he walks alone (he walks alone)
broken away
from the backstabbing friends that nearly got the best of him
and he’ll try
to put the pieces of his life back together again
but every time he tries, oh every time he tries
he’s met by

deceit and by people who don’t give a damn about
anyone but themselves
can’t help but wonder if he’ll ever recover
if he’ll stand up for himself

now through the halls (now through the halls)
through the crowd of people undetermined as friends or foes
he starts to think
well will I brush the dirt off of my chest
should I ever fall again
or will the laughing faces and piercing eyes
become all too much to take
I hope he grabs them by the throat and calls them out
on all their own mistakes

deceit and by people who don’t give a damn about
anyone but themselves
can’t help but wonder if he’ll ever recover
if he’ll stand up for himself

Stand up for Yourself

Six Loaded Reasons

Well I’ve got six loaded reasons to know
and if it’s cause you think you’re too good then just say so
never dreamed of the day I’d ever see you go

you better speak up this is your chance
I’ve got my finger on the trigger your end is in my
hands tonight – you’re running out of time

lie, fight, scream, seem
like everything is fine
until we look into the sky, I see your eyes
and it’s clear to see they’re overcome with tears
I fear what I’m about to hear
that the end of us is near, it’s bitter sweet
and it’s goodbye from you to me
you to me
from you to me
you to me
goodbye from you to me

find him quick sweetheart hold on tight
cause if I hear one more false truth
I’ll blow away your lies
never thought this would be the way we’d
say goodbye

I really hope he was worth all of this
I’m gonna love to see his face
be the only one to miss you and
the lies you’ve tried this time

lie, fight, scream, seem
like everything is fine
until we look into the sky, I see your eyes
and it’s clear to see they’re overcome with tears
I fear what I’m about to hear
that the end of us is near, it’s bitter sweet
and it’s goodbye from you to me
you to me
from you to me
you to me
goodbye from you to me

letters burned and lessons learned
I’m done with all the pain and hurt
you’ve caused cause something’s got to give
and I can’t take much more of this

Breakdown

find the beauty
in this collapse
we struggled to hold on
we faded way too fast
you never cared at all
i see this at last
ill burn my love for you
with the dropping of this match

analyze just what you
thought it was we had
dont try crying
cause i wont be coming back
(breakdown)
see yourself as inner turmoil attacks
don’t try crying cause I won’t be coming back
breakdown
tissues and issues sprawled out across your floor
in the corner sits the shirt he’d left
just days before
now you see yourself and you’re all too unsure
well sticks and stones led to broken bones
but your words won’t hurt me anymore

breakdown…. breakdown

analyze just what you
thought it was we had
dont try crying
cause i wont be coming back

see yourself as inner turmoil attacks
don’t try crying cause I won’t be coming back
breakdown

Captain's Lament

the captain glared
across the monsoon
as he held his hand
signalling the crew

boys were gonna
get out of this place
im gonna find a way
out of this maze

the darkness lowered
its evil eye
as the ship rose
to avoid demise
the waves were so dark
and lacking of life
but the captain assured
we're gonna get by

were gonna find our lighthouse
i promise you we will
theres no ocean too deep
no waves too high
in all my years of sailing
theres never even been a fear
our lives may be on the line now
but were gonna get out of here

the waves grew angry
captain clawed at the map
held steady his compass
and plotted the attack
the house of light
must be right over here
heres the plan boys
lets get out of here

the crew tried
to man their post
but their spirits
began to crack
captain its really
one hell of an idea
but if we sink this plan
there's no turning back...

Rescue Me

well throw away
the keepsakes of you and I
the stories and the alibis
that break me down each and every night

in my dreams I’ll break free
from this painful misery
and rescue me into the sky
give me the chance to stay alive

you play it safe
it’s so easy to run away
and play these petty little games
that bring me down every single day

in my dreams I’ll break free
from this painful misery
and rescue me into the sky
give me the chance to stay alive

and rescue me tonight…
rescue me tonight

and I only wish you knew what you put me through
I wish you knew what you put me through

Childhood's End

welcome to the real life
its not your childhood dream
you’re just a little boy
in this grand old scheme
you thought you could
become a star
you thought you could
rule the world

I give you realities
best prized problems
and don’t even try
you know you cant solve them
you might not know it
but you’ll sure as hell show it
you just lost your best friend
welcome to childhood's end

I’d never go and I’d never show
and I never sought what I never been taught
I never cried with such a dry eye
life makes no sense at
never at once will we all understand
why are we here and what is god's plan
spend our lives fighting for our views
but no one will agree--die without a use

of all the times that I ever did try
it never crossed my mind we really might die
it makes no sense its a doomed romance
welcome to childhoods end

now let me tell you
what you don't wanna hear
I’m gonna threaten you with things
you never thought you'd fear
and as I watch you dying
alone tear soaked crying
I’m gonna laugh in your face
make you feel like a disgrace
I’ll end your great nights
and make your memory colder
I’ll wrinkle your skin
watch you wilt a little older

pardon me I’m reality
it aint much of a mystery
didn’t you ask for misery?

thought I’d never go and I’d never show
and I never sought what I never been taught
I never cried with such a dry eye
life makes no sense at

never at once will we all understand
why are we here and what is god’s plan
spend our lives fighting for our views
but no one will agree--die without a use
of all the times that I ever did try
it never crossed my mind we really might die
it makes no sense its a doomed romance
welcome to childhoods end

Second Chances Come and Go

so quickly forgotten
like a deep breath
you cant live without it
you don’t even think you do it out of habit
but habits are a hard thing to break

and all I’ve done
is think about you
despite the bitter lies you’ve made
you make me wish
I didn’t breathe at all

no need to worry dear
cause you stole
the air from
my lungs
that night

you ripped my heart from my chest
with that knife
well its deep in my back
thanks for that one too
and I can’t keep these
memories of you
these memories of you

so I guess its just another night
of bad intentions
and bad habits
I just can’t break

suppress these memories
of life and love
and you and me
and how we can’t simply be

suppress these memories
of life and love and you and me
and how we cant simply be

second chances
come and go
and so does trust
you told me so
but justify your means

I’m trying to understand this
but deep down I think you planned it
to put all the blame on me
