I sold you a lullaby
That you never knew
I sold you a broken heart

Not caring what It'll do to you
Not caring what It'll do.

I told you some tiny lies
I bended the truth
I looked right into your eyes
You didn't know I could see right through
That's what you oughtta do

Chorus:
Do you believe me
Do you really know what's in store
If you believe me
Anymore?

You fell for my sweetest lines
As if I'd known you for years
You fell for my hazel eyes
As if they could only cry real tears
You're so foolish, my dear.

Chorus

I only gave you my word and
It means nothing to me
I find it really absurd
That it was all you could need.

Why do you believe me
Do you really know what's in store
If you believe me...

You should have been more aware
I'm only in this for me
You should have been more prepared
I'll never know why you couldn't see
Then again, don't listen to me...

Chorus

Nobody Home

Here, lying weightless
I’m all alone
There’s nobody home
It feels like
I’m in a photograph
No need to move
No need to understand

I’m just here
I’m all alone
There’s nobody home

There, through my window
The sky is so blue
But that’s nothing new
It looks like
A color photograph
No need to care
No need to smile or laugh

I’m just here
I’m all alone
There’s nobody home

Here
‘Til it all disappears

Blue Man Hear an audio clip

I first saw him on the T.V.
A little boy watched as he raided the ice box
Reminding myself it’s just a movie
You know, I’m turning it off now,
I can’t take it anymore.
But do I dare turn out the lights?
And do I dare open my eyes?
To see a...

Chorus:
Blue Man looking at me
He’s starting to freak me out
I think that my life is over
Please, don’t come close to me
I can’t hardly breathe at all
Or else the time is going slower.

I was driving home from something
Near to my destination
Far from civilization
Driving at a speed next to nothing
It’s a beautiful night out,
The kind where you see all the stars
Then something fell down from the sky
A flashing light blinded my eyes
And there’s a...

Chorus

Why don’t you believe that this could happen to me
I’ve got fifty-two fanatics who want to buy the story
Is it even real or is it all in my mind
Since I can’t remember all those moments in time
But hypnosis will find...

I was paralyzed in silence
As he stood there before me with his partners in probing
Maybe I’ll escape through the air vents
And then he said without speaking
That I shouldn’t plan on leaving soon
And then a thunder filled the room
My doctor told me that his money was due
And so he left me with a...

Chorus

Tonight Hear an audio clip

Another time and dimension
Another world far away
What’s on the edge
Is something out there?
A Universe of light and space.

See it tonight
Be with me tonight
See it tonight
Be with me alright

Another star in suspension
Another fire of red and blue
I never saw the constellations
Unordered light was all I knew

See it tonight
Be with me tonight
See it tonight
Be with me alright

Time flies
Moons rise
And you’re breathing
Stars die
Worlds try
To understand just what they’re seeing
Daylight,
Bring on the Night!

Another chance for perfection
Another life has begun
A life that knows of no frustration
A place where minds can dream as one.

See it tonight
Be with me tonight
See it tonight
Be with me alright

You Tear Me Down Hear an audio clip

You tear me down
You rip me apart
I don't understand
I don't even know who you are
With your careless and cold-ass heart

You screw me up
You're wasting my time
I can't give it up
I don't even know why I try
With your careless and cold-ass mind

You tear me down
You're making me fall
All over my insides
I don't know
It's making me nervous
Even so
I can't give it up.

You wear me out
My tears have run dry
I figure it out
And I don't even know why I cried
Over your careless and cold-ass pride

You tear me down
You're making me fall
All over my insides
I don't know
It's making me nervous
Even so
I can't give it up.

Taking Me Over

5 years
of wanting more
Until yesterday
I found
the one thing they could never give me.
I used to look up
to what was right
Now I look up
to the truth.
I know it’s something
you have always wanted to teach me.
I know they’ll try and take it away.

So won’t you hold me tight
‘Til everything feels alright.
I know you can read my mind;
It’s taking me over.
So while the whole world waits
I’m off to a better place
And feeling a brighter phase
Is taking me over.
Taking me over

5 days
of falling down
Nothing left to lose
Until that one thing
Brought me to my feet and released me.
I used to look up
To what was theirs
And now I look up
To what is mine
I know its something
You have always wanted to please me
I guess that I was only afraid.

So wont you hold me tight
‘Til everything feels alright.
I know you can read my mind;
It’s taking me over.
And while the whole world waits
I’m off to a better place
And feeling a brighter phase
Is taking me over.
Taking me over

I’m not complaining
I’m not forgetting the way
They wanted good things for me
I’m not pretending
And I’m not saying that they,
They couldn’t see
I’m just moving on...

5 nights
Of looking in
At a lifetime
of memories
There’s always something
Keeping us from realization
I used to look up
To what they knew
And now I look up
To what I’ll know
Although it’s frightening
To take control and find your elation
The thing that makes you finally change.

So won’t you hold me tight
Now everything feels alright.
I know you can read my mind;
It’s taking me over.
So while the whole world fades
I’m off to a better place
And feeling a brighter phase
Is taking me over.
Taking me over...

Confidential Hear an audio clip

All my anguish
Seems so unavoidable
Common interests
Common chemicals
They make me wonder
How it got so out of control
They make me wonder
Is it confidential?
Is it confidential?

Perfect pleasure
Seems so unattainable
Famous faces
Well, they seem to have it all.
But they make me wonder
Who’s really got it under control?
They make me wonder
Is it confidential?
Is it confidential?

Don’t look down
You might see the truth
Like an open door
Waiting there for you
Don’t flip out
It’s what’s happening
But it’s over now
It’s all over now.

Quiet Questions
Answers unavailable
Simple secrets
Well I don’t like them at all
They make me wonder
Is it all under control?
They make me wonder
Is it confidential?
Is it confidential?

Beyond Life

Can you see infinitely
Would you ever know it really
Would the chimes stop completely
So far beyond your brain circuitry
Waking up every morning
Feeling your mind is still adjusting
To real life, far from dreaming
And you can’t decide what’s more intriguing

Chorus:
Now is your light on
Or is your heart just so far beyond
So far beyond life
That you know what I mean
when you’re light years away
So far beyond time
That you know it is real
when your night turns to day
And all of your memories
move beyond the same way.

Technology is far from ending
When all that you earn is half you’re spending
Now did you believe the motor runs you
When there’s no control from high above you
Looking back to find what pleases
Knowing it’s not all you needed
Now is it a game or merely instinct
That you can’t decide what makes you more complete

Chorus

Waking up every morning
Feeling your mind is still adjusting
To real life, it’s far from dreaming
And you can’t decide what’s more intriguing
Now did you believe there’s something out there
That’s waiting your you to understand
And when you do they’ll take you somewhere
That’s never before been known to man

Chorus.

For So Long Hear an audio clip

It’s another summer night and
I can only think of autumn
Oh the moon is full and bright and
Well, I couldn’t really care.

The stars are shining
But I only see disorder
I can hear distant singing
But I know they’re out of tune

It’s not that I cannot appreciate
Spontaneous beauty and things that have been there for so long
It’s just that I’m longing to see your face
And I know that I’ll just be sitting here, waiting for so long
For so long

I’ve got a lot of money
But I waste it on the little things
I’ve got a lot of love, babe
But what’s the point if you’re away

It’s not that I cannot appreciate
The dreaming and wishing and hoping and needing for so long
It’s just that I want for your warm embrace
But I know that I’ll just be feeling this feeling for so long
For so long
