What I Want
(feat. Slash)

It always seemed that I was sorry for the things that I did,
But never did a thing about it 'til I let you in.
It's kinda funny about the time that I was falling apart.
You came and put me back together, now.

'Cause what I want
And what I need
Has now become the same thing
You've been offering.
As days go by,
I've finally become what you want me to be.

I still remember all the stupid things that I've said and done,
But still, you stuck around with me when all your friends said, "Run!"
Givin' me a name, I found myself inside all the flames.
Becoming everything for you again.

What I want
And what I need
Has now become the same thing
You've been offering.
As days go by,
I've finally become what you want me to be.

Don't tell me you saw it all along.
God help me, I never knew it alone.
Guess I was wrong.

What I want
And what I need
Has now become the same thing
You've been offering.
As days go by,
I've finally become what you want me to be.

And what I need
Has now become the same thing
You've been offering.
You've taken me,
And shaped me to become what you want me to be

Call Your Name

You never said you never said you never said
That it would be this hard
Your love was meant to be forever
Now it never seems to discard
There’s gotta be a better way
For me to say what’s on my heart
Without leaving scars
So can you hear me
When I call your name

And when you fall apart
Am I the reason for your endless sorrow
There’s so much to be said
With a broken heart
Your world can only go down
But so low
Can you hear me when I call your name
When I call your name

Complicated situations are the makings of all that’s wrong
And I’ve been standing in the river of deliverance way too long
There’s gotta be a better way
For me to say what’s on my heart
Without leaving scars
So can you hear me
When I call your name
So can you hear me
When I call your name

You never said
You never said
You never said
You never said
(When I call your name)
You never said
You never said
You never said
You never said
(When I call your name)

(Yeah)

And when you fall apart
Am I the reason for your endless sorrow
There’s so much to be said
With a broken heart
Your world can only go down
But so low
Can you hear me when I call your name
When I call your name

Ghost Of Me

Thought i was dead and buried
Then it woke you up last night
You sounded so damn worried
You've been tossing,turnig,both ends burning
Iwanna put your mind at ease again (make everything alright)
I know it's getting underneath your skin
I've try to tell you now

RIT.

Don't look over your shoulder
'Cause that's just the ghost of me you're seeing in your dreams
Wait,there's no rhime or reason
Sometimes there's no meaning in the visions when you're sleepin'
Don't wake up and believe them
You're looking at the ghost of me

With your immagination
And emotions running wild
Fueling my frustration
Like a fire burning,clock keeps turning
I know it's getting underneath your skin
I've try to tell you now

RIT.
Don't look over your shoulder
'Cause that's just the ghost of me you're seeing in your dreams
Wait,there's no rhime or reason
Sometimes there's no meaning in the visions when you're sleepin'
Don't wake up and believe them
You're looking at the ghost of me
You're looking at the ghost of me
You're looking at the ghost of me

Don't look over your shoulder
'Cause that's just the ghost of me you're seein'

Wait,there's no rhime or reason
Sometimes there's no meaning in the visions when you're sleepin'
Don't wake up and believe them
You're looking at the ghost of me
You're looking at the ghost of me
You're looking at the ghost of me

Learn My Lesson

Tonight the sunset means so much
The one thing that you know you'll never touch
Like the feeling,the real thing
I reach out for the sweet dream
But somehow the darkness wakes me up
I've felt this emptiness before
But all the times that i've been broken
I still run right back for more

RIT.
You'd think that i'd learned my lesson by now
You'd think that i'd somehow figure out
That if you strike the match
You're bound to feel the flame
You'd think that i'd learned the cost of love
Paid that price long enough
ut still i drive myself right through the pain
Yeah,well it turns out,i haven't learned a thing

Sometimes i think i'm better off
To turn out the lights and close up shop
And give up the longing,believing in belonging
Just hold down my head and take the loss

RIT.
You'd think that i'd learned my lesson by now
You'd think that i'd somehow figure out
That if you strike the match
You're bound to feel the flame
You'd think that i'd learned the cost of love
Paid that price long enough
ut still i drive myself right through the pain
Yeah,well it turns out,i haven't learned a thing

Life After You

Ten miles from town
And I just broke down
Spitting out smoke on the side of the road
I'm out here alone
Just trying to get home
To tell you I was wrong
But you already know
Believe me I won't stop at nothing
To see you so I've started running

