1. LITTLE FRIEND

Manhunt to find your daughter
Buried underneath the water
Now they consult a psychic
Find how much I like it

And now I've found a little friend

And now it's just you and me
Borrow one and we will make three
I say we steal one more
Just like we did once before

And now I've found a little friend

Doesn't rest, this won't last
And you touch as too much, running now

And now I've found a little friend

And now I thought I told her
That she won't get much older

And now I've found a little friend

And now it makes no difference
'Cause I am not quite in yet
And now it's on the table
'Cause she's perfectly able

And now I've found a little friend


2. PUSHER

And some say
Why you follow if somethings so long?
So I asked him
And he convinced me before long
Now it's over
And I've seen him, don't come back anymore
And he said

I need
I don't ask much anymore
I found
I found something, yeah

Throw a stone into the water
The ripple is broke
Burn them, baby
Just for holding the candle too close
Take it all back
Search for justice, don't live there anymore
And he said

I need
I don't ask much anymore
I found
I found something, yeah

And why do you see me in this way?
The way that I did
I gave him the means to the ends
Yes, I did
I bothered not to believe in this way
The way that I did
I made him just to see in this way
The way that I did
Yeah, yeah

I need
I don't ask much anymore
I found
I found something, yeah


3. DETANGLER

I asked you to stay
But you said there's no way
I begged you call
And you leave me after all
I know I'm not to blame
I know you don't feel the same
Didn't even tell me why
You just left me here to die

I stand, I fall, I bounce off these four walls
You laugh, you leave
And you leave me here alone

I'm guilty too
I'm giving all to you
That's my worst sin
Sorry for giving in
Didn't mean to waste your time
Thanks for wasting mine
Could have to tried to let me be?
Would you just set me free?

I stand, I fall, I bounce off these four walls
You laugh, you leave
And you leave me here alone
Is this how it's gonna be?
It's fine for you and not for me
Did you even care at all?
You stand, I fall

Could I pay you not to?
Could I pay you not to?
Could I pay you not to?
Could I pay you not to?

I asked you to stay
But you said there's no way
I begged you to call
And you leave me after all
I know I'm not to blame
I know you don't feel the same
Didn't even tell me why
You just left me here to die

I stand, I fall, I bounce off these four walls
You laugh, you leave
And you leave me here alone
Is this how it's gonna be?
It's fine for you and not for me
Did you even care at all?
You stand, I fall

Could I pay you not to? (Fall)
Could I pay you not to? (Fall)
Could I pay you not to? (Fall)
Could I pay you not to? (Fall)
Could I pay you not to? (Fall)
Could I pay you not to? (Fall)
Could I pay you not to? (Fall)
Could I pay you not to? (Fall)


4. CURB

Have I gone all too far?
Have I been here before?
If I have, let me know
How it goes
Take her place
And I will
See her face
No reason
Let it slide
And I will
Watch her die
To run through fields
To find, and I will
Hold, then lead, then lie
And I will, no I won't

Is it now really time?
Can I just give mine?
If I can simply trade
Deal made

Take her place
And I will
See her face
No reason
Let it slide
And I will
Watch her die
To run through fields
To find, and I will
Hold, then lead, then lie
And I will, no I won't

Run, hide away from me
Desouled, to seek, decide
And I will, no I won't

Run through fields to find
Hold then lead, then lie
And I will
Away from me
Run, desouled, and
Hold, to heal, to find
And I can't
Run through fields to find
Hold then lead, then lie
And I will
Away from me
Run, desouled, and
Hold, to heal, to find
No I won't


5. WHERE?

Oh, oh, oh, yeah
Oh, oh, oh, yeah

I was wrong to think
That I could ever trust in you
I was wrong to think that you
Might wanna trust me too

Here I am, here I am, here I'll stand
Here I am, here I am, here I am, here I'll stand

I was wrong to think
That I could ever love in you
I was wrong to think that you
Might wanna love me too

Here I am, here I am, here I'll stand
Here I am, here I am, here I am, here I'll stand

So where the hell are you?
So where the hell are you?
So where are you when I need someone too?
And I am hating you
Oh, oh, oh yeah
Oh, oh, oh yeah

Here I am, here I am, here I'll stand
Here I am, here I am, here I am, here I'll stand

So where the hell are you?
So where the hell are you?
So where are you when I need someone too?
And I am hating you

Oh, oh, oh, yeah
Oh, oh, oh


6. FALLS BACK ON

No, I don't guess
I don't sacrifice
And I know
I don't realize
Just how much
I can idolize...and I know and I know
And then I find it falls back on
On to me, to see, believe
And down onto you, we do, it's true
And I won't beg to stay, to leave, or to believe
A word you say, and then I guess
It all falls back on you
To find out (find out)
What's the deal
And I guess you don't
Simplify
It's just, you had to
Had to take, and I know and I know
And then I guess it all falls back on you

There's a fine line between right and wrong
And I know we knew all along
Just how much I can half belong...and I know and I know
And then I find it all falls back on
On to me, to see, believe
And down onto you, we do, it's true
And I won't beg to stay, to leave, or to believe
A word you say, and then I guess
It all falls back on you
To find out (find out)
What's the deal
And I guess you don't
Simplify
It's just, you had to
Had to take, and I know and I know
And then I find it all falls back on you

'Cause I'm really up on this
'Cause I'm really up on this
Time to see these people
Where the hell do I get through to you?
No, I don't guess
I don't sacrifice
And I know
I don't realize
Just how much
I can idolize...and I know and I know
And then I find it falls back on
On to me, to see, believe
And down onto you, we do, it's true
And I won't beg to stay, to leave, or to believe
A word you say, and then I guess
It all falls back on you
To find out (find out)
What's the deal
And I guess you don't
Simplify
It's just, you try to hesitate
And then I find it all falls back on you
On you


