i think the real problem is
i was too honest with you
i thought you’d think of me
when you really only think of you
i see now i was an open book
and you read every word
but never ever showed your cover
hid behind smiles for miles
so i never even remembered to bother
to see who you really were

but some memories you can’t forget
the ones that hit your heart and hurt your head
time couldn’t even erase the hurt you’ve caused me
it scratched into my mind the worst feeling
constant digging little lines bleeding
you’ve said so many heartbreaking things
i couldn’t even begin to understand half of these
was i really that bad, are you really just that good
or is it the other way around and its all misunderstood
i’ll never understand the things you’ve done
why you wanted to destroy something so good
i feel basically empty when i think about it now
time has hardened what was left of my soul
i’m probably better off now
who knew something so silent could be seen so loud
so clear mine as well be crystal
but your the one i miss still

They say copying is the highest form of flattery
but i think its because you have no originality
always replicating what i do
is it just me
is there any thoughts inside of you
everything you do
is because of someone else
can you really not see it
how can't you tell
we all see right through it
open your eyes and you will too
stop trying to be me
and start being you

copy cat copy cat
annoying little copy rat
copy cat copy cat
mindless spineless poison trap
copy cat copy cat
shady lame copy rat
copy cat copy cat
do you have a brain in tact

Now don't get me wrong i don't think i'm anything that great
not trying to be rude this is not something i want to debate
so now do you get the whole picture
why be a sheep
when you can bite just like a wolf
you've got so much to offer so why be another
a whole entire world out there
so why even care
just be the one you are
with nothing to loose you'll go so far
i know there's more to you
parts i can't see through

I don't know what to do with myself
I can't picture you with someone else
But i gotta do me
I have a few things i need to be
A couple more places to see
Here I am, stuck in the middle again

I did so many things wrong
I pushed away your heart and forgot
what pulled us together in the first place
Was everything really a mistake
I don't know
I'm too numb to even feel right now
I wish someone would take over my mind
and remind me what's real
but here I am alone again
not knowing whether this is the beginning or the end

The more i think about it
the more ****** up it gets
i want to be alone
but there's so many voices in my head
i'd say I'm afraid
but i really don't know
i try to run away
and all i did was go

There's a monster searching for the best parts of me
he's constantly lurking wanting more from me
it's so hard to handle
it's so hard to tell
all i want to do is scream and yell
monster monster you want more
always a demon at my door

The more i think the less i know
so bittersweet so low
looking for a sign
in the stars in the sun, high in the sky
Here I am. See me.
don't i make it look easy?
A mask is easy to wear
they whisper in my ear

Life will come and life will go
Moods will fade and Thoughts will slow
There's something about me
That i hope none will ever know
But they say i'm crazy
Maybe I'm dead inside
Truth is I'll never tell
I'm very much alive

I only come out at night
cause thats the time i like
i'm not playing with any rules
so if you fall your the one who lose
its not love i'm looking for
just an escape
a key to the door

you can't get me off your mind
that's why i think its time
to open the door and run out
before you ask me what its all about
didn't think you could understand
you were an escape
a mistake i had to make

these eyes
have got you in a trance
these eyes
make you want to dance
these eyes
are far too sure to last

i'm trying not to feel bad
i don't want to be so sad
but i did what i had to do
to unlock a part of me in you
so much for going with the flow
it happened so fast
next time i'll say no

i just want to be your's for today
let time and space float away
i just want to step inside your mind
read through your thoughts like pages in time
i want a piece of you to remember
a part of you i can forever treasure
there is but a moment in our prime
so many passages to discover and unwind
the morning dew rises
and the early bird sings
fading moments drifting into memory
i'll keep the light on
you can always come inside
i'll be your shelter
when there's no where else to hide
your words flow through me
sweet music transcending in beauty
is it fate
or should we wait?
heavy heart dipped in gold
but you can sing
you are the music echoing in me

We've never had a picture together
that's why i know its not always and forever
you know i think your really clever
that all your thoughts are treasure
but then there's fate
that said just wait
and now i see
that truth is beauty

A part of me is always with you
I wanted so bad for it to be true
but loving me was never meant for you
and all you said you could never do
life told us no
so let us go
and now i see
who's best for me

sometimes its so hard not to feel
when the energy pulsing feels so real
like a vision i can see too
just a mirage i can see through
and on that day
you made me wait
all you did say
was far too late

you left me on the stairs
couldn't see you anywhere
red roses everywhere
but you weren't there
