Hello pretty, I wish and hope you have a lovely day Just be the child you are don’t care bout nothing in this world Cause that will come someday Just show me to forget the mess of life And teach me how to love again i swear If anyone should take away my sunshine Than this old heart could never be repaired Watch me go boom boom Come out and follow And shoot shoot Take me away We all boom boom Just for the fun Until they boom our holiday Boom Boom Run for the troubles Shoot Shoot Run from the pain Boom Boom Run for the shadow But don’t you run my way Did our hearts, turn over Or was this just how it should be Pen and paper Never tell a lie ya don’t you know We all have rights but in the end your still sitting in the lights In your big boy office chair Ya they don’t really care if you should follow And they don’t really care if you agree We pay em good money for there thoughts and opinions While on there turf it is a shooting spree Did my heart, turn over Or was this just how it should be Can i call, me dead yet They gave that life, you’ve taken Boom boom, run for the shadows Shoo shoot, take them away This is pain, that won’t leave me Boom boom, run for the cover Shoot shoot, take love away

Torn into bits, lost all its pride The feelings caught up with the waves of the tide Knees deep in debt, ceilings so high Lost all his days to something not, something not right Bright lights ahead, the shadows are dimmed Blood on his hands from soaking in sin The corpse will await, till rotten and cold And when that time comes he’ll smack the world straight in its face No matter what time or what day Because every things feelings alright Because every things feeling okay No matter what time or what day Because everything is everything is great Because everybody wants it to stay When times are tough we should think of a way There is beauty in every mistake When times are tough we should look up and say The worse is death the worse is here to stay Now try to follow what it is you say Feeling like there is no other way

Months old I loved you just the same I wished you the most I wished you the most that love could ever bring And when it came to years old I met your personality Happy I hope Happy I know I was with you and me And now I look back and I think of how much you make me, me I hope you fly with no weight on the world I hope you try to stay true to your word I hope you learn to give love and return I wish you the best In everything you test I wish you well And when you were a Young child we had our ups and downs Excited to see Excited to see what your capable of When it came to teen years I let you experiment To try different things I hope you had seen my side of the argument But when I look back I think of the good times we had shared Aint nothing much better than that And thats a matter of fact When I look back I could not have imagined your soul And now your my world I hope you fly like the wind cross the sea I hope you still feel loved in your sleep I hope you care but can learn to disagree i wish you well in everything you dwell Ill wish you best I wish you well

Hot stopped too many times and now everything is over We stopped to long to tell that we just needed the closure I stopped so many times Heart throb too many rhymes See your soul your own your life as an expedite Hard wire search as minds combine the lies Neat discrete down to the meat and bones of this But in a way we struggle less Right down to stressless rest We lost so many times that I can’t believe its over We ached so many days that it just kept getting slower Attack Attack or die Attack Attack or die We’ve stopped so many dreams that its hard to not, Just wonder why Just wonder why Just wonder Lost it inside We lost it inside But its not over There staring at you with deep and loaded guns There staring at you for what you have become There staring at you without leaving a trace Its a hard an empty place When there careless as a clue Now Now Now Now Now Now don’t you feel sad? Now don’t you feel bad? Its not hard, it was your fault Stripping you of what cannot be bought Hearts stopped and lungs were dropped and now everything is over Bright lights and ocean tides and now talk about the closure You stopped so many times You’ve got too many crimes Life stops and hearts will drop when they hear that you are over

