The Birdman

hopelessly a man starts to feed your day
once he was there you never looked back
how did you think that his words might just fade away
he seemed harmless enough so you let him in and now you'll pay

i can't see him but he's stalking my thoughts
how does it feel when you can't concentrate?
i just stare
all of your daydreams are a seesaw for him to play on

how does it feel when he calls your name
you can plug your ears but it's not the same
how does it feel when he pulls you back

nobody's wrong nobody's right the birdman wouldn't lie
nobody's wrong nobody's right but i just can't trust him tonight

how do you forget a stranger that plagues your days
we arm ourselves when there's nothing to fear right?
wrong

how does it feel when it comes to pass there's something there
but it's not quite right
how does it feel, does it make you mad?

Supersatellite

i've read the bible, i've read Dylan,
i'm reading people now
because it is much more chilling
i sit on a satellite
with the stars made of gold
there's life through that hollow lens

i know supersatellite
i watch the traffic,
i find the seeds

there's one man in particular
who's not what he seems
i can't focus in
on the lies in his head
he's convinced that his blood is blue
but it's red

supersatellite

nothing dazzles me,
i am in his dreams
nothing is shocking,
transparent human being
Up

Starseed

i let go of the world that was holding
a passenger that could not fly
in search of souls
souls in search of something
let it go
let it slide

when i find out what went on
i'll bring it back
it won't be easy
they won't believe how a man
he could drown
in a starseed

i hoped to find why this world wasn't glowing
glowing it darkens as we end this ride
i've fallen back under the equator
I'm back inside I'm back inside

when i find out what went on
i'll bring it back but it won't be easy
they won't believe the man he could
but i'd choose starseed over nothing
nothing
Up

Hope

Hope climbs atop of the piano
reaching out towards the warmth of the sun
some man tries to ask her down
but now maybe that's where she belongs

my god she said,
i'm the sunflower who wants
my god he said,
this woman is gone
into the dark
is there anybody there
my god she said

he climbed up top to find that she was slipping
Let her go, let her go, let me go
how long must we leave before we're winning
they don't know, they don't know they just don't know
If she can't be there I know it's best that
nothing is denied
If she can't be there it's best that
everyone change sides
Up

Naveed

are you there, and is it comfortable?
did you want to escape, try to escape the population?
the pressure is deceiving,
and for you particularly should we let a young man die?

let him die if he wants to?
I can't live here anymore
it's hard when you reach for that floor and
and there's something that tears me inside, so I can't go

brother are you there?
now tell me is it wonderful
or were you hoping to find something a little more?

climbing down the hours I need to know now
do the hands of time only rule this chapter
i'll have to try once again, i'll have to try when I want to
there he's on his knees again
trying hard to understand
why Naveed would let a young man die
convinced that he might break he reaches for that phone
and then another day has gone
Up

Dirty Walls

so you feel that stain of dried up discussions without weight
It's that feeling you will not have to destroy
It's that feeling that you will not have to ignore

the dirty walls

So you've been plagued, but is everything okay
I cannot bear the shallow words they throw
It's that feeling that you will not have to employ
it's that feeling that you will not ...
it's got to go

this conversation is going nowhere
it's transparent as fuck
this conversation must be over
because all i see is mud
Up

Denied

the telephone is ringing, disconnect the line
the tension is building but I'm alright
the stars are colliding, so you might as well let me go

the television is burning because I set it on fire
the wheels they keep turning, but i'm fine
what about the questions we have locked up inside

somewhere, somehow
we've been denied
hand in hand we walk behind pretending,
defending while our souls are tied

It's only the third hour, my conscience subsides
But something reminds me that you lied
What about the consequences?
This can't be right
Up

Is It Safe?

time can't fix it fast enough,
so we won't notice what it was that went wrong
I saw something there much too familiar
a butterfly with a broken wing
she's fallen under, she's past the end,
communication is down again
the scars have healed but they're back again
we've got to believe this man must bend
because if you could you'd try and destroy her
and there we would be with nothing at all

Is it safe to be a man
when your tired and lonely
only the confident know where to stand

