Is this how it's gonna' end?
I used to see you as a friend.
I remember the tears were in my eyes,
When I first had to say "Goodbye."
But I don't know you anymore,
And things aren't like they were before.
You're just a shell of who you were,
But you don't seem to be concerned.
Remember what we said,
When we first met?
How we would have each others' backs.
I put my faith in what was wrong,
And now I've got to face this all alone.
Every night you call to me,
But I'm not longer listening.
I really wanted to forgive,
But that's a feeling I've parted with.
So don't call me anymore.
I'm not the man I was before.
I'm so fed up with wasting time,
With those who hide inside their lies.
Remember what we said,
When we first met?
How we would have each others' backs.
I put my faith in what was wrong,
And now I've got to face this all alone.
Remember how we never asked for more,
And it was always us, against the world?
I never thought that I would be so wronged.
You spit right in my face,
And left me alone.

That's What She Said

Take me to, those summer nights.
In your eyes, the stars shine so bright.
Come on over, I can't wait to see you.
It's been a week since I have last seen you.
I've cleaned my room, combed my hair, put on cologne.
I'm anxious to spend some time with you alone.
You call me up to tell me that you are here.
I can't help but feel nervous when you are near.
Your pretty face, blonde hair, and hazel eyes.
My feeling are something I can't disguise.
Something tells me that we're gonna' make this.
All dressed up, we're out to see the late flick.
I am a medal, and you have the honor, that's what she said.
Late at night we're cruising down the highway.
Buy some drinks, we'll chill until it's sunrise.
Come on, dear, let's move a little faster, that's what she said.
Come on over, I can't wait to see you.
I promise that my feelings are true.
And through your hard times I always will be there,
To keep you strong, if ever you feel scared.

When You're Around
03:41
|

|
I've been thinking about you lately,
I can't seem you to get you out of my head,
And I'm alright with that.
When you're around,
It's funny how much things change,
And how my breath gets taken away.
It's like my feet never touch the ground.
But when you look at me,
I can see the whole world in your eyes.
And when you're smiling up at me,
There's nothing else on my mind.
I've been thinking about you lately,
That perfect smile running through my mind, all the time.
When you're around, it's like there's nothing I can't do.
There's nothing else, just me and you,
And nothing can slow us down.
But when you look at me,
I can see the whole world in your eyes.
And when you're smiling up at me,
There's nothing else on my mind,
And it's like, nothing else really matters,
And everything's gonna' change.
So please, put your hand in mine,
And stay with me for another day.

Memory
03:06
|

No time for hiding now,
I've barely made a sound.
Afraid of what to say.
Betrayed by your mistakes,
But I'm tired of holding on.
I guess I'm just not strong,
Enough to see this through.
I'm letting go of you.
I guess it's come to this,
I wonder if I'll miss,
The things we used to do.
There's so much we've been through,
But I'm tired of holding on.
I've never felt this strong.
I know just what to do.
I'm letting go of you.
You won't be a part of my memories.
You won't be a part of my memories.
I hope that I can learn.
I hope that I can grow,
And move past these fading smiles,
Though it might take a while.
And I hope you can move on,
And you find that you are strong,
Enough to grow up too.
I'm letting go of you.

The crowd is moving; the music's so loud.
I hear your voice, I turn around.
I see you for the first time,
I'm trapped in the colors of your eyes.
I have to know. I need to know...
What's your name?
I'm nervous, but my eyes stay fixed on you.
I'm falling apart, as my knees grow weak,
I'll brace myself with you in my arms.
A star-lit night. A scene lit with colors from the sky.
I hear your voice, I hear my name.
You speak to me, my heart beats inconsistently.
You have to know. You've got to know...
Tell me please,
Do you feel the same way when you look at me?
I'm falling apart, but I can brace myself
With those words you speak from the heart.
If only you could see, how much you mean to me.
I only want to make you smile.
Tell me please, I'm nervous, but my eyes stay fixed on you.
I'm falling apart, as the lights fade out
Your eyes reflect the light from the stars.
Molly, please, my heart skips a beat,
I'm hanging on every word.
I'm falling apart, as you whisper my name,
I'll brace myself with you in my arms.
Lets make this a new start.
I have you in my heart.
Molly, please.

Those Things You Do
02:23
|

|
How do you do those things you do to me?
Oh, Baby, how do you do those things you do to me?
I can't stand to be apart.
You had me right from the start.
Oh, Baby, how do you do those things you do to me?
Hearing your voice in my head constantly.
Waiting for you to call me desperately,
And now I'm losing my mind.
This happens all the time.
Oh, Baby, how do you do those things you do to me?
I would go anywhere if I could have you with me.
Always know that I will help you find your way back home.
You know I'll always be there.
How do you do those things you do to me?
I don't know.
I've tried to discern this, but I just can't
Place my finger on these new colors
It's like everything's brighter since you laid by my side
Since I knew that you'd be there.
I won't let go.
I won't let you go.
How do you do those things you do?

