In this farewell
There’s no blood
There’s no alibi
Cause I’ve drawn regret
From the truth
Of a thousand lies
So let mercy come
And wash away
What I’ve done
I’ll face myself
To cross out what I’ve become
Erase myself
And let go of what I’ve done
Put to rest
What you thought of me
While I clean this slate
With the hands
Of uncertainty
So let mercy come
And wash away
What I’ve done
I’ll face myself
To cross out what I’ve become
Erase myself
And let go of what I’ve done
For what I’ve done
I’ll start again
And whatever pain may come
Today this ends
I’m forgiving what I’ve done
I’ll face myself
To cross out what …

I remembered black skies
The lightning all around me
I remembered each flash
As time began to blur
Like a startling sign
That fate had finally found me
And your voice was all I heard
that I get what I deserve
So give me reason
To prove me wrong
To wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross the distance in your eyes
Give me reason
To fill this hole
Connect the space between
Let it be enough to reach the truth that lies
Across this new divide
There was nothing in sight
But memories left abandoned
There was nowhere to hide
The ashes fell like snow
And the ground caved …

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’m done here
So if you’re asking me I want you to know
[Chorus]
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
Don’t be afraid
I’ve taking 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 …

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
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on, but didn’t even know
Wasted it all just to watch you go
I kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart
What …

I close both locks below the window
I close both blinds and turn away
Sometimes solutions aren’t so simple
Sometimes goodbye’s the only way
[Chorus]
And the sun will set for you
The sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in grey
And the sun will set for you
In cards and flowers on your window
Your friends all plead for you to stay
Sometimes beginnings aren’t so simple
Sometimes goodbye’s the only way
[Chorus]
And the sun will set for you
The sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in grey
And …

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 convinced that there’s just too much pressure to take)
I’ve felt this way before
So insecure
Chorus
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 …

It doesn’t pay to try,
All the smart boys know why,
It doesn’t mean, I didn’t try,
I just never know, why.
It’s isn’t ’cause I’m all alone
Oh, baby, you’re not home.
And when I’m home
Big deal, I’m still alone.
It’s so restless, I am,
Beat my head against a pole
Try to knock some sense, down ‘side my bones.
And even though it don’t show,
Those guys are so old.
Can’t put your arms around a memory,
Can’t put your arms around a memory,
Can’t put your arms around a memory.
Don’t try
Don’t try
You’re just a basket case.
And you got no name.
Could you …

I’m a cold heartbreaker
Fit ta burn
And I’ll rip your heart in two
And I’ll leave you lyin on the bed
I’ll be out the door
Before you wake
Nothin new ta you
Cause I think we’ve seen that movie too..
(chorus)
Cause you could be mine
But you’re way out of line
With your bitch slap rappin and your cocaine tongue
You get nothin done
I said you could be mine..
(musical interlude)
Now holidays come
And then they go
Nothin new to gain
Collect another memory..
When I come home
Late at night
Don’t ask me where I’ve been
Just count your stars I’m home again…
(chorus)
You could be mine
(you …

Yesterday, There was so many things
I was never told
Now that I’m startin’ to learn
I feel I’m growing old
‘Cause yesterday’s got nothin’ for me
Old pictures that I’ll always see
Some things could be better
In my book of memories
Prayers in my pocket
And no hand in destiny
I’ll keep on movin’ along
With no time to plant my feet
‘Cause yesterday’s got nothin’ for me
Old pictures that I’ll always see
Some things could be better
If we’d all just let them be
Yesterday’s got nothin’ for me
Yesterday’s got nothin’ for me
Got nothin’ for me
Yesterday, There was so many things
I was …

I tried so hard just to get through to you
But your head’s so far
From the realness of truth
Was it just a come on in the dark
Wasn’t meant to last long
I think you’ve worn your welcome honey
I’ll just see you along as I sing you this song
Time can pass slowly,
Things always change
You day’s been numbered
And I’ve read your last page
You was just a temporary lover
Honey you ain’t the first
Lots of others came before you woman
Said but you been the worst
Sa’ you been the worst
So goodbye to you girl
So long, farewell
I can’t …