Is it safe to be man
when the world is loaded with thousands
that can't figure out just what they did
time can't fix it fast enough,
so we won't measure just how far below you kept pushing her
you'll have to pay back all of the years that you stole
she's walking backwards,
she's spun around her ears are ringing loud,
how does it feel, does it make you mad?
she's on her knees
please understand how obvious it is
that this man must bend
Up

Julia

can you see her standing there trying to find anywhere
there are flowers in her hand but she doesn't know why
offered is advice to you but all you do is fake it

mother, she's only yours tonight and she never cries mother,
I know there is hurt inside Julia

drowning in her own visions,
she's begging the past to stay behind
there's a black cat in the night,
there's a black cat in that sky
offered is advice to you, you left but I don't blame you

we're digging up the past to bury it one last time
I know there's pain inside that truth
but you just have to face it
Up

Under Zenith

maybe they'll come back again maybe they're all gone
one day you'll find me sending their message strong
under your feet the city falls down so far the ground is sky

we're under zenith again,
it's healthy if not for long
leave a little room for us to breathe

much more than seven days and you've slipped to deep
much stronger than sympathy, let your best friend pull back that
leash
sitting by a frozen man, someone somewhere has to cry

were under zenith again let the cycle run we won't die
leave a little room for us to breathe

I love how you let me fall
under but not to far
I love how you let me fall
only now I see where we are
hold me
Up

Neon Crossing

all you people can feel it waiting
innocence and love, wrapped in the arms of the burning neon
I feel it, I feel it

it's so entertaining and so wonderful
it magically calls for you
big neon crossing show me the way
save my soul today

don't you worry and don't be afraid
does it send you to the world appealing
where there is spoken word that I can't take
so I'm the liar, I'm the liar

you'd be so disappointed
to find out that the magic was not
really meant for you

Superman's Dead

do you worry that you're not liked
how long till you break
you're happy cause you smile
but how much can you fake
an ordinary boy an ordinary name
but ordinary's just not good enough today

alone I'm thinking
why is superman dead
is it in my head
we'll just laugh instead
you worry about the weather and
whether or not you should hate

are you worried about your faith
kneel down and obey
you're happy you're in love
you need someone to hate
an ordinary girl an ordinary waist
but ordinary's just not good enough today

doesn't anybody ever know that the
world's a subway...
Up

Automatic Flowers

and Sara thinks she's died here once before
she's crazy
a pop-up book of flowers from grade 4
are driving her insane
no-one knows why
she's sad tonight
no-one can help her find

crying, she couldn't afford
the view
crying, these automatic flowers won't
do

another brick
another window frames the confusion
her garden blooms but Sara can't see straight
she's drinking herself blind
Up

Carnival

You know you're not a strong man
and you're just about to cry
hang on it's all right
you worry about the future
the sign said "Yoga class for cats"
it's okay...

the dynamite is waiting
they bankrupted the sky

you're frustrated by the cracks in
the pavement
and every mother's back...
once again
the carnival closed down
but if this world ever turns around
you'll be there
when everyone is sane you'll be there
Up

Big Dumb Rocket

I've never seen your breath before
but I'm disgusted by the thought of
waiting anymore
If I look up in your eyes
will you notice me or notice it or
fade into this accident

I don't want to find
the big dumb rocket on your mind
its mostly you & mostly me
and a tired gun that's not empty

I've never been this sad before
but I'm disgusted by my fingertips
and what they've done
if I look into your eyes
if it must be true you must believe
I've never held such violent things
I've never talked to God before tonight
but I'm disgusted by...
Up

4am

I walked around my good intentions
and found that there were none
I blame my father for the wasted years
we hardly talked
I never thought I would forget this hate
then a phone call made me realize
I'm wrong

If I don't make it known that
I've loved you all along
just like the sunny days that
we ignore because
we're all dumb & jaded
and I hope to God I figure out
what's wrong

I walked around my room
not thinking
just sinking in this box
I blame myself for being too much
like somebody else
I never thought I would just
bend this way
Up

