LINKIN PARK

 Bleed It Out
 
Yeah here we go for the hundredth time,
Hand grenade pins in every line
Throw them up and let something shine
Going out of my fuckin mind
Filthy mouth, no excuse
Find a new place to hang this noose
String me up from atop these roofs
Knot it tight so I won't get loose
The truth is you can stop and stare
Run myself out and no one cares
Dug the trench out, dug down there
Put the shovel up out of reach somewhere
Someone pour it in, make it a dirt dance floor again
Say your prayers and stomp it out
When they bring that chorus in

I bleed it out,
Digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out,
Digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out,
Digging deeper just to throw it away
Just to throw it away, just to throw it away
I bleed it out

I bleed it out, go, stop the show
Drop your boards and let sloppy show
Shotgun opera lock and load
Cock it back and then watch it go
Momma help me, I've been cursed
Death is rolling in every verse
Candy paint on his brand new hearse
Can't contain and he knows he works
Fuck this hurts, I won't lie
Doesn't matter how hard I try
Half the words don't mean a thing
And I know that I won't be satisfied
So why, try ignore him?
Make it a dirt-dance floor again
Say your prayers and stomp it out
When they bring that chorus in

I bleed it out,
Digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out,
Digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out,
Digging deeper just to throw it away
Just to throw it away, just to throw it away
I bleed it out

I've opened up these scars
I'll make you face us
I've pulled myself so far
I'll make... you... face... us... now...

I bleed it out,
Digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out,
Digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out,
Digging deeper just to throw it away
Just to throw it away, just to throw it away
I bleed it out
Digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out,
Digging deeper just to throw it away
I bleed it out,
Digging deeper just to throw it away
Just to throw it away, just to throw it away
I bleed it out, I bleed it out
I bleed it out

 Given up
 
Wake in a sweat again
Another day's been laid to waste
In my disgrace
Stuck in my head again
Feels like I'll never leave this place
There's no escape

I'm my own worst enemy...

I've given up; I'm sick of feeling
Is there nothing you can say?
Take this all away; I'm suffocating
Tell me what the fuck is wrong with me

I don't know what to take
Thought I was focused but I'm scared
I'm not prepared
I hyperventilate
Looking for help somehow somewhere
And no one cares

I'm my own worst enemy...

I've given up; I'm sick of feeling
Is there nothing you can say?
Take this all away; I'm suffocating
Tell me what the fuck is wrong with me

Put me out of my misery
Put me out of my misery
Put me out of my...
Put me out of my fucking misery...

I've given up; I'm sick of feeling
Is there nothing you can say?
Take this all away; I'm suffocating
Tell me what the fuck is wrong with me

 Hands Held High
 
Turn my mic up louder, I've got to say something
Lightweights stepping aside when we come in
Feel it in your chest, the syllables get pumpin
People on the street, they panic and start running
Words on loose leaf sheet complete coming
Jump in my mind, I summon the rhyme I'm dumpin
I'm healing the blind, I promise to let the sun in
Sick of the dark ways we march to the drumming
Jump when they tell us that they want to see jump
Fuck that, I want to see some fists pumpin
I missed something, take back what's yours
Say something that you know they might attack you for
'Cause I'm sick of being treated like I have before
Like I'm stupid standing for what I'm standing for
Like this war's really just a different brand of war
Like it doesn't cater to rich and abandon poor
Like they understand you in the back of the jet
When you can't put gas in your tank
These fuckers are laughing their way to the bank
And cashing their check, asking you
To have compassion and have some respect
For a leader so nervous in an obvious way
Stuttering and mumbling for nightly news to replay
The rest of the world watching at the end of the day
In the living room, laughing, like, what did he say?

Amen... Amen... Amen... Amen...
Amen...

