1. PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT

You all have something to say, or something to ask
I don't live in a cage, it's none of your
You all have something to say, or something to ask
I don't live in a cage, it's none of your business
It's none of your business

Gonna say this clear so you get it straight
You don't know a thing about me
Who I am from what I read, oh, I sound so sickening
Your attempts to bring me down, fuel my fire and build my sound
I can't believe all the things I hear

You all have something to say about me
How can you stop and listen, when all you do is talk?
You all have something you want to take from me
And I can't hold my tongue anymore

Shut up

You all have something that you want to say to me
You all have something to ask
It's none of your business
It's none of your business

I'm well aware I did three days alone in a cell
A simple, easy price to pay for something that I felt
Towards someone so deserving
I hate those who prey on weak
If asked to do it all again, I would if needed be

All of these people talking about my story
As if they've lived it before
All of these people they don't even know me
But I love how you think you know me better than I know myself

You know me better than myself

You all have something to say, or something to ask
I don't live in a cage, it's none of your business
It's none of your business

All of these people, talking about my story
Just keep talking, just keep talking
It's none of your business

You all have something to say about me
You all have something to ask
It's none of your business
(x2)


2. GLASS HEARTS

Fuck

These are the hardest four years of my life,
They walk right by me heads turned with closed eyes.
They don't even see me.
At night in my house I'm still all alone.
This is not a home.
They don't even see me.

The scars on my body, they don't even bleed.
I never do this for me.
The scars on my body, they don't even bleed.
I only do this for you to see.

How am I supposed to see through your eyes when you never saw the stars were falling at your feet?

Is it a song? Is that what they need?
For so long I've tried to get them to hear me.
Picking and stabbing, their words feel like knives.
Tearing and ripping the seams of my life.

I've tried to convince them
Their words hurt like stones.
I just wish they'd just leave me alone.

I am on my knees.
I need you to hear to me.
I am on my knees.
Hear me, please.

How am I supposed to, to hear what you hear when you never heard the sound of our glass hearts breaking with every tick of the clock when you are gone?

(How am I supposed to see through your eyes?)

I know what you've been through,
This hell was my life.
You have to keep pushing,
I've seen through your eyes.

Your days are like pages,
The chapters unread,
You have to keep turning
Your book has no end.


3. BROKEN GENERATION

He sits and he waits,
Feeling broken and hollow.
Hands held close to his face.
Screaming, "Why do I bother?"

They'll just tear me down,
Rip me apart, cast aside like a sinner
With no words from the wise

Will you ever learn, will you ever learn, will you ever learn, learn to listen?

Can you hear them calling?
You'll testify to justify, you have to find a way!
Can you hear them calling?
With arcane eyes you're staring back at someone with no face!
Can you hear them calling?

She lies there in wait
And feeling so hollow.
Can't find love in this place,
Left alone with her sorrow.

All the promises you made
When you stood by her side were so broken
When you threw it away

Will you ever learn, will you ever learn, will you ever learn, learn to listen?

Can you hear them calling?
You'll testify to justify, you have to find a way!
Can you hear them calling?

We'll mobilize, not pacify to save another day
Can you pick up all the pieces of this broken generation (broken generation)?
Can you hear them calling?

The road to hell is paved in good intentions and apathy,
What did you expect when common sense is your enemy?
I'd rather burn alive than drown inside your reality

Can you hear me?
Are you listening?

Can you hear them calling?
You'll testify to justify, you have to find a way!
Can you hear them calling?
We'll climb the walls to scratch the sky to save another day

Can you pick up all the pieces of this broken generation
(pick up all the pieces of this broken generation)?
Can you hear them calling?


4. O.G. LOKO

I'm coming in hot,
I'm coming in fast,
Take my time,
It's so damn hard
I'll make this last.

