I`ll never know if I let you down

I`ll never know if I made you proud

All I can do now is think out loud

My life keeps spinning round and round

Stuck in this endless space and time

There's times I wish I could erase my mind

And saying sorry floats away

It comes to rest right where you lay

Chorus:

So Here I am I'm all alone

I'm fighting back, I'm broken and I'm torn

There isn't much that I have shown

I don't know if I can make it home

My little boy signs you to sleep

Did you ever look at him and then see some of me

I tried to hold on to your last breath

Should try to remember what I loved best

So I hide in the dark where it`s safe for me

There`s nothing left for me to believe

Like a prison with no walls that you can`t see

And no one seems to have the key

It's locked inside of me...

Chorus:

Do you watch over me or do you carry me

What do I deserve and what have I learned

As moments pass me by I feel my children cry inside

Your so much more, so much more

Chorus:

Make it home

Take me home

Do you dream in black and white

Do you scream alone at night

Coult it be something that I said

That keeps on messing with your head

We`re not as different as you think

Things could be different don`t you think

Chorus:

When we get together shouldn`t it make it better

I wanna be your lover when the lights go out

When we get together shouldn`t it make it better

I wanna be your lover when the lighs go out

Why do you pull your hand away

Is it the hurtful things they say

You`re just a coward if you can`t see

How your paranoia's killing me

We`re not as different as you think

Things could be different don`t you think

Chorus:

You should listen to your heart

We can break these chains

Chorus:

When the lights go out

The grass seems always greener

And the flowers all in bloom

Their garbage is even cleaner

That your parents' attitudes

Your sister she's a victim of depression

Once she was a home coming queen

But you don't even notice she's there

Cause you're hooked on pornography

Chorus:

Welcome to Suburbia

On shiny avenue

Welcome to Suburbia

Where they always welcome me and you

Your friends gather on the weekends

In backyard barbeques

You're sick and tired of their pretense

Cause their focus is always on their booze

While all the mothers are feeding on prozac

Their men just can't wait to cheat

A.O.L is your only escape

Can you say: Dysfunctional Family

Chorus:

You thought you were moving to a better life

Now you're finding out things just ain't right

It's just another zoo

He's wasting in a cage 'cause he beat his wife

I guess it's pretty clear it's not a perfect life

Out there after all

Chorus:

How did you undress me

You stripped me down without even trying

Why did you have to test me

You broke me down with all of your crying

Well it went on for much too long

And now I might be too far gone

Chorus:

After all this time

You don't even know me

After all your lies

Can't believe I still care

And I thought you were mine

But I guess I didn't know you

And I think it's a crime

That I ever cared

You broke me down

And now that you bled me

I'm turning grey I'm empty inside

So easy you read me

Like a page you turned me aside

Well it went on for much too long

And now I might be too far gone

Chorus:

You used to impress me

Now I can't even look in your eyes

Well it used to depress me

I'm doing what I can to survive

Chorus:

I can't sink any lower

I wish that I could show her

But blackness surriunds me

It's like someone's trying to drown me

Well I was homeward bound

Until I heard that sound

The bitterness that blinds

On a throne where I was crowned

This fable that surrounds

It pierces and it grinds

Chorus:

Am I a one time winner

That's about to lose it all

Or just a two time loser

With my back against the wall

Stuck in this dream

And there's no wake up call

How did I fall

I can't hide anymore

I broke the vow I swore

The pieces fall and melt away

I can't keep my demons at bay

Well I tried to leave it all behind

But darkness is all I find

And it stares me down

I just can't keep climbing anymore

Don't wanna know the score

Burn me to the ground

Am I a one time winner

Or just a two time loser

Chorus:

You're writing down your new years resolution

I'm thinking to myself that's it's no solution

You say how'd you end up in this situtation

Just take a look at your state of desparation

The wells run dry one more time

You just keep hanging on, and it's such a crime

Chorus:

You gotta let it go

Come on let it go

Let it go

Before you lose control

You gotta let it go

Come on let it go

Let it go

Before you lose control

You're talking about your mental confrontations

You're so close to total disintegration

Well none of your prophecies have come to their fruition

Still you stagger on through life I guess it's just your mission

Your pockets empty one more time

You can't buy happiness, isn't it a crime

Chorus:

'Cause you're about to lose your mind

You better take my advice 'cause there's not much time

Chorus:

The Guilt that breeds and hides in you

Is eating you inside

You're sleeping in the alley way

And working it at night

You keep searching for your glory

But you gotta pay the rent

They're hunted by your body

You're haunted by their scent

Lay your hands upon her like an angel from above

Put your arms around her 'cause she's falling

Chorus:

Now what if you could turn back the clock

And what if you were strong enough to stop

And what if you had any kind of luck

Maybe love could live again in your stained heart

The demon's taking over you

It lives inside your veins

The walls are screaming louder now

Screaming 'bout the sheets you've stained

Keep running from your misery

Keep running toward the flame

Wishing there was someone else

Someone else to blame

Lay your hands upon him like and angel from above

Put your arms around him 'cause he's falling

Chorus:

I'm running through a door that I kept closed

I'm chasing a dream with an end that I don't know

My balance is all gone there's no reason why

Maybe the letters you wrote or the tears you cried

Take me as I am and I will do the same

Forget it all, just let it go our lives are gonna change

Try to understand shed a tear tonight

I fill you up you take my hand in the dark you show me light

Chorus:

