you can never tell me I shouldn't walk away
its foolish to assume that I'll be coming back another day
you were never right and I was never wrong
does truth lie in sincerity of another sullen song
cause you were right then I should have been the one to release it
its coming back to tease me
but I was just born and you're pride was too strong
can you change it?
are you willing to face it?
you can tell your story and coat it any way
but you will never change who you trying to play
now your friends are falling out
they know you just don't care
they know you never did
because they say always
the first one is never as good as the next.
hey, it's just rock and roll
even though you might think you lost it all.
cause the times they are a changin
and who can predict what's next
hey, you lost control
even though you might have thought you had it all
and hey, it's just rock and roll
and I'll never change
I love it just the same
I'll never change
because I love it just the same
god I wish I could hate you the rest of my life
god I wish I could hate you for the rest of my
. . .

Run away when you are down.
Pick up the pace cause you fear the sound of mistakes
that are getting closer every time.
Time is catching up to you.
You keep on trying to escape your problems,
but problems keep on catching you.
You should try to turn the other way and escape your lies.
You run with no direction,
can you find direction now?
Say when you'll never change,
I'm hoping that you'll say.
But I doubt it will come,
and I doubt it will stay,
and I doubt if you want me anyway.
Can you find direction now?

I've heard advice that anger soon subsides
and you go on with your life
and gain new insight
but inside I'm thinking that just wont suffice
cause I'm sure I'd like to take it back
and kill it at the start
yeah
we're going far
yeah
it's from the heart
yeah
we're taking care of every single one of us
who do you trust
if we could be recluse
and I could inflict a lifetime of abuse
anywhere I'd be killing you
my anger still persists
and it will not desist until I manifest on you
it will not desist until I manifest
wouldn't it be swell to test how thin I wear
. . .

have you found the person
that you want to spend your life with
or do you want?
do you want another . . .
you can't proscribe affection
because you're scared to live about it
do you want another boy?
can't erase the other one
so we waste each other
character lies in intent
. . .
|

I know you'll never lose
what's lost inside you
you're burning down the bridges
you've crossed
and you're still around
so nothing's certain
just let go
we deserve it
if I could chose to start it over
I'd exercise more discretion
the lies are abound
and nothing's certain
do you have good intentions?
come on
let go of those affectations
you don't fool anyone
come on
let go
if you want to take on
the years won't say what happened to you
what gains have you earned
what friends have you trampled over
when you're around
nothing's certain
just let go
we deserve it
come on and let go,
. . .

Regrets are worthless,
They misconstrue the past in sight and the sound,
And as lines recede,
No one speaks a word of his lust,
A word of dreams that are left to rust,
The TV's on and everyone stays calm.
Regrets are worthless,
The time has passed,
And no one understands,
And to say the least,
The years have been unfair.
I wanted to tell you I miss it,
I just want to let you know,
The last year has helped me grow,
I want to take you on the road,
Where we'd go I'll never know,
Will you come along?
It's easier when no place feels like home.
Regrets are worthless,
And the time has passed,
Which no one understands,
The years have been unfair to this point,
I said, I want out,
I want to take you out of this,
We're going to California,
And I want to take you on the ride.
It's easier when nowhere feels like...
I'll set things right,
This time, direction, in which to go,
. . .

this isn't about you or the life
she's lead through you
just every passing day leaves me wondering
what is really true
expecting to find you sleeping
soundly through and through
sadness comes misplaced
and ends are means
by which to uncover truth
happiness will come
when you are with the one
who can take you to places you never were
but always knew I'm coming for the ride
and you say it's too safe inside
you cannot realize
it's taking time
I'm taking it in stride
I'm sure it's safer inside
you just can't realize
but you're such a person
wake up every morning
every morning with her name in your head
you can survive
but you say I'm not half
what I wish-
I was so much back
then there is no end
and no room for pretend
feeling only this
I cannot fathom it
there's no escape from uncertain fate
there is no excuse
why did this happen to you
can our lives be made up from what's been left in time
you're feeling
time crushing at the spine
and you're tired
and I'm tired
we're so tired
yeah
you're tired inside
you just can't realize what's wrong
or what it's like to be
something on you've come a long way
and I know everything feels gone
will you see this through
or will you say it's through
. . .
|
|
if I shut my eyes
I'd never see you
the lies would vanish too
I'd have to squint to find truth
what's right?
the weight is huge to reach conclusions
where were you when conscience called
what a mess we're in now
pulling out would be twice as hard
than to live it all down
. . .
|

you can say I knew it all along
that you were all I wanted
to know the pain has made you grow strong
the scars inside have made you beautiful
stop breathing for me
you said it's your right to shun dependence
and you shun
and you're scared to accept
someone to share your regrets
when you're aching
you go it alone
when you want to
you take what you need to make you whole
I know it's not easy
I know I can't feel through what you have been and trust
don't come easy
'cause to trust is to depend
and who wants to give up that part of them
you know you can have it
if you want to
I'll find you unrelated, cultivated
when you wake up incubated in me
you're free to leave
. . .

Step outside and listen.
As you cut through the tension,
the world is crumbling down around you-it's found you.
When you woke up yesterday,
there was nothing left for me to say to you
because you wanted me to be true.
When all you feel is pain,
ands somehow things have changed I'll be coming home to you.
When I forgot to call,
you knew it all,
it was coming down on you.
Will you still be waiting,
that's something I can't ask you to be.
Will you be still waiting for me?
I'm waiting for you and something is wrong,
but I just can't put my finger on it.
You never listened and you'll never listen now,
you know what I'm about,
but is that sufficient?
Do you hear the words I say?
It hurts when you talk that way.
You say you'll listen cause you'd like to live together lives,
but come on,
you could have any other boy to take my place and hold when you're feeling
alone.
How can you say that I'm supposed to stay when you talk on to me that way?
Oh come on.
I can't see what's supposed to be,
but if you trust me it might turn ok.

she's rising
and I'm sinking
I'm losing sleep
she's resting
sound in bed with such variety
I'm driving
and she's finding
that she'll survive
when I'm long gone
do I stay in your mind at least?
there's so much time
and nowhere left to go
she's overcompensating
for what she can never let go of
there's so much time
and nowhere left to go
am I just an escape
for time to pass through
she's lying
and I'm thinking
she's trying to forget it all
a memory of the past I'll be
I'm buying
that she's trying
the threat is clear
and growing strong
I dream to have such clarity
it's all I'm thinking about
I guess I'll figure it out
I'll think
I'll drink to each new lesson
ignore the passing of days
eventually I'll fade
and in the end
. . .

Fraying all the ends
You are the last one who can recognize his friends
And nothing ever changes
You're always exchanging peace of mind
For everything you want
Everything.
You want it all
I can see it in your eyes
I can see right through you
There's nothing to you
You’re telling lies
And you'll surround yourself with
Everyone who says what you need to feel all right
Why can’t you be strong?
Fraying all the ends
You are the last one who can recognize his friends
And nothing ever changes
You're always exchanging peace of mind
For everything you want
Everything.
You want it all
I can see it in your eyes
I can see right through you
There's nothing to you
You conjure lies
And you'll surround yourself with
Everyone who says what you need to feel all right
Everyone who speaks the words
That make you perpetually contrived
They say what you want to hear
Say what you want to hear
What you want to
. . .
