"Washing the World Away"

When will this all be over
This room keeps closing in on me
Not much outside that I care to see
This pain could all be over, if I just blinked an eye
Keep holding on to some sign that stops me from...

Washing the world away hey yeah hey yeah
Washing the world away

Why can't I get through today
Feelin' blind with only me to blame
Still I find I try to hide
Maybe in time I'll find my way.

I find that no one understands me I feel so alone
Does anyone feel the way I do?
This pain could all be over if I just blinked an eye
Keep holding on to some sign that stops me from....

Washing the world away hey yeah hey yeah
Washing the world away

So how can I get through today
Feelin' blind with only me to blame
Still I find I try to hide, Maybe in time I'll find my way.

I don't think I'll make it through today
Feelin' blind with only me to blame
Still I try to hide
Maybe this time I'll find my way.

"Already Gone "

I will not leave a letter nothing at all
I'm sure you won't notice that I'm even gone.
I won't break the silence we've shared for so long
I will be strong.

I will not leave a letter nothing at all
I'm sure you won't notice that I'm even gone.
Why did I stay here I stayed for so long, when we're so far gone
I feel so stupid for taking this fall
I should have seen it, I've known all along
I won't break the silence we've shared for so long
I will be strong.

What can you possibly want from me
Can't you see, I'm already gone
With everything we thought we'd be
I still don't feel sorry for this loss.

I will not waste a moment thinking these thoughts
Forgetting comes easy I never cared at all.
Hurt became hate now I'm feeling the strain,
There's just too much pain.
Fell into pieces and got swept away
Left all our pictures in the sun to fade
I won't break the silence we've shared for so long
I will be strong.

You don't have to say anything at all
I won't stop you from walking away
You know I expected so much more from you.

"Someday"

Someday I'll talk about it
One day I'll mention it to you.
Someday I'll be over this and strong like you.
I am never changing, I can feel this way for days and days.
Look you straight in the face and fake my smile.

Take this hurt away and bring back yesterday.
I could say sorry in a thousand ways.
You won't let this be without cutting me.
Can't put this bottle down as I watch this day fade into night.

My blessings - My faults
I've learned all the lessons that cannot be taught.
Any abuses that I've brought
No more excuses, I want a new start.

With all our lies there's no wondering why things
aren't working out anymore,
But now I'm feeling fine flying higer - got the chance to start again

-Oh
Someday I'll talk about it
One day I'll mention it to you.
Someday I'll be over this and move on like you.
Move on like you.

I'm ready to go, I'm ready to leave.
Why don't you answer the radio?
I'm ready to go, just watch me leave
It's so hard to see when I'm on my way down.

"Invincible"

I memorized all the words for you
But if you only knew how much that's just not like me.
I wait up late every night,
Just to hear your voice but you don't know that nothing like me.

Hey yeah I wonder have you already figured out
All these things that I try to hide
All this time I've been hoping you won't find out
All these things I hide on the inside...

[Chorus]

I can't be held responsible
This is all so new to me.
Just when I think I'm invincible...
You come and happen to me.

[Chorus]

I want to make sure everything is perfect for you
but if you only knew that's not like me to follow through.
Maybe even give up on these dead-end dreams
just to be with you
but you don't know how that's nothing like me.

Hey yeah I wonder have you already figured out
All these things that I try to hide
All this time I've been hoping you won't find out
All these things I hide on the inside...

[Chorus]

I can't be held responsible
This is all so new to me.
Just when I think I'm invincible...
You come and happen to me.

[Chorus]

Now I'm waking up, I finally had enough
Of this wreck of a lifetime, I never thought I'd survive it.
Now I'm taking back, all I gave up for that
Leave my pain behind, wash these stains from my life
Just when I thought I was lost you came and made it all okay.

