"Gunfight" - second single from their album "Connect"

I'm feeling so afraid.
Cause everything that I do lately makes you angry.
I've never been so ashamed.
It really felt like you and me were getting better.

I hope that you still want me.
I hope it's not too late.

(Chorus)
Don't walk away.
And leave without a reason.
When there's too much to say that hasn't been said.
I know I was wrong and I'm sorry for making the same mistakes.
Don't walk away. (ay ay ay ay ay ay ay)

Can you really throw away all the times that we've recovered one another?
And I know I make it hard.
How long should I pay for being unappealing?

I know you want to want me.
I see it in your eyes....

Define your meaning of war
To me it's what we do when we're bored
I feel the heat comin off of the blacktop
And it makes me want it more
Because I'm hyped up, outta control
If it's a fight I'm ready to go
I wouldn't put my money on the other guy
If you know what I already know

It's been a long time coming
And the tables' turned around
Cause one of us is goin'
One of us is goin' down
I'm not runnin', it's a little different now
Cause one of us is goin'
One of us is goin' down!

Define your meaning of fun
To me it's when we're gettin' it done
I feel the heat comin' off of the blacktop
So get ready for another one...

I walk the line of the disappointed
I celebrate when I'm in pain
My heart and mind can be disjointed
And I built a bed in this hole I made

I recognize that I'm damaged
I sympathize that you are too
But I wanna breathe without feelin' so self-conscious
But it's hard when the welt's starin' at you

Another piece of the puzzle, it doesn't fit
You throw your arms up, you're so fucking sick of it
What are you working for? What are you searching for?
Love

You won't be thinkin' of causes
You're on your death bed and dyin'
You'll only be thinkin' of what you are paying for
What you are praying for, love

You join the...

I wanna wake up
I've been walking in my sleep to long
Wake up
So sick of dreaming

I wanna slow down
I wanna be part of what is happening around me
Without breathing
Without feeling
Without screaming
So I'm leaving

[Chorus]
I'm unconsiously unconsious
Why am I filled with hate?
I'd like to blame my parents
I'm sure you'd do the same
Swallow the hurt
Spit out the jerk that's to afraid

I turn the page
To a chapter that they thought was just a phase
But it consumed me

You're right I am a failure
And when my life turns to shit
It won't have anything to do with the fact that it's all you ever taught me how to do
So you...

Made the toast,
Burnt the eggs,
Never got the hang of them,
Just another other day.

Caught the bus,
Forgot the change,
Looks like I'll be late again,
Hopefully they won't complain.

My lifes so pitiful,
Give me one good reason why I shouldn't end it all,
If there's a reason then I haven't found it yet.

And I'll try every drug I find,
Except maybe heroin and cyanide,
But theres a reason I just can't afford it yet.
Oh, its just another overdose

Went to work,
Saw you there,
But you never seem to care,
For a single thing I say.

I set the clock and went to sleep,
This anxiety I keep,
Through another fucking day.

(Looks...

I waited for you yesterday
I waited and missed the last train
I waited to say that I'd fallen in love with your way
I waited for you yesterday
Eventually walked home in the rain
I waited to see if you felt the same for me

But you don't,
And you won't
Go against your asshole father
Going broke,
Quitting dope
For your folks
Why did I even bother?
Why did I?

I waited for minds to change
Pointing their fingers of blame
It's not my fault you're ashamed of how you feel

But you don't,
And you won't
Go against your asshole father
Going broke,
Quitting dope
For your folks
Why did I even bother?
Why did I?

Cause you don't
Just...

Tell me all your plans and I'll laugh back in your face
Preach me your religion if you're dumb enough to pray

I tried to make a change to get a better way
to make a little more money
I tried to get away to see if I could stay
and look what I became, honey

[Chorus]
What is it I'm after
Searching for disaster
Watching my whole life flash in front of my eyes
We've been given answers
Still we're walking cancers
Dressed up as a life

Get all your news from a corporate company
Trade in your opinon for a gallon of gasoline
Go!

I tried to get away to see if I could stay
And look what I became, honey

[Chorus]
What is it...

The window's cracked, I'm looking out
I see her and I'm filled with doubt
I don't know if this parking place
Is just another empty space
Words I've said aren't coming true
I don't know if it's me or you
This promise is too hard to keep
I have to speak

So what, I lied
But the truth would've been suicide
Monogamy is all she wants from me
But I see my life
And it's way too short
Don't blame me for not being subservient to others'
needs
I'm at the point where honesty just doesn't fucking
work for me

I did my best to try and be
A mirror of society
But we both know the mirror's cracked
And everybody's in the act
Faking...

Take me for a ride when I don't even know the set-up,
Get into a fight just to make the sex better,
You got a hold of me but there ain't nothing here that's holding you down.

I believed in this except it wasn't getting better,
You got me in the middle but I never found the center,
Even when you know what I know it's not stopping you now.

I can't always see what's in front of me.
No I can hardly breathe,
Suffocating me,
Bleeding it out,
All over the ground.

Tell me when it's over,
Wake me when I'm sober,
The scars [are] too hard to hide,
I should've known better,
If only I could be strong enough to see that...
