Intro/I'm Sorry
05:03

I'm sorry is all I ever seem to say
I'm sorry is all I ever seem to say
I'm sorry is all I ever seem to say
I'm sorry is all I ever seem to say

I wish that I was dead
But I'm too afraid to die
I keep wishing for some tears
But think it's too cliché to cry
I pride myself on being insane
Knowing it gets worse every day
I keep saying that I'm worthless
Because happiness don't pay
But I say I'm happy
Because no one wants to hear bad news
I say I'm happy
Because no one wants to hear bad news
No one
No one wants to hear bad news
No one
No one wants to hear bad news
I bottled up my emotions
But Now they're overflowing
Every drop of rage and pain
Replacing the smile I was showing
They're spilling all over the place
Making my life a mess
And grinding my teeth is the only way
I know how to deal with the stress
So I say I'm happy
Because no one wants to hear bad news
I say I'm happy
Because no one wants to hear bad news
No one
No one wants to hear bad news
No one
No one wants to hear bad news
I think I'm manic depressive or something like that
You know it's messing with my mind
I'm feeling anxious and empty, tired and foolish
All of the time
I need to get some rest, I need to get some help
And maybe a hobby or two
I know I should and could reach out
But that's not what I'll do
But I say I'm happy
Because no one wants to hear bad news
I say I'm happy
Because no one wants to hear bad news
No one
No one wants to hear bad news
No one
No one wants to hear bad news

I Need Your Therapy
04:26
|
|||
|
I feel so insecure these days
I say the same shit over and over again
Trying to get my useless mind through the haze
Just trying to feel all right again
Won't you help me out
Save me from my insincerity
Won't you help me now
And maybe I'll see some clarity
So won't you help me out
Can't you see I need your charity
Please help me now
You know I need your therapy
My stomach aches, my head does too
I know that whining is all I ever do
I should probably go and see someone
But I ain't got the money or the time
Won't you help me out
Save me from my insincerity
Won't you help me now
And maybe I'll see some clarity
So Won't you help me out
Can't you see I need your charity
Please help me now
You know I need your therapy
Won't you help me out
Save me from my insincerity
Won't you help me now
And maybe I'll see some clarity
So won't you help me out
Can't you see I need your charity
Please help me now
You know I need your therapy

Love You Know
04:38
|
|||
|
Well I don't need to desiccate
It's my heart, my heart that aches
I don't need a loving home
Ain't got no moss won't gather no stone
If you can see, see like me
You know ain't nothing made to be
This ain't the end or the begin
So come on baby let's play pretend
Well I ain't too pretty
And I ain't too bright
But I'll hold you honey
And I'll make you feel all right
Woah oh you know it's love
When you're numb but you feel anyway
Woah ho you know it's love
That'll keep you, keep you sane
It's love
It's love you know
If you're useless, just like I
Maybe you don't know how to try
If you're lonesome just like me
Just remember love's cheap not free
When you're all alone, late at night
No one to love or hold you tight
Just remember everything ends
And even losers got some friends
Well I ain't pretty
And I ain't too bright
But I'll hold you honey
And make you feel all right
Woah oh you know it's love
When you're numb but you feel anyway
Woah ho you know it's love
That'll keep you, keep you sane
It's love
It's love you know

Nothing's Changed
03:04
|
|||
|
It's raining outside
Again today
And I'm just waiting
For the sun to shine my way
I can tell it's hopeless
But I don't mind
I'm just waiting
for the end of all time
If you take it all away
Or beg and plead to stay
Or if you leave it all behind
I guarantee you'll find
Nothing's changed at all
Is there any angel out there
That isn't in decay?
Anyone who would like
To stay around and play?
Anyone who thinks they know
Exactly what to say?
Well go ahead and spit your words
On the bloody page
If you take it all away
Or beg and plead to stay
Or if you leave it all behind
I guarantee you'll find
Nothing's changed at all
If you take it all away
Or beg and plead to stay
Or if you leave it all behind
I guarantee you'll find
Nothing's changed at all

This Time
04:21
|
|||
|
You can hear the wind howl in the trees,
All though your bones and it makes you believe.
It feels so empty to think about the past.
It feels so hopeless to try and make it last.
And you don't want to understand
No you don't want to understand
I can't tell you what you should do,
All I can say is that the pain is true.
I can't help you find a way back home,
All I can say is you're not alone.
So come on and let it die,
So come on and let it die,
This time.
The blood in your veins runs cold and dry,
And it burns like a fire crying from your eye,
And it breaks your heart and takes you away,
And it leaves only sorrow festering in your wake.
And you don't want to understand
No you don't want to understand
I can't tell you what you should do,
All I can say is that the pain is true.
I can't help you find a way back home,
All I can say is you're not alone.
So come on and let it die,
So come on and let it die,
This time.