I'm losing myself

Getting los inside of you

I'm losing myself

And I don't know what to do

I'm losing myself

I'd throw it all away just to have you here

I'd wake up with no heart, no sou, just fear

I'm blinded by the ways of all before you

You broke me down and now I must implore you

Take me as I am and I will do the same

Forget it all just let it go our lives are gonna change

Try to understand shed a tear tonight

I fill you up you take my hand in the dark you show me light

Chorus

My girlfriend's mother, is going crazy

She keeps on nagging saying I'm too lazy

She wants the ring, well what's the rush

They both make me drink way too much

How did I end up here

Why does it feel like the end is near

It's all happening way too fast

And I don't think that I can last

Chorus:

You wouldn't wanna to be me

She's got me on my knees

It really sucks being me

It's like an ungly disease

You wouldn't wanna to be me

My girlfriend's brothers, they hate me too

They keep telling me if I mess up that my life is through

I wish that I could just run away

But if I try she'll just beg me to stay

How did I end up hear

God I really need another beer

It's all happening way too fast

And I don't think that I can last

Chorus:

I got no choice but to run and hide

Don't know where to go can't even bum a ride

I can't escape it's like a wicked curse

And every day it gets a little bit worse

Chorus

She's got me down on my knees

It really sucks being me

Yeah Yeah... It's like an ugly disease

You wouldn't wanna be me

Long lonely nights goodbye

There was a kiss and a spark

Radiates your eyes

Chorus:

And in the spaces in between

That's where you'll find me

There's nowhere else to hide

And I hope you'll understand

I'm an ordinary man

Trying to make his wrongs all right

Trying to make his wrongs right

The tears stream down your face in your ordinary way

There's not much you have to say to me

Chorus:

All right, trying to make it right

Have to say Goodbye

The fear screams in this place

Your extraordinary way

Leaves me with nothing to say

Oh....

Chorus:

My bags are packed and I'm out the door

You tell me never call here no more

Now who in the hell do you think you are

You say I'll never go very far

I close my eyes and drift away

You twist your lies and

Pretend that you don't hear a word that I say

Chorus:

This time it's my way

No more games to play

The only sound you'll hear

Will be my footsteps

I have no regrets

Now I'm gone

This time it's my way

No more games to play

I don't care what you hear

This time it's gonna be my way

All of your words mean nothing to me, they fall away

On deaf ears they're shattered does it really matter

It's time to pay

It's so damn loud I turn away

You were so proud

Take a look in the mirror at who's crying now

Chorus:

All the clouds are grey

There's nothing left to lose

No matter what they say

You always know the news

Their voices shake my sould

As my nights turn bright

And my days get so could

Chorus:

How much more do I have to give

You assume to much that I'm like him

Remember why you looked at me

Fact or fiction what do you see

And I can never say enough

And I can't seem to give enough

Chorus:

Did you think that I was perfect

Did you ever have faith in me

Do you question all the answers

What little there's left to believe

Don't you know that you're perfect

Just like me

How much more do I have to take

You assume too much that I might break

Remember why, why you chose me

It's midnight now, there's no guarantee

I always tried to make you smile

But I was never worth your while

Chorus:

I thought I was ready

For all your twisted ways

You spin me around

Kept me locked in this maze

Tried to run away

But you always sucked me back in

Been blown away

Caught in a game that I just can't win

Chorus:

You're all alone in the streets at night

Trying to make it through this crazy world

You're looking for a friend to call

But all your bridges have been burned

Now things are getting hot for you

And your body's getting oh so cold

Now what you gonna do

But listen to all that you've been told

No you never listen cause you're always right

You're always first to start a fight

Now you run away making alibis

Hearing voices in your head tonight and they say

Chorus:

Where you gonna run to Molly

When no one's there to catch you fall

Don't you think you should be sorry

But I can tell you're not at all

You really messed it up now Molly

And no one's there to take the fall

I really think you should be sorry

But I can tell you're not at all

You're running wild and getting high

Trying to make it through your lonely world

You're looking back on your life

And how you've got no place to turn

The pain is beating down on you

And you're thinking you might end it all

But you can't bring yourself to leave

Your baby's just began to crawl

Now your last chance is to turn around

and face up to your past

Cause you know you can't escape

From your troubles and lies

The truth is straight ahead

So tell me

Chorus

Tell me why did you move so fast and fall so low

Seems to me you're the last one to listen first one to know

And no one could fill this hole inside your crazy head

Though we tried now remember all the things we said

Where you gonna run where you gonna hide

Nowhere to sleep to relax your mind

Where you gonna run where you gonna hide

There's no escape from the voices inside

Chorus

You're like the change in my pocket

A faded picture in a locket

Why did you deceive me

When things got turned around

Like a finger in a socket

And there's no way to stop it

I just can't believe

The way you tore me down

Chorus:

You keep smiling to my face

And what you said behind my back

Is simply out of place

That second face you showed me

Turned me inside out

My front door never locked it

Still you always looked for a profit

And whatever you needed

I always came thru

Do you remember your bail, How I copped it

How you paid me back really topped it

I just can't believe

The way you took me down

Chorus:(2x)

You're simply out of place

You're simply out of place

That second face you showed me

Turned me inside out

You're simply out of place

That second face you showed me
