1. All In A Year
(Where have you gone?)
How does time pass by so fast?
Seems like yesterday
You and I,
We Could Relate
But you know how things change. (Things change!)
But is it me, or is it time?
Now I'm stuck looking back
On something that I'll
Never have again.
All this time with regret,
(I Just Lost Today!)
Worrying about yesterday.
All this time with regret,
(I Just Lost Today!)
Worrying about yesterday.
Can't live, can't live, can't live in
(Yesterday!)
Can't live in yesterday.
Can't live in yesterday.
Can't live -- in yesterday...
All this time with regret,
(I lost today!)
Worrying about yesterday
(I lost today!)
And no, I'll never forget about you.
(I lost today!)
I just came to terms that I've lost you
(On with my life!)
[x3]
On with, on with my life.
2. Give And Take
How far would you go to satisfy?
Everything that you long for,
And you wanted so bad.
It seemed to take over you world.
Nothing in this life is ever free.
You've heard a billion times;
Still there's a gap haunting you,
Questioning the (air you breathe).
Questioning the truth.
(To find) substance
To find a truth.
Something absolute in a stone cold world,
I guess it's easier said than done.
But there's a life that goes beyond.
Now all that I can do is share.
What I have with you.
Yeah, what I have with you.
Everytime you walk away,
Everytime I'll be the same.
That's a choice to respect.
That's a choice I accept.
Everytime you walk away,
Everytime I'll be the same.
That's a choice to respect.
That's a choice I accept.
(But I'll still be here!)
I'll always be here,
I'll always...
(But I'll still be here!)
I'll always be here,
I'll always...
3. Die Tonight
Something in your eyes
Tells me that you want more, or maybe something less.
But I just won't know, standing outside looking in.
Broken dreams. Memories.
Maybe now's the time to go.
Let go; let go!
I'll save my last goodbye.
For now I'll leave this at goodnight, (tonight.)
Tonight, tonight, tonight
I'm thinking:
I'll save my last goodbye.
For now I'll leave this at goodnight, tonight.
I'll leave this for tonight.
Take a breath. Breathe it in.
Here's where we move on.
I'm sick of living in between.
Broken dreams. Memories.
I can think of simpler times,
when the good days weren't destroyed by lies.
Time to let it go. (Let it go!)
I'll say my last goodbye.
So now I'm leaving you. Goodnight, (tonight.)
Tonight, tonight, tonight
I'm leaving.
I'll say my last goodbye.
So now I'm leaving you. Goodnight, tonight.
Tonight, tonight, tonight
I'm letting go.
Die with tonight.
Some thing of the past,
Some thing of the past,
Some thing of the past,
Let go, let go, let go!
[x5]
4. Changing Face
What have you become?
Now you fight a losing war.
I look at this, and it's all a mess.
Seems like anything that's real, I just can't see.
I can't see the truth in you.
I can't see the real in you.
Show your face and take the world.
But instead, you have to fit the mold.
With this front, you're losing respect.
I know you're better than that.
Your time is running out.
Your front is wearing thin.
So how long can you live like this?
Your front is wearing thin.
So how long can you live like--
This--I know this isn't who you really are.
Do you want (to break free)?
I know this isn't who you really are.
Do you want (to break free)
from all the lies you put in front?
Now take them back.
Do you want (to break free)?
Your front is wearing thin.
I don't need a crew to validate myself.
(You're all the same!)
Your identity, fading fast.
[x3]
5. Playing The Part
Take a hit,
Push me down,
And leave me on the ground.
So long.
I should have seen this
Coming my way.
(NO!) I didn't say the
(World would end)!
I know good things come and go,
But things aren't the same.
Take a hit,
Push me down,
And leave me on the ground.
So long.
I should have seen this
Coming my way.
(NO!) I didn't say the
(World would end)!
I know good things come and go,
But things aren't the same.
Things aren't the same (without you)!
Things aren't the same (without you)!
Time to face all my mistakes.
The curtains opened up,
I'm on stage for all to see,
For all to see through me.
6. Always
Never thought it'd be this way,
But this gap between us grew.
We grew two separate ways.
I never--
Set out to tear this down, cause in my heart it's worth,
It's worth so much more, than I could ever show.
It's worth more than I could show, with words that I can't say.
The pain is wearing thin, how did this fall apart?
Reminded of a time, I thought you'd never slip away.
Was I too quick to run away?
Was I too quick to run away?
You never know what you have ('til it's gone)!
You never know what you have ('til it's gone away)!
All I have, all I would give,
if there were some way to save this.
[x4]
Always knew your name.
Some things never change.
(Never change!)
Always knew you name.
