Track Lyrics
The Only Medicine Lyrics
[Chorus]
Oh my god there must be something
Something to take the pain away
And so there's nothing you can give me
It's probably better off that way
Just forget, all I ever wanted was to forget
Bloodshot eyes and a starless sky
Who the hell are we kidding?
You look so content, I guess the bright side hasn't found me yet
Pull me out so I can catch my breath
[Chorus]
I live my life in the shadows of the things I try to hide
[Chorus]
The World as We Know It Lyrics
6 ContributorsThe World As We Know It LyricsTime is becoming
More precious than gold
All those times wasted alone
Ohh, oh
Starving children, the poisoned waters
And the suffocating skies
We won't get another chance this time
We won't get a second chance this time
You'll be lucky if you make it out alive
Have we lost our minds?
What the hell were we all thinking?
Now they're choosing sides
This is the world
This is the world
A virus known as rage
(Rage!, Rage!, Rage!)
Is brutally destroying
And spreading all over the place
A bleeding culture
A dying nation
When the money controls the tide
We won't get another chance this time
We won't get a second chance this time
You'll be lucky if you make it out alive
Have we lost our minds?
What the hell were we all thinking?
Now they're choosing sides
This is the world as we know it
Have we lost our minds?
The tension is rising and rising
And the world is at stake
Take back what belongs to you
My God, before it's too late
Take it back!
Take it back!
Take me back!
So close your eyes
And paint the picture
The sunset staring back
Won't last forever, forever
Just close your eyes
And paint the picture
'Cause the world we could have had
Would have been better
Much better
Just close your eyes
And paint the picture
'Cause the sunset staring back
Won't last forever, forever
What's Said Is Done Lyrics
5 ContributorsWhat’s Said Is Done LyricsWe watch these days go by
The seasons changed and faded away
And the the things I've learned to love grow old and die
(no reason why, no reason why, no reason why, no reason why)
Cause life's too short to spend alone in misery
Everybody seems to look the same
I feel so alone and now my head is bowed in shame again
So I look to the heart of the devil for answers
This path is like a loaded gun
But what's said is done
You don't have to say a word
I'm so afraid to ask
I turn my back forget the past
Find me something true that is inside
I'm so afraid to ask
This solace never seems to last
I turn away as the sunshine fades to black
I spend my nights and days
Wrapped away their all the same
I don't know how much more i can take
(what's left to say, what's left to say, what's left to say, what's left to say)
Cause life's too short to spend alone in misery
This path is like a loaded gun
But what's said is done
You don't have to say a word
This path is like a loaded gun
But what's said is done
You don't have to say a word
This path is like a loaded gun
But what's said is done
You don't have to say a word
To say a word, to say a word
I'm so afraid to ask
I turn my back forget the past
Find me something true that is inside
I'm so afraid to ask
This solace never seems to last
I turn away as the sunshine fades to black
I'm so afraid to ask
I turn my back forget the past
Find me something true that is inside
This path is like a loaded gun
But what's said is done
You don't have to say a word...
The Bright Side of Suffering Lyrics
[x5]
I'm sick
And tired
Inside
I'm black and
I am hollow
I'm trying to find
What's missing form my life
And the tables have turned
This life is only temporary [x2]
Empty Glasses Lyrics
[Chorus:]
Deny it, but I am alone here
I always feared this place
I never thought it'd end this way
Deny it, but I am alone
Another nameless face
Deny it, but I am alone here
I always feared this place
I never thought it'd end this way
Deny it, but I am alone
Please don't forget my name
Deny it, but I am alone
Empty pages haunt me and
I can't move on
The words I never said were wrong
I never needed to feel connected
And now I'm only loved by empty glasses
It's gone on too long
I need to find a way to just move on
[Chorus:]
Deny it, but I am alone here
I always feared this place
I never thought it'd end this way
Deny it, but I am alone
Another nameless face
Deny it, but I am alone here
I always feared this place
I never thought it'd end this way
Deny it, but I am alone
Please don't forget my name
Deny it, but I am alone
I'm tired of you wishing me the best of luck
It's a long ride home, a long ride home
[Chorus:]
Deny it, but I am alone here
I always feared this place
I never thought it'd end this way
Deny it, but I am alone
Another nameless face
Deny it, but I am alone here
I always feared this place
I never thought it'd end this way
Deny it, but I am alone
Please don't forget my name
Deny it, but I am alone
Faith in the Knife Lyrics
3 ContributorsFaith in the Knife LyricsIt's getting colder, each and every day
The nights get longer, I slowly fade
Find me some beauty in this deceptive place
Before you know it, I'll be gone without a trace
Give me a reason to wake up and face the lie
I've been searching for a way out of this life
How will I make it through this long and bitter night?
With no hope that I'll find a sign
No hope that I'll find a sign
When things like breathing feel like a waste
It seems like leaving's the only way
The past intentions, they never got me by
I can't escape this, it has overcome my mind
The past intentions, they never got me by
I can't escape this, it has overcome my mind
It has overcome my mind
It has overcome my mind
It has overcome my mind
Overcome my mind
Give me a reason to wake up and face the lie
I've been searching for a way out of this life
How will I make it through this long and bitter night?
With no hope that I'll find a sign
No hope that I'll find a sign
Give me a reason to wake up and face the lie
I've been searching for a way out of this life
How will I make it through this long and bitter night?
With no hope that I'll find a sign
No hope that I'll find a sign
No hope that I'll find a sign
No hope that I'll find a sign
Nothing this good could last forever
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
I put all my faith in this knife
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
The lust feels like the tears fall from your eyes
I hope for the best
There's nothing left
Let's celebrate a romance in it all
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
I put all my faith in this knife
Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
The lust feels like the tears fall from your eyes
A Breath of Sunshine Lyrics
2 ContributorsA Breath of Sunshine LyricsLost myself in an endless goodnight
Kept the time by the patterns of the streetlight
Couldn't get it right
I could never get it right
Sadly, this is a wasted conversation
Lost on you, lost on you
This is a test of my patience
Your blue eyes are so cruel
I can't escape all the things we said
I'm taking years off my life with the weight of regret
Now there's nothing left
There is nothing left to lose
Shouldn't I feel all right?
I swear that I tried
To be alright
To sleep at night
Shouldn't I feel all right?
The night fades with a breath of sunshine
I'll do my best to adjust to the morning light
I can't keep my place (Can't keep my place)
Feels like I've been awake for days
Sadly, you turn away and now I'm faced
With the harsh truth, the harsh truth
My cold heart is a place where true love cannot bloom
Shouldn't I feel all right?
I swear that I tried
To be alright
To sleep at night
Shouldn't I feel all right?
There's static on the airwaves
I'll try to find the light through all this haze
I can't find the words that I'm trying to say
So try to forget me as I walk away
There's static on the airwaves. (There's static on the airwaves.)
There's static on the airwaves. (There's static on the airwaves.)
So try to forget me as I walk away
Shouldn't I feel all right?
I swear that I tried
To be alright
To sleep at night
Shouldn't I feel all right?
Shouldn't I feel all right?
I swear that I tried
To be alright
To sleep at night
Shouldn't I feel all right?
