- Beginnings
Come little boy, this a war, it's you versus the world
You'll battle with pencils and papers and words
You'll sing about how love comes first, second and third
And people will feel so alive that it hurts
And when pretty young girls stand in line for the show
There's that serpentlike temptress in the back of the row
She makes the blood flow through your heroin veins
- No More
I don't know if the lyrics are correct,
I've heard them out
Once again,
fall into everything you have in mind,
Once again,
I feel this way,
I will never play this game
- Still Here Breathing
The deal goes down out back with the cash up front
When this city's falling asleep I won't
Tonight I will drown all sorrow
Reality left but it feels so right
Awkward steps towards the light
The story repeats tomorrow
- The Chains
I don't need something, I need someone,
flowing through my veins, to take away the pain
Those words stop at my skin, I am not afraid
I'm sick of getting hurt, I'm through with this charade
(Chorus)
Break me down, set me free
Break apart the chains ensnaring me
- The End
I never claimed to know the road ahead
But did you ever listen to a single word I said?
No, you were busy fighting all those ghosts in your head
A cold breath of wind from misery's tired wings
Put a big bird in a small cage and see what kind of song he sings
(Chorus)
