Should have been more careful With a fragile heart Should have been more Open from the start If honesty was so Important to you Leading me on was Not the right thing to do I get so tired So lost and cold Been so alone Somebody take me home Did you even Want me to know Maybe be your Secret to own It’s so easy To fall apart Feelings been wasted Another lesson for me I get so tired So lost and cold Been so alone Take me home I get so tired So lost and cold Been so alone Take me home I get so tired So lost and cold Been so alone Take me home

Said Nothing 03:05
So you wanted to get high At your lowest of lows You thought it might get you by But you didn’t know You swore you knew nothing And nobody cared You fall to the right And then you were scared You thought it did right and went to prove Something but it didn’t show You needed my help but then you said Nothing doesn’t help you now All along you played a teacher To get you there But all that was left was you alone You’re a sustained cowboy Who just rode away Your feelings to yourself Won’t break the light of day You thought you were someone Made of stone I fuckin wish you would come back And make yourself someone You thought it did right and went to prove Something but it didn’t show You needed my help but then you said Nothing doesn’t help you now All along you played a teacher To get you there But all that was left was you alone You thought it did right and went to prove Something but it didn’t show You needed my help but then you said Nothing doesn’t help you now All along you played a teacher To get you there But all that was left was you alone You thought it did right and went to prove Something but it didn’t show You needed my help but then you said nothing

Guess I'll be enough to take the blame and all your say so Beautiful disaster but hey that's the way these things go Runnin' for another chance to start this life all over Sayonara see ya never again here I go as I sing Get out alive runnin' free Get out alive go blame me Get out alive you say so When's enough too much to let you stay Get out alive runnin' free Get out alive go blame me Get out alive good riddance California girl Courtin' misery to please a non stop loosing battle Familiar with a place that's suppose to be your heart While I walk away from all your life of self destruction Shrug my shoulders I won't try to pretend here I go as I scream Get out alive runnin' free Get out alive go blame me Get out alive you say so When's enough too much to let you stay Get out alive runnin' free Get out alive go blame me Get out alive good riddance California girl Get out alive runnin' free Get out alive go blame me Get out alive you say so When's enough too much to let you stay Get out alive runnin' free Get out alive go blame me Get out alive good riddance California girl

Dizzy 03:57
You you could be wonderful You could be magnificent You could take over the world You showed up In a new dress Tried so hard to impress But the drinks just got in the way Opened your mouth Thought you would shout But the words that came out Just turned everybody away Oh you will never notice What you’re living in You will never listen To anyone or anything You you could be wonderful You could be magnificent You could take over the world But you keep on falling Keep on falling down Yeah you keep on falling Keep on falling down Now back again Shit eating grin Claiming free from sin But we know you better than that Haven’t grown up Down on your luck Don’t give a fuck There it all goes again Oh you will never notice What you’re living in You will never listen To anyone or anything You keep on falling (keep on falling) Keep on falling (keep on falling) Keep on falling Keep on falling down

She 02:18
She has a place where she can run away to And she has a lot left to overcome She has stories never be told And secrets no one will ever know But she’s got answers To everybody’s problems But her own She has a shield wrapped around her Abused and callused heart She’s got a soul full of love and wonder And she will never let you in But she’s got answers To everybody’s problems But her own But she’s got answers To everybody’s problems But she's got answers To everybody's problems But her own

It started off with some little white lies I’d keep you bottled up on the inside You told your mom that I was the right guy You told your friends it’d be alright Alright You worked some dive bar on the west side We’d laugh and joke on those long rides Melt to the sparkle of your blue eyes Stay out all night until the sunrise Sunrise Forgotten Angel did you know I’m crying – tonight (crying tonight) Forgotten Angel the truth’s been hiding - in plain sight (hiding in sight) Forgotten Angel I hear you’re smiling - so bright (smiling so bright) Forgotten Angel I'll be Hang at the lake on the edge of town I’d hold you close while the sun went down Your Dad would tell me not to come around Dream of a church and a wedding gown A gown Skip out of school in the afternoon Sneak up the stairs into your room The smell of your baby soft perfume It started fast and ended too soon Too soon Forgotten Angel did you know I’m crying – tonight (crying tonight) Forgotten Angel the truth’s been hiding - in plain sight (hiding in sight) Forgotten Angel I hear you’re smiling - so bright (smiling so bright) Forgotten Angel I'll be alright Forgotten Angel did you know I’m crying – tonight (crying tonight) Forgotten Angel the truth’s been hiding - in plain sight (hiding in sight) Forgotten Angel I hear you’re smiling - so bright (smiling so bright) Forgotten Angel I'll be alright

Push 03:03
The failure that you left behind I’ve come back to take it all To show you what you could have had The one that you wrote off Fear fueled by your rejection Sorry that I wasn’t more like you Don’t push me away I’m only gonna come back stronger Than before I was your biggest weapon I was your greatest supporter I’ll be the victor of this war A simple message that could not Have been any clearer Could not be worded any other way Forget all about the past And all of this disorder Has made me the man I am today Don’t push me away I’m only gonna come back stronger Than before I was your biggest weapon I was your greatest supporter I’ll be the victor of this war Don’t push me away I’m only gonna come back stronger Than before I was your biggest weapon I was your greatest supporter Now your living nightmare Now your highest dissenter Man you better watch your back

Rusty 04:16
And if you feel like living underneath the same bright stars To see these tears drop is just the way we are And any drug that I could take could never do just what you do And like a bad day we could just turn the other way Any struggle any mountain we can climb Is just what happens when we’re not wasting each other’s time And any drug that I could take could never do just what you do And like a bad day we could just turn the other way And if you feel like living underneath the same bright stars To see these tears drop is just the way we are And any drug that I could take could never do just what you do And like a bad day we could just turn the other way And any drug that I could take could never do just what you do And like a bad day we could just turn the other way

In The End 04:11
As time goes by and the seasons change Not enough hours in the Day Where you once laid Is now an empty space I cannot take this anymore You’ve gone and walked right out my door I know you’re never coming back to me again You walked away my only friend I can’t go forward but I can’t go back You’ve gone and knocked me right off track But you can’t see Just what you mean to me You’re moving on but I’m just stuck right here You walked away and left me with my tears But you can’t see Just what you’ve done to me I cannot take this anymore You’ve gone and walked right out my door I know you’re never coming back to me again You walked away my only friend My heart is breaking cause you’ve done me wrong Try to move forward but I can’t go on And you can’t see Just what you’ve done to me I cannot take this anymore You’ve gone and walked right out my door I know you’re never coming back to me again You walked away my only friend I cannot take this anymore You’ve gone and walked right out my door I know you’re never coming back to me again You walked away my only friend As time goes by and the seasons change