Shaking

so you fucked this up again
it's time for you to leave
you never had many friends
and you thought this was all right
you're rushing to meditate
you should eat but probably wait
you never thought of yourself

why are you shaking
why are you right
when I will be the only one who gives
and lets you in tonight

walk you could never walk away
from this speedfreak collagen
caffinated place
you were always reaching in
looking for somewhere to go
nobody needs to find out
nobody needs to know what you know

so you wonder about the past
when you know that its already been
nothing seems to last
can it last will it last
Up

Clumsy

throw away the radio suitcase
that keeps you awake
hide the telephone in case, you
realize that sometimes you're not okay
you level off but its not all right now
you need to understand
there's nothing strange about this
you need to know your friends
I'll be waving my hand watching you drown
watching you scream
quiet or loud

maybe you should sleep
maybe you just need a friend
as clumsy as you've been
there's no one laughing
you will be safe in here

Throw away this very old shoelace
that tripped you again
try and shrug it off
it's only skin now
you need to understand
there's nothing fake about this
you need to let me in
I'm watching you
Up

Hello Oskar

over there well he's wondering
is Oskar there is Oskar all right
was never cool not allowed to fit
he never knew what he liked

over there he's the rubberman
a rubber dress with Betty Page eyes
was never cool he'll never settle down
he's not allowed to drive
he'll build a bridge then walk around
don't ever call him dumb
he's not that bright
he's just not himself

I will take you somewhere
somewhere to unwind
you're tangled up in all this shit
I will make you mine
over there he's a superstar
a taximan and a young Eisenstein

Let You Down

hey what do you see
its not me not me
why won't you share
it's not fair
there's a bicycle show
where the bicycle's float
and I wouldn't of cared

I won't be the one who bothers you
I won't be the one who lets you down

now that you're there
you're not scared
why would you care
it's your dream
not theirs
there's a cigarette thief
stealing cigarette disease
I wish I was there

The Story of 100 Aisles

help yourself
if you know why you came
cause if you need help she says...
there's something I've got saved
this is not what you wanted
these candy coated fakes
this is not what you wanted
this is pain

anacin, we're stumbling again
it's the story of a hundred aisles

walk away from simple on a tray
cause if you need help she says
these fancy pills don't rate
this is not what you wanted
a miracle today

time is not for sale today
time seems so far away
you need more than this
depressed come here try this
Up

Car Crash

tired & jaded
this road is unsafe
have you been there
but time is on your side
you're too stubborn to wait
are you listening
they want you to know
they want you to stay
but its too much to take
so you're running away

it's more than I can bear

car crash
ending your day
at the side of the road
are you trembling
they'll wake up today
to the papers that say
"oh well" it was too hard to tell
he was swerving they were swerving
much too late

Happiness... Is Not A Fish That You Can Catch

One Man Army

Take these plastic people
Read their lips, now let it linger
Is there anything that makes them sound sincere?
Tightly hold your hand
Take a deep breath, give them the finger
Are you worried
That your thoughts are not quite clear?
(Twitch)
Overlooked, unfit appearance

I remember falling
I remember marching
Like a one man army
Through the blaze
I remember coughing
I believe in something
I don't want to remember falling
For their lies

Unbutton your clothes
Undress your soul, show them your vigor
Are those inhibitions easiest to fear?
Take this gasoline tin
Head up high , walk like a winner
Let the bare feet be the last sound that they hear
Up

Happiness & The Fish

I confess
Everyone is overweight
And I'm obsessed
Talking is just masturbating
Without the mess
Addiction leaves you sad today
& unimpressed
I can't remember all the names because
Everyone you meet today
Is just so fucking vain

Bored again by happiness
All those friends I've (die) lost in there

I'm upset
Happiness is not a fish
That you can catch
Imagination can't resist
This laziness
That pins you down, get on your knees
Everyone you meet today
Is feeling useless & ashamed
Up

Potato Girl

We live, we die
I don't know the reasons we ask why
We hate, we push
Recent tests show we are all misunderstood

