Mean 04:20
If I could See the things you see Mournings, warnings It would Fill me with disease Sightings, frightening Find me Following in fear Knowing, showing Weary Straining just to hear Whisperings, are you listening?! Tell me, what you said Help me, understand Don’t tease me, just to please me Let me in your head Make me, understand Take my, innocence Don’t deceive me. Don’t release me Wake me up instead…. Let me in your head…. This can’t be the end….

Homecoming 03:59
Amidst the smell of beer and basset hound This fish has drowned in alcohol Cigarettes don't die they just burn out And I miss your mouth most of all Please think of me if you get the chance You taught me how to cry, how to lie So don't tell me that I taught you nothing at all I didn't drive ten miles to turn around And see you frowning at the door Anyway it doesn't matter now Because you're not around any more I just thought that you should know

Cover 01:36
I wore that shirt today Today it was mine, not yours It felt good Even though it’s ill-fitting, I’ve lost so much weight Can’t you see in my pictures Pictures I still post for you That I’m not right After all of this time, so much time I’ve been holding too long onto things that I Know are no longer of use Moving on puts the sting into winning ‘cause I always manage to lose I wore that shirt today Today it was mine, not yours It felt good Even though when it’s dirty, I’ll throw it away

Damned 04:45
Wash off the sin Brush off the shame Immaculate or filthy, you’re still the same Wash off the sin Brush off the pain You’ve been damned from the beginning What gives you the need? What’s left to prove? When will you ever find yourself?
5.
Silent signal, slightly slow Black on white, the TV glows Watching, waiting, weary-eyed Viewer discretion is ill advised Foreign figures, coming forth Piece by piece, a building force Victimizing, violent schemes Scanning through vicious scenes I can see it in my head I can feel it in my bones Nothing else consumes me Nothing else can sooth me Swallowing me whole Medicating, measuring Chemicals like Listerine Giving, grabbing, gesturing Existing in the nothing scene I can feel it in my head It’s pressing on my skull Nothing in between us No deceit or weakness So indestructible Penetrating, posturing Facing the adversity Reposessing, restraining Securing and positioning I’m straightening my head Taking back control Extracting confusion Caving into conclusion I’m riding out this storm

Hands Up! 04:39
Day in day out, it’s all the same New place, new time, new accident What are you waiting for? Pick yourself off the floor You already knew just what it meant Hands up! Hands up! Why do you give up? Just open your eyes And you might see Stand up! Stand up! You gotta stand up And reach for the prize This time, next time you always say I’ll get it right, just not today What are you waiting for? It’s right outside your door You already know just what it takes Everyone, everyone, everyone you care for Everyone, everyone, everyone you need Have seen it far too long And now they’re all but gone Everyone, everyone, everyone but me Reach for the sky!
