I've gone and laid it out as perfectly as I can And we've both heard them all say it so many times before I swear it I never have and never will be keeping score Because if you where the one with me I'd show you everything there is to see I've always been here and could never sway I could not beguine to imagine it any other way I've always lifted you up when you are down I'll chisel out a smile of every frown You've always been there and could never sway You said that you couldn't imagine it any other way You've always lifted me up when I am down Even managed to chisel a smirk of every frown How could I picture it any other way? Never have I ever believed in fate I could never seem to relate Until the day I came into the sight of it all Passing through the rear view I'm plagued with these ghosts of you You always seem to just barley slip through my grip But could I ever catch you in time? I've always been here and could never sway I could not beguine to imagine it any other way I've always lifted you up when you are down I'll chisel out a smile of every frown You've always been there and could never sway You said that you couldn't imagine it any other way You've always lifted me up when I am down Even managed to chisel a smirk of every frown How could I picture it any other way? I may never come to know When we stopped seeing things eye to eye And I may never stop wondering why But I'll go and find the strength to move on If that's what you really want I could never bur the bridge on which you stand Believe me I've gone and already tried that hand Doused it in accelerant and dropped my cigarette The flames grew as did my regret Playing with fire you are bound to get burned The scars are markings of lessons learned I've found my own way to move on Without letting go of the past But I can't promise this moment will last I've always been here and could never sway I could not beguine to imagine it any other way I've always lifted you up when you are down I'll chisel out a smile of every frown You've always been there and could never sway You said that you couldn't imagine it any other way You've always lifted me up when I am down Even managed to chisel a smirk of every frown How could you picture it any other way At times the world may come to seem so bitterly cold I've felt the weight and the pressure grows bridle and old Maybe it is just the price of starting a life To anguish and make it through the thicket of strife But with another shoulder you can make it another mile Don't worry you'll make it after a while It gets so much harder from here With a will you'll find the right path to steer If the years pass and you feel you where wrong Listening back through the lines of every old song I'll pick you up until the very end But you swore only as a friend I held on to the time as long as I could Still you swore you never would So I told myself to let go of the past If not now it would never last I've always been here and could never sway I could not beguine to imagine it any other way I've always lifted you up when you are down I'll chisel out a smile of every frown You've always been there and could never sway You said that you couldn't imagine it any other way You've always lifted me up when I am down Even managed to chisel a smirk of every frown How could we picture it any other way?

Faith In A Friend
I've gone and laid it out as perfectly as I can And we've both heard them all say it so many times before I swear it I never have and never will be keeping score Because if you where the one with me I'd show you everything there is to see I've always been here and could never sway I could not beguine to imagine it any other way I've always lifted you up when you are down I'll chisel out a smile of every frown You've always been there and could never sway You said that you couldn't imagine it any other way You've always lifted me up when I am down Even managed to chisel a smirk of every frown How could I picture it any other way? Never have I ever believed in fate I could never seem to relate Until the day I came into the sight of it all Passing through the rear view I'm plagued with these ghosts of you You always seem to just barley slip through my grip But could I ever catch you in time? I've always been here and could never sway I could not beguine to imagine it any other way I've always lifted you up when you are down I'll chisel out a smile of every frown You've always been there and could never sway You said that you couldn't imagine it any other way You've always lifted me up when I am down Even managed to chisel a smirk of every frown How could I picture it any other way? I may never come to know When we stopped seeing things eye to eye And I may never stop wondering why But I'll go and find the strength to move on If that's what you really want I could never bur the bridge on which you stand Believe me I've gone and already tried that hand Doused it in accelerant and dropped my cigarette The flames grew as did my regret Playing with fire you are bound to get burned The scars are markings of lessons learned I've found my own way to move on Without letting go of the past But I can't promise this moment will last I've always been here and could never sway I could not beguine to imagine it any other way I've always lifted you up when you are down I'll chisel out a smile of every frown You've always been there and could never sway You said that you couldn't imagine it any other way You've always lifted me up when I am down Even managed to chisel a smirk of every frown How could you picture it any other way At times the world may come to seem so bitterly cold I've felt the weight and the pressure grows bridle and old Maybe it is just the price of starting a life To anguish and make it through the thicket of strife But with another shoulder you can make it another mile Don't worry you'll make it after a while It gets so much harder from here With a will you'll find the right path to steer If the years pass and you feel you where wrong Listening back through the lines of every old song I'll pick you up until the very end But you swore only as a friend I held on to the time as long as I could Still you swore you never would So I told myself to let go of the past If not now it would never last I've always been here and could never sway I could not beguine to imagine it any other way I've always lifted you up when you are down I'll chisel out a smile of every frown You've always been there and could never sway You said that you couldn't imagine it any other way You've always lifted me up when I am down Even managed to chisel a smirk of every frown How could we picture it any other way?

