Failed Romance

Let’s face it now we need a hero,
Or are we just gonna let it go,
We've grown so tired of waiting,
Oh go on now and start the show.
A beauty twice as prized as deadly,
Will never find its way around here,
But oh maybe someone will see it,
And work together somehow, my dear.
Don't tell me now that we're losing,
That we never really had a chance.
Oh just go on and do it,
This isn’t time for failed romance.
It’s different, I feel it, it’s in my veins,
And I know that it’s wrong,
But it’s playing this game.
The words they’re flowing and I know why.
But if I tell you that, it’ll just be a lie.
It’s different, I feel it, it’s in my veins,
And I know that it’s wrong,
And it’s driving me insane.
The melody just keeps on flowing,
And the verses they all come along.
The only thing that were missing,
Is the reason to belong.
Throw out your silly inhibitions,
Erase the demons from your mind.
Oh, we don’t need to move so swiftly,
‘Cause we all know that love is deaf and blind.
It’s different, I feel it, it’s in my veins,
And I know that it’s wrong,
But it’s playing this game.
The words they’re flowing and I know why.
But if I tell you that, it’ll just be a lie.
It’s different, I feel it, it’s in my veins,
And I know that it’s wrong,
And it’s driving me insane.
Go on and take a rest now all you weary soldiers.
Forget your life and all of that which took you away.
Remember times that seemed so good that you couldn’t stop.
An overeager chance to make it all seem okay,
BUT NO!!
It’s different, I feel it, it’s in my veins,
And I know that it’s wrong,
But it’s playing this game.
The words they’re flowing and I know why.
But if I tell you that, it’ll just be a lie.
It’s different, I feel it, it’s in my veins,
And I know that it’s wrong,
And it’s driving me insane.

Six Words
03:34
|
|

And everything you said unkind,
I put it rightly out of mind.
Six words you thought you'd never hear,
They made you wanna dis-a…
They made you wanna disappear.
Into a broken dream
Oh tell me what it means,
But don’t you fall in to…
You know it can’t be true.
Yeah, it’s over now!
You know you’re done,
You fell back too,
But you found none of those who saw,
It just like you, you wondered how,
Did you get through?
Another time you slept a wake,
You couldn't see your own mistake,
Those words they seem to haunt you so,
You couldn't even just say,
You couldn't even just say no.
And so it just begins,
A cleansing from your sins,
But it just ends too soon,
This autumn afternoon.
Yeah, it’s over now!
You know you’re done,
You fell back too,
But you found none of those who saw,
It just like you, you wondered how,
Did you get through?
Through everything,
That’s in between,
You couldn't say,
So you just screamed.

It's Unlikely

Friday night, nothing’s going on, no.
So I don’t know why I got a smile on my face.
Me and my friends we are just a-rolling along,
Trying to get the hell out of this far off place.
But now, we're still here,
Don’t you know? Don’t you fear!
Soon enough, we’ll be gone.
You’ll all wish you had come, just to see how it’s done.
On holiday and I’m doing alright and,
Yes indeed there’s a smile on my face!
Me and my friends were still just a-rolling along,
But this time you know were just gonna set the pace.
But now, we're still here,
Don’t you know? Don’t you fear!
Soon enough, we’ll be gone.
You’ll all wish you had come, just to see how it’s done.
Tonight it’s no game, this is life, there’s no shame.
We stand here, sing to you, hope our noise carries through,
But I doubt, I’ll see…
This here again, it’s just unlikely,
That a little thing like us will ever go farther than this town,
But what if somehow maybe it works out and,
We go to god knows where,
Where no one will take us down!

Forty feet and sleazy bars show you all you need to see the stars,
Forty feet and sleazy bars, wonder when they'll all show their scars.
There's millions of people, they're all around you,
Everyone is scared inside.
They all come here to lose the feeling,
And all we do is gladly abide.
And so, we dance into the night, it's way too bright - in here.
Let's go and get some peace from the aches that pain our minds;
You're just too kind to me, I swear
Standing, looking there – dazed;
Just open up - your soul, 'cause it's your role tonight.
Danger doesn't knock on doors; No, I know it likes to strike in fours.
All the while, the real matter seems to be concerned with getting fatter.
And that's why they come here, so tired and scared,
They need the comfort of being dared,
To carry on doing, yeah, something sleazy,
And we're only here to make it real easy.
And so, we dance into the night, it's way too bright - in here.
Let's go and get some peace from the aches that pain our minds;
You're just too kind to me, I swear
Standing, looking there – dazed;
Just open up - your soul, 'cause it's your role tonight.
1, 2, 3, 4.
There's ten million people, they're all around you
Everyone is crying alone.
This is where they lose the feeling, while you're in the bathroom, getting stoned.
We're living in disbelief and wondering why you never lose,
Well, fuck you.

Oh no stop it, it’s not for you, trust me there and
I don’t think that if it was yours you would care,
That nothing ever works quite the way we agreed,
So take this outside, I need some time, let me think, please.
Nothings ever worked out, what the hell am I doing here?
Just please tell me what to do, cause it’s not fucking clear.
A little space to breath wouldn’t hurt too much either now,
I thought it wouldn’t be like this but I was wrong and how.
Oh god, won't you keep it down!
Your shouting’s way too loud,
Come back and don’t be proud.
Days are going by and yet I’m still without a clue,
I thought I did it all right but I guess that’s just not true,
If everything was meant to be then what the hell's the point?
Another wasted day, I wonder how I’ll disappoint.
So I say…
Oh no stop it, it’s not for you, trust me there and
I don’t think that if it was yours you would care,
That nothing ever works quite the way we agreed,
So take this outside, I need some time, let me think, please.
But no, may be there still hope…
To find ourselves again,
To what we had back then.
When you came in to my life I had no idea what's in store,
Now I find myself trying to get right out that door.
Oh no stop it, it’s not for you, trust me there and
I don’t think that if it was yours you would care,
That nothing ever works quite the way we agreed,
So take this outside, I need some time, let me think, please.

You said you'll leave and for now you're gone,
I was your king but now I’m just a pawn,
The words you say mean nothing my dear,
You're full of lies and destiny is clear.
You said you'll leave and for now you're gone,
You're just a line in yet another song,
The words I say mean nothing my dear,
But they are weapons and oh my aim is clear.
This war will never end we are not just friends we are forsaken enemies,
To hell with life or death, give me everything; I won't stop until you are done.
You said you'll leave, but you will be back,
And I’ll be ready for the next attack.
Your voice, it sounds just like hell to me,
I only wish you knew what you could be.
This war will never end we are not just friends we are forsaken enemies,
To hell with life or death, give me everything; I won't stop until you are done.

Have It On The Sunday

Have it on the Sunday or maybe it’s just Monday,
Your words are just on fire so burning with desire.
You know that it’s not right, no,
And everything you said so was…
Tell me what’s your secret and everything you regret,
And don’t you think I know more than everything you stand for,
But your fire burns too brightly, and it’s all that takes to fright me.
Yeah I'm finding it a bit too hard to run a way;
I'm losing track of everything that we say.
The days and nights and nights and days all feel the same,
And everything I hear is saying your name.
So now it’s Wednesday afternoon and Sunday's right around the corner,
Oh and everything that you would do if only I had not come over
And now it’s Thursday evening and all I hear is screaming,
And as I stare in your eyes I try to see what you hide,
And it’s just getting louder, then you blow like gun powder.
Yeah I'm finding it a bit too hard to run a way;
I'm losing track of everything that we say.
The days and nights and nights and days all feel the same,
And everything I hear is saying your name.
