No Way Out
03:37

V1
Lucy said to me one day,
Everything will be okay
Just as long as you can close your eyes
Cause the pain it hurts too bad
And she often feels so sad
Feeling left out on the inside
CHORUS
And she's got her eyes closed and the world shuts down
Always running in circles when there's no way out
Wonders if they'll miss her when she's not around
But there's no way to find out
'Cause there's no way out!
V2
Life is a mistery,
Often lost in history
Everyone but her can seem so fine
Cause the days they go so fast
And nothing ever seems to last
Stuck somewhere and left behind!

Consequence
02:26
|
|||
Verse 1
I want to see inside
The broken shadows of your mind
Show me how to fight
And face the consequence
Verse 2
I want to feel you breathe
The way you have me on my knees
Take over everything
And face the consequence
CHORUS
I say goodnight as I pull up the sheets
And I lay my head down, fall right into dreams
It's like I'm flying, I fly right out to the sky
Til I'm home and I stop and I look at my life
And no I'm not down, with the shit you all do
All I know is I'm fighting to survive, just like you!

Fragile Soul
03:52
|
|||
Verse 1
Oh, there's a million ways to
Call your name
Reach out, and take a load off
All the guilt, must stay
Chorus
This is not my illusion
This is all that I know
HIdden between my contusions
Lies a fragile, fragile slow
Verse 2
Oh, there's a million ways to
See your face
Speak out, before you let go
of your last bit of faith

Misplaced
03:21
|
|||
Sing me the song of hope
Sing me the song of love
I wander as I walk away
I wander why we're all misplaced
Sing me the song of truth
Sing me the song of something new
I wander as I walk away
I wander why we're all misplaced

Out of Sight
04:04
|
|||
V1
You don't know what it's like,
What it's like to be me
Hazard lights, caution tape
Caution tape is all I see
Pre-Chorus
Shadows dance around the thieves of night
Broken stairs, empty house.. Out of sight
CHORUS
It's always raining, it never seems to stop
I feel like I'm losing my grip
There's no more goodbyes once you have already left
Please, please help me rest.
V2
I don't know what it's like
What it's like to be free
All this pain, left inside
Left inside a part of me
Pre-Chorus
The noose around my neck is closing tight
Broken stares, empty words.. Out of sight, out of sight
CHORUS
SOLO
BRIDGE
Do you want to play a game with me?
Poppy fields will bring endless sleep

Gone Before I Knew
03:26
|
|||
V1
You called me up on the phone,
Said there's something wrong
But if I had believed you
I wouldn't be writing this song
(writing this song)
Chorus
The last thing you said to me
was I love you
I realized that was just a dream
You were gone before I knew
There was nothing I could do...
V2
It's been a long road here,
I've had to forget
All the times you were near
It's a sign we haven't met
Chorus
V3
There is nothing I could do,
Oh baby, yeah
There is nothing I could do
You were gone before I knew!!

I'm Allowed
02:54
|
|||
Here I stand
on the brink of insanity!
Wonderin'
What is real or just fantasy??
I live in a nightmare!
And I try to fight
To make it through the night
Chorus
Follow me,
I know the way to get us out
Take it slow
You never know who is around
This time I'll not fall down
(not fall down)
This time, I'm allowed
V2
Here I wait
for something I will never see
Testing fate
'Cause now the joke's on me
I live in a daydream
And I try to stay
Always awake
Oh,

Doppelganger
02:53
|
|||
Verse 1
On broken roads we go, drifting alone
With dirty teeth and hands, we push through the unknown
I slept with your secrets as you buried me...
Whole... you buried me whole.
Chorus
There are days, there are ways
It was a stupid phase
Now you're gone (now you're gone)
Take it back, now relax
Cause I'm on the right path
But I'm wrong (but I'm wrong)
Doppelganger,
You're no stranger
Verse 2
Performing for the scene, we play out every line
Like a thief who washes clean, we all wait for our time
You made me follow you in spite of myself!
Oh....and now it's hell
Chorus (til end)

Noon on Friday
03:07
|
|||
V1
There's something to be said
about the life we have led
There's something to be had
if we can let ourselves feel not so bad
Chorus
The world is full of people
who didn't kill themselves
didn't kill themselves today
Even if you never leave them
They might as well
just fade away
V2
The magic has left you
feeling alone and confused
It's Friday afternoon
Everything we have always ends too soon

For You
04:08
|
|||
V1
Labored smiles bring to me
Questions of insecurity
Do you wish me well
Or should I go to hell?
Chorus
I'll go ahead and
take the first hit,
for you
And I will, carry on
until this song,
is through
Verse 2
A puppet dances for you
Applaud them just like you do
But what you still can't see
Is that I'm just a memory
Chorus
|

11. |
Not a Good Day
02:43
|
|||
V1
I guess today's not gonna be very good for me
The floor below is falling out underneath
Chorus
I'm starting to think like you
There will never be a way to feel something new
Let's just hold out until the end
V2
If I just take the time to explain it all you'd see,
That the devil in you is the same devil in me
Chorus
I'm starting to think like you
There will never be a way to feel something new
Let's just hold out until the end
Out of everything I know
There is nothing you can give me to make me whole
I'm trying to hold on 'til the end
V1 again

Leave Me Out
03:46
|
|||
Verse 1
When were you going to tell me that you left town?
Everyone around me is feeling down (feeling down)
Chorus
But if you don't know by now (you don't know)
There will always be a reason to doubt
Better yet, leave me out
Verse 2
You said you're gonna break free before you drown.
How come you never believe words from your own mouth? (words from your own mouth)
Chorus
Bridge
There is no other choice but to forget
(There never),there never was any regret
(solo over verse chords x4)
Chorus

Scorned
04:54
|
|||
V1
If these are my final words
I want you to know, I never meant to make you hurt
When I was a child, I thought I knew
The part of me that is devouring you... as I lay here in waste
Chorus
It's much more than you can take
These chains are about to break
My feet are bloodied and worn
These scars on my soul are torn
Oh oh, Oh oh,
I've been burned and scorned
V2
Ambiguity is not my style
But then again, who knows what is worth your while?
Judgement day will come for me
But until then, I will fight to be free...instead of lost at sea!!
Chorus
V3
The battles here are left unknown
I, alone, must pay the toll....
Bet against my soul....
Oooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh............

V1
It's not up to you to decide
in fact it's time you start to realize (realize)
Chorus
You left ghosts
You left ghosts behind
You left ghosts
A part of you must know
You left ghosts
There is no other way I see
I'm bound to lose control
(something's taking over me)
I'm bound to lose control
(something's taking over me)
V2
The future's set in crystal balls
What we know means nothing at all
Chorus
Bridge
The veil is lifting over me
I'm ready to be set free
Judge not until you're judged
I guess I'm feeling good enough!!!!
Chorus
|

15. |
||||
V1
I've been taken by surprise
Every day of my life
There is never a right way
But I'll keep fighting through the pain
Chorus
Write me a song
Sing me a line
Let me know am I still worth your time?
Write me a song
Tell me the truth
Could it be that you're over me too?
V2
Unfortunate despair
You wear the colors well
If I could open your eyes
Maybe it won't be too late too try.
