I still recall the taste of your tears

Echoing your voice just like the ringing in my ears

My favorite dreams of you still wash ashore

Scraping through my head 'till I don't want to sleep anymore

Come on tell me

Make this all go away

You make this all go away

I'm down to just one thing

And I'm starting to scare myself

Make this all go away

You make this all go way

I just want something

I just want something I can never have

You always were the one to show me how

Back then I couldn't do the things that I can do now

This is slowly taking me apart

Grey would be the color if I had a heart

I just want something I can never have

In this place it seems like such a shame

Though it all looks different now, I know it's still the same

Everywhere I look you're all I see

Just a fading fucking reminder of who I used to be

Come on tell me

Make this all go away

You make this all go away

I'm down to just one thing

And I'm starting to scare myself

Make this all go away

You make this all go way

I just want something

I just want something I can never have

I just want something I can never have

Think I know what you meant

That night on my bed

Still picking at this scab

I wish you were dead

You sweet and Perry Ellis

Just stains on my sheets

The Fragile                                                                                 oben

She shines

In a world of ugliness

She matters

When everything is meaningless

Fragile

She doesn't see her beauty

She tries to get away

Sometimes

It's just that nothing seems worth saving

I can't watch her slip away

I wont let you fall apart

She reads the minds of all the people as they pass her by

Hoping someone can see

If I could fix myself I'd -

But it's too late for me

I wont let you fall apart

We'll find the perfect place to go where we can run and hide

I'll build a wall and we can keep them on the other side

...but they keep waiting

...and picking...

It's something I have to do

I was there, too

Before everything else

I was like you

The Becoming                                                                          oben

I beat my machine it's a part of me it's inside of me

I'm stuck in this dream it's changing me I am becoming

The me that you know he had some second thoughts

He's covered with scabs he is broken and sore

The me that you know he doesn't come around much

That part of me isn't here anymore

All pain disappears it's the nature of my circuitry

Drowns out all I hear no escape from this my new consciousness

The me that you know he used to have feelings

But the blood has stopped pumping and he's left to decay

The me that you know is now made up of wires

And even when I'm right with you I'm so far away

I can try to get away but I've strapped myself in

I can try to scratch away the sound in my ears

I can see it killing away all of my bad parts

I don't want to listen but it's all to clear

Hiding backwards inside of me I feel so unafraid

Annie, hold a little tighter I might just slip away

It wont give up it wants me dead

Goddamn this noise inside my head

The Day The World Went Away                                            oben

I'd listen to the words he'd say

But in his voice I heard decay

The plastic face forced to portray

All the insides left cold and gray

There is a place that still remains

It eats the fear it eats the pain

The sweetest price he'll have to pay

The day the whole world went away

Na na nah

Na na na, nah

Na na nah

Na na na, nah

And All That Could Have Been                                               oben

Breeze still carries the sound

Maybe I'll disappear

Tracks will fade in the snow

You won't find me here

Ice is starting to form

Ending what had begun

I am locked in my head

With what I've done

I know you tried to rescue me

Didn't let anyone get in

Left with a trace of all that was

And all that could have been

Please

Take this

And run far away

Far away from me

I am

Tainted

The two of us

We're never meant to be

All these

Pieces

And promises and left behinds

If only I could see

In my

Nothing

You meant everything

Everything to me

Gone fading everything

And all that could have been

Please

Take this

And run far away

Far as you can see

I am

Tainted

And happiness and peace of mind

We're never meant for me

All these

Pieces

And promises and left behinds

If only I could see

In my

Nothing

You meant everything

Everything to me
