Peer Pressure
03:00
|
|||
You try it once, you let it go
Cause if you don’t, you’ll never know
Don’t believe the things you hear
Just do it now, we’ll disappear
You try it once, you let it go
Cause if you don’t, you’ll never know
Don’t believe the things you hear
Just do it now, we’ll disappear
I could be your loneliness
Meaning I’m that drug you miss
I could be your ever pleasure
So give in to the peer pressure
You try their drugs, you like the taste
That’s a shame; it’s such a waste
You’re all alone, now can’t you see
We’re better off if you’re with me
I could be your loneliness
Meaning I’m that drug you miss
I could be your ever pleasure
So give in to the peer pressure
I could let this moment pass
Before I have the chance
To make your senses free
With just a little hit of me
You try me once, you let me go
Cause if you don’t, you’ll never know
I could be your loneliness
Meaning I’m that drug you miss
I could be your ever pleasure
So give in to the peer pressure
You try me once, you let me go

Too Late
03:14
|

The cup’s half-empty
I spilled it out
To blend in with my tears
That I’m still crying out
The world’s half empty
With people like me
So damn pessimistic
I don’t open my eyes to see
Until
It’s too late and that’s too bad
But we’re too close to feel sad
It’s too late
The cup’s half full
Because the other overflowed
I’m making the best of this
That I’m sure I know
The world’s half full
With people like me
Who stay and make the best
Of this life, simply
But you’re too late and that’s too bad
Cause we’re too close to feel sad
It’s too late
“Make the best of everything”
So you make the best of everything in your head
Make the best of everything until you’re dead
But you’re too late and that’s too bad
Cause we’re too close to feel sad
But you’re too late and that’s too bad
Cause we’re too close to feel sad
It’s too late

Shall I compare you to a summer’s day
I would not do you justice
Shall I speak of the month of may
Where we can stay just us
I could not write you another metaphor
Take what I got, you know I could not give more
Long after I’m dead
They'll be getting the words stuck in their heads
Long after you’re gone
They'll be singing your song you’re beautiful
You’ll be immortalized
(As long as there’s someone to sing)
If I were to say your summer’s never going to fade
Would you believe me
Death can’t take away
Anything that I see
I could not write you another metaphor
Take what I got, you know I could not give more
Long after I’m dead
They'll be getting the words stuck in their heads
Long after you’re gone
They'll be singing your song you’re beautiful
You’ll be immortalized
(As long as there’s someone to sing)
I could not write you another metaphor
Take what I got, you know I could not give more
Long after I’m dead
They'll be getting the words stuck in their heads
Long after you’re gone
They'll be singing your song you’re beautiful
You’ll be immortalized
(As long as there’s someone to sing)

Blow Me Up
02:25
|
|||
Cut the red one, it’ll be alright
Don’t be afraid or you’ll be sitting here all night
Ease the pressure - blow me up
Find the bomb, and set it off
I see you sweating
I’m sweating too
Make your decision
Before the timer makes it for you
Ease the pressure - blow me up
Find the bomb, and set it off
Blow me up
What did we find now
That we’re still here
That the real bombs are inside us
Between both our ears
Ease the pressure - blow me up
Find the bomb, and set it off
Ease the pressure - blow me up
Find the bomb, and set it off
Blow me up

Jealousy
04:17
|
|||
Them… not me
The universal sign of the word lonely
You’re with them
I’m by myself
I just need motivation
To get up off this shelf
Tell me he is better
I’ve got to fill his shoes
Hope he knows there’s no way in hell
He’ll do better than you
Oh how I wish I could be yours
But I’ll never be
I’ll never see
It’s only you and me
Jealousy
It will always be
Only you and me
Jealousy
Them… not me
My way of saying that I’m lonely
You’re just a blind boy
And I’m invisible
There’s no way you could see
That’s why I’m miserable
Tell me that you’re trying
Because I have given up
You could give me your best effort
But anything’s enough
Oh how I wish I could be yours
But I’ll never be
I’ll never see
It’s only you and me
Jealousy
It will always be
Only you and me
Jealousy
Will I tell your secrets
Will I make up lies
To channel this spite
And dry my eyes
Will I sit here lonely
Will I say I tried
Will I say I gave up
And let jealousy
Jealousy
I let jealousy take my side
Oh how I wish I could be yours
But I’ll never be
I’ll never see
It’s only you and me
Jealousy
It will always be
Only you and me
Jealousy

