Face to Face Album

there was a hint of danger
they told him it's ok
there was a chance of failure
they told him it's alright
a false security driven by
a weakened state of mind
it's calling and calling

he had a big decision
they told him it's ok
bound by his inhibitions
they told him it's alright
time for reality
time to gain control of his own life
it's calling and calling

do you know what is wrong?
try to keep it in line
you can't go back (can't go back)
there must be something

he tried
once was not enough
they told him it's alright
he tried
wasn't good enough
that doesn't make it right

try not to try
try not to care
it's really easy once you learn that no one is listening
try not to care
try not to hear
you'll do much better for yourself
cause nothing else matters

i know you well by now
i know you well by now
i know you well by now
you're that good person
i know you well by now
i know you well by now
i know you well by now
you're that good person

don't be afraid
don't be naive
you think you're better than me
well you're sadly mistaken

i know you well by now
i know you well by now
i know you well by now
you're that good person
i know you well by now
i know you well by now
i know you well by now
you're that good person

it's all the same
inside our minds
everything is justified
what is wrong and what is right
everything is justified

ty not to try
try not to care
it's really easy once you learn
that no one is listening

i know you well by now
i know you well by now

you're that good person

you disgust me

someone tell me that I'm wrong
someone tell me that I'm right
someone tell me where I'm going

I guess it's safe to say
I don't know what I want
but I can't wait forever
it isn't difficult at all
I don't know what I want
but I can't wait forever
it isn't difficult at all

it makes no sense to me

someone tell me that it's black
someone tell me that it's white
someone tell me that it's going to make a difference

I don't know what I want
but I can't wait forever
it isn't difficult at all
it makes no sense to me

If you think that I'm invincible
It's going to pull me down
If you think that I'm invisible
It's going to pull me down
It's somewhere I don't want to go
It's ok

If you think I'm indestructible
It's going to pull me down
if you think that I'm a miracle
It's going to pull me down
To somewhere I don't want to go
It's ok

I don't know what you want from me
But it's probably already gone
I don't care what you think of me


Your opinion means nothing at all

Don't say I'm ok
I'm not ok

Don't say I'm not trying
Trying to do what's right
Now it's time to walk away

I don't know what you want from me
But it's probably already gone
I don't care what you think of me
Your opinion means nothing at all

Don't say I'm ok
I'm not ok

There's nothing herer
Inside of these walls
I feel like I am so far away
Nothing's changed
And I just can't be who I'm supposed to be
I let the past control my life
It brings me to my knees
And I can not hide
I can not lie

So many words to say and no one to hear
Why did you go away?
I needed you more to day than I ever did
You lied to me

Outside it's cold
It chills to the bone
I wish that I did not have to see
I let the past control my life
It brings me to my knees
And I can not hide
I can not lie

So many words to say and no one to hear
Why did you go away?
I needed you more today than I ever did
You lied to me

what's the matter with my view?
is it something less than you think it should be?
what's the matter with the truth?
is there any of it left for us to see?

that's not the way it is supposed to be
that's not the meaning of equality

I don't want promises
I don't want condescending words from you

you can do most anything
as long as it's exactly how I say
opportunity is free
just make sure that you have enough to pay

so go on turn and walk away
I guess there's nothing left to say
I won't make the same mistakes
can't have it any other way

I see no honesty in promises you make
we've been too tolerant and something has to change

big lies
surprise
you've thought of everything
it builds your character you know
no way
ok
so what's the price you pay?
too late to realize you're broke

do you think that everything worked out?
it's good to see you've finally made it
can't you see you're lying to yourself?

but this was all your choice
do you think it makes a difference now?
but this was all your choice
it's good to see it hasn't changed you

you've tried
denied
can't win at everything
it's building character you know
don't wait
too late
you've got a choice to make
it's time to do what you've been told

aren't you glad that everything worked out?
it's good to see you've finally made it
can't you see you're lying to yourself?

You think you're over with it
Don't want to talk about it
I'll tell you something
You don't want to know

So what's the problem with my life?
Don't over complicate it
Let's stop with all this wasting time
I feel you all around
There's nothing else that I can see
Anything is better than nothing

I'll try and try
I won't be denied
I want my chance
I want what's mine

Tell me something
That I don't already know
Tell me how you plan to change the world
I'm tired of people trying
To tell me what is right
I'm tired of people trying to pull me down

I know that you might never understand
The way I feel
I made a promise to myself
That I would never let it show
Never look down
Never look down
Just keep my focus straight ahead
And try to walk this line
Never look down
Never look down
Just keep my focus straight ahead
And try to walk this line

Tell me all about your favorite human being
Tell me everything about yourself
God, the story is so terribly interesting
I wonder what's so good about myself

I know that you might never understand
The way I feel
I made a promise to myself
That I would never let it show
Never look down
Never look down
Just keep my focus straight ahead
And try to walk this line
Never look down
Never look down
Just keep my focus straight ahead
And try to walk this line

So let me take a good look at your perfect life
So I know exactly how I don't want mine

Yeeeeeeeee-ah
Everyday I see these
Same four walls that keep me here
And I want to change the things that hurt
I want to end this constant fear
So i say (yee-aaah)
Never look down
Never look down
Never look down
Never look down
Never look down
Never look down
(till end)

I don't owe you anything

what now?
not again
you're a person I will never comprehend
I've listened
I've tried
I can't change enough
to make you change your mind

I don't owe you anything

I don't know where I belong
all I know is that I'm wrong
I can't wait another day
make it all just go away
I don't want it today

I don't want to be late
if you knew what I knew
you wouldn't be willing to wait
don't be fooled by what you read
it's not the same as what you see
you're trying to sell me
and it's something for nothing
I don't want to be late

You don't know a thing about me
Is there something that you should know?
I can tell you what you want to hear
Let your inhibitions just go

No you don't know what you will give up
You don't know what you want
It may take you years to find out
You don't know what you need
It's something that may never come to you

Trust is something that comes easy
Whan you've never been a victim
Lies and promises and words are said
It's you're decision to accept them

running out of time again
where did you go wrong this time?
when your problems overwhelm you
go get drunk it's party time
take a quaalude, relax your mind
relax your body too!
run from problems but
you'll never get away
no one loves you, and you
wonder why?
sitting there with your mouth full of beer
your eyes are glazed, your face is red
who's gonna pick you up and use you for tonight?
and when you're on the streets
with a needle in your arm
selling your body for another fix
who's gonna pick you up and take you home with them tonight
not me!
running out of breath again you're an Old Maid,
but you're only 15
you're losing your little girl's charm
cry all night but you'll never get it back
don't be afraid, it's not too late
save yourself, I need you here
wearing off, wearing out
I can't think about this cause it makes me sick.
