Take It Away

I learned the hard way
That once a heart is broken it will never be the same
I learned the hard way
That sometimes love is just an empty game that people play
You swore you'd never lie
But you were lyin' while you were lyin' next to her
And then came lyin' next to me saying you loved me
You told me I was crazy to fear you'd ever stray
But it's you who turned out crazy when you threw my love away
So just
Take away the hurt and the rain
Take away the darkness and the pain
Take away the fear and these two years
I don't wanna feel it anymore
Take away the night and the air
Take away the memories we shared
Take away all the times I cried
Take away all the times you lied
All the times you lied
I learned the hard way
To never wear your heart upon your sleeve
I learned the hard way
No matter what they say one day they still can up and leave
You give your everything to your everything
And still they turn and throw it all away
For one drunken night in LA
And after all the times they've held you then left you on the floor
You know inside your heart can't even take it anymore
So just
Take away the hurt and the rain
Take away the darkness and the pain
Take away the fear and these two years
I don't wanna feel it anymore
Take away the night and the air
Take away the memories we shared
Take away all the times I cried
Take away all the times you lied
Take away the hope and the light
Take away my tears and all the fights
Take my bruised and broken heart
I don't wanna feel it anymore
Take away the times we laughed all day
Take all of the memories away
Take away all the times I tried
Take away all the times you lied
Was she worth it for one night
When you could have had a life full of love
Oh

Like You Did
02:29
|

|
If you decide to change your mind
And say you want me one more time
I will run
Like you did
If you say you miss me so
But you still want to let me go
That'll hurt me bad
Like you did
When you try to hide and tell me
That you don't have feelings for me at all
I don't believe you
And when you push and shove my heart away
And see the tears stream down my face
You don't understand
How those stupid words can make me cry
Like you did
Now when I'm in bed alone
Staring at my telephone
No one will call
Like you did
When I'm scared and when it's night
Wanting someone to hold me tight
No one will come
Like you did
When this storm has passed the weather will slowly start to get better
But for you it will always be sunny
But why should I have to get wet
When it's your heart that can't stand the pressure of love
Don't tell me you're still in love with her
It's those stupid words that break my heart in two
Like you did
And when I find somebody new
Who can love me, unlike you
They won't choose to walk away
They won't make the same mistakes
When I find somebody new they won't leave me crying
Like you did

Speak
02:30
|

|
My mind has been clouded
I've thought 'til I've cried
And I feel so surrounded and hurt by your lies
I gave you everything
I gave into you
Now I can't find the happiness that I once knew
Why don't you speak the words on your mind
Or the words from a song would also be fine
Why don't you speak
When you told me that you would
The damage is done
But why don't you speak
Your voice rings so clear
So straight through my mind
But your silence will crush me one day at a time
I'm counting the days since the moment of truth
I know I'm forgotten though I haven't forgotten you
Why don't you speak the words on your mind
Or the words from a song would also be fine
Why don't you speak
When you told me that you would
The damage is done
But why don't you speak
Why must I have to survive in this silence
When it's tearing my brain and it's ripping my heart
I gave all I had and the good turned to bad
And I don't know how I should start
Why don't you speak the words on your mind
Or the words from this song
To your heart from mine
Why don't you speak
When you told me that you would
The damage is done
But I want to speak the words on my mind
They flow out like music at just the right time
Why don't you speak
When you promised that you would
You took the voice left in me
And now I can't speak
And now I can't speak

