Fool 02:13
Take it out on me With everything you say All your pleasant words Remind me I’m a jerk I’m not fine I am dead Half awake in bed Stuck in “what if” dreams There’re things I should have said And with Fall on the way I can’t take the pain Nothing is the same Especially Halloween ‘Cause when we’re right It’s a scream Still in disbelief Why’d I let you drive away that day I want to walk in the rain I want to hear when you sing I want to see your pretty face Every single day At a fountain it began Why did I let it end You and I weren’t meant To be so far away I should have followed you home (How’d I let you get so far away)

think of all the lies you fed me everyday think of all the times you let me feel afraid remember all the nights you screamed and swung at me when you wouldn't clothe me the school sent me away you think that I forgot the times you called the cops lied and said I hit you, begging you to stop remember when you threw me out into the dark twelve alone and scared...and sleeping in a park no you can't claim me i'm broken free i'll make them see that I'm not like you and you're not like me. now that its been years you want me to forget now i'm doing well, you're bragging to your friends now its time for me to make sure that you see all the wicked sins that are your history

Bring down all the false pretense about the things you’re seeing I know that you’re not a racist you just have your reasons You’re running out but where will you go You’re leaving town where will you go You say that you’re all alone, that these are not your people Brown skin and indigent, you know they’re not your people You’re running out but where will you go You’re leaving town where will you go Run along and find your new friends Can’t you see that it’s over Say that its over Cause I let you go Godspeed now but where will you run When you see that its over Say that its over Or I’ll let you know The running off part was easy Save your tears now for the show Cause you know This was the last time I’ll go

Mary Of God 03:24
Tell me what you know, Tell me what they did There's something in your eyes, A hint so desolate I'm asking you again, Tell me little sis I'm not one of them, There's nothing to defend They said that you were wrong, Made you feel alone The speck is in their eyes, This den of hypocrites And I can't stand to see questioning your "being" The person that you hide is a treasure not a vice But it can't come from me, Its time to set it free Open up and see the beauty in the rage Will make you want to scream "Damn why can't you see I'm not gonna change, there's nothing wrong with me" I don't want to fall asleep, Its not alright with me If you are somewhere suffering I'll never know the pain you feel or if your wounds will heal And it is not for me to say That you should turn the other cheek but you can turn to me And I will give you all I can And we'll face the end I heard that you had run away, I hope it wasn't shame That made you feel like you can't bear All the nasty things they say and the looks they gave They sadly show their ignorance I just want to take your hand and finally be your friend The kind I should have always been And we'll face the end, We'll face the end.

Signals 02:05
Just a boy, in a daze So happy that you came my way Please don't go, please just stay You know I like you here with me Do you even know what I was thinking When you finally came up to me You took a seat, you told me your name And started laughing about some guy who's smiling at me "Don't make a scene," You said so softly Before explaining that you'd be the one to save me Please just save me Do you even know what I was thinking When you finally got up to leave I couldn't speak, so I took out a pen I started writing all the words I'd wished I could say There were just three, I started with "no" before your name Then I took that pen and wrote the word "stay" Please won't you stay

I don’t wanna go And live my life working all day All I want’s to stay Away from what they think is safe Your words they pound in my head Their good intentions They're offered from the dead And I think I know what you meant They’re making money but they face the day with dread Their definition of success makes me want to fail I don’t wanna go And live my life working all day All I want’s to stay Away from what they think is safe Your words they pound in my head Their good intentions They're offered from the dead And I think I know what you meant They’re making money but they face the day with dread Hating all of it Saving me a place Beckon to the grave

E-Major 02:40
Your eyes are like a symphony that needs no sound A rush, a leap, a fall and I forget the ground I want you to know Your smile crushes me and I hope that I know how To make you understand that I'll never let you down I want you to know If you want it or need it You'll never have to say it A bad day, call me i swear I'll make it easy I'm counting, the days left Until I get to see you And breathing for nothing When you're away from me now You're never alone I want you to know You'll never be alone

Runaway 03:39
I can feel the grudge you hold inside See resentful stares you fail to hide We all know we’re not all right Let’s clear the air tonight I was just a kid, I made mistakes When she put me out I stayed away I heard you say you felt betrayed Called me a runaway Surrounded everyday by drugs and thieves That was my vacation from poverty Cried alone no one can see Never be weak Focused every thought on just one thing Knew exactly who I’d never be Made my demons my family And they kept me clean Runaway A twelve year old can’t be a man So I refuse to make amends Isolation was my plan I made it to the end I don’t want to feel this way Love you so but its too late I know you’ve lived a life of pain And I’m sorry