Some things never change.
7. Step Ahead
(Back again!)
Right where I started,
And I can't find anything
To take me out of your
Shallow waters
That I've been drowning in so long (so long).
Who's here to take me out?
Time to face another day,
But will it be just like the last one?
It's up to me to make the difference this time.
I'll face another day,
But will it be just like the last?
(NO!)
You talk loud without words.
I've had enough manipulation.
[x2]
I found my way out.
I'm not a slave to your game.
[x2]
(I found my way out!)
(Taking back what's mine!)
[x4]
I will take back!
8. Operative Word
The blood's left on my hands,
And it's up to me to wash away.
It's up to me to make it right.
Forget the past,
What's done is done.
I always tread so easily,
Now it's time that I live my words
Living in those days that hold me back
(They hold me back).
They hold me down.
I knew this wouldn't get me far.
Just away from you, full of myself
And I know
That there's something inside of me
That I can give.
That I can give to you.
That I can give to you.
So many times I looked away,
Passing someone off, but I'm just the same,
Never gave you a chance.
Now that's a chance that I'll never take.
Living in those days that hold me back
(They hold me back).
They hold me down.
I knew this wouldn't get me far.
Just away from you, full of myself
And I know
That there's something inside of me
That I can give.
That I can give to you.
That I can give to you.
It won't hold me down (again).
It won't take me down (again).
The blood's left on my hands,
And it's up to me to wash away.
(I'll live my words.)
9. Biting Tongue
Every time you point the blame,
I'm left to clean the mess.
With every single word that's said,
I'm left to clean the mess you're leaving.
You can have your power trip,
And you can call it truth.
No one cares, and no one hears you.
Bite your tongue,
You've said enough!
You're living for yourself.
Can't see the difference between.
This game we'll never win.
[x10]
10. Something Less
Last night I thought I heard, heard the sound of hope.
I never knew what to expect, but still I had a goal.
And last night something fazed me.
Today things seems so clear.
The wait. The weight. The listening.
And everything's so clear.
I guess it's something less than what I hoped for.
It turned out something less,
but you seemed so content.
I guess it's something less than what I hoped for.
It turned out something less,
but you seemed so content with what you have.
You're so content and all I want is (more)!
Now I think I'll never have,
And I'll never see, and I'll never know.
Don't set me back!
Make a way to break the fall.
I'm taking it from the start.
I'm taking...
Make a way to break the fall.
I'm taking it from the start.
Don't set me back.
(Don't set me back.)
[x3]
11. Never Fade
I think I'm losing. Is it too late for me?
I thought, I always thought I'd make it through.
I'm asking you why.
Is it too late for me?
Your answer's never clear, or maybe it's just me.
I never took the time.
It's something that I see now.
And I know that you tried, but something always held me back.
(Every time) something always held me back.
I can't say I'm proud.
No, I can't say I'm proud
You always seem to know.
Somehow I know you understand everything -- everything about me.
How could it even matter?
I wish I could say the same thing for myself.
The day is almost over, and I'm lost.
I lost another day.
Make a way.
I won't fade.
(I'll never fade.)
I'll never fade.
12. Without A Word
In an effort to win,
I lost it all.
At a standstill
How easily it's said
Now eat your words
Everything that I wanted to say.
It seemed to die.
It all seemed to die on my lips.
Another broken heart,
Another hit and miss.
And when nothing else is easy,
How easily it's said.
Now eat your words
Everything that I wanted to say.
It seemed to die.
It all seemed to die on my lips.
(Words so easy to be said.)
Harder I try, harder I fall.
(Words so easy to be said.)
Competition seems so useless
(Words so easy to be said)
With an ending all too predictable.
(Words so easy to be said.)
Once again I've lost it all.
13. Lorelei
You told me I'd better walk away.
Just like me to never hear what you say.
Tempting fate.
The story unfolds;
Should have seen it.
You told me I better walk away.
And just like me to never hear what you say.
Twisted fate.
The story is told;
Should have seen it.
(Never say never,) cause you don't know what lies ahead.
(Better to follow) your heart.
Mistakes comes with choices made.
Does it mean no damage done?
Not a chance in the world.
'Cause there was never a day that went by without regret.
(Turn it around!)
Now, turn it around.
The past's still haunting me.
I gotta give it, give it away.
(Never say never,) cause you don't know what lies ahead.
(Better to follow) your heart.
Mistakes comes with choices made.
From choices made.
I gotta give it, I gotta give it (away.)
I gotta give it, give it away.
(I made a choice for me.
Just one mistake and it's haunting.
I saw someone, never wanted to be.
The story told and it's haunting.)
