So I'm waiting for this test to end,
so these lighter days can soon begin; I'll be alone, but maybe more carefree, Like a kite that floats so effortlessly; I was afraid to be alone, but now I'm scared that's how I like to be; All these faces run the same, how can there be so many personalities? So many lifeless, empty hands, so many hearts in great demand; and now my sorrow seems so far away, until I'm taken by these bolts of pain; But I turn them off, and tuck them away, until those rainy days that make them stay; And then I'll cry so hard to these sad songs, and the words still ring, once here, now gone; And they echo through my head everyday, and I don't think they'll ever go away; Just like thinking of your childhood home, but we can't go back, we're on our own; Ohh. . . But I'm about to give this one more shot, And find it in myself, I'll find it in myself; So we're speeding towards that time of year, to the day that marks that you're not here; And I think I'll want to be alone, so please understand that I don't answer the phone; I'll just sit and stare at my deep blue walls, until I can see nothing at all; Only particles, some fast, some slow, all my eyes can see is all I know; Ohh. . . But I'm about to give this one more shot, And find it in myself, I'll find it in myself; ( Do, do, do, do-do-do ) (x3) |

Why does she sing these sad songs for me, i'm not the one
To tenderly bring her soft sympathy i've just begun To see my way clear it's plain, if i stop i will fall I can lay down a tear for her pain, a tear and that's all. What does she want me to do? She says that she that knows moments are rare I suppose that it's true And on she goes to say i don't care when she knows that i do. Well, maybe she just has to sing, for the sake of the song And who do i think that i am to decide that she's wrong. She'd like to think i was cruel, She knows that's a lie for i would be No more than a tool If i allowed her to cry all over me. Oh my sorrow is real even though i can't change my plans If she could see how i feel then i know she'd understand Does she actually think i'm to blame? Does she really believe that some word of mine could relieve all her pain? Can't she see that she grieves just because she's been blindly deceived By her shame? Well, maybe she just has to sing, for the sake of the song And who do i think that i am to decide that she's wrong. I know nothings what it seems, maybe one day she'll start to realize That if she abandons her dreams then all the words she can say are only lies When will she see that the gain is only to lose? All that she offers me are her chains, and i got to refuse. But it's only to herself that she's lied She likes to pretend it's something that she should defend, with her pride And i don't intend to stand here and be the friend from whom she must hide. Well, maybe she just has to sing, for the sake of the song And who do i think that i am to decide that she's wrong. Well, maybe she just has to sing, for the sake of the song |

standing in front of you
they fade into the wall and leave behind nothing nothing at all I know I don't understand how they forget how some will just pass us by and take what they can get I know I don't understand how weightless they must be without feeling without feeling without feeling grasping with my fingernails as they tear through your skin leaving no signs of pain no wounds to mend I know I don't understand how they forget how some will just pass us by and take whay they can get I know I don't understand how weightless they must be without feeling without feeling without feeling I know I don't understand how they forget how some will just pass us by and take whay they can get I know I don't understand how weightless they must be without feeling without feeling |

i called you on the phone
i said i was confused and in a daze you said this uncertainty one day i would crave so i wrote down exactly how i wanna live and now it's a promise i'll never give and it's a faint line i trace to recreate the semblance of love of some stability and it's a faint line i trace to recreate a semblance of love of some stability it's just a faint line i trace to recreate a semblance of love of some stability it's just a faint line i trace to recreate a semblance of love of some stability it's just a faint line i trace to recreate |

I will take your childhood dreams
And turn them into to beautiful film I will take your most important things Cast them gold fill a mueseum So your heart doesn't know where mine's been I'll never let your heart go where mine's been I will kiss away every tear They'll disappear in my mouth And i will believe in all your fears You let them in, i'll let them out And put them in their place, my love So your heart doesn't know where mine's been I'll never let your heart go where mine's been I'll never let your heart go where mine's been |

Something's wrong you say
I looked into those eyes a hundred times a day those deep blue wells so vague elusive as christ until the day the secrets spilled into my room down the phone line into view I've waited all my life to know why our light is gone our white light that's home maybe love and peace are waiting for us somewhere other than this world at least we pray lalalaa etc. I'll write you and in my dreams I'll lay on your chest to muffle your screams and all the love I see I'll hold it close to me in hopes that one day our secrets will be free but now our light is gone our white light that's home maybe love and peace are waiting for us somewhere other than this world so we pray lalalaa etc. |