I inhale so deep into my lungs The smoke so I might blow out a cloud To reach up and cover the sun in a shroud So long I wanted to block out It's light The dream to live in an eternal night I've seen so much more then I've ever wanted to see Honestly I've never even asked any of this to be When I found you I found a place I'd like to park Drawn in with your glow in a world so very dark But while I'm in the shadow and you're in the unobscured You can not see me so there is no strength in a word You are the sun and I am the moon There is no meeting of us neither midnight or noon The only way if we meet at an eclipse To spread fear of the apocalypse You have your place and I have mine I can see that now so surly I'll be fine There are ghosts that I cross every corner of this town I've learned so well to hide signs of every single frown So often I wonder why I am still here When there is nothing left to even hold me near But it is not in my way to let go If you ever knew me then this you would already know When I found you I found a place I'd like to park Drawn in with your glow in a world so very dark But while I'm in the shadow and you're in the unobscured You can not see me so there is no strength in a word For so long now I have just chased you across the sky Just narrowly obstructed to your view There is no way for you to see the things that I do I've bled every drop from within this heart Just to offer the choice of a fresh start But I should have remembered the place I reside Within this darkness is the place I hide Whenever history has always seemed so bleak The weight makes it so difficult to even speak I must find strength to look away from the past This ship has been sinking ever so fast And I see not a single sign for land But really did I plan it any other way When I found you I found a place I'd like to park Drawn in with your glow in a world so very dark But while I'm in the shadow and you're in the unobscured You can not see me so there is no strength in a word I have found my ways to cope with this life I'll admit I cling deeply to my every vice The path I was given bears a hefty price And I still don't know what brought me here To the start before that first year The moment my mother gave birth And I was brought here into this earth This was something for which I never asked But still by them all I was tasked To live and as long as I can survive What is the pint With no victory within my strive When I found you I found a place I'd like to park Drawn in with your glow in a world so very dark But while I'm in the shadow and you're in the unobscured You can not see me so there is no strength in a word When I found you I found a place I'd like to park Drawn in with your glow in a world so very dark But while I'm in the shadow and you're in the unobscured You can not see me so there is no strength in a word I've grown accustom to this eternal night I thought it would take my vision away To block out the bright of every day And I was never any more wrong But for the light now I do not long I see so much better now with no light There is no reason to cling to the frigh

