If I could do what I did to you
The same to me that I would love for you to see
That I sleep with remorse
And regret hangs round my door
For ever more.
Mutha****as be drivin me up the walls
Hopin that I fall but they can suck my balls
Straight jacket, strap it
In a padded room when some punk niggaz can't hack it
Distracted from our reality
Now I'm let out on a minor technicality
They all ****ed up now
Cause they let a nigga back on the street somehow
I'm lookin for someone like me
Livin in my own world to my own degree
On the loose in the city lookin at the ho wit the big titties
Lookin at me and I feel shitty
A little tensed up gettin hot
Cause she looks like my girl who just smoked at the crack spot
I'm tryin to find ways to cope
But I ain't ****in round wit the gauge or a rope
I'm havin illusions I'm havin illusions drivin me mad inside
I'm havin illusions I'm havin illusions ****in me up in my mind
I'm havin illusions I'm havin illusions drivin me mad inside
I'm havin illusions I'm havin illusions ****in me up in my mind
Regrets collect like old friends
Here to relive your darkest moments
I can see no way, I can see no way
And all of the ghouls come out to play
And every demon wants his pound of flesh
But I like to keep some things to myself
I like to keep my issues drawn
It's always darkest before the dawn
And I've been a fool and I've been blind
I can never leave the past behind
I can see no way, I can see no way
I'm always dragging that horse around
And our love is pastured such a mournful sound Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground
So I like to keep my issues drawn
But it's always darkest before the dawn
Let us go then you and I, when the evening is spread out against the sky, like a patient etherized upon a table

She can't see the landscape anymore
It's all painted in her grief
All of her history etched out at her feet
Now all of the landscape, it's just an empty place
Acres of longing, mountains of tenderness
Cause she's just like the weather, can't hold her together
Born from dark water, daughter of the rain and snow
Cause it's burning through the bloodline
It's cutting down the family tree
Growing in the landscape, darling, in between you and me
She wants the silence but fears the solitude
She wants to be alone and together with you
So she ran to the lighthouse, hoped that it would help her see
She saw that the lighthouse had been washed out to sea
Cause she's just like the weather, can't hold her together
Born from dark water, daughter of the rain and snow
Cause it's burning through the bloodline
It's cutting down the family tree
Growing in the landscape, darling, in between you and me
I wanna give you back the open sky
Give you back the open sea
Open up the ages, darling, for you to see
You put the gun into your mouth to bite
You pull it and spit out
Cause it's running in the family
All the richer between you and me
Cause she's just like the weather, can't hold her together
Born from dark water, daughter of the rain and snow
Cause it's burning in the bloodline
It's cutting down the family tree
Growing in the landscape, darling, in between you and me
Let us go then you and I, when the evening is spread out against the sky, like a patient etherized upon a table
- T.S. Elliot
On the other side of a street I knew
Stood a girl that looked like you
I guess that's deja vu
But I thought this can't be true
'Cause you moved to west L.A or New York or Santa Fe
Or where ever to get away from me
Oh but that one night
Was more than just right
I didn't leave you cause I was all through
Oh I was overwhelmed and frankly scared as hell
Because I really fell for you
Oh I swear to ya, I'll be there for ya
This is not a drive by
Just a shy guy looking for a two ply
Hefty bag to hold my love
When you move me everything is groovy
They don't like it sue me, mm way you do me
Oh I swear to you, I'll be there for you
This is not a drive by
On the other side of a downward spiral
My love for you went viral
And I loved you every mile you drove away
But now here you are again
So let's skip the "how you been"
And get down to the "more than friends" at last
Oh but that one night
Is still the highlight
I didn't need you until I came to
And I was overwhelmed and frankly scared as hell
Because I really fell for you
Oh I swear to you, I'll be there for you
This is not a drive by
Just a shy guy looking for a two ply
Hefty bag to hold my love
When you move me everything is groovy
They don't like it sue me, mm way you do me
Oh I swear to ya, I'll be there for ya
This is not a drive by
Please believe that when I leave
There's nothing up my sleeve but love for you
And a little time to get my head together too
On the other side of a street I knew
Stood a girl that looked like you
I guess that's deja vu
But I thought this can't be true, 'cause
Oh I swear to you, I'll be there for you
This is not a drive by
Just a shy guy looking for a two ply
Hefty bag to hold my love
When you move me everything is groovy
They don't like it sue me, mm way you do me
Oh I swear to ya, I'll be there for ya
This is not a drive by

Everybody, put up your hands
Say: ”I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love”
Feel the beat now, if you've got nothing left
Say: ”I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love”
Back it up now, you've got a reason to live
Say: ”I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love”
Feelin' good now, don't be afraid to get down
Say: ”I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love”
When I'm gone, are you gonna miss me? Are you even listening? Do you even care about anything at all?
