There's no trying to please you (Pre Chorus) and theres you Anavrin, Won't you come right in? Just a piece of skin (Chorus) Then you fantasize about my life you can have it all just leave my things outside you can take me down if you would like but I know all the monsters that you keep inside Why can't I make up my mind Always choosing to be blind it's so hard to feel kind And if you could only set me free it's ok to watch me bleed cause I'm so hard to please (Pre Chorus) and theres you Anavrin, Won't you come right in? Just a piece of skin (Chorus) Then you fantasize about my life you can have it all just leave my things outside you can take me down if you would like but I know all the monsters that you keep inside (solo) (Pre Chorus) and theres you Anavrin, Won't you come right in?

Fallen 03:55
Down down I go in this world empty sorrowing soul to hard that I pulled they keep pushing me down no matter where I go Go now and make your stand I’ll be right here with you standing hand in hand Cause we all help ourselves to be victims of this world as well (Chorus) Why have you fallen away I can’t deal with this all today Won’t you please set me free again cause you’ll never Never let me in Well my legs shake where now I go its this illness again makes me so unstable In my mind the things I can not show only would deepen this hole So I stand stand with shovel in hand trying fill these holes up that I dug with these hands But there’s no use to this plan the flood waters come up again (Chorus) Why have you fallen away I can’t deal with this all today Won’t you please set me free again cause you’ll never Never let me in (Solo) Well my pain lessens as I go so so I hold my head high as high as it goes In a world so unsure sureness is bland as we know And this hope hope hope that I have is that some day this pain it wont be quite as bad And I’ll lay on my back and thank god the day I died I came back (Chorus) Why have you fallen away I can’t deal with this all today Won’t you please set me free again cause you’ll never Never let me in

Down 02:47
Broke another mirror age another year Burning in burning out do be sincere A candle burns in turn while the world goes round don’t bring me up when I am down (Chorus) With the seeds you sow you better let’em go let’em spin their webs let’em be alone Be world renown this is what I found follow me my love I’ll bring you down (Chorus) Lay upon your grave not the one I saved the short road to hell is the one you paved Buried in the ground in your funeral gown save a place for me cause I’m the next one down

Just another one of these days don’t wanna get up don’t wanna stay awake Pull the blanket over my head close my eyes and try to sleep instead (Chorus) Can you help to wash away these tears from my eyes Can you hold my hand and lead me through this ordinary life Flood gates have opened now and I am left hear to drown No one seems close right now its hard to feel so alone (Chorus) Can you help to wash away these tears from my eyes Can you hold my hand and lead me through this ordinary life Don’t forget to take your pills in time you be normal like the rest I can’t deal with this right now inside my head is such a mess (Chorus) Can you help to wash away these tears from my eyes Can you hold my hand and lead me through this ordinary life

Red and white its my secret It’s alright it’s your sequence Friends in crime with no reason Old road nine any season (Chorus) I couldn’t help myself for you I’d do anything cause I’m the fool Loser king upon my thrown Picked up with my stitches sown Cold blood fight with no reason Any night I’d go with them But look at now at these assholes Lets run’em down in bloody tackles

Pick up the phone I know you’re there all alone I need a ride home I’ve been here for way to long What kind of friend are you? What kind of friend are you? I’m here all alone so pick up the god damn phone Turn off your screen you know it’s only me Quit leading me on I know you’re there all alone What kind of friend are you? What kind of friend are you? I’m here all alone so pick up the god damn phone
