Stabbing Westward

So Far Away

Each night I feel the distance that has grown between us Open up as lonely as the space between the stars I wish that I could find a way To smash my fist right through these walls Of ugliness and emptiness And gently touch your face But every time that I touch you You feel so far away And every time that you need me I feel so far away As you lie silently beside me choking back your tears I wonder if you recognize That silence now defines us Desperately I try to fight this overwhelming sense That I may never find The strength to change How hopeless we've become And every time that I touch you You feel so far away And every time that you need me I feel so far away We need to find a way to break this silence We need to find a way to break this silence We need to find a way to break this silence that's between us So I scream your name But every time that I touch you You feel so far away And every time that you need me I feel so far away And every time that you reach out You feel me pull away And every time that I touch you, I touch you, I touch you You feel so far away

Perfect

Lately, I've noticed How much you've changed Even though you swear you're the same So why, do I feel a million miles away? Why do I feel like we're broken? Why can't we be, Perfect like we used to be? Why can't we be perfect? Why can't it be, Perfect like it used to be? Why can't it be...perfect? Perfect, is how I once described our love But that was before we fell apart Why do I feel like we're broken? Why can't we be, Perfect like we used to be? Why can't we be perfect? Why can't it be, Perfect like it used to be? Why can't it be...perfect? It used to be perfect (repeat)

I Remember

Do you ever wonder where We would be if we had tried a little harder It seems like yesterday That we were making plans for the future But it's been so long since I have mourned the dreams The dreams that we have left abandoned And I'm haunted by your face And the memory of your kisses Sweet kisses Do you remember? I still remember so much I remember never feeling so alive Do you remember? I still can't forget your touch We swore that we would never end We knew our love, transcend it's place in time As memories slip away The ghost of what we were, it's faded But there is no more pain Which is funny, cuz at night I was dying I was dying Now I don't even recognize the girl I swore that someday i would marry But I can't forget her face And I can't forget her kisses Sweet kisses Do you remember? I still remember so much I remember always feeling so alive Do you remember? I still can't forget your touch We swore that we would never end We knew our love, transcend it's place in time Do you remember? I still remember so much I remember never feeling so alive Do you remember? I still can't forget your touch I swore that we would never be alone Do you remember? I still remember so much I remember never feeling so alive Do you remember? I still can't forget your touch We swore that we would never end We knew our love, transcend it's place in time (repeat) Do your remember? God, I remember so much I remember so...

Wasted

I spent my life running from an emptiness that haunts me And I've spent my whole life trying to f*ck the loneliness away And I die inside When i think of all the people I have damaged But I'm tired I'm so tired And there's no one else except myself to blame And all my life's been wasted Everything is gone My life's been wasted And I'm all alone My life's been wasted There is no one else My life's been wasted And I must face myself I've spent my life trapped inside a cycle of self-destruction And I've spent my whole life trying to numb the pain inside my soul Tonight, I cry When I realized I've fought this world with no one I'm tired I'm so f*cking tired But I find a way to keep my faith alive My life's been wasted Everything is gone My life's been wasted And I'm all alone My life's been wasted There is no one else My life's been wasted And I must face myself When I reach the end Will anything I've done mean anything? Now when I reach the end Will anything I've done mean anything? Will anything I've done mean anything? Will anything I've done mean anything? Cuz my life's been wasted Everything is gone My life's been wasted And I'm all alone My life's been wasted There is no one else My life's been wasted And I must face myself (repeat)

Happy

And I have grown to hate me Even more than you had grown to hate yourself Has it really made a difference? Sharing all that hate with someone else? Please tell me... Are you really happy? Do you think he's really worth the pain? Tell me are you really happy? Or did you simply our life away Just to be unhappy? Does he worship and adore you? Does he make you beautifully complete? Is your life so much better now Or do those same old demons haunt your sleep? Please tell me... Are you really happy? Do you think he's really worth the pain? Tell me are you really happy? Or did you simply throw our life away Just to be unhappy? Just to be unhappy... Is he everything you dreamed of? I imagine he is so much more than me And I tried to make you happy But I believe you thrive on misery So please tell me... Are you really happy? Do you think he's really worth the pain? Tell me are you really happy? Or did you simply our life away Just to be unhappy? Just to be unhappy (repeat)