I found a box of memories,
Read a letter, dropped a tear where you signed your name...
And turnin' the page, smearing the ink and the "love always." Girl Boy, I always start this way,
Then, I end up in a bottle screaming out your name,
And punching the walls, carrying on like I've gone insane.
In the mirror, I can see the man that just shook his head with no remorse...
Watched an angel crying tears, packing all her things as she walked out the door.
'Cause there ain't nothing like a memory,
When it's coming on strong like a hurricane. How can love like that just up and walk away? It's killing me, baby.
It's got me pouring up another drink.
Bourbon's hittin' me hard like a freight train.
With my back against a wall or on my knees,
When the worst of your memory gets the best of me.
I remember it all too well-
Riding 441 down to Milledgeville.
Crossing the bridge as the sun set on lake St. Clair. I couldn't wait to see your smile, but all I saw was tears in your pretty eyes. That said it all, it was all down hill from there
And I remember you saying "baby, please don't give up on me."
Aw, but baby, this stubborn man is gonna lie in the bed he made.
'Cause there ain't nothing like a memory,
When it's coming on strong like a hurricane. How can love like that just up and walk away? It's killing me, baby.
It's got me pouring up another drink.
Bourbon's hittin' me hard like a freight train.
With my back against a wall or on my knees,
When the worst of your memory gets the best of me.
'Cause there ain't nothing like a memory,
When it's coming on strong like a hurricane. How can love like that just up and walk away? It's killing me, baby.
It's got me pouring up another drink.
Bourbon's hittin' me hard like a freight train.
With my back against a wall or on my knees,
When the worst of your memory gets the best of me.
I'd move mountains if you asked me to
I'd swim the seven seas,
I'll be the one to hold the torch for you
I'd do anything you asked of me.
-
I guess I've been running round town, leaving my tracks,
Burning out rubber, driving too fast,
But I've got to slow right down.
Back to the moment at the very start,
From the very first day you had my heart,
I guess I've got to slow right down.
Now I'll play your ghost as my ace, whenever I'm led astray.
But I am actually good, can't help it if we're tilted.
I'm in my right place, don't be a downer.
I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house
That don't bother me
I can take a few tears now and them and just let them out
I'm not afraid to cry every once in a while
Even though going on with you gone still upsets me
There are days every now and again i pretend I'm ok
But now tonight was gets me
What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
Never knowin
What could have been
And not seein that loving you
Is what I was tryin to do
It's hard to deal with the pain of losing you everywhere I go
But I'm doin it
It's hard to force that smile when I see our old friends and I'm alone
Still hard getting up getting dressed dealing with this regret
But I know
If I could do it over
I would trade give away all the words that I saved in my heart
That I left unspoken
"I believe in running through the rain and crashing into the person you love and having your lips bleed on each other"
Take me with you
I start to miss you
Take me home
I don't wanna be alone tonight
And I do want to show you
I will run to you to you till I
Can't stand on my own anymore
I cross my heart and hope to die

Everyone leaves,
In the end
Everything dies,
In the end
It doesn't matter how hard you hold on
Everyone leaves
In the end
It doesn't matter, how hard you hold on
It doesn't matter how hard
It doesn't matter, how hard you hold on
It doesn't matter how hard
It doesn't matter,
It doesn't matter,
It doesn't matter how hard you hold on
(how hard can you, do you, want to, hold on?)
