Track Lyrics

This Is Gonna Hurt Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I’ve been living for too long

With a feeling something’s wrong

Like a thorn stuck in my side

Just out of reach for me to pull it out

Now the picture’s crystal clear

I can see that the end is near

We no longer to have pretend

All things have got to come to an end

[Chorus]

This is gonna hurt

This is gonna hurt you

More than it hurts me

And I don’t wanna hurt

That’s why I’m gonna hurt you

That’s how it’s gonna be

[Verse 2]

And they say what doesn’t kill you

Well, I’m sure you know the rest

If you’d shut up for a second

I could get this off my chest

Cause I’ve been though way too much

And we’ve grown so out of touch

Now we can’t see eye to eye

It’s time to kiss it goodbye

[Chorus]

This is gonna hurt

This is gonna hurt you

More than it hurts me

And I don’t wanna hurt

That’s why I’m gonna hurt you

That’s how it’s gonna be

This is gonna hurt you

That’s how it’s gonna be

This is gonna hurt you

[Bridge]

Can’t you see the writing on the wall?

One more step before I end it all

Closing my eyes, holding my breath

Finish it now, get it over with

[Chorus]

This is gonna hurt

This is gonna hurt you

More than it hurts me

And I don’t wanna hurt

That’s why I’m gonna hurt you

That’s how it’s gonna be

[Outro]

That’s how it’s gonna be

You Before Me Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Tell me everything you need

All the secrets that you keep

Even if it takes all day

Even if it takes all night

[Verse 2]

I can put the world on hold

So you and I can be alone

Even if it takes all day

Even if it takes all night

[Chorus]

I would do anything for you

I always will put you before me

You before me

And everything I’ll ask of you

I always will put you before me

You before me

[Verse 3]

Lay your head down next to mine

By your side I feel alive

Tell me that you’ll stay all day

Tell me that you’ll stay all night

[Chorus]

I would do anything for you

I always will put you before me

You before me

And everything I’ll ask of you

I always will put you before me

You before me

[Break]

Say the word and I’ll be there

[Verse 4]

Tell me everything you need

All the secrets we can keep

Even if it takes all day

Even if it takes all night

[Chorus]

I would do anything for you

I always will put you before me

You before me

And everything I’ll ask of you

I always will put you before me

You before me

Say the word and I’ll be there

The Fallen Lyrics

2 ContributorsThe Fallen LyricsEverything I know will change, I'll never be the same

So I'm told as a voice repeats "Again, again and again"

What if it doesn't feel like everyone said it should?

What have I become?

How'd I fall so far, now no one can find me

Realize in a moment my ambition is a curse

'Cause it hides all the best in me, but shows the worst

How'd I fall so far, now no one can find me

There's nothing behind me, to take me back to start

Can someone remind me, of who that I used to be?

I can't seem to wake up from this dream

I can't catch my breath enough to scream

Be careful what you wish for

'Cause your wishes may not be what they seem

How'd I fall so far now no one can find me

There's nothing behind me

To take me back to start

Can someone rewind me, to who that I used to be?

To who that I used to be

(What if it doesn't feel like everyone said it should)

What have I become?

Can You Save Me? Lyrics

3 ContributorsCan You Save Me? LyricsI've been here before and I don't like it

I'm trying to find where I went wrong

'Cause I never want to feel the way I do right now ever again

Totally lost and all alone

Can you save me?

Can you save me from myself?

Cause I've lost it all again

And I think maybe

You're the one who can pull me out

Of the holes I always dig

I said it before and always mean it

I promised this time will be the last

'Cause just when I thought that I've come so far from who I used to be

There's no escaping from my past

Can you save me?

Can you save me from myself?

Cause I've lost it all again

And I think maybe

You're the one who can pull me out

Of the holes I always dig

You're the one who can pull me out

One step forward

Two steps backward

One step forward

Two steps backward

Why, do I do this to myself?

Can you save me?

Can you save me from myself?

Cause I've lost it all again

And I think maybe

You're the one who can pull me out

Of the holes I always dig

No Destination Lyrics

3 ContributorsNo Destination LyricsI run away

Through the dark and empty space

Where the wind will erase your memory

Here in the black there is no turning back

It's the only place where I can get away

This is where I know I'm safe

The Road is my escape

A hiding place from you under the sky

There's nowhere else I'd rather be

The moonlight blankets me

The stars will be my company tonight

The further I run

The more that I become

Weightless and numb to hurting

Worries and fears hold no gravity here

It's the only place it all makes sense to me

This is where I know I'm safe

The Road is my escape

A hiding place from you under the sky

There's nowhere else I'd rather be

The moonlight blankets me

The stars will be my company tonight

No destination

I have found the core inside the storm

No destination

I have found the core inside the storm

This is where I know I'm safe

The Road is my escape

A hiding place from you under the sky

There's nowhere else I'd rather be

The moonlight blankets me

The stars will be my company tonight

No destination

I have found the core inside the storm

Slow Down Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Sometimes I forget to breathe

Life can be overwhelming

Always pushing and pulling me

Away from what really matters

And I, keep forgetting, to remind myself

I keep forgetting, to remind myself

[Chorus 1]

Slow down

No one ever said, this journey was a race

What's the hurry?

Slow down

I'll go anywhere, I want at my own pace

Without a worry, I've gotta slow down

[Verse 2]

It's never easy letting go

When the feeling is so unfamiliar

Of always being in control

Maybe it's an illusion

[Chorus 2]

Slow down

No one ever said, this journey was a race

What's the hurry?

