All The Pretty Flowers 03:33
lyrics
buy track
All the times you tell me I’m insane Well, I wonder who’s gonna be the one you’ll tame today Your novelty is long over worn You’re not the shangri-la that you once were Don’t you try to shove yourself on me Cause my mind is mine and you know it’ll always be I’ve lived behind your disguise that brings terror to the hypnotized All the pretty flowers in your hair All the little games you play All the pretty flowers in your hair I know they’re not for me All the dreams in your head. It’s not for me your bitchin’ little world You’re not supposed to cry until you’re burned You’ve got weak men jumping to find the right words to say Superficial love will always come your way Now you’re crying like you’ve just been used Cause prince charming never read your rules

Overrated 03:16
lyrics
buy track
And there you were, fixed on a distant memory While everyone around you voted plain You jump around us, sweet as can be And no one knows you, so amazed inside your world But I know that place inside of you I couldn’t care what you bring, have to be held if the birds don’t sing Made it this far, good for you, you’re fascinated You are the star of the room, playing your part will dissolve real soon Helps you survive, very true, you’re overrated With the least amount of time, you’re the leader of the game And without it, you’d go crazy I would adore being you, but so often think you’re through Any day now, you’ll lose that vanity I’ve got the key to watch you fold You don’t know who you are.

Understand 02:46
lyrics
buy track
Queen of every last parade But there’s always something you have to cry about Rotten, tainted Pouting like it’s gone out of style I would’ve waited but my patience faded Cause you didn’t even try You sit there staring right at me You make your quick analogies, then I’m tossed away I don’t understand you at all Saving face for you is a simple formality l don’t understand you at all Your act grows old, better think and look at yourself You’ve just built your wall Just look at yourself. Living by the rights of denial You will not, cannot bargain a chance to win Burning envy Refuse to be part of your trial You don’t even know when you’re burning out Living on a cloud Spent countless hours by the phone You said you needed time alone, every single day You took life slowly out of me And I know I’d rather be going where I’m bound I’m stating the reality Taking what’s left inside of me I won’t be your world’s clown I don’t really like you at all You’ve just created your own formality I don’t really like you at all

Safer 03:35
lyrics

Downwards is where I’m going It’s a place I’ve made my home Need to figure out the things that I will say to you Well, I just want to make it real I’ve been down that road before I am tired out, wish I could just decide You and I, not the same as before Can’t stop screaming from the inside Since you’ve gone, you’re still the one I adore I wish you well, but I miss you so Our points of view, never clarified We always dealt with things that way I have no trust in all the things that you have said and done for me I’ve been down that road before I am tired out, sick of just getting by

Give 03:11
lyrics
buy track
Hold your goodbyes, we made you brave Took our whole lives to rid the cradle, to this day So apt to gain from the choices we made After all no comfort found, Proof from the tears that still surround your letter I would give it all to you It’s needless to say I’d be there I would give it all to you Part of me dies, but I’ll still hang on Cause we held you. With every hour you found the truth Culled from notes, the samples of remembered youth Right till the moment on the doorstep, we tried. Twenty years still in the womb, Rest of our time becoming soon, forever. Inside this room, we laughed insane Reenacting the wonders. Made up to redeem my failures Found answers from the inside But I’ve hit the wall this time I beg of you, be my friend.

All Of God's Faces 03:07
lyrics
buy track
Did you hurt yourself again? Does your heart still bleed? You’ll be forever remembered in every way Why don’t you fade away? It binds you and hides the bane It’s no skin off your back, you’re respectfully the same You’re wicked, the dog of the sun Pull that face off What were you thinking of? Bruised at recess, perfect defect, unnamed Sweet talking gem, you’re controlled by the rats in your brain Safe with your mother, big brother, they’re so fond of you Just learned to kneel to their voices or when spoken to Sell the garbage and the crap you say You make the same mistakes, repeated You’re all of God’s faces Every day’s the same with you Don’t care to help you in any way Swollen, go back to the nest where you purge And remind me to forget you Exception to the rule when they call You like to keep pictures of friends off your wall You keep your dollhouse clean, your stick and your badge Blessed by thousands you big man, you wanted the fame You got it, so have it You want it, you got it.

Before You Go 03:36
lyrics
buy track
When morning came it felt so wrong You’d be standing by the phone Let it sit in your mind and rewind it There was no ease from the fainted lies It crushed you, but it gave you something In the end you wouldn’t believe, forgiving was a weakness Why won’t it go away? Here we are, the reasons for Search a million miles a day Living by the memories created We never said much, but it didn’t mean a thing at all Feels I couldn’t miss you more I’ll wait. Lie awake, I play our song Pictures covering the wall Here comes the breeze to relieve my fixation It’s been quiet for so long It sought you, but it gave you something Still you could not believe, giving was the greatness Welcome to the memories We had it all

Make Believe 04:36
lyrics
buy track
I can see, the nasty little letters are for me With each and every step it feels diseased Frame by frame Have to chose, I feel at times as though I am deceived The curse of your affection seeps through me Wish I was relieved of you If you’re around, just stay for awhile We can make believe for something It’s a love, just watching you smile Even if it’s all for nothing And it bleeds, infectious to the rage when you’re at ease Stuck in a corner now But I still believe in you It still isn’t over.

Not Here With Me 03:28
lyrics
buy track
Things were so good with you then, but what was there to keep? So many things remembered, your lame analogies dug our hole You were not there for me. And so, it always felt like drowning in my sleep The thought of you just messed with my head I lost all sight. I don’t care about the sunshine, taking on the world outside And whatever makes your life worth happening As long as you’re not here with me. Your lies brought pain, embracing your charades You’re made of stone, but you’ll fall. You seemed so excited leaving me mislead We were so divided, oversight, but I stayed for the ride Don’t own this body.

The Answers 03:23
lyrics
buy track
You made me smile, and washed away the anger You were like my need to breathe You gave me doubt, but I’d reach over towers Just for a chance to be with you I’ve been there before, done chasing after you Searching for a retribution Then I found, I have all the answers But I’ll never tell you, not ever. You freaked me out, and tore my heart to pieces You could’ve been of kinder breeds Lashed out at me, your silvertongue kept soaring Did I fail? I wonder. Why? You let me down But I’ve got all the answers I’ve got the best of worlds now