It doesn't matter how hard you hold on
Remember when I cried to you a thousand times
I told you everything
You know my feelings
It never crossed my mind
That there would be a time
For us to say goodbye
What a big surprise
But I'm not lost
I'm not gone
I haven't forgot
[Chorus:]
These feelings I can't shake no more
These feelings are running out the door
I can feel it falling down
And I'm not coming back around
These feelings I can't take no more
This emptiness in the bottom drawer
It's getting harder to pretend
And I'm not coming back around again
Remember when...
I remember when it was together till the end
Now I'm alone again
Where do I begin?
I cried a little bit
You died a little bit
Please say there's no regrets
And say you won't forget
But I'm not lost
I'm not gone
I haven't forgot
[Chorus:]
These feelings I can't shake no more
These feelings are running out the door
I can feel it falling down
And I'm not coming back around
These feelings I can't take no more
This emptiness in the bottom drawer
It's getting harder to pretend
And I'm not coming back around again
Remember when...
That was then
Now it's the end
I'm not coming back
I can't pretend
Remember When
[Chorus:]
These feelings I can't shake no more
These feelings are running out the door
I can feel it falling down
And I'm not coming back around
These feelings I can't take no more
This emptiness in the bottom drawer
It's getting harder to pretend
And I'm not coming back around again..
Everyday I feel the same,
Stuck, and I can never change
Sucked into a black balloon,
Spat into an empty room
Was it really worth it? Did I really deserve it?
It happens when you're hurtin'
It cut me out the surface
Of my heart
I'm living dead only alive
When I pretend that I have died I haven't lived life, I haven't lived love
Just a birds eye view from the sky above
I'm dead I'm living dead
Got bubble wrap around my heart Waiting for my life to start
But everyday it never comes
Permanently at square one When it's late at night
I'm so dissatisfied
The weight of an empty life
Will lessen in the moonlight
In the light
Do you know what it's like when
You're scared to see yourself?
Do you know what it's like when
You wish you were someone else
Who didn't need your help to get by?
Do you know what it's like
To wanna surrender?
[Chorus:]
I don't wanna feel like this tomorrow
I don't wanna live like this today
Make me feel better
I wanna feel better
Stay with me here now
And never surrender
Do you now what it's like when
You're not who you wanna be?
Do you know what it's like to
Be your own worst enemy
Who sees the things in me I can't hide?
Do you know what it's like
to wanna surrender?
[Chorus]
Make me feel better,
You make me feel better,
You make me feel better,
Put me back together.
[Chorus]
Put me back together,
Never surrender,
Make me feel better.
You make me feel better,
Stay with me here now,
And never surrender.

What shall we use to fill the empty spaces
Where waves of hunger roar?
Shall we set out across the sea of faces
In search of more and more applause?
Shall we buy a new guitar?
Shall we drive a more powerful car?
Shall we work straight through the night?
Shall we get into fights?
Leave the lights on?
Drop bombs?
Do tours of the east?
contract diseases?
Bury bones?
Break up homes?
Send flowers by phone?
Take to drink?
Go to shrinks?
Give up meat?
Rarely sleep?
Keep people as pets?
Train dogs?
Race rats?
Fill the attic with cash?
Bury treasure?
Store up leisure?
But never relax at all
With our backs to the wall.
