Say Goodbye
Your mind wasn't made for reading
Your lips haven't made a sound
Your angel's battered bruised and bleeding
I'm not the one her knocked her down
Come on now
I'm shutting down it's not the first time
or the last we'l say goodbye
You've got me hung no judge or jury
I'm not laying down to die
Come on now
Pull the wool down over my eyes
PUll the wool down over my eyes
Say you love me one more time
Say you love me say goodbye
You said you've got your reasons
you know I've got mine
I've shown you all my private demons
That ain't no excuse to cry
Pull the wool down over my eyes
Pull the wool down over my eyes
Say you love me one more time
Say you love me say goodbye
Fall Away
I hate the rain
I hate the grey
Left foot, right foot, wrong foot
Keep it sane
I battle my mind
most every day
think it, speak it, feel it
don't want to feel the pain
I don't wanna fall away today
Won't you step inside
Cause it's been awhile
Spend so much time living
Never stop to feel alive
And I know it's me
That you like to hide
Don't know where to find it
Don't know if I can force a smile
I don't wanna fall away today
All this time
While the blue turns into grey
Everyday it's all the same
All this time
I been searching for the new
as the now just slips away
everyday it's all the same
Carousel Junkie
You fall into me
Graceful as a trainwreck
You're stealing all my steam
I cannot quit you
Like a Carousel Junkie
I gotta go around again
And when you leave me
I'm down on my knees
And when you keep me
I'm begging baby please
I'm a Carousel Junkie
One trick pony
The tilt-a-whirl thrills me
you just throw me
Round and around
Babe I wish I was seventeen
You could school girl crush me
And not be my disease
Because when I had my innocence
I could ask all the other girls
Can I have this dance?
I'm a Carousel Junkie
One trick pony
The Tilt-a-Whirl thrills me
You just throw me
Round and around
If I say you're all I need
Then will you please let me be
Your carousel keeps turning
Round and round
Let Me Breathe
When there's nothing wrong there's nothing to say
I wanted the best to come your way
I never thought I could believe
I would need someone to rescue me
Wake me up
Because I'm coming down and I feel a bit emotional
Climb the walls surrounding me
I feel like I'm dying from the cure
Crying for words but no ones heard
Time hasn't healed these wounds so far
Got nothing to show but all these scars
Wake me up
Because I"m coming down and I feel a bit emotional
Climb the walls surrounding me
Take me up
I like to think I can swallow my emotions and
climb the walls surrounding me
Come on and let me breathe
When nothing is wrong there's nothing to say
I still want the best to come your way
I need you to rescue me
You're like I need to breathe
Wake me up
Because I"m coming down and I feel a bit emotional
Climb the walls surrounding me
Take me up
I like to think I can swallow my emotions and
climb the walls surrounding me
Wake me up
Because I'm coming down and I feel a bit emotional
Climb the walls surrounding me
Take me up
I like to think I can follow my emotions and
Climb the walls surrounding me
Come on and let me breathe
Down
She don't come around anymore like she used to
She still comes around
I can't hold her like I used to
I just hold her down
It's thoughts like these that keep me longing for the night
Where I can hide my eyes
Lately I can't look anyone directly in the eye
Today my head is hanging on regrets I can't deny
For all the good intentions do me
I might as well not try, I might as well be blind
I can't love alone
Like I can't breathe on my own
Because you're the air and you're gone
I'm tired of tletting pain the only emotion that gets through
You can't get to me and I can't get to you
Drag my heels a bit it backfires
I end up alone
Another Sunday morning crying feel so low, so low
I can't love alone
Like I can't breathe on my own
Because you're the air and you're gone
Gone, I feel the air
Gone, I feel your weight
Gone, I feel nowhere
Because you're the air and you're gone.
I can't love alone
Like I can't breathe on my own
Because you're the air and you're gone
She don't come around anymore like she used to
But she still comes around
Get In Your Way
One Mistake leads to another
I should’ve listened to my other half
No I’m haeavy buried in this history
Life’s not a playground, no do-overs
She lives and breathes and I’m still lost
Somewhere in America
She’s bleeding & I’m feeling alone
So I say
Can I get in your way?
Help you run out of time
Can I get in your way?
All it takes is one foot then the other
Never should’ve let her push a little more
Another season add it to my history
Gone forever, this time won’t come back around
I’ve lived and loved and still I’m lost
Mind’s been fighting heart again
Now she’s feeling & I’m bleeding alone
And I say
Can I get in your way?
