From the Inside
Stop chasing
Start taking
The mat just stood up
Not walking on me anymore
No more empire
I'll set it on fire
I've finally decided
No longer divided
I'll fight my own fight
Fight for what's right
And this will come
From the inside
I will fight and scratch and claw
And after that I'll fight some more
No one's breaking down my walls
Start the process
Build this fortress
And if anyone shows
Kick their damn heads off
We're the rogues and rebels
The army of disheveled
And we're fighting those in power...
Start taking
The mat just stood up
Not walking on me anymore
No more empire
I'll set it on fire
I've finally decided
No longer divided
I'll fight my own fight
Fight for what's right
And this will come
From the inside
I will fight and scratch and claw
And after that I'll fight some more
No one's breaking down my walls
Start the process
Build this fortress
And if anyone shows
Kick their damn heads off
We're the rogues and rebels
The army of disheveled
And we're fighting those in power...

Dollhouse
You'd never guess
That she was loved any less
Always with a smile
Happy and outgoing while
She's crying inside
She hides her fears
And her tears
Locks them up in her dollhouse
Every night
She just might
Take a look in her dollhouse
And she'll spent the night crying
By the morning eyes drying
And she sets off with her soul in her dollhouse
Everyone knows her name
Nature seems tame
But no one knows her story
Could be sadness could be glory
Noone knows for sure
She hides her fears
And her tears...
That she was loved any less
Always with a smile
Happy and outgoing while
She's crying inside
She hides her fears
And her tears
Locks them up in her dollhouse
Every night
She just might
Take a look in her dollhouse
And she'll spent the night crying
By the morning eyes drying
And she sets off with her soul in her dollhouse
Everyone knows her name
Nature seems tame
But no one knows her story
Could be sadness could be glory
Noone knows for sure
She hides her fears
And her tears...

Close
I'd probably say hi,
Like normal people do,
Make a stupid joke,
Wish I never spoke,
Then we'd laugh,
Short and sweet,
Arrange a time and place to meet,
All in all sounds pretty great,
Almost like it could be fate,
Problem is I'm frozen too,
No way I can talk to you,
So I sit down where I always sit,
And ask myself is this really it?
I've never been so close,
Without ever being close,
If we talk then there's a danger,
You'll only see the stranger,
And you'll never know the heart of which you've always been a part.

Bullets
Here we go again,
I guess I'm wrong again,
Driving you mad,
This time it's bad,
Here's the part I dread,
Trying to see inside your head,
Can't stay like this,
No good like this,
Your words are like bullets,
Shooting me down,
Shooting me down,
Trigger, blast,
I'm bleeding out my broken heart.
Here we go again,
Pissed you off again,
Fighting your advances,
I've had so many chances,
Sick of who I am,
Excuse of a man,
You hate me then I hate you,
Hate has been thrown around a few
Your...

Loosely Based On A True Story
Broken, angry
How my story used to go
Now I'm happy
To search for more
Find my meaning
Fly into the wild
Now I'm, hungry
Freedom of a child
I found a blank page
I'm ready to write my own ending
Do what I must
Choose who to trust
To make it happen
No more, sorry
No more wasting time,
I must, push on
Cross over the line
Excuses, wasted
This is my new start
All the sadness
I will finally part
I guess I have to thank you for this pool of motivation,
So **** you, and thank you, for...

Take A Picture
And it seems like all you want to feel is the warmth of adulation.
In return you give to me a bucket full of alienation.
I'm complex and I have high levels of toleration.
But I'm not here to simply fill the role of admiration.
Don't forget to take a look,
Take a picture if you want to,
So you remember what you had,
When I tell you I don't want you,
Relationships are usually built on the notion,
That two people love eachother and express it with emotion,
The love you give is comparable to one fish in the ocean,
I'm looking for a tidal...