Heartbreak in Hello
02:55
|
|||
|
How can a world that once had so much color
Turn dark and gray just in one blink of an eye
Your happiness gone
Without words of so-long
And you're trying so hard to get by
There's pain and betray and it won't go away
No matter how hard that you try
Why's it so hard to let go
To get up from the blow
You don't know anymore how to feel like before
Now your world's turned around
You get up off the ground
For you've learned and you know
The heartbreak in hello
You say that there's hurt and still fear from your past
Well darling you should know that I have a past too
The way that you know is to love and let go
Why won't you choose to push through
You threw me away
Said there's nothing to say
And there's nothing left I can do
Why's it so hard to let go
To get up from the blow
You don't know anymore how to feel like before
Now your world's turned around
You get up off the ground
For you've learned and you know
The heartbreak in hello
I don't wanna lose faith
But I can't keep on waiting
For the time you decide you can open your heart
Please don't walk away
When there's no words to say
Goodbye can be just as hard
Why's it so hard to let go
To get up from the blow
I don't know anymore how to feel like before
Now my world's turned around
I get up off the ground
For I've learned and I know
The heartbreak in hello
Oh, the heartbreak in hello
Oh
Oh, the heartbreak in hello
Hello

Crazy Boys
04:33

I know your game
I know the tricks you like to play
What's in your brain
That makes you think it's okay
Cause I know it's not okay
What gets you high
From makin' me cry all the time
What's in your mind
That makes you think it's alright
Cause now I know it's not alright
You think you own me
But you don't anymore
You can't control me
Like you've done the times before
I see the things you're doin'
And I bet you think you're smart
But I'm already left in ruins
There's nothing left to break of my heart
So the more you try you look a fool
And everybody knows what you're up to and
Only crazy boys break the rules
Was it so hard
To treat me like I deserve
And I see her
Just a matter of time 'fore she learns
And I know they'll always learn
Do you feel better sleepin' all alone
Tell me, were they worth it
Now that I am gone
I see right through you
Makin' me jealous just for fun
You used to hide me
'Cause I was not the only one
I thought I'd lost but what I've found
Is life feels so much better without you around, hey
Only crazy boys shoot you down when you're down
Because of you
I'll never let a crazy boy stick around

Recovery Road
04:50
|

|
The summer breeze whispers the rain says it all
I stare out the window and watch it fall
The bright light horizon is clear of the storm
But I stay inside where I'm safe and I'm warm
The cold road ahead I have walked down before
Recovery Road
The one place I need to go is
Recovery Road
It's a long way but I'll get there someday
Don't tell me not to run
Don't tell me not to fly
I'll get there at my own time to
Recovery Road, oh
The sweet touch of love seems so far from me now
It's funny the bridges I've burned somehow
I toss and I turn late at night while I dream
I'm caught in a river and floating upstream
I know there's one place that I always can go
Recovery Road
The one place I need to go is
Recovery Road
It's a long way but I'll get there someday
Don't tell me not to run
Don't tell me not to fly
I'll get there at my own time to
Recovery Road, oh
The pain from the past makes my thoughts not mine
I live in fear all of the time
And when I need faith it slips away
I hope this pain's not here to stay
Recovery Road
The one place I want to go is
Recovery Road
It's a long way but I'll get there someday
Don't tell me not to run
Don't tell me not to fly
I'll get there at my own time
Recovery Road, oh
Oh, Recovery Road
Oh, oh, oh
Recovery Road
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, Recovery Road
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, Recovery Road
Oh, oh, oh

The Break
03:09
|
|||
|
Hearts beat, hearts break
Love will grow and love will fade
Don't let it fade on me
Time flies, time slows
Without you time doesn't move
So lonely without you
Space can heal most wounded hearts
But I fear it might tear ours apart
My love
You say the words I start to shake
The tears come down like pouring rain
My love, my love
And now I'm left here in the cold
A pounding heart, a silent phone
My love
I'm dead inside without you here
I need you now can't calm my fears
My love, my love
Space heals, space harms
Space keeps me away from your arms
Why can't you hold me tight
One month to go
The time will pass but oh so slowly
You're still my love but you're not here
I'm terrified you say 'don't fear, my love'
I cannot lose my heart and soul
Do what you say, you're in control
My love, my love
I'll give you space to heal your heart
Choke back the tears
Block out the hurt
My love
Stop shaking now and stand up tall
The pain will pass
You won't feel small
Be strong enough to survive it all

