Les paroles


1. OUTTA HAND

They say that you want what you can't have
but I take it to heart, the thought it drives me mad
At night it gets worse
Follow suit to the things that make so
I'm told that you get what you deserve
forgot what I learned
Lost time, outta hand
Follow suit to the things that let me go

[Chorus]
Heavy breathing, I'm staring at the ceiling
the blood is not returning to my toes or to my finger tips
and now they're rushing me, everyone is hushing me
Telling stories best kept behind these lips
But when the walls start to cave in
the tally marks that I left will represent
all the days that I spent wondering

They call it karma but it's something that I never wanted
to take the time to fully understand
at night it gets worse, follow suit to the things that make me so

[Chorus]

There's ground beneath my feet but somehow I keep sinking
There's air inside my chest but I am barely breathing
I need a sedative but I can't swallow it, so I crush it up

[Chorus]


2. LIKE I CARE

Am I doing something wrong by writing all these songs about how much I hate you ?
Am I making things to hard? No not inside your pants, I'm talking everyday life mistakes I make on purpose

[Chorus]
I'm a bitch and I admit
I can't quit there are no limit
How do you expect me to be after all that I've seen of your fucked up way of loving me
To you it sounds pathetic, but for months I've been avoiding it
Give me a reason to act like I care

Did I fall and hit my head ? Please tell me that I'm hearing things closer to the edge
Did I not make myself clear when reminding you I'm standing here ?
Standing here's not the same as it used to be, just the same old story

[Chorus]

You don't know and you don't need to
That's what you told me along time ago
I fucking hope so


3. OPEN ENDED

Staying home never sounded so good
All the things that I know I never could
Say what I wanted, what I'm thinking
Drown it out with whatever I am drinking
And by the end of the night I will have second guessed myself

[Chorus]
I never wanted to be my own worst enemy
Saw it happen to my friends first
Then I followed shortly
we'll leave it open ended
Cause we're on the road to destruction
And from where I'm standing I can tell that it's not my destination

I don't know what to believe in anymore
When everyone is faking
I'm over analyzing, taking the liberty of self prescribing
I can't get around what I'm feeling,
In the end I throw my hands up to the ceiling

[Chorus]


4. BURIED

Took a trip to the top of the hill
You won't believe what I found
Somebody's deepest, darkest secrets buried in the ground
Skeletons and lots of them are buried underneath
And if you don't believe me look at all the cobwebs and the teeth

[Chorus]
My eyes are closing my brains exploding
I can't keep up with the lack of knowing the things that lay below me as I try to leave
Passage ways to the unknown my mind goes places I don't wanna go
I'll be the one to see the fucked up shit in front of me

In the darkest hour of the night they choose not to hide from me
I can see the alcohol they drink as it drains through ribs and in between
What's real ? What's true ? The answer is lost
What's fake ? What's wrong ? What we came across
And if you don't believe me listen in the dark for screams

[Chorus]

Buried
What we can't see


5. STUCK ON REPEAT

I can feel sucking me down, I'm stuck on repeat in this down
And in this 15 mile radius I'll take a stab at, I'll predict
Where they'll be, who they're with
When I'm gone, what I'll forget
Cause in the end I'll probably do it again
And if I don't get out now, then I don't know how I can

[Chorus]
I'm turing pages and multi-tasking
I'm burning bridges and watching reactions
Feeling oh so ill from repetition
I won't look back
Sick to my stomach, and with it I'm fed up
Fell and hit the deck, now I've had enough
Although history proves that if I don't get out now I'm stuck

I can hear it drowning me out
This record keeps spinning around
And in our 35 minute set we'll sing our hearts out we've got no regrets
Leaving home, we don't belong
On our own this can't go wrong
Cause on the real now it's time to peace out
We're gonna leave here but first let me finish my beer

[Chorus]

Shit out of luck

[Chorus]


6. TO THE BONE

Biting down on my arm so long I think my teeth might have reached the bone
Pinching myself so hard I can tell this one's gonna leave a fatty scar
Tongue is twisted so bad I'm not sure it will ever come undone
Something along the lines of you've never heard of

[Chorus]
I'm not saying anything anymore
Before I speak I watch my words fall to the floor
Pick them up and I brush them off, hose them down 'till There really isn't anything left
To the bone is how deep it goes
Hair on the back of my neck grows
Frozen
Think it's time to throw the towel in
At the core is where it grows, where it ends up hell if I know
Mystery
Better left not solving
History
Re-written and I'm forgotten

Tell-tale heart under floor boards still beating hard
Pumping louder no way to ignore the sound
Don't care what they say, cause I'll still do it anyway
With nowhere to go I'll sit down turn the stereo up
