Dinosaur Act lyrics

Born on a Cloud, stupid and proud
I'm gonna take you back now
Cursed by the past, Held under glass
I was too hard to shake down

And I'm coming back with my dinosaur act
Did you forget me baby after the fact
I'm telling you

I'm coming back with my dinosaur act
I still remember baby what we both lack
We both lack

Lost in the head, lost in your bed
I wouldn't call you lucky

Devil With The Green Eyes lyrics

I can understand you're living in a prison
I know you can only see me as a vision
I might fade away with the coming of a new dawn

And your heart is breaking.
What are you gonna do now
That you're tired of faking it?
Well, it's hard to take it
When you know what happens each time

The devil with the green eyes
Said you were never meant to be mine
'Cause I came up from a dark world

The Ugly Truth lyrics

You don't want to die
But the living gets you down
We want you to act like nothing's wrong
Even though you heard a sound
And then you're ripped right out of the ground
Like a fuckin' root
No you simply cannot hide
From the ugly truth

You fell you must be wise
'Cause you could find yourself
Among a sea of smiling faces
It's a way I've never felt
Yeah, it kinda flies right into my face

Time Capsule lyrics

Stop what you're doing to me
My love don't want to see
Then-We were young and strong
Now-Everything is wrong [so wrong]
Did you want me
Did you need me
Could you not say
You believed me
Could you not say
And our love is in a time capsule
Dream what you want me to be
Come and dig for me
Then-We were young and strong
Now-Everything is wrong [so wrong]
Didn't you want me

Someone To Pull The Trigger lyrics

Well I'm loaded and ready
Calmly holding steady
Looking for a sign to show me when
Well I'm waiting and willing
The clarity is chilling
But I'm not turning back
and neither can you

I need someone to pull the trigger
'Cause there's a hole in my heart getting bigger
And everything I'll ever be I've been
And I need someone to pull the trigger
So if you're what I think you'll be

Knowing People lyrics

Are you made like God
When you start to bleed
Do you really know
What it is to breathe
Without a mind to think
Or a hand in fate
You're an animal
Filled with love and hate

And you
And the way you move
And the things you say
Your desperate dreams
Are pathetic

I don't like knowing people
I don't like people knowing about me
I don't like knowing people

Life Without You lyrics

Every time you go away
I know there's nothing I can say
But I don't know how to stay alive
No matter what I keep inside
Or what I let escape from the place where you walked through
But I wouldn't want a life without you
No I wouldn't want a life without you

Everytime you go away
There are some rules I do obey
If you had to watch me scream and cry
You'd feel the need I'm living by

Ugly Truth Rock lyrics

You don’t want to die
But the living gets you down
We want you to act like nothing’s wrong
Even though you heard a sound
And then you’re ripped right out of the ground
Like a fucking root
Ah, you simply cannot hide
From the ugly truth
You feel you must be wise
Cause you could find yourself
Among a sea of smiling faces
It’s a way I’ve never felt

Do It Again lyrics

I'll do it again
If I have to love you from afar
You'll do it again
Before we get too far
And I'll hurt you again
Baby if you'll hurt me one more time

'Cause love that's bad
Is better than none
You know breaking up is half of the fun
And who would want a dream
That can't be real

I'll do it again
I will let you take me for a ride
You'll do it again
Start opening then hide

In Too Deep lyrics

I'm in too deep
Drowning in the fire
Burning in the lake
Dying from desire, dying for desire

I'm in too deep
Grasping like a liar
Yeah, and do you want me
'Cause I'm gonna fly, yeah, I'm gonna fly

I'm in too deep
And even when you think you already know what to do, baby
There comes a hard road rushing at you
And honey ain't life sweet
Mmm, too deep

I'm in too deep

Reaching Out lyrics

You've counted every star
That you could imagine
Broken when everyone took you for a fool
It gave you a reason
To find something strong enough to feel

You're reaching out (reaching out)
You're reaching out (reaching out)
You're reaching out

Beaten by a child
You can't even know when
Now you can never be free from what was done
You can't even hate them

What Do You Know? lyrics

Do you want to tell me something
Open up my world for me baby
With another stupid lie that gets you by
One of those stupid lies that gets you by
Do you wnat to show me something
Or are you just describing it to me
Just look me in the eye / When you say why
Oh, look me in the eye / When you say why
'Cause what do YOU know
That I would want to
Where do you go
That I could belong

Falling lyrics

The further you go
The farther you've gone
It doesn't mean you were made to hang on
And you're falling falling falling
But you can't let go

Whether you're cold, hot, bottled or not
This is the day for which you have fought
And you're calling calling calling
But you can't get home

And every day takes something away
Until there's nothing left to say

Evergreen lyrics

As soon as I found you baby you know
They took you away
You put your little hands together and
You started to pray
But all your prayers they brought no answer
Your faith was a lie

And there's no difference
Between the earth and the sky
There's no reason
We have to die

Whenever you talk that way you know
You're breaking my heart
How can we ever come together when
