Taproot Album

Well i hear a voice of faith
resonate a belief in chioce with no way to escape
it's a ploy to weaken the sense of joy and bury us
seperates the good of evil
placing shame on helpless people
stabbing hate infectious needle shallow forces spreading seeds will
feed the flame of ignorance takes away our freedom to say

i will not fall for you
no

well i see a fingers' point
but not that use ostracizing noise with a narrowed view
its okay the rest of us heal the pain now we're free to say

i will not fall for you

seperate yourself from all the hating people who want to take you down say

i will, i will not, fall for you
i will not fall for you

Standing on a land unknown interpreting the same
believing in a chance of hope and see it slowly fade
its breaking far away replacing what im made of

looking for a way to show that im
searching for a faith who knows that im
screaming for a place to go

(chorus)
cause im drowning in the vioent seas
of being force fed societies
shallow end of misery please take me away cause i cant stay
looking for a way to show that im okay
screaming for a place like home

treading in the fears i own of ending up ashamed
while cornered in this life and prone by overbearing waves
that steal what i have saved replacing what i gave up

looking for a way to show that im
searching for a faith who knows that im
screaming for a place to go

(chorus)

away, far away

All you'd show is love
Yet all I'd see is hate
You know that something's wrong
I know I can't relate
Wind is blowing pleasure by
And I don't feel a thing
Emotion fills the sky
Erosion clouds my brain

I can't seem to breathe in
I can't seem to see then through the deafening silence of pain left all alone again)

Imprisoned by this selfish reign (with no more rules to bend)

I think I'm breaking down

And if I had just one more day
I'd tell you everything, everything I had to say
I miss you
And if I had just one more day
I'd show you one last thing, honesty believes in fate
And fate is what I've gained

Strength has come and gone
So now I lie in wait
The void is never long
The core belief in fate
I've been down this lonely road
Before I know the way
As situations change the answers will remain

Now I've got a reason as time has brought new seasons to carry me from this pain

Living proof of selfless gain
Fate is what I've gained
I've been down this road, the answers' still the same

I've been waiting for you
To show you faces of gloom
Living disgrace, my eyes are burned
and my ears are tired tired of all these..

SCREAMS
SCREAMS

So I run, the truth is falling.
You're the one, sent to kill me.

Several days in no mood.
Since there's no way to ellude.
What can I say? my skin's a lie.
And my heart is broke from all these..

LIES
WHY

So I run, the truth is falling.
You're the one, sent to kill me.
Yet so wrong, the death is haunting.
Now I'm gone, self inflicting.

*insert Jarrod action here*
*Jarrod screams*
*harmonizing guitars*

SO I
Run, the truth is falling.
You're the one, sent to kill me.
Yet so wrong, the death is haunting.
Now I'm gone, self inflicting

Your face is burned inside my brain
I lost my way
Your taste of stale flows through my veins
The cost of hate
‘Cause you’ll never understand me
You want me to stay

You’re c-c-c-calling but I can’t hear you
I’m not listening anymore
You’re subject to falling but I can’t save you
I don’t see you anymore

The race of slowing down the pain, I found a way
The pace of speaking so mundane, the sound of gain
But you’ll never make me happy
So I’ve extinguished the flame

You’re c-c-c-calling, but I cant hear you
I’m not listening anymore
You’re subject to falling, but I can’t save you
I don’t see you anymore

And what you want me to say I’ll never say
You’re playing the game that I’ll never play
So what do you want from me?
Now I’ve extinguished the flame

Your c-c-c-calling but I can’t hear you
I’m not listening anymore
You’re subject to falling but I can’t save you
I don’t see you anymore
You’re c-c-c-calling but I can’t hear you, I’m not listening anymore
You’re f-f-f-falling, but I can’t save you
I don’t see you anymore

It seems its been so long cause its been way too long
since we've shared a warm embrace and since ive seen you smile

the wind of misery appears
and takes away from all we have
the cycle just goes on and on and on and on

