All alone In my own decision Just a stone Of my own decision What you want is what you cannot have And I remember all those things you had said Still I'm alone With my own decision I never felt a thing Till you had let me in And if told you I'd never leave Could you forgive me when I let go and know you're there Back and forth On the meaning beside you That you know It's the only thing that scares you All you wish is what you cannot save The past remembers what you want and gave Back and forth It's the only thing that scares you I never felt a thing Till you had let me in And if told you I'd never leave Could you forgive me when I let go and know you're there What you want is what you cannot have And I remember all those things you had said Just a stone Of my own decision All alone With my own decision In my own decision

"Mission" 03:27
Outside a screaming car destroys the silence that was only ours Another bar, with another falling sound So slams the door and we go to the night but I wish for the day You wouldn't stay, so we head into downtown Let's not go back to Mission Let's not go there at all Let's not go back to Mission The party starts, but by the time we show I know we've gone too far In the car, another girl slams her head Somebody speaks out in a haze, they say that I do not belong She sings a song, and I'm wishing I was dead Let's not go back to Mission Let's not go there at all Let's not go back to Mission Sick with a fit of rage we stumble through the dark outside your door The liquor store, and you've lost your keys again Days turn to weeks and I have lost my senses, I am unafraid Another day, and I know that its the end Let's not go back to Mission Let's not go there at all Let's not go back to Mission

I am a reason Misplaced, out of touch Carried outside, always They don't mean much I am beneath questions Answers are mine I crawl through hours And dissolve in time You once were mine I'll be there for you Saved from what they put you through I've made up my mind Days, I've wasted time Memories I'm hopeless to Place through my days For all the people we knew, Friends we made I am a secret you've Kept all along Carried through nights when You knew I was wrong You've suffered too long I'll be there for you Saved from what they put you through I've made up my mind Days, I've wasted time Sorrows adrift In the age of desire Course through the veins of A beauty inspired There is no way back Across my front lawn So rings the bells of a Girl before dawn She's moving on... You are the reason I've Crossed out of time Waking reminds me All I've left behind.

If I feel lonely, would you take my hand You slip through my fingers, and fall out like sand Someone to wish for, someone to care Another disaster, we're still unprepared. A little bit higher Reaching for Little bit higher Just once more Into a city, they turned out the lights The moon hanging over, bathing you white Running in circles, and chasing the stars Seconds of sirens, and blaring of cars A little bit higher Reaching for Little bit higher Just once more Dreams of a lover, and memories of you Trying to change all that I ever knew Switching the time out, and ready for bed To wade in the pool of everything that I've said A little bit higher Reaching for Little bit higher Just once more

Words resolve in company Defined in mind, they're buried in A world devoid of self-esteem The day I would begin Spin waking, holes in the eyes of a world in bed Hands shaking, crumble in what I know but never said A second time to blow off steam The heads all read the news aloud A narrow mind, they're burning clean The day I was so proud Remind me what it was I walked out of on the way Store bought dreams, cooked in a summer blind and thrown away So it begins that I always feel strange Never remind me what I wouldn't change In a transition, a ghost on its way Steps in a corner, all I wanted to say Erasing, burned in the back of roads we fell down on It won't seem easy to fix notions now that we're gone Wait behind the walls, they sing Arrest the feelings that you hold I want to know what silence brings The day I grew so old

"Summer '08" 06:05
Summer has come here again Burning in a wave Hell that I have come to see Time that I couldn't save Standing next to me The look she gave to me Another shift ends Going home Wait around and Find myself alone The clock ticking And she's waiting just for me Night moving And it's gone Walking Panorama To see my best friend TV days of long ago I wish that it would never end Staring at the sea The time we went to see Another show done One to go Time has run thin But I hate to know When Fall brings me A place I want to leave Remembering And it's gone Outside where I learned to breathe The moon hangs overhead Crashing with an urgency When I thought that I was dead Standing at the scene The looks they gave to me Just a wish and All unchanged Not for wanting My hands' so strange A voice yelling And pulled me out of the way Head shaking And its gone A voice yelling And pulled me out of the way Head shaking And its gone...