Silver Lining
02:27
|
|||
|
It's a cold kind of feeling
That's eating me up inside
Left me all but defeated
Make me break down and cry
It's so hard to find, the silver lining
When the light, don't shine on you
At all
And I know it's got something to do with you
All the hell you put me though
Now it's too late to place the blame
Doesn't matter it's all the same anyway
It's so hard to find, the silver lining
When the light, don't shine on you
At all
My fists are clenched
My eyes they water
And tears do fall
And I know it's no use, no use at all
It's so hard to find, the silver lining
When the light, don't shine on you
At all
It's so hard to find, the silver lining
When the light, don't shine on you
At all

Tomorrow
04:48
|
|||
|
Oh great river drag me away
Farther along down the line
In the muddy banks I'll rest my head
With a clump of dirt as my pillow
I am weary, yes I am lost
Cleanse my soul in the muck and mire
I am dead, but I'll be reborn
Grow up tall as a willow
How will you feel when I'm gone?
Will tomorrow be just another day?
I know I'm filthy, I must get clean
Will tomorrow be just another day?
Will you miss me, miss me at all?
Will tomorrow be just another day?
I know I'm foolish, I know I must go
Go away
Oh Someone help me carry the weight
I'm not strong enough on my own
My muscles scream as I stumble
On my knees, I fall
A brow of sweat, drips down my face
I go numb from head to toe
I collapse, yes I drift away
But my sins carry on
How will you feel when I'm gone?
Will tomorrow be just another day?
I know I'm filthy, I must get clean
Will tomorrow be just another day?
Will you miss me, miss me at all?
Will tomorrow be just another day?
I know I'm foolish, I know I must go
Go away

Cardboard Cut-Out
04:10
|
|||
|
The fire burns the lashes away from my eyes
So that bloody tears are all I can cry
From the very first kiss to the last cold goodbye
My heart didn't merely skip a beat but froze up and died
Well if I'm lying, god knows I'm dying
And at this point either one is fine with me
Well if I'm lying, god knows I'm dying
And at this point either one is fine with me
The crooked pictures of my broken dreams are all I have left in my mind
And insanity has its limits those of which I've still to find
While the cardboard cut-out of my future gets pushed a little farther down the line
Now everything is ragged, tagged beaten, broken bloody and blind
Well if I'm lying, god knows I'm dying
And at this point either one is fine with me
Well if I'm lying, god knows I'm dying
And at this point either one is fine with me
Now I'm left pressure-cooking my sorrows with a half-empty bottle of gin
Even emptiness has a breaking point but I don't know where to begin
I feel like the poster-child for religion right at the height of sin
I mean I'm beaten down, with my broken crown,
Hell look at the mess I'm in
Well if I'm lying, god knows I'm dying
And at this point either one is fine with me
Well if I'm lying, god knows I'm dying
And at this point either one is fine with me

I've been going through some changes
Just like everyone else
Even though everything's moving
It feels like I'm standing still
My legs they tire from
The weight of it all
I know they'll give out
And I'll eventually fall
But I don't know if I'll get back up again
Don't know if I'll stand another day
No, I don't think my body will rise
Without you there by my side
I know I've done bad things
And I regret them all
Though I'm conflicted
Because they led me here
I feel like piece of mind is
Finally all mine
I'll no longer cry
Any old tears
But I don't know if I'll get back up again
Don't know if I'll stand another day
No, I don't think my body will rise
Without you there by my side
But I don't know if I'll get back up again
Don't know if I'll stand another day
No, I don't think my body will rise
Without you there by my side

Self-Pity
03:42
|

|
When I die
Will it matter that I'm gone?
Will it matter at all?
When I'm gone will you remember me
After I go?
Just scatter my crooked ashes
Over some patch of grass
Somewhere where no one will give a damn
Oh my god, oh my god, my god
It's all alright, all right, all right
It's okay,
Don't you know it's okay
On the day that I die
Don't you worry, don't you cry
I will come to you in a dream
I'll say useless things, I'll do useless things
You won't remember me after long
Oh my god, oh my god, my god
It's all alright, all right, all right
It's okay,
Don't you know it's okay
Oh my god, oh my god, my god
It's all alright, all right, all right
It's okay,
Don't you know it's okay

I'll Be Fine
04:15
|
|||
|
Tomorrow I may not be here anymore
I may fly away into the coming storm
But I'll be fine rest assured
So dry your eyes, tears aren't what they're for
A small quiet lie tells more than any truth
Any truth I'll ever know
A dark stormy night shows me more light
Than any halo could ever glow
And if I go away
Don't worry
I'll be fine
Today I feel so strong
I don't have to lie to make it through
The water feels so cool and warm
It soothes my aching bones too
A small quiet lie tells more than any truth
Any truth I'll ever know
A dark stormy night shows me more light
Than any halo could ever glow
And if I go away
Don't worry
I'll be fine
Yesterday I found I was wrong
Dreams can come to a screeching halt
Softly I lie awake
Tending to my wounds with salt
A small quiet lie tells more than any truth
Any truth I'll ever know
A dark stormy night shows me more light
Than any halo could ever glow
And if I go away
Don't worry
I'll be fine

All I Ever Seem To Say
06:52
|
|||
|
You know I feel hopeless all the time
What can I say or do?
There's something broke in my mind
I just can't get past blue
Help me through this if you can
You know I'm just a man
And I say it over and over again
Until the words lose meaning
I'm sorry's all I ever seem to say
I'm sorry's all I ever say
I'm sorry's all I ever seem to say
I'm sorry's all I ever say
You know I'm tired feeling defeated yeah
And I'm a gross piece of shit
You tell me not to say those things about myself
But I can't help it, I can't help it
I'm sorry's all I ever seem to say
I'm sorry's all I ever say
I'm sorry's all I ever seem to say
I'm sorry's all I ever say
You know It's something I'm trying to work on
But it's a slow, slow process
It's called building something up inside
To make me feel worth more than less
I'm sorry's all I ever seem to say
I'm sorry's all I ever say
I'm sorry's all I ever seem to say
I'm sorry's all I ever say
I'm sorry's all I ever seem to say
I'm sorry's all I ever say
I'm sorry's all I ever seem to say
I'm sorry I'll go away
