The addicting taste of nicotine,
it lingers in your mouth,
it says last night you've been no good,
You've spent the whole night out.
Your stomach has turned up- and down,
Your wallet was left in town.
You can't recall how you got here,
It was the best night of the year!

Telltale signs say you did fight,
you can see it 'round your eye.
You can only pray and wish,
that you didn't break and cry.
Pains and aches are everywhere,
From top to toe, and in your hair,
Last night you had no single care,
it was the best night of the year!

You met many people, made new friends,
Just like it was before.
Who knew that some chemicals,
could open such a door.
Today you choose to lay in bed,
With an everlasting aching head,
But you don't have a single regret
it was the best night ever yet!
You've lost your sobriety down the well.
You've been walking funny, I can tell.
Don't invite me I don't want to go,
don't walk slow,
you'll lose your glow.
And one day you will find,
that all of those who've been kind.
They're going to take off, when you lose your mind

You lost all of your ambitions down the well,
with them all your money and friends fell.
No more you know where to stay,
but anyway,
you feel okay.
You just stay there and sit,
You don't even know you've lost your wit.
Because all you're chasing now, is another hit.

You've lost who you are down the well,
what used to be your name doesn't ring a bell.
You don't realize that you have lost it all,
no one gave you a call,
you didn't feel the fall.
Now you're trapped in hell,
living in a shell,
You've thrown away all you've known, down the well.
You can't act as you please,
eyes aren't at ease,
when everyone knows who you are.
Your image is your mold,
you have to do what you're told,
when everyone knows who you are.

So if you are shy,
give it a try,
to go and rewrite your label.
Make hate into love,
praise rain from above,
just hope that you will be able.
Because it's written in ink,
to ensure that you sink,
when you try to swim away far.
The chain has a range,
that you cannot change,
when everyone knows who you are.

Go write a speech,
new heights you can reach,
when nobody knows who you are.
Your label is blank,
you've got no one to thank,
when nobody knows are you are.

So if you were shy,
you can be the guy,
for no one has written your label.
An image of hate,
is yours to create,
if you wish, for right now you're able.
For now you're unknown,
and standing alone,
and you can now travel very far.
For you've got no chain,
you've got a lifetime to gain,
when nobody knows who you are.
You change the colors of my sky,
my eternal canvas high.
When you stand still the weather turns  gray,
I'd give the world to take back the day.
But every time the sun is shining,
in the summer wind, I will be finding,
is that you're in motion and that is why,
you change the colors of my sky.
She's in my presence,
she's in my brain,
she's what crowds my thoughts,
and drives me insane.
Sometimes i wish i held back,
for I've fallen in craze,
when she's gone my world's stallin',
when she's there I just gaze.

It cannot be healthy,
it's what I dismay,
it's the danger of loving,
when no heart is to gain.
for when I fall I fall hard,
but that's not absurd,
and when I do I stay long,
try to make her my bird.

Even when it's a dead end,
even if there's none,
even when my hope's down,
I stick around, which is dumb.
'bout me she's not thinking,
In her mind I'm not there,
I'm somewhere in her storage,
to be brought out as a spare.

Every nice guy recieves a duty,
for every girl he hangs around;
Every nice guy pursues the beauty,
who someone has already found.
It's really a sad matter;
It's not what is meant to be,
Seems like I'm stuck trying,
But one day I'll be free.

Your eyes have lost the spark
That once lit up my mind
What roared for some time ago
is now a quiet of a kind
It is such a pity
That whatever's gone wrong
your engine's lost its' fuel
your throat's lost its' song

Your lips have lost the smirk
That once drew me much near
I do want to reignite it
For with it I can't compare
But if I had my wish
Would you stop being locked
Open your doors
For hours I've knocked

You and I are a candle
That's about to fade out
Can't we hold on until the morning
Then we can see with no doubt
But give me some fuel
And hold off the breeze
When you and I come crashing
my world it will freeze

Your branches are reclining
And your wall I can't climb
It is steadily rising
You won't give me time
But if this is your wish
It's time for my going
To find another lightsource
With a shine that's more glowing
Give me one last chance
To give this world a glance
To memorize this eve
Tell me, my friend
Should this really end?
Why should I believe?

That the trees are green
that I have been
'til this hour oblivious
That I have not seen

August has come
Fall's already begun
Already on leaves I am walking
They rain will soon fall
Don't know how long the skies will stall
And to myself I am talking

Because I won't explain
I will look insane
To people passing my way
They won't think I'm okay

I'm feeling sick
No more flowers to pick
They might have already been pluck
I can't win the gaze
Or people amaze
For with no flowers I am stuck

The path I stride
Or with a bike I ride
Is lacking my treasure
Should I walk the other side?
