"Rain Will Fall"
 
It was just another day
Cars were driving by and people lined the streets
We were walking side by side
But there was something on my mind
And I couldn't bear to walk another step with this inside

The rain will fall and wash it all away
Our fears will call

There's some things you just don't say
But when it's been so long there's just no other way
I can't do this anymore, I can't pretend that I'm not bored
And I don't want to spend the rest of my life out of my control

The rain will fall and wash it all away
Our fears will call and make us run away

This is the last thing left to do
And if there's one things I have learned
You can only lie to yourself for so long
Until it becomes truth

I know I can't be the one left holding the bag
I wish I could not make it hurt so bad

Don't be surprised, I gonna let you run away
Don't turn around, I'm gonna walk the other way
I'm not going to chase you down the street
I won't chase you, I won't chase you

Don't be surprised, I gonna let you run away
Don't turn around, I'm gonna walk the other way
I'm not going to chase you down the street
I won't chase you down the street

The rain will fall and wash it all away
Our fears will call and make us run away

This is the last thing left to do
And if there's one things I have learned
You can only lie to yourself for so long
Until it becomes truth

I know I can't be the one left holding the bag
(The rain will fall and wash it all away)
I wish I could not make it hurt so bad
(Our fears will call and make us run away)

"Falling Down"
 
Cut through the skin with knives of words
I'm still bleeding out questions of nerve
What will it take to sort this out?
It's still lodging it's blade in my heart

Silence hurts more than the worst sound
Now it's too late to call
Say I'm wrong and throw the first round
I'm still falling down

Fill out the paper, File the forms
And I'm signing you up for the war
This is the way we've learned to cope
Insecurities take over hope

Silence hurts more than the worst sound
Now it's too late to call
Say I'm wrong and throw the first round
I'm still falling down

I can see, I can see you and me on the water tonight
Blood red sky lets me know you'll be here by my side
And tomorrow we will wake up, We can start again
We have so much left to learn from all of our mistakes

You can trust me
I won't give up
I won't let you go

Cut through the skin with knives of words

Silence hurts more than the worst sound
Now it's too late to call
Say I'm wrong and throw the first round
I'm still falling down

Silence hurts more than the worst sound
Now it's too late to call
Say I'm wrong and throw the first round
I'm still falling down

"A Great Fire"
 
Burning down
We can't stop it
We gotta get out
Start again
The memories are gone forever

Don't try
To turn this around on me
I'm the one that saved you
This was my home
This was my life
It's not always just about you

And as I heard
The sirens begin to chime
I can feel my heart begin to race

I can see through the flames
That the fire cleanses me
Mind and soul now the same
And my body guides the way

I threw you over my shoulder
With the angel
On my other
I'm not your hero
I'll never be
What you wanted
What you thought I would be

I can see through the flames
That the fire cleanses me
Mind and soul now the same
And my body guides the way

I can see through my tired eyes
My sickness controls me
Deep inside I know trust (I know trust)
Is the mother of deceit
(Is the mother of deceit)

And there you were
Six years old, ashes in your hair
You're not scared
You've seen so much pain in so few years
As the world
Becomes a place where no one wants to stay
We remain
Silent until it's too late

And as I see
The planes take over the sky
I can feel it coming to the end

I can see through the flames
That the fire cleanses me
Mind and soul now the same
And my body guides the way (and you're burning)

I can see through my tired eyes (down my life so slowly)
My sickness controls me (I know in my heart)
Deep inside I know trust (I know trust)
Is the mother of deceit
(Is the mother of, is the mother of deceit)

"Vices"

Featuring Liam Cormier
 
You can't see me behind the door
I just heard everything you said
You call him
You're saying all the things you used to say to me
Who is he
I never thought you'd drop that avalanche on me
And be unfaithful
These hotel walls are paper thin
I'm going out

Seven seven with the lime will keep me safe
Long enough to stop the thought of your embrace inside my head
The lies that I've been fed
Throw it back behind my lips the pain is gone
Line em up and knock em down the night goes on
and on and on to let me cope with this disaster

I'm seven deep
Long brown hair and blue eyes
Looking right at me
Who is she
I never thought I'd ever think of stepping out
I'll fight this temptation
This crowded bar is full of sin
I'm going out

Seven seven with the lime will keep me safe
Long enough to stop the thought of your embrace inside my head
The lies that I've been fed
Throw it back behind my lips the pain is gone
Line em up and knock em down the night goes on
and on and on to let me cope with this disaster

I'm not coming home tonight
I'd rather sleep on the street
I'm not coming home to you
I won't sleep with the devil
[x3]

On this city street I'll rest my head tonight
I'm going out!

