If you leave, where will you go? Before the regret you hold in your heart will start to show If you leave, how will you know? If our ever after ever had a chance to grow Do you dream or do you sleep? Do you pick and choose amongst the jewels for one to keep? Do you wish upon a star? Or does everything just out of reach seem just too far away?
*Nothing seems to change Let alone you won't forget my name Just don't lose what you know Just don't lose what you know When you're so far away
So deep you say And no matter where you go it all ends up the same Do you wish upon a star? Or does everything just out of reach seem just too far away?
*Repeat
What you lose is what you know Where you go is where you grow How near we've come has yet to show We've come so close yet so far away So far away
What did I do to you - so far away What did I do to you - so far away (x2)
This is the story of a girl Who cried a river and drowned the whole world And while she looks so sad in photographs I absolutely love her When she smiles
How many days in a year? She woke up with hope but she only found tears And I can be so insincere Making the promises never for real As long as she stands there waiting Wearin' the holes in the soles of her shoes How many days disappear? You look in the mirror, so how do you choose?
Your clothes never wear as well the next day And your hair never falls in quite the same way You never seem to run out of things to say
This is the story of a girl Who cried a river and drowned the whole world And while she looks so sad in photographs I absolutely love her When she smiles
How many lovers would stay? Just to put up with this shit day after day How did we wind up this way? Watchin' our mouths for the words that we say As long as we stand here waitin' Wearin' the clothes of the souls that we choose How do we get there today? When we're walkin' too far for the price of our shoes
Your clothes never wear as well the next day And your hair never falls in quite the same way You never seem to run out of things to say
This is the story of a girl Who cried a river and drowned the whole world And while she looks so sad in lonely there I absolutely love her When she smiles
And your clothes never wear as well the next day And your hair never falls in quite the same way You never seem to run out of things to say
This is the story of a girl Who cried a river and drowned the whole world And while she looks so sad in photographs I absolutely love her
This is the story of a girl Whose pretty face she hid from the world And while she looks so sad and lonely there I absolutely love her
This is the story of a girl Who cried a river and drowned the whole world And while she looks so sad in photographs I absolutely love her When she smiles
So you're standing on a ledge It looks like you might fall So far down Or maybe you were thinking about jumping Now you could have it all If you learned a little patience For though I cannot fly I'm not content to crawl So give me a little credit Have in me a little faith I want to be with you forever If tomorrow's not too late
*But it's always too late when you've got nothing So you say But you should never let the sun set on tomorrow Before the sun rises today
**If I am Another waste of everything you dreamed of I will let you down If I am Only here to watch you as you suffer I will let you down
So you're walking on the edge And you wait your turn to fall But you're so far gone That you don't see the hands upheld to catch you And you could find the fault In the heart that you've been handed For though you cannot fly You're not content to crawl
*Repeat
**Repeat
So you're standing on a ledge It looks like you might fall
**Repeat
The answers we find Are never what we had in mind So we make it up as we go along You don't talk of dreams I won't mention tomorrow And we don't make those promises that we can't keep
I will never leave you I will not let you down I will never leave you I will not let you down
What I see is what's to be Cartwheels to eternity 'Round and 'round my head she goes In the good dreams though she wears no clothes Took our pictures by the sea The ocean waits to carry me Carry me back home again To where she sleeps I lay my head
Saw her running barefoot But the ground there never touched her feet Watched her in the shadows While the tide came in and claimed our beach We could have made it in the dunes We had it all within our reach But I've got a lot of life to learn And you've got a lot of life to teach
Why do we all end up alone? Why do we always have to find our way back home? Why do we all end up alone? We gather no moss just like a rolling..
What I say is what I mean No definition in between Couldn't make it in the movie scene You couldn't stay on you couldn't stay clean What you wear is who you are The odds are in and you'll go far A penny for your thoughts you'll see A nickel buys you what you need
Saw you on the big show Saw you swinging from the big trapeze Standing on my tip toes while you brushed the dirt from off your knees Should have come as no surprise No one else here did have your drive You got a big white stretch parked right outside But nobody there to share your ride
*Why do we all end up alone? Why do we always have to fine our way back home? Why do we all end up alone? Why do we all end up dead drunk or stoned?