More Importantly
It's true, I do,
Keep fighting in the dark,
Throw punches, not looking,
Where I'll make the mark,
Sure, I'm wreckless,
Losing my control,
Facing all my demons,
Trying to find my soul,
Not like I'm a heartless man,
Just a man who's heart is trampled,
You'd be lucky to get a beat,
Love was only sampled,
Love has put me in this mess,
Also put me to the test,
if love is what you truly are,
Shake off all the rust,
Love me if you must,
I'll try to embrace trust,
More importantly,
I'll try to...

Feet On The Ground
I remember how long it's been,
since I said goodbye,
I remember four years ago,
like it was yesterday,
and I see you,
as you pass me
so blatantly,
not sure of yourself,
but you don't see me,
So I come after you,
look at you,
I can't believe it,
it's really you,
Hey baby, how you doing?
Been a while since you've been around,
you've been around.
I just want you to know,
I've got my feet on the ground,
feet on the ground.
Not supposed to be here,
you whisper...
since I said goodbye,
I remember four years ago,
like it was yesterday,
and I see you,
as you pass me
so blatantly,
not sure of yourself,
but you don't see me,
So I come after you,
look at you,
I can't believe it,
it's really you,
Hey baby, how you doing?
Been a while since you've been around,
you've been around.
I just want you to know,
I've got my feet on the ground,
feet on the ground.
Not supposed to be here,

Bridge
Let's bridge the gap,
between this and hope,
hope for them,
and hope for us,
because without hope,
we will be crushed,
Build the bridge back to hope,
for even when it's lost,
we will search endlessly,
for promises fulfilled,
and love to save us all,
Failure is the nail and hope is the hammer,
and the cycle starts again,
Build the bridge back to hope,
for even when all is lost,
and there's nothing left to fight for,
we will search endlessly,
for promises fulfilled,
and love to save us all.

Shade
GO!
Walk out the door
not interested any more
got better things to do
and better things to say
wanna find my meaning
wanna find my way
not like you care, anyway.
I can never find my way
because I am a shade
of what I want to be
and you are all I see
WAIT!
Don't go out that door
without you I lose more
nothing left to do
nothing left to say
you are my meaning
there is no other way
when you say you love me,
I know you mean what you say.
I can never find my way ...
Walk out the door
not interested any more

and better things to say

and you are all I see

Don't go out that door

nothing left to do
nothing left to say
you are my meaning

I know you mean what you say.

Placebo of Self Deprivation
Under all your paint
You are naturally daint
Just let your paint melt off now
Just let your paint wash off now
The sky is blocked
By the barrier called you
Just let it all wash off now
We'll work it all out somehow
You don't need to hide behind the mask
You can find the meaning behind all the lies
and if
You can't progress I will help you through
To find the blank canvas
So you can paint the portrait
Of your future
Fighting for nothing
Except a placebo of self-deprivation
Just let the paint melt...
You are naturally daint
Just let your paint melt off now
Just let your paint wash off now
The sky is blocked
By the barrier called you
Just let it all wash off now
We'll work it all out somehow
You don't need to hide behind the mask
You can find the meaning behind all the lies
and if
You can't progress I will help you through
To find the blank canvas
So you can paint the portrait
Of your future
Fighting for nothing
Except a placebo of self-deprivation
Just let the paint melt...

Close Your Eyes If You Have To
Race through the fields,
fight the winds of change,
reach the other side,
don't look back,
close your eyes if you have to,
life is an everlasting path that leads us many places,
I just want to live my life with the same old loving faces,
please don't leave me to fill the empty spaces.
If you want to fight,
then fight til the end,
reach the other side,
don't look back,
close your eyes if you have to,
life is an everlasting path that leads us many places,
I just want to live my life with the same old loving faces,...
fight the winds of change,
reach the other side,
don't look back,
close your eyes if you have to,
life is an everlasting path that leads us many places,
I just want to live my life with the same old loving faces,
please don't leave me to fill the empty spaces.
If you want to fight,
then fight til the end,
reach the other side,
don't look back,
close your eyes if you have to,
life is an everlasting path that leads us many places,
I just want to live my life with the same old loving faces,...
