I can only speculate what goes on behind closed doors Daddy’s little girl shedding tears on her pillow Constantly wanting not to live anymore Asking me to take her away I don’t know what to do when she jumps in my arms I know it’s hard to hold her still, though When all she wants to do is drive away real far I know I’m her escape So don’t you cry I’ll wipe away those tears I’m always here to comfort you Don’t you ever fear I know it’s hard to go through what you go through You’ll always have my shoulder as long as I have you Wake up to the sound of a ringing phone Look at the clock and it reads 3 a.m. Pick up the phone she’s on the other line Weeping yet again So don’t you cry I’ll wipe away those tears I’m always here to comfort you Don’t you ever fear I know it’s hard to go through what you go through You’ll always have my shoulder as long as I have you You ran away from all the pain The pain of life at home You ran away from even me I had to let you go So don’t you cry I’ll wipe away those tears I’m always here to comfort you Don’t you ever fear I know it’s hard to go through what you go through You’ll always have my shoulder as long as I have you I have you I have you I have you I had you

I wish that your perfection is in connection with me Know that your selection, my resurrection, my everything Shied by my priorities; longing conformity Sentenced by me Constricting policies Time is closing in on me Wishful thinking Wishful thinking Wishful thinking Wish distance was different Time can’t be overcome It’s reality Tide held down by circumstance Resisting any chance I see Dousing immaturity of longing purity Indeed Constricting policies Time is closing in on me Wishful thinking Wishful thinking Wishful thinking Wait, watch, willingly Constricting policies Time is closing in on me Wishful thinking Wishful thinking Wishful thinking Wishful thinking Wishful thinking

You 03:12
You said that things would never change You said that they’d always be that way You said that we’d never be apart You said that from the start You lied You lied to me You lied and now I clearly see what you’ve done to me You said things that I believed You made one big fool of me You will see what I have seen You will know You will know We enjoyed good times we had It seemed like it would always last But you found someone better; you left me You never cared about anything You lied You lied to me You lied and now I clearly see what you’ve done to me You said things that I believed You made one big fool of me You will see what I have seen You will know You will know You lied You lied It’s over now It’ll happen again You’re gone for now But you’ll be back in the end You’ll say things that you’ll believe You’ll look like the fool to me You will see what I have seen You will know You will know

I picked you up at 8 Your parents let you stay out late I can’t forget this night I looked into your eyes They caught me surprise Please don’t forget me I shared the popcorn with you Holding hands through previews I could feel your heart beat Driving out to Denny’s Spending my last pennies You’re worth more, so much more I don’t want to say goodbye I don’t want to say goodbye to tonight Dropping you off at your doorstep Near brings me tears Near brings regret So long, goodbye Have a safe flight Please sleep tonight Please always write I don’t want to say goodbye I don’t want to say goodbye to tonight I don’t want to say goodbye I don’t want to say goodbye to tonight

Hindsight lies right White light fades into night That night, that night, that night Proving me wrong Proving me, your words are proving me wrong Proving me, sorrow sings wonderful songs Proving me, afraid of the truth all along Proving me wrong How could I not go? How could I not know? Two years wasted Who cares what might have been? Everyone’s sobbing me Now I see, now I see You Proving me wrong Proving me, your words are proving me wrong Proving me, sorrow sings wonderful songs Proving me, afraid of the truth all along Proving me wrong How could I not go? How could I not know? Far away, far away, far away, far away How could I not go (far away) How could I not know (far away) How could I not go (far away) How could I not know (far away)

He pointed fingers, she blamed herself A heated shouting match said all he felt She stormed out crying, he said goodbye Got in her car and she began to drive It’s too late for anything You left go everything Stuck there wondering what she felt The shards are caved in, the road crimson and cold He sat there thinking of all that he told She lay there lifeless, last feeling all alone Ten miles away he sat at home It’s too late for anything You left go everything Stuck there wondering what she felt His conscience wavering His words were angering She exits Avery one last time It’s too late for anything You left go everything Stuck there wondering what she felt His conscience wavering His words were angering She exits Avery one last time It’s too late for anything You left go everything Stuck there wondering what she felt His conscience wavering His words were angering She exits Avery one last time

