Track Name: Where Do We Go?
why does the rain
always make me feel so sleepy
tired of this
tired of that
and everything
if I drove away
would your sun come out
from wherever it hides
to push away the thunder clouds

though it pains me much to say
I have felt you slip away
many years before today

so where do we go from here
where do we go from here
where do we go from here

when you look back
on the things we've shared
over all of these years
what do you think
we could salvage now
I guess we'll see
in the future
twenty years or so from now
maybe then we'll understand

and though it pains me much to say
I have felt you slip away
many years before today

so where do we go from here
where do we go from here
where do we go from here
Track Name: Something to Say
she didn't want to do it today
and I couldn't take her place
I really wish there was something to say
but I can't think of anything

I can't think of anything

she didn't want to do it today
and I couldn't take her place
I wish there was something to say
but I can't think of anything

I can't think of anything
Track Name: Figure Out Your Life
I want to see you jump
I want to see you fly
look into my eyes
what do you see

it's not polite to run
so take a walk outside
go figure out your life

figure out your life

there was a time way back
when everything was right
it was so nice

but now we're here
so much time has passed
and everything's gone wrong
what took you so long
to figure out your life

figure out your life
go figure out your life

I want to see you jump
I want to see you fly
look into my eyes
what do you see?

you know
it's not too late to try
so take a walk outside
try to figure out your life

figure out your life
go figure out your life
Track Name: You Could Love Me
you asked me what I'd say
if you went away
I told you I don't know
besides, where would you go

I hope these seasons show
what heaven only knows

you could love me if you tried
you could love me more than life
you could love me
but you won't take the time
you won't take the time

I can't believe my eyes
I can't even cry
the story love departs
revealing naked hearts

you're so used to using me
I'm so lost without a dream

you could love me if you tried
you could love me if I died
you could love me
but you won't take the time
if you'd just take the time
but you won't take the time

you could love me if you tried
you could love me more than life
you could love me
but you won't take the time
Track Name: Don't Come Back
you do what you can
to get what you want
but all you ever have
is nothing

the sweetness of life
her taste in your mouth
still leaves you looking
for something

I lost my head
and found my mind
at the cost of leaving you behind
enough's enough
of these fairytale lies
and I'm sure that you'll be fine
don't come back this time

give me a reason
to hold on
to sit here
to die for you
and your freedom

now don't you ask
don't look at me
your chance passed
remarkably fast

I lost my head
and found my mind
at the cost of leaving you behind
enough's enough
of these fairytale lies
and I'm sure that you'll be fine
just don't come back this time
Track Name: One Day
you said you want out
that you are tired
of where you're at
you asked me
to let you walk away
leave just like that

it's time some new places, faces
got to know you
besides, you see no signs
that I'll ever get a clue

oh and I wonder

is what you found
giving all you hoped it would
is what you found
sweeping the lies away
well I hope it is
I pray so
'cause I'd really hate
turning up lost one day

so many days have passed
and still I hear your voice in here
here inside my head
sometimes I think
you just might reappear

but I know
we can never go back
to those old days
and I would say goodbye
but you are so long gone away

but I still wonder

is what you found
giving all you hoped it would
is what you found
sweeping the lies away
well I hope it is
I pray so
'cause I'd really hate
turning up lost one day

and all I ever wanted to know
is that you would be okay without me
if you truly are
then I'll be fine

but I still wonder

is what you found
giving all you hoped it would
is what you found
sweeping those lies away
well I hope it is
I pray so
'cause I'd really hate
turning up lost one day
yes I'd really hate
turning up lost one day

yes I'd really hate
turning up lost one day
Track Name: Never
lying on my back
looking up at the sky
everything's black
with speckles of white

and I know
I'll never see the light of day
I'll never breathe the air
I'll never be the perfect one
you were hoping for
and I don't care

lying to my face
in the heat of the night
I could really wreck this place
but I don't wanna fight

'cause I know
I'll never see the light of day
I'll never breathe the air
I'll never be the perfect one
you were hoping for
and I don't care

lying on the floor
looking hard at my life
everything is black

I'll never see the light of day
I'll never breathe the air
I'll never be the perfect one
you were hoping for
and I don't care
Track Name: I Should Be Dying
I guess I could be in a worse situation
than this one if I think about it

feels like I should be dying
yet I'm still here
I can't explain just what I've lost
when nothing's missing
yet I still see you
disappearing out of mind

gave me a jar full of pennies for my thoughts
I said you must be crazy to think that

I've been well-acquainted
with the fact that you were right
when you had said
the more things change
the more they tend to stay the same
I know that now

I guess I could be in a worse situation
than this one if I think about it

feels like I should be dying
yet I'm still here
Track Name: Not the One
I guess you're not the one for me
I guess you're not the one for me
don't know why it took so long to see
but you are not the one for me

and I've gotta say
hello, goodbye
I need to be alone
hello, goodbye
I have to let you go
hello, goodbye
don't let me catch you
in my sight again

I knew that time would only tell
what in my heart I knew so well
you always had to give me hell
you just wouldn't let me be myself

so I've gotta say
hello, goodbye
I need to be alone
hello, goodbye
I have to let you go
hello, goodbye
don't let me catch you
in my sight again

don't let me catch you
don't let me catch you

I guess you're not the one for me
Track Name: Ghost
you look like you've seen a ghost
you look like it's me
I said I'd never go
you always said you'd leave

you tell me what matters most
you tell me it's not me
so I have become a ghost
and you a memory
Track Name: Goodbye
I can't be like you this time
even though you were so kind
you still pretend that we're fine
but I think we both know it's time

to say goodbye to the past
let the future be fast
as it comes to wash away
all the words we'll never say

so far we're moving too slow
it's not like I'd hoped it would go
but I know that I have to go
we will always be the ones

who said goodbye to the past
and hoped the future was fast
as it came to wash away
all the words we'd never say

I couldn't live a lie even if I tried
consequently I will say goodbye
I couldn't live a lie even if I tried
consequently I just say goodbye
