Back Away

well I've emptied my glass
which was never half full
your lyin' eyes drained me, baby
but I wouldn't let it show
I bottled it all up, and then I drank it all down
these lucid dreams were never real when you're not around
I had two girls yellin' at me
lucy, molly, breathin' down my neck
and when I tried to forget their faces
I had scratches all down my back
if doubt proceeds what you see bleed
then back away baby
'cause we were never meant to be
with lust in your eyes
and fear in your heart
determined for sorrow
right from the start

Huffin' Danger
03:55
|

|
when my mind gets clouded
you know it's real (x2)
'cause all my fate
I steal.
it's all mine, it's all mine
now I've abandoned my ambition
just to break from the madness
but in your red power
I can't find no safe nets
or positive place
but you know me, I'm just letting it be
here am I, huffin' danger
my blissful times are
my ignorant times and
my courageous times are
my blind times
I don't need you
you don't need me
but we've got ourselves tangled in each other
now we're all confused
and I don't know you
but I'd break my needs all for you
yes it's true
that you give me that taste of freedom
here am I, huffin' danger

I Don't Know Why
03:37
|
|

I don't know why
the reason that I left you behind
I don't know my thought patterns
of this crime
but I'll stay here
just a little while
I don't know why
the reasons behind those lies
I won't tell myself one reason, baby
until I die
but I'll stay here
just a little while
well I led myself
to believe I can
feel your breath on the back of my neck
for just once, at all
won't you believe in something?
like how you coming with me
when you're already gone?
well you want to know the reason
why I left you behind?
it's cause I seen my future plans
dividing you and I
I can not share the low-life scene
that I soon see in my head
how you saying don't say or sing how dare 'cause
I'm alone, you know
this home's no home at all
I don't know why
the reason that I left you behind
I won't tell myself one reason baby
I don't know why
but I'll stay here
just a little while

Runnin' Wild

oh come my way baby
and I'll give my warning
if you want my heart
well I guess I've gotta show it
I know that I can be
so solid at times
but that's not my fault
these walls were built so tight
oh come my way baby
and I'll slip away
I ain't no time
all I got is today
but somehow all my plans
keep slippin' through my hands
and I can't find where I first did stand
I'm sorry if sometimes
I made you feel like a child
but that's not my fault
baby I've been Runnin' Wild
I get so scared of my mind sometimes
but what am I to do?
it just runs all the time
I think of my walls
I think of my walls
and why they were built at all
I'm sorry if sometimes
I made you feel like a child
but that's not my fault
baby I've been Runnin' Wild

Time Again
04:56

do well with what may not be
if happiness may hold the key
time into Time Again
look out for time next time my friend
but oh, set your little soul into flight
love next time be not polite
face to face with the woman in the room
light's out... but not too soon
everything you wanna see, exactly what you wanna be
everything you wanna see, exactly what we're gonna be
(x2)
be little just a little bit
unless you think that's not yo' trip, ohh
humble men may not proceed
unless you do that nasty deed
but oh, set you up into the fire
into your soul in her desire
looking out but not far in
and soon you'll know it's time again
time again but not like before
all the people you adore
seem to me to be off runnin' wild
face to face back to begin
times will change but once again
hopefully all you'll be there once more
all the things you want come true
so there's nothing left for you to do
seems to me there's something else for you
now hurt me

Wake Me Up
04:57
|
|
||
|
wake me up if I sleep too long
'cause I might be dead
judging from last night
the heart that's broken inside
I might not be
recovering
no recovery
so just give me a shiver
if you could be so kind
I'm just asking you to deliver
one of your chills up & down my spine
now this girls coming & I might stumble
then I might find myself in a little trouble
but I know I will hold my own
yes I know I am going home
walk right through the house
and lock all my doors
shutting myself off from your fucking world
but I know I'm losing track
I'll find my way back to you
don't wake me up
'cause I'm already dead
I know that it's quiet
and I don't even like it when it's quiet
'cause I know that I won't get excited
so I, just go, find a corner
just wishing that I had some more
but you know I can't do it myself,
I'm gonna need you or somebody's help
c'mon, just give me a hand
help me through this dying land
don't wake me up
'cause I'm already dead
