1. WAKE UP


Songwriters: Todd, Michael T; Eppard, Joshua; Sanchez, Claudio; Stever, Travis;

I'm gonna ride this plane out of your life again
I wish that I could stay but you argue
More than this I wish, you could've seen my face
In backseats staring out of the window

I'll do anything for you
Kill anyone for you

So leave yourself intact
'Cause I will be coming back
In a phrase to cut these lips
I love you

The morning will come
In the press of every kiss
With your head upon my chest
Where I will annoy you
With every waking breath
Until you decide to wake up

I've earned through hope and faith
On the curves around your face

That I'm the one you'll hold forever
If morning never comes for either one of us
Then this I pray to you wherever

I'll do anything for you
This story is for you
I'll do anything for you
Kill anyone for you

So leave yourself intact
'Cause I won't be coming back
In a phrase to cut these lips
I loved you

The morning will come
In the press of every kiss
With your head upon my chest
Where I will annoy you
With every waking breath
Until you decide to wake up

The morning will come
In the press of every kiss
With your head upon my chest
Where I will annoy you
With every waking breath
Till you decide to wake up

this gift for you engraved,
the shift as you strech your legs
you were so well behaved,,,

who taught these tricks that made, you were so well behaved

if the world stops turning girl you better not stop when i say,,

if there was nothing you could do to stop me

then the ground starts parting through the silence as you woke up the dead,,

but im not quite shure what youve been told

on labor day,,

im not starting with you but the faint of hearts,, will worries weigh,

and im not quite shure what this unfolds

on labor day,,

3. MADE OUT OF NOTHING [ALL THAT I AM]

Never mind all the lines, I'm coming
And there is no better part of me...
You'll see
The darkest light, the blind I'll be
I accept that you chose to forget
The horrid thing you made out of me, my dear
It is alright...it is so...

The laughing feels so good
But the world misunderstood all I said
There was no joking in what I meant

Someone please come
Shelter me from
All that I am
Never again will I believe the same old stories

I've given up on all I love,
For an honest moment of clarity
I need to feel alright, please let me breathe
In a life I made out of nothing
To cleanse this useless identity
Will you hear all the world and its whys?


Just wait...will the latter half be as good?
If only I misunderstood
I weigh all this judgment, I've been blamed

Someone please come
Shelter me from
All that I am
Never again will I believe the same old stories

I failed you...I fail
There's no understanding in miracles when the worst, it always comes true
I am the nothing you have saved

Someone please come
Shelter me from
All that I am
Never again will I believe the same old stories

It eats us like cancer, we're combing for something, maybe an answer with all that you've done for me

4. THE SUFFERING

Is there a word or right to say
Even in this old fashioned way?
Go make your move, girl
I'm not coming home

Would things have changed if I could've stayed?
Would you have loved me either way?
Dressed to the blues.
Day to day with my collar up.

Decision sits so make it quick
A breath inhaled from an air so sick
I cursed the day I had learned
Of the web you spun...
You had your hold till bleeding

Hey, Hey!
If it was up to me
I would've figured you out
Way before the year clocked out
Oh, I hope you're waiting

Hey, Hey!
If it was up to me
I would've never walked out
So until the sun burns out
Oh, I hope you're waiting

Would we have lived as a child would care?
With this vial to drink I dare
(Oh where have you been, oh where have you been)
Only to cry all alone with your taste on tongue
(Oh where have you been if it hurts to be forgiving? Bye)

Should we try this again with hope? (Bye, bye)
Or is it lost, give up the ghost
And should I die all alone as I knew I would...
Then burn in hell young sinner

Hey, Hey! (Ha ha)
If it was up to me
I would've figured you out
Way before the year clocked out
Oh, I hope you're waiting
Oh, I hope you're waiting

Listen well... will you marry me?
Not now, Boy
Are you well in the Suffering?
You've been the most gracious of hosts

You may be invited, girl, but you're not coming in

Listen well... will you marry me?
Not now, Boy
Are you well in the Suffering?
You've been the most gracious of hosts
I may be invited, girl, but I'm not coming in

Hey, Hey!
If it was up to me (you had your hold)
I would've figured you out
Way before the year clocked out
Oh, I hope you're waiting

