8 Hours Later...

The Awkward Silence

Others

Open up my mind try to see what's inside 
open up my eyes so I can see my life 
dissect my thoughts until everything is gone 
analyze my head find out where I'm coming from

Thinking about it time and time all over again
with no reason to wait to fall down once again
I never want to lose track of my place
I'll wait over here and fill the empty space

Listen to my words that you might not have heard
find the hidden meanings behind things that occur
hear the trailing voices let go of my mind
put my head away for another time

BACK TO TOP

Drying Tears

Soon I'll grow up as time comes with age
you've got to believe me I'll never ever change
So wait up for me at the end of the road
Trust in me to show you where to go

Clean up the floor
Wipe off my tears
You said it was okay to show all my fears
put on my shoes
cut all my hair
open the door to the world out there

As I wander around in the grass
I can't remember just what happened last
I hear your voice clearer than before
It says whatever I do now I can't do it anymore

BACK TO TOP

Forgotten

What did I ever do wrong?
What did I forget to say to your face?
I know that I'm the only one
that has been forgotten by you

What do you want me to do?
How can I make it all up to you?
I know it's not you
It's all me

Lately I've been kind of lost
I won't give it up at any cost
but there's still a pain inside of me
that's just the strain of being lonely

BACK TO TOP

Every Night

Every night I walk to your house
And hope that you'll open up the door
Every night I wish I could be
In there with you, not out here with me

Why can't you see
I was put on this earth just for you
I know that it's wrong
but I live my life for you

BACK TO TOP

How Was Your Day?

I don't wanna get out of bed today
there is no reason, I have nothing to say
I don't wanna go to work today
the way I feel, just makes me want to stay

No one understands me there
I don't really give a care
I'll be better off
If I stay home

I put on a brand new suit today
then I went outside to go walk in the rain
I watched my life fall apart today
I just wonder, how was your day?

BACK TO TOP

GA

Now it's over and I know I've told you
that I'm going to turn out fine
Do you ever wonder where you're going
under what circumstances you can learn to live

Sometimes you have to ask yourself the questions you don't want to know
Sometimes you have to learn to live your life alone

Once I was searching through my life for the perfect girl 
I never knew she was right there in front of me
And I told myself to wait for the right time
too late for the right time now

If I look in the obvious I'll know
The answers to my questions on my own

BACK TO TOP

More Than Your Words

I don't know how you do it
How do you keep a smile
through all the hard times you've faced
How do you keep away from those
alternate ways to deal with your problems
through all this turmoil

Now I know that there is
evil inside of everyone
just try not to take everything
to your heart

Freaked out at 7 last Friday night
Ran out after another fight
they don't know how to keep me safe
Went home and saw that I was alone
Poured out the pain in my heart I've known
Realized I'm all alone

How can you keep that smile on your face
after all this, and no blue sky up ahead
But life is worth, More than your words
more than your words, yeah
Life is worth more than your words

BACK TO TOP

Nothing Special

I can't find a reason to justify my actions
but I don't regret a thing
I can't stand here and tell you that I'm right
but I know I can't be wrong

Whatever I do
The seasons will still change
I'll never dwell on an old mistake
because I can't fix it now

I may not be a model citizen
I'm not your ideal guy
I'm not anything special I'm just average
So don't expect anything more

BACK TO TOP

Playing Games

Just one time I want to walk away ok
from a fight with you
Just one time I want to be the one who wins
this game you call love

Well I don't want to play this game anymore
Call me a sore loser, call me what you want

Now I'm just stuck here in my home 
on my own, all alone waiting for your call
I'll take a nap or two, or just wait here to die
this is how I'm going to live my life

BACK TO TOP

The Other Way

If you knew anything about me
you'd know the ego-bus left without me
If you knew anything about me you'd know 
that I don't know how to show my emotions clearly

When you say goodbye 
my world comes crashing down
Asphyxiation is not that bad 
when you consider everything from the other way around

A hundred million voices, A hundred million ways
A hundred million thoughts running through my brain
And I know I'll realize it's time to leave
but the doors are locked victims have been seized

BACK TO TOP

Don't Open Your Eyes (The 30-sec. song)

Don't open your eyes
You'll see every aspect of your life
burning and crashing down around you

Don't open your eyes
you'll know that everything you wanted
and everything you ever needed is gone
Don't open your eyes

BACK TO TOP

So Much

yeah I know I should try this time, and yeah, I will
because there's a motivation that comes alive
when you begin to end the root of frustration
and I've tried so hard for that

so much for comprehending life and order
so much for reaching a true understanding
so much for everything I ever wanted
so much for that

I should pick up the pieces that don't fit right
because I won't let my shattered heart
keep me down from starting over
over, over and again

BACK TO TOP

Breaking Down

out of everything of ever done wrong or done right
there is only one yeah only one i'd ever try to change
because when i look in the mirror i cant bear to stare into my own eyes
but i never thought it would happen to me, yeah i never thought it would happen to me
and now I'm breaking down

but now its too late, i made a mistake
and words cant fix anything, they cant fix anything at all
because when i look in the mirror i cant bear to stare into my own eyes
but i never thought it would happen to me, yeah i never thought it would happen to me
and now I'm breaking down

i deserve every bit of pain i get
because i've caused much more than this
but i guess im just a cause for conflict 
and i'm breaking down

BACK TO TOP

Out Of My Reach

I've wasted all my chances
Now nothing's left for me to do
I want you to know that I
would do anything for you

Now I can see
You've gone away from me
And you'll stay
Out of my reach

Depression, I learned my lesson
Learned the hard way, why always that way?
Once I find how to win over your heart
I'll be okay

I can't live, without you, to hold on to....