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter
As long as I'm laughing with you
And I think that all that still matters
Is love ever after
After the life we've been through
Cause I know there's no life after you

The last time we talked
The night that I walked
Burns like an iron in the back of my mind
I must have been high to say you and I
Weren't meant to be and just wasting my time
Oh why did I ever doubt you
You know I would die here without you

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter
As long as I'm laughing with you
And I think that all that still matters
Is love ever after
After the life we've been through
Cause I know there's no life after you

You and I
Right or wrong
There's no other one
After this time I've spent alone
I do believe that a man with sight can be so blind
Thinking bout the better times
Musta been out of my mind
So I'm running back to tell you
All that I'm after is a life full of laughter
Without you God knows what I'd do

All that I'm after is a life full of laughter
As long as I'm laughing with you
And I think that all that still matters
Is love ever after
After the life we've been through
I know there's no life after you
I know there's no life after you
I know there's no life after you
I know there's no life after you
I know there's no life after you
I know there's no life after you
I know there's no life after you

No Surprise

I've practiced this for hours gone round and round
and now I think that I've got it all down
and as I say it louder I love how it sounds
'Cause I'm not takin' the easy way out
Not wrappn' this in ribbons
Shouldn't have to give a reason why...
It's no suprise I won't be here tomorrow
I can't believe that I stayed 'till today
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
But I know in time we'll find this was no suprise
It came out like a river once I let it out
When I thought that I wouldn't know how
Held on to it forever just pushin' it down
Felt so good to let go of it now
Not wrappin' this in ribbons
Shouldn't have to give a reason why..
its no suprise I won't be here tomorrow
I can't believe that I stayed 'till today
There's nothing here in this heart left to borrow
there's nothing here in this soul left to say
Don't be suprised when we hate this tomorrow
God knows we try to find an easier way
Yeah you and I will be a tough act to follow
But I know in time we'll find this was no suprise
Our Favorite place we used to go
The warm embrace that no one knows
The loving look thats left your eyes
That's why this comes as no, as no suprise
If I could see the future and how this plays out
I bet it's better than where we are now
But after going through this
It's easier to see the reason why
It's no suprise I won't be here tomorrow
I can't believe that I stayed 'till today (stayed 'till today)
Yeah you and I will be a Tough act to follow
But I know in time we'll find this was no suprise
Our Favorite place we used to go
The warm embrace that no one knows
The loving look thats left your eyes
But I know in time we'll find this was no suprise

Open Up Your Eyes

A single rose left to remember
As a single tear falls from her eye
Another cold day in December
A view from the day she said goodbye

It seems it's only been a moment
Since the angels took him from her arms
She was left there
Holding on to their tomorrow
But as they lay him in the ground
Her heart would sing without a sound

For the first time you can open your eyes
And see the world without your sorrow
No-one knows the pain you left behind
Or the peace you could never find
It's waiting there to hold and keep you
Welcome to the first day of your life
Just Open Up Your Eyes

A single lifetime waves behind her
As she draws her final breath
Just beyond the door he'll find her
Taking her hand he softly says

For the first time you can open your eyes
And see the world without your sorrow
No-one knows the pain you left behind
Or the peace you could never find
It's waiting there to hold and keep you
Welcome to the first day of your life
Just open up your eyes

As I lay down tonight
Safe on the other side
No more tears to cry

For the first time you can open your eyes
And see the world without your sorrow
No-one knows the pain you left behind
Or the peace you could never find
It's waiting there to hold and keep you
Welcome to the first day of your life
Just open up your eyes

September

How the time passed away
All the truble thatwe gave
and all those days we spent out by the lake
Has it all gone to waste
All the promises we made
One by one they vanish just the same

RIT.

Of all the things i still remember
Summer's never looked the same
The years go by and the time just seems to fly by but the memories remain
In the middle of september
We'd still play out in the rain
Nothing to lose but everyting to gain
Reflecting now on how things could've been...it was worth it in the end

Now it all seems so clear
There's nothing left to fear
So we made our way by finding what was real
Now the days are so long that summer's moving on
We reach for something that's already gone

We knew we had to LEAVE THIS TOWN
But we never knew when and we never knew how
We would end up here the way we are
Yeah We knew we had to LEAVE THIS TOWN
But we never knew when and we never knew how

RIT.

