You Can do better
I took a look in the mirror
and found out your superior.
I took a look at myself
and figured out why my life’s a living hell.
I always told you I didn’t understand;
There’s so many pretty faces.
But for some reason you’d rather me,
though that takes so much paitence.
Maybe it’s because,
You felt so much better,
about yourself standing next to me,
It was so easy to get her.
Or maybe it’s because
no one would ever try and steal me away
forever was a guarantee,
...

I love you
Is there someone out there for me?
In this world of tragic,
in this life of havoc?
Is there someone to save me from my thoughts?
Because I would give and do anything,
right now the only thing that helps is to sing,
But the words I write can't save me from me for too long.
I just one find one person,
who won't dissapoint,
Who thinks just like me,
and sees the point.
Well what's the point in speaking?
If no one truely hears me?
And what's the point in living?
Without someone beside me?
And I just wanna be alone, ...

Breakout
I wanna break out,
out of my shell,
Without being told i'm going to hell.
I wanna cry out,
out for help,
Help with breaking out.
I think it's time I break out,
I won't break down.
It's time I break out of my shell,
It's time I wake up from this nightmare,
How will you face us?
When the time comes?
It's time I let me know I'm not the only one.
I'll break out without a sound,
the only way you'll know is when I stop coming around.
I wanna be loud,
When I tell the truth.
Of what happened between me and you.
I'm not gonna...
out of my shell,
Without being told i'm going to hell.

Where are you
It was too good to be true,
I should have stepped away.
But should've, would've, could've
doesn't change where i am today.
My heart's been broken by you,
now what do you have to say?
I should have known from the start,
you were only playing games.
Where, are you now? You said you'd always be there for me,
but you've dissapeared when I turn around.
Where? Where are you now? You said you meant everything you said,
you said you weren't just fooling around.
And I am stuck here now,
Waiting for just a sound.
The sound of your footsteps,...
I should have stepped away.

To tell you the truth...
= screaming/growling
If you ask me, You don't deserve pity.
You're just a monster and you know it too.
But I won't let their words, get to me.
Because I'm still alive even If i'm black and blue!
You're still breathing, with no consequences.
While I was stuck there, kept in the dark.
Now i'm gonna show you how it feels.
When your heart has been ripped apart.
I'm okay,
I'm fine.
I'm actually better,
no reason to lie.
I don't even have to try.
But I still won't let you get away with it this time!
This isn't for me,...

The real me
= screaming/growling
You're the only one who's seen the real me,
and didn't run away.
And that's why I am begging you,
begging you to stay.
*Here we go!*
It's just another pretty lie folks;
Welcome to my funeral.
Looked at all the times I waited for you,
and you didn't show.
You're the only one who's seen all I can be,
and didn't hate a single side of me.
But I guess I've just been played.
I knew it was too good to be true.
I hope you know I didn't mean it when I said
''I'm in love with you''
It's not true.

Comatose
Alright,
I'm not the type,
to tell someone who they are.
But when you're staring back at me,
after just stabbing me,
that's taking it too far.
Comatose,
rose from below.
Opposed to all your hate.
You'll just have to watch me seize the day.
If you can't take responsibility,
for the thoughtless things you say.
Comatose,
heading for such sorrow.
Falling asleep,
they say that love is all you need,
but it's the reason why things aren't up to me.
Cause when all I do is think of you,
I don't matter to myself,
So now...

She's so pretty
You're blinded by narsicistic love.
I'm blinded by vain love.
I failed to see;
what you would do to me.
So self centered,
So self righteous
and everyone told me,
It wasn't meant to be.
But I wasn't gonna just sit back,
and not see what would happened to you and me.
How long we would last;
Would it all go to fast?
I didn't want to look at it
like 'when will this end'
And convince myself that it was all pretend
though it was
cause
she's so pretty
and i'm just a fly;
caught in a web of pretty lies. ...

How wrong was I?
So now I'm not your defender.
Look i Just give in.
I'll break down your door;
If you won't let me in.
I said it over;
and over again.
I expected this to happen,
But i had no plan.
I thought i'd be okay,
I thought i'd be fine.
I Thought if you were to break my heart,
It would heal in time.
I didn't seek perfection;
just wanted something new.
I was cold and lonely. Beaten up and abused.
The only thing I thought I could count on was you.
How wrong was I? I'm not fighting back this time. No; I'll just let it go. Won't beg,...

Defused
= Screaming/growling
Darling,
Don't be so shy.
Because second guessing
means forgetting
and forgetting means moving on.
Darling,
Don't tell me I was wrong,
but don't say you were wrong
and that you're so, so sorry,
because tonight
the sky is so starry.
We're laying under the same starry sky,
so we need to forget last night.
Until the next fight.
I don't care
how many times
I say i'm over you
I know its a lie.
Sadly;
no matter how much you betray me,
we're so much alike.
It's how you...

This means war
= Screaming/Growling
I'm getting really fed up with what you do to me,
And everything they're striving for,
well that's just not what I want to be.
I think it's time that you grow up,
and let your slaves free.
Because I'm just the easy target,
still you're no match for someone like me.
You fail to see,
behind these eyes,
or the truth in my lies.
I'm standing up,
honestly I've had enough.
If you think I give a single fuck; You're wrong.
Together we can stand up strong;
it's gone on for too long.
I guess this means...

Say what you want about us
= Screaming/growling
Every time they say you're no good for me,
I just laugh and turn away,
won't let them get to me.
Cause you're misunderstood
and I've been mislead.
So why let their worries,
get to my head?
They can say go away,
and i'll stay here forever.
They can say we'll never make it,
we'll just have to fake it.
They can say what they want,
The only one I listen to is my heart.
Every time my head's spinning,
my heart's pounding,
heart's pounding in my chest,
I get this feeling makes it even more...
