We all need a little self control
draw the line so I can fall below
sure you may like it, are we good to go?
a little bit of self control

I’m happy to be here, but what’s up with that smoke?
I stepped outta the fire, back into the flame,
of my own desire, so hard to make a change
you never understand until you played the game.
I stepped outta the fire, right back into the flame.

It feels like I’m hiding, so no one gets hurt
it’s exactly what I need, but it’s not what you deserver.

So happy to be here, all surrounded by smoke?
I stepped outta the fire, back into the flame,
of my own desire, so hard to make a change
you never understand until you played the game.
I stepped outta the fire, right back into the flame.

I stepped outta the fire, back into the flame,
of my own desire, probably never change
step outta the fire, I’m outta the fire.
you’d never understand, so hard to understand.
I’m outta the fire, stepped outta the fire…
back into the flame.

Nothing 

I was walking underwater, trying not to fall
I let the sea take on the sorrow and the moon tell me I still don’t belong.

sing through my words, I become nothing, but an echo in the dark before the light
on and on I become nothing, just a memory that’s with you for the night.

I’m just a shadow a dream on your wall
and when you wake up in the morning, everything about me is gone.
Sing through my words, I become nothing just an echo in the dark before the light
on and on I become nothing, but a memory only with you for the night.

Sing though my words, I become nothing just an echo in the dark before the light
on and on I become nothing but a memory only with you for the night.

You’re a presence in the room
my honey blonde addiction all in bloom
doesn’t matter who you are
you’re every bad idea I have inside.

I steal a glance you turn away
‘Cause you’re no ordinary girl, that I’m gonna play!

I need you more, than an alcoholic need a glass of red.
I need you more, with that cross around your neck.
You look sweet, but you ain’t innocent.

Paralyze me in my place
As I memorize the perfect of your face
I wanna be wherever you are
Can you hear me over the beating of my heart?

I need you more, than an addict needs another couple pills.
I need you more, with that cross around your neck. You look sweet, but you ain’t innocent

I need you more, than a gambler needs some hundred dollar bills.
I need you more, than an addict needs just one more pill.
I need you more… I need you more…
I need you more, you’re my glass of red…
you look sweet, but you ain’t innocent.

Unsaid 

Maybe you need me to be something you know I’m not
but you say you miss me and always it tears me apart
maybe, just the way that it feels
closer, and the moment reveals

I hold on cuz there’s something unsaid
lay down your armor, pick up the pieces
this is at an end. I hold on, cuz there’s something to do
restart the world and return from the pain that you’ve lived through
but don’t stop me from loving… you

baby, just the way that I am
lean on the memories, I’ve forgotten again.
baby, dark the words that I fear so true
so stay where you are, on the edge of the scar
where the black meets the blue.
(sorry folks, parks closed)

I hold on cuz there’s something unsaid
lay down your armor, pick up the pieces
this ends at an end. I hold on, there’s still something to do.
restart the world and return from the pain
all of the pieces have been thrown away
forget the past as it’s only a thing that we live through
but don’t stop me from loving… you
please don’t stop me from loving you

I hold on, I hold on, I hold on, cuz there’s something unsaid
(moose out front should have told you)

And I… wanna be like you
And I… do everything you do

Make up my mind for me
and show me the world hidden in your misery
and I know you so well
’cause I’m under your spell

You are everything I wanted
wanted me to be
And I… wanna be like you
And I… do everything you do

I wanted more
than I found in my
life is just a metaphor
and I’m blue as the sea
but that’s a simile

You are everything I wanted
wanted me to be
And I… wanna be like you
And I… wanna be like you
I’ll do anything you tell me to
and I… and I… and I… wanna be like you
I’ll do anything you tell me to
I… and I… and I… wanna be like you

Got some time with understanding
forgot that I had none
A little harsh and heavy handed
Bitterness to chase the passion
a lot to come undone
another heart to ease the panic

Hold onto me,
cause I’ll fall and you’ll bleed.

Listen in it’s mostly static
where harmony once was.
A little loss to leave you hanging
Echo through the world expanding
fading into none
It’s always darkest where were standing

Hold on to me (hold on to me)
I’ll slip, fall eventually
Hold on to me (hold on to me)
cause I’ll fall and you’ll bleed!

I don’t see the lightning anymore
never feel the rain
everything’s exactly as before
but nothing feels the same
so hold on to me!

Hold on to me (hold on to me)
cause I’ll slip, and fall eventually
Hold on to me (hold on to me)
cause I’ll fall and you’ll bleed!
Hold on to me (hold on to me)
cause I’ll slip, as far as I can see
Hold on to me (hold on to me)
cause I’ll fall and you’ll bleed!

