Piece of Me 02:52
You took a piece of me. I still don't believe it. I still can't believe it. I didn't know that I needed it. You took a piece of me. No way to say if you can't handle it. You want to get out of this. You want to get out of this. Too young for one so just throw it away. Just tear it right out of here. Just tear it right out of here. Don't sleep. Don't eat. Just try to hide everything. You hid it from everybody. You even hid it from me. No chance to think about the consequence. You've got to get out of this. You've got to get out of this. You found it but now you don't want it, so now you just want to get rid of it all.

Kelly's Song 03:39
Do you remember when we used to lay together on the coldest days and nights in the middle of December? When you stayed I always felt much better, so you stayed the night. Do you remember when I almost lost my head? You came to me and told me everything I needed said. As we'd lay on a couch we made a bed. It was perfect then. So let me know Let me know, Let me know Is there any way to go back to the way things used to be? I just want you here with me. Yeah, you were the one; I just didn't know it. Let me know, Let me know Is there any way to show how my heart would skip a beat? Now I finally see, that you were the one; I just didn't know it then. Do you remember when we used to lay like lovers? We both got spun and we both moved on and found ourselves some others As I lay here with her under covers, I still think of you.

Why did I, did I ever believe that I could make you believe in you Why did I, did I ever believe that I could ever When you don't believe in anything Don't act like the world is all against you when you don't even try. The simplest step towards hope has come and you have let it pass by. Why would you ever want to change when pity is how you survive? No point to a brand new you when you claim yourself empty inside. No insight worth hearing, easier to block out the sounds. No chance of moving forward. It's simpler just do live in your bounds. Kept concepts makes mindsets. Blame the world for holding you down. Negation of motivation. Brand new excuses can always be found.

The Rising 04:01
Shut off the mind but the mind keeps thinking. Shut off the mind but the head keeps spinning. Circles around, can't shut down these feelings. You are who you are but that's not going to make you a star. Shut off the sound but the voices sneak in. Cut out the world but it just creeps back in. You are who you are and you'd like to believe it. You are who you are but do you really believe what you say? Fall out of love with the ones you stayed with. Fall out of love with the friends you now dismiss. Wasted so much of a life on this mess. I've got to get rid of the faces on this list. I'm free to be whoever I want to be, see whoever I want to see, and listen to the sounds that let me know I'm free To break from the things that bind the negative within my mind and throw it all away. That's how I want to stay. Cursed by the thoughts that you used to live by. Cursed by the thoughts that return you to where you were. Always the hope to revoke your past life. Always the hope to move to what you prefer. Constantly crushed by the thoughts of failure. Constantly crushed by the fear that swells inside. What is the point if it all just scares you? What is the point if you're always going to hide? Your reason is lost when you have no ego. Your ego is lost when opinions change your fate. Always afraid of the things we don't know. Always afraid we'll become what we now hate.

I'm Sorry 03:25
I'm sorry that I missed out on our last vacation and I wonder who you kissed at the last celebration of the last new year. I'm sorry that I couldn’t be there. I always thought if I said that I loved you, you would come back to me and we'd go right back to the way things have always been. You said you'd always love me back then. Well I know that I've been gone and I should have taken you with me. And with all that I've done, I'm begging the chance to show you now that I see. How can I prove to you now that all that I say, it's time you should believe. If all hope is gone then there's no reason for me to breathe. I wish I could take back each moment separated and return to the memories that I let fade like old pictures on the wall. Go back to when you used to take my calls. The voice that I hear would be all that I needed. To take that away it makes me feel so cheated. I just need that back again Can I ever get things back to then? I'm sorry that I missed out on our last vacation. I wonder who you kissed at the last celebration of the last new year. I'm sorry that i couldn’t be there. And if I could, I would have been there. I would have been there.

Tell me what you want from me now. Tell me what you want from this moment. I've been here before. Our bodies entwined, all for the moment. I've been here before. You're here by my side. Is it only tonight? Is it over tonight? One look was all I needed to know, that I needed to know you. Needed to know who you are, you were. You seem existential. I swear when I stare, you've got such potential to come true in the ways that I need you to be. I turn to a puddle when you come up beside me and I lose all control when you offer your body. So will you stay here next to mine? I get lost in my thoughts every time you look at me. Lost in my thoughts because you own them completely. You know you own me completely. I can tell in your eyes that you're ready to go. Is it something that I said that got inside your head? From the floor to the door, I can see your eyes wandering. From the floor to the door, I'm just now wondering if you leave me will I ever see you again? I've been here before. Our bodies in entwined, all for the moment.

Once Again 02:42
Never really got the chance to know. Never really got to let it go. Always wanted just a chance to show all that I could be. Always wanted just a chance to say the perfect words but they fade away. Never really tried to seize the day to what it should be. I must do all I can to finally win. I will do whatever it takes until the end. Although I know it might be spinning me, dizzily, over once again. Is it I was simply built to fail? Build and army just to see them bail. Get on track but then off the rail before it could be. Start a show but then the curtains close. Everytime I think the feeling goes, the desire for the moment grows to what it should be.

Well, not gonna post the lyrics here. This song is originally written by the band Korn. If you don't know the lyrics, you're probably too young. If you've never heard the original, we highly suggest you go purchase Korn's "Follow the Leader." You can find it here: http://www.amazon.com/Follow-Leader-Korn/dp/B000009QOR/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1336080539&sr=8-1

You can't hide. I can see behind your eyes, the secrets that you keep from me. You think yourself so smart you've been playing from the start, but this game was never meant to be. Everytime I see you can’t think clearly because it's clearly not the best situation for myself You keep on acting dumb, but I sure know what you've done; even though you sneak around so stealth. You're crazy but amaze me, and I was maybe too lazy to go out and find somebody new. But you separate your time between me and other guys. I think I'm going to find somebody too. Well you've got that body and that body's going to rob me. It seems you always steal on first caress. And my soul although you took it, I see where you went and put it. I'm going to take it back because you're a mess You always try to be everything I ever need every time I say that I don't want you here. You lay up on my side, play upon my pride, and I’m not taking you back this time, my dear.

This I Promise You (free) 02:27
What once was, to where we are now: Every time I look back to you, feelings swell to where they used to be because no matter what I say or do... This I promise you. When you need I'll be there. Time has passed and things have changed. Every time I look back into your eyes, I find the feelings renew. Know now that no matter what we might go through... This I promise you. When you need I'll be there. I’ll swear that I'm never going to let you down. Keep making promises. I swear that I'm never going to let you down. I keep making promises, promises!
