THESE 5 WORDS

THESE 5 WORDS

Why can't I be happy?
Five words haunting my days
I don't know how I got here
And I don't know where I'm going

I've been through the wars
Survived the battles
Scars on my soul to prove it

These five words drive me insane
I'm fine today
Tomorrow I'll overanalyze everything

I've been down on myself
I've been high as a kite
Why can't I be happy?

STORM INSIDE

STORM INSIDE

Life's a lonely road when you know you'll always walk alone
Streets are cold and empty

Just like my bed

Satisfy this need
Rescue me

The storm inside me rages on
Waging war with itself
I can't take it anymore

Silence these doubts
Love me

Life's a barren desert when you know happy is a mirage
Tears are cold and dry
Just like these dreams

ENJOY THE RIDE

ENJOY THE RIDE

I do the things you can’t imagine
I say the things you are afraid to say
I’m everything you’re not
And I’m tearing down your walls

I’m not going to pay for the mistakes of others
Not going to listen to your one-sided stories
Keep the truth straight and open your heart

I know I make you feel things you haven’t before
It’s new and exciting
Intrigued to the max

And I’m only getting started

I’m not going to chase you down
Not going to hang around for a doormat
Match my effort and enjoy the ride

LAST IN LINE

LAST IN LINE

What if we could start over?
Would you learn to love me
Or run me over again?

I will not stand here
I cannot be here
Too much at stake and I'm not dead yet

I swear no one loves me
I could die today and nothing changes
Not a tear shed for my demise
Save your breath, I know you don't care

I'm holding onto shreds of hope that don't exist
Looking back at shadows haunting me
Hoping for poison that brings me down

What if I could live again?
Would I find happiness?
Or would I finish last one more time?

TALKING TO MYSELF

TALKING TO MYSELF

I'd talk to myself, but I wouldn't listen
You stand in your own way and can't see it
I'm my biggest critic and can't breathe
I'd confide in you, but you wouldn't give a shit

Invincible
100 ways to run away
In denial
1,000 ways to bend the truth

Life blows

All the same to you as you blow every guy you meet
Fuck my life
All the same to you as you fuck everyone but me

I'd tell myself I'll be ok, but I haven't been ok in forever

BRICK

BRICK

You're all in or you're getting away from me
Liars, all liars
You’re with me or you’re getting out of my way
Fakes, all fakes

It takes a lot for me to get out of bed
Why keep trying when nothing works?
If I knew now what I knew then
I'd hit you with a brick

Step out of my comfort zone
Only to be reminded of why I stay in it
Take me as I am or take me away

If I could turn back time
I'd hide away forever
It’s taken all of me just to give a damn
