Why Do you Care
And though I died before,
but I won't die any more to comfort you
and distort the view.
Are you afraid to cry?
Are you afraid to die for beliefs set in stone
and those thoughts that you can't condone?
Why do you care that I've been drowning?
Why do you care when everything I built goes tumbling down?
Why do you care that I've been bleeding, conceding, for being?
But in the end
Why do you care?
I cut my wrists for you
my pride left far and few
I gather all these lies
The how's, the what's and why's.
I feel it sinking in
It's time for sink or swim.
You hold on tight with all your might.
Why do you care that I've been drowning?
Why do you care when everything I built goes tumbling down?
Why do you care that I've been bleeding, conceding, for being?
But in the end
Why do you care?
It's all the same
I see no change
Well let me go
Well let me know.
I cry in vain
to drown the pain
I close my eyes
and I feel myself die.
Why do you care that I've been drowning?
Why do you care when everything I built goes tumbling down?
Why do you care that I've been bleeding, conceding, for being?
But in the end...why do you, why do you care?
Why do you care that I've been drowning
But in the end . . . . . why do you care?
Close Your Eyes
Bearing your thoughts, bearing my soul, I play the fool
Too afraid to take this all and face the ridicule
Try as you might, you can't fool me
The pain you hide seems so close to me.
And it's okay to close your eyes to see
and make believe you're happy for the world to see
I know you think there's nothing left to do,
but I'll come down to you,
and I'll come down to you.
Bury your face inside your hands, deny the tear
And try not to contemplate these innate fears
I just can't seem to do what's needed
and leave you lost and mistreated
And it's okay to close your eyes to see
and make believe you're happy for the world to see
I know you think there's nothing left to do,
but I'll come down to you,
and I'll come down to you.
I see the blame you feel
I know it seems so real
There's nothing left to do,
so I'll come down to you, down to you
And it's okay to close your eyes to see
To make believe you're happy for the world to see, yeah
I know you think there's nothing left to do,
but I'll come down to you, down to you
But I'll come down to you, down to you
Empty Again
The world falls down around me
Tales of faith and spirituality
My hands are worn from holding on
My eyes are numb from being gone
And now I know I swore I'd never let this bring me down.
I'm empty again
I lost control of my only friend
I live in colors of black and blue
And I live with this burden without you
Without you
I'm chained to the wall in pain
I've never been the one to die in vain.
My heart's on the line,
no conception of time
Reach out, close my eyes, and let this pass away.
I'm empty again
I've lost control of my only friend
I live in colors of black and blue
and I live with this burden, without you.
I'm empty again
I lost control of my only friend
I live in colors of black and blue
and I live with this burden
Matter of Time
Forseen changing
Played along
Lived a life by right and wrong.
You've always been the one to say
that we would never even see this day.
We'll fight for what we believe
and we'll strive to live and achieve
and to be everything in mind
it's only a matter of time.
It's been a while
we're still here.
How quickly we rose
to claim this fear.
We're standing tall and we're standing strong
In the light, right where we belong.
We'll fight for what we believe
and we'll strive to live and achieve
and to be everything in mind
it's only a matter of time.
We'll fight for what we believe
and we'll strive to live and achieve
and to be everything in mind
it's only a matter of time.
It's only a matter of time.
Me
My days are slowly counting down till I can breathe no more.
These shallow reservations leave my soul so sore.
Hold on and see the way, the way that I fall.
I part my stairway to hell
This lie seems so old.
Crawl through the doorway to my life and take a look around
Feel it holding all my pain and strife as you beat me to the ground
My days are stranded inside me, and I can't break free
I guess it's all in a day's lie for what's left of me.
Too many times I've fallen, too many times I've cried
Left all my thoughts to wander, left all my peace to die
My heart's a million pieces, all spread upon the ground
My eyes saw an empty painting
Quiet, there's no sound
Crawl through the doorway to my life and take a look around
Feel it holding all my pain and strife as you beat me to the ground
My days are stranded inside me, and I can't break free
I guess it's all in a day's lie for what's left of me.
I've got no destination
I'm sick of alienation
Please God, no defamation
Crawl through the doorway to my life and take a look around
Feel it holding all my pain and strife as you beat me to the ground
My days are stranded inside me, and I can't break free
I guess it's all in a day's lie for what's left of me.
For what's left of me.
Change
Help me find myself, 'cause I'm losing my mind
No sense of reason, no recollection of time
I reach for a purpose, and I'm met with no way
To find what possesses the things I can't say to you.
