First Time Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I had never thought
We were hangin' on
But the fall looks very far
Staring at the ground
What flesh will do to you
Will do to me too
Be free and on your own
[Pre-Chorus 1]
It's not that simple, it's not that simple
It's never that simple
[Chorus]
It feels like the first time
That we've fallen behind and
We faltered too far down
No one could save us
It feels like the first time
And we're standing above them
And no one can touch us
The worst is over
The worst is over
[Verse 2]
I could say to you
A bitter word or two
There's no stopping now
Just get it out in the air
Heard it through the fog
And hurt by it all
I'd take it back today
[Pre-Chorus 2]
But it's out of my hands, it's out of my hand
But it's out of my hands
[Chorus]
It feels like the first time
That we've fallen behind and
We faltered too far down
No one could save us
It feels like the first time
And we're standing above them
And no one can touch us
The worst is over
[Bridge]
Lost in the film again
All the signs were showing
Watching a single frame when the wind begins
You're never anywhere
Cause you're caught in my weather
Caught in my weather every time
Feels like the first time
We've fallen behind
No use is the other one to wait
And I can hold on
As sure as I'm strong
Get over the faithfull yesterdays...
Yeah... days..... yeah.....
[Chorus]
It feels like the first time
That we've fallen behind and
We faltered too far down
No one could save us
It feels like the first time
And we're standing above them
And no one can touch us
The worst is over
It feels like the first time
That we've fallen behind and
We faltered too far down
No one could save us
It feels like the first time
And we're standing above them
And no one can touch us
The worst is over
The worst is over
The worst is over...
Drag You Down Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's biting, it's teething, it's biting, I'm bleeding
It's calling, it's crawling, it's calling and I'm falling
[Chorus]
The perfect sound of middle ground
Pull me under before I try to drag you down
Someone has to pull me under before
I try and drag you, drag you, drag you down
[Verse 2]
They're fighting, they're growing, they're fighting and they're growing
I'm biting, I'm teething, I'm biting and bleeding
[Chorus]
The perfect sound of middle ground
Pull me under before I try to drag you down
Someone has to pull me under before
I try and drag you, drag you, drag you down
[Bridge]
Biting and teething and bleeding
[Outro]
Pull me under before I try to drag you down
Someone has to pull me under before
I try and drag you down
Someone has to pull me under before
I try and drag you down
Someone has to pull me under before
I try and drag you, drag you, drag you down
My Carousel Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Spotlights are roaming
The show will begin
But don't give my circus away
I hope it ends before you know me
I've lost it completely
My faith is lost again I'd say
I'm tired of this place and I want to go
[Chorus]
Riding my carousel
They can never tell
Riding my carousel
They can never tell
[Post-Chorus]
I'm spinning and turning
Always revolving
You should have seen it
Where were you?
I needed a stage
To walk all over you
That's better
I'm throwing my three ring away
And I can hear you say
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm tired of this place
I'm tired of this place and then I think of
[Chorus]
Riding my carousel
They can never tell
Riding my carousel
They can never tell
[Post-Chorus]
I'm spinning and turning
Always revolving
[Bridge]
Close all of the doors
Lock me away
I'm happy I'm here
So let me stay
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm tired of this place
I'm tired of this place and then I think of
[Chorus]
Riding my carousel
They can never tell
Riding my carousel
They can never tell
[Post-Chorus]
I'm spinning and turning
Always revolving
[Outro]
Spinning, turning
Always revolving
Sick of It All Lyrics
3 ContributorsSick of It All LyricsAre the sins getting staler
Does every moment move past you
Or does it feel like forever
And shouldn't you be laughing too?
Take a look how they found you
Take a look what they've done to you now
So what was it they wanted
Sullen and haunted
If only you saw it coming
How far down would you fall
If you never came up again
Cause you're so sick of it all
And you want to change everything
Just how deep would you go
To see through it all
If you could consume her
Would you say you were finding your way out?
Is anything coming clearer
Smashing your mirror?