^back to top^

Looking back at me I see that I never really got it right
I never stopped to think of you
I’m always wrapped up in things I cannot win
You are the antidote that gets me by
Something strong like a drug that gets me high

What I really meant to say
Is I’m sorry for the way I am
I never meant to be so cold
Never meant to be so cold

What I really meant to say
Is I’m sorry for the way I am
I never meant to be so cold
Never meant to be so

Cold to you, I’m sorry about all the lies
Maybe in a different light
You can see me stand on my own again cause now I can see
You are the antidote that got me by
Something strong like a drug that got me high

What I really meant to say
Is I’m sorry for the way I am
I never meant to be so cold
Never meant to be so cold

I never really wanted you see
The screwed side of me that I keep
Locked inside of me so deep it always seems to get to me
I never really wanted you to go
So many things you should have known
I guess for me there’s just no hope
I never meant to be so cold

What I really meant to say
Is I’m sorry for the way I am
I never meant to be so cold
Never meant to be so cold

Can you feel it crush you
Does it seem to bring the worst in you out
Theres no running away from
These things that hold you down

Do they complicate you
Because they make you feel like this
Of all the colors that you shine
This is surely not your best

Are surely not the best
Colors that you shine
Surely not the best
Colors that you shine

I know you feel alone, yea
No one else can figure you out
But don't you ever turn away from
The ones that held you down

They love to save you
Don't you know they would love to see you smile
But these colors that you shine
Are surely not your style

Are surely not the best
Colors that you shine
Surely not the best
Colors that you shine

I know your feeling like your lost
But you should know these colors that are shinin' are
I know your feeling like your lost
You feel you've drifted way to far
Did you know these colors that shinin' are

Surely not the best
Colors that you shine
Surely not the best
Colors that you shine
Surely not the best (I know your feeling like your lost)
Colors that you shine (But you should know these colors that are shinin' are)
Surely not the best (I know your feeling like your lost)
You feel you drifted way to far
Did you know these colors that shinin' are

If only you could watch me fall
I cannot feel it anymore
The soul you cut the soul you adore
Cannot feel you anymore
Cause you've run through me with the destructive force
I think somehow I gotta see it straight
I gotta get you out of me
But I cannot get through to you

See me I'm down and I get deeper with every breath
See me I'm over the edge farther with every step
See me I'm doen and I get deeper with every breath
Standing over the edge I'm taking my last breath

How I feel like I'm starless
I'm ready to fade now
And how I feel like I'm starless
I'm hopeless and grayed out
Somehow I feel like I'm starless
I'm ready to fade now
And now I feel like I'm starless
I'm ready to burn out

I can transcend you and mentally bend you
But I can't handle the shit that I'm into
I have been blinded and always reminded
Of the things I've wanted but I never could find
I am a part of a world that I hate I wish the
End would come faster my world's a disaster
Can't you see that I;m down and I'm drowning
And I can't keep my head above my wake

I gotta get you out of my veins
I gotta get you out of my blood
I gotta get you out of my scene
I gotta get you out of me

What I'm really trying hard to get down to words
Is the way I fit into this world
Things I survived pushed me to the darkeer side
Because of life as it was the life that was
Yours should've never been mine
But I never could take anymore of this
Cause I'm always gonna get down to the floor
It's a cold gun that I kiss
'Cause I cannot break anymore

Somehow I feel like I'm starless
I'm ready to fade now
That's how I feel when I'm starless
I'm hopeless and grayed out
Somehow I feel like I'm starless
I'm ready to burn out oh
Now I'm starless

I've been changin' but you'll never see me now
(I've been changin' but you'll never see me now)
Now I'm blaming you for everything

No more holding it in
How many years can I pretend
Nothing never goes the way it should
No more sitting in this place
Hoping you might see it my way
Cause I don't think you ever understood
That what I'm looking for are the answers
To why these questions never go away

[Chorus]
I'm so far away
I've been changin' but you'll never see me now
I'm so far away
Now I'm blaming you for everything

No more waiting for the end
Of every day that I will spend
Wishing that I only had a choice
No more pushing you away
Cause I will be busy watching things going my way
Never looking back on this anymore
Because what I'm looking for are the answers
To why these questions never go away

I've been changin' but you'll never see me now
Now I'm blaming you for everything

Hey hey watch me wave
Goodbye to yesterday
Nothing left in my way
Hey hey I've been saved
With sun shining on my pain
Getting me through this day
Hey hey watch me wave
Goodbye to yesterday
Nothing left in my way
Feels so good to say

Yea it's what I've become that I fear the most I never thought it could get so wrong.
I believe there's a part of me that I cannot beat.
A part of me that I can't defeat.
The side of me that just doesn't belong.

Judging by the weight of my fucked up world I think maybe I should take a step back from this.
I need to quit pushing, just let it roll.

