Five Word Letter

You call me senseless when you‘re the one
who wants to fall in love with everyone
It’s all so pointless, all said and done
like trying to point me with an empty gun
I looked for bullets but there were none
you dug much deeper and you found one
behind emotions and broken hearts
right where the mind stops, that evil starts
It’s not the first time
won’t be the last one
my heart is open wide
wish I could read her mind
can’t tell you wrong from right
Something is burning, I can smell the smoke
fuel to the fire and I’m about to choke
we’ve come to this point of no return
don’t try to put it out, just let it burn
I looked for reasons but there were none
I dug much deeper and I found one
behind emotions and broken hearts
right where the mind stops, that evil starts
It’s not the first time
won’t be the last one
my heart is open wide
wish I could read her mind
can’t tell you wrong from right
It’s not the first time
won’t be the last one
my heart is open wide
got nothing left to hide
this story has one side
Sometimes it’s better to let it go and take the fall
A five word letter, don’t pretend you know it all

The Mouse

So you bit the bullet
swallowed the bitter pill
got everything you wished for
how does it make you feel
Was it something you always wanted
or something people do
is there anything left in you
except for flesh and bones?
I will rip your heart out just to see if I can make you feel
your dreams so common that you don’t deserve to make them real
show me your problems I will show how your wounds will heal
instead of trying to untie I would rather cut the knot
Who are you to judge me?
Who are you to say?”
Honestly I’m no one
but are you happy today
Just like the mouse who found the cheese
but couldn’t see the trap
now all you have is your midday nap
and your Mercedes’ keys
I will rip your heart out just to see if I can make you feel
your dreams so common that you don’t deserve to make them real
show me your problems I will show how your wounds will heal
instead of trying to untie I would rather cut the knot

Walk Right Through
04:38

Once upon a time I had three friends, one cat, one dad, one mom
They all knew the best for me and criticize what I ‘ve become
My friends don’t like my girlfriend as if “she is no good for you” they say
Mom and dad wanted a doctor so they watched me throw my life away
I wanna live my life
I ‘m slowly dying inside
Running out of patience nothing left to prove
My head is running wild but I can’t move
you think you know it all telling me what to do
there’s a big wall ahead I guess I ‘ll walk right through
I have had enough of them so I thought what I want to be
one thing’s for sure, thinks have to change, cause this is you in me not me
so I dropped out of college, moved out and in the unemployment line
I barely pull it through now, but at Ieast I know the choice is mine
I wanna live my life
won’t let you all decide
Running out of patience nothing left to prove
My head is running wild but I can’t move
you think you know it all telling me what to do
there’s a big wall ahead I guess I ‘ll walk right through

More Than Meets The Eye

There is more to this than meets the eye
I never understood the reason why
some things are wrong while others right
I think I might be losing it again
Now I begin to doubt what I have seen
Am I normal, but what does normal mean?
I am the only one who stares at the sun
and now I ‘m done, I just don’t care
My head against the wall
get dizzy and I fall
laying flat on the floor
been there before
There is more to this than meets the eye
it’s so convenient to live inside a lie
you ‘re all the same, I am insane
I feel no pain, it’s all a game after all
My head against the wall
get dizzy and I fall
laying flat on the floor
been there before

Whole

Here I am now trying to right the wrong
just to get a piece of me that’s gone
all I want is to be with you
god I hate to be alone
It’s raining outside
better stay inside
All I want is to have my piece of mind
been a while now since my tears have dried
you turned the lights off and its cold and dark
I would die to have you back
It’s a jungle out there
baby I wouldn’t dare
I wonder now how many shots do I get
cause I think I ‘ve wasted (them) all
Forced all my life to forgive and forget
I don’t need no other half I ‘m whole
proud before the fall
I would give up all my dreams for you
cause I know the thing we have is true
now I ‘m lonely feeling blue
what am I supposed to do?
It’s a jungle out there
I wouldn’t dare
So here I am now trying to right the wrong
though I know hope is dead and gone
all I want is to be with you
god I hate to be alone
It’s raining outside
better stay inside
I wonder now how many shots do I get
cause I think I‘ve wasted (them) all
Forced all my life to forgive and forget
I don’t need no other half I ‘m whole
proud before the fall
Baby don’t we all
hate to be alone?

Naive
03:50
|

It makes you feel so proud
Hands in the sky, head down
You are convinced whatever comes around, goes around
You need to be heard out
You want to have no doubt
just so you know, your cries for help will fall on deaf ears
You’re chasing ghosts at noon
I tried to tell but you didn’t listen
So naïve you‘d fall for anything
as long as it makes you feel much better
Feed off the lies they tell you
pray for a seat on air
I hope I qualify for hell, cause all my friends are there
jesus won’t care for me
mary won’t care for you
we ‘re on our own, get used to it, cause this ride is one-way
You’re chasing ghosts at noon
I tried to tell but you didn’t listen
So naïve you‘d fall for anything
as long as it makes you feel much better
You’re chasing ghosts at noon
I tried to tell but you didn’t listen
All alone who’s gonna save you now
I know it seems unfair but that’s what life is
