Lyrics

1. BREATHE HOPE IN ME

I'm so afraid, I can't hold on this time
Thats why I write, to let you know
Just what goes on

'Cause this is me, and everything i've dreamed
And you know that I can't just settle for anything

Just once more can we pretend that everything is okay
And that we are all happy

Breathe hope in me
I need you
I try so hard to make this work in my life
I still believe in you

Play that faster and maybe they will move to our sound
This is the way its supposed to be
Coming together, on the dance floor will
You light the scene

Sing along
This is your favorite song
And we'll play along
'Cause you're the reason I'm alive

Close your eyes
Sit back and relax, we'll be okay
Time and time again,
I'll pray you're looking back
By the wake

So here we, we are, again (x4)

Close your eyes
Sit back and relax, we'll be okay
Time and time again,
I do hope you come back
By the wake

Close your eyes
Sit back and relax, we'll be okay
Time and time again,
I'll pray you're looking back
By the wake
By the wake
Awake
By the wake


2. IF LOOKS COULD KILL...THEN YOU'D BE DEAD

Something's wrong and it's not me for once,
And I know you'll call me crazy.
But I hate the way you look straight through me.
What have I done that's so wrong?
Remember me, when I'm so far from your reach,
When you'll know you had your chance.
Take one more glance, and that's the end of our romance.

You've turned your back on me for the last time.

Remember when we use to be friends?
Nothing could ever go wrong, or so we thought,
But I guess you've changed a lot since we were young.
Times will change, and there's nothing I can say
To right all of your wrongs.
Just grow up, and pray we'll keep in touch.

You've turned your back on me for the last time.

I still dream of the day that I watched you choke.

They'll act like I'm so crazy
When they find you dead on my floor.
Right now, right now.

I'd say something went wrong in our lives,
And I pray that god saves us before we die.

He's everything that you could never be.
(x6)

Right now, right now, right now.

I'd say something went wrong in our lives,
And I pray that god saves us before we die.

Slowly die.


3. LAST REQUEST

They noticed the ways you changed
Over the years, but we all stayed the same
Look back through the past
But we all knew that you wouldn't last

You see yourself in the puddles left from the rain
But all we remember is your stain
Just live your life, live it for yourself and be happy
So your wrong, in the ways you wanted to be
The only one who matters is you

Now watch you slip away
To the ledge you've chosen finally
You picked your role now play your part
But what you didn't know this plays a tragedy

You see yourself in the puddles left from the rain
But all we remember is your stain
Just live your life, live it for yourself and be happy
So your wrong, in the ways you wanted to be
The only one who matters is you

What you waiting for
I bet you didn't know where we were coming from
What you waiting for
I bet you didn't know where we were coming from
What you waiting for
I bet you didn't know where we were coming from

Cause it breaks, my heart
Cause it breaks my heart
Cause it breaks my heart
Cause it breaks

Just live your life, live it for yourself and be happy
So your wrong, in the ways you wanted to be
The only one who matters is

What you waiting for
I bet you didn't know where we were coming from
What you waiting for
I bet you didn't know where we were coming from
What you waiting for
I bet you didn't know where we were coming from


4. THIS SUN HAS SET

This sun has set on your heart
chances for redemption
and I have forgotten your name.
And I thought it’d be easy
to move on completely,
forgetting what was real and what was.

Forget the past
don’t, for once, think you’re better than what I have.
You’re the reason I never trusted anyone
Forget the past
don’t, for once, think you’re better than what I have.
You’re the reason I never trusted anyone

Just to forget
wouldn’t make me as happy as it would to hate.
Just to forgive
is so much more than you are worth.

Think the time we spent
well so do I.
and you
tore my life apart

Single breath
You coulda cared less if I was dead
if I was dead

Just to forget
wouldn’t make me as happy as it would to hate.
Just to forgive
is so much more than you are worth.

You care so much about yourself,
That it makes me sick
To think of you.

Do you think how much I lost
For you.


5. WESTFALL

It's the start of a brand new day
And I'm struggling to stay awake
So I can just stumble outside

Losing hope and my whole life
I'm just scraping by
Hoping no one will notice me

Here I am again
Trying to give in
To another bitter end

I don't think it'd be wrong
To be alone tonight
Please make this all end

(And I'm watching the lights flow by)
Watching the cars pass
Thinking they won't last
Darkness clouds all of my windows
Darkness clouds all of my windows

Taking my last breath
Time flows out my chest
I have lost the will to be
I have lost the will to be

Here I am again
Trying to give in
To another bitter end

I don't think it'd be wrong
To be alone tonight
Please make this end

And I could've changed the world
with my accomplishments
And I could've changed the world
with my accomplishments

Here I am again
Trying to give in
To another bitter end

I don't think it'd be wrong
To be alone tonight
Please make this end

And I could've changed the world
With my accomplishments
And I could've changed the world
With my accomplishments
And I could've changed the world
With my accomplishments
And I could've changed the world
With my accomplishments
