99 with an anchor

I can see the pressures on you,
It's affecting everything you do.
You want out, you want out.

Did you know it tears me in two?
You obsess on everything you lose.
You want out, you want out.

And I'll keep you waiting,
Where this life is so unfair.
You want out, you want out.

Wrap my fingers around your neck,
Till the shadows are dancing around you now,
Fingers only to drag you down.
Wait for someone to pull you above the rest.

Take this pain from me (I want you walking away, right now, right now)
Take this pain from me (And take this pain, And take this pain from me)
Take this pain from me (Chasing after, weakened and suffering)
Take this pain from me (Leave and free me now)

I'll be to far away from you,
To honor anything, anything you want.

Everytime I think of you, (Eyes are open)
Eyes are open now. (All the things we've had are through)
Eyes are open, eyes are open.

Take this pain from me (I want you walking away, right now, right now)
Take this pain from me (And take this pain, And take this pain from me)
Take this pain from me (Chasing after, weakened and suffering)
Take this pain from me (Leave and free me now)

We all have, we all have someone.
You wanted, you wanted more.

Leave me now...

Every day you cried out my name
You said to me that you can’t leave now
(Walk away from me now.
Everything that comes to mind
Will help you find it the last time I see you.
(Walk away from me now.)

Everything you want is over now.

A street car named desire

Time and time and time again
My loneliness is my only friend.
I just keep on sitting by the phone
Waiting for it to ring your tone.
I just, want to, know that, you care
I just, want to, know that you’ll be there.

So I sing this song to you.
Sorry I wasn’t, what you were looking for.
But you just don’t get it at all.
Life is always better, after the fall.

Pieces are raining down on me.
Wont wait, I can’t believe in this or anything at all.
After all you did, why would I care? Why should I care?
After, the pain you caused, why would I care? Why should I care?
I've waited for this so long, why would I care? Why should I care?

Loneliness, sadness, and solitude
These are a few of the things I’ve been through
Waiting for anything, everyday
Strange that you don’t seem to feel the same way
Write me off, bury me and leave me for dead
Open wide, eat your words and choke on regrets

After all you did, why would I care? Why should I care?
After, the pain you caused, why would I care? Why should I care?
I've waited for this so long, why would I care? Why should I care?

Look through me (Tragedy’s not so bad)
Remember what was left (Taking me down and more)
Take all I give to you
After what I’ve been through
Go ahead take it all (I honestly don’t care at all)
Set up and ready to fall (Let it fall)

Bitter party of one


Hide, hide from your life,
Bury yourself in the drugs that you try.
Cry, cry out your eyes no ones gonna buy your lies not this time

We were friends but now were enemies
There's a thousand different reasons that you wouldn't believe
I know you haven't got a thing,
Every day it brings you to your knees.
You're looking back to all the things that you had,
Your all alone it leaves you bitter and sad.
We see you as you are, weak and lonely now you'll play the part.

We don't even need you anymore.
This is it this is really goodbye,
Cause you burnt all the bridges and severed the ties.
We wont hear you when your cry.
Your already dead inside.
You lost your lovers abandoned your friends,
Enjoy the taste of your pills this is really the end.
So take your medicine, we don't want to see your face again.

Reflecting back to all the places you've been,
How would it feel to never see um again?You've done this to yourself.
Just move on and ruin something else.
I point a finger, you point all ten back.
You took the credit there I said it's a matter of fact.
If you were all the talent well then where are you at?
I hope your somewhere in the gutter lying flat on your back.

We don't even need you anymore.
This is it this is really goodbye,
Cause you burnt all the bridges and severed the ties.
We wont hear you when your cry.
Your already dead inside.
You lost your lovers abandoned your friends,
Enjoy the taste of your pills this is really the end.
So take your medicine, we don't want to see your face again.

Never gonna get,
Never gonna get,
You should know you're never gonna get,
Never gonna get
Any better, better, never, any better, better,
Better then you are.

[X2]

We don't even need you anymore.
This is it this is really goodbye,
Cause you burnt all the bridges and severed the ties.
We wont hear you when your cry.
Your already dead inside.
You lost your lovers abandoned your friends,
Enjoy the taste of your pills this is really the end.
So take your medicine, we don't want to see your face again.

