2000 Light Years Away
I sit alone in my bedroom staring at the walls I've been up all night long, my pulse is beating, my love is yearningChorus: I hold my breath and close my eyes and-- Dream about her Cause she's 2000 light years away She holds my malakite so tight so-- Never let go Cause she's 2000 light years away Yes away
I sit outside and watch the sunrise Look out as far as I can I can't see her but in the distance I hear some laughter We laugh together (chorus)
One For The Razorbacks
Juliet's trying to find out what she wants But she don't know Experience has got her down Well look this direction I know it's not perfection It's just me I wanna bring you up again nowChorus: Cause I'm losing what's left of my dignity A small price to pay to see that you're happy Forget all the disappointments you have faced Open up your worried world and let me in
Juliet's crying Well now she's realizing love can be Filled with pain and distrust I know I am crazy and a bit lazy But I will try to bring you up again somehow (chorus) (instrumental)
Juliet's crying Well now she's realizing love can be Filled with pain and distrust I know I am crazy and a bit lazy But I will try to bring you up again somehow (chorus)
Christie Road
Staring out of my window Watching the clouds roll slowly by My friends are gone I've got nothing to do So I sit here patiently Watching the clock tick so slowly Gotta get away or my brains will explodeChorus: Give me something to do to kill some time Take me to that place that I call home Take away the strains of being lonely Take me to the tracks at Christie Road
See the hills from a far Standing on my beat up car The sun went down and the night fills the sky Now I feel like me once again As the train comes a rolling in Smoke my boredom gone Slap my brains up so high (chorus) Mother stay out of my way Of that place we go We'll always seem to find our way To Christie Road Mother stay out of my way Of that place we go We'll always seem to find our way To Christie Road If there's one thing that I need That makes me feel complete So I go to Christie Road It's home It's home
One Of My Lies
When I was younger I thought that the world circled around me But in time I realized I was so wrong My immortal thoughts turned into just dreams of a dead future Was a tragic case of my realityDo you think you're indestructable and no one can touch you? Well I think that you're disposable and it's time you knew the truth Cause you're just one of my lies You're just one of my lies
Why does my life have to be so small And death is forever And does forever have a life to call it's own Don't give me an answer cause you only know as much as I know Unless you've been there once but I hardly think so
80
My mental stability reaches it's bitter end And all my senses are coming unglued Is there any cure for this disease someone called love No as long as there are girls like youEverything she does questions my mental health It makes me lose control, I wanna hurt myself If anyone can hear me slap some sense in me But you turn your head and I end up talking to myself Anxiety has got me strung out and frustrated So I lose my head or I bang it up against the wall
Sometimes I wonder if I should be left alone Or lock myself up in a padded room I sit and spew my guts out to the open air Cause no one wants to hear a drunken fool
Everything she does questions my mental health It makes me lose control, I just can't trust myself If anyone can hear me slap some sense in me But you turn your head and I end up talking to myself Anxiety has got me strung out and frustrated So I lose my head or I bang it up against the wall
I do not mind if this goes on Cause now it seems I'm too far gone I must admit that I'm enjoying myself 80 please keep taking me away Away...
Everything she does questions my mental health It makes me lose control, I just can't trust myself If anyone can hear me slap some sense in me But you turn your head and I end up talking to myself Anxiety has got me strung out and frustrated So I lose my head or I bang it up against the wall
Android
Hey old man in women's shoes I wonder if he knows I think he's crazy When he was young did he have dreams of wearing women's shoes and being crazyChorus: It makes me wonder when I grow to be that age Will I be walking down the street begging for your spare change? Or will I grow that old? Will I still be around? The way I carry on I'll end up six feet underground And waste away
When the old man was in school Did the golden rules make him go crazy Or did he hide away behind a wall and smoking dope It's crazy (chorus)
And it seems so frightening Time passes by like lightning Before you know it you're struck down I always waste my time on My chemical emotions It keeps my head spinning around And waste away
No One Knows
Why should my fun have to end For me it's only the beginning I see my friends begin to age A short countdown to their endChorus: Call me irresponsible Call me habitual But when you think of me Do you fill your head with schemes? Better think again cause no one knows
I don't want to cause no harm But sometimes my actions hurt Is there something I should find To make plans for forever (chorus)
Call me irresponsible Call me habitual But when you think of me (does it seem like all your memories faded?) Do you fill your head with schemes Better think again cause no one knows
I don't...
Who Wrote Holden Caufield?
A thought burst in my head And I need to tell you It's news that I forethought Why's it just a dream that happened long ago I think I just forgot Well it hasn't been the first time And it surely (?)Chorus: When I say there's a boy who faults his world and now he's getting lazy There's no motivation and frustration makes him crazy He makes a plan to take a stand but always ends up sitting Someone help him before he is gonna end up quitting
I shuffle through my mind To see if I can find The words I left behind Why's it just a dream that happened long ago Well it hasn't been the first time And it surely (?) (chorus)
Words I Might Have Ate
Now it seems I can't keep my mind above you My brain drifts back to better days we been through Like sitting on the tops of the school ground The love I bitched about I finally found But now it's gone And I take the blame But there's nothing I can do but take the pain Why?Now I dwell on what you remind me of A sweet young girl who sacrificed her love As for me I am blind without a cause And now I realized what I have lost It was something real that I could have had Now I play the fool who's stable soul's gone bad Why?
Tell me what're the words I might have said It's pumping pressure deep inside my head Was it bad enough to be too late? Just tell me the words I might have ate The words I might have ate But now it's gone And I take the blame But there's nothing I can do but take the pain Why?
