Subb

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...

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.

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.

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...

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.

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...

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.

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!

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"

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
