Turn the light on. I want to see you the way I used to. Before the moment's gone. . I used to know you but now we're strangers. Lost in all this anger.
I'm not running from my shadow, anymore. I surrender bow and arrows, close the door and. Sit right down,I wanna tell you about it all. About the hotel where.
I said, I wish you never knew how I feel for you. It's hard to be just friends now after all. I said, I wanted more. He said, "How can you be so sure".
Take my bottle away and my heart is in your hands. Take my pills away or you'll never understand. Been so close to the edge, I know that I can't walk away.
(cover of "Dying in Africa" by Nicholas Makelberge). Someone I loved turned me down. I didn't feel my head touch the ground.. Someone I loved said goodbye.
All this time I believed your lie. Raised your flag deep within your sight. I raise my flag to all you hide and drive. Your spike within me within you, within me.
I've been the puppet master and I've been the strings. I've been the up and coming next, big thing. I've been the photograph and I've been the lens. I've been the saint and baby, I've been the sin.
There's a certain time of day. When I go for a walk in the sunlight. All the cracks and the crevices. Are holding in the darkness so tight. . Heavy heart.
It's been a long time since you were here. And I cannot erase what seems so clear. And I cannot hide from you no more. I've closed another door. . And I'm not gonna hide from you this time.
1, 2, 3, 4!. . I'm a hand in Mona Lisa's dress. I'm a smile on every criminal you'll ever acquit. I'm the things you've done you'd never admit. 'Cause one hand is on the bible and the other's in shit.
Found magician it's late outside. To fake my own dreams. I'm lying in the back of a smashed up car. With a drum and a guitar beside me. . The car radio is on, what is this song.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. . Been floatin' around up here on cloud eleven. I did my best to make it to twenty-seven. Open up my eyes and I can see the glory.
Now has come the day that I take the lead and I make you follow. Toast of champagne 'cause I came for greed and not for tomorrow. If it feels good then it feels good and I do it all day.
Talk about the way you run your race. Talk about the way you spit in my face. Talk about the reasons why. And the reasons you can't take that junt from my face.
Life is like a melody. Sang deep within my soul. Sang deep within to me. And all these chains that shackle me. They won't let me take control. They wanna take control of me.
Someday soon, I'm gonna pull myself together. Win or lose, I'm starting over again. . Start this day like any other day. I fold my hands as I begin to pray.
You know I put it in drive. 'Cause it makes me feel alive. The situation's awry. And goin' faster. . And now I'm hunting you down. And getting fear from the sound.
You've been hiding in the dark of your heart for way too long. You've been waiting for a light, for a sign to come along. You've been running after stars but don't forget who you are.
Come on and hit me with the real thing. You knock me up and then back down again. Come on and hit me with the real think. You knock me up and then back out again.
Theres a war going on though no one speaks of it.. Clouded by the issues that no one will admit.. From the oldest to the youngest and the ones you cannot see..