In my living room, watching, but I am not laughing
'Cause when it gets tense, I know what might happen
The world is cold, and bold men take action
Have to react or get blown into fractions
Ten years old, and something to see
Is another kid my age drugged under a jeep
Taken abound and found later under a tree
I wonder if he thought the next one could be me
Do you see? The soldiers that are out today
That brush the dust with bullet proof vests away
It's ironic, at times like this you pray
But a bomb blew tha mosque up yesterday
There's bombs on the buses, bikes, roads
Inside your market, your shops, your clothes
My dad, he's got a lot of fear I know
But enough pride inside not to let that show
My brother had a book he would hold with pride
A little red cover with a broken spine
In the back, he hand wrote a quote inside
'When the rich wage war, it's the poor who die'
Meanwhile, their leader just talks away
Stuttering and mumbling for Nightly News to replay
The rest of the world watching at the end of the day
Both scared and angry, like, "what did he say?"

Amen... Amen... Amen... Amen...
Amen...

With hands held high into a sky so blue
As the ocean opens up to swallow you
With hands held high into a sky so blue
As the ocean opens up to swallow you
With hands held high into a sky so blue
As the ocean opens up to swallow you
With hands held high into a sky so blue

 In Between
 

Let me apologize to begin with
Let me apologize for what I'm about to say
But trying to be genuine was harder than it seemed
And somehow I got caught up in between

Let me apologize to begin with
Let me apologize for what I'm about to say
But trying to be someone else was harder than it seemed
And somehow I got caught up in between
Between my pride, and my promise
Between my lies, and how the truth gets in the way
The things I want to say to you get lost before they come
The only thing that's worse than one is none

Let me apologize to begin with
Let me apologize for what I'm about to say
But trying to regain your trust was harder than it seemed
And somehow I got caught up in between
Between my pride, and my promise
Between my lies, and how the truth gets in the way
The things I want to say to you get lost before they come
The only thing that's worse than one is none
The only thing that's worse than one is none...

And I can not explain to you in anything I say or do or plan
Fear is not afraid of you, guilt's a language you can understand
I can not explain to you in anything I say or do
But I hope that actions speak the words they can

For my pride and my promise
For my lies, and how the truth gets in the way
The things I want to say to you get lost before they come
The only thing that's worse than one is
Pride, and my promise
Between my lies and how the truth gets in the way
The things I want to say to you get lost before they come
The only thing that's worse than one is none
The only thing that's worse than one is none
The only thing that's worse than one is none
As the ocean opens up to swallow you

 Leave Out All The Rest
 
I dreamed I was missing, you were so scared
But no one would listen, 'cause no one else cared
After my dreaming, I woke with this fear:
What am I leaving when I am done here?

So if you're asking me,
I want you to know....

When my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed
And don't resent me, when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory, and leave out all the rest

Leave out all the rest; don't be afraid
I've taken my beating, I've shared what I've made
I'm strong on the surface, not all the way through
I've never been perfect, but neither have you

So if you're asking me,
I want you to know....

When my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed
Don't resent me, and when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory, and leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest...

Forgetting all the hurt inside that you've learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are

When my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed
Don't resent me, and when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory, leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest...

Forgetting all the hurt inside you've learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are

I can't be who you are..

 No More Sorrow
 
Are you lost in your lies
Do you tell yourself I don't realize
Your crusade's a disguise
Replace freedom with fear; You trade money for lies

I'm aware of what you've done

No! No more sorrow
I've paid for your mistakes
Your time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced!

I see pain, I see need
I see liars and thieves, replace power with greed
I had hope, I believed
But I'm beginning to think that I've been decieved

You will pay for what you've done!

No! No more sorrow
I've paid for your mistakes
Your time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced!

Lies and hypocrites
Thieves and hypocrites
Thieves and hypocrites!

No! No more sorrow
I've paid for your mistakes
Your time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced!
No more sorrow
I've paid for your mistakes
Your time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced!

Your time has come to be replaced!
Your time has come to be erased!

 Shadow Of The Day
 
I close both locks below the window
I close both blinds and turn away
Sometimes delusions aren't so simple
Sometimes goodbye is the only way

And the sun will set for you
The sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in gray
And the sun will set for you

And cards and flowers on your window
Your friends all plead for you to stay
Sometimes beginnings aren't so simple
Sometimes goodbye is the only way

And the sun will set for you
The sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in gray
And the sun will set for you

And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in gray
And the sun will set for you

And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in gray
And the sun will set for you

 The Little Things Give You Away
 

Water came through the windows, up the stairs
Chilling there, like an ocean everywhere

Don't want to reach for me, do you?
I mean nothing to you, the little things give you away
And now there will be no mistaking
The levees are breaking

All you've ever wanted...
Was someone to truly look up to you
And six feet under water, I do...