Hey, Hey!
If it was up to me (give up the ghost)
I would've never walked out (Oh where have you been, oh where have
you been)
So until the sun burns out (Oh where have you been if it hurts to be
forgiving?)
Oh, I hope you're waiting

Listen well... will you marry me?
Not now, Boy
Are you well in the Suffering?
You've been the most gracious of hosts
You may be invited, girl, but you're not coming in

Listen well... will you marry me?
Not now, Boy
Are you well in the Suffering?
You've been the most gracious of hosts
I may be invited, girl, but I'm not coming in

Listen well... will you marry me?
Not now, Boy
Are you well in the Suffering?
You've been the most gracious of hosts
You may be invited, girl, but you're not coming in

Listen well... will you marry me?
Not now, Boy
Are you well in the Suffering?
You've been the most gracious of hosts
I may be invited, girl, but I'm not coming in
And you're not coming in

5. ALWAYS & NEVER

If beauty sits the child's kiss
Of laughter I amend
Can you catch her if she runs?

With this I would share with you
All of this count to no end

Behind your sealed eyes you miss
All that I've done for you
Will you catch me when I run?

If timing play evident
What will you say when you're late?

Stay with me and fall asleep
Pray to God for no bad dreams

Stay with me and fall asleep
Pray to God for no bad dreams

Here... I'm still waiting here, my dear
For one kiss from you
So here... I'm still waiting here, my dear
To kill all of you
To kill all of you

6. THREE EVILS [EMBODIED IN LOVE AND SHADOW]

Across the floor in the hand of where we drove the drill
A cautious ear to the mouth of your confession
Think of all the things we put him through
In the face of his god would he tell the truth?

Still recorded were the words that dribbled out his kiss
When eyes go blind in this man of what could once become
Sever the limbs off his torso in sleep
And burn what remains so the world may now see
No longer...will we wait for your answers
Back to the hell where you've come from
Think of all the times you've once had
Write them in a letter that says "goodbye"

You'll listen to reason while you're face down in the dirt
You'll stomach the hurt and break for him here just how much he's
worth

Slowly discarded were the remains of his lonely youth
Among the alley where the dwellers scare to notice
Picture a young boy in pieces and streets with leveled malfunctions
No name to be called redeemer
We'll fix him restore him...with the love is no other
Think of all the things you did before

Write them in a letter that says reborn

You'll listen to reason while you're face down in the dirt
You'll stomach the hurt and break for him here just how much he's
worth

Following you across the interstate walking away...I'll fire on
Following you across the interstate walking away...I'll fire on
Following you across the interstate walking away...I'll fire on

On the wrong way out
On the causeway to neverwhere
On the wrong way out
On the causeway to neverwhere
On the wrong way out
On the causeway to neverwhere

Dear my friends in the time we've spent forever
after beyond this when will our nightmare ever end?
Dear my friends in the time we've spent forever
after beyond this when will our nightmare ever end?

Pull the trigger and the nightmare stops...
Pull the trigger and the nightmare stops...
Pull the trigger and the nightmare stops...
Forever you will, forever you will learn
[3x]

7. MOTHER, MAY I?


Did you ever really think that you'd
Expose the truth that pains the page?
And in their asking, did you see their lie,
The motive true and earnest side
Four in the morning, should they wake up?
Or see them precious in this sleep?
Every step should break the same
With every move and every need

So run little children, play
I'll leave the light off to turn your mother on
So run little children, play
I'll leave the light off to turn your mother on

Could you ever really wish of them?
One of your games and counts of truth
With every moment you'll trace the doubt
And of the premise what about?
Will they ever really see an end
Or does it matter now from then?
What of their love for once pronounced
And of this love a loss without

So run little children, play

I'll leave the light off to turn your mother on
So run little children, play
I'll leave the light off to turn your mother on

I should have known

God only knows when your word isn't pure
And the blood on your hands isn't yours
I won't believe any word that you tell
And I won't drink the blood if it spills

So give them the story they want...
You too
So give them the story they want...
A kiss to you girl before you fall down and leave me
[x2]

So give them the story they want...
You too, before you leave me
[x4]

God only knows when your word isn't pure
And the blood on your hands isn't yours
I won't believe any word that you tell
And I won't drink the blood if it spills
[x2]
