"Standstill"

"Standstill"



it's three in the morning and i stayed up all night drowning in my words
writing about you time seems to standstill since the day you left me
a revolving door slamming this time so slowly you're running out
you're running fast now
we were just kids back then two years of my life traded for an ending like this
like a love movie without a goodbye kiss
why was it me with all sincerity which car drove us to drove us to this road
this road of broken promises first it was broken glass
that fell down from the sky so fast it hit us then she promised
but it happened again

"Stay (I Missed You)"
(feat. Lisa Loeb)

"Stay (I Missed You)"
(feat. Lisa Loeb)



[From the movie "Reality Bites"]
[Originally by Lisa Loeb]

You say I only hear what I want to.
You say I talk so all the time so.

And I thought what I felt was simple,
And I thought that I don't belong,
And now that I am leaving,
Now I know that I did something wrong 'cause I missed you.
Yeah, I missed you.

And you say I only hear what I want to...
I don't listen hard,
I don't pay attention to the distance that you're running
Or to anyone, anywhere,
I don't understand if you really care,
I'm only hearing negative... no, no, no.

So I turned the radio on, I turned the radio up,
And this woman was singing my song...
The lover's in love, and the other's run away,
The lover is crying 'cause the other won't stay.

Some of us hover when we weep for the other who was
Dying since the day they were born.
Well, this is not that...
I think that I'm throwing, but I'm thrown.

And I thought I'd live forever, but now I'm not so sure.

You try to tell me that I'm clever,
But that won't take me anyhow, or anywhere with you.

You said that I was naive,
And I thought that I was strong.
I thought, "hey, I can leave, I can leave."
But now I know that I was wrong, 'cause I missed you.

You said, "You caught me 'cause you want me and one day you'll let me go."
"you try to give away a keeper, or keep me 'cause you know you're just so scared to lose.
And you say, "stay."

You say I only hear what I want to.

"Stories Of A Different Kind"

"Stories Of A Different Kind"


You’re 21 and jaded
While I’m just trying to survive but you still
See me smiling
You’re arrogant like you’ve made it
Acting like the living dead
But I’m the one who’s alive instead

Fires, fighting, and long wasted nights have
Become the moments that I live for

[Chorus:]
Stories of a different kind
You do it for money while I do it for a good time
And you can bet when it ends
I’ll be full of debt but I’ll have no regrets

Rocket shooting you straight to the top
And I’m afraid you miss the point
And you need some reminding
You’re no pioneer, your way was paved
A decade ago I was in your shoes
But never had your attitude

Fires, fighting, and long wasted nights have
Become the moments that I live for

[Chorus x2]

I’ve been around the world a thousand times
Had people shouting out my name
To later on forget all the words they sang
And it never felt the same

[Chorus x2]

You’ll be emptied files in a trash can
And I’ll be a good find in a used bin

"Stubborn"
(feat. Anthony Raneri)

"Stubborn"
(feat. Anthony Raneri)



Visions of red
I never thought that I could get here
In the past the pain would blind me
And at times I’d wish you dead
Now I see a picture clearer than the morning
To you I was a monster
And you had to save yourself

[Chorus:]
For only one more night
To hold you close
To tell you you were right
Oh, and I’ll take all the blame
For only one more night
To say what I was too stubborn to before
Oh, and I’ll take all the blame
Stubborn, I was stubborn
Too stubborn before
Too stubborn before

I left you alone
While I went off into my own world
Throw up my arms in anger
When you’d try to come pull me out
Now I see myself more clearly than the morning
To you I was hopeless
And I had to save myself

[Chorus]

I’m not trying to win you back
I’m not on my knees
I owe you this much
I’m not holding grudges anymore
Anymore

[Chorus]

"Such A Mess"

"Such A Mess"



It's too far back now
To remember just how much you played
A role in causing confusion in my brain
My nerves are tied announce my mind is (?)

Running with the seconds
Recollections of the past
Make me such a mess (such a mess)
I need to pull my self together and let it out
Pull my self together and let it out
Pull my self together and let it out

It's too far back now
To remember just how much you
Took control of the situation
In the first place, everything seemed fine
You followed right along

Losing face with the hours
Photographs of our best moments make me such a mess (such a mess)
I need to pull my self together and let it out

Pull my self together and let it out
Pull my self together and let it out
Pull my self together and let it out
Pull my self together and let it out

It was another night
I'm sinking deeper and I'm out of time
I can't erase you from my mind
(I can't erase you from my mind!)

It was another night
I'm sinking deeper and I'm out of time
(I can't erase you from my mind!)

