It's Simple 04:39
Bite my tongue until it bleeds so I can tell if this is real I'll keep my eyes shut on the image of your face put that picture up in mental space If it's a dream, just a dream don't let me know I'll keep you close, keep you close So I don't have to go years of abuse have left me feeling numb years of mistakes have left me feeling dumb I love to feel, to feel your lips on mine It gives me chills, gives me chills, every single time It's simple, it's simple, I live for your approval It's simple, it's simple, I live for your approval And I for one, I could not live with your refusal Won't you please, Come and lay with me...tonight They'll read it in the papers, the story of us Young hearted heroes, who refused to give up We'll leave the critics who call it a fad if they don't like our style then that's just too bad I love to feel your fingers brush my skin I love to feel your feel on my skin It's simple, it's simple, I live for your approval It's simple, it's simple, I live for your approval And I for one, I could not live with your refusal Won't you please, Come and lay with me...tonight I could be the man you grow old with don't know if you've ever been told this But we could be their dream We could be their everything It's simple, it's simple, I live for your approval It's simple, it's simple, I live for your approval And I for one, I could not live with your refusal Won't you please, Come and lay with me...tonight

Well you're selfish,impatient, and insecure I know it sounds harsh, but I love you just the way you are In fact those are a few things, I like about you and if I'm wrong, you can tell me it's not true That you're selfish, in the way you stole my heart You ripped it out of my chest,kept it to yourself and it's become clear, that there's noone else but you can't feel feel it beating for you (chorus) I'm right here,and I'm standing,staring at the ground And I'm thinking, of the words,the perfect words to say on the way to your house, with some flowers we could talk all day or just a few hours But then I think to myself that this is really just a bad idea Ya, this is really just a bad idea Anyways... I think your impatient, in your waiting for love waiting for a sign, to come from above he might look like an angel, but he doesn't love you and with your head in the clouds, you can't see what's in front of you I'm right here,and I'm standing,staring at the ground And I'm thinking, of the words,the perfect words to say on the way to your house, with some flowers we could talk all day or just a few hours But then I think to myself that this is really just a bad idea Ya, this is really just a bad idea And you don't need to be insecure with your beautiful smile and beautiful eyes and when I have the chance to see them I'll take my time I'm right here,and I'm standing,staring at the ground And I'm thinking, of the words,the perfect words to say and I'm running down your street, through parking lots and open lawns I'll be happy, just to see you your face appearing as the dawn And then I'll think to myself that this is really just a bad idea Ya, this really just a bad idea but it just might work...

She said it was over / Didn't wanna believe her She said that we could still be friends / Didn't wanna leave her And so she looked him in the eyes She did her best trying not to cry She said / It's okay / She said / It's alright Two weeks later / and we're both in hell I told your boyfriend that I / hope you're doing well I couldn't get angry / I couldn't feel sad All of my emotions / have left me for dead Just thought you oughtta know I saw this comin' from a mile away Just thought you oughtta know That I don't give a damn either way Two weeks later / here we are again you said / I feel sorry for you Let's be more than friends And so she looked him in the eyes She did her best trying to lie She said / It's okay / She said / It's alright She said / It's okay / It's alright/ Ya / It's gonna be just fine Just thought you oughtta know I saw this comin' from a mile away Just thought you oughtta know That I don't give a damn either way And it's too bad if he didn't show But I don't give a damn either way Say that you want this / but I'll never take you back Say you never loved him / It was always me You say love is forever / love is forever You say love is forever / But I'll never take you back

I've always got these burning questions but you never have the answers why can't things just go my way I saw you with him just the other day I wouldn't mind standing out of the way unless of course you asked me to stay I'm sorry that I cannot be the man you wanted me to be (I'm sorry) You're supposed to fight for the one you love The room is filling up with silence and my hands are filling up my pockets Can't you see I'm dying here I want you to remember all the times we spent together but it's time to call it quits I'm sorry that I cannot be the man you wanted me to be (I'm sorry) You're supposed to fight for the one you love He won't love you like I love you No one ever will and when he leaves you wanting more,just know I'm always here for you I promise that I'll be the man that you wanted me to be (I promise) You're supposed to fight for the one you love

My Angel 04:17
you are the one that shines above the sound of your voice is just too much for my heart to take for my heart to break take it in your hands an rip it off the wall bleedin' from my chest again just another mess to clean wrap me in your bandages you make everything better i'm dreaming of your eyes they hypnotize me so forget the worst i know it hurts but, don't forget me can you see me out your window passing by to say hello again but we both know a kiss from you is all i need put my lips up to your window screen i'm dreaming of your eyes they hypnotize me so forget the worst I know it hurts but, don't forget me i'm looking in your eyes as we lay in your bed and we're watching the stars go by i need you by my side

You swore you'd never love anyone else this was the vow you spoke but noone heard and now your all alone in the dark spaces of your room "i must admit i've fallen in love with the tears and the blood and that deeper shade of red..." we both know this isn't the solution but sometimes it feels like pain is the only friend and this is what they say that love is always pain (no) love is love until it... fades away a heart with hunger pains This is the romance you wanted and this is what you got instead a real bad case of heartache and a soul that fills with lead and so the story goes and so the story's told He left him for another He left him alone some would say it never should have started but what do they know? love is love until it... fades away a heart with hunger pains This is the romance you wanted Bastard cupid has struck again quiver and arrows in hand and hes aiming for your head This is the romance you wanted and this is the crap you got instead a real bad case of heartache and a soul that fills with lead

It doesn't matter whether it's by car or plane you take this exit and things will never be the same and everywhere you go,everybody seems to know what you've done, Baby don't you know, you can't always run I'm not gonna chase you this time I'm all out of stupid one lines Pack my bags it's time to move on I'm giving up / Time to get gone It's time to run

Its Monday morning and she tells me that we cant be together Its Tuesday morning and I can see she means it now more than ever On Wednesday morning hope is rising with the sun By Thursday evening I can tell my luck is done On Friday night I'm so excited to see her But on Saturday we sat in different ends of the theater And I can't stand it, but I have to live with this When it rained in August, I was stung and I was wet from your visit Dead September, I guess I had my chance but I missed it Lonely October, I decided I would leave you in the past Scared in November, afraid I spoke a little too fast Ending December, and you can hardly speak to me In January we started all over again And I can't stand it, but I have to live with this It's been two years now, and I wish you'd forgiven me You say you'll never, but please don't stop talking to me And you're not over, the pain that I caused and that's fine And you're not over me, but the feelings will die in due time You know I'd do anything, anything to make you mine These days there's fire, and it's burning the doubt in my mind