Dead man's party

All dressed up with nowhere to go
Walking with a dead man over my shoulder
All dressed up with nowhere to go
Walking with a dead man over my shoulder

Waiting for an invitation to arrive
Going to a party where no one's still alive
All dressed up with nowhere to go
(Walking with a dead man over my shoulder)

I was struck by lighting
Walking down the street
I was hit by something last night in my sleep
It's a dead man's party
Who could ask for more
Everybody's coming, leave your body at the door
Leave your body and soul at the door

Don't run away it's only me
Don't be afraid of what you can't see

Got my best suit and my tie
Shiny silver dollar on either eye
I hear the chauffeur coming to the door
Says there's room for maybe just one more

I was struck by lighting
Walking down the street
I was hit by something last night in my sleep
It's a dead man's party
Who could ask for more
Everybody's coming, leave your body at the door
Leave your body and soul at the door

Don't run away it's only me
Don't be afraid of what you can't see

I was struck by lighting
Walking down the street
I was hit by something last night in my sleep
It's a dead man's party
Who could ask for more
Everybody's coming, leave your body at the door
I was struck by lighting
Walking down the street
I was hit by something last night in my sleep
It's a dead man's party
Who could ask for more
Everybody's coming, leave your body at the door

February

My home, shrinking in the distance
(Every time I leave it's not the time to cry)
I'm leaving but I'll return
(did you think before we got it?)
Every time you breathe, I hope you think of me
Those are the words you told me, told me

don't question why I had to leave
(I think it's time to leave)
One reason, only for a dream
(I think of what I'll see)
This moment feels like destiny
(I want to tell you why)
Won't you tell me, tell me

You want me to always remember
I promise "I always will"
You'll watch and you'll wait for my return
I promise I'm coming home

For all the lonely nights when you're not feeling alive
Look towards the midnight sky and wait for sunrise
This is the life we live, the only one that we know
it seems to never end, never end

You want me to always remember
I promise "I always will"
You'll watch and you'll wait for my return
I promise I'm coming home

You know that I can't resist this
(It's not the time to grieve.
It's not the last goodbye.)
I'm destined for roads unknown
(did you think before we got it).
"Every time you breathe, I hope you think of me"
Those are the words ya told me, told me.

So when will it end?
When will it end?
When will it end?
When will it end?

(Sometimes I don't know where I am-where I'll be.
Feels like I'm so far-far away-far away from home.)

It's hard to move you

Let's just assume that you're always right,
But you still want to put up a fight.
Turn your back and walk away,
Cause there's nothing left for me to say.
And all and all you're barely getting by.
You're never satisfied.
Open your ears and shut your eyes (shut your eyes).

It's hard to move you when you're dead inside.
There's nothingness in your eyes.
I can't impress you when you're not alive.
Why do we even try?

All and all you never use your mind.
And you're following the blind.
Open your eyes and see the light (open and see the light).

It's hard to move you when you're dead inside.
There's nothingness in your eyes.
I can't impress you when you're not alive.
Why do we even try?

I've always known it's hard to move the ones that don't believe in dreams.
I try my hardest just to reach you but you still don't feel a thing.
And all of the empathy inside this world, you know it's killing me.
I've always known it's hard to move the ones that don't believe in dreams.
You don't believe in anything.

You don't feel a thing at all.
(It's hard to move you.)
You don't feel a thing at all.
(It's hard to move you.)

I've always known it's hard to move the ones that don't believe in dreams.
I try my hardest just to reach you but you still don't feel a thing.
And all of the empathy inside this world, you know it's killing me.
I've always known it's hard to move the ones that don't believe in dreams.
I've always known it's hard to move the ones that don't believe in dreams.
I try my hardest just to reach you but you still don't feel a thing.
And all of the empathy inside this world, you know it's killing me.
I've always known it's hard to move the ones that don't believe in dreams.

June 11th, 1980

It's been such a long time since I've seen your face,
And maybe I ignore the sound of your voice.
It's leaving me empty you try to forget me.
These days and chances are looking slim.
I tell "You look nice." you say I'm looking thin.
I say "I haven't been eating or really been sleeping.
Just breathing and thinking of you."

I'm coming clean tonight.
I'm going to tell you everything I've been holding inside.
But I'm only wasting time.
I don't want to let you go.

I see you in his arms I'm faking a smile.
I watch as you finish the drink in your hand.
Pretend to be happy until you look at me.
Now we remember again.
Right now you know I could use a drink
Or even better yet maybe two or three.
Because I've never been over the pain,
And it helps me forget and go on once again.

