Hello

The Day Begins
02:16
|
|||
The day begins like any other
Your alarm goes off
You make another reason
Just to stay indoors
Another dream you don't remember
And you don't know why
You'd rather be there
Then go and fake a smile
I know you're gonna be
Like the stars up on your wall
Yeah, you're gonna be
The day begins like any other
But behind your door
Is a world that's waiting for you now
So go
I know it's kind of strange
But I know you'll be okay
The sun is calling you
He's looking down on you
So go
Go and take the day
Be it on your own
Don't let em break you down
Don't let em wash you away
I know you're gonna be
Like the stars up on your wall
Yeah, you're gonna be
The day begins like any other
But behind your door
Is a world that's waiting for you now
Nothing's gonna be the same there
Without you

Stay The Night
03:34
|

Walked into a bar on a Saturday night
Just to find you in an altered mind
Talking how were gonna take this world by storm
But my mind was in a different place
You could see the break up on my face
You said "No, leave your problems at the door"
She said just come and stay the night
Oh you know it'll be alright
And give me just one more reason
I don't need this
I don't want to be alone tonight
If that's alright
I don't believe that we would
Fall in love
But I might
So we made our way into the streets
We were stumbling and mumbling
And causing a scene
You said "I think it's time to take this home"
Oh it's funny when those lights turn red
Cause the city never seemed so dead
But those eyes assured it was alive
She said just come and stay the night
Oh you know it'll be alright
And give me just one more reason
I don't need this
I don't want to be alone tonight
If that's alright
I don't believe that we would
Fall in love
But I might
Give me just one more reason
I don't need this
I don't want to be alone tonight
If that's alright
I don't believe that we would
Fall in love
Fall in love
Fall in love
In this bed I feel like I belong
Something tells me that I've
Fallen in love
|

So I left
Slammed the door
Threw out everything
That we were fighting for
Took a chance at love
But found myself
Just falling out of lust
Why'd you go
Why'd you leave me here
Sitting on my own
Where did I go wrong
I don't know why
I was bound to go
And saddle you
With the pain
It's not easy
To arrange my words
Cause the message
Stays the same
You could've told me
Like a coward
I knew you'd run away
Leave me on the floor
Now you've fallen to your knees
And you're begging me
Please just stay the night
I don't want you to go
I don't need you anymore
No no
What a love that we had
Oh it had to go bad
So the story goes
It's a shame
That I fell
Should've known that
Only lies came from that mouth
When I told you
That I loved you
Guess I should've had my doubts
It's so hard
To say I love you
When my mind
Can't say the same
It says time to move on
We used to be something
But now i'm not sure what
I can't ignore the fact
I hate what we've become
Maybe we can work this out
And then we'd just move on
I wish we could were too far gone
Now I've fallen to your knees
And i'm begging you
Please just stay the night
I don't want you to go
I don't need you anymore
What a love that we had
Oh it had it so bad
So the story goes
Now you've fallen to your knees
And i'm begging you
Please just stay the night
I don't want you to go
I don't need you anymore
No no
What a love that we had
Oh it had it so bad
What a love that we had
And that's the way the story goes

Addicted
03:33
|
|||
I woke up this morning
Just to meet you out my door
Oh god it feels like forever
Since I said I didn't need you anymore
I can't seem to go an hour
Without wanting to be with you
Oh I look past the negatives
That hide inside of you
But when I called it quits
You stuck around with all my friends
Despite me
I can't believe you're killing me
And I keep coming back for more
I can't believe you're killing me
And I keep coming back for more
I'm addicted to your...
I woke up this morning
Just to meet you out my door
Guess I've fallen off the wagon
Guess I need you even more
Than you'll know
But that feeling in my chest
Will only bring me pain, I know
I keep trying to run away
But again and again I stay
But that taste upon my lips
The scars on my fingertips
You left me
I can't believe you're killing me
And I keep coming back for more
I can't believe you're killing me
And I keep coming back for more
I'm addicted to your...
When i'm sad or when i'm lonely
When i'm mad or out of control now
(I just wanna see you)
When I've fallen to my knees
And pray to a god I don't believe in
(I just wanna see you)
I can't believe you're killing me
And I keep coming back for more
I can't believe you're killing me
And I keep coming back for more
I'm addicted to your...

The Party
04:10
|

She's at the party
She runs into past loves
That ran away
Fell apart or they got lost
It won't affect her
Distract of upset her
She's found someone else
He's in the back
With tonight's first encounter
Guess keeping track
Of her age didn't matter
But in the act
Came a cry of "How could you!"
The girl he told he loved
He told her he loved her
He didn't mean a word he said
No no
But what does this mean to her
She told him she loved him
It didn't mean a thing oh
They never got a chance to say goodnight
For tonight, tonight, tonight
She died so much inside
So nobody leaves this place
She's in the bathroom
With eyes on reflections
She's keeping count
On her lines and complexion
The only way
She can deal with rejection
Is to put that stuff
Up her nose
He's at the door
With a false explanation
He's throwing words
Like "A big complication"
It goes from bad
To a worse situation
She pulled out a gun
He told her he loved her
He didn't mean a word he said
No no
But what does this mean to her
She told him she loved him
It didn't mean a thing oh
They never got a chance to say goodnight
For tonight, tonight, tonight
She died so much inside
So nobody leaves this place alive
The party is happening
Can you hear em falling down stairs
Luckily, she don't even wanna go home
No, no
The party is happening
Can you hear em yelling no please
Suddenly, everybody wants to go home
No, not tonight
Well in a flash
It was all done and over
Guess all the lives
That she took must have drove her
To the point of a coward
She knows that there's only one way out
On that cold November night
A broken heart set its sights
A dirty powder sparked the light
A tragedy accrued
They never got a chance to say goodnight
For tonight, tonight, tonight
She died so much inside
So nobody leaves this place
Nobody leaves this place
Nobody leaves this place alive