Still you can see you're guilty
How far down would you fall
If you never came up again
Cause you're so sick of it all
And you want to change everything
Just how deep would you go
To see through it all
Coming closer my composure turning
Inside out in her
Calling home all alone
You can call I won't answer
Any question in my head
Remains until you feel the same
Never telling how I felt is all I ever cared about
How far down would you fall te
If you never came up again
Cause you're so sick of it all
And you wanna change everything
And someone somewhere should know
If you wanna come back around
Just how deep would you go
To see through it all
To see through it all
Coming closer my composure turning
Inside out in her
Calling home all alone
You can call I won't answer
Any question in my head
Remains until you feel the same
Never telling how I felt is all I ever cared about
For the Ocean Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Without it I'm failing
My heart waits in the wings alone
The stages I go through
Keep coming time and time and time again
[Pre-Chorus]
Do you wonder how I stay
So complacent
[Chorus 1]
It's like waiting for the ocean
To save you from the waves
When you're so far under
Silent
Never moving
You're never moving
[Verse 2]
You've taken your timing
So flawless executing me
So fearless and hopeful
Can you imagine such a scene?
Do you wonder how I stay
So complacent
[Chorus 2]
It's like waiting for the ocean
To save you from the waves
When you're so far under
Silent, never mind
Waiting for the needle
To take away the pain
Until finally we numb our every border
[Bridge]
Do you wonder
Did you ever wonder
How I stay
So complacent
And I stay
So complacent
[Chorus 3]
It's like waiting for the ocean
To save you from the waves
When you're so far under
Silent
Nevermind
Waiting for the needle
To take away the pain
Until finally we numb our every border
Our every border
Broken Words Lyrics
4 ContributorsBroken Words LyricsYour sweet little hands
Brush right past me
And sometimes you don't understand
Why you can't reach
I bite when I don't want to bend
How silent I can be
So she is silent too
She's the one who saw my words
Broken and torn at the seams
And broken words were all she heard
Now she's walking away from me
And some were meant
And some meant well
The difference between us is so
Hard to tell
And I was so shaken but now
All I see
Is everything she meant to me
And she's the one who saw my words
Broken and torn at the seams
And broken words were all she heard
Now she's walking away
She's the one who saw my words
Broken and torn at the seams
And broken words were all she heard
Now she's walking away
She's the one who saw my words
Broken and torn at the seams
And broken words were all she heard
Now she's walking away
And broken words were all she heard
Now she's walking away
Suffocate Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Talk to me
Can you listen to me now
Do you understand
Can you identify?
But it's as if you seem to make a small effort
But you bend you're bending my mind
And you try, and you try, I can see inside and
[Chorus 1]
Suffocate
And smother me
Covered so I can't breathe (We)
When we collapse (Fall)
Our weakened hands (Down)
Fall together at once, abandoned (We)
They'll force you down (Fall)
And strap you in (Down)
Now we'll agree and understand
[Verse 2]
Speak slowly
You gotta get it all out now
What are you saying?