Something's seizing
You know you lost your mind
You know we all need saving
She found you late last night
You feel the madness gaining
You know you just can't win
You know this
But I'm just so tired of waking up on the ground
I never knew the girl
And I never knew the world hurt

We beg, we pray
But everything still happens anyway
Something's teasing
Your conscience can't decide
She stopped your will from caving
But left you paranoid

You feel the constant straining
She reappears divine
You noticed
But I'm just so tired of waking up all alone
Up

Blister

Waiting they're chasing me
No one listens but I'm OK with it

Only I wonder why
If only my hands weren't tied
The world's a blister
But I'm OK with it

What if I was there
What if I was scared
I'm waiting for...
They're at my door
But I'll be back again

Lonely, I'm wandering
Patrolling for enemies
No one listens but I'm ok with it
Up

Is Anybody Home?

Goodbye, the future's sold out
There's no use screaming
Who thought we'd ever get this far

Tonight, your faith has come down
To money & a TV
Psychics who've never been to mars
And nazis breast feeding
I know you must be upset
I can't find meaning
I'm sorry, we're sorry
We're all scared, all scared

Hey is anybody home
Has anybody wasted tears on the loneliness
That everyone becomes

Goodnight, the truth has come out
Everyone's needy
White teeth, a ticket to meet god
Be all that you envy
The shotgun under your bed has
Started breathing
You shot it, you shot it
I'm bare, I'm bare

Hey, is anybody home
Has anybody painted fear
On the bedroom walls that save us from...
Up

Waited

Hit the ground
Weighed down again
You walked out
But I'm sure you're my friend

It must have been good
This can't be for good
Everyone's....
Is everyone OK

I waited
But I must be too dumb to be proud
Because I waited, I waited

Woke to sounds
I prayed you were there
I fell back down
But I'm sure you still care
Up

Thief

I don't want to understand this horror
There's a weight in your eyes that I can't admit
Everybody ends up here in bottles
But the name tags the last thing that you wanted
As the world explodes we fall out of it
But we can't let go because this
Will not go away
There's a house built out in space...

I can't see that thief that lives inside of your head
But I can be some courage at the side of your bed
I don't know what's happening and I won't pretend
But I can be your....

Someone help us understand who ordered
This disgusting arrangement with time and the end
I don't want to hear who walked on water
Because the hallways are empty and the clock ticks
Up

Lying Awake

I'm here to wear you out
I'm here to watch you hide
Nothing to figure out
I'm here to watch you die
Running away from the breast of
Your busy giant healing machine

Nobody left in line
No-one to make you shine
Hanging on to the backs of opinions
You've borrowed & betrayed

Lying awake
Don't ask why you should pay for this
A mother
Another
A shameless abusing
But this time we're saving you

I'm here to break you down
I'm here to bury time
Nothing to talk about
Nothing to change my mind
Up

Annie

You're a little bit shy
A little too quiet
You're the mixed up girl
That everybody leaves behind
A little bit weird
A little too bright
But you just might be
That little bomb at their side
They'll pull your hair
They'll leave you wide-eyed
But did anybody wonder
What Annie might have in mind
Oh, no

There's something in the way she explains to me
"Please be careful, i exist in someone else's head"
Oh, no
There's something in the way that she makes believe
Please be careful,
Annie dreams that everyone is dead

You're a little bit dry
A little uptight
You're the messed up girl
That every body tries to hide
You've had enough
They're too unkind
But did anyone consider
What Annie might have in mind
Oh, no...
Up

Consequence of Laughing

Take all your pills and divide them
By color & size
Take all your problems and advise them
That everything's fine
Since you ran away you've been beating
Your habits to death
But if you were to stay would you feed them
This white happiness

Nobody wants to harm you
When you're outside
But it's hard to believe
When everyone's killing time
Somebody knows
That you're not laughing

Take all your pills and divide them
By number and might
Take all your problems chastise them
Because everything's fine
Since you've ran away you've been beating
Those ladders instead
But if you were to stay would you feed them
With violence
Up

