Cities Drowning
It's just the same, same beginning again, I can't help but think back when, you stole my heart, it was alright, now it's not the same, no not the same
We could stay here, we could get so comfortable, but I didn't want this, I didn't wish this, I didn't want this for all
So what are we, what are we expected of, when you're down the whole things off, in your little head, when you're up there, you can't hear us, screaming, screaming
Take it back now
And we could loose all meaning, we could, keep on screaming, but time won't tell us, time should take us where we wanna be
Cause this city's drowning, in your sins and lying
I hope you play this over
Maybe you won't feel so bad
Hope you play, hope you play, replay this all over
I hope you play this over
Time will take us, take us where we wanna be
Liar
Tell me what's behind that smile, you think you can raise the bar a little higher, and you can keep on pushing but I'm not moving
So if you take a minute now, just sit right down and listen to me, I can tell you one or more things that are really missing from you
You're a joke, you're a fake, a liar
So turn it off, it's getting just a little too loud; you throw it out, thinking everyone will come around
You think we don't know, but we know oh yeah
If you take a minute now, just sit right down and listen to me, I can tell you one or more things that are really missing from you
You're a joke, you're a fake, a liar
You're lying, stop pretending, it's not who you are, you're the same, and I'm falling, you're not going anywhere
You're lying, stop pretending, it's not who you are, you're the same, so just stay, and let's see who'll listen to you
(you're the same yeah
what's behind, what's behind that smile, you think you can raise the bar a little higher, oh no)
Your Own Way
When you die, that's when you'll start sleeping, but what I'm seeing I'm not believing, you're wasting away, in a haze of white
And the other's telling me so many lies, like he's seen it all through poor persons
I don't think you can remember
Are you hearing again, what I'm hearing again, over over
Let's just talk about you, let's just talk about you again, never never.
You wanna take it away, but this is what we started with, this is what we're dreaming of, every every day
You think we don't wanna play, but there's no compromise, don't follow your goddamn rules, there's no room to choose
You're playing the same, yeah you're playing the same song again, over over
Let's talk about you, let's just talk about you again, never never
Never have I wanted to change things just like you wanted to change this
The next page isn't yours, we're fighting for a different cause and
You ain't got, you ain't got no place to stay, with bad promises bad promises
You ain't got, you ain't gonna have your own way again
And there's plenty of confusion, with your heavy contradictions, so let me have the last word here, can you hear me now
Can you hear me now?
And inside and outside, I still hear you I still hear you
When you say what's 'right', I don't hear you, I don't hear you
We only get one chance to make this right
And there's no room for you anymore
You wanna give it away, well we're not showing
We'll keep it a mystery and keep on going
They say two minds are better than one, well no dear, no not here
We'll keep it a mystery and keep on going