Hope decays, generations disappear
Washed away, as a nation simply stares

Don't want to reach for me, do you?
I mean nothing to you, the little things give you away
But now there will be no mistaking
The levees are breaking

All you've ever wanted...
Was someone to truly look up to you
And six feet under water, I do...
All you've ever wanted...
Was someone to truly look up to you
And six feet underground, now I...
Now I do...

Oh... Oh...
The little things give you away... the little things give you away
All you've ever wanted was someone to truly look up to you
All you've ever wanted was someone to truly look up to you

 A Place For My Head

I watch how the moon sits in the sky
On a dark night, shining with the light from the sun
But the sun doesn’t give the light to the moon
Assuming the moon’s gonna owe it one
It makes me think of how you act to me
You do favors then rapidly
You just turn around and start asking me about
Things that you want back from me

I’m sick of the tension
Sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place
To feed your greed
While I find a place to rest

I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you don’t understand
(You’ll see it’s not meant to be)
I wanna be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head

Maybe, someday, I’ll be just like you and
Step on people like you do and
Run away all the people I thought I knew
I remember back then who you were
You used to be calm, used to be strong
Used to be generous, but you should’ve known
That you’d wear out your welcome
And now you’ll see how quiet it is all alone

I’m sick of the tension
Sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place
To feed your greed
While I find a place to rest

I’m sick of the tension
Sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place
To feed your greed
While I find a place to rest

I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you don’t understand
(You’ll see it’s not meant to be)
I wanna be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head

You try to take the best of me
Go away
You try to take the best of me
Go away
You try to take the best of me
Go away
You try to take the best of me
Go away
You try to take the best of me
Go away
You try to take the best of me
Go away
You try to take the best of me
Go away
You try to take the best of me
Go away

I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you don’t understand
(You’ll see it’s not meant to be)
I wanna be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head

Get away

I am so sick of the tension
Sick of the hunger
(Get away)
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place
To feed your greed
While I find a place to rest

I’m sick of the tension
Sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
(Get away from me)
Find another place
To feed your greed
While I find a place to rest

 By Myself
 

What do I do to ignore them behind me?
Do I follow my instincts blindly?
Do I hide my pride from these bad dreams
And give in to sad thoughts that are maddening?
Do I sit here and try to stand it
Or do I try to catch them red-handed?
Do I trust some and get fooled by phoniness
Or do I trust none and live life in loneliness?
Because I can’t hold on when I’m stretched so thin
I make the right moves, but I’m lost within
I put on my daily facade, but then
I just end up getting hurt again

By myself
(Myself)
I ask why
(But in my mind, I find)
I can’t rely on myself
(Myself)
I ask why
(But in my mind, I find)
I can’t rely on myself

I can’t hold on
(To what I want when I’m stretched so thin)
It’s all too much to take in
I can’t hold on
(To anything, watching everything spin)
With thoughts of failure sinking in

If I turn my back, I’m defenseless
And to go blindly seems senseless
If I hide my pride and let it all go on
Then they’ll take from me ‘til everything is gone
If I let them go I’ll be outdone
But if I try to catch them, I’ll be outrun
If I’m killed by the questions like a cancer
Then I’ll be buried in the silence of the answer

By myself
(Myself)
I ask why
(But in my mind, I find)
I can’t rely on myself
(Myself)
I ask why
(But in my mind, I find)
I can’t rely on myself

I can’t hold on
(To what I want when I’m stretched so thin)
It’s all too much to take in
I can’t hold on
(To anything, watching everything spin)
With thoughts of failure sinking in

How do you think I’ve lost so much?
I’m so afraid, I’m out of touch
How do you expect I will know what to do
When all I know is what you tell me to?

