Taking My Life

I’m home tonight

Alone so I

Can keep you in the back of my mind

 

And maybe if I try my best

To get some rest

Forget about my god damn life

‘Cause all I know is

 

You make me feel like I’m alive

When you’re taking my life

You make me feel like I’m alive

When you’re taking my life

You make me feel like I’m alive

 

You know me well

Enough to see

That I’ve been living out of your eyes

Maybe we don’t need to fall in love to be

Or is it just a waste of your time?

‘Cause all I know is

 

You make me feel like I’m alive

When you’re taking my life

You make me feel like I’m alive

 

You make me feel like I’m alive

When you’re taking my life

You make me feel like I’m alive

When you’re taking my life

You make me feel like I’m alive

When you’re taking my life

You make me feel like I’m alive

When you’re taking my life

Just a Feeling

Nowhere 
Just another place that I could be 
Waiting for someone 
To come and get the better half of me 

And something 
Is repeating in my head 
Words and pictures 
Of someone that I just met 

But I don't wanna get that low again 
Like somebody else 
Is a god that I pray to 
For a little love and other things 
With the sacrifice 
Of my begging heart in a puddle 

It's just a fucking feeling 
It's just another feeling I understand 
That you're leaving 
It's just a stupid feeling I don't care 

Let go of you? 
Never quite felt like I had got 
A hold of you 
Never quite felt like I had gotten 
Close to you 

And now in my hands 
All I got to show is 

This stupid fucking feeling 
It's just another feeling I understand 
That you're leaving 
It's just a stupid feeling I don't care 
Smile through my bleeding heart 
Sew it up with a couple friends 
Make it through the evening 
With a thought for you again 

Let go of you? 
Never really thought that I had got 
A hold of you

Talking Tough

I thought I saw you in the spotlight 
Sharing a smoke 
I thought I caught you by the waterside 
Without your clothes on 
Won't you show me where I went wrong? 

I knew exactly what your heart felt 
So long ago 
'Cause when you said it and regretted 
Wearing all of the glow off 
Won't you both stop talking tough 

And I feel like 
You're turning away 
And I feel like 
You left something to say 
So what do you say? 

Turn me into you 
What do I do but try to be 
Somebody else? 
I've been here for years 
Stuck on the floor 
I can't lift myself up anymore 

Can I open up to you 
And say how I feel? 
If you tell me that you love me 
Will I know that it's real? 
If you tell me that you love me 
Will I know that it's real? 

I thought I saw you in the spotlight 
Sharing a smoke 
I thought I caught you by the waterside 
Without your clothes on 
Won't you show me where I went wrong? 

I knew exactly what your heart felt 
So long ago 
'Cause when you said it and regretted 
Wearing all of the glow off 
Won't you both stop talking tough

"Maybe If..."

Maybe if I tried harder
Then I could be your man
Maybe if I knew better
Then I would understand 

But it’s all for nothing 
My tears fall heavy as rain 
And I wash down the drain 
It’s always something 
That keeps on pulling away 
And you smile as you fade 

Maybe if you said you loved me 
Then I would try to stay 
Maybe it was all just tough and 
You needed to get away 

Always running 
And I can’t see that far 
As you wade in the dark 
When you look back 
Am I just a silhouette 
A figure of black 

I’m just killing time 
‘til I can be with you again 
I’m just killing time 
‘til I can be with you again 

I know that you’ve got 
A few more miles to go 
And you know that I’ve got 
A few more miles to go 
And I know that you’ve got 
A few more miles to go 
And you know that I’ve got 
A few more miles to go 

Until I’m home 
Again 
Until I’m home 
Again

I Will Implode

I will implode 
I'll take everything with me 
When I go 
I can't stand the thought 
Of losing I've got 
So I will implode 

You're a band of cannibals 
Chewing on my head 
Every word that I have written 
Comes alive when I am dead 
Is it better now 
That I have left? 
I wonder what ever could happen 
To disturb me from my rest 

I will implode 
I'll take everything with me 
When I go 
I can't stand the thought 
Of losing I've got 
So I will implode 

I wanna be with you now 
More than ever 
I wanna be with you now 
More than ever 
More than ever

Moonlight

You know my heart 
Tear me apart 

Whatever you say to me 
Save me, save me 
It's such a lie 
We were meant to be 
Maybe, maybe 
We were meant to die 

'Cause I can see your eyes 
And they lie tonight 
Does it feel like it's real? 
Does it feel like it's right? 

Sometimes good things 
Don't last past evenings 

'Cause I can see your eyes 
And they lie tonight 
Does it feel like it's real? 
Does it feel like it's right? 
Like moonlight 
Like moonlight 
Like moonlight

Messenger

Just say to me that you'll try 
Even if it's a lie 
Even if it's goodbye 

I just need a way to survive 
At least for tonight 
Promise me you wont cry 

And with the way that you're taking off 
I fall to pieces 
Rusted in your water fall 
I can't move at all 

When all that I've gained is lost 
How can I believe it 
Listen close for the final call 
Of an aching soul tonight 

You know me 
Don't write off as a messenger 
Leave this place 
'Cause there's something thick in the air 

I Know you 
Don't write off as a messenger 
Leave this place 
There's something thick in the air 

I Know you 
Don't write off as a messenger 
Leave this place 
'Cause there's something thick in the air 

I Know you 
Don't write off as a messenger 
Leave this place 
'Cause there's something thick in the air 

Just say to me that you'll try 
Even if it's a lie 
Even if it's goodbye

Call Me Darling

The first time that I saw you 
I was swimming in my head 
I can stare at you forever 
Or at least until I'm dead 

Sometimes I fall and 
I miss when you call me darling 
Sometimes I fall in 
Oh it's all for you 

When you said that you weren't leaving 
But your heart was out the door 
Were you looking for a reason to go? 
Or was it me and nothing more? 

Sometimes I fall and 
I miss when you call me darling 
Sometimes I fall and 
I miss when you call me 

Do you miss me? 
Do you love me at all? 
Do you miss me? 
Do you love me at all? 
Do you miss me? 
(Oh) 
Do you love me at all? 
(Oh) 
Do you miss me? 
(Oh) 
Do you love me at all? 

Sometimes I fall and 
I miss when you call me darling 
Sometimes I fall in a better way 
A better way for you

Nineteen

Today is the first I felt happy as ever 
And now I just feel sad 
Ain't it funny how life works out like that? 

Today is the first time I wrote something in a while 
Maybe a smile will do 
But I'm so used to staring back at you 

And maybe when I turn twenty 
I'll feel better 
But now that I'm nineteen 
I just feel so old 

And maybe if I make life like my fathers 
I'll be sad 
But happy for my kids 

(Oh) 
La Di Da Da Da 
(Oh) 
La Di Da Da 
(Oh) 
La Di Da Da Da 
(Oh) 
La Di Da Da
