1-Faithfulness


Faithfulness
Distracts me from my ever changing
Tastefulness
My mouth upon the richest tongues
I run for this
Static at the same time by it all

Common sense
Can slap me in the face
And yet I calm disent
Embarrassed by your obvious
Indifference
Disgusted at the same time by it all
Watching as my ego breaks your fall

Don't you know that I've
Been running from you heart
And I feel like you've been running too


Don't you know that I've
Been lying from the start
And I feel like you've been lying too.

Leave you now
Can't convince myself
That you're the one somehow
To free me from this smile
I call my loneliness
Stuck inside this need to feel complete
Now I've left you standing on your feet

Don't you know that I've been
Running from you heart
And I feel like you've been running too
Don't you know that I've been
Lying from the start
And I feel like you've been
Lying too.

Faithfulness is just a little rule
We break
Still pretending lust was just a fool
We faked, we made




2-Trashed


I'm like a soldier
With no cause to fight
Playing with bar boys
To test you just right
I watch your features
I check for a sign
Of some kind of failure
Then I feel sublime
Now I know I have to live without you
I can only bend so far
Guess it's time to make some moves
Without you
Now you've gone and trashed my heart
Solid demeanor
I look good a feat
Still I'm too vicous
To take on defeat
Yes I hear
You don't feel this any more
I see
There's nothing to believe in anymore
Just two snitches on heat
Still avoiding the grief
Because it felt so hard





3-Don't let me down


You always say
I want too much
Is it such a crime
To want more than your lust
Oh baby
Why have you frozen now

I can't conceive
The way this feels

You've grown so cold
Like you're counting the tears
Oh, baby
Why have you frozen now

And you say it doesn't matter
We'll always be
The best of friends

Don't let me down x4

I've always said
I can't abuse
Your lust for life
And the choices you choose
Oh, baby
Why have we broken now

And you say it doesn't matter
We'll always be
The best of friends

Still i need you
To stay right here

Don't let me down x4

Ooh

Don't let me down x4





4-Listen to yourself


You're talking
In circles
The words spit out your head
They blind you
With emotion that's plain dead

These wet sheets
Sex sudden
Mind spent and I'll at ease
Your mirror
Screams out this dark release

Cos only you can be your help
So darling just listen
Listen to yourself

Cos only you can tame your hell
So darling just listen
Listen to yourself

You know truth
But deny it
Too scared to make a break
Pure feeling
Just squandered in your wake

Don't tell me
Your virtues
Then run the same lame strife
To tiring
These excerpts of your life

Cos only you can be your help
So darling just listen
Listen to yourself

Cos only you can tame your hell
So darling just listen
Listen to yourself





5-Lost


What was I waiting for
Waiting for the bubble to burst
Over your stagnant pauses
Can't cure what your devil don't see
Or light a fire below the death of me
We've shot through all over our causes
Days spin through my heart
That sever the love
Kill all the pain with shame
I won't be lost without you
I've found a way to get through
Now I'm up and running
Strong enough to walk away
And leave you all alone
I won't be lost
What were you waiting for
Waiting for the straw to break
Over the back of desperate ways
You were a dream to me
Now you're nothing but a heart
That bleeds
I'll wash you off and carry on
(Repeat bridge and chorus)
And when I see you
I find another reason
To keep myself from getting lost in you





6-Trouble with me


Can't see you through your blinding words
Eyes burning through the lies you stutter
Can't breathe in case I take them in
Then I'd lose my mind

I believe that you believe in you
Still reeling from the words you uttered
Feel sick enough to let you win
Recognising

The trouble with me
Is my troubles with you
Sometimes you make me feel
Like I'm everybody's fool

The trouble with me
Is my troubles with you
You'd like me to believe
I need no one but you

I stumble from your juiced up promises
Can't believe what I forgave in you
Too scared by what you think I'm living for
So distorted

Stupid me I should have listened
To you anyway
Between the line I would have
Heard the truth
So slick you coulda lied to anyone
Now I see that

You can run
You can run away
But I can run too
Far enough to see

You can run
You can run today
But I can run too
Far enough to see the wrong in you






7-I'll try


I don't understand nothing less
Than this bitter release
You standing firm but won't talk to me
Makes it harder to hold on

But I'll try
I'll try
I'll try
Tell me how you feel and I'll try

I don't know what you want from this
Don't know nothing at all
Just this vision that I can't leave
Makes it harder to go on

Tell me how you feel and I'll try

We'll fight this regret
And smother the doubt
We'll conquer this

We'll conquer regret
And smother the doubt





8-You've made your bed


I'm a one night stand
Screwed the whole damn year
Cos your sneaky face
Comes streaked with tears

But I'm not joyful lover
I tell no lies
So you won't just get away with it
Without a fight

Now it's my turn to tell you

You can't keep turning to me
When she ain't coming home
You can't keep flirting with me
You've made your bed
Go lie in it alone

I'm the rotten cause
That keeps true girls down
Cause these tears of a heart
Will have us all drowned

But I'm no willing cover
I seek no praise
So you won't be getting away with it
On sorry days

I'm your contraband
Your smugglers whore
I collude with you
When you want more

But it's clear to me
You thrive on my fear
So it's time to aid the enemy
And get the hell out of here





9-As long as that's true


Tell me this fight
Was just a cause
That we will die
With there flaws
I know it's meaningless
But that is what we all face
As long as that's true
I can get over you
Tell me you used me to climb
Above us poor souls (standing) in line
For me a lot of pain
Is what I need to pull me through
Wanna feel this hatred
Its what I need to drag me through this
I survive through nothing less
It tears me up as you calmly use it
Love abuse is just a test
Then sad old love songs
Stick the knife in deeper everyday
Twisting as you play
Tell me your reasons
Werent pure
So I can kill
This wretched lust for you
Some damage done
Is what I need to go alone
As long as that's true
I can get over you




10-Burnt like you


You'll always be a born
Worn out loser
Still blaming all of us
For your bad choosing

No I can't watch the same mistake
Waiting for the boys to turn out straight
No I can't run the same dog race
And get burnt like you

You're swollen in the gut
From all those last nights
Still swinging vodka punches
That don't land right




11-'Til morning


Take these sore eyes
I've no use for them
Now I feel there's
Nothing left to see

Take your moment
It's not important
It's destined for my
Fading memory

Ma baby

'Til then sleep so completely
So discreetly
In my arms
'Til then lie
So convincingly
And I'll stay here
'Til the morning comes

Take your satisfaction
If it makes it worth it
And take your little tricks
When you leave

Oeh...

Ma baby

'Til then sleep so completely
So discreetly
In my arms
Till then lie
So convincingly
And I'll stay here
Till the morning comes
