Eyes Wide Open Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The hating and the waiting, hesitating
I just wanna be done with you
Faking for the taking but I'm waking
Up to the fact that you're lying and denying
Justifying all the actions you take
It's pathetic and poetic
[Pre-Chorus]
It's just sick
It's just sick
[Chorus]
Is compromise something you don't understand?
You force your hand but my eyes are wide open
Caught in the web of your self-serving plan
Don't force my hand when my eyes are wide open
[Verse 2]
Seeing is believing, now I'm leaving
All the damage is done
You've broken any notion of trust
Cause you're lying and denying
Justifying all the actions you take
It's pathetic and poetic
[Pre-Chorus]
It's just sick!
It's just sick!
[Chorus]
Is compromise something you don't understand?
You force your hand but my eyes are wide open
Caught in the web of your self-serving plan
Don't force my hand when my eyes are wide open
[Bridge]
Seeing is believing, now I'm leaving
All the damage is done
All the damage done!
[Guitar Solo]
[Breakdown]
All the damage done!
[Chorus]
Is compromise something you don't understand?
You force your hand but my eyes are wide open
Caught in the web of your self-serving plan
Don't force my hand when my eyes are wide open
[Outro]
Don't force my hand when my eyes are wide open
(Force my hand…)
(Eyes are wide open…)
The lying and denying is just sick
The lying and denying is just sick
It's just sick
Not Again Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Do you feel like you're falling?
You've taken this step
In front of you, is further from the truth
And you fall apart in front of me again
[Pre-Chorus]
Again!
Denial isn’t the way to forgiveness
You always swore that I was wrong!
[Chorus]
Not again
No taste for the crow you feed me
Not again
It’s not a matter of if I care
Not again
What an intricate web you're weaving
Again and again
[Verse 2]
So you tried not to follow
While the clock fails to sleep
So here we are, back where it began
And toe to toe I stand in front of you again
[Pre-Chorus]
Again!
Denial isn’t the way to forgiveness
You always swore that I was wrong!
[Chorus]
Not again
No taste for the crow you feed me
Not again
It’s not a matter of if I care
Not again
What an intricate web you're weaving
Again and again
Not again
No taste for the crow you feed me
Not again
It’s not a matter of if I care
Not again
What an intricate web you're weaving
Again and again
[Outro]
Again!
Again!
Failing Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yeah, like the threat of the darkest clouds rollin' in on a sunny day
Yeah, like a field that has no rain
Yeah, like a dog that wanders aimless, with no name
Yeah, like a cut without the pain
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, you couldn't feel this?
You couldn't take the pain?
Yeah, you couldn't live this?
[Chorus]
And I'm just trying to get through to you
And I am failing
Lie like I'm not even here
My heart is breaking
Trying to see through your stare
It looks right through me
I smile and pretend I'm not there
To keep from going crazy
[Verse 2]
Yeah, like the day that your guardian angel decided to fly away
Yeah, like a bruise that doesn't fade
Yeah, like a memory that tortures your soul until your dying day
Yeah, like the life you couldn't save
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, you couldn't feel this?
You couldn't take the pain?
Yeah, you couldn't live this?
[Chorus]
And I'm just trying to get through to you
And I am failing
Lie like I'm not even here
My heart is breaking
Trying to see through your stare
It looks right through me
I smile and pretend I'm not there
To keep from going crazy
[Bridge]
I've tried to get through to you
I've tried to, I'm trying
I've tried to, get through to you
I've tried to
[Chorus]
And I'm still trying to get through to you
And I am failing
Lie like I'm not even here
My heart is breaking
Trying to see through your stare
It looks right through me
I smile and pretend I'm not there
To keep from going crazy
[Outro]
I've tried to get through to you
I've tried to
I've tried to get through to you
I've tried to get through
I've tried to get through to you
I've tried to
Wannabe Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm sellin' records, what is it that you do?
Sittin' in your momma's basement with a Shih Tzu
Peanut butter on your dick, right hand goin' click
With your left hand, givin' you a rimjob
So now you wanna talk about me?
Whose name is on the marquee?
You hate everything that you can't be
I've heard enough, man, fuck
[Pre-Chorus]
You're just a solo, turncoat rockstar
Pussy, poser, popstar
[Chorus]
Because you're nothin' but a wannabe
It's so easy when you're faceless
Why don't you focus on your misery
Instead of focusing on me?
[Verse 2]
So number two, that's right, what is it you're rollin'
Now that your momma's Ford Focus got stolen?
But it don't matter, cause you got nowhere ta go
So back to the hatin', frantic masturbatin'
So now you wanna talk about me?
You know, the songs that you download for free?
