In Your Closet

Pick myself up from your floor again
wipe the cobwebs from my face
Are you screaming at your shoes again?
You've got your foot up in your face
You are down to your last two cents
Are you sure you want to give them to me?
Your words won't change a thing
I know you, know you, know you, know your story
Chorus:
You've got your foot in your mouth
you think you're playing the crowd
I am watching from the corner
You think you own it
hold your head up so high and so proud
But I've seen you in your closet
In your skeleton closet
Dust the secrets off your shelf again
not sure why I hang around
You are staring in the mirror again
think you're the star?
You're just a clown
you are close to crossing the line
are you sure you want to lie to me?
Your prayers won't change anything
I told you, I told you told you will be sorry
Chorus
Bridge:
You've got a cigarette hanging from the corner of your mouth
How do you keep it there without burning yourself?
Hod do you stay so self-righteous with your forked tongue? Your you're forked tongue
Chorus

Autumn Song
05:18

Take me down to the old broken bridge
Where we used to cross to the other side
And play around in autumn leaves
And we'd listen to each other breathe
And we'd listen to our hearts beat
We held each other close
We watched the clouds dance in the sky
The saddest lullaby making angels cry
Their teardrops falling on your face
With autumn, we were washed away
With autumn, we faded into grey
I remember those sweet days
And how it felt to wander
I remember those cool nights
And how it felt to hold you
Hold you
So meet me down by the old broken bridge
Where we used to cross to the other side
And play around in autumn leaves
And we'll listen to each other breathe
And we'll listen to our hearts beat
And we'll listen to each other breathe
And we'll listen to our hearts beat

A Little Piece of Drama
04:22

Time is a man-made illusion
Makes us run late for all the things we hold important
Just sit back and enjoy the stars tonight
They're so small but burn so bright
I'm glad you're here beside me
Holding hands, I'll never let you go
I wake up
And I reach for you once more
But I can't ignore
This cold and empty space beside me
It kicks in
That you weren't with me last night
Or the nights before
You're gone and that's the way the cards play
A perfect picture state of loneliness
I can feel the cold wind's grace
Feels like you're touching my face
Reminds me of the good times we once had
Then my heart had sunk
Because of a stupid drunk
Who lost control
In my picture perfect world
My heart was in a dark place for some time
Revenge was on my mind
I never thought I'd feel this
I watched you as you went home to your wife
And I went back to my empty life
Because of you
I've had these changes that I'm forced to use
I can feel the cold wind's grace
Feels like you're touching my face
Reminds me of the good times we once had
Then I heard a voice
Telling me to make a choice
To live in pain
Or to forgive your own mistakes

Dear Sir

We've never met but like all the rest
I have listened to you, I know your face
And with your words you've changed so many lives
Can you hear me?
And now that you're gone, we can still hear your voice
We can ponder your life, ponder your choice
And with all your choices you've changed many lives
Did you know this?
And with every note they hear, they wonder the truth
Was it somebody else, or was it just you?
Did you look at your life, did it all hurt too much?
And was it better to burn out than fade away?
I know what it's like to want to feel numb
And just shut out the world just so you can go on
I understand that it all felt like a lie
Did you have to leave?
Could you tell me the truth please, it's still on my mind
How it all fell apart, we are still so blind
There's so many rumours, can't pick one from the next
Did you know this?
And with every song you sing, we search for the truth
Was it somebody else, or was it just you?
Did you look at your life, did it all hurt too much?
Or was it somebody else?
And with every note they hear they wonder the truth
Was it somebody else, or was it just you?
Did you look at your life, did it burn deep inside?
And was it better to burn out than fade away?
We've never met but like all the rest
I have listened to you, I know your face
And with your words you've changed so many lives
Can you hear me?

Be Alright
03:10

Crazy times are ahead
And you know it's always said
That everything will be alright
Lose your friend, skin your knee
Just wait and you will see
That everything will be alright
Populations are building
And the anger at the man keeps us growing
Our hands are bound
Our eyes blindfolded
Take the time, try not to lose sight
We'll make it through and it will be alright
Competition in the air
And the game is never fair
But everything will be alright
Owe some money to the mob
Lose your house and lose your job
But everything will be alright
It's hard to find someone who sees
Through the pain and misery
Still somehow it will be OK
We'll make it through to another day
Yeah, somehow it will be alright
Populations are building
And the anger at the man keeps us growing
Our hands are bound
Our eyes blindfolded
Take the time, try not to lose sight
We'll make it through and it will be alright
Asteroids, monster storms
Hurricanes, typhoons and bombs
Seems like everybody's so uptight
And now the world is at an end
But at least I'm with my friends
Still I know, it's gonna be alright
