Price To Play
Fail to see
How destructive we can be
Taking without giving back
'Till the damage can be seen
Can you see?
Can you see?
The more you take
The more you blame
(But) My everything still feels the same
The more you hurt
The more you strain
The price you pay to play the game
And all you see
And all you gain
And all you step on with no shame
There are no rules
No one to blame
The price to play the game
Apathy, the chosen way to be
Blindly look the other way
While you waste away with me
Can you see?
Can you see?
The more you take
The more you blame
(But) My everything still feels the same
The more you hurt
The more you strain
The price you pay to play the game
And all you see
And all you gain
And all you step on with no shame
There are no rules
No one to blame
The price to play the game
What you pay to play the game?
What you pay to play the game?
What you pay to play the game?
What you pay to play the game?
The more you take
The more you blame
(But) My everything still feels the same
The more you hurt
The more you strain
The price you pay to play the game
And all you see
And all you gain
And all you step on with no shame
There are no rules
No one to blame
The price to play the game
What you pay to play the game?
What you pay to play the game?
What you pay to play the game?
What you pay to play the game?
How About You
If someone else showed you the way
Would you take the wheel and steer?
It hurts me that you're not ashamed
Of what you're doing here
If they jumped off a bridge
Would you meet them on the ground?
Or would you try to claim
That it never made a sound?
Everyone plays the hand they're dealt
And learns to walk through life themselves
Not everything in life is handed on a plate
When people think your words are true
It doesn't matter what you do
I sold my soul to get here
How 'bout you?
So you choose to force your hand
What a strange way to make friends
And you always change the rules
So the drama never ends
And you blindly do through life
Judging only by its worth
Just try to forget
That the meek inherit earth
Everyone plays the hand they're dealt
And learns to walk through life themselves
Not everything in life is handed on a plate
When people think your words are true
It doesn't matter what you do
I sold my soul to get here
How 'bout you?
So please donТt take offense
this is just a point of view
СCausw IТm the only one who
Will say these things to you
Everyone plays the hand they're dealt
And learns to walk through life themselves
Not everything in life is handed on a plate
When people think your words are true
It doesn't matter what you do
I sold my soul to get here
How 'bout you?
So Far Away
This is my life
It's not what it was before
All these feelings I've shared
And these are my dreams
That I'd never lived before
Somebody shake me 'cause I
I must be sleeping
Now that we're here, it's so far away
All the struggle we thought was in vain
And all the mistakes, one life contained
They all finally start to go away
And now that we're here, it's so far away
And I feel like I can face the day
I can forgive
And I'm not ashamed to be
The Person that I am today
These are my words
That I've never said before
I think I'm doing okay
And this is the smile
That IТve never shown before
Somebody shake me Сcause I
I must be sleeping
Now that we're here, it's so far away
All the struggle we thought was in vain
And all the mistakes, one life contained
They all finally start to go away
And now that we're here, it's so far away
And I feel like I can face the day
I can forgive
And I'm not ashamed to be
The Person that I am today
IТm so afraid of waking
Please donТt shake me
Afraid of walking
Please donТt shake me
Now that we're here, it's so far away
All the struggle we thought was in vain
And all the mistakes, one life contained
They all finally start to go away
And now that we're here, it's so far away
And I feel like I can face the day
I can forgive
And I'm not ashamed to be
The Person that I am today
Yesterday
You don't know what you've put me through
It's okay, I've forgiven you
But in some way, hope it fucks with you
Hope it fucks with you
That I'm okay and I've made it through
But who's to say
What you're going through
I'll say no names
Though I've wanted to
Isn't it strange how it seems like
Yesterday, a boy and already afraid
Locked deep inside, my place to hide
To hide from how you made me feel
And I wonder how's your brother
Did he end up fucked up like me?
Lost in himself, crying for help
It's safe to say
I learned to live without a pride
Just a shell, with me stuck inside
A person not a place to hide
Not a place to hide
That I'm okay and I've made it through
But who's to say
What you're going through
I'll say no names
Though I've wanted to
Isn't it strange how it seems like
Yesterday, a boy and already afraid
Locked deep inside, my place to hide
To hide from how you made me feel
And I wonder how's your brother
Did he finally pull through like me?
Finding himself, not needing help IТd like to say
Fray
I know that it never goes away
All I feel, Everything I'm not today
So I try and I try
To make everything right
I don't feel like I'm doing it, it affects me
You wouldn't listen even if I told you
Who the fuck am I to say?
