This time around

I'm stronger than these chains that bind me, but the earth below is so inviting here, in these times
Prevailing winds will move me on ward, even when I can't move forward here... In these times

Of all the things I've come to know of life, love and letting go I know, it won't get easier
Of all the things I've learned in life like letting go of what's not mine I know.... It won't get easier

Blackened eyes and blood soaked hands are nearly what defines a man these days, in our ways
A thousand years a thousand dreams blown away like gasoline again, it's our sins
On and on the story goes, will it end? Somebodys got to know, because I've let go
On and on we'll raise them well, flags held high we'll give them hell this time... In these times!!

Of all the things I've come to know of life, love and letting go I know, it won't get easier
Of all the things I've learned in life like letting go of what's not mine I know.... It won't get easier

My Angel will forgive me, this I know
I'll pray for pain to go away and give me peace of mind
My angel will forgive me this I know
I'll pray for pain to go away... Ya

Of all the things I've come to know of life, love and letting go I know, it won't get easier
Of all the things I've learned in life like letting go of what's not mine I know.... It won't get easier

Ya, this time Around
It won't get any easier
Ya.. This time around
It won't get any easier
This time around

Pain in paradise

Never lended me a shoulder

so i can’t be held responsible

when these skies come falling

funny how they fall upon these shoulders

did I always mean so little

you could sum me all up in a letter

and I can’t be your place here in the sun

and the angels call your name

screaming out in vain

when you’ve lived with sacrifice

you’ve lived with pain in paradise

And the angels call to you

When this bottle gets me through

And I long to fill those eyes

But its pain in paradise

How can this all be over

I ask myself time and again

I’m slowly losing this battle with

These voices inside of my head

Just another chapter in

This tragedy that I call life

And I can’t be your place here in the sun

and the angels call your name

screaming out in vain

when you’ve lived with sacrifice

you’ve lived with pain in paradise

And the angels call to you

When this bottle gets me through

And I long to fill those eyes

But its pain in paradise

Headed for a breakdown

And no one’s ever around

So I guess that I’ll carry on

With these demons that I hide

and the angels call your name

screaming out in vain

when you’ve lived with sacrifice

you’ve lived with pain in paradise

And the angels call to you

When this bottle gets me through

And I long to fill those eyes

But its pain in paradise

Shallow grave

Cover it up with one more coat

You’ve never been good at letting go

Live your life in clouds and rain

Love the problem love the pain

Who will you blame for

These shallow graves you live in

Who’s gonna be there until the end

X2

Live your life in all these lies

Hide from friends and alibis

Lock yourself away inside

Run you coward run and hide

Who will you blame for

These shallow graves you live in

Who’s gonna be there until the end

X2

Yesterday

Does it take your breath away

When you look into these eyes

And see yourself staring back

But the cradle still cries

Does it take your breath away

When you see me all the time

And say the words I love you

Followed by goodbye

Even hearts can turn to stone

I won’t give this all away

And sacrifice this life

To bring back yesterday

Ever even summer turns to snow

Theres words we’d never say

And sacrifice this pride

To bring back yesterday

Does it take your breath away

When you look into these eyes

And see this life we’re living

Is built on lies

Does it take you breath away

When its written on my face

And everything we wished we’d say

And the life we chase

Even hearts can turn to stone

I wont give this all away

And sacrifice this life

To bring back yesterday

Ever even summer turns to snow

Theres words we’d never say

And sacrifice this pride

To bring back yesterday

Again

You say the words

That break me down the most

Staring out this window

Left behind by most

All that I am

And all I’ll ever be

Is dying right beside you

And it’s killing me

I rest my fate

On your name

And it’s a crying shame

Again

And now I rest my face

On your grave

And it’s a crying shame

Again

You say the lies

That break the life I live

Taking all I am

And all I have to give

Each and every fight

Is driving me insane

Killing our tomorrow

Is in your veins

I rest my fate

On your name

And it’s a crying shame

Again

And now I rest my face

On your grave

And it’s a crying shame

Again
