"Lines"
I know who you are (Say it to me, say it to me)
The devil on your shoulder does it every time
Behind these closed doors (Say it to me, say it to me)
These past 10 years they play, in your mind
Felt this way for so many years, Trapped under the weight of these fears
I don't expect you to understand, I'm giving you all I am
I feel it ache in these bones (As these scars run deep)
And what ashes remain (We scatter out to sea)
Hoping, memories, will find their way to us
Now what's harder to say (Sinks in as ink bleeds through)
While with every page (Becomes the person I knew)
Showing some things, only need trust
You know it's gone too far (What do you see, what do you see)
These cuts and bruises show us every time
If these walls could speak (What do you see, what do you see)
They'd write the memoirs of this tragedy
Felt this way for so many years, Trapped under the weight of these fears
I don't expect you to understand, I'm giving you all I am
I feel it ache in these bones (As these scars run deep)
And what ashes remain (We scatter out to sea)
Hoping, memories, will find their way to us
Now what's harder to say (Sinks in as ink bleeds through)
While with every page (Becomes the person I knew)
Showing some things, only need trust
Felt this way for so many years, Trapped under the weight of these fears
I don't expect you to understand, I'm giving you all I am
I've found a place called home, it sits under this stone
You cast at me back when, You were my best friend
I've found a place called home, it sits under this stone
You cast at me back when, You were my best friend

It feels so good to hear your voice again (Telling me that I'm a man)
To plant my feet on solid ground, to know just where I stand
To feel a worth when I wake up (To know I am always enough)
No matter what, it's who I am, no matter what, I know I can
There's only so much I can do, but I'd do it all for you
And when I hear that bell I know, it's all worth fighting for you
I know that everything is a test of faith (Despite the difference we relate)
A stronger bond, with stronger ties, to see through open eyes
We've judged this book too many times
It's time we read between the lines
(Chorus)
I'm taking back everything (and for what it's worth)
Every scar that it brings (I fought to deserve)
It's blood, sweat, and tears what show that
This heart won't quit or turn back

I suspect, self respect, is at an all time low
You're not well, I can tell, by how you carry your
Self absorbed, past comprehension, this is a life lesson
You said you wanted it all, so take the blame and the fall
Forget the fakes in this town
Sell yourself short and see, who's laughing now
When there is no one around
Once best friends, like you said, it was the only way
One last chance, giving up now, on everything
Say something fast and quick, you know that you need this
Just like a sinking ship, you've already hit bottom. You!
(Chorus)
I won't laugh at you, no i won't, i won't
I won't laugh at you, no i won't, i won't
I won't laugh at you, no i won't, i won't, laugh!

This is where we let our guard down (I've got my sights on you)
Just another vacant smile (Still without a clue)
Tell me where the story left off (Where it all began)
I can feel my heart is changing (I'm coming back again)
I'm taking back my life tonight
This is where I draw the line (Don't let me go)
I'm still hanging on
Tell me what's wrong and what's right
This is where I stand tonight (Don't let me go)
I'm still hanging on
Love! Well is it something you're willing to fight for?
Faith! Well is it something you're willing to die for?
Hope! It's always there for the bad and the good times
Love can conquer anything
(Chorus)
I'm giving back my life tonight
This is where I make things right.

Walls

Straighten up, I've had enough, we're just wasting our time
You know what's on my mind (something else on standby)
I'm not at fault, you're someone else, but in our grief I'll find help
Through late night walks (covered in your suspense)
Does it make you want me more, when I'm outside of your door
And I scream, I don't want this anymore
Holding it here cause we're never the same
we live in the past, when you call out my name
but you're not there, and you don't care
We've severed enough and brought promise to blame
we comfort ourselves in these blankets of shame
cos you're not there, and you don't care
Culprit, you label me but I am more of a, victim, the part I play so easily and while I
crawl under your skin (and lay on someone else's)
have we reached that point yet, we can't admit it.
(Pre-Chorus and Chorus)
If walls could speak, they'd say your name
you'll turn to look, then run away
If walls could speak, they'd say your name
you'll turn to look, and run away
If walls could scream, they'd shout your name
i'll turn to look, and run your way
If walls could scream,they'd shout your name
i'll turn to look, and run away