You're too busy with the lies they sold you
Another cure to fix the day
Open wide for all the shit they feed you
While the TV defecates
And Blindly walk wherever they will lead you
While the edges slowly fray
I know that everything can change
What I need is to open up again
So never again will I look back in vain
ТCause todayТs not the past, I odnТt need to relive it
You wouldn't listen even if I told you
Who the fuck am I to say?
You're too busy with the lies they sold you
Another cure to fix the day
Open wide for all the shit they feed you
While the TV defecates
And Blindly walk wherever they will lead you
While the edges slowly fray
Are you satisfied?
IТve given all I can
And are you pacified
Or do you wnt more from me?
You wouldn't listen even if I told you
Who the fuck am I to say?
You're too busy with the lies they sold you
Another cure to fix the day
Open wide for all the shit they feed you
While the TV defecates
And Blindly walk wherever they will lead you
While the edges slowly fray
IТve learned that this lifeТs not just a game
Just a line between the pleasures and the pain
You wouldn't listen even if I told you
Who the fuck am I to say?
You're too busy with the lies they sold you
Another cure to fix the day
Open wide for all the shit they feed you
While the TV defecates
And Blindly walk wherever they will lead you
While the edges slowly fray
Zoe Jane
Well I want you to notice
To notice when I'm not around
I know that your eyes see straight through me
And speak to me without a sound
And I want to hold you
Protect you from all of the things
I've already endured
And I want to show you
To show you all of the things
That this life has in store for you
I'll always love you
The way that a father should love his daughter
When I walked out this morning
I cried as I walked to the door
I cried about how long IТd be away for
I cried about leaving you all alone
And I want to hold you
Protect you from all of the things
I've already endured
And I want to show you
To show you all of the things
That this life has in store for you
I'll always love you
The way that a father should love his daughter
Sweet Zoe Jane
Sweet Zoe Jane
So I want you to say this
ТCause I wouldnТt know where to begin
To explain to you what I have been through
to explain where your daddy has been
And I want to hold you
Protect you from all of the things
I've already endured
And I want to show you
To show you all of the things
Sweet Zoe Jane
Sweet Zoe Jane
Fill Me Up
I just had to let oyu know
ФCause I donТt always let it show
You give me neensd room to grow
And I just had to tell you so
You fill me up, ypuТre in my veins
A look could take my breath away
And all these things, you give away
Sometimes I take for granted
ItТs just like poetry inside
to hear you beathing by my side
Lke IТm in heaven and IТve died
So glad youТre with me for this ride
You fill me up, ypuТre in my veins
A look could take my breath away
And all these things, you give away
Sometimes I take for granted
I see your fade to start my day
Makes all my bad dreams do away
And all the stupid games we play
WouldnТt have it any ither way
You fill me up, ypuТre in my veins
A look could take my breath away
And all these things, you give away
Sometimes I take for granted
You fill me up, ypuТre in my veins
A look could take my breath away
And all these things, you give away
Sometimes I take for granted
Layne
I heard today that you were gone
I had to stop and sing along
The song they played to say goodbye
A song that gave, gave me back life
You'll never fade
The words you gave
My life you saved
Your name was Layne
And on that day a child was born
To someone who you helped along
And helped see through his darkest times
Because of you, this child she is mine
You'll never fade
The words you gave
My life you saved
Your name was Layne
The words you said
You made me feel like they were all for me
The words you said
They will always be a part of me
The words you said
You made me feel like I was not alone
The words you said
You gave us all the strength to carry on
So to me you'll never fade
My life you saved
Your life you gave
Your name was Layne
Falling Down
WhatТs happened to you?
ItТs obvious youТve changed
Something deep inside you is probably to blame
Must be lonely up there your head up in the clouds
Even though you got there what does your consciences tell you now?
ItТs never the dame on the way down
How does it feel when your feet finally hit the ground?
When all of your bridges arenТt around
And the sandcastles you built are falling down
You had us all sitting right there in you hand
But you had to fall because thatТs how this life s
Got your fingers burned by burning candles at both ands
Now the tableТs turned and you demons are you friends
ItТs never the dame on the way down
How does it feel when your feet finally hit the ground?