Stealing Babies

I'm teething on the answers you're saving
How are you going to make me understand
I'm dreaming while your stealing babies
How are you going to help me sleep again
How should I say "I'm so sorry"
How should I pray to know that we're alive

Eve stands alone
By the knock on the door
By the thin in her bones
She's courageous & loving
Exhausted & cold
She's not ready to go
But the ghost on the phone
Helps her safely into her dream

You're leaving pieces of family
How are you going to help them understand
I'm screaming while you're stealing babies
Why do you want to knock us down again

Right Behind You (Mafia)

You haven't seen the world outside
For days you sleep you hope you wait
Imagination disappears and all
The dreams you have you save
Confrontation like a mirror they try
To take your mind away
I don't know but i believe in
Yesterday and what it means to bleed
And know that you're okay

No matter what you do
No matter what you say
I'm always right there behind you

Bombarded by the atmosphere
You breathe you choke you breathe again
Conversation disappears you realize
They're not your friends
The panic of the future rears
You dig you jerk you find another way

In Repair

Well it's good to know that you'll be okay
I've been waiting for this
And I'll be there to sit while you pray
No one's blaming me
I'm not supposed to wait
When they open up your heart
I have been good
I understood
And like a machine they'll fix you
From the start
I'm in repair
The life that we share
I know that I'll be lost but we're always in repair

And it's good to know that you'll drive away
From this car crash nightmare
And I'll be there to help you again
There's no danger we're just
Killing time again
Until they order up new parts

Life

How many times have you been
Pushed around
Is anybody there
Does anybody care
How many times have your friends
Let you down
Is anybody there
Did anybody stare
How many times has your faith slipped away
Is everybody high
Is everyone afraid
How many times have you wished you
Were strong
Have they ever seen your heart
Have they ever seen your pain

Life is waiting for you
It's all messed up but we're alive
Life is waiting for you
It's all messed up but we'll survive

Middle Of Yesterday

Oh, well I woke up in hell today
I woke up depressed and drained
But that's okay 'cause
I promised not to hurt you again
And apparently I'm to blame
But apparently I've been framed
By a memory that won't help
Me when it's happening
Out of the mind soul light control

Standing in the middle of yesterday
Where it all went wrong
Where we made mistakes
I'm sorry for the things I forgot to say
But it won't be long
Until it will be okay

Well I promised you I would I change
But I'm an asshole and I'm ashamed
I'm upset 'cause I betrayed everything
That you gave
Will you ever let me explain
Can I beg you to let me stay
Don't quit me
'Cause I'll never let this happen...again

Up

Are You Sad?

Your life has seemed so hard
It's been dried up angels
That can't keep guard
I'm trying to reach your hand
But I'm on fire I never planned to
Fade away, stay with me
Stop pretending when they say you're nothing
Are you sad
Are you holding yourself
You shouldn't be
Are you sad
Are you locked in your room
You shouldn't be

I'm drowning inside your head
Help me to answer help understand
But it's been so long since we talked
Like friends, please forgive me
I'm just a man whose made mistakes

Made to Heal

I gave up on you
And your exercise
And the world that I knew
I fell back on you
Because I need more time
And I need an excuse
You're a thief a liar
An angel caught on the fire
A king a drug
The push that comes to shove
A freak a star
I am everything you are
I'm your Jesus I'm your pride
We're made to heal

I depend on you
For the wings of life
And the air that you move

I defended you
For this one last time
And the nerves you abuse
We're made to heal

Everyone's A Junkie

I'm not waiting for the answers
On a Sunday afternoon
I'm just too drunk to remember
Why I always slip through

The drugs and fake ambition
Have been helping me to hide
But it's the endless television
That has kept me inside
Where does it stop where does it end
Where do we go
Why am I always complaining
I can be good I can be bad
I can be loved
Everything's gone black
You're looking for that sun
You're looking for that light
You're not the only one to feel that way

I'm not looking for forgiveness
For the things that I don't know
I'm really not that different
You just made me think so

All My Friends

All my friends alone on a hill
They're just looking down with violent
Minds out on loan
They're just not equipped
Insistence
We hope for the best
We're not making sense
In silence wait for the day
When you're better than

