the say that dreams of young love are the same because if love doesn’t last it was all in vain i know this for a fact because It’s how you act i know you don’t believe it too because you never come back you and I will never change i never thought that we would be estranged i might love you forever inside my brain we share no pleasure we share no pain i know we used to love each other so when is it suppose to conquer all our love the love my love my love i try again and again I can’t stop now even if I wanted to I don’t know how i call it the song that’s always on repeat no matter how hard I try I live the same defeat it’s always you and me against the world it’s you and me against the world it’s always you and me against the world it’s you and me against the world you and me you and me you and me you and me you and me you and me you and me you and me you and me against the world against the world against the world

rollin down the highway i put my foot to the floor i leaned into the wheel the radio played my score (she said) you drive real smooth and I like the way it rides she makes me feel real good and I make her feel alive (she said) you look like a movie from the silver screen i like the way you look when you drivin’ real mean yeah, you look a movie look here you look like a movie up on the big screen you got that look in your eye if you know what I mean i like the way you drive i like the way you walk i like the way you move i like the way you talk you look like a movie yeah man, let’s get the hell out of here

Safe Word 04:12
The time when we first met we both felt a spark a dangerous connection that grew in the dark but we had already ended before we had begun you unchained the bond that i thought would never be undone we both filled a void of our deepest dreams We woke up chained in a bond of our pleasure screams This unspoken marriage was never to be exposed our pact was always sacred to never no one be told The time when we first met we both felt a spark a dangerous connection that grew in the dark but we had already ended before we had begun you unchained the bond that cannot be undone you get into position everything open to me i took care of you it’s the only way it could be you only need to beg when I needed it from you your devotion to my emotion was something that you needed too now that you are gone my cold bed always reminds me of a love that was like a drug this kind of passion can never be shared can never be repaired you can never go away but I won’t let you stay

We were sent in as advisors but when we arrived we arrived teenagers we were given the mission to go out and kill and piled the bodies high hill after bloody hill we arrived in waves of mass fortunate sons because we had the planes and we had the guns our battles were fought out on the evening news and no matter how much we gained we were always doomed to lose the fall of Saigon is what had become the fall of saigon the fall of saigon our enemies fought us like ghosts in the myst so we kept our fingers on the trigger and hope we wouldn’t miss Our bombs fell from the sky like the rains of the monsoon which kept up the demand for young fresh platoons those of us who made it home will never be the same the antiwar protesters said it was us who were to blame Ho Chi Minh said he would fight to the last man so we had to fight a war that we still don’t understand The fall of saigon is what had become the fall of saigon the fall of saigon the fall of saigon the fall of saigon the fall of saigon the fall of saigon the fall of saigon the fall of saigon the fall of saigon

when I first tasted the road i felt alive for the very first time but I missed what I had lost and all that I left behind i dreamed of a better place a place that I felt I could fit in so I always had to go back to the place where I first began it took me a long time to learn that you can’t never begin again every new place I called my home the nomad of my own skin I always began to hate the place that I found myself in no where became my fate the open road was my play pin every where became unfamiliar i was a stranger to even my self Somewhere else is always Greener was the reason why I first left now I know I can never go back i will see you on the other side to keep my life from catching up where I have no place left to hide
7.
they say that you should never look back but you always remember i can never not ever relax and you are not to blame there is not one there is no name there is no one who can explain let go don’t go insane it always will be the same it’s all made up it’s just a cloud that’s so loud you can’t hear a sound it’s just a haze that’s a phase of the hear and now the past is a dream it’s all made up it’s all made up given to you out of blue on a TV show you never knew that you could never let it go The past is a dream it’s all made up it’s all made up it wants you to think when you’re fast asleep it want’s you to dream when you’re walking down the street it’s making you hold on to all those memories and feeling something that you’ve already seen and it will always want to keep a hold on you so there’s only one thing that’s left for you to do and that’s to let it go it’s all made up it’s all made up it’s just a cloud that’s so loud you can’t hear a sound it’s just a haze that’s a phase of the hear and now the past is a dream it’s all made up it’s all made up when you make a mistake you cannot escape and you hear all the fear in steps you take you just let it go just let me show you your past will control you and make you feel shame when you’re not to blame if you don’t let time heal you’ll ride a ferris wheel you and the pain will spin around, around, around, around, and around and around again it’s all made up it’s all made up it’s just a cloud that’s so loud / you can’t hear a sound it’s just a haze / that’s a phase of the hear and now the past is a dream it’s all made up it’s all made up given to you out of blue / on a TV show you never knew that you could / never let it go the past is a dream the past is a dream the past is a dream the past is a dream the past is a dream