Fly Away With Me
04:59
|
|||
|
'Have no fear' is such a silly phrase
We fear for our past, for our now
For our future, for things we can't save
And you
You fear for the worst
You'd rather give up and just close your eyes
So you don't risk getting hurt
Those nights
I spent next to you
I felt like a child again
Living and loving and laughing through you
But now
You've taken our wings
You don't want to try to discover the wondrous things it can bring
Why
Why don't you fly
Why don't you take a chance
And trust it's okay to let yourself feel
And I
I promise that we'll try
And we might slip and fall
Even if that's true we have something real
So why don't you fly
Fly
Please try
Please fly
The pain that comes from falling down
Can be worth it if you just pick your two feet up off the ground
And I know it's easy to say you don't feel
Even the smallest of wounds they can take our hearts so long to heal
But running away cannot save your heart pain from the past
And I know this inside from the memories that I hold
This I know
And when you're afraid
That's the time to be brave
And not let yourself lose something
That could be good for you
And good for me too
Nothing is worth it if you just give up and don't try
So fly
Fly
Please try
Please fly away with me

Black Hole
02:52
|
|||
|
Cried myself to sleep again last night
My eyes still puffy from our last fight
Will it make a difference now if I stand up to you somehow
I don't know inside how to be brave
But I know inside I need some saving
Help me out of my black hole
How I fell in here, I don't know
But my heart is telling me to stay
Because oddly this is where I'm safe
I know this pain has to end
Happiness is just around the bend
And he loves me, this I know
So I'm gonna stay in my black hole
I really hate the games you play
You break my heart because it's easy
You call me crazy, call me dumb
Say that I'm a maniac for fun
Well I just can't take it anymore
Yet I keep on coming back for more
Help me out of my black hole
How I fell in here, I don't know
But my heart is telling me to stay
Because oddly this is where I'm safe
I know this pain has to end
Happiness is just around the bend
And he loves me, this I know
So I'm gonna stay in my black hole
Don't wanna be alone, oh
The others tell me I must run
Now it's too late what have I done
I've made mistakes, have to be fair
He only does this cause he cares
Can't be alone, I need him there
I hold so tight he can't get air
I think of all the things I've done
And all the times that I was wrong
I love the view from my black hole
He cares and loves me, this I know
And I know I want to stay
Because he tells me I am safe

Faithful
03:09

There was a time that I needed you
Dreamt of you, fell for you
Missed you and kissed you
Got held in your arms
Then there's the times that you pushed me aside
And you yelled and I cried
And then you were gone
I remember those nights
I remember those fights
How you'd never say you were wrong
Now's not the time
Now's not the place
Today's not the day you decide that you know in your heart you can change
Cause I gave you your time
And I gave you your space
And the one thing I need that you never could be was be faithful
You're so good at the game
But I don't want to play
No, I just couldn't stay in that torture so long
I had so much faith and you took it away
Now I cry every day thinking back on it all
I'm broken inside
It's so hard to hide it
I'm too scared to love anymore
Now's not the time
Now's not the place
Today's not the day you decide that you know in your heart you can change
Cause I gave you your time
And I gave you your space
And the one thing I need that you never could be was be faithful

There's a voice in my head
That reminds me of the words you said
It rings so clear
While I am lying in my bed without you here
And even though the words are gone
The memory still lingers on and on
And on
There's a fear in my bones
That I will always be alone
It haunts me in my dreams
That I will never find a person who will keep me, oh
Oh
I hope you're happy that you got all that you wanted from me
And I will never give that love unless it's given to me back
I don't miss cryin'
I don't miss dyin'
For the taste of love so sweet
But I'm still breathing without you here
And now I'm standing on my own two feet
I can't recall the sound of your voice at all
It's gone from my head
The feeling of you in my bed
Or when you'd call
And even though the pain goes on
These nights alone don't feel so long
And this is your last song
I hope you're happy that you got all that you wanted from me
And I will never give that love unless it's given to me back
I don't miss cryin'
I don't miss dyin'
For the taste of love so sweet
But I'm still breathing without you here
And now I'm standing on my own two feet
My voice feels free
The farther that you are from me
But I feel cursed
That I will always end up hurt
Or even worse, alone
Oh