Used to Be
04:22

It made shadows in my room
When the moon strew light
Its branches were arms
But my blanket held me tight
I’d call for mom and dad
When the wind tapped the glass
But now I call and no one hears
Those nights are in my past
It must be fall
Because the leaves on my family tree have fallen down
Or at least apart
What comes with winter?
When the snow falls between the cold trees’ naked arms
And onto mine
Then with spring
The rain comes and there’s nowhere to hide
And with summer there’s no shade in sight
Under a tree that used to be
A family
The house is here, the tree is dead
This house is not a home
Broken like the splitting wood
The leaves are all gone
I can try to beg my way
Out from under this tree
But I cannot control
That which created me
It must be fall
Because the leaves on my family tree have fallen down
Or at least apart
What comes with winter?
When the snow falls between the cold trees’ naked arms
And onto mine
Then with spring
The rain comes and there’s nowhere to hide
And with summer there’s no shade in sight
Under a tree that used to be
A family
Why grow me up only to cut me down?
What am I good for now?
Watch me burn
Why grow me up only to cut me down?
What am I good for now?
Watch me burn
It must be fall
Because the leaves on my family tree have fallen down
Or at least apart
What comes with winter?
When the snow falls between the cold trees’ naked arms
And onto mine
Then with spring
The rain comes and there’s nowhere to hide
And with summer there’s no shade in sight
Under a tree that used to be
A family
Why grow me up only to cut me down?
What am I good for now?
Watch me burn

Have I Lost Myself
01:21
|
|||
Have I lost myself?
I can’t make sense of these words, notes, or voices
I’m finding it harder for me to make choices
Or am I just digesting?
Taking it all in
I can’t make the words come back out again
Have I lost myself?
I can’t tell me apart from the millions of faces
It wouldn’t quite matter if we just changed places
You could sing at me loudly
And I could listen quietly
Have I lost myself?
Have I lost myself?
I have lost myself

It crept in. It crept out
It got cold, freezing now
I stepped in and closed the window
You can’t say you wouldn’t do the same
It moved in, it moved out
It got warm, burning now
I stepped in and closed the window
You can’t say you wouldn’t do the same
I closed the window, I closed the door
I kept my mouth shut
You wanted more
I closed the window, I closed the door
I kept my mouth shut
You wanted more
You moved in, you moved out
Called your name, screaming now
You came out to close the window
At last we’ve done
You moved in, you moved out
Called your name, screaming now
You came out to close the window
At last we’ve done… the same

Unfaithful
02:45
|
|||
I don’t want to be a creep
But I’ve been watching you
I don’t want to be sweet
But I want to tell you you’re pretty
And I don’t want to be your boyfriend
But I’d take you on a date
I don’t want to be your best friend
I just hope we can relate
Cause I am a taken man
I don’t even know you
I’m not sure if I want to
There are just a few things that I need to get out
One is I would never be unfaithful
(So I need to get you off my mind)
Two is I would never be unfaithful
If you were mine
I don’t want to be mean
But I won’t make conversation
I don’t want to be rude
But I’d like to speak first
I don’t want to be jealous
But I can’t help but look
I don’t want to laugh
Cause I know he’s not worth it
But he is not a taken man
I don’t even know you
I’m not sure if I want to
There are just a few things that I need to get out
One is I would never be unfaithful
(So I need to get you off my mind)
Two is I would never be unfaithful
If you were mine
There are a lot of things that I want to be
And a lot of things I don’t
You are someone who I’d like to meet
But for her sake I won’t
I don’t even know you
I’m not sure if I want to
There are just a few things that I need to get out
One is I would never be unfaithful
(So I need to get you off my mind)
Two is I would never be unfaithful
If you
If you
If you were mine

