1.
Well I don’t imagine, that you’d feel the same Through the guilt and the blame, as I do Cause it’s always the same scene When I hit the ground, come crashing down, And I say Who will you run to when you’re lost Who will you run to when you’re broken down Who will you love when you find That you’re nothing more, than you were before So I can’t pretend now that, it’s all ok That I’m on my way, back to you Cause you’ll play out the same scene, when they close all the doors I’m conveniently yours, And you’ll say So who do you love
2.
True 03:20
My world crashes Around you Cause you’ll take me Forsake me, that’s true And I can’t face it Around you Cause I’m standing Crash landing, that’s true
3.
There’s a reason, that I am blind And I can’t see through the dark Cause hope and kindness, better days Well they feel miles apart Cause I have fallen Down this road, so deep That you won’t believe When I say this is me Oh, this is me There’s a reason, I am tired And I can’t run anymore Cause we hurt each other, all again But I am done keeping score So take your ribbons Hide your bows Cause now is not the time To ask forgiveness, make amends For all the faults in our lives
4.
Remember Me 04:01
She walks, valiantly Across the road, unconditionally She packed her bags, quietly And left a note saying, remember me Cause she wants a new life And her way to say goodbye, is remember me She remembers well, the slavery To broken hearts, and shattered dreams So no goodbyes, to concede Just a note saying, remember me Her room is dark, and empty Just a note saying…
5.
On My Mind 04:06
All my life, where have you gone Cause you’re on my mind Was happiness left behind Cause we were something, never meant to last And I’m thinking about that summer, that never should have passed And I still feel the sun (but those days are gone) And I still hear your voice On my mind So half my life Has come and gone I guess I lied, to myself So all my life, where have you gone
6.
It’s getting harder to pay For these faults, that follow me I feel trapped inside The walls of my history See time has no regard Or remedy I’ve been left behind to find What I’ll never be But who will save me, from myself Who will save me Cause it won’t be me Getting farther away From where I thought I’d be And the road I’m walking on Is a mystery
7.
She is Lost 03:53
She lies awake, alone at night Cause the pain that shes knows has another name She lies awake alone at night Waiting for the sun’s first light Cause the pain that she knows has another name It is lost She is lost Her mind spins out of control From fears deep within her soul And the cuts along her arm have another name And she wants out, of this life In the dark she is lost, and can’t find a better way He is gone, and she can’t find the strength for another day Through the years drowned her fears in pills and promises Though she tries to forget, the regrets are harrowing
8.
Without You (free) 04:24
I can’t erase The lines along this tired face, or you Cause we’ve gone our separate ways And I am left to count the days, without you Cause every fall The changing leaves they say it all, it’s true They change just like you So what am I to say To ease the cost that I have paid, without you Lessons I refused to learn And my heart will always burn for you And time goes Weather or not you know Time goes, its true Slowly without you