Dreams have gone awry You know that I Could never find Please tell me why We fell apart You broke my heart Where did it start? Why did you/we part? It helps to think that you’re as lonely as me It helps to believe that you’re not the one for me Lindsay, please tell me the reason that we cannot be Tell me why it was that you broke up with me How could you walk out my door so easily? Thought we’d last so long and now you’re gone, I see Please tell me the reason that we cannot be Tell me why it was that you broke up with me How could you walk out my door so easily? Thought we’d last so long and now you’re gone Now what can I do? It’s sad, but true I’ll start anew ‘cause I’ve lost you You’ve ruined me Maybe I’ll see Why this could be Imperfectly It helps to think that you’re as lonely as me It helps to believe that you’re not the one for me Lindsay, please tell me the reason that we cannot be Tell me why it was that you broke up with me How could you walk out my door so easily? Thought we’d last so long and now you’re gone, I see Please tell me the reason that we cannot be Tell me why it was that you broke up with me How could you walk out my door so easily? Thought we’d last so long and now you’re gone Lindsay, please tell me the reason that we cannot be Tell me why it was that you broke up with me How could you walk out my door so easily? Thought we’d last so long and now you’re gone, I see Please tell me the reason that we cannot be Tell me why it was that you broke up with me How could you walk out my door so easily? Thought we’d last so long and now you’re gone

Lilac 03:04
I miss the tender sound of silence when I held you in my arms The scent of us so beautiful, like a lilac in the fall The shadow of two that was once won by a deceiver in disguise It seems to near in the distance to these naked eyes Inconsistencies Lies I’ve told Warm breath on my neck Memories I hold Oh, so close to me Trust betrayed Everything once had, twice frayed Reminders in every breath beheld of a pain once caused The bliss was so spectacular, so foolish and so far Wronged you were by immature, desertion was so wise Perfection lost on constants, lies lies lies Longing legacies Layered loss Battered and blaming me Truth ‘tis tossed Once so close to me Trust betrayed Everything I had, I frayed The blame is one me

I lost the day Can’t grasp the pain Innocence in vain The light begins to wane The stars are dead tonight Dispelled and contrite The dust has filled the night air It’s tragedy in despair So hard to stay You lead the way The path is hard to follow The sights are shrouded in sorrow Hardened by my wrongs Falling faster, falling farther Faith is lost into Shattered dreams where lives are broken Broken in two Crowded hallways are always the wrong way Take the long way, instead If anything, regret Shades of evermore Lost in nevermore Slow brake for nothing The road is closed ahead Awaking in nothingness Longing indifference Hardened by my wrongs Falling faster, falling farther Faith is lost into Shattered dreams where lives are broken Broken in two Nothing is right You knew more than before Lost insight Of my mind, time gone by Faith is fading Don’t look away Fond souls dying in mine

Take me tonight Take me this time Take me away You make everything fine We’ll touch the sky tonight Maybe this time You’ll take me away You make everything alright I can’t see inside of me I can’t breath, I’m suffocating I can’t believe in spite of everything Everything we see is suddenly changing Show me tonight Show me this time Take me away I was wrong and you were right You’ll leave me tonight Leave me for the last time You’ll go away My heart has lost the fight I can’t see in spite of me I can’t breath, I’m suffocating I can’t believe in spite of everything Everything we see is suddenly changing I fell tonight Saw you for the last time You drove away Now I’m waiting for brakelights Waiting for brakelights Waiting for brakelights Waiting for brakelights Waiting for brakelights Waiting for you to return to me Waiting for you tonight Waiting for you to turn around Waiting for you forever Now I’m sitting here alone alone Wondering where you went, wondering where I went wrong I can’t see inside of me I cannot breathe I’m suffocating Waiting for you to turn around Waiting for you tonight Waiting for you to return to me Waiting for you forever

You were the one that said you cared You were the one that left me there Now I can see what’s in your eyes Now I can see all those lies Now you’re gone, so why do I try? You can’t see what’s in my eyes You can’t read what’s on my mind Leaving you was so hard Reasons locked within my heart You deserve more from me From me From me From me You the world was made for us You said there’s no one else you trust All those times I was there, How can you say that I don’t care? Now you’re gone, what’s left to share? Standing face to face Collision course ahead we chase Putting hearts upon that line Separate lives will take some time Wish the best for us from now Until the end, goodbye Goodbye Goodbye Goodbye Goodbye Goodbye
