Greetings

When I look into your eyes, I can see
Such a sad man in disguise
Waiting, wishing, dreaming, drifting from me
Hurts my heart to see you cry
Waiting, wishing, dreaming, drifting from me

I don't know you anymore, wish I knew what's wrong
Can't we try to slam that door, start a brand new song

I know you're lonely and you cry, wondering why
I know it's lonely but if once, you could help me understand
What it takes to be a man
Look back on what you've said, and the life you've led
Is it what you dreamed when you were young like me.
Now it's time you took something back
Just for the sake of your mind.
When I look into your eyes, I can see
Life has buried you alive
Waiting, wishing, dreaming, drifting from me
You can't breathe
Heart as big as ocean's wide
Waiting, wishing, dreaming, drifting

Are you upset over all of this? Or are you just playing dead? Adding up the math. I can blink my eyes in a statistic fashion in the hopes it'd make you move. In the hopes it'd make you breathe. It's how disaster makes me feel. All I can think to do is stare and say, â??It's OK.â?? Just one more day spent tending ruins, 'cause of you. One more connection cut off by affection. One more useless night spent in this life. Lick your lips wet, try to forget. Jump in headfirst, who cares if it hurts? One light flashing, over guessing. If not for the life in you, I don't know what I'd do. It's how disaster makes me smile. The thought strikes as nice once in a while. One more connection cut off by affection. One tank short on gas, one bullet built to crash. These broken lungs have little air left, if some. The cause and effect is as simple as a car wreck. If not for the life, then this thought of you. It's a stupid thing to think that I won't lose, when all I want is this: To be more of the friends that sometimes kiss.

Feeling your way now,
At times you close your eyes,
It makes a difference,
It makes the moving difficult,
When you're not around,
I'd never cross that line,
I still want to show you,
I want to change your mind,
Something that we could be,
Something you won't try
You lost we tried to get inside,
Window shopping,
I just want to show you,
I just can't relate

Somewhere between a lie and truth
Lies a subtle line of gray and
Although it's undetectable
It's reflected in all we say

We don't want to hate or judge each other
We just want to live our lives
To save ourselves, we must seek the truth
And recognize these rites

I have my motivation, prejudice and pain
I will not live my life, live my life in vain
I have my motivation, prejudice and pain
No, I will not live my life, live my life in vain

This more-than-human condition
A denial of our flaws
We want the effects of perfection
But disregard the cause

A simple mistaken judgment
An unmistakable fact of life
We want to say we can do no wrong
But wrong's what defines right

In a perfect world, in a perfect world
In a perfect world that I can't live
In a perfect world, in a perfect world
In a perfect world that I can't live

In a perfect world, in a perfect world
In a perfect world that I can't live

We're fallible, we're so fragile
We suffer for our sins
We have to learn to learn from our mistakes
And somehow make amends

Stress and instability
Depression and dismay
We want to live without regrets
But there is no other way
You can't have it, you can't have it all

Maybe it's not over yet
Somewhere inside him there must be some
New dream awaiting to topple the rest
When he finds himself
Feeling alive yet alone
Maybe the best he can get is still out of his reach

Ran from the life that he hates
Hoping to find some new beginning
Abandoned the future they gave and
Took away knowing what they would say

Destined to rise above all of the
Simplified answers they gave him
Back there when surrounded by
Love he could not make sense
Of feeling alive yet alone
Maybe the best he can get is
Simply burned by fate

Yet he knows he's the champion of the planet
But he's told he was wrong for somehow deciding to...
