2 AM and she calls me cause I'm still awake Can you help me unravel my latest mistake I don't love him winter just wasn't my season Yeah we walk through the doors so accusing their eyes Like they have any right at all to criticize Hypocrites you're all here for the very same reason Cause you can't jump the track We're like cars on a cable and life's like an hourglass glued to the table No one can find the rewind button girl So cradle your head in your hands And breathe just breathe whoa breathe just breathe May he turned 21 on the base of Fort Bliss Just a day he said down to the flask in his fist ain't been sober since maybe October of last year Here in town you can tell he's been down for a while but my God it's so beautiful when the boy smiles Wanna hold him maybe I'll just sing about it Cause you can't jump the track We're like cars on a cable And life's like an hourglass glued to the table No one can find the rewind button boys so cradle your head in your hands And breathe just breathe oh breath just breathe There's a light at each end of this tunnel You shout cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out And these mistakes you've made You'll just make them again if you'll only try turnin around
2 AM and I'm still awake writing this song If I get it all down on paper it's no longer inside of me Threatening the life it belongs to And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd Cause these words are my diary screamin out aloud And I know that you'll use them however you want to But you can't jump the track We're like cars on a cable And life's like an hourglass glued to the table No one can find the rewind button now Sing it if you understand yeah breathe Just breathe oh breathe just breathe oh breathe just breathe oh breathe just breathe
I'm sittin' on a citadel Contemplating life Making a point to waste my time I'm walking on clouds Of white
What if I fall What if I don't What if I never make it home What if I bleed What if I break And I find that I can't take The city below the citadel Holding my own hand? Sittin' alone
I'm breakin' on the balcony Breakin' window panes Killing the pain of broken hearts I'm walkin' on clouds I'm walkin' on stars
What if I fall What if I don't What if I never make it home What if I bleed What if I break And I find that I can't take The city below the citadel Holding my own hand? Sittin' alone
Holdin' on to something That's keepin'me from jumpin' So afraid to go in alone Holdin up this fortress With imaginary forces Longing for a life down below
She don't run from the sun no more She boxed her shadow and she won Said, I can see you laugh through these bottle caps And this wire around my neck ain't there for fun But someday we'll all be old And I'll be so damn beautiful Meanwhile I'll hide my head Here in this paper bag Cause if I can't see you then you can't see me And it'll be okay Fly little bee away To where there's no more rain and I can be me Yeah, they talk about her She smiles like she's so tough She says, Hey, can you talk a little louder I don't think my heart is broken enough But someday we'll all be old And I'll be so damn beautiful Meanwhile I'll hide my head Here in this paper bag Cause if I can't see you then you can't see me And it'll be okay Fly little bee away To where there's no more rain and I can be me Some days I wade in the indigo Singing that song on the radio I blame these puddles on the rain You know I gotta keep these cheeks day today Gotta keep my cheating strategy And baby I'm gonna have it made But someday we'll all be old And I'll be so damn beautiful So I'll hide my head Here in this paper bag Cause if I can't see you then you can't see me And it'll be okay Fly little bee away To where there's no more rain and I can be me
And I'll hide my head Here in this paper bag Cause if I can't see you then you can't see me And it'll be okay Fly little bee away To where there's no more rain and I can be me Where I can be me yeah I can be me Ohh Where I can be me
Driving away from the wreck of the day And the light's always red in the rear view Desperately close to a coffin of hope I'd cheat destiny just to be near you If this is giving up then I'm giving up If this is giving up then I'm giving up giving up On love On love Driving away from the wreck of the day And I'm thinking 'bout calling on Jesus 'Cuz love doesnt hurt so I know I'm not falling in love I'm just falling to pieces And if this is giving up then I'm giving up If this is giving up then I'm giving up giving up On love On love
Maybe I'm not up for being a victim of love All my resistance will never be distance enough
Driving away from the wreck of the day And it's finally quiet in my head Driving alone finally on my way home to the comfort of my bed And if this is giving up then I'm giving up If this is giving up then I'm giving up giving up On love On love
Black and blue Ichose my way I, the candid castaway, in a way delayed by one more broken season to find reason for appeasing you And so I found my guiding light flambant, flashing, red and white through a starrynight I'm better nowhere bound than drowning on your solid ground Satellite, save my life I'm wishing on atwo way radio Love might be just like me Jaded, waiting all alone A whisper on a two-way radio
All in all I fare the same wishing on an aeroplane as calling starsby name A lonely song offreedom rings in hope of someone listening And so I send myfeeble flare through the silent, arctic air heading anywhere until at last I've finally found a place to lay my anchor down Satellite, save my life I'm wishing on atwo-way radio Love might be just like me Jaded, waiting all alone You never know Never never Heaven help me I'm drowning andI can't save me Send some salvation to keep me alive Satellite, save my life I'm wishing on atwo way radio Love might be just like me Jaded, waiting all alone Satellite, save my life I'm wishing on atwo way radio Love might be just like me Jaded, waiting all alone A whisper on a two-way radio
On the ground With my world Upside down I got a vision of your face And I must get me out For so many memories we've yet to make God don't send to me your angels I just wanna hear you say again
Forever love Say you'll love Digame, Digame Tell me so I can hold you in my soul If I go I'll know
When you smile With those eyes Baby it's like You place a finger on my heart And your lips next to mine Make me think that maybe heavens where you are God don't send to me your angels I just wanna hear you say again
Forever love Say you'll love Digame, Digame Tell me so I can hold you in my soul And if I go I'll know
La la la la...
