Fifteen years since I’ve been Alive and well Too much time in the Heart of hell too many pennies in this wishing well too many lies that you had to you had to tell Seven years I’ve been in and out with you too much time not knowing what to do Too much heartache but now I’m through too many lies I had to tell to you I don’t ever want to feel the same I just wanted to feel something I don’t ever want to see your eyes nevermore have to hear your lies 1 more year and I’ll be alive again too much time as a man of tin too much time not knowing where I’ve been nothing left but to begin again I don’t ever want to feel the same I just wanted to feel something I don’t ever want to see your eyes nevermore have to hear your lies I don't think that I ever really thought it was true what started out as a dream, slowly turned into you but then I woke up and realized we were through I don’t ever want to feel the same I just wanted to feel something I don’t ever want to see your eyes nevermore have to hear your lies

4AM - DEMO 03:41
It’s 4 in the morning chasing sleep again my heart was broken now I’m on the mend or so I thought All of this room now makes me feel so strange more than I’m used to but that all will change or so I thought Hold me down til the shakes are gone take my pulse wonder what I’m on hold my hand tell me all is well You know I’m addicted when I miss the pain Feeling so hollow just this husk remains blown in the wind Now you can trace me like lines in my arm heart on a keychain like some lucky charm blown in the wind Play this hand again I know I can win All my chips are in now this game can end

Steven was the first of us to drive yeah he was cool he would scream and spin his tires back behind the school weekends we’d slip away and run around the town Steven where are you today are you still around Steven my friend what you doing what kind of dreams are you pursuing They picked you up and then they knocked you they knocked you down steven he played the drums while I played guitar we had a band in school we knew we’d both be stars but then you fell off when you got a girl and then you knocked her up changed your whole damn world Steven my friend what you doing what kind of dreams are you pursuing They picked you up and then they knocked you they knocked you down Steven dropped out of my life somewhere around 25 Don’t know where he is now or even if he’s alive I sometimes think of those kids that we grew up and left behind they are still part of who we are in our hearts and minds Steven my friend what you doing what kind of dreams are you pursuing They picked you up and then they knocked you they knocked you down

I don’t like you when you’re drunk, ‘cause that’s when you speak your mind time after time it’s all the same, it’s a wonder I even see you in the corner pouting ‘til you’re turning blue Your innuendos don’t escape me as I run away from you You don’t understand Like you think you do You don’t wanna hear What I’m tellin’ you You don’t like me when I’m stuck In a rut, lost track again, In the end it’s not your plan And you know you cannot Stand me in the corner, Got me on the ropes again, If I had a friend to throw it in, Maybe this could end You don’t understand Like you think you do You don’t wanna hear What I’m tellin’ you You don’t wanna know I want nothing to do with you

You look at me like you expect a reply I look away to avoid another lie What can I do now, that hasn’t been tried A simple life only takes you so far With mouths to feed, it makes it so hard Come all this way just to go back to the start I feel so useless like I’m letting you down Looking for work, but there’s none to be found Cursing existence in this one-stoplight town You’re holding me in the highest regard With all that’s happening I’m laying down my cards No one knows what to expect in these uncertain times I don’t know what’s happening in these uncertain times I’m getting down, wondering how to get by And then I hear about a friend who might die Is it for him, or myself that I cry? Sometimes we forget to remember today It’s so easy to let life get in the way So pick yourself up, and listen to me say We’re never guaranteed another chance So while I’ve got two feet I’m gonna dance No one knows what to expect in these uncertain times I don’t know what’s happening in these uncertain times No one knows what to expect in these uncertain times Guess we’ll make the best of these uncertain times
