Wall Of Shame
Something has happened to your world
Can you imagine you could
There's too much pressure on you now
Why you would ever throw away
What's been given to you
Woke up and nothing's even there
Now you're falling too far away
It is hard
Sit inside your wall of shame
Believing what's forgotten
You make it hard to find the world
Sit inside your wall of shame
And nothing even matters
What can you say but I'm to blame
When trouble lingers on your mind
You wait; but dig in deeper
There's no more room for honesty
Breathe in the vapors of your lies
Just when you're choking on them
These thoughts are spinning 'round your head
You're falling too far away
It is hard
Sit inside your wall of shame
Believing what's forgotten
You make it hard to find the world
Sit inside your wall of shame
And nothing even matters
What can you say but I'm to blame
You're falling too far away
It is hard
Sit inside your wall of shame
Believing what's forgotten
You make it hard to find the world
Sit inside your wall of shame
And nothing even matters
What can you say but I'm to blame
Caught In The Sun
You're my distance, destination of choice
I'd give anything just to hear your voice
I could pass you on the street without saying a word
Most times, I miss the voice that goes unheard
What If I missed you, you got caught in the sun
What If I did something never to be enough
People everywhere how could I be sure
If it's you that I have been looking for
What would it take for me to be comfortable
With you, with me you're the chosen one
What If I missed you, you got caught in the sun
What If I did something never to be enough
You are there for me this I hope and pray
You will wait for me I won't be too late
What If I missed you, you got caught in the sun
What If I did something never to be enough
Will you wait for me or will I be too late this time
You are there for me this I hope and pray
Difference Of Opinion
I see my life is taking time away from me
Chains that bind the things I want to change
I can't break free
I told you so, now I can't let go
Of the things I've strived so hard to be
I'm afraid I've come too far
My changing life's been torn apart
But I won't give up on my dreams
I don't think I'll ever see
The things you wanted me to see
I only hope we can be friends - again
Pain, the pain I've felt is growing deep inside of me
I can't imagine what you wanted me to be
What if I fell down; would you pick me up
Would you be there taking stabs at me
Someone Else To You
If I could help the way I feel inside
Then I could say those words to you
Now I don’t mean to be unjustified
But I’m scared of losing you
Chorus:
You didn’t think that I could change
I proved you wrong and walked away
Only I control the way that I reply
Words are only promises
That can't be kept when I make them
I only wish that I was someone else to you
I have seen the way you look at me
And I am taken by your voice
Something pulls at me
From far away
Like a noose I tied for you
Now nothing seems to be the way we want
And I’m tired of playin games
So if I drift away from what we had
It’s all unjustified
Chorus:
You didn’t think that I could change
I proved you wrong and walked away
Only I control the way that I reply
Words are only promises
That cant be kept when I make them
I only wish that I was someone else to you
I’ve taken away everything
I could never seem to be
Chorus:
You didn’t think that I could change
I proved you wrong and walked away
Only I control the way that I reply
Words are only promises
That cant be kept when I make them
I only wish that I was someone else to you
(repeat chorus)
Dead End Lights
shame on you i thought you would behave
bite your tongue 'cause your lips have gone astray
even still, i've managed well
i've tried too hard for you
whatever you had intended i would be
is further from this fake reality
that is not how you feel
i've tried too hard for you
dead end lights on this oneway road for me
i can see the hill
offer you a life of tepidly
i just need a friend
dead end lights on this oneway road for me
i can see the hill
offer you a life of tepidly
i just need a friend, yeaaaahh...i pray
Gain
A selfish act of decency
I supplied you on the phone
Faded past, lost memories
You think it best if I go
I kept you around for when I fall down
I'll need you there for me
Unto you, I give my heart
But then you take it all away from me
Leave it alone while I'm pushing it away
I don't feel you close to me
Taking away what's left in me
Now I need to find a way
I don't want to lose you, not before I change
I don't need to use you, nothing more I'd gain
I think
I'm scared
Of being here
Take it all away
1000 Times
I wasn't sure of when
But I knew there'd come a time
When I would feel this way about someone
And always need them by my side
You could make me want to leave the one I'm with
And I never wondered why
If I was ever giving something else
I'd give it back 1000 times
There is just something hard for me to grasp
How it was I could survive
If I would have to live my life without
1000 times
I've felt so strong for you ever since
The day you caught my eyes
And I can't help but wonder if my life
Is turning upside down this time
Could I've Been
Could I've been
Something more than what I've become
Really wonderful than some
Then today I heard a sad sad song I sang
And it was wonderful with pain
And I stop believing and I started thinking
It could be my mind
That's got me all choked up inside
With thoughts of all those fears I hide
And I stop thinking how I start believing
We could share our time that means nothing
If you aren't mine
and I knew you cared about me
Because people love to be loved too
I step aside and watch my life pass me by
You were supposed to be my wife
And stop believing, then I start thinking
And now I find that this thorn stuck in my side
Is all that's left of foolish pride
And I stop thinking now I start believing
Better Part Of Me
Something says to me don't be afraid
But if I don't worry I'll surely slip away
I need to speak to you, hear what you say
But if I breathe too hard I think I'll go insane
There's a part of me, so insecure
Of all that I could have and all that I've gone through
If there could be a way through a better design
I'd probably screw it up and let it slip away
Well I wonder if I stayed here
Would you become a better part of me
I can say now that you changed me
And I've become a better part of me
I am the strongest I have ever been
The very thought of you can't even comprehend
The safest bet for me is to focus hard
And try to face myself, I can't take it anymore
I hope I'm everything
That I need to be
You are my everything
So I'll just stay
After The Fall
I am not afraid of you
Look at me, you'll see it's true
You are broken, falling down
And now you're nothing, nothing
This time I want it too much
I just needed time to dust myself off
I can see much further than you
Enough to keep on trying
After the fall
I've waited time and energy
On your foolish pride, you see
You will find in time from me
That you are nothing, nothing