Oh let it out
Pull my self together and let it out
I've gotta pull my self together

"Sucker"

"Sucker"



You're more than tongue tied this time
Well I can feel it in you lips
Nobody told me you were a sucker for a kiss
Music low
We're all alone
Being wrong never felt so right
Tell me about your first kiss
Tell me or have you already forgotten it
Tell me about your first kiss
What do I have to do to get through all of this?
I'm writing it down
I bet you thought this song was about you
You're more than just mad this time
You've got that look in your eye
Nobody told me you were a sucker for a kiss
Music low
We're all alone
Being wrong never felt so right
Tell me about your first kiss
Tell me or have you already forgotten it?
I'm writing it down
Just leave me here and tell me to my face what you think about
Can we figure out
What happened to our happy ending anyway?
How you feel about
Leaving me here
With a lot more left to say
Music low
We're all alone
Being wrong never felt so right
Tell me about your first kiss
Tell me or have you already forgotten it
Tell me about your first kiss
What do I have to do to get though all of this?
I'm writing it down
I bet you thought this song was about you

"Summer Fling, Don't Mean A Thing"

"Summer Fling, Don't Mean A Thing"



It's about time, we wrote our names in the cement
It's been killing you to say it, so let's begin
Affecting you more than you'd like me to believe
And it comes in many forms of excuses and at least

Look them in the eyes, tell them what they wanna hear
Yeah, that's when everyone falls my dear
Look me in the eyes, tell me what I wanna hear
You know I'll never fall for it

But when you need a boy around you just for the summer
Don't come knocking on my door
When you need a boy around you just for the summer
Don't come knocking on my door

About time, I won't wait another minute
So tell me your lies, I'll let you finish
Distracting me more than I'm liking to admit
And it goes without saying you have a lot to do with it

Look them in the eyes, tell them what they wanna hear
Yeah, that's when everyone falls my dear
Look me in the eyes, tell me what I wanna hear
You know I'll never fall for it

But when you need a boy around you just for the summer
Don't come knocking on my door
When you need a boy around you just for the summer
Don't come knocking on my door

Don't waste my time
You're never gonna change my mind
When you need a boy around you just for the summer
Don't come knocking on my door

Look them in the eyes, tell them what they wanna hear
Yeah, that's when everyone falls my dear
Look me in the eyes, tell me what I wanna hear
I won't fall for it, no!

So when you need someone around you
(Ba ba ba, ba ba ba)
When you need someone around you
Don't come knocking on my door

When you need a boy around you just for the summer
Don't come knocking on my door
When you need a boy around you just for the summer
Don't come knocking on my door

Don't waste my time
You're never gonna change my mind
When you need a boy around you just for the summer
Don't come knocking on my door

Don't come knocking on my door
Don't come knocking
When you need a boy around you
When you need a boy around you

"Taken Back By You"

"Taken Back By You"



This is my relapse
That I've succumb to
I went through things no one should have to
I could have never let this slip
I could have let this slip

And everything I do it reflects you
You went through things no one should have to
I could have never let this slip
I could have let this slip

And all those things you say out of nowhere
I'm taken back by you
And all those places that you've shown me
I'm taken back by you taken back by you

This is the future, can we save it?
We've done things no one thought we could do
This is the picture, can you paint it?
We could have let this slip

And nothing beats not knowing what's
Gonna happen next
For all the nights you've held me so long
I'm taken back by you, taken back by you

Yeah I owe, everything to you
Every darkness, I'll shine through
I have doubts, don't blame me
Don't let this slip, don't let this slip

"Tangled Up"

"Tangled Up"



Lies, all I hear are lies
Have you ever spoke a word of truth in your life?
Misled, you've always been misled
Always is taking advice from people who claim to be your friends

Oh I should have never laid eyes on you
Now I'm tangled up what can I do
What can I do, what can I
What can I do

Try, now you need to try
Try to never make the same mistakes in your life twice
(make the same mistakes in your life twice)
Truth, all I want is truth
Turning away is the last move I expect from, expect from you

Oh I should have never laid eyes on you
Now I'm tangled up what can I do
Oh I should have never laid eyes on you
Now I'm tangled up what can I do
What can I do

When you set the perfect trap
What can I do
What can I do
What can I do now

(lies all I hear are lies)

Oh I should have never laid eyes on you
Now I'm tangled up what can I do
Oh I should have never laid eyes on you
Now I'm tangled up what can I do (what can I do)

what can I do
what can I (what can I do)
what can I do

"Tell Tale Heart"

"Tell Tale Heart"



don't tell me what it's like to love someone a different song for a different girl
and to think i might be wrong tell tale heart again words
like these won't win these words and hearts you would come over to talk,
we'd act like there is something to say..
i've learned that time can heal your wounds but the reminder of a scar will stay..
stay, right here, right by me stay, the flame has died, down.