Better Days 

All alone … letting go
Just waiting for the rain
Been betrayed… by my mistakes
There’s nothing left to show.
And I know there… There will always be
Always be better days
And I know that… Things could change
But they never change for me.

You’ve been away.. it’s hard to say
but it seems it’s been awhile.
Maybe I could ask you to stay…
but it’s never been my style.

And I know there… There will always be
Always be better days
And I know that… Things could change
But they never change for me.

Cause I don’t need your better days…
I don’t need your better days…
I don’t need your better days…

Pieces 

I know you tried to be it all
Eyes I never get to see any more
So innocent and insecure
Like you never really knew, you never even knew

The devastation silently
tears away the layers of my heart.
Quietly, so violently…
Everything we love just falls apart
And I’m left with only pieces

I couldn’t stand to watch you fall
Into emptiness you thought so beautiful
Now everything has nothing more
And there’s nothing left to do,
Nothing I can do.

The devastation silently
tears away the layers of my heart.
Quietly, so violently…
Everything we love just falls apart
And I’m left with only pieces

The devastation silently
tears away the layers of my heart.
Quietly, so violently…
Everything we love just falls apart
And I’m left in all these pieces

Impossible 

Innocence can never stay…
Learn to live before it fades…
You can take your turn, and I could walk away…
It’s not impossible…

Innocence can never stay…
Learn to love before it fades…
You can take your turn, and I could walk away…
It’s not impossible…
It’s not impossible… oh…..
It’s not impossible… oh….
It’s not impossible.

Fight the Urge 

You’re not the only one who thought of letting go
And fought the urge to fall, further down below
Cause we are stronger now, then oh so long ago
We have no fear

Battles have been fought, forgotten over time
You have waged your wars and I have started mine
After everything, everyone is fine
I will be here…

Do you believe in something,
as beautiful as beautiful as this?
Do you believe in something,
as beautiful as beautiful as this?

I will watch for you, behind me as I go
Fight for everything, ’cause fighting’s all I know
They will push away the shadows as I grow
from over here.

Do you believe in something,
as beautiful as beautiful as this?
Do you believe in something,
as beautiful as beautiful as this?

Fight the urge to push it all away
Fight the urge to push it all away.
Fight the urge… Fight the urge.

Nothing Left to Leave 

I can be the hero, everyone expects me to be
or I can play the zero now. After all, it’s comfortable to be in a crowd.
Nothing in the moment, tell me how you need me to feel.
I’m ready to surrender, now. After all the time is gone, can’t feel the ground.

Push me away, when I’m here I can see, worry in your eyes.
Save the past for me. When the world closes in, tell me it’s all alright.

Falling down… falling, falling down
Falling down… falling, falling, falling, falling, I’m falling down.

Push me away, when I’m here I can see, worry in your eyes.
Save the past for me. When the world closes in, tell me it’s all alright.
You can never leave, cause there’s nothing left in me, there’s nothing left to leave.
There’s nothing left to leave…

Sink to the Bottom
– Fountains of Wayne – 

I wanna sink to the bottom with you
sink to the bottom with you
the ocean is big and blue
I just wanna sink to the bottom with you
sink to the bottom with you
sink to the bottom with you
the ocean is big and blue
I just wanna sink to the bottom with you

cars on the highway, planes in the air
everyone else is going somewhere
well I’m going nowhere, getting there soon
I might as well go, under with you

I wanna sink to the bottom with you
sink to the bottom with you
the ocean is big and blue
I just wanna sink to the bottom with you

sink to the bottom with you
sink to the bottom with you
the ocean is big and blue
I just wanna sink to the bottom with you

Well I just wanna
Sink to the bottom with you
well I just wanna
sink to the bottom with you
well I just wanna
the ocean is big and blue
well I just wanna
sink to the bottom with you

Strong Enough

It’s all for nothing now
It’s evaporated, lost somewhere somehow
I’m in love with falling down…
Ahhh….
You gotta fight the feeling,
That you’re not enough,
you’re not enough.
You gotta fight the feeling,
because this life is rough,
and you are strong enough.

Feel invisible to you,
Surrounded by these walls,
that you can walk right through,
Ahhh….

You gotta fight the feeling,
That you’re not enough,
you’re not enough.
You gotta fight the feeling,
because this life is rough,
and you are strong enough.

I regret that anything
so bright can be so far away.
I pretend to close my eyes.
Nothing can pull me away,
The fear is there to motivate.
Over time you’ll realize.

You gotta fight the feeling,
That you’re not enough,
you’re not enough.
You gotta fight the feeling,
because this life is rough,
and you are strong enough.

You gotta fight the feeling,
That you’re not enough,
you’re not enough.
You gotta fight the feeling,
because this life is rough,
and you are strong enough.
