  1. 1 I’m tired of you lying
    2 Sitting alone in a dark room crying
    3 The only time I’m free is when I’m alone
    4 You’ll never have the same as me even if you make a clone
    2 Sitting alone in a dark room
    5 You think I wasn’t going to find out you fool
    4 You’ll never have the same as me even if you make a clone
    6 Suicidal thoughts; make me wanna drown you in a pool
    5 You think I wasn’t going to find out you fool
    3 The only time I’m free is when I’m alone
    6 Suicidal thoughts; make me wanna drown you in a pool
    1 I’m tired of you lying

  2. She deserves better
    He takes advantage of her
    She should just leave him
    He won’t let her

    He takes advantage of her
    She needs an escape
    He won’t let her
    Maybe she wants to stay

    She needs an escape
    Maybe she doesn’t have anybody to turn to
    Maybe she wants to stay
    He has a strong hold on her

    Maybe she doesn’t have anybody to turn to
    She fights to cover the pain
    He has a strong hold on her
    If only she could be stronger

    She fights to cover the pain
    The physical and emotional trauma
    If only she could be stronger
    He doesn’t allow her to be free
    The physical and emotional trauma
    This is almost unbearable
    He doesn’t allow her to be free
    One day she will be

  3. I walk along a thin line
    The line of life and death
    We all walk it
    And we just wait to fall

    The line of life and death
    Is the path everyone takes
    And we just wait to fall
    To see where our fall takes us

    Is the path everyone takes
    To find our place in their life
    To see where our fall takes us
    We must keep inching forward

    To find our place in life
    All we do is play our parts
    We must keep inching forward
    Until the curtain closes

    All we do is play our parts
    On the stage we know as life
    Until the curtain closes
    We are alive

    On the stage we know as life
    We find our fate
    We are alive
    But only until the curtain falls

  4. Here I was sitting in class
    Looking up at the clock
    Listening to the constant clicks
    Awaiting the end of the day

    Looking up at the clock
    I was getting impatient
    Awaiting the end of the day
    It was getting soon

    I was getting impatient
    I was getting happy
    It was getting soon
    Here it comes

    I was getting happy
    The bell rang
    Here it comes
    The rush of people

    The bell rang
    It was a most pit
    The rush of people
    All leaving on a Friday

    It was a mosh pit
    But it felt good
    All leaving on a Friday
    Onto the weekend

  5. He tells her he loves her
    She can’t help but believe him
    But she knows he’s hiding something
    She knows something isn’t right

    She can’t help but believe him
    Though it feels wrong
    She knows something isn’t right
    He won’t tell her the truth

    Though it feels wrong
    And she begs him to tell her
    He won’t tell him the truth
    It’s killing them both

    And she begs him to tell her
    But his secret it too dark
    It’s killing them both
    It’s tearing them apart

  6. Outside I sit and stare at the flowers
    I skip with my new feelings upon life
    A time that I no longer want to have
    This is a time that I want to capture at the moment

    I skip with my new feelings upon life
    This will be something that I will hold on forever
    This is a time that I want to capture at the moment
    It will forever be in my heart

    This will be something that I will hold on forever
    It is a treasure that is hidden within me
    This is a time that I want to capture at the moment
    I will take a picture with this in my mind

    It is a treasure that is hidden within me
    A chest filled with secrets
    This is a time that I want to capture at the moment
    Leave me I need to do this alone

    A chest filled with secrets
    It is deep inside of me
    Leave me I need to do this alone
    I should be the only one to know about this

    It is deep inside of me
    An untold secret
    I should be the only one to know about this
    Go on please, don’t say anything

  7. Off in the distance a quake happens
    Did you hear it?
    That sharp ringing noise
    It seems to bounce off the walls

    Did you hear it?
    I know you heard that sound
    It seems to bounce off the walls
    Vibrating off your ear drums

    I know you heard that sound
    Don’t ignore it’s movement
    Vibrating off your ear drums
    Sounding throughout your limbs

    Don’t ignore its movement
    The ringing going through your heart
    Sounding throughout your limbs
    Moving out toward your finger tips

    That ringing going through your heart
    Pounding in your brain
    Moving toward your finger tips
    And then releasing only to return

    Pounding in your brain
    An earsplitting scream resounding
    And then releasing only to return
    Is that a scream of pain?

