Alive 02:14
Please don’t go, baby, don’t go home I don’t ever want to go it alone Let’s just fill the gas, and never look back We can drive until we’re broke And when we’ve had enough we won’t stop I want to feel like I’m on top Feel the wind by our side, put the world behind Here we come, ready or not It’s just the only way we’ll win I feel the world closing in And if we turn back now, then we can forget about A second chance to begin Just another hop to be saved Always praying for the rain Watch it pour again, and never end Let’s just wash this world away When was the last time you felt alive? When was the last time you felt alive? When was the last time you felt alive? I wonder… really alive When was the last time you felt alive? I wonder… really alive When was the last time you felt alive? I wonder… really alive When was the last time you felt alive… inside?

Do you believe the lies he tells you, is it just what you want to hear? He says, I’ll always be a part of you, as long as you are near Someday, right, until then, all we’ve got is time Well you’ve reached this endless fork out in the road Either way you choose won’t show you what you want to know If you love something should you really let it go? Does absence really make the heart grow stronger, or just out of control? Do you believe the useless hype, is there hope for human kind? Don’t care if a consequence is there, if it’s easy then it’s right Someday, right, until then, all we’ve got is time Well you’ve reached this endless fork out in the road Either way you choose won’t show you what you want to know If you love something should you really let it go? Does absence really make the heart grow stronger, or just out of control? Does this really mean the end, where’s the tunnel, where’s the light? Never had time to understand, but we'll still put up a fight.

80 MPH 04:32
Have you ever seen someone so ugly as the one in the mirror She’s looking for a better reason, now it’s here ‘Cause everyone’s saying “Boy, yeah, you’d better get with her.” But they don’t know just what she’s like, yeah, you know the big picture She’s going eighty miles an hour, but in slow motion She’s got eyes, but she’s lost where she’s goin’ She’s going eighty miles an hour, but in slow motion She’s got eyes, but she’s lost where she’s goin’ Is motivation missing, no, she just don’t really care With everybody weighing her down, what’s the price that’s fair? It’s hard to be satisfied when there’s always more How can she make this life (life) seem like a chore? She’s going eighty miles an hour, but in slow motion She’s got eyes, but she’s lost where she’s goin’ (Ahh..) Have you ever seen a greater conflict between you and yourself? Until I lost my head, you know I’ll never tell ‘Cause she helped me, I know, she proved me wrong And she won’t come back until I’m gone But I’ll never leave until you see This thing that you’ve done to me She’s going eighty miles an hour, but in slow motion She’s got eyes, but she’s lost where she’s goin’ She’s going eighty miles an hour, but in slow motion She’s got eyes, but she’s lost where she’s goin’

Go where you want to, see the things you have to Go where you want to, see the things you have to Go where you want to, see the things you have to Go where you want to, see the things you have to see Go where you want to, see the things you have to Go where you want to, see the things you have to see

Do you notice, do you feel a little pain Can you focus, I can’t stand it when you’re away Will you hold it, will you keep your heart with mine There’s a place in here, but I can’t imagine a world outside And I know I know it’s such a shame When we’ve said the words that we can say Why should I say goodbye? Why do I need to let go? How could I watch this die? How could I lose control? What’s the use then, what’s the use in fighting more When we’ll never know, what the hell we’re fighting for You could go there, you could say at least we tried But I’ll never, go down without a fight And I know it feels so far away But you’ll always have a place that’s safe Why should I say goodbye? Why do I need to let go? How could I watch this die? How could I lose control? And I know I know it’s such a shame When we’ve said the words that we can say But you’ll notice, when I am not around And I know it feels so far away But you’ll always have a place that’s safe But trust me, we can burn this to the ground We can burn this to the ground Why should I say goodbye? Why do I need to let go? How could I watch this die? How could I lose control?

