Never say the things you wana say When the chance comes around you slip away Was it just too serious? Or not so important? If you’ve got something to say Why don’t you say it twice? Tell me it’s alright, alright How I’m living my life, my life Searching the words all written Seems I’ve just got to live it Tell me what’s it mean, what’s it mean What’s the meaning of life? If we cannot see or believe Do we leave it behind? Tell me what’s it mean, who we be Who we being tonight? Maybe you and me You and me We’re the meaning of… When thoughts come to play We don’t get along Everything I say You think it’s wrong When did we get so serious? You know, we’re not important But it really doesn’t matter And that’s what’s nice

No Games 04:00
What just happened Did I slip and fall away? Now seems like the breath ain’t getting in the way Tell me what you see when you blink And you realise the glitter ain’t in your eyes And I wana be the best thing that ever happened in your life But you gotta tell me You can’t be playing games You made me do this You came here to be friends But now you want it What we gotta do to make us wana stay Didn’t wana lose my name Didn’t wana give up strength Know you’re scared of the change So you gotta tell me Let me break it down… Do you drink from my crown? When I know you’re looking at my future like it’s ours now But I thought differently I’m not one for destiny Though it’s different with you and me What did I say? I could’ve worded it better But thinking about it I don’t really care I don’t really know what I wanted to say A little lack of independence Should’ve known better than to doubt this Forever What does that mean anyway? I’m so glad we’ve got this time together

Nothing wrong with us Just a little bit I won’t hold it against me When I’m giving up Let me roll your paper Put a light to it I won’t hold it against me When I’m giving up to it Can I be honest? I make me conscious of losing my way It might be crazy I feel my tragedy flowing away Even in the dark of days If you see me in the light, just stay You make me feel guilt like no other Couldn’t help but say I’m sorry Didn’t wana rest no more I just wana feel involved Longing for the gold Every time I try Try forgive myself You keep coming back and telling me it’s not good enough And every time I think This way has gotten old There is just another fear of journeys yet untold Don’t wana hear that When you said you weren’t good enough You could be so cruel to me What does that prove? I wana hit that But I don’t wana feel so bad Giving up on feeling it Nothing wrong

By Your Name 04:13
When you can’t see the difference between mine and your ways Is it true to say You’re pulling from nowhere? Again you’re talking only from one place Could’ve used your mind Couldn’t recognise Wouldn’t even hold on my gaze But it’s better to remain In the virtue of your place I just wana know if you would stay You call me by your name If you’re willing to change Are you willing to change? You’re guna wish someday that you started today Your way Every time I’m mumbling I’ve been thinking, I’ve got to get back again Focused on the things that make me feel alive Even if we couldn’t stray the path no more But I wouldn’t run away I’m not clouded by the shame I just wana know the truth you’d say You call me by your name If you’re willing to change Are you willing to change? You’re guna wish someday that you started today Your way You wana pass the blame You’re not willing to change Are you willing to change? You’re guna wish someday that you started today On your way Tell me why you wouldn’t talk Tell me what you wanted to say Wouldn’t wana close you down Wouldn’t wana cause a pain Wouldn’t wana cause you pain Feeling comfortable with you How many thousands have died in vain? When they’ve fallen through the data chain One more time’s too many Wouldn’t want it happening to you One more time How many one more times? I can’t be with you one more time

Make My Way 05:36
Never thought that I could take this over I’m always hurting to save the day And when I’m falling I might think it’s over You take away And now you tell me everything is over I’m always happy to take the blame Never knowing how to say the real things You made me this way And now I’m fine with everything you say ‘Cos I put it to the back of my head I’ve been frightened to stay away But what if I could’ve made a change And now I’ll find a way to take this over I can’t make this on my own You always say I’ll understand when I’m older I’ll make my way Never thought that I could grow stronger I always held myself to blame And when I fell I always found a way But I felt the shame And now I’m finding all the lovers end I can’t bare another darker day And when you, you’re reflected in the water I fade away Now I’ll find a way to take this over Gotta make it on my own You always say I’ll understand when I’m older I’ll make my way I made my way