Darkness In Day
I inhale so deep into my lungs The smoke so I might blow out a cloud To reach up and cover the sun in a shroud So long I wanted to block out It's light The dream to live in an eternal night I've seen so much more then I've ever wanted to see Honestly I've never even asked any of this to be When I found you I found a place I'd like to park Drawn in with your glow in a world so very dark But while I'm in the shadow and you're in the unobscured You can not see me so there is no strength in a word You are the sun and I am the moon There is no meeting of us neither midnight or noon The only way if we meet at an eclipse To spread fear of the apocalypse You have your place and I have mine I can see that now so surly I'll be fine There are ghosts that I cross every corner of this town I've learned so well to hide signs of every single frown So often I wonder why I am still here When there is nothing left to even hold me near But it is not in my way to let go If you ever knew me then this you would already know When I found you I found a place I'd like to park Drawn in with your glow in a world so very dark But while I'm in the shadow and you're in the unobscured You can not see me so there is no strength in a word For so long now I have just chased you across the sky Just narrowly obstructed to your view There is no way for you to see the things that I do I've bled every drop from within this heart Just to offer the choice of a fresh start But I should have remembered the place I reside Within this darkness is the place I hide Whenever history has always seemed so bleak The weight makes it so difficult to even speak I must find strength to look away from the past This ship has been sinking ever so fast And I see not a single sign for land But really did I plan it any other way When I found you I found a place I'd like to park Drawn in with your glow in a world so very dark But while I'm in the shadow and you're in the unobscured You can not see me so there is no strength in a word I have found my ways to cope with this life I'll admit I cling deeply to my every vice The path I was given bears a hefty price And I still don't know what brought me here To the start before that first year The moment my mother gave birth And I was brought here into this earth This was something for which I never asked But still by them all I was tasked To live and as long as I can survive What is the pint With no victory within my strive When I found you I found a place I'd like to park Drawn in with your glow in a world so very dark But while I'm in the shadow and you're in the unobscured You can not see me so there is no strength in a word When I found you I found a place I'd like to park Drawn in with your glow in a world so very dark But while I'm in the shadow and you're in the unobscured You can not see me so there is no strength in a word I've grown accustom to this eternal night I thought it would take my vision away To block out the bright of every day And I was never any more wrong But for the light now I do not long I see so much better now with no light There is no reason to cling to the frigh

I have drug my feet my whole life Everybody seems to step right on my heel Don't blame me if I can't feel They set me up from the start So I guess I'll just blow the scene apart **You can kick me when I'm down but wont ever seem me frown No I have been made to keep stronger then that You can not make me your door mat I've been the victim for too long So I went and wrote this song To release the product of my rage I'll bleed it out on every page ** I've got yours as you slide the knife into my back The things that they say the ways that they sway Towering over them all I could feel as I started to fall To the ground I rest just a moment maybe two But I have to get up there are things yet to do I let loose within the crowd Grit my teeth through the loud Watch as they pull the wool right over my eyes Because you think I just don't realize **I can see so much deeper then your face Behind your lies I see nothing more then a disgrace I sensed it since the moment you walked in Stuck sickened waiting for your ******** to beguine I can see everything that you are doing to me Is this really what you want** I've given you the knife so you might as well slit my throat Yeah you cut me right ear to ear Then you run off taking my last beer With all jokes aside I'm sick and tired of this land slide The avalanche of all your hate You where never the ones assigned to delegate I've got yours as you slide the knife into my back The things that they say the ways that they sway Towering over them all I could feel as I started to fall To the ground I rest just a moment maybe two But I have to get up there are things yet to do **For so long I struggled and wondered why You always seem to be beating me with this stick ****** broken down, bruised, and sick It's like there is surly a target painted on upon my back Just waiting for the next surprise attack** Every time That we may cross I'll offer to shake your hand and move on But maybe the moment is gone You are always cutting me down To bring me back down to size That makes you no sort of prize I've got yours as you slide the knife into my back The things that they say the ways that they sway Towering over them all I could feel as I started to fall To the ground I rest just a moment maybe two But I have to get up there are things yet to do **You can dig the hole if you want I can see where you wish for me to lie For so long I just lived and tried to deny You tried to play it all off just a joke A lye that almost made me ******* choke Because your actions so much louder then a word I'm sick of all these deceptions that I've heard** I've drug my feet all my life So go ahead kick me in the heels if you'd like But don't go wondering how you wound up here No need for fear you should have expected my spike **I'll lay the bodies upon the floor Spread gasoline from the door I can't believe you did this to me So angry I'm too blind to even see**