I'm the artist,
Paints in white,
Your skin canvas,
I'll leave you scratching, gasping, screaming, screaming

I was lost,
Until I found myself inside of you

My friend, my love, my life,
My... truth be told I would,
Set my whole world on fire
Just to watch it burn in your eyes

(x2)
Meet my dedication, inspiration
It may be smothering you
But you know it's the truth

Set my world on fire
It caught spark in your eyes
And now I could never see myself with no other baby
I've had you so many times
But you know I could never get enough of your love

I could never get enough
I could never get enough of your love

(x2)
Meet my dedication, inspiration
It may be smothering you
But you know it's the truth

(x2)
I'm still here
This is faithfulness at its finest

Shh

I'm still here
This is faithfulness at its finest
I'm still here
This is faithfulness


5. LET LIVE

I was all for you
You fell over my love
I just can't afford it this time

Here's a story, just bare with me
Met a drug that changed my life
Something like a classic movie
Just one look, all stopped with time
Let her in through these very veins
Coursing through these tired bones
Numb my body, healed my heart
Soothes my mind, and eased my soul

These are the memories between us
Let it go, and let live again

I was all for you, you fell over my love
I just can't afford it this time
I was all for you, you fell over my love
I just can't afford it this time

You let me live, believing all your life
You let me live your lie, live your lie

You let me believe, and live your lie

Guess I should have seen this coming
Should have known it all along
You're a fake, see clear right through you
Left me dying, it's all your fault

These are the memories between us
Let it go, and let live again

I was all for you, you fell over my love
I just can't afford it this time
I was all for you, you fell over my love
I just can't afford it this time.

I gave you everything, and you just throw away
Know what I deserve, know that I should let, let you go

Let you go. This is me, letting you go…

I was all for you, you fell over my love
I just can't afford it this time
I was all for you, you fell over my love
Now I'm left with thoughts of suicide…

Let you go, you're killing me


6. YOU MAKE ME SICK

I want you to stop,
To sit and think,
Of all the times you tried to steal from me,
Ride my coat tails, use my name.
Your smiles exposed all your fangs,
Your forked tongue is always running,
Spilling from your mouth,
I suggest you bind it up and keep it,
Keep it to yourself.

You make me sick, just go away!
I'm exposing all of your fangs.
Your tongue is poisoning,
You serpent, you snake, you make me sick!
Sick!

The apple in your mouth,
Comes from the riches made from me.
Keep it, eat it, have your fill,
I hope you're choking.

Like a snake with my foot on your head,
Don't want you dead, need you alive,
To feel every moment when I crush it.

You disgust me.

You make me sick, just go away!
I'm exposing all of your fangs.
Your tongue is poisoning.
Feeding on the weak, you serpent, you snake,
You make me sick!

I'm nauseous, you're wretched with false power, you've gone mad,
Unhinged and disgusting.
I'm nauseous, you're wretched with false power, you've gone mad,
Unhinged and disgusting.
You're gruesome and you're grim.

All you do is make me feel exactly what you are!
All you do is make me feel exactly what you are!
You make me sick!

You serpent,
You lying snake,
You make me sick.


7. THIS ONE'S FOR YOU

Friend of mine, I've tried a revolution.
Everyone screaming, "It's not fair, it's not fair."
It's not fair, it's not fair.

I'll play the Romeo, you play the Juliet.
The sun won't set, until you appear.
Cause I know you're the one, my love, my love.

What light through this window breaks?
So bright, so bright.
My life just for one more day.
So bright, you're so bright.

Fall (fall) fast (fast), the course of love never did run smooth.
I'll try, I'll try to dream on my own tonight.

We will meet in the moonlight.
Meet in the moonlight. (Oh)
We will meet in the moonlight.
Meet in the moonlight.

This is not pretend, don't play the end.
I know you're real and not just a book I read.
Soon I will show you how a heart can never fail, never change.
I'll never change.
I'll show you the sun can never, never change
I'll never, never change.

If music be the food of love, play on, play on.
If music be the food of love, play on, play on.

Love.


8. FEELS LIKE FOREVER

Did you ever contemplate when all was lost you hesitate
And nothing seems the same?
Have you ever hid your face, in such disgrace, decisions made,
A picture with no frame?

Can you hold on one more day?

Say you're okay,
I'm afraid that tomorrow is just too far away.
Fight the pain,
It just feels like forever is crashing down on me
Down on me, me, me.

Rain will fall. Wash all the pain. It shields the soul, you turn the page
To face another day.
Let me know that you will wait and I will pay for my mistakes
To feel the sun again.

Can you hold on?

Say you're okay,
I'm afraid that tomorrow is just too far away.
Fight the pain,
It just feels like forever is crashing down on me.

Don't let go, time will heal.
Just don't let go (don't let go, don't let go).
One day we can learn to start again.