By My Side
03:23

|
So you think that I don't notice when you tell me lies?
You say you're sorry, but I can see right through your clever little guise.
Save your story, 'cause I'm not buying it.
Save your speeches, 'cause I don't give a shit.
I'm done, and now I think it's time for you to go.
Please tell me what I can do to get you back on my side.
I can't see how I can get you to believe in me.
Looked me in the eye, told me the story of how you lost your pride.
You said you wanted to die, and I believed you for every second.
Still now, you're pulling at my strings,
But I see the game you're playing, and you won't gain control of me.
Please tell me what I can do to get you back on my side.
I can't see how I can get you to believe in me.
So here me out right now, 'cause I'm not the one to walk away.
Stop playing these games, lying, cheating us every single day.
No more pulling at my strings.
It's time you take responsibility for mistakes you make.
Please tell me what I can do to get you back on my side.
I can't see how I can get you to believe in me.
Please tell me what I can do to get you back on my side.
I can't see how I can get you to believe in me.

Killing a Thought
04:17
|
|||
|
It's funny now looking back,
At just how hard I tried and lied to you to cover my tracks.
To keep avoiding everything I always wanted to say,
I kept on pushing, always pushing you further away.
And now you're gone, and I just can't get you off of my mind,
And all I hope is that things will get better with time,
Because I know that all I did and all I said,
What just a cover to keep me from losing a friend.
What a stupid frame of mind.
And I remember every moment that night,
Just like a movie, everything slowed down in time.
The way you moved, the way your smile lit up the room,
And the way your eyes seemed to pierce right on through me.
And the way your hand fit tightly in mine,
And how easily you downed that bottle of wine,
And when I walked you back, and we said our goodbyes,
I turned away without a word and swallowed my pride.
And now I'm,
Thinking of all the things I said, and all the things I did.
My worst kept lie...I'm trying to get by.
When I look into your eyes, I wanna' make it right,
But we're all out of time; just trying to get by.
Did what I had to do, but I still think of you,
And all we could have been. I'm trying to get by.
A cowardly mistake. The choice was mine to make.
My worst kept lie...just trying to get by.
And it's hard now thinking back,
To our last week because composure is what I lacked.
And every night it's like I just kept hearing your name.
It pierced right through me like a knife, so I numbed the pain,
And I left it up to alcohol to be my crutch,
And I gave into my anger; it was all too much.
Looking back, it's like a dream, like a reverie,
And you'll never know how much that you meant to me.
What a stupid little lie.

Tonight
02:18

Well, it's not looking good today.
The words have all been said,
And it's hard to lift my head.
And it seems, the sun won't shine today.
All I can see is rain, but it can't hide the pain.
Well, forget my strength today.
You've left and gone away,
And it's hard to face the day.
And it seems, the clouds are here to stay,
The ever constant rain, it drowns my world again.
I just can't figure this shit out,
But in you I have no doubts.
Your wings will be your guide tonight.
Well, I'm at a loss today.
Without you I feel blind,
Like I just might lose my mind.
And I hope, that I can make it through,
As I hold tightly on to my memories of you.
I just can't figure this shit out,
But in you I have no doubts.
Your wings will be your guide tonight,
And I'll smile for you, even though you're gone,
But bright lights will bring you home.
This is my last goodbye tonight.

All We Need is Time
03:22

Such little things make such a mess.
I'm scared that I've lost sight of myself once again.
I’ve been through this before, wasted time with no meaning.
It’s sickening how familiar this all seems to me.
Sometimes all I can do is lie awake at night,
And wonder what the hell tomorrow will bring.
So let’s take these ugly situations,
And turn them into something beautiful.
Your eyes deceive your mystery, and,
I know that you’re a little curious.
And I don’t know what to do,
As I’m lying here with the lights off.
And as my thoughts slip back to you,
I just want to fall asleep.
But I open my eyes, think about it,
Realize, you're not the one I'm looking for,
But God, when you smile.
So let’s take these ugly situations,
And turn them into something beautiful.
Your eyes deceive your mystery, and,
I know that you’re a little curious.
And we’ll let a little time go by.
Sit back, relax, just close your eyes.
‘Cause everything will be alright.
I promise all we need is time.
All we need is time...