Seven seven with the lime will keep me safe
Long enough to stop the thought of your embrace inside my head
The lies that I've been fed
Throw it back behind my lips the pain is gone
Line em up and knock em down the night goes on
and on and on (and on and on) to let me cope with this disaster

"Broken Stars"
 
Shooting daggers at me
Letting it be known you're not impressed
I never fail at failing all your tests
Don't be so proud
'Cause you're still so scared to be alone
And you can't change your mind

You won't embrace this
But you'll accept it
You can't let go

Broken stars
By a single shattered mirror
Seven years of trust
I know you'll never change for anyone
A gold heart never rusts

My mind's made up
And I'll know I'll do the right thing
Get up and stand tall
My mind's made up
Why am I scared I won't be able
To get up when I fall

We cast a single shadow for so long now
It's so hard to see the sun at all (the sun at all)
But you need light to see
the writing on the wall

My mind's made up
And I'll know I'll do the right thing
Get up and stand tall
My mind's made up
Why am I scared I won't be able
To get up when I fall

..Into the hole I've made
I'll place myself alone
I'll find the strength within myself
To climb out on my own, own!

My mind's made up
And I'll know I'll do the right thing
Get up and stand tall
My mind's made up
Why am I scared I won't be able
To get up when I fall

Yeah!!

These broken stars
Can't be put back in the sky
I can still feel the scars!
I won't, I won't let them die!
We won't, we won't fade away!
And now we will set this all ablaze

"American Dream"
 
It was on our wedding day
When my heart began to stray
Never thought I'd make such a big mistake
Throw my life away

I've gone days without food
I've went weeks without sleep
Keeping this in
I've got cuts I can't close
I've got wounds that won't heal
It's all your fault

I've been shattered and wrecked
My hands covered in blood
Scars on my skin
I forgot how to feel
Now I'm weak with deceit
My skin is paper thin

We get through this
Feeling it, keeping it, holdin' it in
We go through this
Over and over again

I'd go years without tears
In a life with no fear
A life without you
Now I'm breaking my back as
I cover my tracks
My skin is paper thin once again

We get through this
Feeling it, keeping it, holdin' it in
We go through this
Over and over again

I've gone days without food
I've went weeks without sleep
Keeping this in
I've got cuts I can't close
I've got wounds that won't heal
It's all your fault

My American dream
Wasn't ever to lie, steal and cheat
He won't leave her for this
What's the point?
I wish they would die

We get through this
Feeling it, keeping it, holdin' it in
We go through this
Over and over again

We get through this
Feeling it, keeping it, holdin' it in
We go through this
Over and over again

"Their Lips Sink Ships"
 
Fly away, leave the bloody past behind your wings
Leave this burning house and break the curse
When you survive another day, another day

Fly away, leave the bloody past behind your wings

"I Knew I Couldn't Trust You"
 
I knew I couldn't trust you back when we were kids.
You sold me out; you ran and hid
from all your problems. Can't even face your friends,
your best friend.

You're holding something in tonight
and I can tell you're not alright.
Your poker face concealing
All the cards that you're not dealing.
Cross your arms, avert your eyes;
you're like a child ashamed to cry.
The words inside your head,
when I find out you'll wish you said:

"I've let you down
so many times but I can't ever tell you this,
there is no forgiving it.
I promised you I'd
always be there but that couldn’t be less true.
It's the worst thing I could do."

You're gonna bet it all on black
and when it's gone you'll want it back.
'Cause truth don't mix with reason
and cheating's the ultimate treason.
And I could see through you like glass,
slither around below the grass
Garden of Eden burning,
forbidden fruit you won't discern it.

I've let you down
so many times but I can't ever tell you this,
there is no forgiving it.
I promised you I'd
always be there but that couldn’t be less true.
It's the worst thing I could do.

My loss, your gain,
it didn't have to be this way.
Across your face,
it's so legible.

Hold in the pain,
were better off this way.
We don't abstain,
we're better off this way.
Friends are in vain;
we're better off this way.
Better off this way.

I knew I couldn't trust you back when we were kids.
You sold me out; you ran and hid
from all your problems. Can't even face your friends,
your best friend.

I've let you down
so many times but I can't ever tell you this,
there is no forgiving it.
I promised you I'd
always be there but that couldn’t be less true.
It's the worst thing I could do.

"Born Dead"

Featuring Scott Wade
 
You call this a privilege
No, I call it a right
There's no respect for life
No compromising
Coverage denied (Coverage denied)

So sit behind your desk and tell me how I'm supposed to feel inside
You know I'm slowly dying, how long I have left is for you to decide

We keep on suffering everyday
We're victims of opportunity
One nation under God, they said
We are all born dead

Dead and rotting bodies fill the
Fields in the east
There's no respect for life, it never stops
Is this what makes us free?

So flex your muscle as you barricade the whole world piece by piece
How long until the ocean overflows into our yards and streets?

We keep on suffering everyday
We're victims of opportunity
One nation under God, they said
We are all pawns, we are all sheep, we are all born dead

We can't escape this
Until we unify as one
I'll fight the sickness
Until my time has come

We keep on suffering everyday
We're victims of opportunity
One nation under God, they said
We are all born dead

We keep on suffering everyday
We're victims of opportunity
One nation under God, they said
We are all pawns, we are all sheep, we are all born dead
