Who Deserves This (The Sharpest Edge)
Shut your mouth
If I have to say this again I’m gonna plant my fist in the wall
Your backwards ways of dealing with things have pushed me onto the sharpest edge
And I can’t wait to see you again
You gave me more than I needed
And I can’t wait to see you again
You push me over the deep end again
Two blades to this one
Two extremes and I’m the only one
Who would take this
The only one who deserves this
Just come clean,
If I have to tell you again I’m going to plant your face on the ground
Does it seem all that hard to say? Can't you change?
I’m getting tired of hearing myself
And I can’t wait to see you again
You gave me more than I needed
And I can’t wait to see you again
You push me over the deep end again
Two blades to this one
Two extremes and I’m the only one
Who would take this
The only one who deserves this
Sing It All (Aloud to Me)
You said to me
Our lives are chained
To the front porch in the sun
Falls down and now there is rain
You lied to me
A stabbing pain
Twisting harder in my back
Or in the front it’s all the same
A cut that goes deep down there’s light you see
More excuses more complaints on top of me
Can there be a time for calm and comforting?
Instead we have a load of bull and posturing
Aloud to me
Sing it all
Alone you see
Is all we are
But hope it brings
Dark to light
Hopeless it seems
Wrong it beats out right
Allowed to be
Just the same
Interchangeable
But now you can’t complain
A line we know that is more than just cliché
An acid test for how much is left to pay
Beauty is as beautiful as one sees
The eye, it beholds, what’s it telling me
Aloud to me
Sing it all
Alone you see
Is all we are
But hope it brings
The dark to light
Hopeless it seems
Wrong it beats out right
Wrong it beats out right
Hopeless it seems
But why? Cause I've always been so good to you babe
Right to my eye - you lie
And I just can't respect your games
Do you think I'm blind?
Realize this shit it goes both ways
Cause you got what gets me going
But you gonna get me going
So baby show me something
Aloud to me
Sing it all
Alone you see
Is all we are
But hope it brings
The dark to light
Hopeless it seems
Wrong it beats out right
Wrong it beats out right
Good Night (Love, Myself)
When you wake up in the morning and you don't like what you see
Take a look into the mirror what it's like to be me
If you want to end it all, think about what you would miss
Before you go to sleep at night I love myself, I wish
When you've got no shows to play, there's no reason to rehearse
Can you tie me up in tape? I think I'm getting worse
Can I get my life to rhyme?
Or is it time to say good night I'm sure you'll love me after this
When you wake up in the morning and you don't like what you see
Take a look into the mirror what it's like to be me
If you want to end it all, and you want to kill yourself
Before you go to sleep at night make sure you write "Love, myself"
When you've lost all chance of hope and there's nothing you've got left
Can you fake another show with those who know you best?
Are you going home tonight or are you sleeping in the dirt?
What can I risk to lose? I love myself it hurts
When you wake up in the morning and you don't like what you see
Take a look into the mirror what it's like to be me
If you want to end it all, and you want to kill yourself
Before you go to sleep at night make sure you write "Love, myself"
Never There (Restless)
Tired eyes stare in the dark, tracing forms unseen
I’m not waking or in slumber but somewhere in between
You say I’m never there for you but I’m not there for me
My mind is spinning so quickly I can’t fall asleep
I’m restless
Why can’t I be still just this once?
I’m wasted
I can’t control my impulses
A million pieces scattered before me
I can’t pick them up myself
The pills - they don’t work anymore
Just like everything else
I’m restless
Why can’t I be still just this once?
I’m wasted
I can’t control my impulses
I can do anything but I won’t see it through
The more I separate myself the less I see of you
It’s too bad that I can’t stay since I don’t have to go
I can’t explain the reason because I don’t really know
I’m restless
Why can’t I be still just this once?
I’m wasted
I can’t control my impulses
The Longest Drive
A year is ending the countdown is on
A new dawn, a new day
Counting the minutes until you're gone
And I've got nothing to say
Happy for you but sad for me
Is it really selfish to be?
Such freedom yet so bored
So much time for so much more
Unsure what I want to do
Cause nothing feels the same without you
I can tell you anything
How I feel, what I think but now I'm not allowed
Pressure's building, feeling guilty
All cause of you
Gotta be strong when I feel weak
Gotta be there but I can't even speak
Such freedom yet so bored
So much time for so much more
Unsure what I want to do
Cause nothing feels the same without you
Side by side, alone
Future unknown
I've got such freedom still I'm so bored
So much time for so much more
This is not how I want to be
Cause without you I don't know how to be me
Such freedom yet so bored
So much time for so much more
Unsure what I want to do
Cause nothing feels the same without you
A year is over a new day begun
So much freedom
So much to say about all that's come
But you're gone
You're gone
Stand Up (Whatever It Takes)
Lights, camera, action on humanity
A falling bee hive called society
And we’re busy looking for the next story
Bite down hard and don’t let go
We’re here for the ride so enjoy the show
We’re ringmasters in this little game we play
Of killing all the kings and nobody’s there to save the day
Stripping off their crowns, just so I move up
Take two, spotlight on your latest prey
Take three lives by the end of day
Can’t worry bout whoever you do on the way
A little trip can twist into a major fall
Tastes best when you find them in the raw
They feed off of it like rats of Hamelin
Ready to concede their ability to question
Breaking them all down, so I can stand up
Everyone go to the table saw
And everyone cuts off their right arm
Everyone is tryin’ to see
Where the blood is coming from
Nothing to stand on, now I can’t stand up.
Look at all the frowns, now I can give up.
Disconnection (Cybernoia)
You don’t have permission to think as though you're free
There is nothing flawed in this, with time you'll come to see
I know it won’t hurt a bit and you mean all the best
You’ll have to stop this reasoning or end up like the rest
Now you’re in this Hell
Trapped without a voice
Surrender to their will
Compliance not a choice
What is this inside?
They're watching every move
You could run and hide
But they’ll only find you
I tried to warn you off but you wouldn’t heed my calls
They see everything you are reaching through these walls
Rules exist for your protection you ungrateful open mind
No one fights the system when they're locked up for the rest of time
Now we’re in this Hell
Trapped without a voice
Surrender to their will
Compliance not a choice
What is this inside?
They're watching every move
You could run and hide
But they’ll only find you
Now that we accept
Versions of the truth
It's time to disappear
And never hear from you