An Eye For An Eye Makes The Whole World Cry

I've gone and decided to flip it over to a new page Maybe somewhere out there is a chapter to find brand new Because where it all stands I feel the grip growing at my throat I'll be headed out the door better not forget to grab my coat The winters here always seem so harsh But where better the times you stood by my side I know that this is not what you wanted and neither did I I thought I'd always be the one to dry your eye There is nothing here left for me There is no way for me to bring you to see I've been ripping every follicle of my hair right out Screaming until my throat closes up, you can't even hear me shout Oh what a mess I've put myself in How could I put myself here again Driving myself so ******* mad But I could never say without you I'd be glad I am so sorry but I feel it coming I am going to need my space Though I never wanted to part ways with your grace I've just been going straight out of my mind I fear for the time that I've lost to find The cure to what makes this soul ache so In you I cant escape the thought that I know I've seen the way you smack your head against the wall I've wanted to be there every time to pick you up before the fall I've seen the way you walk your way right into the wolf's den Expecting this time you'll come to find a friend I've seen the start and stop of each time you've danced that dance I've never looked down on you but always given second glance The story was so great from the start Should have guessed It would be too good to be true I could never be the one meant for you Or maybe one day you'll come around to see But by then I'll no longer be The story is a scrap You're all full of crap I'll be on my way out I won't look back until I've made my way to the top Speak now or nothing you say will make me stop

i like writing you poetry - at 2 am, night lights glowing through rain streaked windows, i listen to the city and wish you'd listen to me. i like writing you poetry - angsty little love notes where every word betrays the cool countenance i otherwise wear on my face when we're warring with our words but teasing with our tongues. i like writing you poetry - it's where i can tell you the stories that belong to the dead of the night and the dead of my heart. i like writing you poetry - because it's the only way i can tell you that i love you without you ever having to know.

i like writing you poetry.
I reach out and extend my hand You take me on an expidition of my mind But warn me of the demons I may find Like a dream cast out into the day We all dance around as we beguine to laugh and play Avoid the ellaphant in the corner of the room If you look hime in the eye he'll send us all to doom Turn on all the party lights You know this is the way we make it through the nights Trapped beneath its entrancing ways I wouldn't want a thing to break my gaze Because in a way we've all got something we're running from We've all got something we're yerning to become As the ball dropped and the lights went out I became lost so I started to fill with doubt With a compass of morals and no marks on the map How would I know where to even start I beguine to feel myself tear apart A void with the gravity of 1,000 burnt out sund The black hole pulls me in on a chain Maybe too late I've already missed my my train It is not the words but the ones we do not speak They are armed to the teeth like a gun Turn on all the party lights You know this is the way we make it through the nights Trapped beneath its entrancing ways I wouldn't want a thing to break my gaze Because in a way we've all got something we're running from We've all got something we're yerning to become I feel a numbness bleed down my arm Gripped in my hand was my hunting knife Dizzy and delirious I was fearing for my life The blanket draped over my head while laying in my bed I was left wandering if I was dead As the coroner looked into my eyes I felt as my soul started to rise Out of my body out of my mind I shot off and left this whole world behind My whole entire life flashed before my eyes Apocalyptic epiphany to bring me to realize I must start moving to move on Before I could ever find my call I was forced to face losing it all Turn on all the party lights You know this is the way we make it through the nights Trapped beneath its entrancing ways I wouldn't want a thing to break my gaze Because in a way we've all got something we're running from We've all got something we're yerning to become After the light went out I found my whole life turned upside down I could not help but to beguine to frown A duplicity of yen and yang happily depressed The reality I have never confessed Hoping that one day I can turn life around So that I might beguine to smile Or at least be properly expressed I know exactly what I must do Turn on all the party lights You know this is the way we make it through the nights Trapped beneath its entrancing ways I wouldn't want a thing to break my gaze Because in a way we've all got something we're running from We've all got something we're yerning to become Resurrected I come back to life Covered with a chill dripping in cold sweat The things I've seen I could never forget Coming back down into a new year I feel as though everything becomes clear I have been here grom the beginning I'll be here untill the very end You are the one who holds the key This is something I'll always see I love you and watched as we both grow It is killing me not to know What a long strange trip it has been I'll never regreat when it all came to beguine This is the choice I made To hoping we never fade

