peace of mind [mp3]
you're never wrong. you're abrasive at best.and patience is a test i fail.
won't waste a breath to lie anymore.
this labor of love is becoming a chore
and i want to get back,
got to get back to feeling good.
yes, i want to get back,
got to get back to find it.
anybody see a way to ease this worried mind?
anyone? i could use a little bit,
a little peace of mind.
i know you know, i know you know
there's not much left...
...of my persona that hasn't been spent,
my mind is already been,
so many times, over what i have done,
a moment arrives and the next leaves you none.
and i want to get back,
got to get back to feeling good.
yes, i want to get back,
got to get back to find it.
anybody see a way to ease this worried mind?
anyone? i could use a little bit,
a little peace of mind.
i want to get back, got to get back.
want to get back, got to get back.
anybody see a way to ease this worried mind?
anyone? i could use a little bit,
a little peace of mind.
anybody see a way to ease this worried mind?
anyone? i could use a little bit,
a little peace of mind.
couldn't last [mp3]
looking back on last night and i said so many things i'm sure to regret.lost myself in these feelings i don't think i really understand yet.
contemplating why. now i'm fading fast.
needed you in my life, though i knew it'd never, ever last.
now, with the sun, i'm seeing everything so clear.
how much brighter my life was in all that time she was here.
if you could just have seen this mind full of demons. i'm not thinking clear.
and i know sorry wouldn't change anything, but it's the only way to express what i feel.
and i was taking you for granted, too wrapped up in myself to be tied to you.
contemplating why. now i'm fading fast.
needed you in my life, though i knew it'd never, ever last.
now, with the sun, i'm seeing everything so clear.
how much brighter my life was in all that time she was here.
you're the only one that could've saved me,
could've been everything i need.
you're the one that kept on believing,
holding on, in spite of me.
could've been everything i ever wanted,
everything that i had dreamed.
you're the one that kept on believing,
holding me.
contemplating why. now i'm fading fast.
needed you in my life, though i knew it'd never, ever last.
now, with the sun, i'm seeing everything so clear.
how much brighter my life was in all that time she was here.
i knew it couldn't last.
seven days [mp3]
so long. i was really glad to know you, and forever i will wish you well.so long. i was really glad to know you, i just wish i could've known you well.
feeling like i'm standing here beside myself,
and i know a million wishes couldn't bring me where you are.
reeling from the distance, here all by myself,
and i know a million miles would never feel this far.
sail away on broken flights, for seven days and seven nights,
we traveled all we ever meant to be.
staring towards your starry gaze, for seven nights and seven days,
where everything was only you and me.
from fairy tales to fantasy, for seven days, i swear it seemed
eternities could never be too long.
as pages turn to memories, those seven nights lost in between,
but don't you ever think that we were wrong.
between somehow, and some other way, i'd like to stop and turn around.
i think i'd really like to know you someday.
breathing. it just seems so much harder now.
i'd swear it's been a million years since you've been here and gone.
believing. it kind of seems so pointless now.
in a million dreams, it never seems to be so wrong.
fade away to candle light, for seven days and seven nights,
tomorrow's world had seemed so far away.
now vanishing within the haze, those seven nights and seven days,
like so much else i've lost along the way.
remembering it like a dream, for seven days or so,
it seemed we held each other right where we belong.
as pages turn to tapestries, those seven nights lost in between,
but don't you ever think that we were wrong.
fade it past another mile. unwrinkle time for just a while, to sit back and enjoy the smile.
i never meant to lose you 'long the way.
pictures running through my mind, don't know what i'd expect to find in another place, another time.
i never meant to lose you 'long the way.
way too tired, to close these eyes,of hopeless wants and endless tries. awaken to those soft good-byes.
i never meant to lose you 'long the way.
i've been away for much too long, and though those days have come and gone i never meant to lose you 'long the way.
don't you tell me i don't want to know now.
don't you tell me i don't want to know,
that it's over now.
it's all over now.
hoping to find [mp3]
maybe should've seen the thing coming.maybe knew all along.
maybe only wanted for a reason.
even if it's wrong.
could've been a freight train running.
could've been a great big fall.
could've been a corner piece missing,
or anything at all.
and it seems very much deeper,
all you think you needed to show.
all the while looking for an answer,
and i want to know what you're hoping to find.
and i really want to know what you're hoping to find.
thought that it could come around easy.
but you know it never does.
maybe it'll leave you one better,
better than it was.
and it feels very much deeper,
all you think you needed to show.
would you even recognize the answer?
do you even know what you're hoping to find.
and i really want to know what you're hoping to find.
silently shoulder as time washes over you.
carelessly colder as time rushes over you.
brilliantly bolder as time gives his soul for you.
what are you hoping to find?
and i really want to know what you're hoping to find.
run [mp3]
breeding your killers and you call yourselves heroesignorance and ashes and in lives forever changed
using any means to bring the world down to your level
hatred and the violence to drown the light of peace
rant if you want to
blame your problems on the world
killing innocents has made you
a disease that must be cured
you can run; run for your life but there is no hole deep enough to hide you
kill in the name of and betray your faith and god
what's meant to create fear can only bring us down to war
and all the petty differences and hatreds that you feed
spend your fortunes killing rather than helping those in need
hate is the weapon
making targets of us all
using terror is the cancer plotting civilizations fall
you can run; run for your life but there is no hole deep enough to hide you
time has come to run for cover with the eyes of the world out to find you
call it faith. it's all a lie
hate is the weapon
making targets of us all
terror is the cancer plotting civilizations fall
run for your life but there is no hole deep enough to hide you
time has come to run for cover with the eyes of the world out to find you
you can run; run for your life but there is no hole deep enough to hide you.
invisible [mp3]
find me an angel with scarlet wings. let me know,let me know about all the songs that she sings for me.
curse the daybreak and all that it brings. let it go.
let it go the way of the finer things. bring it on.
throw up a curtain so that i can't be seen. pull it down.
pull it down until i can know what it means to see.
build a shell for me in which i can hide. come along.
come along, and dare you to come inside. bring it on.
and i want to be invisible. i think i'd much rather hide than be the one to seek.
and i want to be invisible. i want to close my eyes and fall back to sleep.
i'm thinking that i can feel it coming down the road.
better hold on to something. going to explode.
never thought it could all be such a waste of time.
i forget what i want, so nevermind.
and i don't even know what i would want it for
traveling down the same way that i came before.
always thought it could be just what i hoped to find
i forgot what i wanted. nevermind.
hold me open wide so i can receive. take me down.
take me down to the places i needed to be to believe.
bring me holy words from which i can teach, lay them down.
lay them down, but place them just out of reach. bring it on.
and i want to be invisible. don't really want to try, don't really want to keep...
and i want to be invisible. i want to close my eyes and fall back to sleep.
and i don't really know what i could want from you.
i could only imagine if i thought it through.
could have been about anything i left behind.
does it matter now? well, nevermind.
any hope for a change must be completely blown.
i've been thinking we're better leaving it alone.
always thought it could be, but now i've left resigned.
doesn't matter now, so nevermind.
and i want to be invisible. too many lines that i don't want to speak.
and i want to be invisible. i want to close my eyes and fall back to sleep.
and i want to be invisible. i think i'd much rather hide than be the one to seek.
and i want to be invisible. i want to close my eyes and fall back to sleep.
and i want to be invisible. don't really want to try, but i really want to be
invisible. i want to close my eyes and fall asleep.
