while you cryin out yer eyes you barely made it through the flight now you're saddled and you know you're not that bright so you won't shine again who's on your side eating prednisone who's on your side? and all your insides down yet burn up in flames why would i lie? alright, we're never going back to where you hang around again who's on your side who's on your side? now all the fumes fall down there weight it fills your eyes again it always wins, alright? he's never coming back to sleep in your bed again who's on your side who's on your side if you learn to hide? now, who's on your side who's on your side when you have to hide?

i wish i could find a way to ease your mind but heal my pain you sit there watching cartoons that joke just like my salty wounds but we're not, no, but we're not that cold i wish i could take a day and say the things i want to say it's a game the young can play and i don't feel that old anyway but we're not, no, but we're not that cold I never knew all the things that I thought you would say to me say to me say to me say to me I never knew all the things that I thought you would say to me say to me say to me say to me I never knew (never knew) all the things that I thought you would say to me say to me say to me say to me i wish i could find a way to ease your mind but heal my pain you sit there watching cartoons they joke just like my salted wounds but we're not, no, but we're not that cold

we are the dead we're the damned the damaged despised and unwilling to sacrifice what we've lost is our cost for living and our ear for reprimand you have no faith in my holy war i can see you through a hole in the wall yes we are on the losing side i can't sell your guilty treasures anymore

i never said i was the kind of man to wish you a happy anniversary maybe one day our paths will cross again but then again probably not i wish that we had never exchanged our vows it'd make everything so much easier now

it's something bigger than you thought, see a gleam or two in your eye tastes just like the flu, but it's cool as lyme making up for the lost time when she wants to crawl: celery stalks on the cutting board life from the view of the cutting room floor somethin' changed inside your mind did you think you'd be better off this time? til somethin' changed inside your mind i'm still trying to remember why
7.
you sentimental fool, we meet again tell me what you're thinking you played me once before, you win again where did i go wrong, now? all i want is some peace of mind but all i get is a little tired my precious phantom be lost to where they want you i'd like to take you home whenever you want to approximately never all you are is a little fire and all we get is a little closer my precious phantom no one's gonna harm you

i'm trying to forgive myself i never thought i'd still be alive i'm trying to forgive myself i never thought i'd still be alive it never turns out the way it was meant to be it never does and i feel so denied It's been a long voyage so i'm only gonna say this once i'm not meant for this world clearly not made for your touch three years is a long time, but longer if you're not alive three years is a long time, but longer if you're not alive i'm not going back to canada i'm not going back to the way i used to be depression struck a permanent angle on me couldn't you tell her? couldn't you tell her? i'm trying to forgive myself i never thought i'd still be alive i'm trying to forgive myself i never thought i'd still be alive
