I'm past the point of returning
For you I'm ruined and broken There is no way of me turning You've got my heart in the open I see it shrink in the distance In the glow of your glory And I never will miss this Bottom line of the story I see the ocean come crashing Under lavender skies I see clouds come flashing Now tell me, who am I? Your're the air that I'm breathing While I'm lying there sleeping You're the cool of the evening Now you got me believing, Singing... Trainwreck, I'm a trainwreck for Trainwreck, I'm a trainwreck Trainwreck. I'm a trainwreck for You (Oh lord. yes I am) Trainwreck, I'm a trainwreck for Trainwreck, I'm a trainwreck Trainwreck. I'm a trainwreck for You (Oh lord. yes I am) I'll kiss it all with a farewell Goodbye, how you doing And let it echo in stairwells All these songs of my ruin Now watch me climb my own cross Without a loss for these words As I motion a moment's silence Let it fly with the birds All else I got without you Is mucha ado about nothing I'd rather stand by you gone Than on the throne of another You had me all from the start I count it lost every part I'll sing it out in the dark You've got a grip on my heart Trainwreck, I'm a trainwreck for Trainwreck, I'm a trainwreck Trainwreck. I'm a trainwreck for You (Oh lord. yes I am) (Repeats 4 times) Where could I turn from you The darkest nights, you know you'd find a way What else have I to do What words are there left to say You are the air that I breathe in Here is my heart I give You are all of my reason You are my reason to live Trainwreck, I'm a trainwreck for Trainwreck, I'm a trainwreck Trainwreck. I'm a trainwreck for You (Oh lord. yes I am) (Repeats 5 times) |

CHORUS:
It's undeniable how brilliant you are In an unreliable world you shine like a star It's unforgettable now that we've come this far It's unmistakable that you're undeniable February 5th, Friday morning, purple dawn, Broke a yawn, as I stepped through the fog, like I stepped to a song A moment like a poem, you wish you could hold it I shut my eyes like it's frozen, it's gone when I open It slipped past the clouds right there where it lingered Like your band and a girl could slip through your fingers My feet hit the ground like a beat for the lonely On a path beaten down by the crowds in the morning If only I could touch past the phony If only they were there now to hold me As the questions keep droning You're the only one who stuck it out last night The only other one who caught the other line You're the only one when this world collides The one that I can't deny CHORUS It's my last year here My first class moved to portable 'A' Under construction since summer And it's cold today I can see my breath, and what's left of the west parking lot And all the spaces that we fought And it all seems forgotten, left in the bottom In past piles of rubble, in puddles of rain water That hurt last night when I left like that When I won't come back Speaking my peace to the past I can't help but wonder. who is this wind at my back A whisper to walk on, come on from all that You're the only one who stuck it out last night The only other one who caught the other line You're the only one when this world collides The one that I can't deny CHORUS How am I gonna take it away in this winter wind You found me on a summer breeze How am I gonna run away when the autumn breaks Now that you found me in the spring Come on and sing it out CHORUS x2 |

Yesterday I was sitting. recalling. reminiscing
Trying to remember whenever there was nobody listening Before the hugging and the kissing, the booing and the hissing All I had was just a vision, All I had was my ambition Your love without condition Kept me swinging when I'm missing My eyes upon the prize Kept me striving for the mission When I was down for the count, falling out of commission I can hear you voice now screaming out "son, listen" Get on up, don't give up, though you struck opposition Time to buck all that stuff, find out what's you condition Like a pull in my soul, like keys in my ignition Call you all my commission, my love and my vision and... It doesn't matter if they call me wrong Doesn't matter if they steal my song Doesn't matter if we're all along It doesn't matter at all CHORUS: 'Cause I would take a bullet for you I would take a bullet for you I would cross any line, I'd swim across the sea I would take a bullet for you I would take a bullet for you I would lose it all, I'd take my fall To show you it's for real Remember when we used to flow together back in the park You would slang guitar licks under the stars in the dark You'd say let's grow together as this world falls apart I was holding on to hope but hardly holding a spark All the rhymes that I wrote you'd call dope from the start I'd be like a pure note. like a quote on the mark You'd go to every show and promote from the start From the beginning we've been building much more than this art Remember bearing scars in you car to impart you heart You cared enough to call my bluff through the junk from the start That's why you're holding onto half of my heart You've been there through the times, Through the nights that were dark and.... It doesn't matter if they call me wrong Doesn't matter if they steal my song Doesn't matter if we're all along It doesn't matter at all CHORUS It doesn't matter if they call me wrong Doesn't matter if they steal my song Doesn't matter if we're all along It doesn't matter at all x2 CHORUS |