What I know is what I hear The ringing in my ears is clear A monkey's got it made you see Swinging from the vine of a coconut tree
*Repeat Dead drunk or stoned Just like a rolling stone
Shadows they fall on the stage of your own life Trailing behind footsteps There's comfort in ghosts who are no longer with you Hiding behind your death
*I let you down you've lost your taste I'm losing ground, I fall from grace Well just listen, Sometimes
**You gotta set free what you love just to bring it back Would you ever lose me? Would you ever let go for that? And if the love is real, you gotta let yourself go Just to bring it back, sometimes Just to bring it back
Hiding inside my asylum I'm always Hanging on by a thread I can't expect you to respect me until I've Learned to respect myself
I've let you down, You've lost your taste I'm losing ground, I miss your face Well just listen Well just listen, sometimes Sometimes
**Repeat Oh the love you're bringing back
*Repeat You gotta set free what you love just to bring it back Would you ever lose me? Would you ever let go for that? And if the love is real, you gotta teach yourself Just to bring it back, sometimes Just to bring it back Oh the love you're bringing back Oh the love you're bringing back Sometimes Sometimes Just to bring it back You gotta go for a while
*Bobby's in the basement, making his movie He paints a little picture but not to be cheesy He wants this little girl to believe in him easy Bristles to the canvas imagining he feels high
**Inspiration of my art search for light out of the dark All the pictures in my heart lie awake there in my fog This oasis in my arms I approach it with disarm Though it might do me some harm, stop to catch me if I fall
Bobby's in the basement, making his music He never won't stop though not to abuse it If there's some other way that they only would use it He lives another day but they always refuse it
Lacerations of my heart, dropped down in pieces in the dark Mixed the words up on this page, Makes the purple turn to beige
**Repeat
It's just like Bob Dylan says
***Stop depression of my own, walk the only road I know If I am only dreaming, then I am not that far from it Sow the strength that grows from seeds, worship creativity If I am only dreaming, then me and Bob are not that far today So long as I'm young
Bobby's in the basement, making his music
I search the beaches walk the sand I cut my feet on the broken glass Strap the sandals on my feet I'm run down but I still hit the street
**Repeat
It's just like Bob Dylan says
***Repeat So long as I'm young
*Repeat High Inspiration of my art Desperation of my heart
You could be waiting for a day that won't come And you could be so much more than you've become And I have found my feet 257 weeks But you could be waiting for a day that won't come
*You could be waiting for your life to begin And you could be so much more than, than you've been And I have found my feet 257 weeks But you could be waiting for your life to begin
**And it's so sad You're so good and I'm so bad But you won't see me wasting the best thing I've ever had And it's such a shame That I can't tell you anything You won't hear me and still you endear me now, yeah
Hard to see past the window facing forward looking back Over years spent tracing wondering how you left your track Under water breathing burns your lungs and breaks your back And you could be waiting right here for a day that won't come
**Repeat
*Repeat
**Repeat Still you endear me now, yeah Still you endear me now
In my heartsent, my confession, my condolence, You're indefinite, you're incompetent, inconsiderate You're so childish, I will push you Out of what is real, out of my head You can stick and drown at your residence of Disappointments are of yours to come So embrace them, oh my shallow one today
*If I could change anything then I would change everything These bitter days shall remain
I don't ask for your forgiveness I don't care much for your actress That's just you though shallow and selfish So I go now, oh my hollow one today
*Repeat
**You carry your blues behind your eyes Don't flatter yourself, I will survive So carry your blues your own denial Your feathers are gone, you'll never fly
If I could change anything, Then I would wipe the years away If I could change anything Then I would brush the time away *Repeat
*If you would just come back to me I would be so good Put your trust back at me The least I think you should We'll call it my pathology So I misunderstood A bit selfish I should be If I could change I would See it on my face
All I wanted was a friend To look in me to comprehend All I wanted was to fly How could you sit and watch me die? All I wanted was you there Your cruelty was my despair You just killed me, so the story goes
Once upon a time there was a girl Who loved me more than life itself By the duck pond, she said "Carve our names into the bark!" We climbed the tree, I slipped and fell behind Now I'm sorry
*Repeat
All reminds me of your name We sought fortune through the rain Every day and every place Everywhere I kissed you face All the sacrifice in vain How could you put all the blame upon me? That's not fair, So the story goes
Once upon a time we had the moon We had the stars, we were divine Upon my shoulder, she cried Now she hides the faith, she fears She throws herself before her bed of lies She'll be sorry
I drive in the rain with the window open But it's not the same when everything has changed But while you're still near, I'll try anything And I'll say all the things that you said you wanted to hear But the words inside my head are better left unsaid To lie like the ghosts beneath my bed
*Don't you know that I go crazy But I've nothing left to give Though I'll miss you for a while Don't you know that I go crazy But you're on your own tonight Though you know I'll miss your smile
You can't take back, half of what you give And you don't remember, half the life you've lived But while you're still here, I'll do anything And I'll say all the things that you said you needed to hear
*Repeat
The words inside my head Are better than the words I've said As always
I want to crawl inside your womb I want to watch the rose on your cheeks bloom I want to be the face in the moon And watch the stars spin around your room
*All your carefully worded letters All your carefully spoken words
**I will continue to evolve I will continue to revolve around your sun 'Cause you are the only one Who understands, who reaches out with both hands And even while you're fading I'm just shivering and waiting I will continue to evolve I will continue to revolve around your sun 'Cause you are the only one
I want to drink deep from your well I want to be the heart for which you fell I want to be a shooting star Across the heavens to be where you are
*Repeat **Repeat
I want to crawl inside your womb I want to watch the rose on your cheeks bloom
**Repeat
Time missing out You're missing out I'm missing out We're missing out You are the only one...
