OPEN
YOUR EYES
Traduction
As I walk
along these streets
I see a man that walks alone
Distant echo of peoples feet
He has no place to call his
own
A shot rings out from a roof over
head
A crackhead asks for change
nearby
An old man lies in an alleyway
dead
A little girl lost just stands
there and cries
Refrain:
What would you do, if it was
you?
Would you take everything for
granted like you do?
A boy just 13 on the corner for
sale
Swallows his pride for another
hit
Overpopulation there's no room in
jail
And most of you don't give a
shit
That your daughters are porno
stars and
Your sons sell death to kids
You're so lost in your little
worlds
Your little worlds you'll never
fix
Refrain
You turn away
As I walk along these streets
Soaking up the acid rain
Underneath the taxi cabs
I hear the streets cry out in
vain

PRESSURE
Traduction
I just need
this to be alright
I can't feel this another
night
I can't take this I come
unglued
I might breakdown in front of
you
Necessary to medicate
I'm not sleeping, can't stay
awake
Refrain:
Can't see through this
Too much pressure
Drowning in this
Too much pressure
If you need me I'll be here
Half unconscious to escape my
fear
I can't take this I come
unglued
I might breakdown in front of
you
Necessary to medicate
I'm not sleeping, can't stay
awake
Refrain
My head hurts this shit isn't
getting me high
My chest is so tight, am I going
to die
My stomach's in knots and the
room starts to spin
As I wait for this valium to
slowly kick in
Refrain

FADE
Traduction
I try to
breathe
Memories overtaking me
I try to face them but
The thought is too much to
conceive
I only know that I can change
Everything else just stays the
same
So now I step out of the darkness
that my life became cause
Refrain:
I just needed someone to talk
to
You were just to busy with
yourself
You were never there for me
To express how I felt
I just stuffed it down
Now I'm older and I feel like
I could let some of this anger
fade
But it seems the surface I am
scratching
Is the bed that I have made
So where were you?
When all this I was going
through
You never took the time
To ask me just what you could
do
I only know that I can change
Everything else just stays the
same
So now I step out of the darkness
that my life became cause
Refrain
I never meant to fade (away)
I never meant to fade

IT'S
BEEN A WHILE
Traduction
And it's been
awhile
Since I could hold my head up
high
And it's been awhile
Since I first saw you
And it's been awhile
Since I could stand on my own two
feet again
And it's been awhile
Since I could call you
Refrain
And everything I can remember
As fucked up as it all may
seem
And consequences that are
rendered
I stretch myself beyond my
means
And it's been awhile
Since I can say that I wasn't
addicted
And it's been awhile
Since I can say I love myself
aswell
And it's been awhile
Since I've gone and fucked things
up just like I always do
And it's been awhile
But all that shit seems to
disappear when I'm with you
Refrain
Why must I feel this way?
Just make this go away
Just one more peaceful day
And it's been awhile
Since I could look at myself
straight
And it's been awhile
Since I said I'm sorry
And it's been awhile
Since I've seen the way the
candles light your face
And it's been awhile
But I can still remember just the
way you taste
Refrain
And it's been awhile
Since I could hold my head up
high
And it's been awhile
Since I said I'm sorry

CHANGE
Traduction
If ever you
had said to me before that I
would live this life
That I am living now I guess it's
all so strange
To feel the way I do inside
But have so much that I could
feel some pride for in my
life
So why is it that I feel like
this
Refrain:
How do I feel? I've been here
before, I've felt this
Retreat to a place, a place
within me, I need this
Keep it all down, bottled inside,
it breaks me
To torment again and torture me
like it used to
I try and try to break away from
all the hate I'm feeling
For every one of you that's ever
done me wrong
I need to justify the reasons for
the way I'm living
I guess I can't cause I don't
feel like I deserve
Refrain
So now the waves they have
subsided and my soul is
bleeding
I can't take away all the shame I
feel forgive me

CAN'T
BELIEVE
Traduction
Respect
Respect what is found
Respect should be abound
Respect everything that you
leave
I can't believe
Refrain:
I can't believe
And I, I can't believe
I can't believe all the
travesty
Surrounding me, I want to
flee
I want to flee from
everything
In front of me here
Refrain
Never again, trusted in you
Fuck everything that you think I
should be
I stand, never again, never
again

