Angels Cry

Well it's hard to explain but I'll try if you let me
Well its hard to sustain
I'll cry if you let me
This doesn't change the way I feel about you or your place in my life
(please don't cry)
Can't you see I'm dying here?
A shot of broken heart that is chased with fear

Angels cry when stars collide
And I can't eat and I can't breathe
I wouldn't want it any other way

Intentions that were pure have turned obscure
Seconds into hours
Minutes into years
Don't ask me why
(please don't cry)
I cant tell you lies

Angels cry when stars collide
And I can't eat and I can't breathe
I wouldn't want it any other way.
[repeat]

My heart burns through
My chest to the floor
Tearing me silently although abruptly
Words cant hide as I'm taking you home
And I tried to see
Tried to understand your words as I'm taking you home

Angels cry when stars collide
And I can't eat and I can't breathe
I wouldn't want it any other way
[repeat]

20 Hour Drive

Yeahhhhhhhhh, yeah, yeah
Now it's fallin' around you
Pick up the pieces
You know they won't fit
Teardrops are fallin' down like rain
Ocean water around you
I see it comin' 'round again
I know

Now I realize that I'll be fine and I'll forget you
Will you ever learn that there's more to life than helping yourself?
Will I reach out my hand and stop you from fallin', which starts this over again?

This time there's nowhere left to talk as I run down the boardwalk
Trying hard to forget your face
I know
Wish I could finally find the strength to open up your letters
I think I'll throw them all away instead

Now I realize that I'll be fine and I'll forget you
Will you ever learn that there's more to life than helping yourself?
Will I reach out my hand and stop you from fallin', which starts this over again?

Don't know if I can bring myself to open up your letters
Maybe I'll throw them all away
Forget you all together
Know now I'm waiting back at home
Know now I'm waiting back at home and I am starving for affection
Affection....... [repeat x4]

When will I finally find the strength to open up your letters?
I think I'll throw them all away
Forget you all together
When will I find my way back home?
Find my way on back home
My way back home
And now it's falling around you
Pick up the pieces
You know they won't fit

The Acoustic Song

When I see your smile
Tears roll down my face I can't replace
And now that I'm strong I have figured out
How this world turns cold and it breaks through my soul
And I know I'll find deep inside me I can be the one

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up for you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

Seasons are changing
And waves are crashing
And stars are falling all for us
Days grow longer and nights grow shorter
I can show you I'll be the one

I will never let you fall (let you fall)
I'll stand up for you forever
I'll be there for you through it all (through it all)
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

'Cause you're my, you're my, my, my true love, my whole heart
Please don't throw that away
'Cause I'm here for you
Please don't walk away and
Please tell me you'll stay, stay

Use me as you will
Pull my strings just for a thrill
And I know I'll be okay
Though my skies are turning gray

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up for you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up for you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven
[Oh's into fade]

Grim Goodbye

Oh my eyes
oh closing slowly

Don't you try to take me down,
don't you try to take me over,
won't you try to break me?

The complexities moving in,
and I feel that I do not have the strength,
tragedies plaguing me solemnly
It's affecting my will

But wait, now that I've found you,
situations from dark now change to gray
Disregarding my absence of memories,
it's perpetually blinding me of sanity,
and just when I'm giving in,
as I try to scale these walls
Jericho falls around me
and I feel that I've strayed too long

And darkness is fading in, and darkness is real

Oh my eyes
oh closing slowly
I try

Fate seems to recreate,
I just cannot escape,
Something holds me down and makes me
act a way I can't explain
Even now I can feel it coming over me choking me,
as I'm falling behind
You can say you know me,
but you have no clue what my dreams could show you

And darkness is fading in, and darkness is real

Oh my eyes
oh closing slowly
I try

I
Can't
Can't win
...Tell me what you see.

I feel something deep inside me,
I feel deep inside...me!
I feel something deep inside me
and I can't let this go, whoa, (can't let this go)
I feel something deep inside me
and I can't let this go, whoa,

Lie, as I try to steer clear, and I try to stay sober
This is taking me over,
And my dreams complicate it...

I just cannot let this go
I tried so many times to tell you
I just I cannot let this go,
I just cannot win

I see you
I see you...you falling away
I see you...you
You... killing me softly
I see you...you falling away
I see you...you...you

Don't take what's in front of me,
open eyes can see I have everything
Tell you, don't take what's in front of me,
tell you, don't take what's in me

Lie, which one lied?
When I feel this come away,
Way-ooahh
that's why I try...lie

[Crowd singing]
Whoaa..ohh..ohhh...

I see you coming my way
dreams may fall more everyday
But I see you looking my way

And I've tried just to separate dreams from reality
Try to satisfy this wanting,
Try to stay righteous, try to stay sober,
but then, I can't win

And I know you, and I know you, and I know you...

Lie!

Outside

And you, you can bring me to my knees-again
All the times that I could beg you please-in vain
All the times that I felt insecure-for you
And I leave my burdens at the door

[Chorus]
I'm on the outside and I'm lookin' in
I can see through you, see your true colors
'Cause inside you're ugly, you're Ugly like me
And I can see through you, see to the real you
All the times that I've felt like this won't end-it's for you
And I taste what I could never have-it was from you
All the times that I've cried, my intentions were full of pride
But I waste more time than anyone

[Chorus]
But I'm on the outside and I'm looking in

I can see through you, see your true colors
'Cause inside you're ugly, you're ugly like me
And I can see through you, see to the real you

All the times that I've cried
All this wastin', it's all inside
And I feel all this pain
I stuffed it down, it's back again
And I lie here in bed
All alone, I can't mend
But I feel tomorrow will be okay

[Chorus]
But I'm on the outside and I'm lookin' in
I can see through you, see your true colors
'Cause inside you're ugly, you're ugly like me
I can see through you, see to the real you
