LYRICS






Remember


Picking up from where we left off
They're giving up on me
Playing stupid games that I can't win
You're so much better than me

And I always wonder why
You're so very wrong (so very wrong)
And all the words I knew to say
Have gone away (I've gone away)

Staring at the sky
Watch it go down away, good-bye
Remember all those things that I said
Hopeless words said at hopeless times or never ever said
At all
And I always wonder why
You're so very wrong (so very wrong)
And all the words I knew to say
Have gone away (I've gone away)


Dear God


Fell from grace from a road in the back of my mind
Walk the road alone with a picture set in my head

Count every time that I've fallen one too many times
I know that I've fallen everytime alone right into your arms

And why do I feel this way?
And why do I feel like this for you?
You're not here
You're not here

Shield me from harm
Just hold me in your arms
Shield me from harm
Just hold me in your arms

So pray to God and wait for an answer
So how about a little help from you?
A hundred unfinished letters with a matching song
When a little goes a little less than hope

And why do I feel this way?
And why do I feel like this for you?
You're not here
You're not here


Locket


All the things I do seem so small
To look at the sky that I know won't last
When all the stars shine just for me
When all the stars shine just for you

Please give me something for better or worse
Will the night crash upon my heart and cut me to size?
Give all you've got to give to me
Give me all your heart has for me

You can't go back to what I was before
Yesterday I was king
Yesterday was a lack for better words
Why should I even try to care too much?
Yesterday I was kind
Yesterday was a lack for better words

When everything is said to me I know
And I remember the angel that layed me down
For a day I was king and you my queen
Sleeping with the same pictures in a locket


Lullaby


And everything that I have come to know
Has taken me by surprise
And everyone that I have come to love
Has taken me by the hand

Just a simple twist of a simple fate has
Brought me to my knees
And everything you said seems
Like last summer's a dream

So when you and me pretend to be best friends
When I grow up can I please be just like you?
When life seems so much more than a game we used to play
Will you still come visit me on the weekends?

Can you please sing the blues for me?
Just one more goodnight song
Because your heart hurts a little more
And the days don't go by quick


Last Time Around


One last time around the wheel's turn and fade away
One last chance for the cards to fall perfectly in place
"Trust in me," she says

But how can we stop to think about tomorrow
When today's so far away?
Today's so far away

Love me
Always
Just for
Today

Why are you falling so fast?
You're my last hope
Don't give up on me
So stop and go
We ended 20,000 years ago today
