Too tragic to stay with you,
Too static to try for you,
These scars they swallow hard,
The part of the past that's hollow and dark,
Too horrid to kill for you,
Too sordid to die with you, Unstable as always, come down,
Everything else is just dust and sound.
Separate, I've lost my only way,
Separate, I've lost my only way,
Separate, I've lost my only way,
See the shape, broken and thrown away,
I'd give it all away, come take it all away,
You can't resent the fear,
Somebody tell me how I got here,
I'd give it all to you, come take it it's all for you, The noise is so damn loud,
but everything else is just dust and sound.,
Separate, I've lost my only way,
Separate, I've lost my only way,
Separate, I've lost my only way,
See the shape, broken and thrown away.
I don't wanna do this anymore,
Everything's ****, everything's been taken, forsaken,
Gotta start it over cuz I'm hearing it backwards,
Don't make sense, don't feel better-
Who's better? It's not that simple,
You gotta figure it out before you make things difficult,
It's not a word-it's a problem, the problem was easy
Draw your conclusions-solutions?
Anybody else wanna run?
Contorting, distorting, I am undone,
One less propaganda nightmare fixture,
Are you getting the picture?
Separate, I've lost my only way,
Separate, I've lost my only way,
Separate, I've lost my only way,
See the shape, broken and thrown away,
Separate, I've lost my only way,
Separate, I've lost my only way,
Separate, I've lost my only way,
See the shape, broken and thrown away.
Oh god I want to hear you say,
I want to hear you say that you were wrong again
This is the first thing
I have understood:
Time is the echo of an axe
Within a wood.
Do you ever feel like breaking down?
Do you ever feel out of place?
Like somehow you just don't belong
And no one understands you
Do you ever wanna runaway?
Do you lock yourself in your room?
With the radio on turned up so loud
That no one hears you screaming
No you don't know what it's like
When nothing feels all right
You don't know what it's like
To be like me
To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life
I wanted to run but she made me crawl,
Ooooh oh oh, the sweetest thing,
Eternal fire, she turned me to straw,
Ooooh oh oh, the sweetest thing,
You know I got black eyes,
But they burn so brightly for her,
This is a blind kind of love,
Ooooh oh oh, the sweetest thing.
Oh god I want to hear you say,
I want to hear you say that you were wrong again
This is the first thing
I have understood:
Time is the echo of an axe
Within a wood.
Baby don't you holler, darlin' don't you bawl and shout
I'm feeling good, you know I'm gonna work it on out
I'm feeling good, I'm feeling oh so fine
Until tomorrow, but that's just some other time
This is the hardest thing I've ever had to do
I don't know where to turn
If I can't turn to you, no
Cause I made enough mistakes
To last us both a lifetime
And it'll take that long to realise
That you're not mine
Cause it seems like now
I've got a lot to be okay with
We never got to say we made it
My favourite colour's gone and faded
Makes me wonder, did we waste it
But you don't owe me anything
Don't hear me out, I'll just sing
If you don't wanna know
I understand, but just know
Oh, that you don't owe me anything
Don't listen to me, the words just sting
If you want me to go
I understand, but just know, oh
This is what it feels like to lie in your mess
To know you ripped the heart
Of someone you loved out of their chest
Oh, no
And I guess that this is how it feels
When you got nothing left
To know you could have done something
But you gave up instead
Oh, no
Well it seems like now
I've got a lot to be okay with
We never got to say we made it
My favourite colour's gone and faded
Makes me wonder, did we waste it
But you don't owe me anything
Don't hear me out, I'll just sing
If you don't wanna know
I understand, but just know
No, that you don't owe me anything
Don't listen to me, the words just sting
If you want me to go
I understand, but just know
You don't owe me anything
Don't hear me out, I'll just sing
If you don't wanna know
I understand, but just know
That you don't owe me anything
Don't hear me out, I'll just sing
If you don't wanna know
I understand, but just know
No, that you don't owe me anything
Don't listen to me, the words just sting
If you want me to go
I understand, but just know
Hush, little baby, drink your spoiled milk
I'm crazy, need my prescription filled
Do you like my cookies? They're made just for you
A little bit of sugar, but lots of poison, too
I'm provoked into sick confrontations, brutal
Time after time, bed of nails, suffocation,
life's ending, slay in different designs
One mans misery is another mans mystery
Lonely girl you lost the only thing you loved
Nothing that you have is ever good enough
And I wont be the one to keep you safe
And I wont be the one who stays the same
You got a lot of nerve and