To watch the leaves grow on the trees with you Is out of question I walk into this summer all alone The usual session You feel your instinct then you act But was it your intention? To leave me down and broken now You've ended our ascension, yeah
I still can feel the beach sand in my shoes Remember When We walked along the ocean's song 'Till blue from black fade in But that was then I learned to live Without you far within I ask you why you're back to try To let me lose again
You brought me here, you wet my taste You disappear without a trace It wasn't me who made the call
*'Cause I wanna be where you sleep Where you laugh, where you breathe And I hate to say, still I sway Brown your eyes gone away
Should I feel some closure I deserve If that at least And would you be so kind to show reasons For your release You woke me up from a distant past I left behind complete The message that you sent that night Now falls to bittersweet
Was it me, my honesty? You fail to show, I never know It wasn't me who made the call
*Repeat
Was it me, my honesty? You fail to show, I never know You brought me here, you wet my taste You disappear without a trace Did ya think I'd ever lead you wrong? Just know I'll save all of our moments that we are
When I was younger man I hadn't a care Foolin' around, hitting the town, growing my hair You came along and stole my heart when you entered my life Ooh girl you got what it takes wanna make you my wife
Since then I never looked back It's almost like living a dream And ooh I love you
You came along from far away and found me here I was playin' around, feeling down, hittin' the beer You picked me up from off the floor and gave me a smile You said you're much too young, your life ain't begun, let's walk for awhile
And as my head was spinnin' 'round I gazed into your eyes Ooh I want you
Thank you girl for being a friend And shinin' your light in my life 'cause ooh I need you
As my head was comin' round I gazed into your eyes And thought ooh I want you
Thanks again for being my friend And straightenin' out my life 'cause ooh I need you
Since then I never looked back It's almost like livin' a dream Ooh I got you
If ever a man had it all It would have to be me And ooh I love you
Here's another day, she waits and pulls herself away at just the right moment to save her face I watch the time go ticking down, the waters falling on the ground I catch myself and try to speak with grace you needed just enough anger, to get you through the door and you got just enough honesty, to make you want a little more
I wish for nothing but the rain, to fall and wash away everything that I've done wrong, find a way to make you strong if only for another day
when I'm all alone, just me and my ghosts standing three deep, just like sentries at their post they make sure I remember, just a little more than most they make sure that I understand the consequence of past
when you see me chasing daydreams and you know that I'm not there I'm not the one who sits across from you, who, returns your stare and I watch as you grow quiet like you always did and I wait to get what I deserve its the part that doesn't die that makes it hurt...
How long I have wanted This dream to come true And as it approaches I can't believe I'm through I've tried, oh I've tried For a life, yes a life I thought I knew
Oh it's the price we gotta pay And all the games we gotta play Makes me wonder if it's worth it To carry on Cause it's a game we gotta lose Though it's a life we gotta choose And the price is your whole life Until it's gone
Time seems to have frozen But the mind can't be fooled As the days pass I discover Destiny just can't be ruled Hard times, oh hard times For the price, yes the price I thought I knew
Oh it's the price we gotta pay And all the games we gotta play Makes me wonder if it's worth it To carry on Cuase it's a game we gotta lose Though it's a life we gotta choose And the price is your whole life Until it's gone Until it's gone
Oh it's the price we gotta pay And all the games we gotta play Makes me wonder if it's worth it To carry on Cuase it's a game we gotta lose Though it's a life we gotta choose And the price is your whole life Until it's done Oh it's the price we gotta pay And all the games we gotta play Makes me wonder if it's worth it To carry on Cause it's a game we gotta lose Though it's a life we gotta choose And the price is your whole life Until it's done
