Never thought I would be some runaway, Everything's changed now I don't have much to say. Never know I would be replaced, But now you've got me turning like I got no space. Never know I couldn't trust in you, Now that's all changed and I won't be the same. Running back - Like I've always done. I want to believe you now I do. I do. But I can't believe no more. I want to trust you now I do. I do. But I can't trust you now - I don't wanna fake; I don't wanna break it. All I need to do is go ahead and face it. I want to believe you now I do. I do. But I can't believe no more. Never though it would all just go away. Everything's changed and I feel like giving up. You're all that I can never be. Sure there's been some wrong here but I just won't leave. Never knew I couldn't trust in you. Now that's all changed and I'll take all the blame. But I'm back - Cause I'm blind to wrong. I want to believe you now I do. I do. But I can't believe no more. I want to trust you now I do. I do. But I can't trust you now - I don't wanna fake; I don't wanna break it. Running all on lies and stuck in hesitations. I want to believe you now I do. I do. But I can't believe no more. (jam) I want to believe you now I do. I do. But I can't believe no more. I want to trust you now I do. I do. But I can't trust you now - I don't wanna fake; I don't wanna break it. All I need to do is go ahead and face it. I want to believe you now I do. I do. But I can't believe no more.

Kayleigh's got a dragon in her pocket, empty prescriptions, and a hole in the bucket. Never thought she would be at it again, with the scare last year thought that was the end. Mama died when she was three years old and daddy turned to bottles and left the kids all alone. Never had the feelings that she felt before; always wanting a little more. But she'll never feel a thing tonight. Two shots on Second Avenue. Now what's a little girl to do? Nobody warned she'll never come back down. Two shots on Second Avenue. Heart beats then silence fills the room. Nobody warned you'll never come back down and see her when she's gone. Got a picture of mama in a locket; a lost description and no one ever saw it. Never thought that we would get her back; she fell of the path and off the track. It's been years and it got only worse with a heart of gold tainted by a serpent's curse. She went down hard pinned by a tack and no one ever thought that she would come back. But that's all gonna change tonight. Two shots on Second Avenue. Now what's a little girl to do? Nobody warned she'll never come back down. Two shots on Second Avenue. Heart beats then silence fills the room. Nobody warned you'll never come back down and see her when she's gone.

Alibis 02:19
I know that you won't call, Cause you're heading us for the fall. God know that I try and try, But you keep on telling me lies. You try to hide the ties, Cause you think that I'm all blind. Well I'm done with all those lies, Cause truth has it I now find that- I don't think that you realize that you're out of alibis. (x2) I know you broke the rule, Try to play me for the fool. Pretty soon I'll see you fall, Then the truth will be for all. You act like I'm behind, Even when you hear my cries. Everything just all went wrong, And the end will not be long cause- I don't think that you realize that you're out of alibis. (x2) I know that you won't call, Cause you're heading us for the fall. Well that's fine I'll say goodbye, Cause truth has it I now find that- I don't think that you realize that you're out of alibis. (x2)

Run To You 02:59
When I feel in the dark and nothing ever seems to light the spark and everything around me always fades away. When I know that nothing's right and all I wanna do is see you tonight and fight away the pains that take me every day. I just wanna go and get me away. From everything that's gone and causing me pain. It turns around when I run to you. There's not more that I can do. Everything I'm going through it turns around when I run to you. (x2) When I know that nothing's right it's like a lonely fire that won't ignite, I keep on searching but I never saw the flame. When I feel like I'm lost it's as if my mind is always being tossed I keep searching but I never see your face. I just wanna go and get me away. Cause this world has got me going insane. It turns around when I run to you. There's not more that I can do. Everything I'm going through it turns around when I run to you. (x2)

No- What did I do this time? Been waiting for some line- That never comes. How? Could this all go astray? Just want another way- But thats all lies. I say you don't understand it. I won't reprimand it. How come nothing stands in time? Certain situations come with unexpected ties. Certain declarations come with unpredicted lies. And in your desperation you won't know until you find. Til then, happens that you gotta get by. Hey- I think we're better off. Don't wanna brag at all. But it's alright. You- May seem to disagree. What does that mean to me? I mean it might. But I feel so immobile. Nothing gets me over. How come nothing stands in time?
