Hide away things, they say
I know you'll end up blaming every single thing on me anyway
Fall apart, no one will know
I see you nervous when you feel me ripping at your clothes
Hear me, there's something I'm afraid to hide
And my conscience could burn a hole through my brain
And maybe you're the only good left in my veins
Follow me where I walk
I wanna take you to a place where we're alone so I can hear you talk
Put your mouth right on mine
I wanna prove that I'm a total waste of all your time
Hear me, there's something I'm afraid to hide
And my conscience could burn a hole through my brain
And maybe you're the only good left in my veins
I can't fix you, I can't fix me, I can't
I don't need it, I don't need this, you do
I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't lose you, I don't want this
Take it away from me
Take it away from me
When I'm gone, are you gonna miss me? Are you even listening? Do you even care about anything at all?
You see, I want the world to believe
That there's a light inside of me,
But it's time that I come clean;
I'm not what I seem, no.
Some would say I'm possessed, yeah,
But I'll confess I've just been obsessed
With life and death and emptiness, I guess. Can't you see? All of the change in me?
What do you want from me?!
What do you want from me?!.....
Time has run out, for me.
Everythings's distand and
I don't knowwhat to
belive.
It's so hard lost in the
world confusion.
And I need to leave, for
a while.
Life is so meaningless,
There is a nothing worth a
smile.
So goodbye, i'll miss you.
And i'm sorry, but
this is my fate.
Everything is
worthless, no one who
wants me to stay.
And i'm sorry, but
i've waited too long.
So here's my
goodbye, no one will
cry over my.
I'm not worth any
tears.
It's been the years, of
abuse.
Neglected to treat the
dissordes,
That controls my youth,
For so long.
I'm in a fleshy tomb, burried
up above the ground.
It's no use, why should I
hold on?
It's been five years, don't
need one more.
So goodbye, life's
abuse.
And i'm sorry, but
this is my fate.
Everything is
worthless, no one who
wants me to stay.
And i'm sorry, but
i've waited too long.
So here's my
goodbye, no one will
cry over my.
I'm not worth any
tears.
Close your eyes, so many days go by.
Easy to find what's wrong, harder to find what's right.
Dance With The Devil - Breaking Benjamin
There is nothing like driving so fast that you can see the thin line between life and death
BBQ food is good
You invite me out to eat it, I should
Go, but I'm feeling kind of nervous
And not quite myself
So I'm running late on purpose
And I know this won't help
How things have become between us
But if I go you'll give me hell
And that I don't know how to fix it
Is making me unwell, well
I arrive at your house
But you've just got up
And you are wearing a towel
And your eyes look dark
I help to dry your body
And I see your cut
So I give you a plaster
And we cover it up
I say "Have you been crying?"
And you say "Shut Up"
So we sit in the garden
And touch the grass
With our hands
The sun is going down now
And it's been okay
You tell me all these things you did
While I was away
And this worries me somewhat
But you say you're fine
Listen
Can you hear it?
Does it speak?
Will I feel it?
Will it hurt?
Am I near it?
I don't know
I don't know how more people haven't got mental health problems
Thinking is one of the most stressful things I've ever come across
And not being able to articulate what I want to say drives me crazy
I think I should try and read more books
And learn some new words
My sister used to read the dictionary
I'm going to start with that
I'd like to travel
I want to see India and the pyramids
A whale and that race with all the bicycles in France
I'm not sure about rivers, they scare me
But I love swimming, I'm good at it
And when I swim I think about numbers
And count the laps
When I was younger I saw a house burnt down
And I walked past it everyday for the next six years
Derelict, black, chalky and dangerous
I wondered if squatters lived there
I'm still not sure but I know there were never any parties cause it was ****
After a while the council got round to tidying out the town
Making it less offensive here and there
They said it was an eyesore so they let tore it down
Behind the house was a wall with a few bits of crappy graffiti
and the word **** written on it in giant letters
And now I walk past that
I like sitting in the park
And I like walking through it
I like taking my dogs there
And friends, and I like being alone
I like flowers and simplicity
I like compassion and thoughtful gifts I like being able to shout
But I wish I could be quiet When I'm quiet people think I'm sad
And usually I am
Sometimes when I'm at a busy train station
Somewhere big with the noisy trains like King's Cross
I feel like putting down my bags and shouting things out
because I've got something to say
Don't you want to share the guilt?