The Show
03:27
|
|||
Hit the lights, draw the curtains
Are you ready for the show
Don't speak a word
Save that for later
All are welcome to the show
Tonight's the night it's going down
So bring your friends and join the crowd
Get hypnotized by the lights and sounds
There's something for all to see
On the stage you won't believe
The greatest acts that you've never seen
But behind the scenes it's so obscene
It's business as usual
A circus act of hoops and rings
Where players play and singers sing
Distracts you from the many things
Oh
Meet the man behind it all
He stinks of drink but he never falls
He holds his date like a crutch for aid
Though she's far below the consenting age
That's the last thing on his mind
Come one, come all, gather round
Look at the faces in the crowd
Look at all those hands
That won't take no for an answer
Hear the bands, dance along
If you know the words sing along
But let their melodies just take you away
Take it away
So clap your hands, sing along
Have a drink cause it won't take long
Go put this up your nose, no questions
Questions are cause for concern
You can trust everybody here
Look at me I know everybody here
That's right, go have a drink from his magic cup
It'll be the best night you'll never remember
(That's right folks
For the price of admission
We can make all of your nightmares
Come true
Due to budget cuts
We'll be having to pay the band
In the opportunity to play tonight
But they're fine with it I bet)
Mama, how could they do this to me
I don't remember a thing
Or what they did to me
How the fuck could this happen
How could they not see
Why was nobody out there
Looking for me
All they did was turn a blind eye
Blaming me when I ask why
Mama, I want to go home
Mama, I should've never
Went to the show

Way Out
04:00
|
|||
I'm not the man I used to be
It's so hard to fake a smile
When every pair of eyes I meet
Ask to come and stay a while
These walls are closing in on me
In this room I feel confined
I feel like I can never leave
This room or state of mind
I need a way out
Be it a ticket or a rope
I'll leave you a note saying
I left or had to go
Oh I left or had to go
I need a way out of here
I never get to see the sunrise
Cause i'm about to fall asleep
And every time I see my eyes
In a mirror they're sad like me
Every little pill I take
It does nothing for the pain
Cause maybe i'm in too deep
Maybe I've lost my mind
I need a way out
Be it a ticket or a rope
I'll leave you a note saying
I left or had to go
Oh I left or had to go
I need a way out of here
There's so much going on inside my head
Oh can you hear the voices making me wish I was...
Oh no, I won't say a thing
(Oh no, tie the rope)
I need a way out
Be it a ticket or a rope
I'll leave you a note saying
I left or had to go
Oh I left or had to go

The Funeral
05:03
|
|||
First I wanna say i'm sorry
For anything
I said to bring you down
I know it's far too late now
But I need to make amends
For all the things I could've said
Oh it only feels like yesterday
When the phone rang to say
They took you away
But now
You're sitting in the big blue sky
Watching the days go by
As you're living out a better life
And I
I never got to say goodbye
But the memory will never die
Cause i'm never letting go
Cause i'm never letting go
All you wanted to do
Was talk to me
But I guess I let excuses
Get the best of me
If I could go back
I hope you know that I would
I'd give anything to see you
One last time before you leave us here
One day I hope I'll see you again
And I hope that you'll remember me
Cause now
You're sitting in the big blue sky
Watching the days go by
As you're living out a better life
And I
I never got to say goodbye
But the memory will never die
Cause i'm never letting go
No i'm never letting go
At last I wanna say i'm sorry
And I love you
And i'll miss you so
Cause now
You're sitting in the big blue sky
Watching the days go by
And you're living out a better life
And I
I never got to say goodbye
But the memory will never die
No i'm never letting go

Encore
05:17
|
|||
Go to sleep and drift away
Golden slumbers await
So go shut your eyes
And let go of the night
Cause tomorrow
Comes quicker than you think
Take a bow, dim the lights
Now it's time to go home
I see the crowd walk away
I don't want you to go
Can I play you one more
Just to leave on an encore
A reason to stay
I don't want to be alone
Anymore
So tell me what it's like
When the lights go down
Oh tell me what it's like
When nobody's around
And you find you're all alone
Can you hear me
Calling out for more
Can you hear me
Oh I might not make it
On through the night
I might just close my eyes
And drift away from everyone
I used to love
I'm just a sideshow, a loser
A reason to go
A wannabe with a dream
I got nothing to show
The pen that bleeds
Is to me just some words on a page
With a meaning that means
I don't know anymore
Oh no
Can you hear me calling
Can you hear me
Can you hear me calling
Can you hear me