Slow down

I'll go anywhere, I want at my own pace

Without a worry

[Post-Chorus]

Slow down, let go now

Slow down

Slow down, let go now

Slow down

[Bridge]

I hope that it's not too late

'Cause everything's all a blur

On and on, on and on

I hope that it's not too late

'Cause everything's all a blur

On and on, on and on

I keep forgetting, to remind myself [x15]

[Outro]

(Slow down)

(No one ever said, this journey was a race)

(What's the hurry?)

(Slow down)

(I'll go anywhere, I want at my own pace)

(Without a worry, I've gotta slow down)

I keep forgetting, to remind myself [x5]

No Win Situation Lyrics

2 ContributorsNo Win Situation LyricsI love the way that you show me

The way you show me you love me

The way you always break me down

Manipulate and control me

Because you think that you owe me

Like you're the one who wears the crown

Not a day goes by I can be without you

But you're driving me insane

So tell me why can't I just let you go

Damned if I do, damned if I don't

I'm trapped in a no win, a no win situation

I know that you're no good for me

Poisonous but I can't leave

I'm trapped in a no win, a no win situation

I hate the way I forgive you

I wish that I could forget you

But my addiction takes control

I'm sick of making excuses

For all your lies and abuses

I'd be better off alone

Not a day goes by I can be without you

But you're driving me insane

Why can't I just let you go

Damned if I do, damned if I don't

I'm trapped in a no win, a no win situation

I know that you're no good for me

Poisonous but I can't leave

I'm trapped in a no win, a no win situation

Damned if I do

Damned if I don't

I can't let you go

Not a day goes by I can be without you

But you're driving me insane

Why can't I just let you go

Damned if I do, damned if I don't

I'm trapped in a no win, a no win situation

I know that you're no good for me

Poisonous but I can't leave

I'm trapped in a no win, a no win situation

Sing What You Can’t Say Lyrics

2 ContributorsSing What You Can’t Say LyricsRight now it's hard for me

To let go and open up

To tell you how I feel

And what I'm thinking of

I know it hardly shows

It doesn't mean that I'm not trying

Three little words

One simple thing

I never get it right

So here I am

Singing what I just can't say

Need you to understand

I love you doesn't quite explain

So I'm gonna sing what I can't say

I'm not the type to wear my heart upon my sleeve

I'm not an open book for everyone to read

And I hope you don't confuse

My silence for just not caring

Three little words

Should say it all

They just won't do tonight

So here I am

Singing what I just can't say

Need you to understand

I love you doesn't quite explain

So I'm gonna sing what I can't say

It's such a simple thing to say

Somehow it doesn't quite explain

No it never comes out right

So here I am

Singing what I just can't say

Need you to understand

I love you doesn't quite explain

So I'm gonna sing

Here I stand

Singing what I just can't say

I'll do the best I can

I love you doesn't quite explain

So I'm gonna sing what I can't say

Magnolia Lyrics

4 ContributorsMagnolia LyricsI watch and wonder

As you discover

I'm hoping that I find

Something that reminds me of myself

And I keep hearing

How these days are fleeting

So I try to lock away

Every memory

Magnolia

These days won't last forever

Magnolia

So the moments we're together

Mean everything

And with every blessing

Night and day I'm asking

Oh for just a little more

There never is enough

Magnolia

These days won't last forever

Magnolia

So the moments we're together

Mean everything

It's like there's no one around

When you're holding my hand in a crowd

It's like there's no one around

When you're holding my hand in a crowd

No one

And I know there'll be a day

I'll be giving you away

Until then I'm holding on

Magnolia

These days won't last forever

Magnolia

So the moments we're together

Mean everything

Magnolia

Incomplete Lyrics

2 ContributorsIncomplete LyricsHaven't known you long enough

But now I'm seeing why

You're always on my mind

No one else has ever made me open up my eyes

You're the one that made me realize, realize

I've been incomplete

Missing a part of me

Blinded by the fear of something new

But now I see

All along what's missing has been you

Try to find a missing piece

To fill a hole in me

A lonely mystery

Thought I had it figured out

But then you came along

And with just a look

I knew that I was wrong, I was wrong

I've been incomplete

Missing a part of me

Blinded by the fear of something new

But now I see

All along what's missing has been you

I'm feeling things I never knew existed

And now I know I'll never be the same

This changes everything

Haven't known you long enough

But now I'm seeing why

You're the one that's always on my mind

You're the one that made me realize

Realize

I've been incomplete

Missing a part of me

Blinded by the fear of something new

But now I see

You were all that's missing

And you're here with me

I'm no longer incomplete

I can see the clear and simple truth

For me to be

Complete I only have to be with you

For me to be

Complete I only have to be with you

A Thousand Words Lyrics

[Verse 1]

It's hard to say goodbye

And leave a part of me

These walls will hold so many memories

Underneath my smile

Holding back a scream

Packing up a box of broken dreams

[Chorus]

A thousand words

Trapped inside of me

A thousand words

[Verse 2]

In the rear view mirror

I slowly disappear

On this road the dust they never clear

I wish I had a choice

I wish that I could stay

I wish I had a voice so I could say

[Chorus]

A thousand words

Trapped inside of me

A thousand words

[Chorus]

A thousand words

Trapped inside of me

A thousand words

[Instrumental intermezzo]

[Chorus]

A thousand words

Trapped inside of me

A thousand words

[Chorus]

A thousand words

Trapped inside of me

A thousand words