i had a dream today that no one on earth could speak then it all faded away i was standing on a busy street talking heads everywhere i wish no one could make a sound people lined up to make a statement a worthless bunch of verbs and nouns the words so often fail us many things left best unsaid never tell what we want to say always regret words after we’re dead there’s too much drama and everybody what’s to know with all the stuff coming out the mouth it’s all just reality show it’s so much garbage i wish the cat would catch their tongue i prey for more silence the sticks and stones are more funs it’s an over load of information like rocks rolling down a hill when people speak they say nothing all the more time that they can kill the people line up to make a statement for something that they want you to know they say too much when they should shut up mouths moving fast and brains moving slow i wish I could unplug my ears with every breath that they take i want to take the word’s out of their mouths unplugging my ears was a mistake you need to close your mouth you need to open you eyes you need to stop the madness you need to stop the lies no one needs to know about all the good that you’ve done today when all the evil stays quiet there’s nothing else left to say

Columbine 04:07
do you remember me it was ninety nine i was a lost youth and all the friends of mine in a flood of pain the victims will remain there is no one here but the comfort of my fear i want to stay alive and graduate i want to survive this deadly hate when it leaves a hill top shrine we grieve the memories of columbine in a world that’s changed no one will be the same now I’m forever young after the church bells rung stuck in a place and time at columbine
10.
clouds gathering over head and I can not escape them pain like this never bleeds just dry my eye every now and then i face these fears with myself i push away with all I can but they beckon me to return be safe until a better plan intoxicating state of mind familiar sting to restore darkness descending over me the lack of air drops me to the floor it took only just one a small mistake but it grew into a thing you can’t escape inside your mind not giving you a break anxiety is written on your face you want to just leave get out of this place no need to go on having this give chase you want to get out you need to get out! you try to out wait the rain falling down on top of you you understand all of the lies but not exactly what to do you can’t change all the way the self you see in your eyes but trying to change out side of you is harder then the first lie you will learn to socialize all your close enemy friends and when they all go away alone in the storm in the end I’m more myself when I’m alone my loneliness is incomplete I can’t go on living inside myself with all the people that I meet so just try to remember when the rain clouds start to form that this is not the end it’s just another shit storm

reaching out for things that you want needing things when you get to that age growing in certain ways gain knowledge hard to see pays no attention to the materialistic animal sadistic to devour your instinct to love someone natural passion plays a big role in your life you have choice until you get out of your prime age you settle down with the best of your gaze the heart always wants what it wants despite what you think is the right or wrong way don’t follow it’s hungry chase for passion and excitement-less joy for your sake of the emotional stressful feelings dabbing inside up the ceiling claiming life with all its terror beasts inside us tearing down it’s nature to hunt us clearly tasteful fruit nectar filling out need to understand it’s wishes no way to knowledge our fire for the women and men desire always what we cannot have we need or believe we should be
12.
when you went away i kept all your things in the place you laid i cannot believe you’re so far out of touch I hold on way too tight using you for my crutch i carry with me all those memories i can see your face i can hear your voice even with no trace you gave me no choice i took all your space when I close my eyes your still here with me as if no surprise I’m so incomplete I can see your face As clear as my own staring back at me but I’m still all alone i make love with myself just to feel you again i’m still holding on but I just can’t win i keep shouting your name echoing off the walls to come back to me you went to a place that I cannot reach and I cannot touch so I do not seek it’s a distance too great i try to hold back but I know it’s too late now that you are gone you won’t come back but there’s no right or wrong I can’t keep playing this game that I play with my self put away yesterday until there no pain left
