Look how you've come so far from where you came I always knew that you would never feel the same You swore you'd never slip away, so why can't I get a grip on just how you've changed You swore you'd never change Do you even notice the difference between who you were and just what you became I never thought you'd be here, who gave you the map to the place that i fear (You bottle it up just to bottle it down) Oh, yea you can't survive 'til you know what it means to be alive Oh, yea I would have died for you to find a better way to live your life I can see what this road did, you stand here so eroded It's wearing you down piece by piece, and I can tell you're wearing in two Is it really just the medication or have you fallen in love with such a dangerous sensation? I know you never wanted this cancer coursing through your veins This is a calling out to those wires that tangled you again You're just a silhouette, you're nothing but a silhouette

Patience is needed in the back room You know you can have it all once Just hope that when you're done your decisions were the best ones Your intentions weren't to go this far But you know things were out of hand from the start Temptation lies beneath your sheets And your defenses happen to be too weak You put your guard down, keep it where its falling You crossed the line now, can you keep a secret It's time to say goodbye, or we'll drown here tonight Patience is needed in the back room Well is it true that true love doesn't exist There's only one lesson to pull out of this The answer comes, it comes with every kiss Your intentions weren't to go this far But you know things were out of hand from the start Temptation lies beneath your sheets And your defenses happen to be too weak You placed your bets on the winner And you know that your just planning on throwing the fight

I've got insults dripping from the tip of my tongue They've been building up from the bottom of my lungs My heart could break at this rate Keeping time with the beating of the rain Your pain intake gets greater with all of my hearsay I'll put it all in the back of my mind to dwell inside I'll let it out on you 'til your eyes start running dry I wish that I could find a way to apologize Now I am who I used to hate You have the right to remain in disdain Your voice is calling, the fire's falling from my lips Animosity dances slowly so I'm waiting for the song to skip I put it all in the back of my mind to dwell inside I'll let it out on you 'til your eyes start running dry And I don't want you to see me get like this It seems all I do is just raise my hand just to shake a fist And I wish that I could find a way to apologize Now I am who I used to hate You have the right to remain in disdain

Mr. Fallen 03:20
And he said hey, hey, is anyone listening to me I've got a bag full of intentions, just you wait and see It feels like yesterday when Mr. Fallen came to town He said listen up boys and girls I've got something to show you, could change the world It's my very own innovation I can guarantee you it beats salvation Just give it a change and see it can do to you what it's done to me And he said hey, hey, is anyone listening to me I've got a bag full of intentions, just you wait and see His underlying motivation is introduction to temptation No sir, we don't need it Your bag of offenses...you can keep it You never say never to the man in black Because I guarantee you he's comin' right back The salesman of transgressions has a way with words and first impressions So lock your doors and hide the key Cause he's comin' for you like he's comin' for me Oh, Mr. Fallen, can you return from where you came He said, "I'm sorry son, but I must confess to me it's all a game"

It's over now you're lost in doubt You'll never amount to be more than just a pin-drop Among all the shouts of these bitter crowds Chiming in with an anthem blend Of conscience exempt and then desperate attempt to be sure that I'll fail again They say that I am just a lost cause And they say that I am just a falling star But aren't those the ones that you wish on These crowded rooms are just in bloom Hanging around to spread this cancer about Where skies are never blue, bent on breaking the news That destinies are luxuries that always choose you But where's the proof Never will we pretend that all our endeavors will bear a consequence Father, give us the strength to hold on a little longer We'll make it through the end

We're headed nowhere down this road marked with intentions of a hero But they vanished one by one, I guess I'm not who I thought that I was Now it's all gone to pieces, it's all been shattered in the dust Can someone please help me find the gold left in the rust When promises become a quick fix, just a means to an end How far is it from virtue to condescend But have you ever felt the tremors of just not being quite enough What if my best shot won't measure up But if it's true that the hero doesn't lose then tell me Tell me what, oh tell me what I am to you If this is really nowhere, we'll be out of here by dawn All that you have is all that I need to retrace just what you've drawn It's hangin on your neck and it's hanging on your shoulders I can take this fall for you if you just hand it over Why do you want to push even farther Your fist full of pride is only getting larger These lies have got you just spinning out of control Does that emptiness make you finally feel whole But have you ever felt the tremors of just not being quite enough But I know one day I'll lift you up Because it's true that hero doesn't lose and tell me Tell me what, oh tell me what I am to you

Oh, your honor I don't mean to be a bother This is the defendant who's probation's been suspended and now He represents himself, he's got nobody else That will pick a side that will coincide with his favor I've got a witness in the business of creativity And he can testify to justify our inhumane activity We know he's guilty by association We know that he deserves incarceration His guiltiness is so deeply rooted It can be concluded that his stories are polluted Does it take a man who will yield no defense To prove his very own innocence Ladies and gents of the jury don't you worry I've got a convincing testimony and it reads: They said, she said, he said love is a contest Only the best will be taken into heaven You can bet that all of the rest will be taken out of context And oh, these people we will exploit just to make it a point This judge is so easily entertained His identity we've so quickly disengaged Now we've got him in the palm of our hands It's gonna be so easy to make a prophet of this man His guiltiness is so deeply rooted It can be concluded that his stories are polluted (The stage is set, you can bet that we'll sentence him to death) Does it take a man who will yield no defense To prove his very own innocence Oh my God, what have we done Can we answer for all that we've become And one hand puts you to shame With fingers crossed we praise your name Oh what price you would pay, what you would give That you would die so we might truly live

Half As Much 03:38
So there we were, just two souls drifting along the tide for the ride But the ocean was just dying to tear us apart and so it tried As you washed ashore I sank down into the oceans core To hide from myself tonight I said where are the wings that used to make us soar You said I don't wanna fly anymore And if I died would you still be missing me half as much as I miss you And if I died would it still be the same in the end Because to you, I'm already dead I've heard it said that friends don't have to say goodbye So why doesn't every sad song receive a well deserved reply But I guess it's true that suicide is sleep deprived When all the flights to longer strides that leave me blind And I just try to disguise my pride from myself tonight I said where are the wings that used to make us soar You said I don't wanna fly anymore Amidst all of this there's a light still burning bright for us And you could separate your anger from that fading trust Then angels wings would replace the things that leave us so out of touch Then angels wings would replace the things that leave us so out of touch