my girl america is just a youth is this world
her smile is more precious than the sparkle of pearls and though her age reads she's just a young girl the age behind her eyes show the pain that she's swirled through the hand that's been dealt though it's quiet as kept the weight was all felt last night when she slept and as she crept into the dreams of the things of her past seems to have grown so fast, way beyond her own class though they're right there with her, her brothers and her sisters a natural born leader even when her peers dis her my girl, she's at a crossroads, people praying for her some are preying on her magazine ads, sex, drama smoking marijuana, longing for a father to call her, ‘daughter' she's part of a generation longing for reconciliation and this future that they're facing and this poison that they're tasting my girl, i know this love that your chasing my girl america's crying when she's lying on her bed at night i can see that she's screaming when she's dreaming for her freedom my girl america's dying while she's trying just to stop this fight don't stop believing, my girl america boys with hungry eyes have been beating her door telling her that's what she's for, trying to rob at her core then leave calling her a whore, but still she knows there's more i know she knows there's more because there is a voice she can't ignore ‘cause it was founded in the foundations, from the day of her creation in God we trust engraved on the treasures of her nation and the void that the boys can't fill with the tipping of the bottle or the popping of the pill but still most of her friends don't care as they glare ready to drown down the funnel as they frown down the tunnel they stumble and the tumble breaking down into rubble my girl america, stop can't you see it's not the circumstances that determine who you're gonna be but how you deal with these problems and pains that come your way it's for you that i pray with hope for a brighter day and so i say, your deliverance is coming faith like a child from your first birth you left it in the dirt on your worst hurt and i see each tear and every scar the hands that have held you where you are and i can see we've strayed so far a king born under that morning star as a crown of thorns was placed to erase each tear that's touched your face and his palms and sides where pierced with spears he hung in love just to draw you near my girl, out of this whole world can't you see this is where we started |

I meant it all and every part
And every word right from the start I'll never let this love fall in the middle 'Cause you know you broke the hardest part You know you broke the hardest heart I'll never let this love fall in the middle Through it all Fifteen years old in a sea of blank faces Swimming bold against a stream that's mocking as it races In these halls, mountain high under a tangerine sky Crack a smile just to hide the race that's inside Eighteen years old bags packed and a pass for the rail One last look at the past as it drowns in the hail One in a million, still I keep feeling you keep me from a fall A world to lose coming back with you tall Through it all No parachutes or safety nets here One foot on the water to face these fears I'm coming out strong like I can't be wrong I said "Hey, I won't fall in the middle" Twenty five here I am with freshman LPs One life to write one, two years to repeat Behind a curtain, uncertain if an encore's in store Tuck my shoulder like a soldier to knock down the door Thirty something here I'm running with kisses for one girl These scars upon my sleeve still casting out my pearls Throw each stone microphone like it's my last turn With a kiss to the abyss and watch the ripples return Through it all No parachutes or safety nets here One foot on the water to face these fears I'm coming out strong like I can't be wrong I said "Hey, I won't fall in the middle" I said I'm gonna be alright, I'm gonna be alright With you by my side I said I'm gonna be alright, I'm gonna be alright With you through this fight Through it all No parachutes or safety nets here One foot on the water to face these fears I'm coming out strong like I can't be wrong I said "Hey, I won't fall in the middle" I meant it all and every part And every word right from the start I'll never let this love fall in the middle Through it all |

This is my renaissance
This is my one response This is the way I say I love you This is my second chance This is my one romance This is the cutting line On which I stand to show you It happened fast in a flash just this evening I hit the gas, horn blast, brakes screaming Car crash, broken glass, broke my dreaming I hit the dash so fast my ears are ringing My sister's on the right side just slightly leaning I grabbed her hand hard until she started breathing My brothers in the back jaw cracked from the beating The breath in my chest has slipped and I'm sinking Blinking through diamond spider webs of cracked glass I'm trying to remember all the words you said in the past Through the ash, siren screams and red beams I hear you sing softly to me [chorus] I can be the wall when you fall down Find me on the rocks when you break down I heard it in the song when you call out But I got to say now it's got to change This is my broken heart This is my bleeding start This is the way I've come to know you This is my winding road This is my way back home This is the narrow door you know that I will walk through I got a letter today of why she went away She said 'it's better this way, you knew I never could stay' Half empty closets and frames, all that's left to my name As she left in the rain and left my heart on a chain Three years I've built this two face tower for hours on a lease You gave me one yellow flower that said rest in peace IN pieces I've broken open to think too much or just enough Alone to trust midst the rubble and the dust Humbled, it took this much to break down and understand Spent half my life on castles made of sand Tossed in the breakers in the palm of your hand Now I can finally stand [chorus] This is my renaissance This is my one response This is the way I say I love you |