Just remember we will always be here
Just in case you have been waiting
Waiting to show us something or give us some sign
As if you're gonna
[Chorus 2]
Suffocate
Or smother me
Covered so I can't breathe (We)
When we collapse (Fall)
Our weakened hands (Down)
Fall together at once, abandoned (We)
They'll force you down (Fall)
And strap you in (Down)
Now we'll agree and understand
[Bridge]
Gently lure your submission
All the while suspicion grows
So be sick of listening
To senile old and staggering naive youth
Pick us up when we fall down (We)
[Chorus 3]
When we collapse (Fall)
Our weakened hands (Down)
Fall together at once, abandoned (We)
They'll force you down (Fall)
And strap you in (Down)
Now we'll agree and understand
When we collapse (Fall)
Our weakened hands (Down)
Fall together at once, abandoned (We)
They'll force you down (Fall)
And strap you in (Down)
Now we'll agree and understand
[Outro]
Now we'll agree and understand
Bones + Joints Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Cloud my eyes and tell me what to see
I'm falling
Every way I turn the same disease
But I like it
Brace myself and hit the wall with ease
I'm colliding
I'm not minding the pain
[Chorus]
I've been down here before
All my bones and joints are sore
Pick my way out of the wreck again
I've been down here before
Lost myself and so much more
Find my way out of the game again
[Verse 2]
Open up my head and take it in
Just like always
Think about the bar and take a swing
Loaded trapeze
What you need the most from me is yours
I'll continue to deceive you my friend
[Chorus]
I've been down here before
All my bones and joints are sore
Pick my way out of the wreck again
I've been down here before
Lost myself and so much more
Find my way out of the game again
[Bridge]
And you lost what made you you
Or maybe I never knew
I can't stay here anymore
Give it all or you're on your own
I will leave you
I will leave you
I will leave you
I will leave you
[Chorus]
I've been down here before
All my bones and joints are sore
Pick my way out of the wreck again
I've been down here before
Lost myself and so much more
Find my way out of the game again
I've been down here before
All my bones and joints are sore
Pick my way out of the wreck again
I've been down here before
Lost myself and so much more
Find my way out of the game again
Famous Lyrics
2 ContributorsFamous LyricsWait, if everything's going great
Can you remember a day to tell?
If someone should wish you well
Then there's a narrow chance
All I want from you my dear friend
I've already got
I could show you
I could show you how
And you say you've got that feeling again
It won't be long enough
But it may never end I know
You say you've got that feeling again
It won't be long enough
But it may never end
Wait I thought I had something to say
I will remember someday
And Fate found you buckling under the weight
And you thought you would last
And All I got from you my dear friend
I don't even want
I could show you how
And you say you've got that feeling again
It won't be long enough
But it may never end I know
You say you've got that feeling again
It won't be long enough
But it may never end I know I know
It may never end
Follow your answers
But you look so bitter
Who are you?
Famous?
Important?
Don't stop that glitter
No No Oh No No
All I wanted from you....
Is all forgotten for you...
And you say you've got that feeling again
It won't be long enough
But it may never end I know
You say you've got that feeling again
It won't be long enough
But it may never end I know I know
It may never end
I know i know
But it may never end
I know i know
But it may never end.......
Walking in My Shoes Lyrics
2 ContributorsWalking in My Shoes LyricsI would tell you about the things
They put me through
The pain I've been subjected to
But the Lord himself would blush
The countless feasts laid at my feet
Forbidden fruits for me to eat
But I think your pulse would start to rush
Now I'm not looking for the absolution
Or forgiveness for the things I do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
Morality would frown upon
And decency look down upon
The scapegoat fate's made of me
But I tell you now, my judge and jurors
Intentions couldn't have been purer
My case is easy to see
I'm not looking for a clearer conscience
Peace of mind after what I've been through
And before we talk of any repentance
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my...
Now I'm not looking for the absolution
Or forgiveness for the things I do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
Stay and Drown Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Good God have I been dreaming
This paralyzing feeling?
Was I left alone? Where have you gone?
Were you somewhere else just sleeping?
[Pre-Chorus 1]
If I wait to wake you
I'll never ask you
[Chorus]
Would you take my hand
In the deepest end?
Would you stay and drown in me?
Take my hand
In the deepest end
My open eyes see everything
[Verse 2]
And I'm passing all the days
Through a window pane
And as the scene would change
I'd stay the same
This paradise was nothing new
But the paradise gets tired of you
[Pre-Chorus 2]
A single conversation
Stole my attention
[Chorus]
Would you take my hand
In the deepest end?
Would you stay and drown in me?
Take my hand
In the deepest end
Would you stay and drown in me?
[Instrumental Break]
[Pre-Chorus 3]
My open eyes see everything
And you see nothing
And don't forget it
[Chorus]
Take my hand
In the deepest end
Would you stay and drown in me?
Take my hand
In the deepest end
Would you stay and drown in me?
Take my hand
In the deepest end
Would you stay and drown in me?
Can you stay and drown in me?
Would you stay and drown in me?