Here we are, just another day.
I stop just to catch my breath.
It's been far too long since I've felt this strong,
Now I can't believe it.
As each moment comes to pass,
And now fades into the past,
It took time to know how far we could go.
It's hard to believe it.
Just let it go.
It takes time to know.
No reason to look back.
No reason to worry.
Just look at how far we've come.
We're not in a hurry.
No cares for tomorrow,
'Cause right now is just fine.
Someday this will all make sense,
Until then, we're just wasting time.
You and I will take our time.
Together, I know, that we'll be just fine.
Let's toast to another night,
An evening for you and I.
Our worries aside, like bills space and time,
'Cause we're in the moment.
Right now's just for us to share.
Let's breathe in the summer air.
The memories we'll make, and trips that we'll take,
And time spent together.
Just let it go.
It takes time to know.
No reason to look back.
No reason to worry.
Just look at how far we've come.
We're not in a hurry.
No cares for tomorrow,
'Cause right now is just fine.
Someday this will all make sense,
Until then, we're just wasting time.

Never Say Goodbye
02:35

Hello Beautiful, tell me what's on your mind.
Summer's over and I just don't have the time,
To make, anything much of this.
So let's take a chance while we still have a couple seconds.
Do you remember how it was when we first met?
I said hello to you, and you just smiled back.
It seems like yesterday, the years went by so fast.
Our time is growing short; let's make these moments last.
Always look up, never look down.
Just hang around, as our days are counting down.
With time fading out, I'll try once more to sing for you.
Let go of doubt, just let my words try and take you away.
We'll go as far as we can run.
Always look up, never look down.
Just hang around as our days are counting down.
The years have gone by, it's all lead to this night.
And as we lock eyes, our lips touch to finally say goodbye.

Shallow Apologies
02:17
|

|
I've grown tired of calling you out.
You don't listen; it's useless.
I guess that you'll only do what you want,
Despite playing the victim.
It's hard to be made out to be such a fool.
I'm not fucking stupid.
You lie to my face, then you lay on the guilt,
And expect me to listen.
And I'm sorry, but I won't come home.
And I'm sorry, but I don't feel bad.
And I'm sorry, but this is not where I belong.
And I'm sorry, but I'm not coming home.
And I'm sorry, but I don't feel bad.
And I'm sorry, but this is not where I belong.

So Easy
04:01
|

So let's go.
I want you to know, this isn't over.
Not even close to it.
'Cause I won't let you go.
I'm not giving up.
You'll have to try a little harder.
Don't you see?
You gave it all away.
It's not the time or place,
But I'm just gonna' speak my mind about you,
And everything you do.
Do you even have a clue,
Or am I just wasting time?
So this is how it's gonna' be?
I never thought I'd see you leave me.
"Goodbye," just like I don't exist.
You made it look so simple.
So easy...
And I'm fine without you.
There's no scars; just a bruise.
So this is how it's gonna' be?
I never thought I'd see you leave me.
"Goodbye," just like I don't exist.
You made it look so simple.
So easy...
But today, you don't look the same.
Don't even know your face.
I guess that means that time took its toll on you,
And I'm with someone new.
This is a game for two, you bitch,
'Cause I can make it look so easy too.

Seasons

Winter is fading, but Spring's on its way.
Say hello to blue skies, and goodbye to gray.
The trees are all budding, snow's melted away,
No cares for tomorrow 'cause it's that kind of today.
And the sun in the sky, it scares away the long nights
The flowers take bloom adding some color to life.
In the silence of dawn, the birds sing softly for two,
And nothing much matters cause it's just me and you.
Will you please tell me all the things that you know,
So I can take them now and never let them go?
School's out for the Summer, what a beautiful day.
Let's go out to the movies, get ice cream on the way.
We'll head down to the shore, Baby, just you and me.
And watch as waves erase the trails we're leaving.
Now a kiss on the lips, and fireworks in the sky,
With our headlights to guide us, we'll laugh all through the night.
And we're singing our favorite songs all out of key,
And nothing much matters cause it's just you and me.
Will you please tell me all the things that you hold
Dear to you so I can learn how your mind unfolds?
A cold wind is blowing, as Autumn arrives.
All the leaves turns to gold, days fade more quickly to night.
In our blue jeans we'll sit, watching football all day,
And we'll cheer cause the Phils just won the series today.
Now the candy is set, the pumpkin's carved for the night,
Hold hands and give thanks, indulge in your appetite.
And we'll lie on our backs, the stars shine brightly for two,
And nothing much matters cause it's just me and you.
Will you please tell me all the secrets you hide,
So I can hope to understand how you feel inside?
Church bells are all ringing, Winter's finally here.
All the houses they shine with the holiday cheer.
Cold air nips at your nose as the snow starts to fall.
By the warmth of the fire, we'll take in it all.
We'll hang out till midnight, our friends are all here.
We count down from ten, to welcome in the new year.
As we set our new goals, we're ready to start anew.
And nothing much matters, 'cause it's just me and you.
If you'd say that you love me, baby I'll give it all for you.
Won't you stay for a while? Please don't go, cause I need you.
Won't you say that you love me? Baby I've given my all for you.
Stay with me for a while. Seasons change, but I'll stay true.
Me and you.