Don't think, just try and sleep
Just like the kids I've been navigating my way
Through the mind-numbing reality of a godless existence
Which, at this point in my hollow and vapid life
Has erased what little ambition I've got left
And I've embraced the calamity
With an attachment and a passive disinterest
Living out the back of my '97 Camry
Wondering how the hell I got myself into this
I guess it doesn't matter anyway
I don't care about nothing but you
I guess it doesn't matter anyway
'Cause I don't care about nothing
I don't care about nothing but you
No, I don't care about nothing
She said, "I'm sick of it all
Your little games are getting old
Your little songs are getting way too literal
How about some goddamn subtlety for a change?"
She said, "I feel like I've come untethered
In a room without walls
I'm drifting on the dark and empty sea of nothing
It doesn't feel bad, it feels like nothing at all"
I guess it doesn't matter anyway
I don't care about nothing but you
I guess it doesn't matter anyway
'Cause I don't care about nothing
And I had it maxed out
I had a feeling, oh
Nothing is working
And everything's bleeding, oh
I should've tapped out
Given into my demons, oh
It's alright, it's just a flesh wound
You said you'd never saw it coming
I'm pretty happy lying here with you
It's pretty good to feel something
I don't care about nothing but you
No, I don't care about nothing
I don't care about nothing but you
No, I don't care about nothing
And I had it maxed out
I had a feeling, oh
Nothing is working
And everything's bleeding, oh
I should've tapped out
Given into my demons, oh
And I had it maxed out (I had it maxed out)
And nothing is working (Nothing is working)
And everything's bleeding, oh
When I'm gone, are you gonna miss me? Are you even listening? Do you even care about anything at all?
You've fallen so long you got used to the wind
The hole in your chest left you nothing within
And all I can think of is why you can't leave me alone
Praying for something to open my eyes
Reach in my heart, but it's swarming of lies
And all I can think of is why you can't leave me alone
Surrounded by darkness would feel like a bless
Bullets and knives won't change any of this
Hold my self back 'cause an angel is guiding my way
Your halo
Tryin' to shine through in the dark
Somehow it got in my hands and I threw it away
Your halo
Was the only thing healing my stars
Trusted your halo whit me and I threw it away
I blame you for all the mistakes that I've made
Lying so warm and my memory fade
And all I can think off is letting you know I'm a ghost
Lost beyond reason you started to see
And all that extension was coming from me
And all that you dreamt of was crushed by the sound of my voice
Surrounded by darkness would feel like a bless
Bullets and knives won't change any of this
Hold my self back 'cause an angel is guiding my way
Your halo
Tryin' to shine through in the dark
Somehow it got in my hands and I threw it away
Your halo
Was the only thing healing my stars
Trusted your halo whit me and I threw it away
Threw it away
Threw it away
Your halo
Tryin' to shine through in the dark
Somehow it got in my hands and I threw it away
Your halo
Was the only thing healing my stars
Trusted your halo whit me and I threw it away
Threw it away, Threw it away
Close your eyes, so many days go by.
Easy to find what's wrong, harder to find what's right.
Dance With The Devil - Breaking Benjamin
There is nothing like driving so fast that you can see the thin line between life and death
A swimming pool with no bodies
Is a problem that we can fix
He dropped his clothes on the chaise lounge
And asked, "Are you gonna come in?"
And in the night the only light
Was the glow of the surface
As they slid in the rest of them
Continued their talking and drinking
They'll never notice us
So this is the difference between
Living and not living
These are just bodies
We have a purpose
And the gravity
Pulling us from them to we
The distance between our bodies
Is a problem that we can fix
They moved slow through the current and found
Their bodies touching
Her hands move to pull him under
For some kind of kiss
As he slides in the rest of them
Continue their talking and drinking
So this is the difference between
Living and not living
These are just bodies
We have a purpose
And the gravity
Pulling us from them to we
When I'm gone, are you gonna miss me? Are you even listening? Do you even care about anything at all?
please, if you're coming down to rescue me, now would be perfect.
oh non-believer, please believe me.
is there honestly nothing in this world
that keeps you living & breathing?
you're a ghost in your own
goddamn city.