Supernatural

Lost from the start
I might as well be on the moon
Much colder than I thought
Even in the month of June
Nothing near vacation
Makes you feel so alone
Well, all need is patience
Which I've never really known

But now it's too late
It's taking over me
I feel so Supernatural
And the farther you're away
Is more than I can take
And I'm losing all of everything
And no matter how I try
You know I can't deny
'Cause you feel so supernatural

Every step I take
Is leading me to where you are
But all that I believe in
Is keeping me from seeing too far
Throwing out the questions
Waiting for the right reply
Looking for the answers
Tell me will it be tonight

But now it's too late
It's taking over me
I feel so supernatural
And the farther you're away
Is more than I can take
And I'm losing all of everything
Well, it's more than physical
It's kinda hard to see far beyond the glow
And no matter how I try
You know I can't deny
'Cause you feel so supernatural

Through the atmosphere I'm seeing
Eclipses of the past I'm leaving
Holding out the life as we collide

But now it's too late
It's taking over me
I feel so supernatural
And the farther you're away
Is more than I can take
And I'm losing all of everything
It's more than physical
It's kinda hard to see beyond the glow
And no matter how I try
You know I can't deny
'Cause you feel so supernatural

Feel so supernatural
Feel so supernatural
Whoa
Feel so supernatural
Feel so supernatural

Tennessee Line

Open my lungs
To breathe in forgiveness and love
Haunting me now
Reminders of how I used to be
On down the road
The troubles sure to follow
Looking out the window
Hell, I know where I will go
So I'll just keep on driving

On my way to LA
Looking into the rear-view
As the roads fade away
I swore off my past
The first and last bad call
That I ever made
Tell me how to make right
Every wrong turn that I've learned
That this could all end tonight
Tennessee Line
Just changed my mind
With this heart I'll follow this time

Who would've known
The brightest is hard to swallow
As I rest on the shoulder of a road growing colder
With the trouble I own
Should I just keep on driving?

On my way to LA
Looking into the rear-view
As the roads fade away
I swore off my past
The first and last bad call
That I ever made
Tell me how to make right
Every wrong turn that I've learned
That this could all end tonight

Tennessee Line
Just changed my mind
With this heart I'll follow this time

I know I must be doing something wrong
Head the other way back to where I started out
Ask myself if I can turn it all around tonight
And stop living with doubt
Yeah

On my way to LA
Looking into the rear-view
As the roads fade away
I swore off my past
The first and last bad call
That I ever made
Tell me how to make right
Every wrong turn that I've learned
That this could all end tonight
Tennessee Line
Just changed my mind
With this heart I'll follow this time

I swore off my past
The first and last bad call
That I ever made
With this heart I'll follow this time
I swore off my past
The first and last bad call
That I ever made
Oh, I'll turn it all around tonight
Turn it all around tonight
Turn it all around tonight
I'm gonna turn it all around tonight
At the Tennessee line

What I Meant To Say

I woke up today
Sinkin like the stones that you have thrown
Wounded by the same old shots you take
It's easier to kick me when I'm low

And I just thought that you should know
That I've been holding on while you've been letting go
Then it's not too late to say it right this time
'Cause I know I said I'm sorry
But that's not what I meant to say

Strong enough to say
That I dont wanna take the high road now
S-S-So typical of you to walk away
When your perfect little world is burning down

And I just thought that you should know
That I'd been holding on while you'd been letting go
Can I be so bold
'Cause all this talking all to you's just getting old
Then it's not too late to say it right this time
'Cause I know I said I'm sorry
But that's not what I meant to say

Ah,
What I really meant to say
With every little breath I take
I'm not the only one who makes mistakes
Just think of all the ones you made

And I just thought that you should know
That I'd been holding on while you'd been letting go
Can I be so bold
'Cause all this sucking up to you's just getting old
Well, it's not too late to say it right this time
'Cause I know I said I'm sorry
But that's not what I meant to say

Can I be so bold
'Cause all this talking all to you's just getting old
Well, it's not too late to say it right this time
'Cause I know I said I'm sorry
But that's not what I meant to say
