Good Enough
You dont want to know
But that wont stop me from showing
For nights I drank too much
And words exchanged in the morning
For always pushing my luck
Expecting you to keep waiting
I want to be faithful
But as far as I can tell
Im not doing so well...thus far
But maybe tomorrow
Youll wake up to find out
If Im not good enough for now
Im good enough to wait for you
What have you been told
What are you so afraid of
Should I be so bold
And ask where that one came from
Can I be read my rights
Before you put me on trial
My past offense precedes my name

Satisfied
Should I be safe at home
A stronger man who really should know
Better than to reach the edge and
Try to fight this on my own
Can I be something I have yet
To see in my close friends
Theyve all lost their heads
And its bringing me down
To the place where Im supposed to...be
Responsibly...for now
Chorus:
I want it, I need it, just one more to satisfy
Cant help it, feel nothing and nothing feels right
Should I be safe at home
I relapse quicker than you could know
My past compulsions breed convulsions
A sorry scene unfolds
Can I be weak when Im stable
Strong in the cradle
Strung out in a fable

My Would-be Saviour
You try and fill my mind with doubt
Say Ive forgotten who I am
But maybe youve forgotten how to understand...so
Bridge:
You try and fill my mind with doubt
Say Ive forgotten who I am
But maybe youve forgotten how to understand...so
Bridge:
Have your whispers, I excused myself too soon
Antisocial, maybe yes and maybe you
Chorus:
Two days after the flood begins to settle down
I sit alone in a room full of friends
My would-be savior slips something into my
Mouth...for kicks
You live a life without regret
Bend a truth until it breaks
I thought Id seen you at your best
But my mistake...so
(bridge)

Forget
These things that we too soon forget
Collecting dust...spider webs that grow and grow
Till theres nothing left
Except for shreds that you cant quite call evidence
That I had a life before today
See I forget things I associate with pain
I thinks its time that
I start to look back on my life
Sitting around watching things go
These things that remind me of my home
I dont want to be in doubt
I dont need to know what this lifes all about
I just need to know for now
Are you gonna be around
When I need to find what Im missing
And I cant recall what it was I believed in
Take me home, surround me with friends
Take me home

Uninspired
Took a drive up the coast for the first time
Where the cities are few and far between
Found redemption, the street signs bearing my name
And direction, the last thing on my mind
Cuz I fell once again for believing
And in faith, I began to drive
I left my home to search for a feeling
That Id lost that must have died. I must have died
Ive been feeling uninspired
Battered and...broken tired c
Uz theres many things Ive never learned
Or even decided...what Im ready to serve
Falling asleep, the back of my car
Whod have believed I could get this far
Now all of my friends have lost the defense
Doesnt make much sense...i dont need sense

Better
So you want to tie both my arms off and
Force feed me to sharks
Just for the sake of releasing
Me from a memory of when you slept
In the serpents den
Showed me what lurks in the hearts of man
Left me alone with the consequence
Considered a bond between friends
Im not / youre escaping
With my good name
Create so you change
All the rules of this game
How low can you go
How deep and how bold
I might have misjudged
In you my trust
So you want to spit on my face and
Start to calling me names expecting me
To break down, give in, let you take the win
But Im not ready yet to be convinced

Wider
Missed the meeting, missed the meeting
Where my friends discussed why
I'm not around, i'm not around
You say i don't know who my real friends are
All i know is my real friends aren't
Talking behind my back, talking behind my back
Chorus:
Assuming things before they even ask me
Why i'm not behaving like i should
In their mind's eye, but they don't even know me
And i don't think they ever could
Missed the meeting, missed the meeting
Where my friends discussed why
I'm not around, i'm not around
If it's really important for you to say
Then you can say it to my face
Stop hiding out, stop hiding out
(chorus)
Maybe you fear what you don't know
And it hurts too much just to let it g

Question Everything
Ever since I was a child
You always said that I should understand the rules
You take some and give less
Sit high above the rest...dont you
As I ask a simple question
Cuts me off with his reply
Hes been practicing for decades
Now he thinks I have the time
He flows in and out of riddles
Looking me straight in the eye
But it seems like somethings missing
From the days when he was more my size
Chorus:
Ten years older and Ive finally found my pride
This old man comes rolling home to die
Old feelings make it hard to decide
Just what it means to me
Everything exists tween black and white
You can twist and distort the most blatant of lies
Or just offer up solutions

Not Alive
Whats wrong with me, I hear her say
Forget everything, and what it means to me
Im not alive, thats what she means
I hate to disappoint her, I only need some room to breathe
Whats wrong with me, whats wrong with you
Must we compete, who speaks the truth
You can have it all, if it serves you well
As long as I leave with myself
Chorus:
Im wide awake, I was dead before today
If you make it till tomorrow, see it works both ways
I will not try to apologize, for what I know is right
Another chance wrapped up again
Makes it difficult for you to comprehend
Just give it time, times all weve had
I loved you as a child, now I must leave as a man
(chorus)
Its so easy to be near me
When all Ive said gets lost between

Esteem
The city slips away too soon
Tonight shes wide awake
Making small talk with mr. moon
Singing louder than the rain
On nights like these she can be herself
She forgets Im there but its just as well
I always feel like Im by myself
And she never will, oh never will
She says she hates the fact that men can see
She wants to tear the eyes
Out of everything
What makes her feel the way she feels
Like everything is nothing
What makes her see the things she sees
Like everything thats wrong with me
I guess I should stop trying to figure her out
I should know by now that Im not allowed
Now I know this is not allowed
If I want to keep her coming round
She says she hates the fact that men can see