I reach out and extend my hand You take me on an expidition of my mind But warn me of the demons I may find Like a dream cast out into the day We all dance around as we beguine to laugh and play Avoid the ellaphant in the corner of the room If you look hime in the eye he'll send us all to doom Turn on all the party lights You know this is the way we make it through the nights Trapped beneath its entrancing ways I wouldn't want a thing to break my gaze Because in a way we've all got something we're running from We've all got something we're yerning to become As the ball dropped and the lights went out I became lost so I started to fill with doubt With a compass of morals and no marks on the map How would I know where to even start I beguine to feel myself tear apart A void with the gravity of 1,000 burnt out sund The black hole pulls me in on a chain Maybe too late I've already missed my my train It is not the words but the ones we do not speak They are armed to the teeth like a gun Turn on all the party lights You know this is the way we make it through the nights Trapped beneath its entrancing ways I wouldn't want a thing to break my gaze Because in a way we've all got something we're running from We've all got something we're yerning to become I feel a numbness bleed down my arm Gripped in my hand was my hunting knife Dizzy and delirious I was fearing for my life The blanket draped over my head while laying in my bed I was left wandering if I was dead As the coroner looked into my eyes I felt as my soul started to rise Out of my body out of my mind I shot off and left this whole world behind My whole entire life flashed before my eyes Apocalyptic epiphany to bring me to realize I must start moving to move on Before I could ever find my call I was forced to face losing it all Turn on all the party lights You know this is the way we make it through the nights Trapped beneath its entrancing ways I wouldn't want a thing to break my gaze Because in a way we've all got something we're running from We've all got something we're yerning to become After the light went out I found my whole life turned upside down I could not help but to beguine to frown A duplicity of yen and yang happily depressed The reality I have never confessed Hoping that one day I can turn life around So that I might beguine to smile Or at least be properly expressed I know exactly what I must do Turn on all the party lights You know this is the way we make it through the nights Trapped beneath its entrancing ways I wouldn't want a thing to break my gaze Because in a way we've all got something we're running from We've all got something we're yerning to become Resurrected I come back to life Covered with a chill dripping in cold sweat The things I've seen I could never forget Coming back down into a new year I feel as though everything becomes clear I have been here grom the beginning I'll be here untill the very end You are the one who holds the key This is something I'll always see I love you and watched as we both grow It is killing me not to know What a long strange trip it has been I'll never regreat when it all came to beguine This is the choice I made To hoping we never fade

Just as soon as I beguine to move my lips I go and get mixed up stuck stuttering with my tongue tied Tripping all over my tone afraid to loose my speech Praying to something I don't know to make my reach I crawl my way across the ground Oh how I've beaten myself up all over again Bite your tongue boy is all I was ever told Never a saying could get more old Always being told to watch what you say Being reminded of it every single day We all have a freedom of speech But freedom really isn't free Every action faces consequence You cant ever pull without a little push on the other side These words that we speak will determine the rise or the fall These words that we speak will determine the population of us all Face your fate to overcome your greatest fear Never loose yourself through the bitterness within a year Finally I think I have conjured the strength to stay I have found the proper way to make it on my own I have found the way to unleash the power with in these words I'll broadcast my message to the world Just to make sure it makes it back to the start Bite your tongue boy is all I was ever told Never a saying could get more old Always being told to watch what you say Being reminded of it every single day We all have a freedom of speech But freedom really isn't free We are all caught up in the meaning between the lines We fall victim and start our book that redefines Forever altering the word of another Until eventually their voice we smother lost somewhere in translation We all start to insinuate and assume We pull ourselves into the same doom Misleading the words of another How could you do this to your brother We all deserve our chance at what we must say

