Pretend

Lets pretend
That you don’t wake up at night
That you’ve never had a fight
That you’re laughing
That you’re happy

What's Left?
02:05
|
|||
|
No one knows what’s left of me
All the things I couldn’t see
Left here waiting, now I cant breathe

Given Up
02:16
|
|||
|
I've given up on breathing, it’s just a waste of time
I’m sick of thinking up other lines that rhyme

Broken Dreams
02:26
|
|||
|
No one touches anything, no one’s fit to leave
I’ll give you what you came to see, if you don’t mind broken things, and broken dreams

Lobotomy

Just when you thought the lobotomy was working

You Don't Know
03:09
|

You don’t know how it got this way
Stand up take a look around you
Shut up and hear the words
You don’t know

Faceless
02:03
|
|||
|
No one can see into my eyes
No one hears my voice
You’ve told all your lies
And I’ve no other choice
Now I’m faceless

Break My Silence
02:25
|
|||
|
Do you think I don’t know what the fuck your doing?
Do you think I don’t know whom else you’re out there fucking?
Why do you try to get me to break my silence?
Why do you try to get me to resort to violence?
Why do you try to get me to be open to change?
Why do you try to get me to show constraint?
Why do you try to get me to never be around?
I’ve got a right to see my friends as well
I’ve got a right to see if you go to hell
I’ve got to break free from this fear that grips
I’ve got to break from free from the drug between your hips

Just One
02:12
|
|||
|
One day side by side with you
One day left to get through
One time to try to give
One time I thought I wanted to live
Nothing compares to the thought
Nothing has ever worked from the start
Nothing seems to take hold anymore
Nothing seems to know what it’s meant for
One more time fail before I start
One more time sinking at the bar
One day thinking I could do more
One day needing something to live for
Nothing left to try to complete, nothing to see in the city streets
Nothing more to get accomplished, nothing to see before I leave
Nothing more to try, nothing more to see
Nothing more to do, nothing more to get
Just one day too late

Wanting More
03:25
|
|||
|
I used to think you really cared
I used to see things that were never there
My mind plays tricks on what I see
Visions come back until I believe
I remember wanting more (I remember wanting more)
But you just turned away
The taste of tears is my only crime
All you ever gave to me was a wink and line
I used to believe in you, I used to believe in me
But you took that all away. You took that all away.
I used to try not to be afraid
You filled my life with your regrets
You try to take only the best
Your ignorance shows you never cared
But somehow I saw things that were never there

Blame Yourself
02:14
|
|||
|
Drag me through your lies again
Why don’t you understand?
You’re your own enemy, clapping with one hand
You look to me ask for help, calling me a friend
You try to use me once again, find another helping hand
Why don’t you blame yourself for the problems that you have
Don’t you realize you’re the cause?
Now you’re coming after me with accusations and demands
You try so hard to shift the blame but deep inside you can’t
Why can’t you see the truth and try to understand
You can only blame yourself for the problems you now have

Release You
02:38
|
|||
|
Have to hold you tight chain you to the floor
Have to scream and fight ‘til you can’t take it anymore
Want to be around to hear you scream my name
Want to gag and bound as your life flows down the drain
Need to rearrange the flowers for your room
Need to disengage to the light shine through
Have to be afraid what if you don’t care for me
Have to let me invade to see if I can make you bleed
Want to isolate you keep you locked away
Want to rip through you the way to make you stay
Need to make you commit stay by your own will
Need to make you admit to each and every thrill
Have to hold you tight so you don’t catch cold
Have to take you right to watch you unfold
Want to hold you tight so you cant get free
Want to feel you bite the hand that feeds
Need to hold you tight just for security
Need to keep you in sight so you can never leave
Always feels like it’s a sin
The feeling comes and goes away every time I tried to release you