Call me anything but lonely
Through a stone disown me Let'em know I'll never, ever be the same 'Cause they all head on home in the morning Get on gone when it's storming Let'em know I'll never kiss it all away When the morning sun comes You'll know I didn't run 'Cause when the rain came It still never changed Through the laughter and the tears The pain and my fears I'll stay, I'll wait right here [REPEAT ALL] These scars upon my sleeve Won't get the best of me You've had yours and I've had my own defeats This heart upon your sleeve I'll tread gently I won't rush in and run away on a breeze When the morning sun comes You'll know I didn't run 'Cause when the rain came It still never changed Through the laughter and the tears The pain and my fears I'll stay, I'll wait right here |

Like a breath of fresh air and the wind at my back
Toe to heel with strong strides taking miles off the map In this journey called life where I've walked so far Under the heat of your sun and the shine of your stars Step by step I've crept, I've crawled, and I've run Felt the palm of your hand and the barrel of death's gun I ran for my life stood strong through strife From a miscarried life to waiting for my wife like I heard it sung a thousand strong all night long Heard heaven's bell going something long, it's like I've been there in total despair Now I've tasted and I've touched A breath of fresh air 'Cause I do live and I hope and pray For something better and brighter today For something there for something there [CHORUS:] 'Cause I was just a poor boy living in a poor world But you gave me more love that set me free 'Cause I was just a poor boy living in a poor world But you have gave me more love that set me free Like road trips on open roads Windows down sun setting and fresh new clothes Shoes off so you can stop reflect on all these paths unfolding With these staffs that are pulling in this world so controlling It's not always best to take the interstate Sometimes the most is on the windy coast way 'Cause wide is the path pulling astray Narrow is the truth in these days But all the while I hear a still small voice say You climbed the cliffs rocked the desert on your very own Swam the seas, sang the songs with the sweetest tones The beaches you've combed, moons you've roamed the love you've shown But all the while a voice calls you home 'Cause I do live and I hope and pray For something better and brighter today For something there for something there [CHORUS] |

Can this hip hop kid
Make something priceless...timeless Or will it all last a month Can this guitar song Make it worth it when you heard it Or is it all just a front Nineteen years on the road about to go under Felt the breeze of the trees, the roar of your thunder Been a long road wandering for cover Now my cover's blown, I'll find my way back home [CHORUS:] I'm walking away, I hear you call my name I'm walking away (walking away), away from yesterday I'm walking away (walking away), I cannot stay another day Walking away from yesterday [REPEAT ALL] Nineteen years on the road about to go under Felt the breeze of the trees, the roar of your thunder Been a long road wandering for cover Now my cover's blown, I'll find my way back home [CHORUS x2] |

(Chorus:)
I hear a voice crying out from the bellies of their mommas Hold on for today don't worry about tomorrow Though the rains of today seem to fall with sorrow Let me be and we'll see this life for tomorrow I hear a cry going out in the middle of the night Under the scatter of the stars from a voice cracked with fright And as the tears stripe cheeks from pain running south The taste of salt hits the corner of her mouth Resting on tied toungues with no breath left to speak Sick of throwing up with no bread left to eat Tired and confused from disillusionment Sunny days turn to grey and away he went Ripping the hooks out your heart from the promises at dark The words found their mark as the sheets came apart Every spoken word broken As he flipped you a token Kiss on the cheek as his feet found the open door What's in store for you he didn't question Shook his burden to the floor to leave you guessing About the future and what it will unfold But you're still standing there rockin' it so bold like (CHORUS x2) Holding on these songs of hope I cannot sing them without you Holding on, holding on You can't just point a finger and say it's alright Make a trip downtown and put it out of sight Because two came together so strong one night And two wrongs don't make one right Giving a voice to the voiceless saying it's choiceless 'Cause they're priceless my princess I feel the kicks and the churns give me a turn And a shot at this world to fight the fight To beat my plight and let my light shine In this dark time with all its ways of wearing crime And let this world drown in these ultrasounds Hearing this heart beats speak sweet so profound From beat down to higher ground Where hope abounds with love that astounds Les Miserables this ain't no miserable daughter Calling you Cossette 'cause God will be your father (CHORUS x2) Holding on these songs of hope I cannot sing them without you Holding on, holding on |

You woke the morning up
Running off my darkest night The longest fight I've seen Here goes a chance I know Cashing in on all my chips Let all my ships come fly These days, a little bit longer than the last And all of these ways, a little bit stronger than the past And your light, found my bottle in the night Gave me second life, you kept me in this fight CHORUS: And I won't back down I won't turn around and around And I won't back down Doesn't matter what comes crashing down I'm still gonna stand my solid ground You found me once and for all I laid it down in the sinking ground The hopeless undertow Singing out the gentle sound Rattling through my smoking screens My broken dreams last night These days, a little bit longer than the last And all of your ways, a little bit stronger than the past And all of your light, found my bottle in the night You kept me in this fight, you gave me second life CHORUS And I sing Hallelujah ripped through my veins I heard the hammer drop My blood in the rain Hallelujah came like a train When all is lost All is left to gain CHORUS x2 Hallelujah |