  8. I couldn’t ask for a more hectic day
    the train ride this morning was Hell
    everyone was extremely annoying and rude
    and it seemed like I was looking for trouble

    the train ride was hell
    because no one could move themselves out of my way
    It was as though I was looking for trouble
    by yelling at everyone to move

    No one could move themselves out of my way
    when I was in my office
    by yelling at everyone to move
    I ended up starting a fight

    When I was in my office
    Nothing seemed to go well at all
    I ended up starting a fight
    and sleeping at my desk

    Nothing seemed to go well at all
    I was reprimanded twice by the boss
    cause I fell asleep at my desk
    and started singing at the top of my lungs

    I was reprimanded twice by the boss
    What if I get fired?
    I was singing at the top of my lungs
    cause I just had to let it out

    What if I get fired
    Then what would I do next
    I just have to let this out
    I hate you all!

  9. She fell in love with a guy that mostly her friends don’t like
    They think she could do better but it’s her choice not others
    He’s a very sweet guy who treats her like no other
    And soon will marry him and live happily ever after

    They think she could do better but it’s her choice not others
    At least someone agreed to see her happy and not struggle
    And soon will marry him and live happily ever after
    He shows her the world and shows her he’s different

    At least some agreed to see her happy and not struggle
    They accept and show their support
    He shows her the world and shows her he’s different
    He’s one of a kind different for one type

    They accept and show their support
    She’s happy of her decision she couldn’t wish for something else
    He’s one of a kind different for one type
    He puts a smile on her face that shines so bright
    She’s happy of her decision she couldn’t wish for something else
    Is it the years that help them know how a relationship is supposed to work?
    He puts a smile on her face that shines so bright
    Her cheeks turn pearly red not even the sun can beat that

  10. Have you ever thought about your life?
    Take some time and process what you did
    It’s crazy how fast it can fly
    Don’t hesitate just take a look

    Take some time and process what you did
    It’s easier than you think
    Don’t hesitate just take a look
    Simply stop and reminisce all the good times

    It’s easier than you think
    Cherish the memories made
    Simply stop and reminisce all the good times
    Have no fear just take a glance

    Cherish the memories made
    Has life been good to you?
    Have no fear just take a glance
    I’ve got very few complaints so far

    Has life been good to you?
    Stop waiting and act on what you want
    I’ve got very few complaints so far
    Life has been good to me

    Stop waiting and act on what you want
    Hope you’re happy wherever you are
    Life has been good to me
    You don’t have to dream it all just live a day

    Sitting by the window
    Watching the rain hit the leafs
    The leafs are dripping onto the ground
    Creating puddles of mud

    Watching the rain hit the leafs
    There is a person sitting under the tree
    He looks sad and lonely
    The water hits the top of his head

    There is a person sitting under the tree
    Thinking about what has just happened
    Wishing everything will be okay
    Talking to God for his help

  12. Watching the same as always
    The scene is ever changing
    Swelling and growing with time
    However I am the same as ever

    The scene is ever changing
    From past to future before my eyes
    However I am the same as ever
    Although I am not bound by time, I am not free

    From past to future before my eyes
    I stay as still as stone unable to live life
    Although I am not bound by time, I am not free
    Eternal life comes with a steep price

    I stay as still as stone unable to live life
    Before I could die, but at least I was happy
    Eternal life comes with a steep price
    Yet I paid that price, which I know regret

    Before I could die, but at least I was happy
    The life I had with the people I loved would be gone if I choose
    Yet I paid that price, which I know regret
    I must remain trapped for being so foolish

    The life I had with the people I loved would be gone if I choose
    Why did I ever give up such happiness for this misery?
    I must remain trapped for being so foolish
    Hope is the only thing that can keep my lonely world from falling apart
