of a cliche
But she takes my breath away
She pushes and teases me
When out of the blue
She does something just like this
And knocks the wind out of you
We talk nearly every day
But I'm scared for the future
See I'm moving far away
Leaving us fewer moments
Just her and I
I wanna tell her how I feel
I know she'll agree with me
But this one little thing
Keeps nagging me
To push her away
Before it's too late
I guess we'll see
We'll wait and see

The Ride
03:30

You can put your head on my shoulder
Its cool, I don't mind
I hear you say without me you're colder
Well love you help the sun shine
The only thing I want it to hold her
Girl, I'm lost in your eyes
You can put your head on my shoulder
Its cool I don't mind
I remember that ride so clearly
The city was a blur
We sang songs and we laughed together
I hung on every word
We told stories and grasped for something so far away
Your empty touch was just like the dreams of yesterday
I go back there sometimes, this picture of mine where its just you and I
We sit and we talk if only I thought to hold your hand close to mine
You can put your head on my shoulder
Its cool I don't mind
You can put your head on my shoulder
Love you all the time
You can put your head on my shoulder
You can put your head on my shoulder
You can put your head on my shoulder
Love you all the time

Everything was perfect
We had it all planned out
Even now I remember
How we talked so loud
Shredded with nostalgia
Perforated with fear
My mind, it's somewhere else
Far away from here
And "I love you" doesn't say it
No matter how you weigh it
So I suggest you save it
For another time
Peace is just a piece of mind
Laying in my cocoon
I tell you I am here
I forgot what pain felt like
Loving one so near
I broke my soul today
My manners killed themselves
I just forgot who I was
I hid it so well
And "I love you" doesn't say it
No matter how you weigh it
So I suggest you save it
For another time
Peace is just a piece of mind
I never dream when I'm with you
But when you leave that's all I do
I knew we'd never make it through
But why'd you have to cut it off so soon?
I never dream when I'm with you
But when you leave that's all I do
I knew we'd never make it through
But why'd you have to cut it off so soon?
And "I love you" doesn't say it
No matter how you weigh it
So I suggest you save it
For another time, baby
Peace is just a piece of mind

Miracle Worker

I give life, and I take it away
I decide if you'll live to see another day
I break hearts, and I give them away
And decide if you deserve to stay
We sat alone and I held your hand, too scared to break it, here we stand, I knew we'd make it, so take your stand, even if you have to fake it
Miracle Worker
I don't belong here
Please give me a reason to stay
Tomorrow, well it's just another yesterday
I bring peace and I twist the knife
Yet you still trust me with your life
It's over when I light up the night
Yet you still believe that I'll make things right.
We sat alone and I held your hand, too scared to break it, here we stand, I knew we'd make it, so take your stand, even if you have to fake it
Miracle Worker
I don't belong here
Please give me a reason to stay
Tomorrow, well it's just another yesterday
One day my three wishes will run out
We'll fall together and in doubt
And you'll know I can't keep you from danger
Not for long, my favorite stranger
Miracle Worker
I don't belong here
Please give me a reason to stay
Tomorrow, well it's just another yesterday

Wake Up
04:21
|
|||
|
Nailed to the floor again
It's only a matter of time
This cave that I'm in
Keeps me wandering
Life ebbs, life flows
And washes away
Away from my face
I'm getting old
Braving the elements
Under my skin
You don't know the
Trouble I'm in
Wake up
Put on display again
It's only a matter of time
This old emptiness
Keeps me wondering
Last time was horrid
But it washed away
Away from my brain
And I am sane again
Braving the elements
Under my skin
You don't know
The torture it's been
Wake up
Please don't let me go back
Please don't let me go back there again
Please don't let me go back
Please don't let me go back there again
Wake up

All Systems Down
04:37

I'm mad at myself
Got a case of what once was called the blues
I'm sick of myself
Got no real life this time
Everything just falls around me it's all systems down
Try to find a solution but there's none to be found
I can see it in your eyes I can read your lips they say it's all systems down
Well I can't let go of this somehow
No car, no job
Got a case of what once was called the blues
Your friends hang around
Got no time for new ones to be found
Everything just falls around me it's all systems down
Try to find a solution but there's none to be found
I can see it in your eyes I can read your lips they say it's all systems down
Well I can't let go of this somehow
All systems down
All systems down
I'm mad at myself
Got a case of what once was called the blues
I'm sick of myself
Got no real life this time
Everything just falls around me it's all systems down
Try to find a solution but there's none to be found
I can see it in your eyes I can read your lips they say it's all systems down
Well I can't let go of this somehow

Simulated Sympathy

Thank you for the ride
I'm glad it meant so much to you
And thanks for all the hurt
And all the pain you've put me through
Thank you for the past
And everything we did back then
And thank you for reminding me
That I'll never get back there again
Thank you for the apathy
Simulated sympathy
I fell for your empathy
And look at what you did to me
Thank you for your touch
It made me feel like someone cared
And thank you for the knife
Now I'm bleeding out, this isn't fair
Thank you for your love
I guess you loved me all that you could
And thank you for the lies
Just 'cuz you can don't mean you should
And thank you for the apathy
Simulated sympathy
I fell for your empathy
And look at what you did to me

I'm Sorry
04:18

I'm sorry
We don't see each other anymore
I'm sorry
We don't really talk like once before
Remember we used to hang out all the time?
But we got old got lives, but I swear I'm fine
I guess you wonder where I've been
No?
Well me neither
I guess it doesn't matter when
My friends wonder why I act this way
Well I'm in a daze from all the things you say
I can't believe the things I did for you
I miss our little chats
Our hangouts so relaxed
So pack it up, up
Pack it up and send 'em home
So pack it up, up
Pack it up and send 'em home
Let her be what she wants to
Don't let her be what she wants to
Let him say what he wants to
Don't let him say what he wants to
So pack it up, up
Pack it up and send 'em home
So pack it up, up
Pack it up and send 'em home
Let her be what she wants to
Don't let her be what she wants to
Let him say what he wants to
Don't let him say what he wants to
I'm sorry
So sorry

I didn't ask for your advice
Won't you let me live my life?
Even if it's just a lie
Even if it's just a lie
She couldn't wish for anything more
But there's something that she didn't ask for
Resting there beside the bed
A classic case of seeing red
She can't stand one more mistake
Her strength inside begins to break
Just suck it up, the shame will pass
Just smile for the camera flash
I didn't ask for your advice
Won't you let me live my life?
Even if it's just a lie
Even if it's just a lie
Even now she's standing tall
Even though it's all her fault
She's just rotting in her shell
At least that's what she tells herself
Everything will be okay
The sunset marks the end of the day
And she looks down to the street
Somewhere far beneath her feet
I didn't ask for your advice
Won't you let me live my life?
Even if it's just a lie
Even if it's just a lie
