1. _ Perfect Sense
It's been so long since the first day
I met you girl and since then
We've been to heaven and been through hell
We've seen life in each others skin and through each others eyes you know me better than i know myself
I thought of you today and wondered why
I'd torn down what we'd built
I checked my memories felt guilty for the way
I felt i know you think
I think i know everything but that's so far from the truth
Only thing i really know is there's so much for me to learn from you
Don't know the reason why it took me so long to see that
In a less than perfect world you make perfect sense to me
Don't know the reason why it took me so long to see that in a picture perfect world you'd always be standing next to me
I've seen that picture too, the one you said you painted in your head a mural of a perfect home you and i a family and friends
Can't change the past can't change what's passed so i guess there's just one thing to do
Let you know just how i feel and ask to build a new future with you
No need to look down you know if you fall that i will catch you
I'll be your safety net and always remember i'd die for you and no one else but you
I will be here for you i will always be here for you

2. _ Growing Old
I'm gonna tell you what you don't want to hear
You're gonna hear the truth
You're gonna find out how life can be so unfair
Don't let them try to take control of you
Stand tall and walk with pride
Believe in yourself and good things will come to you
Live your life how you feel is right
Weigh the consequences and think before you do
Before you know it your youth is gone
Responsibility has found its way to you
So while you're still young take full advantage
Pack your days with memories to bring along with you
I know that when i look back it will always bring a smile to my face
And as i look to the future i see so many more that i can hardly wait
Growing old doesn't mean that the fun has to end
We all grow old now's the time to let the good times begin
Don't let your life slip by
I know there's still a million things
I want to try before i die
The time has come to seize the day
Do what you want and do it now tomorrow may be too late

4. _ Open Your Eyes
When i was younger i used to wait anticipate
Mark my calendar on the release date
So i'd be the first to hear the brilliant things you'd say
I'd skip luch for a week
Save up all my money to be the first kid on the block to own your brand new cd
Open your eyes open your eyes open your eyes
Who's gonna show me how to laugh
Open your mouth open your mouth open your mouth
Who's gonna show me how to
Who's going to show me how to laugh?
Who's going to jerk tears from my eyes
I've memorized every last word and every note
So now who's going to write the songs
I wish the songs i always wish i wrote that song
So did you think you didn't matter anymore
That you weren't changing people's lives
Well you're wrong such poignant words from you
I heard thoughts and emotions that were worth so much more than a cheap slogan on a t-shirt

5. _ Shine
Can you feel it do you hear that sound
Thunder of the whole world crumbling down around you
Deep in skeptic faces think that you might drown
Gotten high on anxiety and now you want to come down
Someplace to hide someplace to go
Will you ever find it how will you ever know
Don't want to give up hope but it's getting hard to cope
Holding on by a threat to keep from hanging by a rope
It's not like you've got time working on your side
Simple fact is that we are all eventually going to die
One day you're feeling fine the next day you might lose your fucking mind
So while you've got the time, take a moment out of everyday to shine
Reality's a blur you're in a dismal state
And you're pretty sure your brain is on the take
Your desires can't be satiated even the simplest task seems compliated a thin line lies between camp beautiful and the circus freaks
How can it possibly be some slip so easy
From the ranks of the sane to the files of insanity
There will be those who will do what they can to smash your dreams
The miracles in your life are closer than they seem
Overcoming fears in life a clich |
6. _ Slander
Maybe i shouldn't have said it of course
I was too quick to judge
Words swiftly spoken may be unrefined
I didn't know optimism was a crime
Hey i have got enough problems
Don't need extra baggage from you pointless games and taxing headtrips unfortunate side effects of your friendship
I may have slipped won't happen again my legs are beneath me now
For the last time cut down from behind
I will be ready next time
It's no big deal
I've gotten used to being let down
I just didn't think that
I would ever be let down by you
Your antics are always expected
Passed off as being your nature
Get away with murder |
7. _ Breakdown
How many hits to the head will it take |
8. _ Short Fuse
Sometimes this world it really gets to me
All of the big heads my nerves get tested
Just when i think it's gotten the best of me
I save my worst for last
My fuse it ends i reach the final draw a sudden impulse
It's time to break skulls and you don't really want to be the straw that breaks the camel's back
I see the edge and i just got to push it
I don't know what comes over me
I feel the trigger and i just got to push it
It's temporary insanity
Now i got the feeling now i've got the itch
Like an obsession i need aggression
You turn it on and i can't turn off the switch to stop the current's flow
Step in my mind if you want to come with me
Were going for a ride a mental landslide
No destination i just want to see how far we can go
You can run you can hide
You can stay right by my side
You can run you can hide
I'm gonna swallow someone else's pride
No regrets no remorse for me no way i've felt compassion it's a distraction and tell me just who the hell are you to say who is wrong or right
Make a choice pay attention or pay the price
Can't live forever it's now or never
Listen up and pay heed to this advice
I'm going to lose my fucking head tonight
So watch your back tonight

9. _ Watch Over Me
I dedicate my life as i dedicate this song
So your loving memory will never be gone
Your message and your song will continue on
The positive that you created shall never be undone
You taught me everything i know and everything i do
Taught me how to live my life and to always be true
True to your friends and your family
True to your heart be who you want to be
You'll forever be my mentor forever be my friend

10. _ How Do You Feel Now?
What would you say if i said i don't want you anymore?
What would you think if i left your bags outside of the door?
How would you feel if i knew all about your little lies?
What would you do if i saw right through your disguise?
You better start thinking what you'd say think feel and do

11. _ Great Expectations
When i look up at these hollowed walls of high achievement and storied victories
I can hear irony laughing |
12. _ Election Year
Election time time for red white and blue baby baby kissing and photo opportunities
Meet your candidate ivy league white trash prim and proper nice teeth for the t.v.
Here to bring you to the promised land with a porcelain smile and empty promises
Sure he'll take your campaign contributions but you can bet he'll never put your money where is mouth is
Did you go out and vote today?
Do you really think it made a change?
How did you feel when you walked away?
Like everything will be the same?
One thing is evident one thing is clear
Nothing gets done in an election year
Now let's play watch your candidate kiss ass to the corporate brass

13. _ Picture This
Everyday a battle is fought
Today i was reminded somehow i had forgot
Everyday a lesson is taught
Real estate's important and human life is not
Is all of this bloodshed worth an outdated plan laid by ancient hands
Such a crucial piece of earth
Take a look again it's a fucking piece of dirt
Can anyone show me what's wrong with this picture?
Something definitely looks out of place to me
It's clearly out of focus somebody broke us
But here's where the joke is nobody provoked us
We're broken and no one's to blame but us ourselves and we
We can't agree so we war egos declare young soldier be scared
But what are we fighting for
Something that's nothing that we can afford
We glory ourselves in our past |
14. _ Ask Yourself
A fallen solider,
Another casualty to the gravity of everyday living,
Life can be so unforgiving for those opposed to all of the rules
I never thought the first gunshot
I'd hear in my home town would hit so close to home
Family left to take the pain although he took the blow
Ask yourself would it be easier if there was somebody to blame
And ask yourself would it make more sense if there was someone to hate
Like father like son born to lose a war no one ever prepared him to fight
It isn't wront it isn't right count your lucky fucking stars tonight
A younger brother who now takes pats on the back that only prolongs the grief
Would you believe somehow life goes on after a tragedy
A penny for your thoughts an insight into your demise
What was it like to see the world through your tormented eyes
Would we find a tortured soul if we'd taken off your disguise
Or would we still be left with all these
Wise show me someone to blame
Give me someone to hate
