One More Round

This time I won't let you down,
This time around I have just what it takes,
Another day, another go,
I'm gonna show I learned from my mistakes.
Just one more round
I need to understand that it's not getting any better,
Just one more time
I try to remind myself it doesn't really matter.
I know it's not so long ago,
I stooped so low but that's all in the past,
So won't you give me one last chance,
I'm gonna prove to you that I will last.
Just one more round
I need to understand that it's not getting any better.
Just one more time
I try to remind myself it doesn't really matter.
There goes my chance to make it right,
My good intentions out of sight,
For me it's all the same,
I won't say I'm sorry,
Just give me one last chance to feel the pain.

Sight & Sound

You got a problem, the end is near,
With all the answers that you don't wanna hear,
The fight you're losing inside your mind,
And all the proving that you're one of a kind.
Everybody's trying not to be themselves,
Longing to be someone else,
All this time you try so hard.
You lift 'em up and then you tear 'em down,
The shit you've lost is the shit that you have found,
What have you become? Just sight and sound,
Is it too late to turn everything around?
Starting over is not a crime,
To live in past, that's just wasting my time,
As you get older, you start to crack,
When I look forward, I can never go back.
Everybody's trying not to be themselves,
Longing to be someone else,
All this time you play your part.
You lift 'em up and then you tear 'em down,
The shit you've lost is the shit that you have found,
What have you become? Just sight and sound,
Is it too late to turn everything around?
They said the good times will be back, I know,
It's so easy to see all in white and black, let go,
You never wanted to give up so fucking fast,
But it's all in the past now.
And I feel (oh I feel),
it's not real (you're not real),
Just take it back again and you got a deal.
You lift 'em up and then you tear 'em down,
The shit you've lost is the shit that you have found,
What have you become? Just sight and sound,
Is it too late to turn everything around?
You lift me up so you can bring me down,
For all I know I'm forever northwest bound,
What have we become? Just sight and sound,
But it's not too late to turn everything around.
It's not too late to turn it all around.

You Don't Belong

You seem to know your way around the town,
Pain and suffering won't get you on the ground,
You still don't show the signs of breaking down,
You start to drown.
All this emptiness inside,
You've been holding so long,
All these doors are open wide,
But you don't belong.
It's been a long time since you fell apart,
But it wasn't so damn easy from the start,
You need to break out, then you're gonna see,
You're running free.
All this emptiness inside,
You've been holding so long,
All these doors are open wide,
But you don't belong.

Party's Over

Everybody's so far away,
Telling you to seize the day,
They're pretending to be okay,
But they are trying so hard.
Seems to you that it's not real,
Waking up you start to feel
Angry, don't wanna kneel,
You don't wanna be playing your part.
The party's over - time to go back home,
The party's over - but you are all alone and still you're
Taking way less than you give,
You start to feel like,
This is not the way you wanna live.
You recall not feeling strong?
They were playing you all along,
You were dancing to their song,
Your defeat is the price that you pay.
Nobody's having any fun,
Party's over but you're not done,
If you give up, they have won,
But you're finally breaking away.
The party's over - time to go back home,
The party's over - but you are all alone and still you're
Taking way less than you give,
You start to feel like,
This is not the way you wanna live.
This is your final call,
Don't let them hear you fall,
Your back against the wall.
The party's over - time to go back home,
The party's over - but you are all alone and still you're
Taking way less than you give,
You start to feel like,
This is not the way you wanna live.
