T&A 04:32
v1 See you standing there See you look at me I try not to stare But you want me to be Got your hair dyed Got your fake tan Got me looking over All according to plan Playing hard to get With your cigarette But you look and see That all that hasn't got me yet Because I don't care About your clothes and hair Because I've got eye-candy to spare p You could be a mediocre porn star A pretty good stripper A half-naked waitress Flirting for the big tipper But you know that you're more Than just some T&A You don't have to use your body To get your way c You don't have to let them bring you down You know you found the right way on your own v2 On a Saturday You don't go out and play You'd rather sit inside And spend your time another way You'd rather read a book Than find that hot new look It's all so meaningless For all the time that it took Because it doesn't last It fades away so fast And when it's gone you know That all your best's in the past When your conversation Leads to infatuation It's your justification

Gated Youth 03:34
Verse 1: Some people wish for disaster To wash the world away I say they choose their ignorance To the truth of judgement day When it all burns down There's nothing left to say There's no one right or wrong At the end of days Chorus: Survival isn't victory Existence isn't proof Praying for extinction Is the pride of gated youth Maybe in tomorrow we will Find a better way To put the past behind us And live in this today Verse 2: Why not try a little harder Why not see the better half Try not to dwell on your misfortunes Instead look back on it and laugh Whatever got you here Can't have been that bad You can't say you hate everyone With all these friends that you've had
3.
Verse 1: At first it wasn't fully realized Oh my god I don't know what to say This deviation can't be discerned But I don't know another way And every little chance we've taken Every time we've almost lost it all I can't believe a life is ended Over something that can seem so small Chorus: And who will dream the way we do When all is stripped away And who will walk the steps we take Who hears the things we say Verse 2: This isn't something words can translate They'll never understand our bond They fear whatever makes us different It's a wall that they can't get beyond Take my hand And run away I know it hurts But we can't stay I know there's something better out there If we can only find our place Chorus: And who will dream the way we do When all is stripped away And who will walk the steps we take Who hears the things we say 'Cause all that's left is moving on All we've known has gone away And those we love will fight the truth To live another day Bridge: Who will let us fall Who will guide the way And who will understand The promises we've made Chorus: And who will dream the way we do When all is stripped away And who will walk the steps we take Who hears the things we say 'Cause all that's left is moving on All we've known has gone away And those we love will fight the truth To live another day And isn't that our way
4.
Over, Again 03:12
Verse 1: Brushed over, tired eyes You can't disguise Disdain at everything he tries Washed out, broken down You hit the ground But he won't even hear a sound Chorus: Start over, start again Look inside and make amends Find the strength to feel the words You say when you pretend Verse 2: If this is more than you can take Then let go, you let go This isn't something you can fake Oh I know, yeah, I know More than you can do I can promise you You can follow through What you wanted to You can face what you embrace You only have to choose Chorus: Start over, start again Look inside and make amends Find the strength to feel the words You say when you pretend Start over, start again Doesn't mean this has to end Follow this path and make The choices that your heart intends Bridge: One love, one life You can't deny Your heart, your pride You hold inside Get up, get out Get what you want Don't live this lie
5.
Say Oh, Hey 02:53
Verse 1: Say oh, hey How's life today You're looking for a new way To make this feeling stay What a waste Of a new day Don't let it get away This chance to make it great Pre-Chorus: And as the sun goes down We'll make our way around this town Chorus: And we'll let the horizon come Drive the past away, we'll drive the past away And we'll chase the setting sun Tonight is a new day, tonight is a new day Verse 2: Say oh, hey What do you say You left it all behind You cleared it from your mind Just to say I'm fine today No worries anyhow No one can stop us now
6.
Verse 1: Never thought I'd be here Never thought I'd be so deep Never thought I'd get so far From values that I keep Just a little to start with Just a little more For just another dime I'll be anybody's whore And every hour, every minute I'm sinking further, deeper in it I'll worry about it later Feel like shit some other day Chorus: If you keep giving Then I'll keep taking This tender penetration's Got me in over my head And I can't see to the end Verse 2: Why's it gotta be like this Why's it gotta take everything I just can't seem to get this I just wonder what's happening Give us shit like we're selfish Like we want money for nothing Just to validate yourself To feel you're doing something We slave away to fund our dreams But nothing's ever what it seems We can't escape from what it takes To try to get away Bridge: I'm chasing something I can see It's sitting right in front of me I can be what I want to be But then I'll have to pay the fee
7.
v1 This is a wake for the death of self The broken toys left on the shelf The hearts with nothing left to bleed for It's not a question of time and grace The tears are bleeding from her face Your dreams are washing up on the shore p1 And all I'm asking is for a little more Than what we came for And oh, it's what we're living for c And nothing's going to change us Or take away our love Of all the things that make us Who we are and it's because Of all those things we treasure And passions from the start And no one can extinguish What's burning in our hearts v2 And don't ever let down, don't let it go From who you are and what you know It's getting better every day from now So hold onto that rush you get Those things that make you break a sweat It's easy when you already know how
