Hit me up by 5 am out the door by half passed late Slaving by the bell only I can tell My day is yours to break Half way done still miles to go Just around another bend and turn Only so much time to make you mine But I’m ready to crash and burn And I’m down and out Don’t know where I’m going But don’t have any doubt All it takes a 3 (0) count If I only knew what I know now To stop me from bringing my own self down I would’ve changed the world, I would’ve changed my mind But I’m going down down down I’ve taken a turn but only for the worse Down and away it goes No more chances no more lies I’m still around yet no one knows Forget this place, forget my face, And the mysteries of tomorrow You’ll think to yourself when I’m finally gone He’ll be one tough act to follow If I only knew what I know now To stop me from bringing my own self down I would’ve changed the world; I would’ve changed my mind But I’m going down down down To all the lessons that I have learned To all the bridges I have burned You would have changed your world You would have changed your mind But you’re going down down down

Empty Words 03:02
Watch your words run I glance at the sun Cause nothing ever really changes "Follow the heart" I give it a start But then life just rearranges Oh well I'll break through your walls of ruse If just to find some truth Tell me speak now Don’t understand how Most words are overstated Just walk in line It'll be fine Keep yourself locked up and gated Minds ticking so fast It’s like running on glass In endless circles you created I’ll break through your walls of ruse If just to find Questions to go with answers once known When is my time? Broke right through your words of ruse Just had to find Broke right through the walls of you Just had to find the light

I can’t call this place home Am I stuck inside my mind? Or forever alone? I can’t help myself from trying When I feel myself keep dying Was this a lie, from the start? When I’m here, I feel so safe, you know I just can’t seem to go Cause I’m running and hiding and spinning in circles again Trying to cut lose, trying to fight off the bends I’ve been lying and crying and fighting myself in my head Because I don’t want to work and slave until I’m dead You come riding by Do you understand the feelings inside your mind? Cause when you’re here I feel alive Just put your hand inside of mine And we’ll run carelessly Seasons change and leaves turn dry Time moves on; friends say goodbye But we don’t fear a thing Because I’d trade in the times To be with you again All I ever needed was a friend Shake up the moment Don’t think, just abide Eventually you’ll see these things right I want to take this opportunity To point out the lack of unity Between us when we sang The time we spent counting the years The laughs, the cries, the shouts, the cheers Don’t mean a thing anymore Because I don’t want to work or slave until I’m dead

Dead End 04:12
Getting lost on dead end streets Trying to find some way out Some way out Neon signs hang like reefs, Seems like I’m still taking the wrong route The wrong route I’ll find some way To fall so far away from here I’ll find some way To fall so far away from here The same old faces all the time Why is everybody so damn near? So damn near The same old reason, same old rhyme To everyone else it seems so clear It seems so clear When it comes I’ll find some ordinary place to call my own But it’s not home When it comes I’ll find some ordinary girl to call my own But she’s not home Getting lost on dead end streets Trying to find some way out Some way out I’ll find some way To fall so far away from here I’ll find some way To fall so far away from here

I’ll take my time. The darkness is finally gone And I’ll take my time These shadows are what remain A little taste of love won’t do any harm And I’ll take my time but the months, they grow shorter (You’ll never know of us or find the time) These tricks up your sleeve, they won’t work on me any longer (You’ll never know of us or find the time) And I’ll take my time but don’t you waist all of mine You’re not a quick one to forgive. I started waiting for you to make your move Storylines just set us free Honey do you feel me? I’m always at the wrong place Staring at the wrong time We were once the kings and queens Now we’re just the strangers I’ll take my time I’ll only miss you when you’re gone (You’ll never know of us or find the time) Forever doesn’t mean, a thing to me anymore (You’ll never know of us or find the time) I know time is of the essence, but I’m still trying my best And I can’t keep my eyes off of you Yeah Opportunity is knocking right in front of us Time to take advantage; this life is calling us Triggers at the ready The countdown has begun Don’t you false start now It’s not our time to run And I’ll take my time with your hand in mine Running on down the line because we made it But you know we gotta live and take what’s to give Our time is not yet done We’re just the strangers The Strangers The Strangers The Strangers Yeah [x4] I started waiting for you to make your move Storylines just set us free Honey do you feel me? I’m always at the wrong place Staring at the wrong time We were once the kings and queens Now we’re just the strangers [x2] And I’ll take my time with your hand in mine Running on down the line because we made it But you know we gotta live and take what’s to give Our time is now done

