Forever
she walked into the room
dressed to kill...lookin fine
she would never believe you
when you told her she was beautiful
guys and gals all turn to look
as she passes by their tables
chorus:
she always told you she would love you forever
guess forever's shorter than you thought
end chorus
she hits the dance floor
all the guys want a chance
to be the one to take her home
chorus
no, you won't ever get a chance
to have her in your arms again
so you walk out the door
and on with your life
chorus
she's hit on by all the guys
yet she goes home by herself
to cry, and think of you
chorus
The Truth
I keep wondering
what it would be like
to kiss your lips
to take your hand in mine
I feel our bodies entwined
and know it cannot be
so I look away
pretend that nothing's wrong
but we both know the truth
I wonder how you'd look
as the sun would dance upon your body
would you look me in the eye and say
those three words I long to hear?
so you just look away(from me)
pretending nothing's wrong(in my head)
but we both know the truth
the way you look into my eyes
fills me with false hope
that one day we'll break free
of the ties that bind
I know the truth
the other has your heart
so I look away
pretend that nothing's wrong
but we both know the truth
Delta
Why is it nothing ever works?
at least not for me
should I just let it all go?
and be someone else
chorus
in my head
thoughts spinning 'round
lost in a torrent or stream
all ending up
in a pile on the delta
of my mind
end chorus
should I just take it all for granted?
as everyone else has done
why are we all here?
on a plane to no where
chorus
believe me when I say
that all this is a bunch of crap
and you should let me be alone
to be the teller of a story
that no one listens to
chorus
Frustration
He woke up this mornin'
feeling the pain & loss of love
that same feeling you have
when your whole world falls apart
chorus
she doesn't even see him
as he stands before her eyes
all he wants is to touch her
yet she pretends not to feel
end chorus
he knows it gets inside her
the way it does to him
he just doesn't understand
why she can't love him
chorus
he has done all he can do
he leaves it all up in the air
he waits for her to see him
and open up her heart
here he stands as long as he has strength
musical bridge
maybe someday she'll understand his pain
chorus x2
Never Get It Right
Here we go again
seems like this always happens
why can't I just do this right?
I look her in the eye
I tell here how I feel
NO WAIT!!
that was just a dream
I look her in the eye
I start freakin out
and look away
as quick as I can
that's always how it happens
I'll never get it right
if only she could read my mind
Standing My Ground
Everything goes wrong at once
isn't that the way it always works?
too many things invade my head
questions I can't answer
problems I can't solve
do they ever go away?
voices in my head tell me
tell me to lose control
but that would be the easy way out
if I stand sturdy
and work it out in my head
will I not complete the circle?
will I not make it seem all right?
someday everything will come out right
it's just a matter of standing my ground
guitar solo?
welcome to my world 2x
Constant Reminder
Did it ever occur to him
that she was better without him?
he couldn't see past
the devils in his head
but what she never realized
he was always true
in his head and in his heart
but she never looked there
he tried to make her see
and he wound up with his heart
broke in two at his feet
she would tell him
that she would always be there
but he never thought
the day would come
when she would look away
he came to the point
and decided here
that she would always be there
at least inside his heart
This Life Is Killing Me
All around me
things are falling down
my world is crumbling
into dust
I am waiting
all by myself
praying she will
feel my pain
chorus
spending my time with her
knowing we cant be
wishing that she
would just reach out to me
this life is killing me
end chorus
is it love?
or just infatuation?
wondering how
she must feel
trying not to lose
her trust in me
I know how I feel
I wish I knew how she feels
chorus 2x
second chorus
spending all my time
knowing all that we aren't
wishing that she
would just reach out to me
this life is killing me
this DAMN life is killing me
Burned
They put these thoughts inside my head
Ingrained, I can never get them out
How can I trust myself?
When I only break your trust in me
chorus
I feel like I've been burned
Do you smell the smoke
Inside my head it's so strong
If only i hadn't burned myself
end chorus
I'm so fucking confused
I don't remember which way is up
I need my space
To clear my head
No, please don't touch me
I can't bear it
Smoke rises, not falls
And here I am
Sitting on top of a mountain (just like the Dali Lama)
chorus
One night of lust
so scared of myself
How could I do this to you (to me)?
chorus x2
High School Bullshit
After all these years, you would think
Everyone would grow up and go on with their lives
But everythings the fucking same
And all around me, nobody seems to change
Chorus
Grow up and get a clue
Gotta get yourself out of this
Go out and get a life
All of this is high school bullshit
end chorus
Life is good, life is grand
But people just don't understand
You've gotta move on, you've gotta hang on
To what's inside your head
I'm sick of people judging me
I'm sick of people telling me I'm wrong
But in the end, it's only me who knows the real me
chorus
After all these years you would think
everyone would grow up and go on with their lives
But everything's the fucking same
And all around me nobody seems to change
chorus
It's my opinion....respect that
I will always respect yours
chorus x2
Slow Breakdown
sanity escapes me
sitting here all alone
begging for some changes
that never seem to come
chorus
shut the door
turn the key
I'm not your whore
to do as you please
end chorus
locked away inside of me
is something no one sees
my frustration
agitation
looking for a way out of me
in the end it's all desperation
chorus
second chorus
shut the door
turn the key
I'm not you whore
turned on and off at ease
end second chorus
I turned around
ready to run
my mind let's go
I give a shout
then nothing, nothing....
nothing but a slow breakdown
Back