Help you run out of time
Can I get in your way
All I want is everything
All I need is everything
All I am is anything
Can I get in your way?
And I say
Can I get in your way?
Help you run out of time
Can I get in your way
Make the ending sublime
All I want is everything
All I need is everything
All I am is anything
Can I get in your way?
Maria
She goes down to Mardi Gras
singing where has money gone?
Flowers and beads are hanging in her hair
now shes dancing like shes queen of the fair
Old mississippi leads to Ponchatrain
Marching in time and washing fears away
She sets 'em up and they knock her down
it's so hard to drink hometown blues
she's stuck inside her shoes
Dear Maria walk away, You're own your own
Dear Maria It's OK everybody gets thrown
Well all your memories and all your yestredays will be there when youget home don't walk away run
after hours all night escapades
midwestern girls never get away
her one horse town keeps staking claim
still she's OK with rain on her parade.
She thinks shes got it made
Dear Maria Walk Away You're own your own
Dear Maria It's OK everybody gets thrown
Well all your memories and all your yestredays will be there when you get home don't walk away run
Daddy always counts the money
Momma's crying all alone
Everytime you think it's funny
that they left you all alone
but you're own your own
Dear Maria Walk Away You're own your own
Dear Maria It's OK everybody gets thrown
Well all your memories and all your yestredays will be there when you get home don't walk away run
Lonely Alone
And you would look at me and smile the way you always do
And you would tell me that these things have ways of coming through
And you alone can look in my eyes and stare me cold
You’re misquided love could make me forget the way home
And you would look at me and spin a beautiful lie
And still it weighs me down, weigh me down, way down.
And you would tell me that you’d shelter me from all the rain
You would keep me away from all the pain you’ve been through
So why am I soaking from rain
If I feel anything It’s pain
Now I’m lonely I’m not alone
I’m stil here but it’s not home
Now I’m lonely I’m not alone
I’m still here but I’m far gone
And you would tell me that my faith has never been renewed
You would think that all in all I had come unglued
And you would say aloug the things that I should for sure
And you would take a vow that says that I should know better
Still I stand shaken to the core
I’d leave if I could find the door
Now I’m lonely I’m not alone
I’m stil here but it’s not home
Now I’m lonely I’m not alone
I’m still here but I’m far gone
So why am I soaking from the rain?
Now I’m lonely I’m not alone
I’m stil here but it’s not home
Now I’m lonely I’m not alone
I’m still here but I’m far gone
Now I’m lonely I’m not alone
I’m stil here but it’s not home
Now I’m lonely I’m not alone
I’m still here but I’m far gone
Rely
You said everybodys changing
I don't think someones tried to rearrange the best of you
you say the pictures that you're framing all fade to grey and you
you're already gone
you say that everybodys talking
maybe you should think twice
maybe keep on walking
I'll be there
you say the shadows that you're crossing are closing in and you
you're already gone
you're already gone
You wanna rely on somebody else
give it a try
you wanna get by with somebody else
so kiss me goodbye
you said everyone keeps crushing your killer scene
someone better change the lights back from red to green
you said all the walls you're building
crumble to the ground
you're already gone
you're already gone
You wanna rely on somebody else
give it a try
you wanna get by with somebody else
so kiss me goodbye
Pure
Did you lose the thing you thought was pure
And the only thing you know for sure is fallen
your fallen
Now you're telling me I told you lies
Always ready with an alibi you know
you're fallen
Everything I worry about
is Everthing I can live without
I'll live without you now
My baby loves to live a tragedy
I'd ease her pain but it's not up to me you know
you're fallen
Did you lose the thing you thought was sure
and the only you know is fallen
you're fallen
Everything I worry about
is Everthing I can live without
I'll live without you now
Lines
Tonight the lines don’t connect between power plant and tv set
This time kid the drama is up to us
the darkness brings an honesty
that just might heal the lines between
Broken you and this version of me
Lighting throws a shadow here
And thunder clapping feeds our fear
That’s just what we need
When the lines don’t connect
The lines don’t connect
The lines
Don’t connect the lines
We’ve both got on our kid gloves
Gentle words spill from our tongues
Listen I’ll create the perfect line
The candlelight’s still flickering
But our resolve is withering
Now neither knows what all this means
But one things sure five won’t wipe clean
See you soon when we’ll compare our scars
tonight the lines don’t connect
between power plant and tv set
this time kid the drama is up to us
the candlelight is still flickering but our resolve is withering
will you let me go but keep my hold