(chorus)
cause only time will tell if we're meant to be
you and i will know if its our destiny
forever endeavor

i am alone again cause i am alone again
the choice we have to face is whether to move on
the urge to right our wrongs but no fix is long

the wind of misery appears
the cycle just goes on

(chorus)

How could you abandon me i thought you'd always be
there for me standing tall one and one for all
my support moleding rolling as a team
but instead on our own enemies of old

as seasons change the fallen rain will wash the pain away
make amends to help understand how to live to today

its not your fault i understand now im more a man
you needed space to find yourself and im in the same place now
liveing dreams dreaming new spring forward to
choose a life to get me by not a life the passes by

on we march in our april suits
on we march in our april boots

as seasons change the fallen rain will wash the pain away
make amends to help understand how to live to today

Tonight im freakin out again
tonight im thinkin so low
all i wanted was a friend and all ive got is no one
tonight ill sleep alone and i wont sleep at all
my heart isnt alive

right now im sinking further down
right now im breaking inside
a long drive just to see you lie in bed
a long ride wishing for your life
tonoght ill stay with you and ill get us through

my heart ripped from my chest
too late i hope not for this
my heart isnt alive

nausesous preparing for the worst
cautious repairing open wounds
yet somehow believing in a chance
itll turn out to be another test
and you'll comeback again

my arms carry the weight
two hands folded yet straight
my arms closed in a prayer for you

you're lost in the woods they say to me

It breeds a one man show mentally self serving force fed and condoned
it takes my breath away to know that no one else believes they're in control

(save us) from ourselves
we're at a loss of words while preaching that we cant be heard
the image staring back at you is what you hate (you don't)
truly think forgiveness is on the way
seven years you lost for breaking one mistake (ingrown x2)

to bleed for what own is undstanding as the sum for what you've blown but truly carve your way to where you want to go is smiling while alone

wake up, play dumb, wake up

She gets everything she wants but nothing that she needs
no respect for what things cost or who she wants to be
just neglect for whats been lost cause nothing is free

how can we let her get away with being this way
we've been shattered by her cant you she she has to pay

in her shadow i reside
i scream but no one's listening
would anyone know if i died
im sick of no one seeing im alive

she has everything i want but nothing that i need
nothing earned like what ive got gets everything she sees
lives the life that i cannot cause nothing is for free

how can we let her get away with being this way
we've been shattered by her cant you she she has to pay

in her shadow i reside
i scream but no one's listening
would anyone know if i died
im sick of no one seeing im alive

in her shadow i decide i wont stay longer
in a place with silent hate inside the chioce is violence towards her in disguise

Tonight's the night in your arms again
Be the one to make me whole and then
Say whatever you have to say to me on and honestly

[chorus]
Every single thought of you amazes me
So I'll promise you, I'll promise you to me
(every single time that you've forgiven me)

To find the one with your heart and stem
Freed and mine much more than the rest of them
Seed the chance to grow and be with me
The way I know and see

chorus

There you are in my thoughts again
Fearing all we have is dead
Taken time as the best of friend
Please don't let me down again

chorus

You painted offense while you plead defense
you tooke advance of average
you pleased those deceived but couldnt ern me
my god wouldnt use his leverage

if faith had an 800 number
id disconnect myself
if i had to be a member
id rather be left out

you fell for those lies while they took your mind
your eyes were closed from the inside
your heart was so full of infomercial you couldnt hear the blind talking

if faith had an 800 number
id disconnect myself
if i had to be a member
id rather be left out

stay away from me

So you want more affection to add to your distraction?
the snow it bleeds a sky so grey today
of memories what's lost not gained pretty
reliving awful yesterdays

we cant see the other side
we forget obstructed views cant see blue skies

no longer blind
paint a portait to be seen of hopes and dreams
stain the canvas carelessly (our enemies)

so you plead for attention to add to this dimension's ascension
the stroke of time just hides the safe to reign
the choke of loss despise our taste
and our souls honest side which leaves us just to be our own diguise

no longer blind
paint a portait to be seen of hopes and dreams
stain the canvas carelessly (our enemies)

take the present as a gift reversal
make the message of what's left
