Where have you gone? I haven't heard from you in days.. What'd I do wrong? You punish me in many ways. When I found you, You wore someone else's ring. Now, but things have changed.. What can I do? What can I say? What can I do, to put a smile on your face? I'll pull the trigger, spilling my blood, would that make you happy? I think that it would, I've got a feeling it would.. and maybe I'm wrong. Maybe you found some other plan. I'd go to hell and back, just to wake up in your bed. and please don't erase me, till you finish your scene, I wake up every night, and it's always just a dream.. What can I do? What can I say? What can I do, to put a smile on your face? I'll pull the trigger, spilling my blood, would that make you happy? I think that it would, I don't expect you at my funeral. I asked them to bury me when it's cold. Play no song, I want the ground to echo tears for me, but no one will cry.... no one will cry.. Just the rain falling down, like tears from the sky.. No one will, No one will, No one, No one will cry..

Blindfold 04:08
The morning to my window, only rain clouds in view. Through the cool air, I can hear the tree's, it reminds me of you, and I'm still here waiting.. How am I supposed to see, with hands over my eyes? I'm missing what's in front of me, and I'm not that blind.. Hands that have forsaken me, always forget lies. Who am I suppose to be? Make up your mind.. I'm still me, no matter what you want, no matter what you see, still me, for as long as I can possibly.. and no is not the answer, are you listening to me? Is there anything that I can say? To take me away?

Peel 05:07
Peel my skin off these rusted bones, I'm not about to leave.. I'm broken down, and don't have any tricks up my sleeve. So just encase you hadn't planned, to tare me limb from limb. Here's your chance, or I can just say you did.. Your smile could rip the world apart, in only just a moment of your time. When we met I was already dead, you brought me back to life.. Rip the heart right out of me, and tell me it's not yours. I'm in your hands, you see me bleed, but this is not your choice. I needed you to know that, you were everything to me. If I never, have enough, then this body I'll no longer need.. Your smile could rip the world apart, in only just a moment of your time. When we met I was already dead, you brought me back to life..

Not everything's as easy as it seems, and I'm learning, learning to be. Yesterdays can only be a dream, when I am burning, and you can't hear me scream. There's got to be someway, we could get out, of here. I close my eyes, and I'm at your mercy... Please hear me out, I can't do this without you. I'm falling apart at the seams. You're so full of doubt, you won't pick up the pieces. We're losing ourselves in this dream.. The month of June has taken you away, and I am hurting, hurting inside. You're the only thing that's, ever made me really feel alive. So why did you decide, to have to treat me this way? After everything.... Please hear me out, I can't do this without you. I'm falling apart at the seams. You're so full of doubt, you won't pick up the pieces. We're losing ourselves in this dream.. if only I could hold you for a second, I'd be fine.... At least for the tonight... Please hear me out, I can't do this without you. I'm falling apart at the seams. You're so full of doubt, you won't pick up the pieces. We're losing ourselves in this dream..

Your words fall like glass, from a shattered sky, the winds will take these thoughts away. No it's not fear, but a feeling, that cuts like a knife. Always unsure, you could be dreaming. We're all running away from life, answers don't come in pills, I don't think they ever will, so why not just make up your mind. and the truth will not hide it's face, no not this time. The ending that you saw, just didn't turn out the way we planned, now we're frozen here we stand, and we thaw still amazed at how things went wrong.. we try fixing what's falling apart. Your eyes paint the world, in all different shades, a light that takes all pain away. Like roots from a tree, start from the bottom, and assemble the rest of me. Closing your eyes, drift to my bed, set me on fire while I'm sleeping, drip your last tear, into my wound, then I can share you bleeding. and the truth will not hide it's face, no not for you. The ending that you saw, just didn't turn out the way we planned, now we're frozen here we stand, and we thaw still amazed at how things went wrong.. we try fixing what's falling apart. and your words fell, and I crumbled, like autumn leaves, under careless feet. hung for too long, wide awake, carelessly dreaming. Tied to no end, strung by a line, singing these songs without meanings. Catching myself, just as I fall, hoping that you would be here. You're my eyes, my tears, my heart, my cries, (No more tears) my pain, my anger, my love and my hate. my scars, my frown, my blood, this crown, (Dead Inside) the end, this passion, my lover, my friend, my wings, my fire, my deepest desire, (Throw me in) my hope, my will, my reason to try, the air, (this is it) my lungs, the way that I breathe, my fear, my pulse, you're all that I need.. no more tears...

Medicine 04:52
And when she walks, could I be the ground she's on? Then when she folds, she'll fall into me. And when she breathes, could I be her oxygen? That way if she needs me, I can always only be one breath away.. And there's something in the way she moves. It reminds me of life, and why we're alive.. and when she sleeps, could I be the dream she's in? Whatever she wants, I could give her anything. And when she's sick, could I be her medicine? Slow down her throat, bringing sweet relief and comfort, to her soul.. And there's something in the way she moves. It reminds me of life, and why we're alive.. We're tossed in,this ocean, we're bound to mix. We're spilling each other, and what come's next? like two pieces in a puzzle, we were fit for one another. And we're climbing, up this ladder, if we fall it, doesn't matter. We'll find safety, in each other, as we're gliding to the bottom, of this well.... where our wishes fell....

There's this wrecking ball, That's coming down. We knew all along, there was no way out. Now our city, lies on the ocean floor. Behold liberty, we won't beg for war.. Oh and it's sad, that we're crying out for freedom, in the land of the free. Things have gone all wrong, now the law just won't let me be me.... Where's that broken smile, I like to see? You can do nothing wrong, when you look at me. Oh, but your lies, they hurt everyone. No one will forgive you, for the damage done. Oh and it's sad, that we're crying out for freedom, in the land of the free. Things have gone all wrong, now the law just won't let me be me.... and who's crying out? I've nothing more to say. I'm not giving up on the city, I'm just giving up on you... There's this wrecking ball, that's coming down. Doing god knows what, to our quiet town. Lay my words to rest, must this city pay? This would be much different, if we would have my way... Oh and it's sad, that we're crying out for freedom, in the land of the free. Things have gone all wrong, now the law just won't let me be me.... who's free?