I know of her face from my sleep
From my most favorite dreams
We meet as my body retreats
And I'm the most charming that I've never been
Please, pull me under
For one more embrace
For one small moment
For one more embrace
So I go through my colorless days
Just mindlessly wilting away
And I desperately wait through the night
For the ghost with the most beautiful eyes
Please, pull me under
For one more embrace
For one small moment
For one more embrace
I have finally built up the nerves
To be brave and solemnly dive into her, ah
As I stand where the ground meets the sky
Gazing down with the grin, I declare my goodbye
Please, pull me under
For one more embrace
For one small moment
For one more embrace
Here I will float away in faith
I'm floating to you
Here I will float away in faith
I'm floating to you
Here I will float away in faith
I'm floating to you
When I'm gone, are you gonna miss me? Are you even listening? Do you even care about anything at all?
It all just feels like I'm stuck here, suspended, at best underwhelming, what's wrong with me?
My conscious is calling but the world isn't all it's cracked up to be
I'm hopelessly hopeful
That I'm not stuck here suspended, in a world I pretended was right for me
Another window, another way out
I feel it coming, I'm pushing it down
Another window, another way out
Another window
I don't have the will or time to think of something to say to you
I see it in your almond eyes, a sure sign of nothing new
And if you wanna move down to a more hospitable latitude
I know it's not your fault
Another window, another way out
I feel it coming, but I'm pushing it down
Another window, another way out
Another window!
I've been around long enough, now don't you deceive me
You will never know unless you cut me open
And God knows, for every stitch that I have been sewing
You won't hesitate not to cut me open
Cut me
When I'm gone, are you gonna miss me? Are you even listening? Do you even care about anything at all?
I’m bathing in exhaustion
A never ending train wreck
I swear my legs, they function
But I’m assembled to crawl
I’m heading east of Benson to glorify a casket
Whether it's Swift Falls or St. Paul
I can’t spend another weekend at a funeral
I'll try again
I need psychologic paralyzing medicine
To forget who I am
Try again
Forever freeze in silence
I need to forget who I am
So I'll try again
I need something symbolic to rupture
I want to seek some unforeseen color
Please get me outside with sunlight
Reflecting off a waterfall
I can’t spend another weekend at a funeral
I'll try again
I need psychologic paralyzing medicine
To forget who I am
Try again
Forever freeze in silence
I need to forget who I am
So I'll try again
I'll try again
Need some medicine
Need some medicine
Will you twist my vision into a perfect blur?
Will you pull me underwater?
Drag me down headfirst?
I'll try again
I need psychologic
(I need this) paralyzing medicine
To forget who I am
Try again
(Again)
Forever freeze in silence
I need to forget who I am
So I'll try again
When I'm gone, are you gonna miss me? Are you even listening? Do you even care about anything at all?
I don't like my mind right now
Stacking up problems that are so unnecessary
Wish that I could slow things down
I wanna let go but there's comfort in the panic
And I drive myself crazy
Thinking everything's about me
Yeah, I drive myself crazy
'Cause I can't escape the gravity
I'm holding on
Why is everything so heavy?
Holding on
So much more than I can carry
I keep dragging around what's bringing me down
If I just let go, I'd be set free
Holding on
Why is everything so heavy?
It's down to this
I've got to make this life make sense
Can anyone tell what I've done
I miss the life
I miss the colors of the world
Can anyone tell where I am
'Cause now again I found myself so far down
Away from the sun that shines into the darkest place
I'm so far down away from the sun again
We used to only do this on the weekends
But now it’s almost every single night
I hear you down the hallway back there puking
I hear your pompous college friends; they’re puking outside
So, I pull your drawers and fill up your sink
Make everything exactly how you hate it all to be
Because I’m not trying to hold your hair
No, love won’t pass through me
Because I’m far too cynical for faith and make believe
'Cause there’s no such thing as love
We just felt vulnerable without a God
Without a crutch or anything else to lean on
So, I pull your drawers and fill up your sink
Make everything exactly how you hate it all to be
Because I’m not trying to hold your hair
No, love won’t pass through me
Because I’m far too cynical for faith and make believe
'Cause there’s no such thing as love
We just felt vulnerable without a God
Without a crutch
There’s nowhere else, nobody else, nothing
When I'm gone, are you gonna miss me? Are you even listening? Do you even care about anything at all?