Step In 04:56
Lets stop I wishya never coulda ever let me into this world Somebody better hear this fight Somebody better listen to this Lets stop If you should ever than I’ll never let you in here again Somebody better make this right Somebody better help me out so So step in But I don't wanna if I gotta so you better just Step in Okay Now that I have your undivided definition of sight Somebody better make this right They better try to find a reason why Step in Is somebody really ever going to help this thing out? Step In I wanna know how to raise ya To the highest highs, and the lowest of the lows I wanna know how to meet ya And who you really are, cause I don’t know anymore And even if I could teachya There’d be much much more to this underlying scheme I wanna know how to reach ya Cause I don’t know how, and I’m ready to give in You better step right in Shout loud Can anybody really hear what you are trying to Shout loud Is anybody really listening to what you can say Lets stop I wish you never would have ever brought me into this place Lets stop Why did you never really ever teach me how to erase Step in what is it that I did so bad to you when you were so young Step in Honey I know life’s hard, but this is just the start It may just be a test Finding something in yourself to make you better than the rest We all like to impress We all like to impress But can’t you feel the stress On my hands, I tried aimlessly Because your all to fine to see the line that was blurred so long ago Can you find the time that you would rhyme and play baby, I just want you to feel home I just want you to feel home I just want you to feel warmth on my hands Its time I step in

East side dreamers they know just how to live it But the south side people will show that they cant have it In the north side cities, the air is smelling runny And the west coast cities don't care they got there money and theres someone screaming out bomb da bomb Air it on the news that things are all wrong and wrong Air it on the whole damn world, in this hell called home Where its wrong to fight, yet they cant come home But we keep on dreaming, and keeping onna trying When there's folks on crack, and kids screaming and crying And this worlds gone wack, through the eyes of all that curse it its just messed up now, but were hanging till it worsens And if you dont see or understand what i just said You need to smell fresh air, and look at the world ahead Cause if theres one thing right, thats going on now, Its the dreamers who keep trying, and the fact on how this world keeps spinning round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and But we keep on dreaming, we keeping onna trying Even with these problems, were one step from dying And we keep complaining the rain keeps onna raining And the guns still pointing the soldiers are still training To the young we welcome the world of hell Give them all our best, but so much has yet to tell And if we have one thing right Thats going on now Its the dreamers who keep trying and the fact on how this world keeps spinning round

Young soul lost years of work and pain Man he struggles somewhere, somewhere behind the scenes He been keeping his kids and wife a place to sleep Gotta loan or 2 or 3 to stay up in his feet ya It’s a long fall for the rain But I still feel the same Doesn’t change a thing Tears sweating down on her chalky face Hold my glass forget the past and just erase I wish it were fine to just leave em behind without leaving a trace Ya wondering why the time the place I can’t believe my instinct Were so touched in crazy ways Its a long fall for the rain But i still feel your pain Its not what matters most Its not what you control 60 hours a week to just keep on the lights Drunken days to numb the pain of modern life And I guess he thought he was doing something right When he came home shot the kids and wife and than died ya Were so touched in crazy ways Long fall for the rain We still feel the same Its not what matters most Its nothing you control Sometimes its hard to think of than We miss you so my god we’re praying for no pain Long fall for the rain

She keeps believing all the lies I wanna try I wanna try I wanna try, to make it right She keeps on saying goodbyes I wanna die I wanna die I wanna die, don't feel right Cause when your sitting and standing so still I cannot lose the catch kinda losing the thrill We cannot keep abiding with all these rules So we can keep up new and cool one two We will win one step than lose I wanted to shoot her down I wanted to give up all my trust my ways i've found I thought that she'd come around I thought she would come around my god I guess thats not so She keeps on telling me lies With the lives with the lives of the people who signed She keeps on swearing its alright I wanna find i wanna find a way to stay out alive Cause when she taps right into my phone Keeps knocking on the door when nobodies home Asking all these questions of what i am known This just aint right this aint my home no oh oh, not right this aint my home Not right this aint my home Big mans not changing soon I wanted to shoot her down I wanted to leave this town She makes me want to move away I bet you feel the same I thought she would come around I thought she would change her sound But we don't have a choice now do we we must stay in bounds