Say you're okay,
I'm afraid that tomorrow is just too far away.
Fight the pain,
It just feels like forever (feels like forever) forever...
It feels like forever is crashing down on me
Down on me, me, me.
Down on me!


9. BONES EXPOSED

It's like loving a lion that cannot be tamed,
I snap at the thought or the sound of your name.
Pulling teeth from my stomach,
you've been eaten alive.
My blood fills your lungs,
my soul, you're inside.

My feet they stand on ashes from the fires that you've made.
Burning bridges just to save your face.

If I say I wouldn't be hostile,
could you say you would do the same?
If we're all made just a little bit broken,
tell me who is to blame?
tell me who is to blame?

I'm sensing a feeling picking wounds of regret,
That left alone there's no scarring I'll dig and I'll dig,
Scratching and itching I'll keep biting my lip,
from this pain that I'm feeling,
picking wounds of regret.

A cut cannot heal,
unless you leave it alone.
I'll open mine daily,
leaving bones exposed.

If I say I wouldn't be hostile,
could you say you would do the same?
If we're all made just a little bit broken,
tell me who is to blame?
tell me who is to blame?

Standing on ashes from the fires you've made,
burning your bridges just to save your face.

Wounds of regret.

If I say I wouldn't be hostile,
could you say you would do the same?
If we're all made just a little bit broken,
tell me who is to blame?
tell me who is to blame?

We're broken, imperfect,
we were all made the same.
We're broken, we're broken, imperfect,
we are all to blame.


10. WOULD YOU STILL BE THERE

If I could find the words, if I could shake the world,
If I could turn back time would you still be there?

I can't stop thinking about the way
I left you sinking with no escape.
Now there's no lifeline, no way to save.
But maybe next time I won't throw it all away.

I ask myself everyday...

If I could find the words, if I could shake the world,
If I could turn back time would you still be there?
If I could find the words to say,
If I could shake the world to break you down,
Then would you still be there?

Would you still be there? (x2)

Dislocated, I lie awake
Suffocating in my mistakes.
I lost my halo when I fell from grace,
But maybe next time I won't throw it all away.

I ask myself everyday...

If I could find the words, if I could shake the world,
If I could turn back time would you still be there?
If I could find the words to say,
If I could shake the world to break you down,
Then would you still be there?

There's no dancing around it,
I crawl into the fire then fan the flames,
And I can't stand it
And I can't stand it
But I don't have the strength to burn the page

If I could find the words, if I could shake the world,
If I could turn back time would you still be there?

If I could find the words, if I could shake the world,
If I could turn back time would you still be there?
If I could find the words to say,
If I could shake the world to break you down
Then would you still be there?
Would you still be there?


11. ANOTHER YOU

White walls
Filled with nothing
But nervous paces
All around I see.
Something's off
Inside of myself.
I see it in their faces.

[Chorus:]
Say anything, say anything,
Say anything that can make this all okay.
Take it away, take it away,
Take away all of this emptiness I feel
'Cause I will never find another you.

Another you, another you.

I still hear you in this house (whispering).
I still feel you in my bones (in these veins).
And like the portraits in the halls (can't help but think),
I wish you were staring back at me (but you're gone).

[Chorus]
Say anything, say anything,
Say anything that can make this all okay.
Take it away, take it away.
Take away all of this emptiness I feel
'Cause I will never find another (I may never find myself)
I will never find another you

So I'll carry you with me in my dreams, my memory.
So I'll carry you with me (you'll always be with me) in my dreams, my memory.
So I'll carry you with me, you'll always be my memory.

[Chorus]
Say anything, say anything,
Say anything that can make this all okay.
Take it away, take it away.
Take away all of this emptiness I feel
'Cause I will never find another (I may never find myself)
And I will never find another you


12. IDENTITY DISORDER

Your heart is a fire,
But the cold is comforting.
My mouth is a liar,
With my silver tongue in cheek

The silence is deafening.
My words cut deep.
The darkness is blinding,
Consuming me.

All I am is what I say
So turn your back and walk away.
My words cut deep, but the silence is deafening.

I am starving (for something that's real)
So I bite the hand that feeds (they all took from me)
The pieces I'm missing (that's what they want from me)
Will be exactly what I need

The silence is deafening.
My words cut deep.
The darkness is blinding,
Consuming me.

