Tell me things to help me see Because I cannot get away from me The darker side, the evil light It’s all a part and free The comfort zone, the evil home They’re here and watching me The late night ride, the pointless fight The things that set me free I think that waiting here is more than fair It’s more a part of me But what’s not there is chances that I’ll break to set me free I’ll only care when chances are There’s nothing that we’ll be But we’re not there So wait another week and set me free Tell me things to help me see Because I cannot get away from me The darker side, the evil light It’s all apart and free The comfort zone, the evil home They’re here and watching me The late night ride, the pointless fight The things that set me free I’ll only care when chances are There’s nothing that we’ll be But we’re not there So wait another week to set me free

I Know You 03:03
I know you This much is true Look at me Catastrophe And I wish some things would just fall right into place Do I deserve it? Well, that's all just in your taste You might say You'll have your day Well, that's fine What if you're lying? Is it demanding for me to just think this way I'm trying to be happy I'll just take it day by day by day And I wish some things would just fall right into place Do I deserve it? Well, that's all just in your taste Is it demanding for me to just think this way? I'm trying to be happy I'll just take it day by day by day

I Was There 04:20
I was there, broken stare, pay the fare Change affairs, I don't care But I could do better What the fuck? What's his face Out of luck, out of taste with the girl I shouldn't let her They'll come right back home to me Then I know that I will see I was waiting in their arms Now I know that I am scarred Then I am down And I'm out of place Then I am down A turn of your face Then I am down And I'm out of place Then I am down Not close to you Pay the bills, what a pill Take a drag, have a spill, unfulfilled There's a change in weather Called you up, What the fuck? Now I'm stuck Words and stuff Brave enough to write you a letter When I think that I am wrong I'll pretend that I am strong So, I'll change my point of view So it's nothing close to you Then I am down And I'm out of place Then I am down A turn of your face Then I am down And I'm out of place Then I am down Not close to you

I've been thinkin' 'bout Maybe when it comes down You and me are gonna be taken straight down Time to think about, even through the silent shout In a perfect world even I would be struck down All the faulty wiring is starting to fuck up Dizziness and confidence and you are just stuck up Wouldn't bet on it if all I had was just good luck Even though it is just a game Time to try it out even if it's filled with doubt All I see is bitter ends and a dark cloud Time to think about, even through the silent shout In a perfect world even I would be struck down All the faulty wiring is starting to fuck up Doesn't see all his confidence then you are just stuck up Wouldn't bet on it if all I had was just good luck Even though it is just a game

Pieces 03:14
Non-simple words flow to my head So nonchalant like flower pedals All in a breaking vine of truth I'm hearing tones to alert zone These mental zones that feel like home I swear to God that I could taste you It's something that is worth a choice I'm breaking glass by choosing voice And I'm not too scared to care I'll take you Why would I do this thing to you? Why would I break myself into All the little pieces there of me? I'll only take what I can see The outcome is regardless here I've eaten up and spit out fear I guess I'm just too proud to know you And in the span of life and time I hold few memories of mine But drinking wine like it could be you Pour all your troubles over me I'm just that guy who oversees All the little pieces there of you We'll only do what we can do Why would I do this thing to you? Why would I break myself into All the little pieces there of me? I'll only take what I can see

I ♥ a crazy girl And I might have met my match But I'm uncertain, too I know I won't get the other back I'm stuck on tragedy And it helps me in my head To feel that pain again Back in me like an old fucking friend
7.
Every Time 04:10
Every time that we meet like this It just fucks me up inside I know that it isn't right Every time that we meet like this Every time I see parts of you It pins me down I don't know what to do Well, it just fucks me up inside I know that it isn't right Every time that we meet like this
8.
Now You Know 03:54
I'm crazy and I'm falling for you But I don't want to control you It's something that I feel on the inside And nothing that I'm fueling for pride But when I look around to the outside I wonder what my brain looks like inside The questions that don't have any answers The wars, the AIDS, the guns, and the cancers There's something that we are not doing An issue that is worth pursuing But when I look around to the outside I'm pointing my finger right at that guy I don't know and I don't care Now you know why you are there I'm kind of breaking down on the inside I'm foolish and I feel like a big lie It's nothing that I'm holding against you But I think we some defense too And I'm trying not to act like an asshole But I guess that really is my main goal I don't know and I don't care Now you know why you are there

All the time in life I think that I am just so fucking insane Come up to me, maybe baby Tell me that it's all in my brain And I'm sitting next to you I'll say "I was sitting next to you that day" All the time in life I just thought You were just so fucking unreal Process in my brain goes to my thoughts And then my actions to steal And I'm sitting next to you I'll say "I was sitting next to you that day" I don't think that you should know All the time in life I think that I am just so fucking insane Come up to me, maybe baby Tell me that it's all in my brain And I'm sitting next to you I'll say "I was sitting next to you that day" I know just not what to say
10.
All of this waiting it seems so unfair I think to myself that I don't even care Look at my life like I'm reading a book Or watching a movie I would overlook And you just want to be happy Take me to heaven so I can get married Maybe it's something that I could see through I should look at myself like I'm you Put me on planes and just drag me around Cut off my smile and give me a frown Just give me something so I can relax Derail me now because I've gotten off track And I could just pray to my savior Kill all my instincts and change my behavior This would not be fair to anyone here I should listen before I can hear
