A Prince in practice moans for the attention that he wants -

But most of this town won't even dignify his ignorance with a response -

Left to a crowded foster home by a 15 year old mom -

Never been held in anyone's arms / When you've never been moved it's really hard to move on -

A young saleswoman sets up shop when the sun sets -

She'll make your wildest dreams come true at a price you won't forget -

The sadly married set up alibis / No harm, no regret -

Hoping they meet an angel in bed to wrestle the devil right out of their heads -

This city runs fast / No one has time to sit with themselves -

No time to look into our pain and see the same despair in everyone else -

It's here, it's there, it's everywhere / Tears soak each card the dealer's dealt -

Time taught me how to see every second as heaven even though they're perfectly disguised as hell -

And I refuse to let past bruises cover the light -

It ain't all good, but it's all good enough, so I know I'm alright -

Agony is truth / It's our connection to the living -

I accept it as perfection and keep on existing in the... -



Now -

I can only build if I tear the walls down -

Even if it breaks me I won't let it make me frown -

I'm falling, but no matter how hard I hit the ground -

I'll still smile -

I can only build if I tear the walls down -

Even if it breaks me I won't let it make me frown -

I'm falling, but no matter how hard I hit the ground -

I'll still smile... -



Ear to ear as if that's all I'm here for -

Despite the wars founded by the rich and funded by the poor -

Kids barely 18 are dying so billionaires can make more -

Elsewhere, hungry mothers watch their babies starve to death in a beat up shack on a dirt floor -

The aged professor quotes "Freedom's without a path" -

Now he dresses like a widow and preaches "love is dead" in every class -

But curiosity killed the cat and taught the dog and them how to act -

Burned his bridge to Jill so he tries to drown the guilt with a bottle of Jack -

Self-proclaimed rebels say we must oppose the system -

Gotta take a stand / If you're not against 'em you're with 'em -

Signs read "Support the Troops" / Bring 'em home / No more innocent victims -

But when a homeless veteran asks for spare change you're too busy protesting to even listen -

And I'm no different / I live in conflict and contradiction -

They can be so beautiful when I don't reject what lies within -

It's beautiful the way agony connects us to the living -

I think of the world when I hurt and keep on existing in the...



Now -

I can only build if I tear the walls down -

Even if it breaks me I won't let it make me frown -

I'm falling, but no matter how hard I hit the ground -

I'll still smile -

I can only build if I tear the walls down -

Even if it breaks me I won't let it make me frown -

I'm falling, but no matter how hard I hit the ground -

I'll still smile -

Cry -

Don't cry for me -

I can't take it no more -

That's the way it must be -

You can't lie -

Your way back in -

Back into my heart -

No -

I won't let it be broken again -



Well I took a tumble -

Started to stumble -

That's when I fell -

Into a love I thought was sent from above -

I was under your spell -

All the things that mattered -

Were broken and shattered -

One by one -

I was so sad, but now I'm just glad that it's over and done -

There's just one thing -

I've got to say -

I truly loved you -

But now I'm walking away -

Yeah, I truly loved you -

I put no one above you -

But now I'm walking away -

Walking Away #1

Bye -

You ain't never gonna see me again if I can help it, little felon, take it easy -

Fresh out of forced tears, kisses, and hugs -

You're about to lose the company your misery loves -

I never did nothing but try to cure your disease -

At least help the symptoms / Instead you infected me -

I'm not the kind of man to draw a line in the sand -

If you gotta draw at all then it's time for you to scram -

P.S. / You can keep all this shit -

And hang around your broke friends and call yourself rich -

The struggling I did with you was all for nothing -

It was never enough / Your heart set on suffering -

I admit that I was weak in the beginning -

I wanted someone to need me instead of a friendship -

I didn't think I deserved a true partner -

So I tranfered the arrangement I had with my momma -



Since you never listened to a word I ever said -

Maybe seeing this door slam will get it through your head -

I don't love you / I don't think I ever did -

And if you hadn't tried to kill me I'd have stayed for the kid -



There's nothing more for us to say -

Got my mind made up / I'm walking away -

Sometimes we just out-grow the role that we play -

Hope you find a happy ending to your story some day -



Round and round and round we used to go -

I never fucked you right / I made enough bread, I know -

If I'm such a bastard and mistreated you so -

Why is it you're losing your mind to see me go? -

Truth be told, I held you together -

For all them years, and I cheated on you never -

Defended your honor / Took in your momma when she tried to rehab and had your back through the drama -

You got a sick stone under your ribs -

Where a heart is supposed to live -

Sick, twisted, and vindictive with your windows dim -

Baby, you're not wicked hard / Bullfish, you must shiver -

How you threaten to kill the most precious -

Gift that you'll ever be blessed with -

Unless you're twisted, demented, and depressed and shit -

And alone 'cause you faithfully slayed your friendships -



Since you never listened to a word I ever said -

Maybe seeing this door slam will get it though your head -

You don't love me / I don't think you ever did -

And if you hadn't tried to kill me I'd have stayed for the kid -



There's nothing more for us to say -

Got my mind made up / I'm walking away -

Sometimes we just out-grow the role that we play -

Hope you find a happy ending to your story some day -