7. SEA GROOVE

Take away from me
That what you just gave
Nothing left to heal
Nothing left to save
Given half a chance
Given what we've spent
I will not repay
I will not repent
I don't wanna leave
I don't wanna stay
Get away from me
Stay the hell away
And I will give up my mind
And I will give my way
And I will pluck out my eyes
Yes, I will feel my way
Yes, I will

Is there something wrong
With the way I feel?
I don't wanna beg
I don't have to steal
Let me prove myself
Let me earn your trust
Let me betray
The way that we discussed
I don't wanna thieve
I don't wanna snatch
Get away from me
Stay the hell away

And I will give up my mind
And I will give my way
And I will pluck out my eyes
Yes, I will feel my way
Yes, I will

In open hand, unopened gift
Her broken bones, her head won't lift
A decade since you've been gone
Mend the cracks and say so long
Say so long

Take away from me
That what you just gave
Nothing left to heal
Nothing left to save
Given half a chance
Given what we've spent
I will not repay
I will not repent

And I will give up my mind
And I will give my way
And I will pluck out my eyes
Yes, I will feel my way
I will

Yes, I will
Yes, I will
I will


8. FLY

Father, tell me something
Where do bad men go when they die?
Mother says you'll go there but
Wings for her and I and I don't mind
Because I have always wanted to learn to
Fly learn to
Fly learn to
Fly learn to
Fly

Brother, tell me something
If I take this, am I going to die?
And he says no, so then I figure what the hell
I'll try because it's my life
So light the match and you and I will

Fly learn to
Fly learn to
Fly learn to
Fly

Because I'm on my hands and knees, I've crawled eternity to beg forgiveness
And someday, I'll be there I swear to you, God, as my witness
For all the trusts I've broke and, let justice know, it's just that easy
Because I'm a liar, I conspired, I'm a liar

And father tell your son
It's not your gun and bloody hands
Don't hide behind locked doors
In dresser drawers those bullets wait to fly

Fly wait to
Fly wait to
Fly wait to
Fly

Because I'm on my hands and knees, I've crawled eternity to beg forgiveness
And someday, I'll be there I swear to you, God, as my witness
For all the trusts I've broke and, let justice know, it's just that easy
Because I'm a liar, I conspired, I'm a liar


9. JUST FOUR

I want to take his eyes out
Just for looking at you
Yes, I do
I want to take his hands off
Just for touching you
Yes, I do

And I want to rip his heart out
Just for hurting you
And I want to break his mind down
Yes, I do

And I want to make him
Regret life since the day he met you
Yes, I do
And I want to make him
Take back all that he took from you
Yes, I do

And I want to rip his heart out
Just for hurting you
And I want to break his mind down
Yes, I do
Yes, I do
Yes, I do

And I want to rip his heart out
Just for hurting you
And I want to break his mind down
Yes, I do
Yes, I do
Yes, I do
Yes, I do


10. LEFT

I saw the river, just pulled him down
I knew the man who hunted him down
We watched the river, take him away
Before he died, I could have sworn he said
Ooh, I am the only one
Ooh, I am the only one left
Ooh, I am the only one
Ooh, I am the only one
Ooh, I am the only one left

Tired and afraid lies a saddened man
Knelt beside him with head in hand
And escaped on a lonely breath
But before he died, I could have sworn he said

Ooh, I am the only one
Ooh, I am the only one left
Ooh, I am the only one
Ooh, I am the only one left
Who ever gave a damn about you
I am sorry
I am sorry
I was wrong
I was wrong
I've been wrong for way too long
I am sorry that you're gone
Yeah
Ooh, I am the only one
Ooh, I am the only one
Ooh, I am the only one
Ooh, I am the only one left
Who ever gave a damn about you
I am sorry
I am sorry
I was wrong
I was wrong
I've been wrong for way too long
I am sorry that you're gone


11. WINDOW SHOPPER

Forever's a lonely time and the dogs aren't always
Aren't always on my mind
'Cause I didn't free them
The scenery is burning me 'cause I'm still in it
So why don't you free me
'Cause it's not my business
What he's done to me
Control is all you really need
And I can't believe it
I can't believe that
You didn't see me

Passing glances fall on me
Like screams on deaf ears
They're all laughing at me
With encouraging cheers
What he's done to me
Control is all you really need
And I can't believe it
I can't believe that
You wouldn't free me

Why don't you see me?
Why don't you free me?
I can't believe that
You don't believe me

I guess I had it comin'
My fault for not runnin'
I just dressed too tempting
'Cause your heads fuckin' empty

And I can't believe it
I can't believe that you didn't see me


12. I DON’T HAVE

I don't live anymore
I don't love me this way
I don't have wings to fly
I don't have, gone away
I don't have anything
I don't need a space to breathe
I don't hide in sanctity
I don't need what you need
I don't have, have a space to

I don't claim to know just why
I don't try to pacify
I don't love me just yet
I don't care, gone away

This ones mine
This ones mine
This ones mine
All mine
Not this time I won't deny
This one's mine
All this time
Not this time I won't deny
All this time, yes it's mine

I don't have anything
I don't need the space to breathe
I don't hide in sanctity
I don't need what you need
I don't have... I don't have
I don't have... I don't have
I don't have anything
I don't need the space to breathe
I don't hide in sanctity
I don't need what you need

I don't have... I don't have
I don't have... I don't have