Looks like the tables turning
And now you're wishing me well like you miss me
You got a dirty tongue and
Looks like the damage done is forever
And it's a long time to miss me
Woah oh
And it's a long time to miss me
Woah oh
Lonely girl it looks like you are out of luck
Tell me how it feels to watch your friends give up
I was on your side
I stood by you
So go ahead and cry its just like you
You got a lot of nerve and
Looks like the tables turning
And now you're wishing me well like you miss me
You got a dirty tongue and
Looks like the damage done is forever
And it's a long time to miss me
Woah oh
And it's a long time to miss me
Woah oh
And I don't feel sorry for you
Sorry for you
Cos now the tables turning
And now the bridge is burning
It's coming crashing down
Crashing down
Over you [x4]
You got a lot of nerve and
Looks like the tables turning
And now you're wishing me well like you miss me
You got a dirty tongue and
Looks like the damage done is forever
And it's a long time to miss me
Woah oh
And it's a long time to miss me
Woah oh no
Hush, little baby, drink your spoiled milk
I'm crazy, need my prescription filled
Do you like my cookies? They're made just for you
A little bit of sugar, but lots of poison, too
All my useless advice
All my hanging around
All your cutting down to size
All my bringing you down All your stupid ideals
You've got your head in the clouds
You should see how it feels
With your feet on the ground
Looking inside of yourself
You might see someone you don't know, no
Maybe it's just what you need
Letting the river I know that's in you flow You can feel it, you can see it
You know the rush of thunder, yeah
You'll feel it, I see it in your eyes You're caught in the middle
Just like the way you've always been
Caught in the middle, helpless again
You and I have memories
Longer than the road that stretches out ahead
Two of us wearing raincoats
Standing solo
In the sun
You and me chasing paper
Getting nowhere
On our way back home
We're on our way home
We're on our way home
We're going home
I feel insane every single time
I'm asked to compromise
Cause I'm afraid and stuck in my ways
And that's the way it stays
So how long did I expect love to outweigh ignorance?
By that look on your face I may have forced the scale to tip
This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end
Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end
No safety or surprise, the end
I'll never look into your eyes...again
what have I done?
I wish I could run,
Away from this ship going under
Just trying to help
Hurt everyone else
Now I feel the weight of the world is on my shoulders
What can you do when your good isn’t good enough And all that you touch tumbles down?
Cause my best intentions
Keep making a mess of things,
I just wanna fix it somehow
But how many times will it take?
Oh, how many times will it take for me to get it right, to get it right?
Can I start again, with my faith shaken? Cause I can’t go back and undo this
I just have to stay and face my mistakes,
But if I get stronger and wiser, I’ll get through this
What can you do when your good isn’t good enough? And all that you touch tumbles down?
Cause my best intentions keep making a mess of things,
I just wanna fix it somehow
But how many times will it take?
Oh, how many times will it take for me to get it right?
So I throw up my fist, throw a punch in the air,
And accept the truth that sometimes life isn’t fair! Yeah, I’ll send out a wish, yeah, I’ll send up a prayer
And finally someone will see how much I care
What can you do when your good isn’t good enough? And all that you touch tumbles down?
Cause my best intentions keep making a mess of things,
I just wanna fix it somehow
But how many times will it take?
Oh, how many times will it take, to get it right?
To get it right

What good is this chanting?
I don't even know what I'm reading!
I don't even know what trick I ought to try
where are you?
Already dead, or bleeding?
One more disaster I can add to my
Generous supply?
No good deed goes unpunished
No act of charity goes unresented
No good deed goes unpunished
That's my new creed
My road of good intentions
Led where such roads always lead
No good deed
Goes unpunished!
One question haunts and hurts
Too much, too much to mention:
Was I really seeking good
Or just seeking attention?
Is that all good deeds are
When looked at with an ice-cold eye?
If that's all good deeds are
Maybe that's the reason why
No good deed goes unpunished
All helpful urges should be circumvented
No good deed goes unpunished
Sure, I meant well -
Well, look at what well-meant did:
All right, enough - so be it
I promise no good deed
Will I attempt to do again
Ever again
No good deed
Will I do again!
Hush, little baby, drink your spoiled milk
I'm crazy, need my prescription filled
Do you like my cookies? They're made just for you
A little bit of sugar, but lots of poison, too
