[on explicit album version]
Here alone, standing barefoot in our lawn,
Worms squeezing their way through my toes
Tonight that’s how it goes.
I’m at your window kneeling quiet,
I thought at least I’d maybe try to get your head right
Get your heart right
“Let him go!”
(more…)
[on clean album version]
Describe the pain
That choked your reality
It’s all in your mind he said
You have to go graceful dancing
I closed the door on the war I started last Halloween
I’m gonna be fine again
I have to keep graceful dancing
(more…)
Blue does
Everything I’ve never seen before
Blue does everything I’ve never seen before
She’s the answer to the prayer I hadn’t found
She’s the answer to the silence…she’s my sound
Oh what a girl
Oh what a beautiful girl …..she is
(more…)
[Chorus:]
Blue skies
Calling on blue skies
Don’t take them away, boys
Don’t take them away
Cause I’ll never stop
I’ve been to both knees
Raise my hands up to the skies, forgive me
Is something out there far beyond the clouds?
I’m asking help me
Help me to see the world (more…)
Remember how you used to say
“you couldn’t wait till tomorrow for a brand new day”
No fuss when ya had to ride the bus
You could add a little blush
Just to paralyze your school crush
Now your older and the weight upon your shoulder
Makes the world a little colder
No more hidin in the old days
Be strong (more…)
I really need to talk with you
I keep stepping on the vein
That keeps my lifeline flowing thru
I wanna be your perfect stick of glue
But I don’t feel perfect at all
Sad and insecure flaw
I find it hard to hold conversation
I get sweaty sick and I wanna walk away
Its not you its strictly me in this situation
I’m wondering will it ever go away…just go away
(more…)
Losing my control
Here it is the day I have to go
Just sit beside me
I can’t let this show
How sick I feel to leave you so alone
God I’m terrified
We’ve lost respect for decency
When one can turn our world into an ant pile
We run circles, no direction do I see
The dust has blinded you, the dust has blinded me
(more…)
Stop staring, you’re the reason I feel so unhappy all the time
I’ve given you everything I know how
Your standing on the top of my shoe
Keeping me from gaining ground
I’m sorry if you feel like I let you down
Can you tell me what have I done so wrong
To you
Tell me what am I supposed to do
(more…)
Will you think about me,
In time?
It’s never my luck,
So nevermind.
I wanna say your name,
But the pain starts
Again,
It’s never my luck,
So nevermind.
[Chorus:]
I had a dream that you where with me,
And it wasn’t my fault,
You roll me over,
Flipped me over, (more…)
I dreamt you seduced me
Just to walk away
I dreamt you inspired
Then rewired what I say
I dreamt you spread your bottom wings
And pulled me to the bed
But then I woke up feeling nauseous
You danced around my head
[Chorus:]
So tell me
How long, how long have you been down?
How long, how long have you been down?
How long, how long have you been down?
Down
(more…)
I’m like a ghost
I’ll be living in a dirt room
Waiting for the day to be closer
To the window when you’re home
I’ll be standing by your back door
Reaching for the knife in my coat
I’m going to put it to your throat
Sweaty piggy, you’re a bad man
What a fucking sad way to go
Your mother raised you as a joke
I should have wiped away a burden
Use the curtain in the kitchen to choke
You
(more…)
It’s all about steam
It’s all about dreams
It’s all about making the best out of everything
You’ll know when your fine
Cause you’ll talk like a mime
You’ll fall on your face
You get back up and you’re doing fine
“a considerate clown, a preachy preachy machine”
Is one of the sweetest things you would say about me
But I don’t have the time for your distorted esteem
Why are you toying with my mind?
(more…)
A blackout in the room again
A busted lip and broken skin.
I wake up in the bathroom
And dare not bother asking
Why the mirror’s craked and all I see
Are shards of glass inside of me.
There’s voices there to dare me,
My father’s here to scare me.
My mother sits beyond the door she’s
Curled up crying on the floor,
Look at what her son’s done.
