My baby's on the level
And I try to read her mind
She's on the straight and narrow
I'm guessin' all the time
And I can see the road
If I'm lookin' at the signs
I'm carryin' the load
And steppin' outta line
My baby's on the level (my baby's on the level)
I try to read her mind (I try to read her mind)
She's on the straight and narrow (she's on the straight and narrow)
I'm guessin' all the time (and I'm guessin' all the time)
Well, how can I see the road (how can I see the road)
If I'm lookin' at the signs (if I'm lookin' at the signs)
I'm carryin' the load (I'm carryin' a load)
And steppin' outta line (and steppin outta line)
Oh baby, baby
Oh baby, baby
Oh baby, baby
How was I supposed to know
That something wasn't right here
Oh baby baby
I shouldn't have let you go
And now you're out of sight, yeah
Show me, how you want it to be
Tell me baby
'Cause I need to know now what we've got
[CHORUS:]
My loneliness is killing me
I must confess, I still believe
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
Give me a sign
Hit me baby one more time
Oh baby, baby
The reason I breathe is you
Boy you got me blinded
Oh baby, baby
There's nothing that I wouldn't do
That's not the way I planned it
Show me, how you want it to be
Tell me baby
'Cause I need to know now what we've got
[Repeat CHORUS]
Oh baby, baby
Oh baby, baby
Ah, yeah, yeah
Oh baby, baby
How was I supposed to know
Oh pretty baby
I shouldn't have let you go
I must confess, that my loneliness
Is killing me now
Don't you know I still believe
That you will be here
And give me a sign
Hit me baby one more time
[Repeat CHORUS]
I must confess that my loneliness
Is killing me now
Don't you know I still believe
That you will be here
And give me a sign
Hit me baby one more time
You have a chance to really shine now
Well patience never was one of your true virtues
Stop trying to control everything and f*** what they say,
what do you have to prove?
So why am I waiting, this life that I'm wasting, if that's what you mean
So why am I waiting,Yeah, this life that I'm wasting, if that's what you mean
How will this be when all is said and done, will I know where I'm from remember me
Where will I be, I guess I'm on the run and time is catching up behind me, behind me , yeah, behind me yeah, behind me
I'm scared to be the only one who sees
The hourglass run dry 'cause too much time went by
Why do I try to prove that I will be ready for everything thrown at me
So why am I waiting, this life that I'm wasting, if that's what you mean
So why am I waiting,Yeah, this life that I'm wasting, if that's what you mean
How will this be when all is said and done, will I know where I'm from remember me
Where will I be, I guess I'm on the run and time is catching up behind me yeah
How will this be when all is said and done, will I know where I'm from remember me, yeah
Where will I be, I guess I'm on the run and time is catching up behind me
These thoughts trickle down, imaginary lines cut through the ground[x2]
So why am I waiting, this time that I'm wasting, if that's what you mean
So why am I waiting, this time that I'm wasting, if that's what you mean, yeah
How will this be when all is said and done, will I know where I'm from remember me
Where will I be, I guess I'm on the run and time is catching up behind me yeah
How will this be when all is said and done, will I know where I'm from remember me, yea
Where will I be, I guess I'm on the run and time is catching up behind me
"Recovery is something that you have to work
on every single day and it's
something that doesn't
get a day off."
I know you don't mean to be mean to me
'Cause when you want to you can make me feel like we belong
We belong
Lately you make me feel all I am is a back-up plan
I say I'm done and then you smile at me and I forget
Everything I said
I buy into those eyes
And into your lies
You say you'll call, but I know you
You say you're coming home, but I know you
You say you'll call, but I know you won't
You say you'll call, but I know you won't
I wish you were where you're supposed to be
Close to me
But here I am just staring at this candle burning out
And still no sound
Of footsteps on my stairs
Or your voice anywhere
You say you'll call, but I know you
You say you're coming home, but I know you
You say you'll call, but I know you won't
You say you'll call, but I know you won't
You say you'll call, but I know you
You say you're coming home, but I know you
You say you'll call, but I know you won't
You say you'll call, but I know you won't
"Recovery is something that you have to work
on every single day and it's
something that doesn't

It's made up of lonely moments
There was always a moment there when I knew.
You always gave installments,
Always knew you concentrated and grew.
And I believe in reinvention,
Do you believe that life is holding the clue?
Take away all the lonely moments,
Give me full communication with you.
Your smile, shine a little light, alright?
Don't hide, shine a little light,
Give up on your pride.
Do you believe in reinvention,
Do you believe that life is holding the clue?
Any way to face the silence,
Any way to face the pain that kills you.
Your smile, shine a little light, alright?
Don't hide, shine a little light,
Give up on your pride.
Give up on your pride, the moment's gone;
Give up on your smile, life is long.
