Hey, it’s me again
Maybe we should pretend
That we don’t need anyone
And were still having fun?
If I fool you twice
Will you follow me once?
If i show you the dance
Will you give me romance?
Greetings from the poet on the third floor
Greetings from the one you don’t care for
You should answer my calls
And i should be there when you fall
You aren’t the only one
To turn things on
Were so very special
We don’t even last seconds
From the inside looking out
Me and my big mouth
Greetings from the poet on the third floor
Greetings from the one you don’t care for

She and him
Enter town
Solitude
To be found
Not a thing
Not a sound
Everything
has gone down
Everyone's asleep in the pitchblack night
She seem so sweet in the moonlight
Life is a game not meant to be played
She's alone broken and forever delayed
Bar to bar
Place to place
Enemies left to face
Went to far
Hit to low
She's a star
Please don't go
Everyone's asleep in the pitchblack night
She seem so sweet in the moonlight
Life is a game not meant to be played
She's alone broken and forever delayed

He's another memory, another faded postcard.
Things are so vague and sick, you weren't his only lonely sidekick.
The doctor ran from the place, sunshine drenched in clouds.
Empty bottles of cheap medicine and you're forever and ever forgiving
Please don't give in, please don't give up on those dreams within.
So it's all a big letdown, it will all resolve into something.
You will not control it because you're not in a state to be in it.
It all comes down to this, the real dying of lying.
You spend a whole life in sin from that last his hands were on your chin.
Please don't give in, please don't give up on those dreams within.
The resolution of confusion will kill your ins and outs.
Everything you stood for will rise and shine once moore.
Someone's in love with you, someone will lift you up.
I don’t know where to begin, someone loves you to win.
Please don't give in, please don't give up on those dreams within.

Lights from the street shines through my window.
And everything I do remind me of you.
I used to see good in you and me.
But i never saw when you became so unfree.
The pretty people walk past and i finally know now that i wont last.
When everyone stopped and the crowd went on home.
I didn't know were to roam.
I am a ghost of whatever I used to be.
To bad ill never see how it feels to bo free.
The pretty people walk past and i finally know now that i wont last.

Young happy and restless, running around in circles.
Outside of everything still running from churches.
Riding around in your car watching the stars.
We were kings and queens, big phil playing his guitar.
Seventeen short years young, seventeen long years old.
Another song unsung, another soul waiting to be sold.
Everything I knew, it's all but true.
Outside your town, no one hear a sound.
A friend in love, Im watching it from above.
She's not in love with you, she won't help you through.
Don't tell us what to do, we will help you through.
Sand between my toes, you're still running.
The sky turned red, the image of you is stunning
Meet me by the rocks just beside that old boat.
There might be something, don't bring your same old worn coat.
I won't keep you warm it's a farewell to arms.
A former friend is calling with charms like old firearms.
Everything I knew, it's all but true.
Outside your town, no one hear a sound.
A friend in love, Im watching it from above.
She's not in love with you, she won’t help you through.
Don't tell us what to do, we will help you through

You seem to know it all but I know when you're about to fall.
Dirty pretty things in you, dream on see me through.
You don't know the first thing about anything.
Rusty chains on my door, we don't believe anything anymore.
Brother please spare a dime, don't kill yourself in primetime.
I am the oldest son when you include everyone.
You never seen the heat, the whole world beneath your feet.
Princess of the imaginary castle don't climb on up.
Rusty chains on my door, we don't believe anything anymore.
Brother please spare a dime, don't kill yourself in primetime.

07. I See The Blues

You never meant to much to me or to anyone.
I always liked you but i never thought you were any fun.
We ran throught the same streets and the same railroadtracks.
We screamed the same things that were never going back.
That were never going back.
I see the blues it tears a hole in your soul.
Nothing to loose in this dying world.
You turn to booze crying over a girl.
You lost your right hand and I think that I might understand.
We're all going down left behind in our hometown.
I see you and your so called friends.
They wont see you and they don't comprehend.
They put mind over matter, they sit and sip their wine.
To afraid to listen, leaving everyone behind.
Leaving everyone behind.
I see the blues it tears a hole in your soul.
Nothing to loose in this dying world.
You turn to booze crying over a girl.
You lost your right hand and I think that I might understand.
We're all going down, left behind in our hometown.
You take the bus home you're always so alone.
It isn't easy when you realize you got kicked off of your throne.
You wake up one morning and you realize that you aint got no home.
But you're in love for once and I think that this could be it.
I think that this could be it.
I see the blues it tears a hole in your soul.
Nothing to loose in this dying world.
You turn to booze crying over a girl.
You lost your right hand and I think that I might understand.
We're all going down, left behind in our hometown.

She sang for him
One winter’s night
Sang him to sleep
And he dreamt a dream
Of oceans vast
And did not notice me
As I came in
Through the door
She saw me and smiled
And she stood up
“Please take me away
Save from this hell”
You’ll throw it away
What you have with him
Just to be with me
I’m sorry you said
But I can’t do this
Not while I still love
She took my hand
And left with me
Far, far away
And he woke alone
But for what it’s worth
I did it all for you
I took you away
‘Cause you asked me to
And now you feel the guilt
Will you leave me?
As you left him
Do it all over it again
You’ll throw it away
What you have with me
Just to be with him
I’m sorry you said
But I can’t do this
Not while I still love

I'm running from the past and I'm going there so fast.
Colors going out in space and I think that I finally found my place.
Somewhere between you and I, god's the only judge of this trial
So when the sky falls down, when you lose your crown.
Remember when we learned how to fly.
Remember you and I.
I don't know who I am.
I don't know what to be.
I don't know how to last.
My eyes gone blind now you can see,
how I forgot to be me.
My eyes are blind now you can see.

Neil sings in my ear, he was so young back then.
I do not fear, when Neil sings in my ear.
I see you across a crowded room.
You look back right into my eyes.
Brown eyes, kind eyes, eyes for someone else.
Neil sings in my ear, he was so young back then.
I do not fear, when Neil sings in my ear.
You wear your hair like the crown of thorns.
He stares into your soul in a way I'd never do.
You're so lucky to have him by your side.
Neil sings in my ear, he was so young back then.
I do not fear, when Neil sings in my ear.
Go ahead lie to me and tell me he's going to leave you be.
Everyone's in love with you, you're a superstar.
Everyone feel the way I do, you could go far.
Girl of my dreams, please don't follow me.

Everything I own is a heart made of stone
and boxes in my car.
Everything you do all we been through
are boxes in my car.
Hold my hand and maybe one day you'll understand.
Everything I own is a heart made of stone