I'm coming clean tonight.
I'm going to tell you everything I've been keeping inside.
But I'm only wasting time.
I don't want to let you go.

Now I'm sleeping I can breathe.
This is now a dream.
Under the moonlight and in your arms,
Always forever 'till everything's just fine.
Under this street light and in your eyes,
Always forever 'till everything's just fine.

I'm coming clean tonight.
I'm going to tell you everything I've been keeping inside.
But I'm only wasting time.
I don't want to let you go.
That I outta let you know.

Next of kin

Forgive

Remember the things I promised you
Forgotten to love you, you know its true
I tumble then fall for you
The truth now lies in angry eyes
This time I'll pay the price
Pay the price to rise

This feelings got to go
This pain just takes it's toll
If you need me, let me know
I'm here for you
This feelings got to go
This pain just takes it's toll
If you need me, let me know
I'm here for you

All my life I learned from you
The lessons I've learned are never through
I'm sorry my father
Your heart, my hand
Not breaking it again
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
This will be the end

Do you ever think of me? (You follow it underneath your skin)
Where do we go to find what's within?
Just let it go, always within
(What lies)
Always in you
It falls apart
In caves inward
I'm the only one who floats below the rest
Of the angels, of the angels, of the angels

This feelings got to go
This pain just takes it's toll
If you need me, let me know
I'm here for you
This feelings got to go
This pain just takes it's toll
If you need me, let me know
I'm here for you

No more you

I can tell by your last five phone calls,
That you're going to raise hell with me tonight.
Same old stupid conversation,
Another perfect evening ruined by a jealous fight.
I never want to hear your voice because to me it's only noise.
I hope you stay away.

I can tell by the voice mails I've received,
Something's going on you're trying to blame it all on me.
I know we're sleeping up in your bed,
I tore her pictures down and burned the shit to cut our sweat.
I never want to hear your voice because to me it's only noise.
I hope you stay away.

When the radio plays this song,
I hope you can't help but sing along.
When the radio plays this song,
I hope you can't help but sing along.

You should know that the love you've wasted,
It isn't coming back you'll never find a love like me.
You'll never get me out of your head.
I wrote this song for you and named it so you can't forget.
I never want to hear your voice because to me it's only noise.
I hope you stay away.

When the radio plays this song,
I hope you can't help but sing along.
When the radio plays this song,
I hope you can't help but sing along.

Now we say goodbye.
Now we say goodbye.
But you never showed it, you never showed it.
No intention, you never noticed,
How you really made me feel inside.
Now it isn't worth remembering.
I think it's time to forget.

When the radio plays this song,
I hope you can't help but sing along.
When the radio plays this song,
I hope you can't help but sing along.

Object of no desire

Let the music get into you,
Feel the rhythm as it starts to fill you.
Do you want to? do you want to burn up?
Press your hips against mine.
We're making sparks and they're bound to ignite flames,
To keep us warm forever.
Don't stop, cause it's now or never.
We fight the feeling, but we just surrender,
To the things we fear the most in life.
Close your eyes and fall in love again.
Hold your breath and fall in love again.

Spinning around, we're going down but up in flames tonight,
My bleeding heart can't put this out.
And I didn't want to fall apart again,
Sweetheart before you lose me, tell me you love me truly.

I've always known that it's hard to move you,
I'd give my life for the words to soothe you.
Still they end up trapped behind my lips.
Oh baby, how you leave me tongue tied.
You've got me wishing I could stay the whole night,
I'm afraid to fall in love with you.

Spinning around, we're going down but up in flames tonight,
My bleeding heart can't put this out.
And I didn't want to fall apart again,
Sweetheart before you lose me, tell me you love me truly.

We all need a reason to just let go.
We wait for a moment that might not show.
Always looking ahead instead of looking around.
Always looking for something that's already found.
Sweetheart before you lose me, tell me you love me truly.

Spinning around, we're going down but up in flames tonight,
My bleeding heart can't put this out.
And I didn't want to fall apart again,
Set me up to break my heart again.

I didn't wanna fall, didn't wanna fall.
I didn't wanna fall in love again.
I didn't wanna fall, didn't wanna fall.
I didn't wanna fall in love again.

Sweetheart before you lose me, tell me you love me truly.
Sweetheart before you lose me, tell me you love me truly.