I can barely move
I can barely see where we’re going now
The road is washed out from the river that flooded just north of town
We stick to the plan we laid out but we know the saying The best plans of both mice and men can go terribly wrong
And probably will, so please
Nobody speaks, nobody get any smart ideas
If we don’t have any heroics we may just get out of here And home to your families by dinner time safely and soundly sleeping
Cause we don’t want trouble, we’ll take what we came for and we’ll leave quiet Or maybe we will tear you up, take what you love, and burn it down, and burn it down
Nobody moves, nobody moves and no one gets hurt
Nobody opens their mouth and we have nothing to worry about We’ll keep keep keep keep you alive cause we always need bargaining chips
(For their lives, we will trade; thee will make your getaway)
We’ll keep keep keep keep you alive cause you’re pretty
And we need something to look at while we tear you up, take what you love
And burn it down, and burn it down
You swear to build, we swear to come and burn it down and burn it down
So watch my chest heave
As this last breath leaves me
I am trying to be
What you're dying to see
I feel like "**** man,
Can't take this, anymore,
This heart, break this."
This is life that's so thankless,
How could he just forsake us?
Racist he makes us
Hate us he gave us
Nothing but no trust
And I am so ****ed up
So let this gun bond us
Let's hide by this lust
And once we are just dust
He'll know that he loved us

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag,
Drifting through the wind
Wanting to start again?
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
Like a house of cards,
One blow from caving in?
Do you ever feel already buried deep?
6 feet under screams but no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there's still a chance for you
'Cause there's a spark in you
You just gotta ignite the light, and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July
'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colours burst
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh"
You're gonna leave 'em all in "awe, awe, awe"
You don't have to feel like a wasted space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow
Maybe your reason why all the doors are closed
So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will glow
And when it's time, you'll know
You just gotta ignite the light, and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July
'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colours burst
Make 'em go "Oh, Oh, Oh"
You're gonna leave 'em all in "awe, awe, awe"
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
It's always been inside of you, you, you
And now it's time to let it through-ough-ough
'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go "Oh, Oh, Oh"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colours burst
Make 'em go "Oh, Oh, Oh"
You're gonna leave 'em all in "awe, awe, awe"

take me as you find me
i may seam strange or mad
but I'm just me
Killin' time before she struts her stuff,
She needs support and I've become the crutch.
She'll never know how much she means to me.
I'd play the game but I'm the referee.
Surrender every word, every thought every sound.
Surrender every touch, every smile, every frown.
Surrender all the pain we've endured until now.
Surrender all the hope that I lost you have found.
Surrender yourself to me.
Even though I know what I'm lookin' for,
She's got a brick wall behind her door.
I'd travel time and confess to her,
But I'm afraid she'd shoot the messenger.
This little lady is my life. She keeps me strong through everything <3
♫ I know I have a fickle heart and bitterness,
And a wandering eye, and a heaviness in my head ♫
She wrote, "I feel just like that painting, collecting dust on the wall
And every day you walk right by me, and don't know I'm there at all
And I can't think of one single reason, why I should be hanging around"
She signed it, "I hope that you'll miss me", and she drove herself out of town
Maybe he'll notice her now, maybe he'll open his eyes
Sometimes it takes somebody leaving for a man to realize
Maybe he'll tell her she's the only thing that he can't live without
Now that she's gone maybe he'll notice her now.
When he came home late that evening, he called her name down the hall
He saw the outline of the painting that used to hang there on the wall
And in it's place on the nail was a letter, he read it out loud to himself
And the loneliness began to take over and for once he knew just how she felt
Maybe he'll notice her now, maybe he'll open his eyes
Sometimes it takes somebody leaving for a man to realize
Maybe he'll tell her she's the only thing that he can't live without
Now that she's gone maybe he'll notice her now
He called her up, he said I have been such a fool
She said I will come back and boy I still love you
Maybe he'll notice her now, maybe he'll open his eyes
Sometimes it takes somebody leaving for a man to realize
Maybe he'll tell her she's the only thing that he can't live without
Now that she's gone maybe he'll notice her now
