I know that you get overwhelmed
But just relax
You feel like time is running out
And you could fall between the cracks
And nothing that you've ever done
Is ever good enough

Breathe in now
Receive another name
Breathe in now
Live without the blame

I kno

Back down, don't you back down baby tonight
Back down, don't you back down baby tonight
Back down, don't you back down baby tonight

Starting out I felt like I had time
To properly prepare for this climb
Now I've just left, I'm out of breath
And falling far behind

They have calculated outcomes we just pray the numbers lied
It's all calm here on the surface but a war rages inside
And she lays still tonight
She lays still tonight

Pull me closer while I count the days
Until I see your face
Until I look into your eyes
When I'm ti

First class, the movie is boring
I look out over the snowy peaks
There's a passenger missing and
The flight attendants are acting rather strange
A stewardess is telling us everything is fine
"Everybody stay calm everything is fine"

Now the rumors rise without delay

Is there an earthquake causing the earth to shake
So violently that I can't stand on my two feet
(Why can't I stand on my two feet?)
It makes my heart break knowing I'm not
What I thought I'd be
I always hoped for greater things
(I know I'm meant for greater things)
B

Here's the dilemma
I'm set on this course I can't escape
Caught in a struggle
Longing for rescue from this place
If I had the power
To fix myself you know I would
So I'll keep on waiting....

The lights go up exposing all that you see
I am a tragedy
Bound by

Choose your subject and fill the frame
Leave the crime scene just as quietly as you came
You've been providing evidence
And all the puzzle pieces fit
You are who they say you are
You've framed yourself in innocence
The jury's out and they're convinced
You are who they

Get to his chest, compress, his heart stopped beating
A breath, resuscitate some feeling
The ambulance will take over from here
Looking down on you in preparation
With mask and tools, this operation
Is your last chance to live so close your eyes
As I'm putting you under</

It's 2 p.m., the clock is screaming
From the walls and from the ceiling
A claustrophobic feeling as it closes on your bed
But that's okay
Forget your problems, find solutions in this bottle
The numbness soon to follow
Should help calm your spinning head

A crash cour

Staring at the bedroom ceiling
Wondering if I'll start dreaming
But my doubts and fears won't let me be
These questions burn I toss and turn in hope of finding peace

Your words keep ringing through my head
Calling me
Calling me
I feel the weight of what you've said<

Eight tired eyes stare squinting
through the early morning sunrise
Twenty-three more exits 'til we're far from home
Arguments and stupid fights
As stop signs turn to city lights
We try to conquer boredom with the radio

Then the lights go up and everything will change

Sound the alarm
The fire's been started
Memories have brought it back
The silence in your head
Broken by the blood shed
Many years in the past
We like to think we've got our heads on straight
But when we fall asleep
They fall right back out of place

These th

Anchors away
This extra weight is pulling down on me
It's drowning me
And now it's overboard with the necessities

There's no room for You to come aboard
I'm setting off, setting off to sea
In a boat that's filled from bow to stern
With things I don't need

The

The night is young, the air is stale
Curbside, crosswalk, and I'm waiting
The cars pass by, the people stare
In one direction and not one notices
When I take a look inside my life
I can see the sadness and the sorrow that resides
When You're not here
The man ignites h

Of course I would rather not try to explain
Where all this is going
I never thought we'd take it so lightly
The high and the mighty
Will all fall the same
Of course I would stick to my story
An obvious warning to heed to the signs
Then everything, it crumbles around m

I checked the map to make sure that I got it right
But still I don't know where You're taking me tonight
And I've tried so hard to mix the old life with the new
But there's not in between if I'm gonna follow You

There's gotta be a difference
It's gotta be significant
If

I've been thinking lately how time keeps moving on
Can't believe the summer's come and gone
I'd hate to think I've wasted chances to convey
What we both know but I don't always say
And I just need to know you're listening

If this is the last song that I sing
Let it be h

The terminal leaves behind
Half-smiles and drying eyes
With ticket clutched in hand
I long to find my way back home
But even from way up here
The view isn't all that clear
What good is this perspective
If I can't tell where to go?

I can't tell where to go

If I talk will you listen
And pay some attention
If it's the last dime you spend?
What good is sound advice when
The sounds of your vices are
The only thing that you comprehend?
I see the tears in your eyes I gotta pull you aside
