Inside A Cage
Inside A Cage
She locked my heart inside a cage
She finished me then turned the page
It pours rain every night from my eyes
Every drop reminds me of her lies
When she left me she left me in the night
She took away from me my only light
I have tried to forget her since she has gone
Cannot forget the only love I have ever known
I will just sit in the dark my heart locked away
Living in the night every minute of my day
She locked my heart inside a cage
She finished me then turned the page
It pours rain every night from my eyes
Every drop reminds me of her lies
When she left me she left me in the night
She took away from me my only light
I have tried to forget her since she has gone
Cannot forget the only love I have ever known
I will just sit in the dark my heart locked away
Living in the night every minute of my day

Torn Pieces
Torn Pieces
I am being torn to pieces by my own heart
Because of my love you do not want a part
I try but you reject me every time I turn
I have never felt your fire yet I still feel the burn
I know that I should leave but my heart says stay
As new pieces of me just keep falling by the way
It is not your fault it is just what I feel and see
If you must blame someone put the blame on me
I always think about you even when you are not around
As torn pieces of my heart are getting harder...

It is not your fault it is just what I feel and see
If you must blame someone put the blame on me
I always think about you even when you are not around
As torn pieces of my heart are getting harder...

Scrambled Brain
Scrambled Brain
You have scrambled my brain
You have made my eyes start to rain
Now when I think I only think of you
Even though you have broken me in two
You have flooded me with undying dread
Cut me to pieces with knife edged words you have said
Put my love in a coffin and buried it deep away
It will never again be exposed to the light of day
You have scrambled my brain
You have made my eyes start to rain
Now when I think I only think of you
Even though you have broken me in two
You have flooded me with undying dread
Cut me to pieces with knife edged words you have said
Put my love in a coffin and buried it deep away
It will never again be exposed to the light of day

Fake Face
Fake Face
I am wearing my fake face around you
You just made your case for me to
From now on I will not be myself
Not until after you have left
I will still smile when you are around
Only to disguise my inner frown
I am wearing my fake face around you
You just made your case for me to

Cannot Tell Her
Cannot Tell Her
I cannot tell her how I really feel
If I did I know that she would leave
Can never tell her that I love her
I would never want her to grieve
I cannot tell her how much I hurt
When I see her with another guy
I just want to run away to my dark
Another part of my heart does die
Just when I think I should tell her
Something always goes all wrong
It hurts me to see her sometimes
It would hurt more if I was gone
I cannot tell her how I really feel
If I did I know that she would leave
Can never tell her that I love her
I would never want her to grieve
I cannot tell her how much I hurt
When I see her with another guy
I just want to run away to my dark
Another part of my heart does die
Just when I think I should tell her
Something always goes all wrong
It hurts me to see her sometimes
It would hurt more if I was gone

Broken Tonight
Broken Tonight
Tonight I got broken
By words that were not spoken
Now I can finally see
Right through my love fantasy
Now my eyes will never cry
Because I have broken my own lie
If next time you see me acting differently
You can just go on not noticing me
When you find that no one will listen
Then you will realize someone is missin'
No more will I be your joker you are jokin'
'Cause tonight is the night I got broken
Tonight I got broken
By words that were not spoken
Now I can finally see
Right through my love fantasy
Now my eyes will never cry
Because I have broken my own lie
If next time you see me acting differently
You can just go on not noticing me
When you find that no one will listen
Then you will realize someone is missin'
No more will I be your joker you are jokin'
'Cause tonight is the night I got broken

Peek
Peek
Let me peek deep in your heart to see why it is broken
Let me speak words of love that to you have gone unspoken
Let me find your passion that you long ago locked away
Let me be the one that comes to you and be the one to stay
I want to heal your deep scars that you try to hide so well
Let me guard your secrets you thought you would never tell
I want to feel your heart as it I gently heal by delicate touch
I only wish to show to you that I love you oh so much
Never to leave you, by your...

Dead End
Dead End
I am in a love on a dead end street
I know it will end in my hearts defeat
Tired of giving love getting no return
A fire that fed by ice can never burn
I talk to you and you hurt me with a smile
As my broken heart you add to your pile
I know with others I could never compete
I will crash and burn on this love's dead end street
I am in a love on a dead end street
I know it will end in my hearts defeat
Tired of giving love getting no return
A fire that fed by ice can never burn
I talk to you and you hurt me with a smile
As my broken heart you add to your pile
I know with others I could never compete
I will crash and burn on this love's dead end street

The Weight
The Weight
The weight of your love is holding me down
A way for me from under it cannot be found
I have cried for so long and so many tears
Alone in my dark room where no one hears
I have waited for so long on your love to find
But my heart and soul is running out of time
I listen close to every word that you do not say
The weight of your silence takes a toll on me every day
Staying hurts me but to leave I know would hurt more
Wish the love I have for you that you would no longer...

The weight of your silence takes a toll on me every day
Staying hurts me but to leave I know would hurt more

The Cold Wall
The Cold Wall
It is time for me to lower my cold wall
Not ever see you or talk to you at all
Cannot keep giving love with no return
I see now your heart I will never earn
Stop seeing what I wish but seeing reality
Time to put my heart on ice for eternity
It always hurts my heart when you I do see
The more I do not see you the more it hurts me
I am tired of giving my love and heart away in vain
So I must lower my cold wall to freeze out the pain
It is time for me to lower my cold wall
Not ever see you or talk to you at all
Cannot keep giving love with no return
I see now your heart I will never earn
Stop seeing what I wish but seeing reality
Time to put my heart on ice for eternity
It always hurts my heart when you I do see
The more I do not see you the more it hurts me
I am tired of giving my love and heart away in vain
So I must lower my cold wall to freeze out the pain

Trigger
Trigger
Time for me to pull the trigger, it is time for me to go
Time to stop being a fool, stop being your clown show
Time for me to leave here, never going to come back again
Time for me to see how it really is, not how I wish it had been
When I pull the trigger it will be to late for words to be said
No longer will you be able to collect the tears that I once shed
Your lack of feelings for me that you seem to hold so dear
Will no longer freeze my heart when I am no longer near
Your memories...

My Grave
My Grave
The only way to cut loose is to cut myself
Until there is nothing of me that is left
Wash myself away in steady red streams
Since I will never realize any of my dreams
I am nothing at all so leave me in my grave
There is nothing of me left that can be saved
I am just dirt waiting to be buried in a box
With a heart that is made up of broken rocks
Any love that I have ever found has been wrong
No one to love me back to where I want to belong
Caught in a stream of...