On Your Call 02:57
Waiting at your doorstep Staring at my phone Waiting on your call So when you think I’m here right now (So when you think I’m here right now) So when you think I’m here right now I’m not at all Driving down the highway Been all by myself With nobody else And when you see me drive away (And when you see me drive away) And when you see me drive away I hope you’re a mess And it’s the same old game all the time You always change the rules And it’s the same old play all the time You just don’t seem to lose Hey, Yeah Yeah I’m alright Hey, Yeah I just don’t want to fight
7.
Lock Box 05:50
I feel it passing slowly through me Slowly turning the key into my locked vault I see you as you’re gently sleeping The memories I’m keeping are too good for you So listen as I tell my story It’s not written for me It’s written for you So listen. I’ll tell you a secret Just promise not to keep it I will forget you You’re stubborn You bully like a thug Addictive like a drug What are you trying to prove I’m tired Of lying to myself Just me and no one else What do I have left to lose? Lose, yeah
8.
I’m helpless I’ve gotten less than that I’ve gotten broken Put back together I’ve been thinking Been seeing nothing Nothing keeps on Running forever But you just pass me by I wonder why I try But when you ask, I’ll say “Hell yeah, I’m alright” Running back to you When I just can’t seem to throw myself to something new Something new But when it comes I find that I haven’t grown at all I’ve hit the wall Hit the wall Falling down again I’ve never been much for speaking It’s too much of an endeavor And I keep on repeating Those words “Don’t forget her” Running back to you When I just can’t seem to throw myself to something new Something new But when it comes I find that I haven’t learned at all I’ve hit the wall Hit the wall Falling down I’m falling down I’m falling down again

Free At Last 03:26
We’ll keep fighting on like we did before Now the fall won’t hurt you anymore Listen close to the sound of summer time We finally have the wind on our side The same story goes on and on everyday It’s old news now we’re gonna get away Time keeps on bending Our words never ending We’ve altered our endings We’re finally free at last
10.
You don’t know what you’re up against When you got the special ninety nine The power has taken the offense And being active is a crime I can’t seem to get off my feet I can’t seem to get off the street Take the time to remember What we’re all fighting for Is this the right life? Is this the right lie? We’ll stand together as our lifeline Take the time to remember The men and women who will never surrender Multiply it, Test to fight it, Cause in the end we’ll have to will to fight it Legislature running up and down The pigs are watching from the wall And when they’ve taken the green crown They’ll paint it red inside the hall My voice just never seemed so loud Never seemed to jump the crowd Whoa oh oh oh Whoa oh oh oh Whoa oh oh oh Whoa oh oh oh, oh Hey, Yeah Hey, Yeah
11.
Don't run and hide from all the things inside your mind Forget it all I used to sing The songs for her But now I see Where I went wrong Remember when the moon shined Remember when the wind cried Look past the island in the fog The fog The fog The fog We’re diving off the deep end Staring at the bitter end Not so long ago you called yourself a friend Lay your weapons down No need to sing aloud Silence speaks volumes These echoes have been dead for now I’ll be damned if I start from the bottom again Seem to have trouble, with you my friend (Don’t find a reason why) Running around in circles, again and again (I can never tell) I feel the motion sickness every now and then (Oh how you remind me of my old self) These echoes are dead for now (These echoes, they’re dead for now) These echoes are dead for now (These echoes, they’re dead for now) These echoes are dead for now (These echoes, they’re dead for now) These echoes are dead for now (These echoes, they’re dead for now) These echoes are dead for now