Try again, don't falter now
My eyes start to change
And it all stays the same
Let it go again, please say you will
Let it go again, swallow the pill
Let it go again, I've tried to live on
But in the end, it's all a trend, and life goes on.
I keep pressing on, looking for the light
You can't look me in the eye even though you're right
A taint of injustice everywhere I go
Not for what I am, but for what you don't even know.
Try again, don't falter now
My eyes start to change
And it all stays the same
Let it go again, please say you will
Let it go again, swallow the pill
Let it go again, I've tried to live on
But in the end, it's all a trend, and life goes on.
Let it go again, please say you will
Let it go again, swallow the pill
Let it go again, I've tried to live on
But in the end, it's all a trend, and life goes on.
No Free Advice
Always saying I ain't good enough
Never knowing why my life's so rough
Always concerned with superficial ways
I'm here to tell you that these are the end of days
Rain keeps coming down as it shadows out the sun
It's coming closer now, you're anything but done, yeah.
I'm so sick of being misused, unused, reused
Can't take no more being misled, unfed, abused
Don't tell me what you feel
Misinterpret my will
Can't handle the falling of the rain.
It keeps coming fast and strong
No remorse shown for what's right or wrong
Make no statement to decree
Because it, it knows that, that you're never free
Rain keeps coming down as it shadows out the sun
It's coming closer now, you're anything but done, yeah.
I'm so sick of being misused, unused, reused
Can't take no more being misled, unfed, abused
Don't tell me what you feel
Misinterpret my will
Can't handle the falling of the rain.
I'm so sick of being misused, unused, reused
Can't take no more being misled, unfed, abused
Don't tell me what you feel
Misinterpret my will
Can't handle the falling of the rain.
No Place To Go
Too many thoughts consume the things I say and do
Too many times have changed
When all you've known is left to die amidst the sun
Your life's been rearranged.
That's when you say under your breath all those things best left unsaid
and your morals start to fade.
You run on empty through the fold, shedding your beliefs
You're living this charade.
(chorus) You lie inside your head, pondering what life holds for you
You hold your soul up to the light as the sun changes you
Too many times left standing against what faith can do
This time I think I know
You stand here forever, with no place to go.
You say that life's been nothing but a state of mind
and nothing but a point in time
You're left to watch us all surround you
Live life while you're confined.
Jealousy and envy crawl beneath your skin
and your heart begins to die
You're beaten, swollen, aching
An eye for an eye, yeah.
(chorus) (chorus) You stand here forever.
Somber
Inside I'm empty and outside I'm numb,
and I keep on waiting for the pain to succumb.
Inside I'm lonely, outside I'm alone
as the world falls apart in the end.
It fucks my body and thoughts cloud my mind.
Can't shake these cobwebs that I find, yeah.
The darkness flutters around my head.
Sometimes, I wonder if I'm dead.
I'm breaking down as you're breaking out.
Can't seem to conquer what life's all about.
In the end I'll fall right before your eyes,
your cries, your lies, I die somber.
I hope you're happy with what you've done.
You've burned all bridges, how's the power of one?
I hear your heartbeat as you walk on by.
I see inside you on this final goodbye.
It fucks my body and thoughts cloud my mind.
Can't shake these cobwebs that I find, yeah.
The darkness flutters around my head.
Sometimes, I wonder if I'm dead.
I'm breaking down as you're breaking out.
Can't seem to conquer what life's all about.
In the end I'll fall right before your eyes,
your cries, your lies, I die somber.
Seems life has changed
Time to do without
I'm gonna check myself before
I check out, yeah.
I'm breaking down as you're breaking out.
Can't seem to conquer what life's all about.
In the end I'll fall right before your eyes,
your cries, your lies, I die somber.
I'm breaking down as you're breaking out.
Can't seem to conquer what life's all about.
In the end I'll fall right before your eyes,
your cries, your lies, I die somber.
Somber, yeah.
Peace of Mind
With life on hold
Say goodbye to old habits of circumstance
The way you know me
Seems to show me why I'm glad that we took this chance
I've fallen short of grace
Each time I see your face you make me feel so free
But I can't comprise
And I won't compromise all you've done for me
I know it seems like a dream
Please, God, don't take this away from me
The way you love me all the same
I'm amazed at who you are
This moment in my life
It's like I've never loved before
The way you show me with a kiss
How much you care
You are love
You are life
You are peace of mind
The way you love me all the same
I'm amazed at who you are
This moment in my life
It's like I've never loved before
The way you show me with a kiss
How much you care
You are love
You are life
You are love
You are life
You are love
You are life
To me you're peace of mind
