"Be Somebody"
Im just the boy inside the man, not exactly who you think I am
Trying to trace my steps back here again so many times
Im just a speck inside your hand, you came and made me who I am
I remember where it all began so clearly
I feel a million miles away, still you connect me in your way
And you create in me something I wouldve never seen
When I could only see the floor, you made my window a door
So when they say they dont believe, I hope that they see you in me
After all the lights go down, Im just the words you are the sound
A strange type of chemistry, how youve become a part of me
And when I sit alone at night, your thoughts burn through me like a fire
Youre the only one who knows who I really am.
We all wanna be somebody, we just need a taste of who we are.
We all wanna be somebody, were willing to go but not that far.
And were all see through, just like glass
And we can shatter just as fast
That lights been burned out for a while,
I still see it every time I pass
It was lost in the corners of my mind,
Behind a box of reasons why
I never doubted it was there,
It just took a little time to find and even when...
I feel a million miles away, still you connect me in your way
And you create in me something I wouldve never seen
When I could only see the floor, you made my window a door
So when they say they dont believe I hope that they see you in me
After all the lights go down, Im just the words you are the sound
A strange type of chemistry, how youve become a part of me
And when I sit alone at night, your thoughts burn through me like a fire
Youre the only one who knows who I really am
We all wanna be somebody, we just need a taste of who we are
We all wanna be somebody, were willing to go but not that far
We all wanna be somebody, we just need a taste of who we are
We all wanna be somebody, were willing to go but not that far
Im just the boy inside the man, not exactly who you think I am
Trying to trace my steps back here again so many times
When I could only see the floor, you made my window a door
So when they say they dont believe, I hope that they see you in me -
"Water And Bridges"
There's things I know I should have mentioned sooner
But I didn't know how
I'm sorry I lost you
I never thought that this could come between us
I know its water and bridges now
But what's the sense in carrying around
This weight, these words are tearing me apart
And that's enough for the back to break
That's enough for a mouth to take
But I've been paying for it since I drove my girl away
And that's the sign of a solemn man
I'll make the best of the best I can
And I'll be better for it if I ever get my chance
That face, I know exactly what you're thinking
But I'm certain this time is different
And that's why I can't pretend that everything is mended
I know I've tried to for too long now
But what's the sense in carrying around
This weight, these words are tearing me apart
And that's enough for the back to break
That's enough for a mouth to take
But I've been paying for it since I drove my girl away
And that's the sign of a solemn man
I'll make the best of the best I can
And I'll be better for it if I ever get my chance
Oh save me from a grey life
Oh save me from a grey life
I paid the price with my soul
Oh save me
And that's enough for the back to break
That's enough for a mouth to take
But I've been paying for it since I drove my girl away
And that's the sign of a solemn man
I'll make the best of the best I can
And I'll be better for it if I ever get my chance
If I ever get my chance
If I ever get my chance
If I ever get my chance -
"So Far Gone"
I know they say that the space between
Can make it stronger than weve ever seen
They might be right but I disagree
Cause Ive never felt stronger than when youre with me
Sometimes I wonder why you even care
Cause even when I leave youre always there with me
And like a candle makes a brighter place
This mark youve made on me cant be erased.
I wanna be so far gone in you
So far nothing else will ever do
I wanna be so far gone in you
In you..
Ive stood alone and Ive fallen down
Your hands were there to pick me off the ground
Sometimes I cry cause I cant believe
Your love is big enough to cover me
Sometimes Ive wondered if youre even there
But when I feel far away you meet me there
And like a candle makes a brighter place
This mark youve made on me cant be erased
Yeah..
I wanna be so far gone in you
So far nothing else will ever do
I wanna be so far gone in you
In you..
I wanna be so far gone in you
So far nothing else will ever do
I wanna be so far gone in you
In you..I wanna be lost
I wanna be lost in you
Like a ship in the night
I wanna get lost in you
Underneath your sky
I wanna be lost in you
Like a ship in the night
So far gone tonight
I wanna be so far gone in you
So far nothing else will ever do
I wanna be so far gone in you
In you
So far gone in you
In you
In you
So far gone in you -
In this deep valley without you I'm lost
Lost in this beautiful chaos
That has been brought upon this existence
Peace is sought but never found
Let us begin this journey,
This journey to the end of time,
So we can see a better lofe -
speaking of...
I am in misery
And there ain't nobody who can comfort me (Oh yeah)
Why won't you answer me?
The silence is slowly killing me (Oh yeah) -
"Cobwebs"
What do you say, you're having doubts?
Your candle's burned and long been out
What do you say?
What do you mean, you can't go on?
You've had your love and now it's gone
What do you say?
You say, I'm so tired of the red tape
That holds me to a heartache
And I'm so tired of the same fight
That keeps me at the crash site
Oh, could it be you?
Been left behind
I would try to find you
I'd try my best to rush
I've cleared all the cobwebs
There's nothing here but dust
What do you say, you've had enough?
A thief has come to take your love away
What do you mean you can't hold on?
It's been this way for far too long
You say I'm too tired to surrender and too weak
I'm too old to remember how it could be
Oh, could it be you?
Been left behind
I would try to find you
I'd try my best to rush
I've cleared all the cobwebs
There's nothing here but dust
Still I try
Still I try to reach you
Should the dark fall upon you
Don't let it get you down
No, I'll be looking for you
Don't let it get you down
I would try to find you
I'd try my best to rush
I've cleared all the cobwebs
There's nothing here but dust
Still I try
Still I try to reach you... -
We'll clear this all away
One day we'll make it better
Even if it's not today
All we gotta do is hold on
Just never let go of it
And all the pieces will fall in place
Rather than, just lying on the floor
Just hold on,
and we'll make it though
don't let this day,
get you down like it did before
And one day I'll be searching
And same one you will too
And that day we'll collide,
Into a spray of color,
like no one's seen before
And then, it can all be right
it can all be happy
replacing this despair today
All we gotta do, yeah all we gotta do, is hold on -
Ayyy this needs a bump

