Dirty Sticky Floors

Waiting for the last time for my friend to change my mind
Waiting for the last drop seems like a long, long time
Maybe I should go back home
I´ll sit and wait right by the phone
Praying over the porcelain throne
On my dirty sticky floor

Ask me what I want
Easy, that's just more
How long will I wait for you?
Twice as long as I did before
Standing in the freezing snow
Maybe you left I just don't know
I'll soon be lying on my own
On some dirty sticky floor

I hope no one can see me
The tin man says I'm doing fine
That lion ain't going to get me
See that gun right there - it's mine

I´ve painted the face where I burnt the floor
Now the face has become my devil's door
Laying in the bathroom
On my dirty sticky floor

My dirty sticky

Hold On

You keep sending me all these things
I'm learning how to smile
You keep sending me all these things
I think I'll stay awhile

Tried to talk to you in my dream
You looked at me and smiled
Your smile said to me
I'll have to wait awhile
I have to wait awhile

Hold on
You opened my eyes today
Hold on
Another surprise

You keep giving me all these things
I see them in your smile
You keep giving me all these things
I think I'll stay awhile
I guess I'll stay awhile

Hold on
You opened my eyes today
Hold on
Another surprise

Hold on
Hold on
You opened my eyes
Hold on
Another surprise
Hold on
You opened my eyes today
Hold on
Another surprise

A Little Piece

All alone and bitter
All alone and mad
All alone with someone
And I should be so glad

All alone and twisted
All alone and bad
Won't you come and fix it
I really feel quite sad

A little piece of you
A little piece of me
A little piece of God
Is what you gave to me

And all my wishes
Have come true
I know without a doubt
When I look at you

When I trust in you
If you can trust in me
Maybe someday
We can all be free

A little piece of you
A little piece of me
A little piece of God
Is what you gave to me

Is what you gave to me

Bottle Living

He's like a king without a crown
He wears it like a clown
Watch him disappear
I wish he would come down

So call before you drown
I won' t always be around
Living for the bottle
He's living for the bottle

He's a ship without a sail
He's not listening when you speak
Living for the bottle
He'll be sitting there all week

So call before you drown
I won't always be around
Living for the bottle
He's living for the bottle
Yeah

There's no light on in his eyes
How heavy are the lies
Just jumped right out his skin
He'll take you for a ride

Living for the bottle
He's living for the bottle
So call before you drown
I won't always be around

He´s adog without a bite
Still looking for a fight
All in black
He won't be home tonight
Yeah

There's no light on in his eyes
How heavy are the lies
Just jumped right out his skin
He'll take you for a ride

Living for the bottle
He's living for the bottle
I won't always be around
So call before you drown

Black And Blue Again

I'm back in the room with the two-way door
I don't know where it is sure been there before
The thoughts in my head, I just can't describe
They're just too insane, and they're all outside

All my apologies have been used up
All my words are not enough
I'm asking you on my knees
To look inside me
I'm black and blue again

I'm black and blue again

Do you remember we were such good friends
And now we're back in the ring fighting again
The taste that's in my mouth
You see it's not very nice
Screaming at you
There's tears in your eyes

All my apologies have been used up
All my words are not enough
I'm asking you on my knees
To look inside me
I'm black and blue again

I'm black and blue again

I'm not very nice
You said I'm not very nice
I'm not very nice
You said I'm not very nice
I'm not very nice
You see I'm not very nice

All my apologies have been used up
All my words are not enough
I'm asking you on my knees
To look inside me
I'm black and blue again

I'm black and blue again
Black and blue again
Black and blue again

I'm not very nice
You know I'm not very nice
You said I'm not very nice

Stay

She's softly breathing next to me
Shining angel sent to me
From where she came it's hard to say
Tiny star, she guides my way
When we were lovers
We both discovered

Stay
You can leave tomorrow
Stay
Wait until tomorrow
Please stay

Living here in shades of grey
Colour she light a reason to stay
From where she came it's hard to say
Tiny star, she guides my way
When we were lovers
We both discovered

Stay
You can leave tomorrow
Stay
Wait until tomorrow
Please stay

I Need You

I need you
I need you
I need you

I'm asking my friend
I need you again
Can you do something for me?
Time, it just past
And we had some laughs
Maybe it's just about greed

You'll always need me much more than I need you
You'll always need me much more
You'll always need me much more than I need you
You'll always need me much more
I need you

I'll ask you again but I don't think you've changed
You never did nothing for me
I wonder sometimes if you're looking down
On everything that you see

With all of your gold
Stories all told
Somethings just aren't meant to be
You live in the past
Shadows don't last
This time it's all about me

You'll always need me much more than I need you
You'll always need me much more
You'll always need me much more than I need you
You'll always need me much more
I need you

You'll always need me much more than I need you
I need you
You'll always need me much more
I need you

I need you

Bitter Apple

Days long gone and lost hot nights
No crowded streets to walk tonight
Still the stars shine so bright
Don't need a coat, I'll be alright

Then you walked into my life
Halo bright with dark brown eyes
Just standing in her light
Remembered love again at night

Bitter apple, take a bite
(It's kind of wonderful)
Fallen star, you're mine tonight
(Strange but beautiful)
Bitter apple, take my life
(It's kind of wonderful)
If I close my eyes, you're mine tonight
Tonight

We laughed so hard it caused some pain
Two strangers standing in the rain
We smoked our cigarettes
(It's kind of wonderful)
Exchanging our regrets
(Strange but beautiful)

Bitter apple, take a bite
(It's kind of wonderful)
Fallen star, you're mine tonight
(Strange but beautiful)
Bitter apple, take my life
(It's kind of wonderful)
If I close my eyes, you're mine tonight
(Strange but beautiful)
Tonight

If I close my eyes, you're mine tonight
Tonight

If I close my eyes...