When all of your bridges arenТt around
And the sandcastles you built are falling down
So now I question what you gonna do
Now that everythingТs gone up with you
You believe the shit you say is true
But everythingТs gone up with you
Life remembers everything you do
Your karma has caught up with you
ItТs never the dame on the way down
How does it feel when your feet finally hit the ground?
When all of your bridges arenТt around
And the sandcastles you built are falling down
Reality
The light are o but you not home
YouТve drifted off somewhere along
Somewhere thatТs safe, no questions here
A quiet place where you hide from your fears
Sometimes when your out of rope
The way to climb back upТs unclear
The walls you build around yourself
I guess they also keep you here
Are you afraid of what they think?
Whoever УtheyФ happen to be
Or Are you hiding from the scares of your own reality?
So you sedate and drown in vain
YouТve got a pill for every day
A suit and tie to mask the truth
Its ugly head is starting to show through
Sometimes when your out of rope
The way to climb back upТs unclear
The walls you build around yourself
I guess they also keep you here
Are you afraid of what they think?
Whoever УtheyФ happen to be
Or Are you hiding from the scares of your own reality?
The monster youТre feeding, you lack of perception
The things you will do to fulfill addictions
The light at end of your tunnel is closing
What is it that youТre so afraid of exposing
YouТd give is all up for whatТs there for the taking
Whatever is takes to keep your hands from shaking
The same things youТre thinking might make you feel better
The same things that probably got you here
Sometimes when your out of rope
The way to climb back upТs unclear
The walls you build around yourself
I guess they also keep you here
Are you afraid of what they think?
Whoever УtheyФ happen to be
Or Are you hiding from the scares of your own reality?
The monster youТre feeding, you lack of perception
The things you will do to fulfill addictions
The light at end of your tunnel is closing
What is it that youТre so afraid of exposing
YouТd give is all up for whatТs there for the taking
Whatever is takes to keep your hands from shaking
The same things youТre thinking might make you feel better
The same things that probably got you here
Tonight
Just try to understand this isnТt what I planned
This rideТs out of my hands
So now IТm forced to be something I can not be
If only I could make you see
Tonight IТm alive
IТve watched you al grow up and so have
I inside this this isnТt really what I had in my mind
I no longer relate to this worlds of hate
ThatТs forced upon my plate I tend to disagree
I hope itТs not just me, alone if only I could make you see
Tonight IТm alive
IТve watched you al grow up and so have
I inside this this isnТt really what I had in my mind
Tonight IТm alive
IТve watched you al grow up and so have
I inside this this isnТt really what I had in my mind
Tonight IТm alive
IТve watched you al grow up and so have
I inside this this isnТt really what I had in my mind
Could It Be
Well I donТt know what to say
Because thereТs truth to what you say
I know it kills you IТm this way
ThereТs something different every day
Could it be that I never had the change to grow inside?
Could it be that my habit is to find a place to hide?
Could it be that sometimes I say things just to disagree?
Could it be that IТm only being me?
Not easy living in my mind
A little peace is hard to find
My every thought is undermined
By all the history inside
Could it be that I never had the change to grow inside?
Could it be that my habit is to find a place to hide?
Could it be that sometimes I say things just to disagree?
Could it be that IТm only being me?
I know I hear the words you said
Over and over again I just canТt get them thought my head
ThereТs just too many voices
Must be like living with the dead
Wating for me to begin
To do the things that I have said
And for this IТm sorry
So thereТs some truth to what you say
Could it be that I never had the change to grow inside?
Could it be that my habit is to find a place to hide?
Could it be that sometimes I say things just to disagree?
Could it be that IТm only being me?
Blow Away
Live in my head for just one day
I see myself and look away
The road is showing now on my faze
Soon IТll disappear,
IТll disappear without a fucking face
Faces that IТve seen turn old and grey
IТve lost many friends along the way
Memories I never thought would fade
They fade and blow away
I wish that I could disappear
Unzip my skin and leave it here
So I could be on one again
And never let nobody, IТd let nobody, IТd let nobody in
Faces that IТve seen turn old and grey
IТve lost many friends along the way
Memories I never thought would fade
They fade and blow away
So now the walls are closing in
Because in life you sick or swim
Sometimes these shoes donТt feel right in my head
Feel like a book that canТt be, a book that canТt be, a book that canТt be read
Faces that IТve seen turn old and grey
IТve lost many friends along the way
Memories I never thought would fade
They fade and blow away
