her name was gloria but i only called her minea mistake which turned from hairline to fractureslowly over timerepelled for risk of relationshipshe wants to play the fieldwell play it away from me i have too much here to feeli saw a shooting star when lying in her armsnow since you left methe stars aim only at me to harmher name was gloria but i only called her minea mistake which would burn over timea mistake that was unbelievably all mine

the stone they carved so perfectlystands now that you cannotthe flowers soon will be like you tooas the songs turn me to knotshonestly things wont be the samei hate the way that things have to changethe footprints left in muddy grassshow the people who all careyou cant tell whos crying due to rainbut i know were all crying herehonestly things wont be the samei hate the way that things have to change

for the first time i sat down and i felt the world move rounda sensation conducted by a fragile soundmaybe looking back i could have been much morebut the past is what its there forto inspire me to not look back in a few yearssee how i wasted my life and break into more tearsso today im going to bethe all-mightiness of mein a haze i break through all my inhibitionsmy self-doubt is like a wall of ice that i cracked in a missionto see the world how ive never seen it beforelife is just a cancerand i think i found the curethese days it pays to move away from them allyou all look so the samebut life is now my pet and i will never let her diei wont dedicate to this gameso as the waves get higher i just sit and play in the sandthe sun doesnt stop shining when you cant see it maamive fumbled and tumbled too long to stay like thisive slapped my ego down and stopped waiting for a giftdont worry about worryingdont be unhappy because youre unhappyill dedicate more time to me and less to feeling crappyso today im going to be freetoday im going to bethe all-mightiness of mebecause life is just a cancerand i think i found the cure

I remember well the smell of tequilla1 bed 1 bath 2 months with StephDrinkin after sunrise didnt sleep til late at nighthad a ten day birth day to Thanksgiving with themwe burt the bird and hit the RoadAll blur in stereo... Sonic Booksmarks and Bad Scenes.But not a dull moment.I barely miss living in Los Angeles.It only too a week to start the WarfareEcentric neighbors on welfare.The turntables spun to the beat of poundinon the walls.wed sink another drink with Billy IdolHave sloppy sex on the living room floorWhirlwind of simple pleasureprinciple. Our principles are gone.But not a dull moment.I barely miss livin in that selfish bliss with Steph. Ill always havethe past to be warned.And Ill always havemy last life when Im boredI can taste the Gold Ring turnishin my mouth.I need a drink to wash it outNot a dull momentI barely miss living in that state of filthso Ill clean the yard the yard the yard mow the lawnwash the staining rug so what its save and sound I have found...

When I take a look inside of what inhabits my mindI finally understand why everybody wants to see me deadIm a selfish waste of spaceWhy didnt you say it to my face?Nobody likes me here I might as well just fade awayWhy does everybody hate me?Why does everybody hate me?Why does everybody hate me?Want to see me burn down in their flamesFill my head with selfless doubtsThe real reasons cant get outSo line up and take turns to slashThrow the final stone because youre all perfectWhy does everybody hate me?Why does everybody hate me?Why does everybody hate me?Want to see me burn down in their flamesWhy does everybody hate me?Why does everybody hate me?Why does everybody hate me?Why does everybody hate me?Why does everybody hate me?Why does everybody hate me?Why does everybody hate me?Why does everybody hate me?Why does everybody hate me?Why does everybody hate me?Why does everybody hate me?Want to see me burn down in their flamesWhy does everybody hate me?Why does everybody hate me?Why does everybody hate me?Want to see me burn down in their flames

Fist yourself to sleep...I hate the idea of you being with guys when Im not aroundSo dont not think of me stay strongIn bed at night lie back and think that I am still thereAs long as you stay pure you have this songSo fist yourself to sleepAs long as you think of me as long as you think of meAs long as you think of me as long as you think of meAs long as you think of me as long as you think of meAs long as you think of me as long as you think of meFist yourself to sleepFist yourself to sleepFist yourself to sleepFist yourself to sleep

Dont want to sing this song aloneand I dont care what youve been toldafraid to let all my pain gobut Ill embrace the soundWell Ive felt worse than thisHad years of forcing smilesmy only pain is watching when you gobut Ill embrace the sound for a whileGive up most of the habits that I hadand I release the sadness from the pastso hold on dearwell be fineyoure all I need here

Like cobbles in the pavement Im starting to crack upFrom all the pointless talking that I have given upAnd I am giving things time to settle before I hate thisSome things are meant for othersSome things are meant for meIm trying to distinguish if Im trapped or if Im freeBut all I see is this life this cage that Im in is changingBecause Im getting older babyCant you see Im losing? Every moment hurts meCant you see that maybe we are moving too fastWhy cant I just fall to the ground?Everything gets older babyEverything you love will dieI hope that maybe everyone will realise Im falling apartWhy cant I just fall to the ground?Like feathers in the snowstorm I try to settle downI always look like falling but never hit the groundAnd I am losing my mind just trying to find some reasoningYou losers seem so happy with everything youre notI want what I am losingI hate what I have gotAnd my emotions are worn all tattered and torn and brokenBecause Im getting older babyCant you see Im losing? Every moment hurts meCant you see that maybe we are moving too fastWhy cant I just fall to the ground?Everything gets older babyEverything you love will dieI hope that maybe everyone will realise Im falling apartWhy cant I just fall to the ground?Like feathers in the snowstorm I try to settle downFalling ever closer and hoping for the groundBut the spin of the world keeps keeping me up and fallingBecause Im getting older babyCant you see Im losing? Every moment hurts meCant you see that maybe we are moving too fastWhy cant I just fall to the ground?Everything gets older babyEverything you love will dieI hope that maybe everyone will realise Im falling apartWhy cant I just fall to the ground?Like something out of nothing I hope to be at peaceI sit and wait and listen and need for anythingI dream of touching the groundBut keep falling down...

Your toy balloon has sailed in the sky, love But now it must fall to the ground Now your sad eyes reveal just how badly you feel 'Cause there is no easy way down The view from the cliffs must have been exciting And up to the peaks you were bound Now you're stranded alone and the past is unknown And ...