Bite Your Tongue
Just as soon as I beguine to move my lips I go and get mixed up stuck stuttering with my tongue tied Tripping all over my tone afraid to loose my speech Praying to something I don't know to make my reach I crawl my way across the ground Oh how I've beaten myself up all over again Bite your tongue boy is all I was ever told Never a saying could get more old Always being told to watch what you say Being reminded of it every single day We all have a freedom of speech But freedom really isn't free Every action faces consequence You cant ever pull without a little push on the other side These words that we speak will determine the rise or the fall These words that we speak will determine the population of us all Face your fate to overcome your greatest fear Never loose yourself through the bitterness within a year Finally I think I have conjured the strength to stay I have found the proper way to make it on my own I have found the way to unleash the power with in these words I'll broadcast my message to the world Just to make sure it makes it back to the start Bite your tongue boy is all I was ever told Never a saying could get more old Always being told to watch what you say Being reminded of it every single day We all have a freedom of speech But freedom really isn't free We are all caught up in the meaning between the lines We fall victim and start our book that redefines Forever altering the word of another Until eventually their voice we smother lost somewhere in translation We all start to insinuate and assume We pull ourselves into the same doom Misleading the words of another How could you do this to your brother We all deserve our chance at what we must say

Whenever my eyes are closed I feel as though nothing else is around I sink in through the hole of the white rabbit No I'll never admit this to be a habit There is no shame in finding a way to escape Especially when not all the pieces can be fixed with tape For the first time ever I have found bliss in my soul For the first time ever I found the thoughts to make myself whole I have sunk through the fields of sand With nothing else to stick out then this pleading hand I will not waive my white flag even in my final moment Even as I dig this grave deeper and deeper beneath the ground Locked away with no escape for even a sound This subterranean trench beneath the earth Has brought me to start questioning my worth If nobody ever seems to come my way If nobody ever seems to want to save the day I will not fear the countdown to doom I will not submit to the shroud of gloom I have been here before I know I could do it again I'll close my eyes and for the moment I pretend For so long I have looked around and found so many seats to fill The doctors have told me to take their little pill To situate the demons restlessly residing on my mind But I just don't want to end up that way Not another over night hospital stay For you to tell me how you know my thoughts better then me I can find a way on my own and you will eventually see That hour glass has never been a friend of mine I've always seemed to face this struggle with time Overwhelmed with the stress of seeking the sublime Wondering just how much longer it may take If nobody ever seems to come my way If nobody ever seems to want to save the day I will not fear the countdown to doom I will not submit to the shroud of gloom I have been here before I know I could do it again I'll close my eyes and for the moment I pretend In the final moment when all seems it will surly fail From this coffin you'll take out every nail I'll emerge from the cloud of smoke A phoenix with words still left to be spoke

Resurrection
Whenever my eyes are closed I feel as though nothing else is around I sink in through the hole of the white rabbit No I'll never admit this to be a habit There is no shame in finding a way to escape Especially when not all the pieces can be fixed with tape For the first time ever I have found bliss in my soul For the first time ever I found the thoughts to make myself whole I have sunk through the fields of sand With nothing else to stick out then this pleading hand I will not waive my white flag even in my final moment Even as I dig this grave deeper and deeper beneath the ground Locked away with no escape for even a sound This subterranean trench beneath the earth Has brought me to start questioning my worth If nobody ever seems to come my way If nobody ever seems to want to save the day I will not fear the countdown to doom I will not submit to the shroud of gloom I have been here before I know I could do it again I'll close my eyes and for the moment I pretend For so long I have looked around and found so many seats to fill The doctors have told me to take their little pill To situate the demons restlessly residing on my mind But I just don't want to end up that way Not another over night hospital stay For you to tell me how you know my thoughts better then me I can find a way on my own and you will eventually see That hour glass has never been a friend of mine I've always seemed to face this struggle with time Overwhelmed with the stress of seeking the sublime Wondering just how much longer it may take If nobody ever seems to come my way If nobody ever seems to want to save the day I will not fear the countdown to doom I will not submit to the shroud of gloom I have been here before I know I could do it again I'll close my eyes and for the moment I pretend In the final moment when all seems it will surly fail From this coffin you'll take out every nail I'll emerge from the cloud of smoke A phoenix with words still left to be spoke