The Only Thing

All I need, is the air you breathe All I need, is the air I breathe All I need, is the air we breathe All I need, is the air I breate There's so many things We need so desperately And the TV preaches, we can't live without them You tell me what is neat I'll tell you what I believe If I ever were without I'd be worthless Cuz you're everything The only thing that matters You're everything The only thing I need You're everything The only thing that matters You're everything, you are the air I breathe What if someday We took all their toys away You think they'd find the strength to go on with it Cuz deep inside I know If I lost everything I owned I'd be a king as long as you're beside me Cuz you're everything The only thing that matters Cuz you're everything The only thing I need You're everything The only thing that matters Cuz you're everything, you are the air I breathe The air I breathe... I air that I breathe... The air I breathe... The air I breathe... I hope someday they find A place to bid on life Where all our souls can buy Our lives some meaning I know we'll survive All we need's more time As long we've got love in our emotions Cuz you're everything The only thing that matters We're everything There's nothing else I need Our love is everything The only thing that matters Cuz you are everything, you are the air I breathe The air I breath (repeat) You're everything, the only thing that matters You are everthing, cuz there is nothing else I need You are eveyrthing, the only thing that matters Our love is everything, you are the air I breathe (repeat)

Angel

I believed that love was sacred As I dove blindly into her sea The sea that wore my light when I was drowning Cuz then these waves crashed over me As meaning able to love her Eating up my mind and up my soul I find love in many Any A sickened desperate need that drains me God, I hope I never feel again And I've never been loved by an angel I never felt anything so pure And I've never been loved by an angle Until tonight When you're everything in my world She said that love could lift my higher With a kiss she repaired these broken wings She revived my failing spirit Restored my faith in everything I have never felt I had it all Even in a crowd I felt alone And I must give it up for that I believe eternal life I never thought I'd ever feel again But I've never been loved by an angel I never felt anything so pure God, I've never been loved by an angel Until tonight When you're everything, my world I believed in nothing But you believed in me I thought that life was worthless But you told me I'm a star... God, I've never been loved by an angel I've never felt anything so pure God, I've never been loved by an angle Until tonight When you're everything, my world Until tonight When you're everything, my world

Breathe You In

Tonight came too soon I barely made it through today Still empty inside I guess nothing's really changed I'm still afraid of fear Cuz I cannot take the blame I'm still afraid to feel Afraid to lose someone again I wish that somehow I could Leave my past behind, my fears behind, If I could only Breathe you in If I could only Breathe you in If I could only Breathe you in Every drop of you Guess it's time to face the truth And admit my past mistakes Come to terms with all that's wrong with me And all the things I'll never be Why am I afraid to feel? Afraid of what is true Why am I afraid to feel? When all I really want is you To taste your skin To feel your thoughts Never be enough for me If I could only Breathe you in If I could only Breathe you in If I could only Breathe you in Every drop of you If I could only Breathe you in If I could only Breathe you in If I could only Breathe you in Every drop of you

High

I can't hide it I can't fight it When every nerve is crying out for release I cannot capture the rapture The passion that is buring inside of me I've lost so much Chasing that perfect high I've lost so much.. I've never been as high as I was with you I've never been so high I've never been as high as I was with you I finally realized That's a perfect high That's a perfect high Yeah! This hunger, it consumes me I lost my soul as much As much as you run through my viens Pathetic, little junkie But I'm the whore that needs it one last time I've lost so much Chasing that perfect high I've lost so much.. I've never been as high as I was with you I've never been so high I've never been as high as I was with you I finally realized That's a perfect high That's a perfect high Yeah! I've never been as high as I was with you I've never been so high I've never been as high as I was with you I finally realized That's a perfect high That's a perfect high That's the perfect high Yeah, that's the perfect high

Television

Sit alone Contemplating what is missing inside me I desperately try to remember A life that's not meant to be I meditate and try to recapture Some sense of reality But I look around I see numb, empty faces The world is waiting to die And this apathy is so suffocating To slowly kill off my mind I've searched the worl for someone with answers The questions that are plaguing me I scream in vain at anyone who'll listen But everyone is watching TV Say These words I love Am I lost in a world where nothing matters? Am I lost in a world where no one cares? Is anyone else here? Does anyone else care? Are we lost in a world where nothing matters? Are we lost in a world where no one cares? Where no one cares...