Trapped 03:21
I think the timing is right for some outside perspective To keep the wheels aligned and in the right direction Wouldn’t it be nice to reach a point of perfection But the world won’t think twice about a life of rejection When you take a breath you are gonna choke You say that I don’t know anything I don’t know I can’t even recognize your face in the line I don’t really think you’re there, cuz you’re trapped inside Trapped inside Straight set free from the waves of regret When your heart’s turned stone and that’s your best bet You lost a live you never even realized you had It doesn’t mean anything when you say you lost that I just want to get that song out of my head Just because we’re breathing doesn’t mean we’re breaking bread But it doesn’t really matter cuz it’s just life We can still see it in you, cuz it’s trapped inside Yo bring it on back Trapped inside When you take a breath you are gonna choke You say that I don’t know anything I don’t know I can’t even recognize your face in the line I don’t really think you’re there, cuz you’re trapped inside Trapped inside I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know anything
7.
you don’t need a plan if you wanna get down with me yeah we all make a common mistake, you just gotta keep it clean but still we’ll do what we like, yeah we’ll do what we please another night got you down on your knees just watch your girl cuz she’ll be coming round looking for me cuz i know what she needs aw i said it before but you never never listen to me always back for more begging (me) begging me please just because it feels right and because it feels free yeah one lover’s strife is another’s release just watch your girl cuz she’ll be coming round looking for me cuz i know what she needs one thing you’ve got to know, this shit is all for show you’ve got a boyfriend “no”, you’ve got to, you’ve got to
8.
Giving Up 03:21
you said it once before but i’ll say it all and then we’ve done this once now so i know it’s not pretend just because it’s from the start doesn’t mean we’ll find the end we’ll take this up and down, and round and round again we’ve said twice before and now you’re asking when could you speak a bit louder cuz i’m not taking the hint i’m not the kind of guy who lives a life of sin but when i’m with you girl i can’t help but dive right in Is there space now baby, is there room for you and me Make some time and maybe, I’ll show you how to breathe can you feel where i’m coming from only one, one solution you can’t breathe without getting enough guess it means that we’re back to giving up Is there space now baby, is there room for you and me Make some time and maybe, I’ll show you how to breathe can you feel where i’m coming from only one, one solution you can’t breathe without getting enough guess it means that we’re back to giving up
9.
when you lay your head down on it do you see that bed you’ve made? but you can’t seem to get up from it do you ever feel ashamed? when you notice it always lingers do you bend your knee and pray? it’s so easy to point the finger will it ever fade away? How do we keep our minds from worry How do we teach our kids to sleep How do we rest our heads ’til morning Is this the world for you and me? How do we say we’ll keep on fighting How do we plan to keep the peace How do we know we’re all united This is the world for you and me when you don’t have an answer do you find one anyway at least you can hold your head up if you only had a brain when the sun isn’t shining when it’s covered by the gray not a cloud in sight for miles can we still fly away? can we still fly away? How do we keep our minds from worry How do we teach our kids to sleep How do we rest our heads ’til morning Is this the world for you and me? How do we say we’ll keep on fighting How do we plan to keep the peace How do we know we’re all united This is the world for you and me Will we find our way back down? Will we find our way back down? Will we get off of this cloud? Will we find our way back down?
10.
Every once in a while I’ll sit and wonder why I’m in this crowd We’ve got this incredible free will but I don’t think we should be allowed To have such beautiful choices, when we’ll only choose wrong Before you know, everything we love will all be gone I have no fear of dying now I have no fear of dying I have no fear of dying now Cuz I’m already alone I’m just another torn out page in this never-ending book You read me once before, but never gave another look If you ever left, it wouldn’t be tearing out a page If you ever left, it’d be like taking the whole book away I have no fear of dying now I have no fear of dying I have no fear of dying now Cuz I’m already alone I can try to talk to you, but I’d rather talk to the mirror I don’t have to waste my breath just wondering why I’m here I have no fear of dying now I have no fear of dying I have no fear of dying now Cuz I’m already alone