Right now I am not so sure that I really even know The way that the surface may actually appear The roads ahead may bend and break Shifting me off of my course to parts unknown For the time that I have I'll just sit back and try to enjoy this ride Never really necessarily seeking a place to reside Just living the moments trying to make the best of each situation I have packed and locked away all of these emotional bags that I have Taken the mental cobwebs right out of my mind Left shattered little pieces of the past behind Set out so desperately seeking the path to another life Though at times the road may leave you feeling so alone I know the truth, that there is always more room to be grown I know the truth, that these roads can take you anywhere At times I will admit I feel as though I have gone and lost my way The fog settles and beguines to touch the ground darkness falls and beguines to spread all around Still with my will I will take this journey one step after another Never letting go of hope with each new back slide I'll light up the way with a box of matches and tank of gas A line made of fire my demons could never pass I have felt it from the time that I first set out I've just never been the one to shout I always find them crawling right at my back Climbing out of the corners preparing for any chance of an attack The second that I let my guard down They will take me to the bottom left to drown Set behind in a self destructive way Honestly this is no place for me to play I will not let it draw me back in I would not even know where to beguine I hold no resentment for the past even though I'd love it if the moments would last But there is no need to look back in shame There is nowhere to place any of the blame What a beautiful memory now that we have I'll have expression painted across my face It is not safe the ways that I think Crossing off existence with the flutter of every blink I have made this life what it has come to be I am so sorry that sooner I could not see

Roadway to Recovery
Right now I am not so sure that I really even know The way that the surface may actually appear The roads ahead may bend and break Shifting me off of my course to parts unknown For the time that I have I'll just sit back and try to enjoy this ride Never really necessarily seeking a place to reside Just living the moments trying to make the best of each situation I have packed and locked away all of these emotional bags that I have Taken the mental cobwebs right out of my mind Left shattered little pieces of the past behind Set out so desperately seeking the path to another life Though at times the road may leave you feeling so alone I know the truth, that there is always more room to be grown I know the truth, that these roads can take you anywhere At times I will admit I feel as though I have gone and lost my way The fog settles and beguines to touch the ground darkness falls and beguines to spread all around Still with my will I will take this journey one step after another Never letting go of hope with each new back slide I'll light up the way with a box of matches and tank of gas A line made of fire my demons could never pass I have felt it from the time that I first set out I've just never been the one to shout I always find them crawling right at my back Climbing out of the corners preparing for any chance of an attack The second that I let my guard down They will take me to the bottom left to drown Set behind in a self destructive way Honestly this is no place for me to play I will not let it draw me back in I would not even know where to beguine I hold no resentment for the past even though I'd love it if the moments would last But there is no need to look back in shame There is nowhere to place any of the blame What a beautiful memory now that we have I'll have expression painted across my face It is not safe the ways that I think Crossing off existence with the flutter of every blink I have made this life what it has come to be I am so sorry that sooner I could not see