this dark, dark world Will never have to follow us again Will never have to follow us till death This dark world Dusk and dawn will set the sun of future days of ahead Ya I know that someday well be dead Ya I know that someday doesn’t have to be today Until the sky goes down and were all scrambling round Little will we have, the sights and sounds Little do we need cause what we got is what i want and I got you This dark, dark girl She said she’ll never follow me again Said that she won’t follow me to death This dark girl And my heart is in pain Ya never want to follow her again Ya never want to follow her till death My heart aches I caught you wondering A little giggling Half sleeping when you talk and I can understand You know your better half Now count the aftermath So drop it and get low Take it fast or take it slow Pop the pressure up Boot it down till we explode We won so long ago I can see it with ya pride Waxing up the board and heading straight into the tide the sun has no pain So long as I can see you once again So long as I can notice you till death My heart wins Your heart wins This dark, dark girl She said she’ll never follow me again Said that she won’t follow me to death This dark girl Dusk till dawn I know you still feel pain beneath your toes Im hoping Im the only one that knows Im hoping we can both be set in stone till someone throws My dear were solid on the tears for just today I know that we can find a better way Im hoping we can reach to the top, of the drop dead mountain phase I know i said I’m sorry I know i said I am sorry this dark, dark world Will never have to follow us again Will never have to follow us till death This dark world

Theres no type of word that you can say to describe it Such a delay to feeling numb She wants to let go but she just hides it Wants us to know that she can fight it Sometimes in life we feel nothing but dead Ya Open your mind to just shut it Talk about feeling so worthless Talk about feeling so mighty high and dry Did we lose our heads again? Did we walk when we should’ve ran, knowing its caving in Did we lose our heads again? Having shut all the open doors, I will not let you in Have we lost our heads again? Did we lose what coulda been all our days, left for dead Did we lose our heads again? Have we lost what should of been, coulda been, better days Foot in the mud trapped lost all connections Riding round blind and I can hardly feel the stress of the new world Feel the pain of the of the cold, and frigid air We all had hopes and my god now there gone Feeling so strong until your knocked down Straight on your face ya was it worth it? Straight on your face, ya feel worthless We hit it smack too hard bass lines tumbling Everyone is fumbling We hit it smack too close every time, every day Not were stuck here wondering We head hit him to hard now closer shut, keep em out Doesn’t have you questioning We found a line long ago, keep in touch Heart of stone Now were stuck wondering she told me she loved me and why would she make mistakes she told me she needed help but than she just walked away I told her I loved her And how was that my mistake? I told her she needed help But than I just walked away And she took it Wheres my love Wheres my bright and sunny days

If I could of spit the words so picture perfect of my memory I’d start before the chemicals would finally take me Id wish that the world would shine in better beauty though I dig it now Your part of everything thats happened not just in your town but all round We’re letting you know right now We’re letting you show somehow That you are whats part of us And we are a part of one So take it all in somehow Yes take it all in now now Doing alright for sure In the middle of the world I wish you would come right out and dance with me to spirits in the song Something to remember to abide to what you said I wish that the world could feel as open as this guy is when with you We’re part of everyone and everything is set in tune right thru and thru I’m letting you go right now I’m letting you know right now That you could just come and stay Anytime any day Come on out and show me how Come on out and show Crazy is the way it seems to be so pity cruel You must’ve tried, you must’ve tried I know that you are no fool And its time to start unwinding in the breeze up in the shade But its the warmth you gave inside your face that helped me feel great Onto the lines, Onto the lines Of nothing better than this Onto my knees, onto my knees I fall and vanish to bliss In the cage I’m erased, let me out or I’ll scream We’re letting you know right now If you could just show me how I’ll just get out of your way You just make me want to stay So come on and show us now So come out and show

She said to me Life is oh so beautiful I felt alive and free That she taught me how to glow With my eyes wide With my eyes wide With my eyes Baby I would take you home with me But sometimes we just gotta make believe, come on She told me so Love was always next to me Standing right out the door Is pure love and ecstasy With our eyes wide With our eyes wide With our eyes Its just I thought you cared Its just I thought you tried Its that Im too weak Inside those blood shot eyes Its just that its not time Its just, sometimes you lie You know that you can make me feel alive Baby you could take me home with you And i believed what you were sayins true And I know that together we’d go far But far apart is where id like to start And baby you may never even see What your problem is with possibilities You say you love but you really hate inside its really nothing, its just that you had lied
