Head Spin

The summer bends and twirls
I'm flirting with your curls
Across the stairs I stare
This room was built for sin
That her graceful figure stumbled in
She's laughing as she twirls
You make my head spin
Treading a line that's so thin
But I'll just wait and see
Where the night takes me

Whoa oh, oh yeah

So take this night and keep it in your head
Remember why we never even tried

You make my head spin
I don't know where to begin
So I'll just wait and see 

Don't Say No

If only you were a ship I'd sail the seven seas
Claiming all the land that remains of you and me
We'd drift down the coast in search of a new life
But all we'd find is gold just to misdirect our minds

Don't say no
Don't burn yourself alive
Won't you take one last breath
And hold on tight
When the clouds come rolling in
To pour their summer tears
Upon your burning skin I'll be waiting here

If only I was a star sewn into the sky
Hanging from a thread that keeps you awake at night
And when you would look up the fog would cover me
Hiding all that we share and all that we can be
Don't say no
Don't burn yourself alive
Won't you take one last breath
And hold on tight
When the clouds come rolling in
To pour their summer tears
Upon your burning skin I'll be waiting here

I'll be waiting here
I'll be standing here
Are you listening?
I hope you're listening

Hold On

She's driving down the fast lane going thirty-five
He was drunk again and so she fled
It's just a standard night
Yet she knows that she'll be back again
So she'll just wait till he sees straight
To return to him

I told her hold on, hold on to your heart
Don't go, don't go givin' it away
I said hold on, hold on to your heart
Hold on to your heart

Nothing ever seems clear
Her eyes are tear dried red
All their photographs they seem to laugh
At what she thought she had
Girl it's not easy but you have to hold on
Cause all is fair in love in war
You win you loose you run
You've got to find the reason to hold on

Hold on, hold on to your heart
Don't go, don't go givin' it away
I said hold on, hold on to your heart
Hold on to your heart

This story that's been told
Is nothing new to most
Yet it occurs time after time
Girls you just don't learn
Take a cue from what you just heard
Lights, camera, action, what's my line?
I'm lost for words to say
So I'll rip up this page
And leave these last words up to you
Cause I can't help you now
You've got to learn somehow
I pray to God that you'll hold on

Hold on, hold on to your heart
Don't go, don't go givin' it away
I said hold on, hold on to your heart
Hold on to your heart

Have You Ever Danced With The Devil In The Pale Moonlight?

I've been searching for some questions found
In questions I don't know to ask
All bottled up inside my head
And never making any sense
But now I understand
You see my thought process is buried deep
Beneath a life of self abuse
There's too much damage to rebuild
And what's left remains a shield to tame future use
As the wagon rolls away I still march on

My life is all a waiting game
Long waits to feel straight but it never stays
So doctor fill my forged prescription
Cause I'm addicted to addictions and blame

The past's still presently my home
Which keeps recovery on hold
I'll escape this stranglehold somehow

Look into my eyes, past the lines
And you'll see how desperate I am to see clear
I've tried I swear I've tried to hide
But when I stand to run I get headstrong and fall
Yeah I stand to fall

There's one more thing that I'd like to make clear
My words are nothing more than days
That I have lived and struggled through
only to learn that things will never change

How does it feel to know
That you can never take back the things you've said and done to now
How does it feel?
How does it feel to know
Love always finds a way
To remind you that you never find out how it feels

Breakdown

Here I am, here I stand
trying to scrape up another breath
But there's none left for me to take

You can't breathe, you can't sleep
And god it hurts to even think of trying to eat
And now you're face down in a bathroom stall
Can't hold it down can't hold it down
You're face down in a bathroom stall

Break down, for all you gave
Break down, everything reminding you of what you had
Break down, for all the pain
Break down, everything, just break down everything

Yeah just break down everything you own
Don't pick up the phone and call
Cause the other line is another line again

Break down, for all you gave
Break down, everything reminding you of what you had
Break down, for all you gave
Break down, everything reminding you of what you had
Break down, for everything you had
Break down, cause now it is in the past
Break down, I wish it could have last for you 

Touche, Miss Indenial

She's inviting heartache to come home
Cause she's starving for hope
That maybe "baby" won't be pushed around
She wears makeup to cover up the signs
That she's naked behind her lies
But truth be told when daddy's home tonight

Get up, last call for another round
Stand up, you're due for a night on the town
Go home, his shots aren't the way to go down

Deep eyes, with even deeper wounds
Her face is too transparent, she can't hide it
She can't hide it anymore
So scream now or forever live in hell
Her silence isn't virtue
So open wide and try to hide cause here he comes

Get up, last call for another round
Stand up, you're due for a night on the town
Go home, his shots aren't the way to go down

It's not her fault
Typical words, typical slurs
every night is the same it can't get worse
She can't hide it, she can't fight it
but she can sit through his shit without crying 

It's Like A Knife In A Gunfight

Point break, hope lost
And I've done nothing wrong to deserve this
I'm nerveless
And all I've ever wanted is just to understand
Why this disease infects me
And why I can't live the life you all have

Pick me up, pick me up I'm falling
Pick me up, pick me up
It's no surprise this has come back to haunt me
So hold me up while its pulling me down
And with my eyes shut it opens my world
Pick me up, pick me up I'm falling
Pick me up, pick me up
There's much more life to live
And much more love to give
It's the beating in my chest
That keeps my head from giving up
Cause what I've started I've gotta see

Point break, hope lost
all immunity is gone and unworthy
It hurts me
And if I didn't feel so insecure
I might scream out for help

Pick me up, pick me up I'm falling
Pick me up, pick me up
It's no surprise this has come back to haunt me
So hold me up while its pulling me down
And with my eyes shut it opens my world
Pick me up, pick me up I'm falling
Pick me up, pick me up
There's much more life to live and much more love to give
it's the beating in my chest that keeps my head from giving up
cause what I've started I've gotta see

Please tell me everything will
Go away with this pill
That I take whole to fill this hole
I wish it was that simple
But I guess I can do as I've been told
And dig this hole 

Breathe For Me feat. Felix

I see you looking my way
You're so ashamed that I'm so ashamed
I hope that you'll find a way to make a change
It's not too late

Breathe on, breathe on for me
Breathe for me
You gotta get up, you gotta get up hell yeah
You gotta get up, pick yourself up now
Come on breathe man breathe
