Your eyes start to sting Just like the back of my head Where you hit me your bag when I Wished you were dead and now the Bright lights turn my thoughts from myself and I Wonder what he's thinking as he's turning his head, he says Look out I've got someone in the back saying Oh God, not like this! Please another way Praying that these head lights won't be the last lights I'll see something, but I'm looking away Muffled red light blend in with the scene And their glass cuts blood spills into the street As they run out I guess that God had better use for them Than that red truck did Look out I hear someone In the next room screaming Oh God not like this Please another way Praying that these hung lights won't be the last lights I'll see something but I'm Looking away I held your hand For the last time I felt it go limp as we died Till death do us part Look out I've got Someone in the back saying Oh God, not like this Please another way... Praying that these head lights won't be the last lights I'll see something but I'm Looking away When you said you would by my side I hoped you'd never mean it The way you meant it Oh damn it all to hell what me and you fell into I didn't need it Oh God i need you

Awake, Dear Heart And I felt your presence under the stairs, And never actually thought enough to think that I should care, But I saw you by your bedside, you were singing through your prayers, And realized you were never actually there. Oh, sweetie, tell me, where have you gone? You put away the fake act and you played your hallowed songs. I tried to find the right note and I wrote it down all wrong. Tell me you have found where you belong. I woke up with my heart torn through my chest, And cowered by the table as I shook from what you said. Unstable in insanity, the fog colored my head. In the humid air, my body felt your breath. But sweetie, beg me. Where have you gone? You put away your insides and you played your hallowed songs. I tried to find the right note, and I wrote it down all wrong. Tell me you have found where you belong.. With me. You messed up. Tried to solve the neighbor's problems, I'm a tombstone in the yard and I messed up. Tried to complicate the problems, Made a grave, and then engraved a name like You and me Are a concentrated atom In a bomb out by the harbor. At night, I weep. I'm a ghost under the mattress, and I'm coming up behind you while you Sleep for me. You're a bridge over the water That is anything but holy. And you and me, We're a pair, another love song In an album and it goes a lot like this: La da di da... Sweetie tell me, where have you gone? You put away your fake ideals, you play your hallowed songs. And I tried to find the right note, and I wrote it down all wrong. Tell me you have found where you belong. Sleep by me. I'm a ghost under your mattress and I'm Coming up behind you while you sleep.

Another accident, and accident that confidently can't be fixed. And then it hit her with a force Speeding up, as if he meant it. Will we ever turn submissive To our God and Father ran in through the door. Shook and scared, he took the stairs And walked it off under the porch. Swore to God he'd get Him back And fell or fainted on the floor. I don't want you to be someone that you're not. When you have everything, it's easy to feel loss. You could sleep or find that steeple, Chase that holy feeling Of what she branded to your brain. When it happens for a reason, can it justify the pain. And when it happens, can you wrap it up in any holy way? You can't do anything about it. You can't do anything at all. You can't do anything about it. You don't mean anything at... I don't want you to be someone that you're not. When you have everything, it's easy to feel loss. And when it happens and no one answers, You will lose your righteous way. And when you shattered, like her body, We weren't begging God to stay.

Shut You Out Good Christians that wait until marriage for sex Are the ones that keep secrets so close to their chests. We all want a statement. We want to impress. All I've got is The Lord; He's not at his best. Yeah. And I hate; you can't justify, 'Cause your money is God's and you're going to die. I wanted to go, 'cause I want to believe, But I can't ever find a reason, it seems. And we've got it bad, but I'll get it back You'll see. Breakin' a leg, Taking your meds, I think. We've all got problems. How we Just want to get away. Our fathers pass in silence. We'll find a place to stay. You wanted apathy. I Needed to make a friend. I felt your heart beat through your Letter you tried to send. The world doesn't wait 'til it's time to head out, cause We'll leave you behind. Yeah we're shutting you out. I don't want to go, 'cause I know you're naive, And a bit hypocritical after you leave. So look at me now, I need you to know that I love you until you decide you can go. You don't know ethics, your motives are weak, and I doubt Holy Ghost Is looking for me. Oh, you fell by the wayside. Oh, you fell by the wayside. I'll shut you out. Shut you out. We've all got problems. How we Just want to get away. Our fathers pass in silence. We'll find a place to stay. You wanted apathy. I Needed to make a friend. I felt your heart beat through your Letter you tried to send. And I don't know What had bit me in the leg, But I chased your ghost back home. And you thought so Up until the bottle emptied from Our evening fights alone. Shut you... We've all got problems. How we Just want to get away. Our fathers pass in silence. We'll find a place to stay. You wanted apathy. I Needed to make a friend. I felt your heart beat through your Letter you tried to send. So keep coming home. You shouldn't of asked if you wanted know. We're Still by the phone. This church is the last tie. I swear it's the last time.

The House Is Crumbling Watch Your tongue. Your mouth Is mumbling the Words You can't Put out. Are spitting out the Fire Inside Your mouth. Just let it out. Come Inside. The house Is crumbling and I'm Afraid To shout. I shake a little When- Ever You're out. Just let me out. You close your eyes to calm the Blood that's rushing through your veins. Well it doesn't really matter what you hide. Dive Into the night For me at least, it Seems Like you've Been trying. To cut it out And break Away tonight. You'll be alright. So leave While you're Alive. I'm dying but I'll Never Leave Your side. Is aching with the Angels in the sky. We leave tonight. And you're fine. You're sneaking out the window to Try to inquire the lighter again. But you've been on my case since '95. You close your eyes to calm the Blood that's rushing through your veins. Well it doesn't really matter what you hide. We were stuck inside the hotel praying That I'll swear to God if you don't know, And I'll tell him "You're the worst mixed message." And I hope to God you don't come home. Shut myself inside my bedroom praying That I cry to God if you don't show. And I'll tell him "I'm the worst mixed message", And I hope to God you take me home. I'm stuck inside your mirror. My hands are growing cold. I'm not worth anything but, Can you let me come home? I'm stuck inside your mirror. My God, it's getting cold. I'm not worth anything but, Can you let me come home? I never wanted you to fall away from me until you stumbled up the stairs, It's getting hard to breathe. And I know you've had it rough; I'm counting down the days. I can hear you say it loud, Singing, "Come at it, come at it again." You're sneaking out the window to try and Inquire the lighter again. But you've been on my case since '95. You close your eyes to cut the blood that's rushing through your veins. Well, it doesn't really matter what you hide. We were stuck inside the hotel praying.