The waves that you made push me, push me.
The things that you say push me, push me.
The waves that you made push me, push me.
So I'll play God now and blow you, blow you.

Yea, it's what you've become that I took today.
You never thought I could be so strong.
You can see there's a part of me that you cannot beat.
And part of you will always remember me.
When you look around and you are so alone.

Judging by the weight of my fucked up world I think maybe I should take a step back from this.
But you had to keep pushing so I let it go.

Now that you pused me I bed you wish we could have made things better.
And now you see that I could be another, would be another death trend setta

I built my life like my bike on a rigid frame
So nothing bends it only breaks into pieces and pieces
I waited for hope to arrive but it never came
Leaving me with only pain inside
I'm going off the deep end

Holding on is harder than it seems
When you're reaching for so much more
Seems so much easier to just give in
When you're reaching for so much more

Another wasted Saturday so here I stay
Where nothing seems to ever change anyway hey
All this hype about life bein' great
Where's the love for me these days
I'm goin off the deep end

So you found out today your life's not the same
Not quite as perfect as it was yesterday but
When you were just getting in the groove
Now you're faced with something new
And I know it hurts and I know you feel torn
But you never gave up this easily before
So why do you choose today to give it all away

Well it's not so bad y'all
Together we all fall
Just as long we get up we'll stand tall
We shouldn't waste another day
Thinking 'bout the things that we forgot to say

I'm hittin' back y'all
Kickin' these four walls
Just as hard as I can til I can't crawl
I won't waste another day
With all these silly things
Swimmin' in my brain

[Chorus]
There's no giving up now
Do you really want to give this all away
Can't you ever see things in a different way
Somedays
No giving up now
Such a beautiful thing to throw away
You should think things through
Over and over again
All over again

So your scars fade away
You soaked up the pain
A better person 'cause you lived through those days
And now you know what it's like to prove
You can overcome anything that gets to you
Well it's alright
We're sayin' our goodbyes
To the past and everything that ain't right
We won't waste another day
With all these silly things in our way

I know we have given
All that we can give
When there's nothing to lean on
Well, I remember this
All we make of this lifetime
Is always here within
And remembering that's why
We should never give in

So I'm the king of all these things of this mess I have made
Such a waste what a shame my whole life is a fake
Well I'm a bore and I'm sure I'm a thorn inside of you that has torn at you for years
The alcohol the demerol these things never could replace
What a minute with you could do to put a smile on my face
I'm a bore and I'm sure I'm a thorn inside of you that has torn at me for years
I can't get out of this dead skin I can't shed my skin
I'm not sure where to begin why can't I begin again
I can't get under my dead skin I can't shed my skin
Can I sllep 'til then

Phenobarbitol and alocohol these two surely will do
To knock me out keep me down at least a day or two
When I'm awake I can taste how bitter I've become
And it's more than I can bear somedays I pray someone will blow me away
Make it quick but let it burn so I can feel my life fade
Well I'm a waste and I can taste how bitter I've become
And it's more than I can bear
I can't shed my skin
I can't shed my skin

You would give it all up in an instant i bet you'd torch your house with your own hands.
You'd let me break your back so you could lie in it and never get up from it.
You're back into that smack do you know you act just like a whore beggin' for crack or a sack.
You think you revolutionize with every breath you take you bring me down.

You're wasted now and you're gettin' on down with the disco.
You're wasted now and you think you want to leave but you don't go.
You're wasted now and your pants have been soiled but you disco.
You're wasted now and you think there was a point but you don't know.

You would take us all down with you if you would stab me in the back with your own hands.
Never turn around to see if i'm ok i'll always get up, get up in your face.
You're one of the people everybody just loves to hate.
Just a person everybody else loves to blame.
You think we care well every breath you take just brings us down.

What was your point.
You bring it back for me, those things i thought had left me.
That hate that greed that bleeds me become the speed that feed me

Can't you see me walkin in your shoes
Can't you feel me steppin all over your soul
Can't you feel me reach into you

Can't you feel me walkin over your soul
Can't you feel me wait in pain
Can't you feel me reach into you

Can't you see me walkin in your shoes
Can't you feel me steppin all over your soul
Can't you feel me reach into you

Can't you feel me walkin over your soul
Can't you feel me wait in pain
Can't you feel me reach into you