"This Is A Call"
She fooled all of her friends into thinking she's so strong,
but she still sleeps with her light on,
and she acts like
It's all right on, as she smiles again and her mother lies there sick with cancer,
and her friends don't understand her,
she's a question without answers,
who feels like falling apart.
She knows, she's so much more than worthless,
but she needs to find her purpose,
she wonders what she did to deserve this and..
[Chorus:]
She's calling out to you, this is a call; this is a call out,
'Cause everytime I fall down, I reach out to you,
and I'm losing all control now, and my hazard signs are all out,
I'm asking you, to show me what this life is all about.
He tells everyone a story,
because he thinks his life is boring,
and he fights
so you won't ignore him,
because that's his biggest fear,
and he cries,
but you'll rarely see him do it.
He loves, but he's scared to use it.
So he hides behind the music, 'cause he likes it that way.
He knows,
He's so much more than worthless,
he needs to find the surface,
because he's starting to get nervous.
[Chorus]
He's calling out to you, this is a call; this is a call out,
'Cause everytime I fall down, I reach out to you,
and I'm losing all control now, and my hazard signs are all out,
I'm asking you, to show me what this life is all about.
Have you ever felt this way before?
'cause I don't wanna hide here anymore.
Take me to place where nothing's wrong and thanks for coming, shut the door.
They say someone out there sees us,
Well if you're real then save me Jesus,
'cause I've been this way for far too long.
I wasn't meant to feel alone.
[Chorus]
Now I'm calling out to you, this is a call; this is a call out,
'Cause everytime I fall down, I reach out to you,
and I'm losing all control now, and my hazard signs are all out,
I'm asking you, to show me what this life is all about.
Show me what this life is all about
Show me what this life is all about -
Why don't we search our minds
I those old, dark corners
For what we w=think is missing?
And for what, what was gone
before you were here?
We search and search and search
in the darkness we look
for the light so perfect so wanted
the light everyone wants is within us
the light, we just have to find
You and I, you and I
We have the light...
You and I, we'll be perfect one day
Just wait, you'll see
Just what you and I can be,
Please just don't leave me,
If we look we'll find it
Fly above the others, you and I
They'll all be jealous of,
You and I, you and I
We were perfect once,
We can be the same
This war isn't eternal
Sadness, anger and rage end one day
But love lasts forevermore
Won't be broken forever
I promise we'll see the light
Hold it between our hands
Something, then, that no one can take
And one day it'll be better,
And one day we'll be safe
And one day...
You and I, we'll be perfect
Just wait, you'll see
Just what you and I can be,
Please just don't leave me,
If we look we'll find it
Today our fire is lit
Fly above the others, you and I
They'll all be jealous of,
You and I, you and I
Forevermore, you, and I -
Did you all write these freaking awesome songs?

"Iris"
And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't wanna go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
When sooner or later it's over
I just don't wanna miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am -
The ones that aren't by someone else but the ones I have written I wouldn't call awesome...

Thriving Ivory NoviceIn the light of the sun, is there anyone? Oh, it has begun...
Oh dear, you look so lost, your eyes are red and tears are shed,
This world you must've crossed...
You said...
You don't know me, and you don't even care, oh yeah,
And you said
You don't know me, and you don't wear my chains... oh yeah,
Essential yet appealed, you carry all your thoughts across an open field,
When flowers gaze at you... they're not the only ones who cry when they see you
You said...
You don't know me, and you don't even care, oh yeah,
Well you said
You don't know me, and you don't wear my chains... oh yeah,
She said I think I'll go to Boston...
I think I'll start a new life,
I think I'll start it over, where no one knows my name,
I'll get out of California,
I'm tired of the weather,
I think I'll get a lover and fly him out to Spain...
Oh yeah and I think I'll go to Boston,
I think that I was tired
I think I need a new town to leave this all behind...
I think I need a sunrise,
I'm tired of the sunset,
I hear it's nice in the summer, some snow would be nice... oh yeah,
You don't know me, and you don't even care, oh yeah...
Boston... where no one knows my name...
Where no one knows my name...
Where no one knows my name... yeah
Boston...
No one knows my name. -
"Antigravity"
The more I fight, the more I work
The more I dig into the dirt
To be fed up, to be let down
To somehow turn it all around
But then fate knocks me to my knees
And sets new heights beyond my reach
Below the earth, below concrete
The whole world shackled to my feet
Then it falls away into the great escape
Over walls and weights
This anti-gravity taking over me
And far below, the carnivores,
are looking up to where I soar
Above the clouds, above the storm
Above the earth I am transformed
The energy has set me free
And pulled me through the galaxy
I've risen up beyond the sky
I am awake, I am alive
As it falls away into the great escape
Over walls and weights
This anti-gravity
Let it fly through the universe
Into the outer space
Over walls and weights
This anti-gravity taking over me
I won't come down
If you wanna break free
You know where to find me
If you wanna break free
You know where You know where..
If you wanna break free
You know where to find me
If you wanna break free
You know where..
As it falls away into the great escape
Over walls and weights
This anti-gravity
Let it fly through the universe
Into the outer space
Over walls and weights
This anti-gravity taking over me
If you wanna break free
You know where to find me
If you wanna break free
You know where You know where..
Anti-gravity
Anti-gravity