In this silence
I'm not buying
But you're not faking
I'm not
I guess we better hold on again
'Cause this time
We won't understand again
I'm not waiting for some sense
Still they sit alone on a hill
Their mechanical thoughts
Have left them out on their own
They're not buying this

Up

If You Believe

So you made up your mind
You're tired of trying
Time to be scared
You wanted to fly
But you can't close your eyes
Time to beware

If you believe in the world I'm calling
If you believe in the world I saw
If you believe in the world I'm calling
You'd be strong

So you wasted your time
You willed it good-bye
Time to be scared
You thought you could buy
Your last piece of mind
Time to beware

The Wonderful Future

She builds her own satellite
From an old rusted chair
She leaves this old world behind
And the things that she cares

Maybe she's gone
But it won't be for long
What do I know?
Maybe she's found
What we all dream about
What do I know?

She's beautiful and wonderful
I can't compare
It's not that fair

She builds a strong alibi
From the future that's here
She needs to know I'm alive
And that I'm flesh and I tear

Maybe she's wrong
But I won't mind my own
What do I know?
A bess and let go*
With a touch of her soul
What do I know?

She's beautiful and wonderful
I can't compare
It's not that fair.

All For You

A suburban man at my door,
But I don't think I'll let him in
He wants discipline,
Discipline, control over the way I live,
Wants the best for me
Old school philosophy
But I can't turn my back on him,
He's a part of me
Buy me anything, but I just need a friend

It's all for you
You got me where you want
It's all for you, oh
Just stop breaking my heart
You're the blood of a seed and it's all that I need
Got me where you want
It's all for you, oh
You got me, oh, you got me

Jack Kerouac, Kerouac
On the road and in my head
And the irrelevance, intelligence,
A new tattoo, a lot more sex
Broken families,
A new enemy
And you will not make up for this
This suburban man, he wants discipline,
But I just need a friend

It's all for you
You got me where you want
It's all for you
Just stop breaking my heart
You're the blood of a seed and its all that I need
Got me where you want
It's all for you
You got me, oh, you got me where you want

Leave me alone.

Do You Like It

I crawled out from the pain of yesterday
I crawled to you
And I said all the things that you said to say
Have I said enough?
Do you like it?

I know why you're playin' these dirty games
They're killing me
And I know how you love to watch me beg
Well, here I am
Do you like it?

I don't wanna be a puppet for you,
Don't wanna bite the hand that's feeding,
I don't wanna be a sucker for you,
I hate myself for begging,
I hate myself for staying,
I hate myself for listening to you.

It's too little too late
Well, I can't escape
So begging you, please,
I changed all the things that you told me to change
I'm on my knees
Do you like it?

I don't wanna be a puppet for you,
Don't wanna bite the hand that's feeding,
I don't wanna be a sucker for you,
I hate myself for begging,
I hate myself for staying,
I hate myself for listening to you.

I just wanna get out,
Stuck inside of this
Waiting for something else,
Waiting to exist
Can you offer me help?
Help from what I missed...
Do you like it?

I don't wanna be a puppet for you,
Don't wanna bite the hand that's feeding,
I don't wanna be a sucker for you,
I hate myself for begging,
I hate myself for staying,
I hate myself for listening to you.

Somewhere Out There

Last time I talked to you,
You were lonely and out of place
You were looking down on me, lost out in space
Laid underneath the stars,
Strung out on feeling brave,
I watched the red-orange glow
I watched it float away.
Down here, in the atmosphere
Garbage and city lights.
Gonna save your tired soul
Gonna save our lives.
Turned on the radio to find you on satellite,
I'm waiting for the sky to fall,
I'm waiting for a sign
Though we are, it's all so far

You're falling back to me,
The star that I can see,
I know your out there, somewhere out there,
Your falling out of reach
Defying gravity,
I know your out there, somewhere out there.

