Kyuubi 02:59
My life Jagged as my hair Shags below my eyes like a shroud that I can hide behind How does the time Fly when I'm at a stand still Stagnant in my path I cant seem to move I don't care (Don't care) About much these days Avoiding all attempts to think I'd rather be asleep I'll walk along These unastounding pathways Like a leaky faucet I cant seem to stop it Time to change Time to make things right Time to give back all the things that I had once before Time to change Time to make things right Time to forgive all the hate I had welling up inside I once was (Once was) Was led astray The people, places, things I loved all flooded back to me A kiss goodbye (Kiss goodbye) And a nod back to you my friend I'll be here in the end Can't wait to see you all again Time to change Time to make things right Time to give back all the things that I had once before Time to change Time to make things right Time to forgive all the hate I had welling up inside Time to change Time to make things right Time to give back all the things that I had once before Time to change Time to make things right Time to forgive all the hate I had welling up inside

Sort it out Breathe it in Live in doubt Without sin Think about What's within Cut it out Pull the pin I took you for granted Was in my dreams last night A neon hallway with you Mess it up Keep it down By the cup Buy a round Think it over Skip the town Dream it up Burn it down I took you for granted Was in my dreams last night A neon hallway with you

I wiped out Yeah I got wasted It didn't matter what I said and She said it wasnt good enough To hold it together So hold me tight tonight my dearest and sing me to sleep Forget my trust and memory and hand me a stiff drink They say it's as sweet as honey But I think that they lied They called her gas money 'Til the day that I died When I woke up I didn't know Where I was or what went down I found a note inside my room That read pull it together So bring me back with one six pack and I'll never leave again I'll bite my tongue and bide my time here with my best friend They say it's as sweet as honey But I think that they lied They called her gas money 'Til the day that I died They say she's as sweet as honey But I think that's a lie They called her gas money 'Til the day That I died They call her gas money They call her gas money They call her gas money They call her gas money

We're all asleep It's all a dream Nothing is real Always learning Always turning around The people sing all hail the king Wonder how it feels Tongues are twisting You are missing your crown So take your sadness Take your grief Oh I took nothing You're the thief I hope you're happy Now I am alone No more grunting we're elite Things to do, people to meet Keep it clean Don't drag your feet Love the feel It tastes so sweet It's the end of the world You'd give it all up for a girl Something saved me once again These nights will see me to the end It's time to go I'm tired of sitting down all day I need excitement Enlighten me A sort of euphoria In a of disarray I have the cure But I'm not sure how to use it So take your shots Your saving grace And watch it blow up in your face I hope it you're happy Now I am alone No more grunting we're elite Things to do, people to meet Keep it clean Don't drag your feet Love the feel It tastes so sweet It's the end of the world You'd give it all up for a girl Something saved me once again These nights will see me to the end No more grunting we're elite Things to do, people to meet Keep it clean Don't drag your feet Love the feel It tastes so sweet It's the end of the world You'd give it all up for a girl Something saved me once again These nights will see me to the end Get a life, you can't take mine.

Jaws 02:36
It feels right to walk around here As it is to say it feels weird Six strings won't do the fucking trick Drinking until the air is fucking thick I really miss (Hopping onboard) Because now (I'm always bored) Like a chord (I was struck) Only song (That doesn't suck) TO ME! ME! I'm feeling old Almost sold my soul Money was never ever the goal Looking back on schoolyard days Sometimes I wonder if I should've stayed Paid the price that I had to pay To draw on walls and skate the day away Got the world (On top of me) Locked by the jaws (Of opportunity) Trapped in the house (I'm not fine) Finding new ways (To waste my time) TO ME! ME! I'm feeling old Almost sold my soul Money was never ever the goal Fuck the pain away Nothing gold can stay With a battered brain God save the mad parade Bored of the USA It's with me everyday

Dislocation 04:15
I don't know where I'm going now That I'm running down a dream The sun comes through the blinds in blades Forever blinding me And what I grasp Thin as a thread Spending hours in my head And its time I got a move on Moving miles and miles ahead She said wherever I may go Be sure to turn it blue Three worlds apart Two miles away From my crooked brain and you And what I saw A tumbled wall Brick by brick we watched it fall Giving up or moving on I've got much longer left to crawl Bury me under these old American roads I can't remember last time I was there Carry me through these nights in dislocation I don't wanna spend my time to lay awaste Without you here The taste of sun is oh so sweet And I'll never wanna leave Can you tell me what it means To need a place stuck in between It's what I need not what I want Grasping onto all I got And I wanna smell the roses Stopping for all forget-me-not's I'll drive past burning timberline Straight into the fire Does someone got a light And I want to know What its like on the other side Take another bite From my aching hands I am leaving my hometown Confused by what I found Scared by what I've not I'm through calling myself cold Doing what I'm told Struck out on my own Bury me under these old American roads I can't remember last time I was there Carry me through these nights in dislocation I don't wanna spend my time to lay awaste Without you here

Relationship 03:25
Don't wanna admit I've got a problem because that makes it real Don't know how to feel Things are always better next time Don't wanna pretend I've got a life because that makes it mine So I waste my time Always at a business disco I see every bottle pointed at me I keep with the spirit Nonexistent next girl Don't know how to be in a relationship -ship -ship I'm making cards in November for my valentine Drinking cherry wine Washing out my head with dish soap Don't wanna be the reason for season 'cause it cuffs my neck The joker of the deck Just check my vitals or kick me I see every bottle pointed at me I keep with the spirit Nonexistent next girl Don't know how to be in a relationship -ship -ship Don't know how to be in a relationship Don't know how to be in a relationship -ship -ship -ship

Take Care 03:34
I ain't got no problems with ya I just got one with myself And until my name rests on a tombstone I'll just sit here on the shelf So now we're playing catch up While we're running out of time I've got a bone to pick with a mistress's grin Please, please be the wind to my sail I'm just a man who can't move the mountains with his bare hands Boy shackled his ball and chain heroin Stop holding your breath I've stopped holding my breath I'm still an enemy So tell me what you think I'm still around in your head It's all thats left of me What it means to leave behind a legacy I'm gripping at a thread with nothing left unsaid Keep me awake with the stakes of just losing my head So take care the hands you count on And the lungs gone on the mend You can take a breath and push out your chest and tear them wide open Whoah I'm just a man who can't move the mountains with his bare hands Boy shackled his ball and chain heroin Stop holding your breath I've stopped holding my breath I'm still an enemy So tell me what you think I'm still around in your head It's all thats left of me What it means to leave behind a legacy I'm gripping at a thread with nothing left unsaid Keep me awake with the stakes of just losing my head

Remedy 04:23
Wasting time With thoughts that hold us down Glasses raising Wasting breath On fighting words to a kid That don't know better Tasting air Fills up the famished minds To remedy this Taking one step Getting some rest Piecing what's left Anything less is theft Anything less is theft Faking smiles Doesn't do you any good But you need to Breaking hearts Are good stories to tell When they come along Smell perfume Like a calming wave That you can see through Taking one step Getting some rest Piecing what's left Anything less is theft Taking one step Getting some rest Piecing what's left Anything less is theft Anything less is theft Taking one step Getting some rest Piecing what's left Anything less is theft Taking one step Getting some rest Piecing what's left Anything less is theft Anything less is theft