I know the feeling
Of finding yourself stuck out on the ledge
And there ain't no healing
From cuttin' yourself with the jagged edge
I'm tellin' you that it's never that bad
And take it from someone who's been where your at
You're laid out on the floor and you're not sure
You can take this anymore
So just give it one more try
With a lullaby
And turn this up on the radio
If you can hear me now
I'm reachin' out to let you know
That you're not alone
And you can't tell, I'm scared as hell
'Cause I can't get you on the telephone
So just close your eyes
Well honey here comes a lullaby
Your very own lullaby
Please let me take you
Out of the darkness and into the light
'Cause I have faith in you
That you're gonna make it through another night
Stop thinkin' about the easy way out
There's no need to go and blow the candle out
Because you're not done, you're far too young
And the best is yet to come
So just give it one more try
With a lullaby
And turn this up on the radio
If you can hear me now
I'm reachin' out to let you know
That you're not alone
And you can't tell, I'm scared as hell
'Cause I can't get you on the telephone
So just close your eyes
Well honey here comes a lullaby
Your very own lullaby
Well everybody's hit the bottom
And everybody's been forgotten
Well everybody's tired of being alone
Yeah everybody's been abandoned
And left a little empty handed
So if you're out there barely hangin', on
Just give it one more try
With a lullaby
And turn this up on the radio
If you can hear me now
I'm reachin' out to let you know
That you're not alone
And you can't tell, I'm scared as hell
'Cause I can't get you on the telephone
So just close your eyes
Well honey here comes a lullaby
Your very own lullaby
Well honey here comes a lullaby
Your very own lullaby
(Lullaby, Nickelback)
*trigger warning...*
My legs are dangling off the edge
The bottom of the bottle is my only friend
I think I'll slit my wrists again and I'm gone, gone, gone
My legs are dangling off the edge
A stomach full of pills didn't work again
I'll put a bullet in my head and I'm gone, gone, gone
Gone too far and yeah I'm gone again
It's gone on too long, tell you how it ends
I'm sitting on the edge with my two best friends
Ones a bottle of pills, ones a bottle of Gin
I'm twenty stories up, yeah I'm up at the top
I'll polish off this bottle, now it's pushing me off
Asphalt to me has never looked so soft
I bet my momma found my letter, now shes calling the cops
I gotta take this opportunity before I miss it
'Cause now I hear the sirens and they're off in the distance
Believe me when I tell you that I've been persistent
'Cause I'm more scarred, more scarred than my wrist is
I've been trying too long, with too dull of a knife
But tonight I made sure that I sharpened it twice
I never bought a suit before in my life
But when you go to meet god, you know you wanna look nice
So if I survive, then I'll see you tomorrow
Yeah I'll see you tomorrow
My legs are dangling off the edge
The bottom of the bottle is my only friend
I think I'll slit my wrists again and I'm gone, gone, gone, gone
My legs are dangling off the edge
A stomach full of pills didn't work again
I'll put a bullet in my head and I'm gone, gone, gone, gone
We hit the sky, there goes the light
No more sun, why's it always night
When you can't sleep, well, you can't dream
When you can't dream, well, whats life mean?
We feel a little pity, but don't empathize
The old are getting older, watch a young man die
A Mother and a Son and someone you know
Smile at each other and realize you don't
You don't know what happened to that kid you raised
What happened to the Father, who swore he'd stay?
I didn't know 'cause you didn't say
Now Momma feels guilt, yea Momma feels pain
When you were young, you never thought you'd die
Found that you could but too scared to try
You looked in the mirror and you said goodbye
Climb to the roof to see if you could fly
So if I survive, then I'll see you tomorrow
Yeah I'll see you tomorrow
My legs are dangling off the edge
The bottom of the bottle is my only friend
I think I'll slit my wrists again and I'm gone, gone, gone, gone
My legs are dangling off the edge
A stomach full of pills didn't work again
I'll put a bullet in my head and I'm gone, gone, gone, gone
I wish that I could fly, way up in the sky
Like a bird so high
Oh I might just try
I wish that I could fly, way up in the sky
Like a bird so high
Oh I might just try
Oh I might just try
