Once crawled inside of her I was fighting my way back out And now I'm left here without one word Nothing left to think about I stutter to say my thoughts I shudder to make it back, it seems so wrong It's a wonder that I faced the odds All the while they were being stacked I fear to circumcise I fear the words that are in disguise Your image is falling all over me But it wouldn't matter all that much So here we are again in my mind A broken heart and a troubled home, can you help me out? I've grown some feet and opinions I think of her and I start to foam, it can't be real Tell me something I don't know and I will follow Tell me which way the wind blows and I will follow Tell me something I don't know And I will follow you wherever you will go...
Devastated by the echoes Who'd ever thought that I'd know Overwhelmed by the words you said Make no sense in my head Understated more than one time Looking for the perfect line Still trying hard to keep it going on Falling down again... I'm just looking for direction But I don't understand What's the story behind your eyes? And everyday it's all confusion Tell me more I'm down again... Devastated by the distance We are more than worlds away Overwhelmed with all the things you did It wasn't nearly fair Underrated for way too long I think I don't belong Still trying hard to keep it going on Falling down again...
I have no choice but to tell you That I've been chillin' with a couple of my friends I have no choice but to ignore that You've been waiting for an answer all night long With all the lies can you tell me Why are you listening to me all along And I'm trying to, I'm trying to tell you now That I am really fuckin' scared You said, "You better take your time And think twice before you fail You better use my line Or they will take you down to jail"
I know it's been a long time But I'll be back in a day or two Don't worry about us now I promise I'll catch up soon I'm sick of all the hotel beds I can't wait to hold you tight Next Sunday it will be good Now that the season changed It's when the daylight saving time ends And I'll be home (in your arms) Just don't forget to set your clock An hour back You told me not to hang up We can talk a minute or two It's such a comfort to me But the words will disappear I'm sick of all the collect calls And all the roadside telephones Next Sunday it will be over A reason to carry on.
There's no way I am gonna stay I wanna leave it all behind... I got a static pulse When everyone around Is trying to bring it down Seems like a waste of time No means no, I don't wanna play tonight I'd rather go home, and leave this fuckin' place... We've been there, done that We went to school and did our time Never thought one day I'd have to deal With a jaded crowd who does not care It's so unfair, because we work so hard Just to entertain... Take me out of the line And bring me back to ordinary Take me out of the line I miss my life... I got a static pulse, when everyone around Is trying to bring it down... No means no, don't wanna play tonight I'd rather go home... Up on stage, seems like fun and games But we are dying up here... I wanna scream and tell you how I feel I just wanna quit, I feel sick... I think I'm gonna stop!
And I remember everything you said Do you wanna go with me, for a trip? We planned to go for five days in a row Only just you and me, like a dream It's over, Still remember, Those were the five best days of my life It's all gone, Only memories, And I know that I will never love again, no... And I remember all the time we spent Under the sun of Virginia, so in love I never thought that it would be the last Time we had as lovers, I miss those times I'm feeling so down I'm on my knees Five days with you I'm feeling so down I'm on my knees Five days with you Those were the best...
Deceptive, receptive To all the things that turned out wrong Destructive, abusive The bleeding scars need to heal alone The story is repeating I've heard this more than a thousand times The story is now over The sequel is coming and I might not be there Who's laughing out loud? Am I deceptive? Who's laughing alone? Am I deceptive? Deceptive, receptive To all the things that turned out wrong Destructive, abusive The bleeding scars need to heal alone The state of confusion That you put me in might come to an end The state of confession Will get me nowhere but it might help my heart.
Slightly off of the center Of a photograph That was meant to tie us into place Brings a sense of comfort That will cradle me While I sit around waiting for your return And this sense of comfort Will be handle I hold on To fight frustration 10 minutes of failure Were the answer I was waiting to help me off my back Slightly short of perfection Of a photograph That I set in my mind and hold you into place Fight aggravation While someone pulls the carpet down underneath my feet And maintain the memory Can you tell me you'll be coming back again Can you tell me that you miss me just as much Has this only been a bad dream If so could you please wake me up.
If you ask me If you ask me i will just deny it Just like nothing ever happened to us now This time it's real This time i will follow my own advice And i will weigh the words that might flow through my mouth Twenty one just inches from perfection If you only knew just what your going to do Twenty one im never far behind Keep this place warm If i should fall or leave for a moment you know i will be back whenever you need me Trust this feeling Trust this feeling even if you doubt me I wont be the one who will let you down
Check your head Make sure it's in order Before you break another heart Be yourself Don't spend your time pretending That you'll be happy on your own Close your eyes And tell me the truth That you knew it all along Cuz home is where Home is where the heart aches It's where my heart aches And you're never coming back Trust this heart With empty explanation Cuz there ain't no turning back Tell me now Tell me I'm the reason For your sudden change of mind There's something in your eyes That reminds me how hard I tried There's something in your heart And it's gotta be me.