Hope you remember me,
When you're home sick and need a change.
I'll miss your purple hair,
I'll miss the way you taste
I know you'll come back some day
On a bed of nails I wait,
I'm praying that you don't burn out or fade away
And though we are, it's all so far

You're falling back to me,
The star that I can see,
I know your out there, somewhere out there,
Your falling out of reach
Defying gravity,
I know your out there, somewhere out there.

Innocent

Oh, Johnny wishes he was famous,
Spends his time alone in the basement
With Lennon and Cobain and
A guitar and a stereo.
And while he wishes he could escape this,
But it all seems so contagious -
Not to be yourself and faceless,
And a song that has no soul.
I remember feeling low,
I remember losing hope,
And I remember all the feelings and the day they stopped.

We are, we are all innocent,
We are all innocent
We are, we are...

Oh, I dreamed of losing faith and what she knows,
And some music hits on the foreclose,
Thinks of surgery and a new nose,
And the galleries of war,
And while she wishes she was a dancer,
And that she'd never heard of cancer,
She wishes God would give her some answers,
And make her feel beautiful.
I remember feeling low,
I remember losing hope,
I remember all the feelings and the day they stopped.

We are, we are all innocent,
We are all innocent
We are, we are...

One day, you'll have to let it go,
You'll have to let it go,
No.
One day, you'll stand up on your own,
You'll stand up on your own.
Remember losing hope,
Remember feeling low,
Remember all the feelings and the day they stopped.

We are, we are all innocent,
We are all innocent
We are, we are...

Made of Steel

I can be anything that you want me to be -
A punching bag, a piece of string,
That reminds you not to think.
I found the note down in your car,
And it's not your fault it gets this hard,
Gets this hard.
Hold your head high,
Don't look down,
I'm by your side,
Won't back down.

You wanted a hero tonight,
Well I'm not made of steel,
I'm not made of steel.
But your secrets safe with me,
I can be anything that you want me to be,
A holy cross, some sympathy,
That reminds you not to bleed.
I found the note down in your car,
And you climbed up here to fall apart,
Fall apart.
Hold your head high,
Don't look down,
I'm by your side,
Won't back down.

You wanted a hero tonight,
Well I'm not made of steel,
I'm not made of steel.
But your secrets safe with me,
No.
Your secrets safe with me,
They knock you down,
I'll pick you up.
They laugh at you,
I'll shut them up.
But I'm not made of steel.
But I'm not made of steel
But I'm not made of steel
But your secrets safe with me
Hold your head high,
Don't look down,
I'm by your side,
Won't back down.
You wanted a hero tonight.

Sell My Soul

How do you feel?
How do you hate?
How do you wake up with the smile that's on your face?
Out on the moon,
If I was an astronaut could I get back to you?
I'm out of my head,
I'm out of excuses so I'm staring at the bed.
And it's you,
It's you...
I hold on, I hold on,
I can't let go,
And you don't know how I feel.
Hold on, I hold on,
I'd sell my soul,
And you don't know how I feel.

Losing my heart,
Losing my pride,
I'd burn our initials in the sun if it would shine,
I need a fresh start,
I was in heaven until this one fell apart.
Out on the run,
Out on this empty space since all this begun,
I try, I try...
I hold on, I hold on,
I can't let go,
And you don't know how I feel.
Hold on, I hold on,
I'd sell my soul,
And you don't know how I feel.

And nothing seems to help,
And nothing seems to work,
And nothing isn't beautiful,
I'm old enough to take all the blame for all of us.
There's all the games and all the faces,
I'm bleeding by myself and I'm okay...
Hold on, I hold on,
I can't let go,
And you don't know how I feel.
Hold on, I hold on,
I'd sell my soul,
And you don't know how I feel.

Not Enough

There's nothing you can say,
Nothing you can do,
There's nothing in between,
You know the truth.
Nothing left to face,
There's nothing left to lose,
Nothing takes your place,
When they say:
You're not that strong,
You're not that weak,
It's not your fault.
And when you climb up to your hill,
Up to your place,
I hope you're well.

