River Rise
-Ian
And I don't care what you say, that's right I really don't give a damn,
And you say I'm in your way, well I guess that's what I am,
And I just want you to know, that this hate is not that strong,
And I just want you to know, I'm gonna burn you all night long.
(chorus)
See the river rise,
Oh yeah, feels so good to be alive.
And I don't care what you hear, that's right I really don't give a damn,
And you say I'm what you fear, well I guess that's what i am,
And I just want you to know, that this love is not that strong,
And I just want you to know, I'm gonna burn you all night long.
(chorus)
See the river rise,
Oh yeah, feels so good to be alive,
To be alive
To be alive
To be alive
Back to the
Clown
-paul
big shoes, red tie, and your face is painted white
green hair, red nose, sad, sad eyes
tumble around as the lights shine down
you are a clown
for people to watch and laugh at
while you cry
(chorus)
i can't believe, i can't believe
what i'm seeing, what i'm seeing
is this really me, is this really me
is this really me
tumble around in the circus ring
my face, so red at attempts at anything well
tumble around as the lights shine down
i am a clown
for you to watch and laugh at
while i cry
(chorus)
i try my best to rise to the lights
but i'll never make it and that is real
laughing voices haunting me
spinning in my ears
well all i see is the clown in the mirror
all i see is the clown here
and it's me
(chorus)
na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
na-na-na-na-na-na-na
uh-ah
Back to the
Fade
-Ian
Used to stop and smell the roses,
now those days have passed me by,
the hourglass exposes,
my fatal flaw of wasted time.
(chorus)
I fade away,
I fade away,
for the lase time.
Looked into your mind now,
I want to see what's inside,
and I wonder just how,
your visions make me cry.
(chorus)
Kiss my face, and make it bleed,
tell me that I'm what you need,
Kiss my face and make it bleed, I am what you need
I am what you need
I am what you need
I am what you need
(chorus)
Back to the
Father
-paul
hey, the cradle is gone from here
and in the child's hand
is a cross formed of matches
burning his fingers
hey, why can't you see
what's going on
inside the mind
of your own hope and dreams
and i run away
and i run away
and hide my true face
(chorus)
would it bother you anyways
if i don't turn out
would it bother you anyways
if i don't come around
all the things that you have to be
i just don't want to be them
would it bother you anyways
if i don't come, don't come around
hey, i've been afraid to tell you anything
sometimes they don't matter
but father it seems i actually care what you think
and i am getting sick of avoiding the truth
so i push it back, and push you away
and stay away from you
and i run away
and i run away
and hide my true face
(chorus)
all my secrets have turned into lies
can you see behind these pale eyes, i don't care
oh, but it's time to come clean with you
(chorus)
would it bother you anyways
if i don't come, don't come around
Back to the
Build It Up
-Ian
Falling faster from grace,
accused with no evidence,
cna you see my disgrace,
I need to take my defense, and...
(chorus)
Build it up, yeah
Build it up, yeah
Build it up, yeah
Build it up, yeah
Dangling down from a rope,
I'm just hanging around,
and I've lost all hope,
my will has come tumbling down.
(chorus)
I have lost my sense of, what is right and wrong,
I would run away, but I've been running for as long,
Just take what's in my head,
take what's in my head
take what's in my head
take what's in my head
and...
(chorus)
What's there left for me to say,
a confession is not pending,
hey, I love you by the way,
my weary soul is descending.
(chorus)
(chorus)
