1. THESE NIGHTS OF BROKEN GLASS

You found yourself alone
Underneath the burning starlit sky
The smoke is suffocating
Cover up your blood shot eyes

The people crowd the streets with fear, the enemy is here
They’ll cut us down now one by one
The buildings crumble now with every step you take
Just place your trust in me tonight, Ill steal your fears away

Stand by my side
Don’t you try to run away and hide tonight
Stand by my side
You will never make it out alive this time

They’re only steps behind
The path we pave tonight
So hurry now
So hurry now

I see their breath set in
Intentions soaked in sin
They’re all around
They’re all around

So say goodbye to every memory we’ve made
The past is gone forever
It will never be the same

Stand by my side,
Don’t you try to run away and hide tonight
Stand by my side
You will never make it out alive this time

Make it out alive

I'm falling faster
You did it again
Falling faster

Stand by my side
Don’t you try to run away and hide
Run away and hide
Stand by my side
You will never make it out alive
Make it out alive


2. IF WORDS COULD KILL

I’m holding back these thoughts that cloud my mind.
Your words hold no weight but they’ll be unending
Just like tonight
If words could kill I’d find the words to tell you how I feel
If the truth hurts I’d scream till your face turns to black and blue.

If words could kill I’d find the words to tell you how I feel
If the truth hurts I’d scream till your face turns to black and blue.

Sit back and take it in for way too long.
You turn to silence when things are wrong
hold me now, hold me back
I’m shaking off these tendencies
Of clinging so desperately to you
I’m making up for the lost time.

If words could kill I’d find the words to tell you how I feel
If the truth hurts I’d scream till your face fades to black and blue.

Never ask how he could do it.
When we have the same sickness.

Tears fill my eyes and I don’t deserve this.
Look in my eyes tell me how could you do this?
[repeat]

If words could kill I’d find the words to tell you how I feel
If the truth hurts I’d scream till your face fades to black and blue.


3. HEADPHONES

Just save your best defenses
All your words and misconceptions
This isn't a game, I'm taking away
Every promise that you ever stole from me

Just let the headphones sing you to sleep
I hope our memories are haunting your dreams
You're not that smooth, now honey
Let's not pretend
Mistakes like you will never happen again

I hope you cry when you see me stand alone without you
I think I'm better on my own
I wear my heart on your sleeve,
So say goodbye to everything
No matter how you try you'll never forget me

Just let the headphones sing you to sleep
I hope our memories are haunting your dreams
You're not that smooth, now honey
Let's not pretend
Mistakes like you will never happen again
I hope you shake
I hope your body trembles
You'll never forget me
(Tonight is the night, I'll let the melody sing my goodbyes)

You left me broken
You left me begging for each breath
How does it feel to be alone? (How does it feel to be alone?)
You left me broken
You left me begging for each breath
How does it feel, feel to be alone? (How does it feel to be alone?)

Just let the headphones sing you to sleep
I hope our memories are haunting your dreams
You're not that smooth, now honey
Let's not pretend
Mistakes like you will never happen again

You left me broken (Tonight, tonight)
You left me begging for each breath
How does it feel to be alone? (How does it feel to be alone?)
You left me broken (Tonight, tonight)
You left me begging for each breath
How does it feel, feel to be alone? (How does it feel to be alone?)


4. FOURTH OF JULY

This fourth of July
No fireworks or moonlight
No girl to hold or pen to write
Tonight I sigh alone goodnight.

I wish that I could whisper in your ear
All the reasons why. I need you here
An eternity you told me not to fear
All the reasons why you cant be here

So much for tonight
I lie awake with closed eyes
One restless sleep, just kill some time
Tonight I sigh
This fourth of July
I wont be looking in your eyes
No hand to hold or lip to bite
Tonight I sigh alone goodnight

I wish that I could whisper in your ear
All the reasons why. I need you here
An eternity you told me not to fear
All the reasons why you cant be here

I won’t say goodbye cause this cant be the last time
One restless sleep to kill some time
Tonight I sigh alone goodnight

So I say no
I won’t let you go
No not like this
I’d never know what I had missed


5. COME BACK HOME

Got your pictures
Constantly reminding me
I won't be sleeping tonight
And this empty feeling I have inside
Lets me know that I was just a waste of time
When you find yourself alone
and theres no place left to go

Come back home
Please come back to me
With open arms
I will receive you

Come back home
Please come back to me
It's been so long
I’m dying to see you

You’ve taken everything
You’ve lost yourself
You’ve never been here before
Your fading faster under sunset skies
Always searching for more
So when you find yourself alone
and there’s no place left to go

Come back home
Please come back to me
With open arms
I will receive you

Come back home
Please come back to me
It's been so long
I’m dying to see you

It's getting hard to see you like this
How do I save a love that’s fading faster
Head first and heading for disaster

It's getting hard to see you like this
How do I save a love that’s fading faster
Head first and heading for disaster

Come back home
Please come back to me
With open arms
I will receive you

Come back home
Please come back to me
It's been so long
I’m dying to see you

Please come back home
Please come back home
Please come back home
I’m dying to see you


6. HEAR ME OUT

Hello my enemy were meeting one more time
your carrying my ego and your stealing every line
I've had all I can drink, I've given up for this disease
Please pull me out now, I'm already to far gone

This fires burning and I'm right here are the edge
It's everything I wanted, But I'll fall to these regrets
I'll beg for something just to feed this pure release
But this fires my desire and it's slowly overtaken me

Now everyone has seen reactions to my crimes
I'm calling out for help please someone tell me I'm alright
I'm so sick and depressed of this loneliness
I'm just a failure
Its addiction to your eyes

Take back, take it all away
Take back, take it all away
I've never let you down
So just hear me out
Falling away from me, just to escape reality
So please pull me out, before I drown myself

I think I'm lost here again, a mistake and I've let myself down
I know I'm over the edge, a mistake and I've let myself down, let myself


7. SEATTLE SKIES

Hey there saving grace,
Please place this rose upon the grave
it's too late.
The crowd has gathered here,
It doesn't make it easier to let you go.
It's too late for goodbyes;
it's so hard to watch them cry, tonight.
It's too late now this time,
it's so hard to say goodbye.

I know you finally found your way,
I still need you in my life,
and I miss you everyday,
I know you finally found your way,
But this skyline's getting old;
it will never be the same.

Hey there missing faith,
God shine the sun upon his face,
once again.
The crowd has gone away,
but our memories remain.
And now, it's too late for goodbyes,
it's so hard to watch them cry.
It's too late now this time,
it's so hard to say goodbye.

I know you finally found your way,
I still need you in my life,
and I miss you everyday,
I know you finally found your way,
But this skyline's getting old;
it will never be the same.
