Hear Me Now
02:56
|
|
||
i'm more inclined to tell the way that i really feel
some times i feel alright, but most of the time not really sure
and i don't care about the state of my sanity
censor me or not, i'll rot on my soapbox
CH: hear me now, or hear me later
hear me not, you will hear me either way
i bitch about the things i go through everyday
and i care what anybody has to say to me
another day brings pressures of a brand new strain
another foot i have to fight to take right off my chest
when i confess i ease the pain i feel inside
this is my life, a constant battlefield

Atrocity
03:43
|
|
||
these situations, they drive me crazy
if it's not one thing it's another
i'm pulling out my hair, i'm grinding my teeth
i'm hoping for an answer that involves the death of me
atrocity
complications arise again from nowhere
just like they always do
when i least expect it is when i should
you see i try but problems always arise
CH: my scars will never heal
my heart won't let me feel
old wounds reappear
my feelings disappear
atrocity
another set back, no way to get back
what the hell have i done
another memory come back to haunt me
which way do i run
atrocity

These Girls Just Kill Me
03:01
|
|
||
i'm tired of the opposite sex
i'm tired of being the one they reject
i'm tired of just being friends
and i hate it when they say everything will be okay
and i hate it when they pretend
that i have a shot, that they like me a lot
that i'm a great guy, well then give me a try
their horns are hidden, their halos are tilted
why make me believe
when they can't even see me for who i am
stop fucking saying i have a chance
when i know exactly where i stand
you can't see me for more than just a friend
that's your nice way of saying "no use playing,
you never had a chance"
i'm always the nice friend, but never the boyfriend
it's about time that i complain
i'm always the last in line, i'm always just wasting my time
and no i'm not gonna cry
'cause i don't have a shot, they don't like me a lot
i am a great guy who's not given a try
their horns are hidden, their halos are tilted
they made me believe
when when they can't even see me for who i am
stop fucking saying i have a chance
when i know exactly where i stand
you can't see me for more than just a friend
that's your nice way of saying "no use playing,
you never had a chance"

Every Time I Cry
02:56
|
|
||
i'm a mess on the inside
when i think that i'm fine
i die a little more
when i think about it
i just can't fight it
there's no way around this
CH: and every time i cry i see that everything on my mind ails me
every time i cry
time heals all or so i'm told
i won't find peace until i'm old
that's if i even can get there
by then i don't think it won't matter
by then it won't matter
i guess i'll see if i get there
CH: and every time i cry i see that everything on my mind ails me
in my mind it always seems that i can not just be happy
every time i cry

A Solution to A Problem
04:18
|
|
||
half past 2 and i lie awake
i question myself and my intent
where am i going and what do i want
these questions never get solved
all they do is haunt
everybody says that i'll be okay
as long as i kneel down and begin to pray
but i can't fathom ever thinking that way
all i've gotta do is just clear my head
CH: it's about time i clear my head
if i can not then i'll end up dead
these things in me push me to the edge
when all i've gotta do is clear my head
everything starts to feel like regret
and everything i've done just looks like mistakes
how can i stop things from being this way
how can i make these feeling just go away
wrong or right i'm cynical
i'm negative, i killed my hope
when all i have to do is just believe in me, in myself
it's hard to find this kind of wealth
i'm in need of some help
i'm cynical, i'm negative
i killed my hope
when all i have to do is just believe in me

I Love It When She Cries
03:38
|
|
||
she cries nobody loves her, but everyone wants her
and she wants them all
it's fun to see everyone but me has got her attention
hey pretty girl where ya goin, where ya goin now
you're so depressed, you're so depressed
it makes me laugh
CH: i love it when the beautiful people cry
her life's so hard 'cause nobody
no one understands her
so understand her
one guy turns her down
and her frown looks so sweet to me
the years of the easy life has ended it's run
now she wants to end her life
'cause all her life she got what she want
and now it's all over
her ride is over now

now i know that i never should have
kept myself from anything that
i wanted for me
now i'm learning from my mistakes
that i made when i was a young boy
affect me now that i'm a man
CH: 'cause i'm miserable but you're happy
and i'm happy but i'm sad
this doesn't make any sense to you
well it doesn't have to
missing all the things never shared
and everything that i never had
don't you tell me i don't know what
i'm saying, 'cause i know that
what i'm saying is true to me
everyday i'm reminiscing
all those days as when all my dreams were
as pure as, as pure as truth

you think you know everything there is to know about me
but you're wrong, you'll never know the real me
you'll never understand me, you'll never fucking get me
stop wasting your time, stop wasting mine
and every attempt you makes a mistake
so stay away from me
you never know when to quit
you're bothering me
go for broke while i light my smoke
just keep on wasting your breathe trying to analyze
what lies behind these tired eyes
there's more you don't know and more i won't show
and every attempt you makes a mistake
so stay away from me
you never know when to quit
you're bothering me
every time you think you think you've got me figured out
you just scratched the surface
everything you found i've pointed out before
so you found nothing
just stay away from me
you never know when to quit
you're bothering me

In My Head
02:29
|
|
||
hey i like you, do you like me too
please say yes or i'll slit my wrist for you
i'll bleed for you, won't you bleed for me too
please take your time to answer
CH: now i know what love's all about
at least so in my head
i know you see me watching you
i watch you all the time, oh yes all the time
please don't be afraid 'cause i won't hurt you
at least not at first
i know i've said this before
but i swear i love you even though you just met me
my name is john, i'm a libra, what's your sign
i know that you complete me

Another Dream
05:16
|
|
||
another dream that i wish for
is to win the heart of a girl
she's so sweet and so beautiful
but i know i'm not what she wants
'cause i'm nothing of the man of her dreams
i'm nothing but the man she can't see
and her eyes, her beautiful eyes
they won't ever meet mine
CH: and i wish that i could be so much more
if i hold my breathe and turn blue for you
would it even matter
'cause i caught myself just wanting more
than she will ever offer
a friendship and nothing more
but i'll love her more than anyone
and i know i'll never be so much more
|

i'm trying to learn to love by forgetting how to hate
this takes it's toll on me
a million tears i've cried, a million days i've wasted in pain
i waste away
CH: i close my eyes and change my mind
when they open i'll see something new
a brand new day, a brand new way
i'll change my life so i won't live in pain
don't know which way to go, it's all new to me
i'm scared but this is good for me
i'm wiping off my cheeks, i'm drying my eyes
taking my steps towards a new life
no more, i've close those doors
and i thank my love for being the one
now on my life is worth much more
what i thought before