Don’t you (know)?
I can’t tell you how to make it (go)
No matter what I do, how hard I (try)
I can’t seem to convince myself (why)
I’m stuck on the outside

Don’t you (know)?
I can’t tell you how to make it (go)
No matter what I do, how hard I (try)
I can’t seem to convince myself (why)
I’m stuck on the outside

I can’t hold on
(To what I want when I’m stretched so thin)
It’s all too much to take in
I can’t hold on
(To anything, watching everything spin)
With thoughts of failure sinking in

I can’t hold on
(To what I want when I’m stretched so thin)
It’s all too much to take in
I can’t hold on
(To anything, watching everything spin)
With thoughts of failure sinking

 Crawling
 

Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real

There’s something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing
This lack of self-control, I fear, is never-ending
Controlling, I can’t seem
To find myself again
My walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence
I’m confinced that there’s just too much pressure to take)
I’ve felt this way before
So insecure

Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real

Discomfort, endlessly, has pulled itself upon me
Distracting, reacting
Against my will, I stand beside my own reflection
It’s haunting how I can’t seem
To find myself again
My walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence
I’m convinced that there’s just too much pressure to take)
I’ve felt this way before
So insecure

Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real

Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing, confusing what is real
(There’s something inside me that pulls beneath the surface)
Confusing what is real
(This lack of self-control, I fear, is never-ending)
Confusing what is real

 Forgotten
 
From the top to the bottom
Bottom to top I stop
At the core, I’ve forgotten
In the middle of my thoughts
Taken far from my safety
The picture’s there
The memory won’t escape me
But why should I care?

From the top to the bottom
Bottom to top I stop
At the core, I’ve forgotten
In the middle of my thoughts
Taken far from my safety
The picture’s there
The memory won’t escape me
But why should I care?

There’s a place so dark, you can’t see the end
Skies cock back and shock that which can’t defend
The rain then sends dripping an acidic question
Forcefully, the power of suggestion
Then with the eyes shut, looking through the rust
And rot and dust, a spot of light floods the floor
And pours over the rusted world of pretend
And the eyes ease open and it’s dark again

From the top to the bottom
Bottom to top I stop
At the core, I’ve forgotten
In the middle of my thoughts
Taken far from my safety
The picture’s there
The memory won’t escape me
But why should I care?

In the memory, you’ll find me
Eyes burning up
The darkness holding me tightly
Until the sun rises up

Moving all around, screaming of the ups and downs
Pollution manifested in perpetual sound
The wheels go ‘round and the sunset creeps
Behind street lamps chainlink and concrete
A little piece of paper with a picture drawn
Floats on down the street ‘til the wind is gone
The memory now is like the picture was then
When the paper’s crumpled up, it can’t be perfect again

From the top to the bottom
Bottom to top I stop
At the core, I’ve forgotten
In the middle of my thoughts
Taken far from my safety
The picture’s there
The memory won’t escape me
But why should I care?

From the top to the bottom
Bottom to top I stop
At the core, I’ve forgotten
In the middle of my thoughts
Taken far from my safety
The picture’s there
The memory won’t escape me
But why should I care?

In the memory, you’ll find me
Eyes burning up
The darkness holding me tightly
Until the sun rises up

Now you’ve got me caught in the act
You bring the thought back
I’m telling you that I see it right through you

Now you’ve got me caught in the act
You bring the thought back
I’m telling you that I see it right through you

Now you’ve got me caught in the act
You bring the thought back
I’m telling you that I see it right through you

Now you’ve got me caught in the act
You bring the thought back
I’m telling you that I see it right through you

Now you’ve got me caught in the act
You bring the thought back
I’m telling you that I see it right through you

Now you’ve got me caught in the act
You bring the thought back
I’m telling you that I see it right through you

Now you’ve got me caught in the act
You bring the thought back
I’m telling you that I see it right through you

In the memory, you’ll find me
Eyes burning up
The darkness holding me tightly
Until the sun rises up

In the memory, you will find me
Eyes burning up
The darkness holding me tightly
Until the sun rises up
 

 In The End
 

(It starts with)
One thing, I don’t know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
(All I know)
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
(It’s so unreal)
Didn’t look out below
Watched the time go right out the window
Tried to hold on, but didn’t even know
I wasted it all just to
(Watch you go)
I kept everything inside
And, even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be
A memory of a time when