You hate everything that you can't be
I've heard enough, man, fuck
[Pre-Chorus]
You're just a solo, turncoat, popstar
Pussy, poser, rockstar
[Chorus]
Because you're nothin' but a wannabe
It's so easy when you're faceless
Why don't you focus on your misery
Instead of focusing on me?
[Bridge]
So number two, that's right, what is it you're rollin'
Now that your momma's Ford Focus got stolen?
But it don't matter, cause you got nowhere ta go
So back to the hatin', frantic masturbatin'
So now you wanna talk about me?
So now you wanna talk about me?
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Because you're nothin' but a wannabe
It's so easy when you're faceless
Why don't you focus on your misery
Instead of focusing on me?
Nothing but a wannabe (instead of focusing on me)
It's so easy when you're faceless
Why don't you focus on your misery
Instead of focusing on me?
[Outro]
I'm sellin' records, what is it that you do?
Sittin' in your momma's basement
I'm sellin' records, what is it that you do?
I'm sellin' records
Throw It All Away Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It doesn't feel like this is over
It's never felt like it's begun
Always looking over my shoulder
Waiting for the end to come
[Chorus]
And then you throw it all away
Throw it all away
Nothing I could say
Throw it all away
[Verse 2]
And you feel like you're still here bleeding
You bleed until there's nothing left
It doesn't seem to ever be enough for you
But leaves you empty in the end
[Chorus]
And then you throw it all away
Throw it all away
Nothing I could say
Throw it all away
[Bridge]
It's never enough to break down inside
It's never enough to hold on to pride
It's never enough to give up your soul
It's never enough
It doesn't feel like this is over
[Chorus]
And then you throw it all away
Throw it all away
Nothing I could say
Throw it all away
Take a Breath Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You can take all the things you think I need
All I wear upon my sleeve
All the ways that you perceive
I no longer need it
[Pre-Chorus]
I know what it means in black and white
God wanted me and that's why...
[Chorus]
You leave me on the edge of sanity
There's not much left
Just take a breath
You paint me out as mediocrity
Put to the test
Just take a breath
[Verse 2]
And me, I just take things as they come
I stick around until it's done
And I'm not your chosen one
But can you admit it?
[Pre-Chorus]
I know what it means in black and white
God wanted me and that's why...
[Chorus]
You leave me on the edge of sanity
There's not much left
Just take a breath
You paint me out as mediocrity
Put to the test
Just take a breath
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
You can take all the things you think I need
All the ways that you
[Chorus]
You leave me on the edge of sanity
There's not much left
I just take a breath
You paint me out as mediocrity
Put to the test
Just take a breath
[Outro]
I know what it means in black and white
I know what it means!
The Bottom Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You suffocate, you cannot wait
For this to just be over
You wanna run and just be done
With what you can't control here
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't know what you're thinking, this ship is sinking!
[Chorus]
I'll meet you at the bottom
The waves can't wash away all the scars you bear
See you at the bottom
You just hold on to the things that keep you there
[Verse 2]
You suffer the cost, when all this is lost
It just doesn't make sense to go there
All the hate that you fear, it slowly appears
Back into your life, no controlling
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't know what you're thinking, this ship is sinking!
[Chorus]
I'll meet you at the bottom
The waves can't wash away all the scars you bear
See you at the bottom
You just hold on to the things that keep you there
[Bridge]
Fight!
Just fucking stand for something
Try!
You'll never take us all!