There's nothing left to prove,
There's nothing I won't do,
There's nothing like the pain,
I feel for you.
Nothing left to hide,
Nothing left to feel,
I am always here,
When they say:
You're not that strong,
You're not that weak,
It's not your fault.
And when you climb up to your hill,
Up to your place,
I hope you're well.

What you want,
What you lost,
What you had,
What is gone is over.
What you got,
What you love,
What you need,
What you have is real.
It's not enough,
It's not enough, I'm sorry
It's not enough,
When they say:
You're not that strong,
You're not that weak,
It's not your fault.
And when you climb up to your hill,
Up to your place,
I hope you're well.
It's not enough
No.

Sorry

Today's a reason for living,
Today's the blood from a stone,
Today's a light from a candle,
Helping us to find our way home.
Today we carry each other,
Today the past is a freak,
Today's a time for forgiveness,
You were never that good to me.
Welcome to this world of mine,
I'm sorry, I can't lie.
I'm wasting too much time,
Drowning I've been blind.
But I've opened up my eyes,
Sorry, I can't lie.
So I just say goodbye,
Goodbye.

Today's tasting the honey,
Today's the strike of a match,
And today's the lines in the pavement,
Helping us to find our way back.
Today's the crosses we carry,
Today's the strength that we need,
And today's the hand of an angel,
You were not the kind to believe.
Welcome to this world of mine,
I'm sorry, I can't lie.
I'm wasting too much time,
Drowning I've been blind.
But I've opened up my eyes ,
Sorry, I can't lie.
So I just say goodbye,
Goodbye.

Oh what a day, oh what a day, oh my God,
And oh my God, and oh my God...
Today we carry each other,
Today we do what we should,
Today's a time for forgiving,
Today I wish I could
I'm sorry, I can't lie,
I'm wasting too much time,
Drowning, I've been blind,
But I've opened up my eyes.
Sorry, I can't lie,
So I just say goodbye,
Goodbye.

Bring Back the Sun

Little white house -
It's everything we dream about,
We wanted you to know,
I'm hanging up my ego.
We shouldn't have to fight,
Or worry about the bills tonight,
I wanted you to know,
I wanna be your shadow,
Mystery's gone.
So bring back the sun,
Oh, bury this hate,
Build it with love.

Little batter high,
Grass wasn't greener I found,
Wanted you to know,
Well, I dug you up a rainbow.
Mystery's gone.
So bring back the sun,
Oh, bury this hate,
Build it with love.

And I know,
I know I failed you,
And I hope,
I hope we get through,
Show me your hand again,
And I know,
I know I failed you,
And I hope,
I hope we get through.
Soul signed hand.
Mystery's gone.
So bring back the sun,
Oh, bury this hate,
Build it with love.
Little white house...

A Story about a Girl

Story about a girl...
Story about the world...
Suddenly something I'm not,
You're something that you bought,
Was it something I said, my friend?
A little girl, are you tripping on this?
Are you tripping all over it?
You better come up for air.
Story about a girl...
Story about the world...
And are you waking up slowly?
You're nothing but lonely.
Are you waking up holding,
Holding your breath?
And are you looking for something?
I promised you one thing,
I promise I'll always
Always be there.
Baby-girl, stand up and fight,
This is not some paradise,
Oh, it's just where we live.
And finally you think you're alright,
And that it eats you up alive.
You better get used to it,
Story about a girl...
Story about the world...
And are you waking up slowly?
You're nothing but lonely.
Are you waking up holding,
Holding your breath?
And are you looking for something?
I promised you one thing,
I promise I'll always,
Always be there.
With all my faith,
And all my heart,
And all those simple things you are .
I know, it's stuck inside your head,
You're alone.
You better get used to it.
And I know, the feeling has to end.
You're strong.
It sucks you in again.
And you're lost,
You can't make any sense.
This world,
It tears you limb from limb.
And hold on,
You're nothing but the best...
And are you waking up slowly?
You're nothing but lonely.
Are you waking up holding,
Holding your breath?
Are you looking for something?
I promised you one thing,
I promise I'll always,
Always be there.
With all my faith,
And all my heart,
And all those simple things you are...