I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter

One thing, I don’t know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how
(I tried so hard)
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I’m surprised that it got so
(Far)
Things aren’t the way the were before
You wouldn’t even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me
(In the end)
I kept everything inside
And, even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be
A memory of a time when

I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter

I put my trust in you, pushed as far as I can go
For all this, there’s only one thing you should know

I put my trust in you, pushed as far as I can go
For all this, there’s only one thing you should know

I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter

 One Step Closer
 

I cannot take this anymore
Saying everything I’ve said before
All these words, they make no sense
I found bliss in ignorance
Less I hear, the less you say
You’ll find that out anyway
Just like before

Everything you say to me
(Takes me one step closer to the edge)
And I’m about to break
I need a little room to breathe
(‘Cause I’m one step closer to the edge)
I’m about to break

I find the answers aren’t so clear
Wish I could find a way to disappear
All these thoughts, they make no sense
I found bliss in ignorance
Nothing seems to go away
Over and over again
Just like before

Everything you say to me
(Takes me one step closer to the edge)
And I’m about to break
I need a little room to breathe
(‘Cause I’m one step closer to the edge)
I’m about to break

Everything you say to me
(Takes me one step closer to the edge)
And I’m about to break
I need a little room to breathe
(‘Cause I’m one step closer to the edge)
And I’m about to break

Shut up when I’m talking to you
Shut up
Shut up
Shut up
Shut up when I’m talking to you
Shut up
Shut up
Shut up
Shut up
I’m about to break

Everything you say to me
(Takes me one step closer to the edge)
And I’m about to break
I need a little room to breathe
(‘Cause I’m one step closer to the edge)
I’m about to break

Everything you say to me
(Takes me one step closer to the edge)
And I’m about to break
I need a little room to breathe
(‘Cause I’m one step closer to the edge)
And I’m about to break

 Papercut
 

Why does it feel like night today?
Something in here’s not right today
Why am I so uptight today?
Paranoia’s all I got left
I don’t know what stressed me first
Or how the pressure was fed
But, I know just what it feels like
To have a voice in the back of my head
It’s like a face that I hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face that watches every time I lie
A face that laughs every time I fall
(And watches everything)
So I know that, when it’s time to sink or swim
That the face inside is hearing me
Right underneath my skin

It’s like I’m paranoid, looking over my back
It’s like a whirlwind inside of my head
It’s like I can’t stop what I’m hearing within
It’s like the face inside is right beneath my skin

I know I’ve got a face in me
Points out all the mistakes to me
You’ve got a face on the inside, too
Your paranoia’s probably worse
I don’t know what set me off first
But I know what I can’t stand
Everybody acts like the fact of the matter is
I can’t add up to what you can
But everybody has a face that they hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face that watches every time they lie
A face that laughs every time they fall
(And watches everything)
So you know that, when it’s time to sink or swim
That the face inside is hearing you, too
Right inside your skin

It’s like I’m paranoid, looking over my back
It’s like a whirlwind inside of my head
It’s like I can’t stop what I’m hearing within
It’s like the face inside is right beneath my skin

It’s like I’m paranoid, looking over my back
It’s like a whirlwind inside of my head
It’s like I can’t stop what I’m hearing within
It’s like the face inside is right beneath my skin

The face inside is right beneath your skin
The face inside is right beneath your skin
The face inside is right beneath your skin

The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me
The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me

(The sun)
It’s like I’m paranoid, looking over my back
It’s like a whirlwind inside of my head
It’s like I can’t stop what I’m hearing within
(I feel the light betray me)
It’s like the face inside is right beneath my skin
(The sun)
It’s like I’m paranoid, looking over my back
It’s like a whirlwind inside of my head
It’s like I can’t stop what I’m hearing within
(I feel the light betray me)
It’s like I can’t stop what I’m hearing within
It’s like I can’t stop what I’m hearing within
(Ah)
It’s like the face inside is right beneath my skin

 Pushing Me Away
 

I’ve lied to you, the same way that I always do
This is the last smile that I’ll fake for the sake of being with you

