Two songs have captured my attention.
One (and
Two):
I can't believe how far I've come
Now watch me stumble and come undone
If you take away these memories
All that's left is just me
Cos I don't want this
And I don't need this
And I don't feel this
It seems that even though she's with me I can't shake this
I can't fake this
And I won't take this
Anymore.
So you choose to break my heart
I should have seen this from this start
I'm haunted by your apathy
All that's left is killing me
Cos I don't want this
And I don't need this
And I don't feel this
It seems that even though she's with me I can't shake this
I can't fake this
And I won't take this
Anymore.
You believe in the way you choose to be
I've always had to see the brighter side of this so I don't loose my faith
Now the sun has gone away
It's getting colder every day
So before I freeze to death there's something I should say
I don't want this
I don't need this
And I don't feel this
It seems that even though she's with me I can't shake this
And I can't fake this
And I won't take this
Though you say you understand you still won't face this
Can't erase this
I won't embrace this
Anymore.
Two:
So long ago, I don't remember when
That's when they say I lost my only friend
Well they said she died easy of a broken heart disease
As I listened through the cemetery trees
I seen the sun comin' up at the funeral at dawn
The long broken arm of human law
Now it always seemed such a waste
She always had a pretty face
So I wondered how she hung around this place
Chorus:
Hey, come on try a little
Nothing is forever
There's got to be something better than
In the middle
But me & Cinderella,
We put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight
She said it's cold
It feels like Independence Day
And I can't break away from this parade
But there's got to be an opening
Somewhere here in front of me
Through this maze of ugliness and greed
And I seen the sun up ahead
At the county line bridge
Sayin' all there's good and nothingness is dead
We'll run until she's out of breath
She ran until there's nothin' left
She hit the end-it's just her window ledge
(chorus)
Well this place is old
It feels just like a beat up truck
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn
Well it smells of cheap wine and cigarettes
This place is always such a mess
Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn
I'm so alone, and I feel just like somebody else
Man, I ain't changed, but I know I ain't the same
But somewhere here in between the city walls of dyin' dreams
I think her death it must be killin' me
(chorus)
