Is there something I should feel
Please convince me this is real
I was fast asleep before
I can handle
I wont cry I can handle
I wont crawl away from life
Right now I want to smoke until I"m high
Is there something I should know
Please convince me this is real
I wont stay asleep no more
I don't think I like this feeling
Never wanted to be sad
I don't get it
I don't want to feel this way
Cast out demons
End up sane

I wont be here
what about that my friend
I"ll be somewhere up on my mountain
I"ll climb
And I know that is what you want me to do
So I"ll start a fire in my head
Start a fire in my head
I'm already burning
Pretty soon we will all be like that
There's no need to blame it on yourself
Don't start crying
You want to dance
The wind never blows
I wont be here
what about that my friend
I"ll be somewhere up on my mountain
I"ll climb
And I know that is what you want me to do
Pretty soon we will all be like that

let you know
03:22
|

Just to let you know
I can close it try oppose it
but its just beginning
I can bend it try pretending
but its just beginning
I can fix it I"ll unjinx it
but I'm just beginning
I can aim for when I'm not bored
Just to let you know
I'm not trying to hide
This is not where I belong
Call me a fool
But I know I'm not wrong
Is this supposed to justify me
I know you all want me to get up and do something
But I'm not just lazy
I'm doing fine
Doing what I do
Takes time
Just to let you know

fence
02:33
|
|||
|
From the outside I'm watching you
Your world seems lonely
I'm lonely too
Seems like that fence you build wont keep me out
Seems like that dog you keep cant run me down
I"ll promise to be faithful
My world will be about
You

down that way
04:26
|

|
I was trying to be strong
didn't think that i would make it on my own
But I'm not weak
here I am and i believe
I wont go back down that way
I wont hide in that corner of my mind
I will stay with you tonight
Just don't make me take a side
Don't make me decide
Don't make me take it all
Just show me where to go
I still believe
I wont go back down that way
I wont hide in that corner of my mind
I will stay with you tonight
Time to find myself a mission
Don't make me take it all
Show me where to go
I still believe
and its time to let it show
wont go back down that way
I wont hide in that corner of my mind
I will stay with you tonight

perfect place
02:27
|

|
Are they selling it today
Why not give it all away
Ain't this a perfect place
Where no one hides and no one hurts
where no one has to fear
Where love is right and dreamers rule
and past wont disappear
Where all the dark and all the doom
and all that's bad ain't dear
Where all can find the answers to
the questions we ask here
Are they selling it today
Why not give it all away
Ain't this a perfect place

helpless without you
02:47

|
Why you're hiding how you feel
Why you're trying to let go
Please don't run away from me
I am helpless without you
Confuse me amaze me
Amuse don't replace me
Why you're hiding how you feel
Why you're so afraid to show
Please don't run away from me
I am helpless without you
Confuse me amaze me
Amuse don't replace me
Well I gave you all I'm about
and its hurting
Because I'm not sure what you're gonna do
How can I save myself from a lie
So stop hiding how you feel
Why you're trying to let go
Please don't run away from me
I am helpless without you

shine

Look for a way to shine
So many ways to rise
So many ways to fly
So many tears gone by
Look for a way to shine
I'm happy when you are
I'm happy when you shine
Long for a day to shine
So many ways to rise
So many tears gone by
See you like new
And all the while all of us fear
Break down this house and you will find
All the while Ive known
you can find me
look for a way to shine

I'm not the one to ring your bell

You don't want me here but you wont let me go
I can tell you now I wont play no more
I'm not the one to ring your bell