Stretching my hand 'Cause I'm hoping to find Hoping to hide you In parts of my mind Painful, I love you Heart swelling blind Bones seared and blackened Falling behind Mouth of a cynic Hands of a scribe Eyes of an innocent Leading a tribe Eyes of an innocent Leading a tribe Light in the tunnel drowned out The tide comes in, we go down Hope in the future dashed now Belief in its worth fades out Stretching my hand out 'Cause I hope to find you And then hide you In parts of my mind It's so painful but I Know it's like you Bones seared and blackened Falling behind Mouth of a cynic Hands of a scribe Eyes of an innocent Leading a tribe Eyes of an innocent Leading a tribe Light in the tunnel drowned out The tide comes in, we go down Hope in the future dashed now Belief in its worth fades out

Lost, snowed out and hungry Years, here it all looks the same I have dreams of that warmer place, and A feast for all in my name Somebody asked me why Why, I even care to try They know all of my fears, and There is no place to hide Melt, out in the high noon Burns, skies dead and black within They hold lovers I once held so strong And break, it's snowing again Somebody asked me why Why, I even care to try They know all of my fears, and There is no place to hide There is no shade in here...

Time sinks in my eyes Ready to die for your love I cannot deny you're mine You're not enough All the times I would see you smile You're on your way back down here a while Knocking out through the walls, pushing out through them all Caved inside your head Rage, open the ceiling up Washing me out We've tired all the times when, No promise we can't change them I'll survive, but could you save yourself? And them all from me I can't sleep You're the only one who dreams The end of everything Crawl inside your room Setting the moon inside of your eyes Lips, your fingertips move in To silence your cries I'm inside The walls are mine Behind the hour Of all you wished for Escape from nothing's past, more I will take all they give to you In your dreams, I'm forever there Hiding in the corner of the day Eyes that sympathize Ready to die for my love Dreams silence your screaming mind Of your last breath I forget all the times when Pictures were only pieces Of a day that's lost and suffered Outside of a screen.

When I was younger I wasted my days When I got older I never could say Your love, your love won't change Seconds erased and nobody knows Where have the days gone and where will we go? Your love, your love won't change Your love, your love won't change A time old decision of wishes unchanged Fear of another, I fell in a daze Your love, your love won't change Frayed at the edges and blackened my days Cracked in a corner and drained without say Your love, your love won't change Your love, your love won't change All that I've known is a secret we've passed Fragments of empty desires and laughs I gave you my old eyes So long before I'd known my tearful goodbyes Separate in memory I'm never the same Years before you cried out for the old names My mind made up in spades So leave your old comforts, they're spit in the rain We've buried our friends and we've taken their lives Torn out in silence, I wish I knew mine More to bear the old age So wait here in sadness and run in your cage Makeshift a home that you'll hide all your dreams Stretch out the past till it no longer seems Real to those you love most I'll be back in time to remember your ghost Demons of waiting and circles that rhyme Crashing with madness while we flirt with time Crawl on, call my own mind The world will lean on you if you let them try Hopeful for reasons I no longer claim Begging for times that I've lost down the drain Your love will never change So break all the pieces we're far out of range

Ring the last bell That I knew so well, long gone And our fallen sounds They're marked in the ground, buried The shade of my day The words I would say, fading Well everyone's gone We've waited too long I wish I could follow I saw you again So this is the end The words were so hollow Misled and tried My words won't apply, they worry But if I go through I'll still look for you, out there But know that someday That we all could say, we were there Impatient I know The future will show In dreams I've been haunted The memories I hold My heart getting old The life that I've wanted

We're coming home, coming home, coming home again Coming home, coming home, coming home again From Houston, to LA, I'll never see you again Coming home, coming home, coming home again. I am a past thought, a shadow on her wall Memories of times, of a day, when I still stood by her side See, I dream of her in her summer dress It seems I've had to leave for good, into the great divide We're coming home, coming home, coming home again Coming home, coming home, coming home again Days slowed down and weeks became our fear, then… And I am sure she'll move on and forget me when I'm gone She told me that it's over now Still, I look back on those days and wish we'd made it through somehow We're coming home, coming home, coming home again Coming home, coming home, coming home again From Houston, to LA, I'll never see you again Coming home, coming home, coming home again.
