MIDNIGHT INSIDE |
MISSING PIECES - I scream but no sound escapes I try to breathe but no action takes place I think my lungs are caving in it makes me wanna give in <ch>but I will fly before I give myself away I will fly before I give myself away You think you've got it all figured out Start with the edges the puzzle will fill out but what good does it do if the box is empty like me and you but you refuse to resist <ch>but I will fly before I give myself away I will fly before I give myself away <br>don't you understand there's only pieces 'til I'm gone. FALLING - It's a beautiful day at the coffee shop on the corner of Genessee people are smiling room filled with laughter and she thinks "That could be me" Well she's finished her coffee folded her napkin and put out her last cigarette gets up from the barstool and heads for the stairs to see how far she'll get <ch>you don't have to climb today theres other ways and better days you don't have to climb today there's other ways and better days that you need to see She stares at the sky watching the clouds looks up to say goodbye the world looks so small from this 30 floor building as she turns her back to the sky to the sky to the sky to the sky now she's falling x4 LIAR - It's 5:30 am it's so late and my coffee's cold as hell I'm not falling asleep now as far as I can tell pumping coal into my head gotta keep the fire red the flames are burning blue but theyre not as strong as you <ch>I lied I need you tonight I Lied I want you here by my side Outside I hear sirens I hope that your OK I wonder where you are now regretfully I pushed you away I couldn't stand having what I wanted I couldn't stand having what I needed <ch>I lied I need you tonight I Lied I want you here by my side D.A.F.A.N. - You spit your tongue like a thrift store machine gun the chambers empty, those damn bullets bet you wish you had some one to use 'em on those tears are useless on me can't you see it's easy to see through transparency you are crystal clear to me the waters not deep it's easy to see the bottom shallow once I dived in, not deep enough to swim I think i'll find myself another hole <ch>when I hear your name the world stops and I fall down I guess we lie in the beds we have made like cards on the table I know how it feels to be played with now Your all or nothing means nothing to me can't you see they're all just empty promises you made Your own life this way so accept the change go on start a new day without me so good luck on your run I hope you find one that will put up with the things you do I won't <ch>when I hear your name the world stops and I fall down DISAPPEAR - Need to get out from under these city lights maybe escape to the countryside i'll build me up a picket fence and live there 'til my moneys spent <ch>i'll disappear (for now) Live my life to a routine it's the damndest thing i've ever seen i'm sick of this simple life mentality i think i'll pack my bags escape normality <ch>i'll disappear (for now) MORPHINE - She falls asleep to the slow drip of an IV and she dreams of bubbles in the morphine she can't leave she can't be <ch1>And it's certain that she's hurting but she wonders why we focus on the pain She could live without these belts restraining her she's not an animal and your not in any danger let her be live her life free...whats left of it <ch2>she's not cryin' 'cause she's dyin' all that she wants is for everyone to smile. PARADISE - (interlude) NOSTALGIA - 3am at the water hole who cares if it's freezin cold jump on in, jump on in Waiting for the moon to rise we'll watch it through our glassy eyes come on in, come on in we'll float forever there's nothing left to do we'll live forever <ch>we were so innocent so young and foolish who knew what the corner hid so young and foolish Keep drivin keep goin round anywhere but this damn town keep drivin, keep drivin windows down this wind feels fine this curvy road frees my mind keep goin, keep going we'll drive forever there's nothing left to do we'll ride forever <ch>we were so innocent so young and foolish who knew what the corner hid so young and foolish -K - Can you put a little faith in you you don't see what I do Can you open up your eyes and recognize what you are So one bulb burnt out are you gonna let the rest of them blow there's a light that surrounds you a special place where no shadows follow do you see? you don't see. Are you happy all alone? 'Cause thats not what you are, You can't push us all away we won't move that far do you see? you don't see...me Can you put a little faith in you you don't see what I do Can you open up your eyes and recognize what you are...to me, to me, to me. |
