Tongue-Tie 02:14
Forgot to start what I already finished I woke up wishing I didn't I don't believe I could explain The right words all fell out of hand The dashboard and the windshield are the only ones who understand Tongue tied and terrified The kind of thing you'll never know My mind is faster than my mouth but I won't let it show It all made sense talking to myself I should think before I speak It'll never sound as good as it did in my head It'll never sound as good as it did in bed
2.
Envy 02:44
Drop me off the top of the highest building Break me like you could care less Look at me and say that you want me this way I've become so petty in my eyes I wonder where you go when I talk to you I drink myself to sleep to run this feeling dry Out of sight Out of mind Out of answers Out of time How frustrating it is to hear the words you wish you said come out of someone else's mouth You can't take it back once you've spoken Bad habits are best left on the floor broken Fill my cup to the top with envy I wish that you were jealous just like me
3.
Fake Love 03:26
My heart's covered in dust, but I've got love carved out of lust that'll last me for the night There's a hole in my head growing non-stop I'll tear you up and laugh it off like it could ever be enough Have we met before? I'm sorry, was this bed of nails made for you and me? I fake love so good but you know were just two warm bodies, and that's all we'll ever be How's it feel to be just fine with ripping apart someones mind Why can't you go ahead and just say what this really is Say what you fucking mean and tell me what i don't want to hear I'm just your puppet on a string that's wrapped around me neck
4.
Bleedout 01:57
If i called you tomorrow would it be a waste of your time? I hang my head low so I can't see your face and no one sees mine I've got a secret that I've been keeping I'm pathetic on my floor You stare through a picture frame and give me the feeling of nausea inside my gut Smiles become fake Cracks, they've become breaks I would give it all if I could still be your mistake to make My mind is worse than my eye I was left to bleed out when I just wanted to die Bottled up, it's still inside of me but you won't know what you don't care to see
5.
Blame Me 02:55
I don't want to be here but i'll stay Not old enough to know it all and too young to feel jaded I don't want to be here but i'll stay stuck in between You've killed this for me Drenched in cold blood, you can have it all I don't want it anymore I've lost a reason to care I'm the smog clogging up the air I'm your cross to bear I hate the words I'm made to sing when I don't want to be anything but you'll be pinned with victimized charm and i'll be pinned as wrong Blame me for everything, it's fine It can be my fault Blame me for everything and we'll watch it fall apart
6.
Stop The Car 02:44
I saw fire laced in blue Took what I had of common sense and threw it away How would it make you feel if I said I took every look that i could steal? Almost fell through my hands Almost too good to be real Stop the car and let me out, so I can walk back into a room full of no one I still don't see just what made it so beautiful to me Maybe it was the moment I found true honesty If I left right now would you forget my name? If you woke up next to me would you let me stay? If I told you what i thought would you tell me i was wrong? 'Cause I don't think I'm the only one
7.
Numb 02:48
I live inside myself, frustrated and burnt out. Lost my train of thought and lost my mind but I found I'm miles above all the rest Of all the liars I'm the best No one knows the lies I tell and I'm sure they never will I keep quiet things that I should say I can't stand the sound of my own voice anyway If you find out what it is that made you whole well don't let me know There's no fairness in the outcome and no truth in what you preach I wish karma would kill you I wish there was such a thing What happened to my life? I used to know was it was like To be angry To be real To be selfish I wanna be selfish
8.
Homesick 03:02
The look that's on my face matches the dirty clothes that you wear Now I guess we'll see whether or not I really care You told me that you had your own things to do I couldn't argue with that even if I wanted to I cross your street and pace your front door steps like I will never see them again I drove all night to be there when you woke up I would have stayed home if I knew you would just shut me out I see your face and look into your eyes like I will never see them again You were my home and now I don't have anywhere to go I'm at your door Won't you look out your window? I'm at your door Won't you please let me in?
9.
Step all over me if it makes you feel right Let the wall meet your fist if it helps you sleep at night Lie to yourself 'til you're blue in the face Hold your breath and maybe you'll forget the taste of the sincerity behind your crooked teeth But tell a soul You wouldn't be caught dead You still got my body in a box beneath your bed I've seen the best, I've seen the worst but the difference between them is paper thin Come up with your own truth and make yourself believe Oh the places that you'd go to try and find relief
10.
You're dead, but I don't think i know it yet. Burn me up in back, because i'll take what I can get You're gone, but I don't think I see it yet It's hard to believe when I'm sleeping with your silhouette I can hear you whispering through my radio I feel your eyes burning through me but I can't make out your face Fill the space with people I've never met The one thing that I knew I will forget Whose been keeping me awake at night? Is it the ghost inside my bed? Or the one inside my head? I wrote your name in the fog on the window so I could watch you disappear
11.
Found out the hard way that things would never be the same I waited for salvation, but it never came If you never gave me an answer I would have waited there forever for you I'll be fine if no one's waiting for me at my door The phone keeps ringing, I don't want to pick it up anymore Just leave me be Go the same as you came Don't even bother to remember my name I'm soaked to the bone I'll never know what's true But i guess it's safe to say convenience got the best of you Hide behind those things that you and your friends can't explain You stay caught in the crowd I'll stay caught in the rain You locked yourself away and no one has the key It's your turn to hang your head Take the bottle to your face and your regret to your grave