Forever love Say you'll love Digame, Digame Tell me so I can hold you in my soul And If I go I know Forever love Say you'll love Digame, Digame Tell me so I can hold you in my soul And if I go I'll know
You say you fell while holding diamonds in your hands "It's your fault for running, holding diamonds," I said And I offer no sympathy for that I hear that it was you who died alone And I offer no sympathy for that Better off I sparkle on my own
And someday love will find me in the rough Someday love will finally be enough
I turned around 3 times and wound up at your door Now you say you know all you did not know before And I offer no sympathy for that I hear that it was you who died alone And I offer no sympathy for that Better off I sparkle on my own
And someday love will find me in the rough Someday love will finally be enough
I got your love letters I threw them all away And I hear you think that I'm crazy I'm driving 95 And I'm driving you away And I shine a little more lately
Someday love will find me in the rough Someday love will finally be enough
Someday love will find me in the rough Someday love will finally be enough
Under the weight of your wings You are a god and whatever I want you to be And I wonder if truly you are Nearly as beautiful as I believe
In my head Your voice You've got all that I need And this make believe will get me through Another lonely night
Under the weight of your wings Should ever we meet on your side of your stereo I will pretend I know not of your thoughts And even the way that they mirror my own I'll take you away in the way that you take me and go where I go
In my head Your voice You've got all that I need And this make believe will get me through Another lonely night
Fall away to the sound of my heart to your beat Melancholy and cool, kind of bitter sweet Love on repeat I'm echoing all your philosophies And as I fall away to the sound of my heart to your beat Melancholy and cool, kind of bitter sweet Love on repeat I'm echoing all your philosophies And as I...
Oh...
I don't Wanna be fool-hearted Baby, I'm out Numbered in my head I don't I don't wanna be fool-hearted Baby, I'm out Numbered in my head My head...
In my head Your voice You've got all that I need And this make believe will get me through Another night
Yeah, your voice You've got all that I need And this make believe will get me through Another lonely night
Lonely night...
Under the weight of your wings I make believe you are all that I'll ever need
Well, it's been almost a year to the moment When I finally realized it was over And I knew that love wasn't good enough Of a reason for me to stay Well, I saw you yesterday; you were drivin' And I tried so hard to forget You were alive, and as you passed by I began to cry Over things that I did not say
And hide underneath my blankets and sheets I'm finally free I'm killin' the ghost of you, and I'm close to Awakening me
Yeah, yeah So I'm takin' my heart and I'm gettin' me out And love's something that I wouldn't wanna live without So I'm takin' my heart and I'm gettin' me out On my own, my own, my own
Well, it takes all of my strength to be stable And I force your insults under the table And if you were wise you would compromise And allow me to live my way 'Cause I am not a force to be reckoned with And you don't have a clue what you're messin' with And you can't see to the best in me 'Cause it's more than your heart can take
And hide underneath my blankets and sheets I'm finally free I'm killin' the ghost of you, and I'm close to Awakening me
I'm awakening me
I'm awakening me, yeah
I'm awakening me
So I'm takin' my heart and I'm gettin' me out And love's something that I wouldn't wanna live without So I'm takin' my heart and I'm gettin' me out On my own, my own, my own
I'm takin' my heart and I'm settin' you free And, baby, now you're just another song to me And the edge of your sword isn't sharp enough for me To bleed
never shine quite as bright as in the movies Still wanna go There's something here In the way in the way that we're constantly moving Reminds you of home
So you've taken these pills For to fill up your soul And your drinking them down with cheap alcohol I might be inclined to be yours for the taken And part of this terrible mess that you're making But me I'm the catalyst
When you say love is a simple chemical reaction Can't say I agree Cuz my chemical yeah left me a beautiful disaster Still love's all I see
So I'm taking these pills for to fill up my soul And I'm drinking them down with cheap alcohol And you'd be inclined to be mine for the taking You're part of this terrible mess that I'm making But you you're the catalyst You'll be the thing You'll be the pain You'll be the star You'll be the road rolling below The wheels of a car And all of the thoughts oh god Don't know if I'm strong enough now You'll be the thing You'll be the pain You'll be the
Catalyst
These L A lights no no They don't shine quite as bright as back in Frisco Do you wanna go Still wanna go
I've tripped again and things are starting to get interesting Don't give me choices cause I can't decide My mind is soaked in words I've come to terms with all my insecurities And purities no friend of mine
And dreaming doesn't do no good Cause I don't wanna lie That I'm okay and I'm alright I'd rather take it and forget it Consider this a warning Cause I'll start another fight And you'll say its all alright I'll wait for the day when you find I'm too much for you, baby So lay your hands over me And feel what you only see But don't bother wasting your time if you're trying to change me
You're kinda cool but I know better than to break the rules Of messin' with a lesson that I'll never learn I'll go from bad to worse and later back to better But I'll never better bridges that I'm bent to burn
And dreaming doesn't do no good Cause I don't wanna lie That I'm okay and I'm alright I'd rather take it and forget it Consider this a warning Cause I'll start another fight And you'll say its all alright I'll wait for the day when you find I'm too much for you, baby So lay your hands over me And feel what you only see But don't bother wasting your time if you're trying to change me
This is a warning This is a warning This is a warning
And dreaming doesn't do no good Cause I don't wanna lie That I'm okay and I'm alright I'd rather take it and forget it Consider this a warning Cause I'll start another fight And you'll say its all alright I'll wait for the day when you find I'm too much for you, baby So lay your hands over me And feel what you only see But don't bother wasting your time if you're trying to change me If you're trying to change me If you're trying to change me