Everything falls apart
Even the people who never frown
Eventually break down
(The sacrifice of hiding in a lie)
Everything has to end
You’ll soon find we’re out of time
Left to watch it all unwind
(The sacrifice is never knowing)

Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see, your testing me
Pushes me away

Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see, your testing me
Pushes me away

I’ve tried, like you, to do everything you wanted to
This is the last time I’ll take the blame for the sake of being with you

Everything falls apart
Even the people who never frown
Eventually break down
(The sacrifice of hiding in a lie)
Everything has to end
You’ll soon find, we’re out of time
Left to watch it all unwind
(The sacrifice is never knowing)

Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see, your testing me
Pushes me away

Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see, your testing me
Pushes me away

We’re all out of time
This is how we find
How it all unwinds
(The sacrifice of hiding in a lie)
We’re all out of time
This is how we find
How it all unwinds
(The sacrifice is never knowing)

Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see, your testing me
Pushes me away

Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see, your testing me
Pushes me away

Pushes me away

 Runaway
 

Grafitti decorations under a sky of dust
A constant wave of tension on top of broken trust
The lessons that you taught me
I learned were never true

Now I find myself in question
(They point the finger at me again)
Guilty by association
(You point the finger at me again)

I wanna run away
Never say good-bye
I wanna know the truth
Instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers
No more lies
I wanna shut the door
And open up my eyes

Paper-bags and angry voices under a sky of gray
This constant wave of tension won’t seem to go away
All my talk of taking action
These words were never true

Now I find myself in question
(They point the finger at me again)
Guilty by association
(You point the finger at me again)

I wanna run away
Never say good-bye
I wanna know the truth
Instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers
No more lies
I wanna shut the door
Instead of wondering why

I’m gonna run away
And never say good-bye
Gonna run away
Gonna run away
Gonna run away
Gonna run away
I’m gonna run away
And never wonder why
Gonna run away
Gonna run away
Gonna run away
Gonna run away
I’m gonna run away
And open up my mind
Gonna run away
Gonna run away
(Mind)
Gonna run away
Gonna run away
(Mind)
Gonna run away
Gonna run away
(Mind)
Gonna run away
Gonna run away

I wanna run away
Never say good-bye
I wanna know the truth
Instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers
No more lies
I wanna shut the door
And open up my mind

I wanna run away
And open up my mind
I wanna run away
And open up my mind
I wanna run away
And open up my mind
I wanna run away
And open up my mind

 With You

I woke up in a dream today
To the cold of the static / and put my cold feet on the floor
Forgot all about yesterday
Remembering I’m pretending to be where I’m not anymore
A little taste of hypocrisy
And I’m left in the wake of the mistake / slow to react
Even though you’re so close to me
You’re still so distant / And I can’t bring you back
It’s true / the way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if you’re not with me
I’m with you
You / Now I see/ keeping everything inside
You / Now I see / Even when I close my eyes
I hit you and you hit me back
We fall to the floor / the rest of the day stands still
Fine line between this and that
When things go wrong I pretend the past isn’t real
Now I'm trapped in this memory
And I’m left in the wake of the mistake / slow to react
Even though you’re close to me
You’re still so distant / And I can’t bring you back
no
No matter how far we've come
I can't wait to see tomorrow
With you

 Points Of Authority
 

Forfeit the game
Before somebody else takes you outta the frame
Puts your name to shame
Cover up your face
You can't run the race, the pace is too fast
You just won’t last

You love the way I look at you
While taking pleasure in the awful things you put me through
You take away if I give in
My life, my pride is broken

You like to think you’re never wrong
You live what you’ve learned
You have to act like you’re someone
You live what you’ve learned
You want someone to hurt like you
You live what you’ve learned
You wanna share what you’ve been through
You live what you’ve learned

You love the things I say I’ll do
The way I’ll hurt myself again just to get back at you
You take away when I give in
My life, my pride is broken

You like to think you’re never wrong
You live what you’ve learned
You have to act like you’re someone
You live what you’ve learned
You want someone to hurt like you

You live what you’ve learned

Yo, yo