Don’t regret time because it will regret you
Don’t forget this life or it will forget you
Slow it down, look around
For the ground
Something that you’d like to find
You live your life up in the air
With, in front of your eyes
The wind’s blowing your hair
And when you fight it back you realize
Your hair’s not the only thing that’s been blown around
Get back to your couch or chair
Head on the tv, listen to the music blare
What have you missed?
Sit back and stare
Turn it on, press play
We’re watching it today
Your life flashing by in your mind
You’ve lost control
Now life controls just fine
But is it such a crime
To rewind time
Have you looked long enough?
Realized what you missed?
While you were out kissing tears that shouldn’t have been kissed
Is play not enough to replay your life?
Maybe it’s time we fast forward tonight
Flashing and dancing thoughts through your head
Won’t make you crazy
They’ll make your thoughts nice and hazy
So it’ll be easy to concentrate
Yeah right
Turn it on, press play
We’re watching it today
Your life flashing by in your mind
You’ve lost control
Now life controls just fine
But is it such a crime
To rewind time
Now your time is gone
And so are we
No button in your life
Is going to bring back you and me
Now your time is gone
And so are we
No button in your life
Is going to bring back you and me
Turn it on, press play
We’re watching it today
Your life flashing by in your mind
You’ve lost control
Now life controls just fine
But is it such a crime
To rewind time
To rewind time
To rewind time

My girl she was the most beautiful thing
I wooed her with the way I could play and sing
But I wasn’t the only one
So she went on the run
Bitten by a snake she was taken to one
At the gates of hell she was met none
Other than the devil himself and his wife
So I went down to reclaim her life
Eurydice
I’d follow you to hell and back again
Curse my eyes, my lack of faith and tries
I’d follow you to hell and back again
Curse my eyes, curse my eyes
Hell and back again
Hell and back again
So I spoke to the devil, he said “lets make a deal
You love your wife, isn’t that how you feel?”
Walk a million steps is what I have to do
Without even a look or glance back at you
So I keep going
And I keep climbing
I’d follow you to hell and back again
Curse my eyes, my lack of faith and tries
I’d follow you to hell and back again
Curse my eyes, curse my eyes
Hell and back again
Hell and back again
She will call
Curse my name
I’d follow you to hell and back again
Curse my eyes, my lack of faith and tries
I’d follow you to hell and back again
Curse my eyes, curse my eyes
Hell and back again
Hell and back again
Hell and back again (Hell and back again)
Hell and back again (Hell and back again)
Hell and back again (Hell and back again)
Hell and back again (Hell and back again)

Forever Never
03:30
|
|||
Kick me out, I’m begging you
So you can take me back in
Leave me high and dry
So I can crawl back again
In and out
Up and Down
What are we trying for?
This could be forever
Or it could be for never
I could make you love me
Or we can keep on hating, friend
But you, you excite me
Let’s quit this damn fighting
Or you’ll keep on wanting more
I’ll be forever, never yours
Tell me how much you care for me
Just so you can take it back
“Such a friend you are to me”
“Such a friend” Why’d I ask
In and out
Up and Down
What are we trying for?
This could be forever
Or it could be for never
I could make you love me
Or we can keep on hating, friend
But you, you excite me
Let’s quit this damn fighting
Or you’ll keep on wanting more
I’ll be forever, never yours
Why do I let you drive
Back and forth on these train tracks
That I made and tied myself to
In and out
Up and Down
What am I dying for?
This could be forever
Or it could be for never
I could make you love me
Or we can keep on hating, friend
But you, you excite me
Let’s quit this damn fighting
Or you’ll keep on wanting more
I’ll be forever, never yours