Come and take a walk with me if you will But I'll warn you I'll never stop at the sight of a hill Some days there may be mountains to climb I'll continue to make my way Until I find my self at the highest reach of the sky If I told you I don't feel the same faced with each task it would be a lie You know I have seen the cause and result of your scars Every chance I get I try to wash it all away with wishes on all the stars I'll set myself on fire and shoot across the midnight sky Just for a chance to bring back your hope I swear I'd do everything that I can to become your shooting star Though at times I may need to send myself to distances so far To make it so much better whenever I bring myself back down to earth Just know this everything that I do is a product of these thoughts of you When I was left desolate and all alone Feeling the feeling as hope begun to escape Lost as darkness begun to drape That is when I found exactly where I belong Living my life manifesting the meanings between these lines of each song The only place ever where I felt there could be no wrong Weather I am alone or manage to make my way with you I'll find a way to heights brand new Never leaving you behind along the way Ill always give you the choice to go or to stay With bare hands worked to the bone Brick by brick I'll find a way to construct this home Four walls that will all come to meet With a spirit that could never claim defeat Filled or empty some way I'll just know exactly how To go on about my days But I'd be lying if I said you'd never cross my mind You are the source my happiness can find No matter what the world brings my way As the years beguine to progress And everything we remembers beguines to suddenly change I'll make sure to keep a copy so you will never become somebody so strange I simply could not ever dare to beguine to let you go With all the stories and events we have come to know I wouldn't or even couldn't turn my back on you I'd do everything to lift you up off the ground Even when my pride is nowhere to be found I will fill this rocket with the richest of fuel Aim it at the sky destination outer space If it can not be found here I'll search every reach of that place For the key to lock away the secrets of Pandora's box If I can not find it I'll break off all of the locks Unleash this devastating state that I've been left in Wondering when the end of the world would finally beguine I cant even manage to stand up anymore An outcast on the sides of the lines that you drew Silenced with out a voice left to intervene These thoughts I need to say may be viewed as so obscene I only ever wanted to do what was best for you Every vision I've ever dreamed was to bright you to a higher places I want to take you beyond the expanse of the highest space Come and take a walk with me if you will But I'll warn you I'll never stop at the sight of a hill Some days there may be mountains to climb I'll continue to make my way Until I find my self at the highest reach of the sky If I told you I don't feel the same faced with each task it would be a lie Just know never to be afraid to ask me for a hand I'll always do everything to make sure you can stand

Set Destination Unknown
Come and take a walk with me if you will But I'll warn you I'll never stop at the sight of a hill Some days there may be mountains to climb I'll continue to make my way Until I find my self at the highest reach of the sky If I told you I don't feel the same faced with each task it would be a lie You know I have seen the cause and result of your scars Every chance I get I try to wash it all away with wishes on all the stars I'll set myself on fire and shoot across the midnight sky Just for a chance to bring back your hope I swear I'd do everything that I can to become your shooting star Though at times I may need to send myself to distances so far To make it so much better whenever I bring myself back down to earth Just know this everything that I do is a product of these thoughts of you When I was left desolate and all alone Feeling the feeling as hope begun to escape Lost as darkness begun to drape That is when I found exactly where I belong Living my life manifesting the meanings between these lines of each song The only place ever where I felt there could be no wrong Weather I am alone or manage to make my way with you I'll find a way to heights brand new Never leaving you behind along the way Ill always give you the choice to go or to stay With bare hands worked to the bone Brick by brick I'll find a way to construct this home Four walls that will all come to meet With a spirit that could never claim defeat Filled or empty some way I'll just know exactly how To go on about my days But I'd be lying if I said you'd never cross my mind You are the source my happiness can find No matter what the world brings my way As the years beguine to progress And everything we remembers beguines to suddenly change I'll make sure to keep a copy so you will never become somebody so strange I simply could not ever dare to beguine to let you go With all the stories and events we have come to know I wouldn't or even couldn't turn my back on you I'd do everything to lift you up off the ground Even when my pride is nowhere to be found I will fill this rocket with the richest of fuel Aim it at the sky destination outer space If it can not be found here I'll search every reach of that place For the key to lock away the secrets of Pandora's box If I can not find it I'll break off all of the locks Unleash this devastating state that I've been left in Wondering when the end of the world would finally beguine I cant even manage to stand up anymore An outcast on the sides of the lines that you drew Silenced with out a voice left to intervene These thoughts I need to say may be viewed as so obscene I only ever wanted to do what was best for you Every vision I've ever dreamed was to bright you to a higher places I want to take you beyond the expanse of the highest space Come and take a walk with me if you will But I'll warn you I'll never stop at the sight of a hill Some days there may be mountains to climb I'll continue to make my way Until I find my self at the highest reach of the sky If I told you I don't feel the same faced with each task it would be a lie Just know never to be afraid to ask me for a hand I'll always do everything to make sure you can stand
