LYRICS

Crash

As I lay here tossing in my bed
Lost in these thoughts
Remembering what you said
And I try to hide the truth within
The mask of myself shows its face again
Still I lie here time and time again
Will you deny me when we meet again

And I feel like I'm falling
Farther every day
But I know that you're there
Watching over me
And I feel like I'm drowning
The waves crashing over me
But I know that your love
It will set me free

As I find truth where I found it times before
As I search for your hope
I'm finding so much more
And I try to be more like you
And I deny myself to prove my heart is true

I hear your voice calling
The time has come for me
Inside this life I'm living
There's nothing left for me
My mind is slowly fading
So far away from me
Each time I start crawling
You're there watching me

The Way I Feel

Lately I've been wandering
Off the narrow path
You've given me so many things that I've never had
And all in all I know it's you that always pulls me through
If you reach deep inside you'll see my heart is true

�Cause I hate the way I feel tonight
And I know I need you in my life
Yes I hate the way I feel inside
And I promise to make the sacrifice

The world I know is pulling me
More and more each day
I feel like the odd man out as I begin to pray
Spiteful eyes are watching me
With everything I do
In the midst of darkness Lord
My spirit calls for you

(You know sometimes deep inside)
I feel like this

Home

In my eyes you see the pain
With each lie I take the blame
With each sigh I slowly fall away
You are there when I need you
You sew me up when I bleed through
The endless cloth of lies surrounding me

Everything that I am you have given me
The lessons that I've learned are bringing me home

It's everything that I need
It's all the truth that I believe
Right where I need to be
Just bring me home

I hide in darkness blind to sense
Chasing a dream with false pretense
Help me find the fracture in this dark sky
Everything that I believe
Is slowly overtaking me
I'm just trying to find my way back home

Everything that I am you have given me
The lessons that I've learned are bringing me home

Endless days are haunting me
Open eyes and I can't sleep
I need this now rescue me
Just bring me home

You can't bring me down
�Cause I'm going home

Fade Away

I need you to feel exactly like I do inside
But I feel so alone again
I try to find a better life
Somewhere far away from here
But I need you to believe in me

But I won't be afraid
Just because you don't need me
I will not be ashamed
Just because you don't believe in anything that I say
Now I turn and I walk away from you

I won't fade away
I won't fade away again

I find you down the road that I have walked before
And I know you're alone again
You try to find a better life
Somewhere far away from here
But I need you to believe in me

You try to make me fade away

In my head

I'm reaching out without a sound
My pride falls to the floor again
Inside my mind I search to find
A place just to call my own

Deep inside your eyes
I am blinded by your love
Still I run so far just to find that
I'm alone again

In my head
I hear you calling me
And I can't run
�cause there's nothing left for me
When I fall you always follow me deep inside
Deep inside
Deep inside of my head

I just can't last as these feelings pass
Once again I hide the pain inside
The smile wears thin and the lies begin
To bring me down again

When I run I run so far away from you
I hide the pain and all the lies deep inside again
And all my faith I put in you
This time you take it all away

Inside my head
Deep inside
My head

Running Out Of Pain

As he raises his hand you begin to understand
That no love is worth the hate that you feel
Now you're running out of pain
And all these feelings feel the same
So you close your eyes and wish it all away

And I lie awake and I try to say
Anything I know just to ease your pain
But you hide away where no one can see
And it's only you that can set you free

Now the time has come again
So you reach deep down within
To find the strength that you have buried there
As you turn to walk away you can still hear him say
You'll never make it in this world alone

You try to fight (you try to fight)
You hide the pain (you hide the pain)
You walk away (never again)

Far Away

Something keeps on pulling me down
And I feel like I'm losing ground
Trying just to find my reasons
And losing sense of what is real
Willing to believe in something
Forgetting to believe in me
Will I find my place in your mind
Or will I fall away in time

Now I'm feeling so far away
And now I'm hating you every day

Waiting just to see the end
As you follow down that road again
Trying just to find your purpose
You're fading faster every day
Willing to believe in something
Forgetting to believe in me
Will I find my place in your mind
Or will I fall away in time

Now I feel I'm losing time
And yesterday slipped away
But you didn't know
And time and time again you wanted more that I had to give
To leave me with nothing
I'm waiting and dreaming
Yesterday slipped away
But you didn't know
No more waiting
Let me be

Shadows

Look around and tell me what you see
A place surrounded by the hate that hides in the shadows
Inside of you, inside of me
What can we ever hope to see if we're not looking
Don't you want to find your own way home again
Just leave your hate behind

When will you learn to just be you
Find your own way
When will you learn to follow through
Make your own way

Looking for something to believe
I find the answer starts with me
Each time i follow
Inside of you, inside of me
What can we ever hope to be if we're not trying
Don't you want to find your own way home again
Just leave your hate behind

Find another way to get inside me
Find yourself
Don't you want to find your own way home again
Just leave your hate behind

Photograph

Fear falls hard like rain again
Washing over me
You say nothing will ever change
What do i believe
You fall deep inside again
Nothing left to see
Weakness fills your heart again
You put it to rest

Forfeit everything
'Cause you were never strong enough
Close my eyes again
And pray that i will not give up

I try to see your face again
A Photograph for me
Your voice calling out again
Nothing left for me
You try to find your place again
Waiting just to breathe
Weakness takes your heart again
You put it to rest

Locked inside again x3

Did you forget about the things i said
Fight the lies inside your head
Deny those who try to bring you down
Kill the pain and emptiness
Find a love and lose yourself
Without this life you're just a memory

Locked inside again x3

3 Leaf Loser

Biting the hand that feeds you
Lying to the voice inside
Reach out to beg for something
This life is a lesson, take what you're given
Feeding on self destruction
Waiting to explode again
No sign of resolution
This life is a lesson, take what you're given

You don't need direction to find your way
Don't you listen to yourself now and again
Killing time, killing you mind over matter
Stop and listen to yourself now

Bend me before i breakdown
Dying to be free within
It's not how you'd like to see it
This life is a lesson, take what you're given
Forcing your self solution as you fall into line again
When will i find the answers
This life is a lesson, take what you're given

Falling to the ground
Left face down as i recall
The mirrors ugly glare
