i was looking for a friend
but instead i found a lover
i never could of imagined
what i would of found if i quit looking for you
and everyday i’m gonna love you
everyday I'm gonna bug you
everyday i'm gonna miss
till the day i finally die
i don’t believe we were meant to be
that would mean it’s easy
i’m a lot of work
and thank you for not leaving
and everyday i’m gonna love you
everyday I'm gonna bug you
everyday i'm gonna miss
till the day i finally die

i wish i could of told you
what was going on in my head
i wish i didn’t find out
who was sleeping in your bed
i wish you didn’t tell me
all the terrible things you said
i wish you could of shown me
all the advice you had read
i wish i could of told you
what was going on in my head
i wish i could of known you
but you’re stranger to me instead
i wish i wasn’t haunted
by the living dead
i wish every river
i cross wasn’t painted red

i wish i could of said
what i needed then
it’s hard to know whats good for you
and when the times get rough
you gotta step up
or you will be left behind
i always
loved you
all through
doldrum days
i always
loved you
all through
doldrum days
in these times of doubt
we will all find out
what you are really made of
it’s ok to be scared
but be prepared
often the truth will really hurt
you always put up a fight
that’s not alright
you need to choose better words
i always
loved you
all through
doldrum days
i always
loved you
all through
doldrum days

hour of evil
03:18

i could sell my life for a little
i'm not worth much to anyone but my people
our enemies captured the steeple
heard it ring in the hour of evil
how long must we
stay up on this hill
how long will we survive by holding still
babies cry in the night
cause mothers can't hold them tight
my brother is asleep
i have a watch i need to keep
we are the last defense
if they break through the fence
never drop your guard
no matter how hard
how long must we stay up on this hill
how long will we survive by holding still
till we become who we were fight
and we forget what we've been dying for
i could sell my life for a little
i'm not worth much to anyone but my people
our enemies captured the steeple
heard it ring in the hour of evil
how long must we stay up on this hill
how long will we survive by holding still
till we become who we were fight
and we forget what we've been dying for

WHY DON’T
YOU STAY
HOME FOR THE NIGHT?
WHY DID
YOU GO
DRINK AND DRIVE?
WHEN I
CALLED YOU
I THOUGHT YOUR
PHONE DIED
EVER SINCE YOU
LEFT I HAVEN’T
CRIED
WHAT WOULD
YOU SAY
IF YOU COULD TALK?
I REMEMBER
YOUR OUTLINE IN CHALK
WHEN I
CALLED YOU
I THOUGHT YOUR PHONE DIED
WHEN I
CALLED YOU
I THOUGHT YOUR PHONE DIED

I NEVER SAID IT’D BE EASY
DIE YOUR HAIR JUST TO PLEASE ME
YOU DIDN’T HAVE TO DO THAT
I LIKED IT MORE WHEN IT WAS JET BLACK

YOU PROMISED YOU WEREN’T USING
DONT FEEL RIGHT
SLEEPING ALL ALONE
AINT THE SAME ON THE TELEPHONE
WE TALK FOR HOURS AND HOURS
YOU MUST HAVE MAGICAL POWERS
///////////////////////////////////////////////
ALL I

I NEVER SAID STOP RUNNING
STAYING ALIVE IS SOMETHING
YOU STARTED NOT TO LIKE ME
I MISS WHEN YOU WOULD JUST FIGHT ME
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
I NEED YOU MORE THAN I LEAD ON
I FEEL LIKE BOTH OF US FEED ON
THE DRAMA ON THE STAGE
THE THEATER OF MY RAGE
TRIED YOUR BEST TO WRITE ME OUT
YOUR HEART WAS ALWAYS FULL OF DOUBT
PLEASE LISTEN TO YOUR MIND
YOU SHOWED UP RIGHT ON TIME

tears of my love
03:23
|

i’ve never seen
you cry that
was it something i said
that made you mad?
feel like all we do
night after night
is argue
and then we fight
what happened to
who we used to be
i miss the old you
and the old me
wish i could take
back everything
those sweet littles lies
meant nothing
i couldn’t tell if the tears of my love
were for me
you know i think
you’re perfect
you always said
go and prove it
it’s easy
open your eyes
won’t compare me to the other guys
but you never let
yourself wander
what’s the point
why bother?
you stayed true
up until the end
i hope that we
can be friends

i used to write you
but you saw right through
i won't deny you
always had the right to
i tried to find you
in London mind you
i miss the times you
opened up your mind to
your mirage in my head got me thinking what you said
your mirage in my head got me thinking what you said
i tried to tell you
just how we fell through
how we had clue
what we were supposed to
and if you want to
i could not deny
all the lonely nights you
lay in my bed with you
your mirage in my head got me thinking what you said
your mirage in my head got me thinking what you said
i'm moving on now
though i could not say how
still see your face when
close your eyes were dreaming
your mirage in my head got me thinking what you said
your mirage in my head got me thinking what you said