All I am is what I say
So turn your back and walk away.
My words cut deep, but the silence is deafening.

I question every part of who I am.
I question every part of who I am!
It's hard to tell which side of me is in the right
With these two different people inside of me fighting for my life, fighting for my life
I question every part of who I am

The silence is deafening!
My words cut deep!
The darkness is blinding,
Consuming me!

All I am is what I say
So turn your back and walk away!
My words cut deep, but the silence is deafening!


13. SECOND & SEBRING

I believe it's time for me
To be famous and out of place.
I believe it's time for me
To move forward when I break through.
When I break through.
When I break through.
When I break through.

This time I'll make you,
Proud to see me over come on day light.
Proud of, who you raised.
Your shelter, your peacefulness.

So this time I'll make you proud.

Proud of, who you raised up.
You know that I will,
Always be here 'til the end.

Come back so I can say thank you for this,
Home cooked meals and a place to rest

My troubled head when you're away,
I've passed the test, I've earned an A,
Not just in school, but in life,
You'll always be right by my side.
To help me show, hope to all,
That are lost and sick in this dying world.
I'll use the love you left behind,
I'll change their minds, I'll change their minds.

I hope,
I hope you smile,
When you look down on me.
I hope you smile.

This can't, we won't know.
I hope that I make you proud.

This is not what it is, only baby scars. (These baby scars)
I need your love like a boy needs his mother's side. (I need your side)
This is not what it is, only baby scars.
I need your love like a boy needs his mother's side.

This is not what it is, only baby scars.
I need your love like a boy needs his mother's side, yeah.


14. THE DEPTHS

Get up!

And here we go...

Now listen up I'll say a thing or two,
I bet I know something about you,
That you don't even know,
You don't wanna believe,
I know you're down for anything.

That's not what you're looking for,
There's not a reason to walk out that door,
And I don't even want you to sing,
I just want you to jump with me.

I'm so complicated

My body's failing,
I think I've hit the floor,
I cannot feel anything anymore.
My body's failing,
I think I've hit the floor,
I can't remember anything anymore.

And I'm gonna miss your face for a long long time (for a long, long time)
And I can't escape this place, it's in my mind ('cause it's in my mind)

And now that you don't even care,
I've got you inside the palm of my hand.
You don't really wanna get inside my head,
Let's leave out all our skeletons.

The dead just like you will rise,
So come on lift your voices towards the sky,
Now I want you to jump, now I want you to sing,
Now I want you to scream with me...

I've been put down for way too long,
"You'll never be good enough."
All they told me was "Just give up,
You'll never be good enough."

I've been put down for way too long,
"You'll never be good enough."
All they told me was "Just give up,
You'll never be good enough", never good enough

Pushing me, pushing me,
Shut up.
Shut up.

I'm gonna miss your face,
I'm gonna miss your taste,
I'm gonna miss your face,
It's in my mind...

I'm gonna miss your face,
I'm gonna miss your taste,
I'm gonna miss your face,
It's all in my mind...

My body's failing,
I think I've hit the floor,
I cannot feel anything anymore.
My body's failing,
I think I've hit the floor,
I can't remember anything anymore.


15. YOU'RE NOT ALONE

When your reflection in the mirror,
Smiles back, it lies, you know it.
When you lay your head to sleep at night,
It's filled with every moment,
Every chance you missed to be something,
Or learn from your mistakes,
You're not alone.
You're with me.
You're not alone.
You're with me.

Don't let the world bring you down,
There's always hope for the willing.
Don't let the world bring you down,
It's not over, you're not alone anymore.

When it feels like all is lost,
And there's no guide that's left to prove it,
Take a look inside,
Cherish your life & live before you lose it.
You're all waiting for the answers,
Keep on searching, strength in numbers.

Don't let the world bring you down,
There's always hope for the willing.
Don't let the world bring you down,
It's not over, you're not alone anymore.

At the end of the day,
What will you choose?
Will you keep moving on,
Or be forced to lose?
Look inside of yourself,
Cause the power's in you,
There is always hope,
You're not alone anymore.

Don't let the world bring you down,
There's always hope for the willing.
Don't let the world bring you down,
It's not over, you're not alone anymore.

Don't let the world bring you down,
Don't let the world bring you down,
Don't let the world bring you down,
It's not over, we're not alone anymore.
