Save Me
Can't help but feel the noose again
Grasping the knot under my chin
I love it when it wins
Another inch towards the fall
Crave the abyss more than the wall
Just to entertain my sins
I'm breathing in from the inside out again
Breathing in from the inside out again
Somebody save me
'Cos I'm out of control
Somebody stop me
'Cos I'm begging for more
Scratching the itch beneath my chest
Keeping it down with cigarettes
And I know it's not enough
Tried pulling out but I'm caving in
I feel my apathy begin
Another day I'll try and win
I'm breathing in from the inside out again
Breathing in from the inside out again
Somebody save me
'Cos I'm out of control
Somebody stop me
'Cos I'm begging for more
Somebody save me
'Cos I'm out of control
Somebody stop me
'Cos I'm begging for more

Not Giving In
Welcome to the corner of your brain
Always there to keep you sane
Or is it the other way?
Bite down on words that leave your mouth
Wait for the time to let them out
But you never mean what you say
Is it something you've endowed upon yourself
For not giving in?
Is it something you wear proud upon yourself
As a believer?
'Cos I know something
You can't hide about yourself
Maybe I'm a little bit to blame
For taking down your gentle frame
Exposing whats underneath
But you are the anti-christ in me
The thought that makes me grind my teeth
Your bleeding out I'm breaking free
Is it something you've endowed upon yourself
For not giving in?
Is it something you wear proud upon yourself
As a believer?
'Cos I know something
You can't hide about yourself

If I Could Fly
Wright home said I'm coming back
The only way i know
If only there were someway
Of getting there a little faster
So I ask the question that still remains unanswered
What will happen when we fly
I ask my question, so long remained unanswered
What would happen if
If I could fly
Away from here
Away from all these
winding roads
Way up high
Away from here
Away from all my roads
If I could fly
Away from here
Up way into the universe
If I could fly
Short straights and those seasick turns
We all could live without
No speedways, no roads to follow
Well wouldn't that be better?
So I ask the question that still remains unanswered
What will happen when we fly
I ask my question, so long remained unanswered
What would happen if
If I could fly
Away from here
Away from all these
winding roads
Way up high
Away from here
Away from all my roads
If I could fly
Away from here
Up way into the universe
If I could fly

Over

Over
I guess I stared at the odds
Looked at the chances from a new page
Something better all the same
To have to ask again
To simply follow the blind
Another face into the new cage
Somethings driving me insane
And yet we walk again
I feel like this has gone to waste
Over your soul
I feel like this has gone to waste
Over
To have to ask again is second nature
A class no longer easy to recall
But you love to lead the path walked by the righteous
Hello, hello you've got nowhere to fall
I feel like this has gone to waste
Over your soul
I feel like this has gone to waste
Over

Stars
Haven't seen you in quite some time
Are you still fighting with your past?
Have all your dreams been coming true?
Been through your problems seen your last?
Did you make it out in sell it all?
Did you break your heart and soul?
Did you fall into the hands that did you wrong?
Or did you walk in bet it all?
And the stars will come out on their own
And the world will be here when we're gone
Will your stars still come out on their own?
Will your world still be here when we're gone?
Tell me where did you go wrong
Tell me when did you through down
Tell me when did you feel strong
Did you feel strong or thrown around?
Do you still talk before your midnight?
Do you still question who's yourself?
Do you still crumble break inside?
Do you still let your thoughts rebel?
And the stars will come out on their own
And the world will be here when we're gone
Will your stars still come out on their own?
Will your world still be here when we're gone?

Angel

Angel
Oh lord send me an angel
To sing away all my fears
The fire that awaits
Must be better than this
And the evening will come
When something will fall my way
Maybe then will a better man
Call her name
Mmmmmmmm
As the church tower chimes
I drink a bit to dull my state
Begging time to run the clock again
Believing it would change my fate
So lord send me an angel
To throw away all my fears
For tonight I fear
A better man calls her name
Mmmmmmmm
Sometimes a better man
Will reap the dreams another sews
'Cos they're just a dime a dozen
And more to take wherever they grow
Please lord send me an angel
Send her down to take my soul
For tonight I know there's a better man
She calls her own
Mmmmmmmm
You can lay it on the line
I'll pull my heart out every time
You're my Angel, Angel
You can lay it on the line
Pull my heart out every time
You're my Angel

Winter Days
One more of these winter days
Where life belongs to runaways of cost
All alone inside of company
I slowly smoke the remedies I've lost
Just a slave to emotion
Adrift in the ocean, can't swim
Back to putting on the better face
And let another winter day begin
Tell them I'm still alive
Tell them I'm doing fine
But I lie
Twist and slither so the pieces fit
And fake a way into the bliss of love
We believe it beats the bitterness
Of staring at a puzzle made of rust
Unsatisfied with cards at hand
Believing that the dealer's but a man
Tilt the table, rig the deck
And cheat away into a better hand
Tell them I'm still alive
Tell them I'm doing fine
But I lie
Sleep unsettled one
Sleep until it's done
Smoke into the gun
Sleep unsettled one
I'll fall back to my colder ways
Embrace the face that better says I'm fine
All alone inside the dream I've spent
Another day surrendering my mind
Just a slave to emotion
Adrift in the ocean can't swim
Guess I'm bound by the winter days
To never let a summer day begin
Tell them I'm still alive
Tell them I'm doing fine
But I lie
Sleep unsettled one
Sleep until it's done
Smoke into the gun
Sleep unsettled one

Other Side
Is there anybody else who feels like me?
Stuck in constant suffocation though I breath
Build a wall I know the bricks I lay will fall
I feel comfortable when i don't feel at all
Everyday another insecurity
And I'm not quite sure that who I am is me
And I'm not quite sure that who I am is me
'Cos I'm tired of always living in my head
Under constant observation by the rest
I fixate on conversations never had
Welcome to the other side of who I am
I conform to acts that you call sanity
Never seem to say the words I really mean
I despise the eyes you crave so avidly
Always catching up to who you wish I'd be
Everyday another insecurity
And I'm not quite sure that who I am is me
And I'm not quite sure that who I am is me
'Cos I'm tired of always living in my head
Under constant observation by the rest
I fixate on conversations never had
Welcome to the other side of who I am
I'm breaking out
Now I know there's someone else who feels like me