So, I seen a bad dream, that you were gone:
I got bitten on the soul, my blood will run.
Give up on your pride, the moment's gone;
Give up on your smile, life is long.
So I seen a bad dream, you were gone:
You're bitter and cold, my blood will run.

You can keep your secrets
But that's all you get to keep
You can keep your mindset lost in misery
Keep me in the dark
With the truth is where I'll sit
Put me in the closet, but I just can't fit
I'm slowly dying by watching you
I'm watching you, watching me
I'm wanting you, wanting me
I'm watching you, watching me
I'm wanting you, wanting me
I see your pictures of the past
They haunt me
I can see the truth, but I just won't believe
And now you're skeletons are taunting me
I just can't face all my memories
I'm slowly dying by watching you
I'm watching you, watching me
I'm wanting you, wanting me
I'm watching you, watching me
I'm wanting you, wanting me
As I fall apart inside
On and on, It's killing me this time
As I suffer and I die
On and on and on and on
I'm dying for you
Yeah, I'm dying for you
I'm dying for you
I'm watching you, watching me
I'm wanting you, wanting me
I'm watching you, watching me
I'm wanting you, wanting me
I'm dying for you
"Recovery is something that you have to work
on every single day and it's
something that doesn't
get a day off."
Circling your, circling your, circling your head
Contemplating everything you ever said
Now I see the truth I got a doubt
A different motive in your eyes
And now I'm out, see you later
I see your fantasy
You want to make it a reality paved in gold
See inside, inside of our heads, yeah
Well, now that's over
I see your motives inside
Decisions to hide
Back off, I'll take you on
Headstrong to take on anyone
I know that you are wrong
Headstrong, we're headstrong
Back off, I'll take you on
Headstrong to take on anyone
I know that you are wrong
And this is not where you belong
I can't give everything away
I won't give everything away
Conclusions manifest, your first impression's
Got to be your very best
I see you're full of **** and that's alright
That's how you play, I guess you get through
Every night, well, now that's over
I see your fantasy
You want to make it a reality paved in gold
See inside, inside of our heads, yeah
Well, now that's over
I see your motives inside
Decisions to hide
Back off, I'll take you on
Headstrong to take on anyone
I know that you are wrong
Headstrong, we're headstrong
Back off, I'll take you on
Headstrong to take on anyone
I know that you are wrong
And this is not where you belong
Where you belong?
(I can't give everything away)
This is not where you belong
(I won't give everything away)
I know, I know all about, I know, I know all about
I know, I know all about, I know, I know all about
Your motives inside and your decision to hide
Back off, I'll take you on
Headstrong to take on anyone
I know that you are wrong
Headstrong, we're headstrong
Back off, I'll take you on
Headstrong to take on anyone
I know that you are wrong
And this is not where you belong
Where you belong?
This is not were you belong
(I can't give everything away)
This is not were you belong
(I won't give everything away)
This is not were you belong
"Recovery is something that you have to work
on every single day and it's
something that doesn't
get a day off."
You're on my back when the water gets to deep for you to breathe
A crutch for you that won't always be there
Hide in the dark another day, the fear in you is hear to stay
So keep the f*** away from me and learn to trust the words I say
I conjure up the thought of being gone
But I'd probably even do that wrong
I try to think about which way
Would I be able to and would I be afraid
Cause oh I'm bleeding out inside
Oh I don't even mind (Yeah)
It's all your fault
You called me beautiful
You turned me out
And now I can't turn back
I hold my breath
Because you were perfect
But I'm running out of air
And it's not fair
Da da dada da dada da
Da dadadadadada da dadadadadada
I'm trying to figure out what else to say (What else could I say)
To make you turn around and come back this way (Would you just come back this way)
I feel like we could be really awesome together
So make up your mind cause it's now or never (oh)
It's all your fault
You called me beautiful
You turned me out
And now I can't turn back
I hold my breath
Because you were perfect
But I'm running out of air
And it's not fair
I would never pull the trigger
But I've cried wolf a thousand times
I wish you could
Feel as bad as I do
I have lost my mind
It's all your fault
You called me beautiful
You turned me out
And now I can't turn back
I hold (I hold) my breath (My breath)
Because you were perfect
But I'm running out of air (running out of air)
And it's not fair
(Oh yeah
It's all your fault)
I hold my breath
Because you were perfect
But I'm running out of air
And it's not (It's not) fair
"Recovery is something that you have to work
on every single day and it's
something that doesn't
get a day off."
Something for the pain, just to kill this feeling
Though we look awake, Inside we're all still sleeping
And I've spent my time here alive, but barely there.
Do you believe we will ever make it?
Do you think we'll ever really see?
"Recovery is something that you have to work
on every single day and it's
something that doesn't
get a day off."
