I'll tell it from the start, everything was fine, everything was fine until they went away, they said they needed this was this a clue you see I believe in clues, but you gotta be aware or you will miss out and I won't be the one, no I won't be the one, no I won't die, Tonight
2.
It's a long walk home, start abruptly, I know that you're expecting me by now, I can't be the one to tell you So I'll hide in the dark until you know, and I'll only come out when it hits the floor Give me a scream so that I know you know, give me a yell this situation's just too cold! It's the right time, to settle down and be yourself I see those marks across your hands that shows you do the same as me It's the right time, to start at something that you love I see those marks across your hands that shows you do the same as me That shows you do the same as me, I fall asleep watching tv, with my hands under my head, my arms asleep from lack of circulation I'm dosing off and it might be for the last time, if I don't wake up don't be upset, I was never the one to hold you down It's the right time, to settle down and be yourself I see those marks across your hands that shows you do the same as me It's the right time, to start at something that you love I see those marks across your hands that shows you do the same as me
3.
Without a line, I'm broken, too hard to follow it's always way too much, I'm choking It's incredible how, to focus, how can I focus you will not let me see, complaining! You drag me down, say something useful and don't lie you never could Do something useful with your life, and don't blame it all on him Check yourself out! Be afraid, be afraid it cannot last Check yourself out! Be afraid, be afraid! It's funny how I knew it would end, not to fake it just to say we pretend I know! It's time to go, please just follow my lead You got it! Well maybe not see you fooled me again, so tricky Be afraid of the dark, it's coming! So many shots you really think you'd make it, I'll make sure you'll never make it Say something useful and don't lie you never could Do something useful with your life and don't blame it all on him Check yourself out! Be afraid, be afraid it cannot last Check yourself out! Be afraid, be afraid!

Tonight 04:18
Tonight is just another night, just another night for, climbing up mountains and getting nowhere We are getting to, never looking back There's never a problem, there's never a problem How did I get here? Cause I don't remember a day ago, it's starting to scare me, just listen to me 200 miles from home, my head is not working straight alone It's starting to scare me, just listen to me I don't know where I am, just say that I'm your man, that's all I want to hear, that's all I want to hear I've got a gun don't be afraid, this is a plan I've never made, and you're the only one I trust Conversations a thousand miles from home, you're not the only one alone just to let you know This situation is causing your deep end, this heart is hard to mend alone just to let you know There is a problem with everything we have, I know!

What was I saying, sorry I thought you were playing, I don't know why you thought this was alright? You can't run away! You've got to stay and live this through tonight. Or it'll come right back to you, you've lost this much don't know enough, there's nothing standing in your way, do I understand? Oh yes I do. It's fascinating, breathtaking, trouble making is my thing, what is your thing? It's funny how this works, I try to stop you, without ever getting in your way, cause I have to be smart. And you have to be logical, cause no one is ever as blind as a man who is in love. He says what was I saying, sorry I thought you were playing, I don't know why you thought this was alright! You can't run away, you've got to stay and live this through tonight. So you learn your lesson, one more time for old times sake, it's hard but count your blessings What was I saying, sorry I thought you were playing, I don't know why you thought this was alright, you can't run away, you've got to stay and live this through.

This is it! It's gonna be gone soon! I can't take one more, night she said to, the mirror oh how lonely must she be, not to take this one, always being nothing. You know constantly talking isn't necessarily communicating Sent away, so I'm not part of this, and it's not my fault Sent away, so I'm not part of this, and it's not my fault I'm gonna make it big she constantly said, let me tell you honey it's harder than it seems Another point it's a matter of fact, it says that I will never be your keeper Another point it's a matter of taste, how can I get through this without you Cause holding onto promises is what I'm known for best Sent away, so I'm not part of this, and it's not my fault Sent away, so I'm not part of this, and it's not my fault Holding onto promises is what I'm known for best Holding onto promises, promises and I won't let you down
7.
It's the night, it's everything we waited for and the air, it's cold but so refreshing so we'll, dance all night, to the songs we used to dance to, when we were young and everything was new, I'll tell you, it's the nights like this that stand forever, I'll hold onto this time forever And we'll dance all night, to the songs we used to dance to, when we were young and everything, we'll dance all night, to the songs we used to dance to when we were young and everything was right Everything was right, so lets go back, to something that I never thought I'd have, I'm so intimidated I'm breaking at the site of your house, it's somewhere I never thought I would be, lets hold on close and forget everything And we'll dance all night, to the songs we used to dance to, when we were young and everything, had a chance all night, it's the night we can't hold onto, it's the night tonight so anything will go, anything goes, and everything goes, it's the principal of the time, it's the chill you feel down the bottom of your spine

28 Days 02:52
The time, it's way to late for me to call, I don't! It's the last thing I want, the last thing you want I'm scared enough under the covers, lets get this rolling, it's not how it's supposed to be Ten minutes til we hit the freeway, after that I'd say you're on your way Your way, adventure is up to you, lets get this rolling, it's all that's left to do Oh great, who hit the lights it's way to dark, not me! It's the last thing I want, the last thing you want. It's ten minutes til they get the signal, 30 seconds is an eternity I can sense the fear is rising, their sense of fear it's always what they see I'm scared enough, running for my life, let's get this rolling, it's not how it's supposed to be, it's not how it's supposed to be, why do you keep saying that, because it's true

Walking Away 05:34
It's cold in the dark, it's the mood I've come to call my own, all on my own So if I ever leave, I promise to take my bags and never talk, of this place again I'll just keep walking, away, it's the fear of the moment, to date, I'm not scared to walk away And on my first day out, I'll tell every person that I meet, I'm a new man now And if I catch a ride, I'll thank the person from the bottom of my heart, and it's what I mean, it's what I mean, away, I'll just keep talking, away That's my perfect day! These memories called home, they really don't mean much to me Darling please don't leave, it's not even time for sleep, I know it's been a while, I know it's been a while But you've got to see the way I see, it's the way I meant to be, and I promise I will change, I promise I will change. 'cause I've never been so sure, then how I'm feeling now, and it's all I know right now, it's all I know right now!

The Wire 05:47
I'm gonna take take it, all the way home, cause it's all I've got I'm gonna show show it, to all my loved ones, it's all I've got and I've got to be myself, if not then to who else It's the time, it's the place, it's the moment, it's our history that made us what we are It's time I face, it's why I'm living, my problem is that I am here exactly where I started I'm no disgrace, cause I won't give up, I was never one for giving up and I'm not about to start it now It's time, to do what you want to, anytime you choose, and I, will hold on til goodbye, at least to say I tried I'm leaving town, it's time I head out, there is nothing left for me here, that's why I have to get out It's my passion that won't quit, I'm the one that's been here all along, Don't step