Hidden Houses

Behind the door
A secret place
A hidden house, you see
A place where you imagine
Just how life could be
And in your head
You've made your bed
You sleep alone you see
The person in the mirror can't be me

That's alright
You say that's life
It's alright
You saved my life

Hold my hand
Close your eyes
Understand

Behind each man
A frightened lamb
Who hides beneath the sheets
Waiting for a chance to just be free
Behind the masks
Try to last another day or week
A perfect life laid in front of me

That's alright
You say that's life
It's alright
You saved my life

Hold my hand
Close your eyes
Understand

Come with me, let's walk
Close your eyes, let's talk
My love

Goodbye

It isn't very hard to see from where I stand
There's no one to blame
I opened up my eyes to see a world with so much pleasure
Not pain
As she looked into my eyes I knew my mind would see her again
We're changing and it's hard for me to stay the same

She answers all the questions
Things I find so very hard to say
As I close my eyes
I heard the whisper "Goodbye"
All these questions that I'm asking
Feel very foolish anyway (Goodbye)
As I turn the corner, I heard her whisper again
(Goodbye)

It's what she said
(Goodbye) It's what she said
(Goodbye) It's what she said
It's what she said

I love her from the first time we kissed
She taste so great
She lit another candle and slowly fell into the flame

She answers all the questions
Things I find so very hard to say
As I close my eyes
I heard her whisper "Goodbye"
All these questions that I'm asking
Feel very foolish anyway (Goodbye)
As I turn the corner, I heard her whisper again
(Goodbye)

It's what she said
(Goodbye) It's what she said
(Goodbye) It's what she said
It's what she said
It's what she said

(Goodbye)

Stand Up

You give me untold riches
To which I hatched a plan
I drink myself to death
Just because I can

Gave me many choices
I didn't understand
Crawled across the floor
I knew I couldn't stand

Can't lie to myself this way
I have to stand up and walk away
I can't lie to myself this way
I have to stand up and walk away

Stand up
Stand up
Stand up
Stand up and walk
Away

Hard to watch you suffer
So hard to feel the pain
But you're wrapped so tight in your one block world
Too scared to make the change

Ask yourself this question
While you're playing with your gun
Is your finger shaking on the trigger
Are you really having fun

I can't lie to myself this way
I have to stand up and walk away
I can't lie to myself this way
I have to stand up and walk away

Stand up
Stand up
Stand up
Stand up and walk
Away

Stop talking
Try listening
To what I'm trying to say

If you're walking
You're breathing
Maybe you can make a change

You give me untold riches
To which I hatched a plan
I drink myself to death
Just because I can

Now I'm judge and jury
Are you having so much fun
Sitting up there on your throne
I've only just begun

I can't lie to myself this way
I have to stand up and walk away
I can't lie to myself today
I have to stand up and walk away

Stand up
Stand up
Stand up
Stand up and walk
Away

Maybe

Running around a gigantic tree
Round and round
I can't shake free
Maybe

Looking behind you're much closer to me
The man I fear
He lives inside of me
Maybe

I know I can swim
but what if I drown
I know I can't win
When you're not around

Maybe

Thought you left me when I put her down
I know I can swim
But what if I drown
Maybe

Standing in the middle of a crowded room
Feels like hell
Take me home soon

Maybe

I know I can swim
But what if I drown
I know I can't win
If you're not around

Maybe

Closer

The ocean is creeping in
Closer each day with every sin
Now when did our life begin?
The ocean keeps rolling in

The night is oh so dark
And that dog will howl and bark
And your face is oh so stark
The ocean is creeping in

The ocean is creeping in
Closer each day with every sin
My heart is caving in
The ocean keeps rolling in

The ocean keeps rolling in

Now another long year has passed
And I don't know how long we'll last
I can hear your distant laughs
And the ocean keeps rolling in

And the sun seems oh so clear
I can hear it's hiss and sneer
My stomach it starts to burn
Oh God let's hope we learn

The ocean is creeping in
With every and every sin
My hearts still caving in
The ocean keeps rolling in

The ocean keeps rolling in

Stay with me
It's hard to breathe
Lay with me
Please don't leave now
Close your eyes
Don't miss a beat now

The ocean keeps rolling in

Breathe

A sudden calm inside of me
Now everything is better
Together in a safe warm place
I remember when I met you
I took your hand
You guided me
Even felt much clever
Bought your love
Soft and white
Just a soft pink letter

Breathe for me
Breathe for me
Breathe for me
We can be together
If you breathe for me

All the trees have lost their leaves
It's hard to lift my eyes
Haven't seen the sun for weeks now
Is it day or night
Can't remember where I met you
Don't know if I'm here
Think I need a little help to
Take away my fear
Ahahaa

Breathe for me
Breathe for me
Breathe for me
Put your hands in my hands
You can bleed for me

Could you breathe for me?