You'll never get it right
You'll never get it right
We'll always stand and fight
You'll never get it right
It's cold down here at the bottom
[Chorus]
I'll meet you at the bottom
The waves can't wash all the scars you bear
See you at the bottom
You just hold on to the things that keep you there
Now Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When you come to a fork in the road
You can almost taste it
Never knowing which way to go, it's not been tested
[Pre-Chorus]
All alone you try to take it, to fake it
And is the road less traveled taken, or forsaken
[Chorus 1]
Now it's up to you, the path that you choose
Gotta do something different now
It's all the same, no one to blame
Gotta do something different now
[Verse 2]
So you head down the road that you chose
Just keep pushing forward
And the window is trying to close, just to shut you out
[Pre-Chorus]
And all alone you try to take it, to fake it
And is the road less traveled taken, or forsaken
[Chorus 1]
Now it's up to you, the path that you choose
Gotta do something different now
It's all the same, no one to blame
Gotta do something different now
[Hook]
Something different
[Chorus 2]
It's up to you, the path that you choose
Gotta do something different now
It's all the same, no one to blame
Gotta do something different now
It's up to you, the path that you choose
Gotta do something different
Gotta do something different now
Paper Wings Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You're pathetic, you're fucking weak
And I'm sick of it all
Social anaesthetic to the people you meet
And I'm sick of it all
You're unapologetic
Even though you shouldn't be
And I'm sick of it all
You just don't get it, you never did
And I'm sick of it all
[Pre-Chorus]
Falling faster (Sick of it all)
To the end
[Chorus]
The weight of your sorrow
Make some paper wings and learn to fly
If there's no tomorrow
Burn your paper wings and say goodbye
[Verse 2]
You cut me so fucking deep
I'm sick of it all
You fucking drain me, I can't breathe
And I'm sick of it all
I break down on my knees
And I'm sick of it all
You're so unreal how you just don't get it
And I'm sick of it all
[Pre-Chorus]
Falling faster (Sick of it all)
To the end
[Chorus]
The weight of your sorrow
Make some paper wings and learn to fly
If there's no tomorrow
Burn your paper wings and say goodbye
[Bridge]
I can't go on like this
Not even one more day
I can't go on like this
I can't go on
I can't go on like this
Not even one more day
I can't go on like this
I can't go on
[Chorus]
The weight of your sorrow
Make some paper wings and learn to fly
If there's no tomorrow
Burn your paper wings and say goodbye
[Outro]
Burn your paper wings and say goodbye
Something to Remind You Lyrics
[Verse 1]
So this is it, I say goodbye
To this chapter of my ever-changing life
And there's mistakes, the path is long
And I'm sure I'll answer for them when I'm gone
[Pre-Chorus 1]
So when the day comes and the sun won't touch my face
Tell the ones who cared enough that I finally left this place
[Chorus]
That's been so cold, look at my face
All the stories it will tell I can't erase
The road is long, just one more song
A little something to remind you when I'm gone
When I'm gone
[Verse 2]
The road to hell, along the way
Is paved with good intentions so they say
And some believe, that no good deed
Goes unpunished in the end or so it seems
[Pre-Chorus 2]
So when the day comes and the sun won't touch my face
Tell the ones who care enough that I finally left this place
[Chorus]
That's been so cold, look at my face
All the stories it will tell I can't erase
The road is long, just one more song
A little something to remind you when I'm gone
When I'm gone
[Outro]
So this is it, I say goodbye
To this chapter of my ever-changing life
And there's mistakes, the path was long
And I'm sure I'll answer for them when I'm gone
When I'm gone
Spleen (live in Houston) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Can't breathe - Shut up - Shut up
I feel I give everything to you
Can't breathe - Shut up - Shut up
I think there's nothing left to do
Can't breathe - Shut up - Shut up
[Chorus]
I don't like today
Take it all away
Just like what you say
I don't love you
Kinda like the way
Everything is gray
Just like what you say
I don't need you
I don't look like you
Do the things you do
But I'm fucked up too
I don't need you
[Verse 2]
Can't breathe - Shut up - Shut up
I feel you are what saves my soul
Can't breathe - Shut up - Shut up
I think I'll never lose control
Can't breathe - Shut up - Shut up
[Chorus]
I don't like today
Take it all away
Just like what you say
I don't love you
Kinda like the way
Everything is gray
Just like what you say
I don't need you
I don't look like you
Do the things you do
But I'm fucked up too
I don't need you
[Bridge]
I don't understand it, you're killing this planet
The scabs on her face it's a fucking disgrace
I blame you
I blame you
I blame you
I blame you
I blame you
[Reprise]
Can't breathe - Shut up - Shut up
[Chorus]
I don't like today
Take it all away
Just like what you say
I don't love you
Kinda like the way
Everything is gray
Just like what you say
I don't need you
I don't look like you
Do the things you do
But I'm fucked up too
I don't need you
Not Again Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Do you feel like you're falling?
You've taken this step
In front of you, is further from the truth
And you fall apart in front of me again
[Pre-Chorus]
Again!
Denial isn’t the way to forgiveness
You always swore that I was wrong!
[Chorus]
Not again
No taste for the crow you feed me
Not again
It’s not a matter of if I care
Not again
What an intricate web you're weaving
Again and again
[Verse 2]
So you tried not to follow
While the clock fails to sleep
So here we are, back where it began
And toe to toe I stand in front of you again
[Pre-Chorus]
Again!
Denial isn’t the way to forgiveness
You always swore that I was wrong!
[Chorus]
Not again
No taste for the crow you feed me
Not again
It’s not a matter of if I care
Not again
What an intricate web you're weaving
Again and again
Not again
No taste for the crow you feed me
Not again
It’s not a matter of if I care
Not again
What an intricate web you're weaving
Again and again
[Outro]
Again!
Again!
