Walking with the dead Sleeping in your bed Losing my trust and sanity The door ain't locked, don't need no key I will not accept defeat I don't need your love or your money That's right, yeah, that's right It's all so pointless Goodbye and good night It's all so pointless Dreaming of another land Leaving behind my ruined plans Searching for a shred of humanity Looked high and low but still cannot see That's right, yeah, that's right It's all so pointless Goodbye and good night It's all so pointless
2.
Nobody loves me and nobody loves you So we should take drugs and freak out if you want to We will never be saved, we will turn into slaves Of the people we used to devote all our time to Fall into love and then you fall out Put on a Dables CD and listen to me pout Maybe something I say will make you shed a tear Or if you see my face, you will be filled with fear It's just anxiety by numbers Go to the store and lose your mind Try to moonwalk but just stumble

Waste 03:43
Just another day that I'm gonna waste I don't know why but your face makes me cry Turn the TV off, let's sit and talk If you want we can get high to make the time pass by We've got time to kill so say what you will If there's anything you need just let me know If you wanna get outta here well then just go Cause it's a level playing field Where everything seems so damn real But don't you know that nothing should ever be a big deal Cause I'm a waste of time, of space My mother told me that when I die I'm gonna burn in hell burn in hell
4.
Hanging out all by myself I don't need nobody else Sittin' here, feeling the fear Loving every second of my wasted life ah yeah Nothing's going on and nothing will Got so much time that I gotta kill I can't see where I'm going still Climb back up and roll down the hill
5.
Got nothing to do so I'll just sit around here with you I'd rather be some place else but I don't know where to go Rather be lost, without a cause As long as what I'm doing does not really matter at all I need you to believe me when I say I hate everyone and everything I want you to see, to believe That I can't be you and you can't be me So we need to leave this scene and burn it And never speak of this to anyone Breath in the lies and breath out an excuse To leave this behind and never, ever come back Turn the TV on and watch some TV But it don't speak, speak to me It just sounds like I'm someone else Drink some water cause your body needs that shit And don't ever complain a single bit, ever I need you to see, to believe that I must grow up and I must move on The grass is greener on the other side of the world, across the desert The grass is greener anywhere at all and I just feel I need you to be there for me When I close my eyes for the last time
6.
Don't fret for me now Don't be afraid or confused I'm in a strange place now baby But that's old news Don't worry I'm in heaven now Hanging out on streets paved with gold Kissed by an angel every night Living in the greatest story ever told Don't worry I'm in heaven now And I don't ever wanna leave Don't ever wanna go back to hell Don't worry I'm in heaven now And I think I'll stay here for a while But only if you're here with me And now the songs of pain are dead "Negative Superman" left my head Every day is a new day now Found my place in the clouds somehow Don't worry I'm in heaven now Hanging out on streets paved with gold Kissed by an angel every night Living in the greatest story ever told Don't worry I'm in heaven now And I don't ever wanna leave Don't ever wanna go back to hell Don't worry I'm in heaven now And I think I'll stay here for a while But only if you're here with me

All I want for Christmas is you You and only you We could fall in love again, yes we could If you want to The thought of you by my side is the only gift I desire I need you tonight I know you want me in your life So why deny ourselves something so nice? All I want for Christmas is you by my side I don't know what to do about you It's hard to make you see I just know that on Christmas day I need you to say I love you and I miss you too And I think we could be together I need you tonight I know you want me in your life So why deny ourselves something so nice? All I want for Christmas is you by my side

I'm So Sorry 04:37
You woke me up from a dream to break my heart I guess I knew it would end this way right from the start I'm so sorry that I can't be who you want me to be I'm so sorry I'm losing sleep worrying about things out of my reach But I'm alright, yeah, I'm really ok in a weird sort of way I wanted to be a part of your life but that wasn't my fate I'm so sorry I wanted us to be more...but I'm just me

Brought inside from the cold So you can lay down your load Let the sun rise on your mind And pretend you're having a good time There's a spider on the wall Better get him before he runs down the hall Never see him again Until he poisons you in the end Am I to blame for my life? I think I am, and I think you might Understand that I might make More of the same mistakes again We are falling apart I am breaking my own heart
11.
One time when I was just a little boy Dreams the size the moon I'd stay awake late at night And wonder when I'd meet you Don't be afraid to make a mistake Cause how else will you learn anything? You will make it home soon I know we can achieve our dreams If you put your heart in everything We probably won't make any money But that's ok with me Cause I got an angel living with me When I close my eyes she never leaves You will make it home soon Just let your heart guide you You will make it home soon Believe in love so true

Piano 01:44
She wanted to play the piano but her hands couldn't reach the keys When her hands could finally reach the keys her feet couldn't reach the floor When her hands could finally reach the keys And her feet could finally reach the floor She didn't want to play that old piano anymore
14.
When I am afraid or if I am alone I just start to sing a song Cause no matter where I go I got music in my soul And I know things will be ok And when you're near I have no fear And I hope that you feel the same