EPIPHANY
Traduction
Your words to
me just a whisper
Your faces so unclear
I try to pay attention
Your words just disappear
Refrain:
Cause it's always raining in my
head
Forget all the things I should
have said
So I speak to you in riddles
Cause my words get in my way
I smoke the whole thing to my
head
And feel it wash away
Cause I can't take anymore of
this
I want to come apart
Or dig myself a little hole
Inside your precious heart
Refrain
I am nothing more than
A little boy inside
That cries out for attention
Yet I always try to hide
Cause I talk to you like
children
Though I don't know how I
feel
But I know I'll do the right
thing
If the right thing is
revealed
Refrain

SUFFER
Traduction
The more you
see the more you do
The television's feeding you
With what you want to hear
Anger and fear
Because you suffer
The hate you feel won't go
away
You're all programmed to feel
this way
To live another day within a
world
That loves to suffer
Refrain:
And then I come to find
everything's OK
Seen this all before
But that was yesterday
I try to walk right through
The messes that I've made
Just let me enjoy
The life here that I've made
Refrain
I've tried to give this all to
you
Can't take anymore to do
With this it hurts inside
I know why I hide
Cause I suffer
I tried to keep it all inside
Didn't leave me too much
pride
I forced it all down inside
Forced myself
To make me suffer
Refrain
And then I come to
find

WARM
PLACE SAFE
Traduction
Another day
inside my world
I'm married to you and this
road
A road that never lets me
sleep
Theres no way to escape the
demons I am forced to keep
Refrain:
And then I find you here
Through your eyes
Everything's clear
And I'm home
Inside your arms
But I'm alone for now
I mean the best with what I
say
It doesn't always sound that
way
I never learned to work things
out
Cause in my family all we ever
seem to do is shout
Refrain
And I try to sleep
The drugs I take
Are killing me
I think of you
To ease my pain
But you're so far
Now it's time to say goodbye
I love you baby please don't
cry

FOR
YOU
Traduction
To my mother,
to my father
It's your son or it's your
daughter
Are my screams loud enough for
you to hear me?
Should I turn this up for
you?
Refrain:
Cause I sit locked inside my
head
Remembering everything you've
said
This silence gets us nowhwere
Gets us nowhere way too fast
The silence is what kills me
I need someone here to help
me
But you don't know how to
listen
And let me make my decisions
Refrain
All your insults and your
curses
Make me feel like I'm not a
person
And I feel like
I am nothing
But you made me
So do something
Cause I'm fucked up
Because you are
Need attention
Attention you couldn't
give

OUTSIDE
Traduction
And you, bring
me to my knees, again
All the times, that I could beg
you please, in vain
All the times, that I felt
insecure, for you
And I leave, my burdens at the
door
Refrain:
But I'm on the outside
And I'm looking in
I can see through you
See your true colors
Cause inside your ugly
Your ugly like me
I can see through you
See to the real you
All the times that I felt like
this won't end, it's for you
And I taste what I could never
have, it was from you
All the times that I've tried my
intentions full of pride
But I waste more time than
anyone
Refrain
All the times, that I've
cried
All this wasted, it's all
inside
And I feel, all this pain
Stuffed it down, it's back
again
And I lie, here in bed
All alone, I can't mend
But I feel, tomorrow will be
OK

WASTE
Traduction
Your mother
came up to me
She wanted answers only she
should know
Only she should know
It wasn't easy to deal
With the tears that rolled down
her face
I had no answers cause I didn't
even know you
Refrain:
But these words
They can't replace
The life you..
The life you waste
How could you paint this
picture?
With life as bad as it should
seem
That there were no more options
for you
I can't explain how I feel
I've been there many times
before
I've tasted the cold steel of my
life crashing down before me
Refrain
Did Daddy not love you?
Or did he love you just too
much?
Did he control you?
Did he live through you at your
cost?
Did he leave no questions for you
to answer on your own?
Well fuck that!
And fuck her!
And fuck him!
And fuck you!
For not having the strength in
your heart to pull through!
I've had doubts!
I have failed!
I've fucked up!
I've had plans!
Doesn't mean I should take my
life with my own hands!
Refrain

TAKE
IT
Traduction
I feel like
this won't go away
No matter how hard I try to
Squeeze my eyes shut so i can't
see the pain
In you this pain in me
In me
Refrain:
Everything that I can say to
you
Won't help you
Everything you need is right in
front of you
Just take it
I know that I'm really not
here
To represent what I'm not
Clear about in my head
sometimes
I feel fucked up just like you
do
Like you do
Refrain
Try to make it through the daily
pain
That you feel
Maybe tomorrow won't be so
bad
I know it
Cause I once felt that way
Nothing I could say
Made it go away
I lived through this
I still feel this
I just live for my tomorrow
Make it go away
Just make it go away
She'll make it go away
