Ball and Chain
03:07
|
|||
This is my second life, it's such a waste of time
Addiction in my mind will leave me stuck inside
I've used up all my time which makes it hard to find
The only thing that keeps me sane
I can't break away from this ball and chain
It might take a shotgun to kill the pain
The air I breathe is fake, my enemies are fake
But every step I take seems real
My vision fades to red, I'm taking my last breath
Another chance to fight again
I can't break away from this ball and chain
It might take a shotgun to kill the pain
My obsession has disconnected me
And now I'm feeling resistance killing me
I can't break away from this ball and chain
It might take a shotgun to kill the pain
I can't break away from this ball and chain

verse:
i try to do the best I can.
still everything just turns out wrong.
i cant do this til the end.
i wont do this, i cant do this.

when it all comes down, and youre drownin in yourself,
think of how it could've been if you left me alone
cuz I cant find a way to be myself
while all the time you suffocate me
verse:
all the things that I want.
never things that I need.
i can't do this til the end.
i won't do this, i can't do this

you think that all the lies you tell are gonna save you
some people never learn
trying so hard for personal gain will only fail you

Empty Bottle
03:31
|
|||
verse:
The day grows long the hour's cold
you're taken away, but not that old
can't understand the reason why
we were forced to say goodbye
Goodbye
chorus:
Now I can't believe it, yet I could foresee it
an empty bottle and a wasted life
now that I've seen it, I still can't believe it
the pain it stabs me like a rusted knife
verse:
I often sit alone a night
and question myself how to do this right
I feel you watching down on me
give me a sign to make me see
bridge:
I can't believe that I would be the one to ask
how could you leave in such a careless way
all of the things I never got to say
will die along with me eventually one day
...and waste away
Wasted life and an empty bottle
wasted life and an empty bottle

Time and Money
03:29
|
|||
verse:
Life always seems to have its ways
a balancing act for better or worse
when my time arrives I'm sure I'll know
but until that day comes I'll just have to play
stick it out, play this game of life
chorus:
I spend my time
like I spend my money
I don't need much
cuz I don't do much
cuz I don't have much of either
verse:
I jumped straight in, it took me by surprise
it hit me real hard, then knocked me down
never thought I could be someone I hated
my vision's faded, this I've created
oh my God, this is not my life
bridge:
Most of life's best times come in disguise
waiting takes forever I'll just leave all that behind

Until I'm Done
03:29
|
|||
verse:
rollin down the road again, to a place that Ive never been. who'd have thought that this would happen wearing faded jeans and cheap sunglasses
still a hundred miles away, can't remember what i did today, adrenaline is running through my veins as i think of this over and over again
pre chorus:
until im done, until im done
chorus:
hittin it hard, takin it fast, tryin to make this moment last. now im back for more, going down again. it feels so good its too much fun, and im not gonna stop until i'm done
verse:
now you're wishing you were here with me, and the videos youre sending me, make it hard to concentrate, it's time to take another shot of liquid cocaine. the party's gettin ready to start, you sit at home with a broken heart, this alcohol is running through my veins as I think of you over and over again

No Complaints
04:14
|
|||
verse:
I've been walking down this desert road
for what seems to be a lifetime
the Autumn sun just fell behind a silhouette of mountains
and all I'm left with now is a cold dark night to find my way back home
I feel the odds against me but I still maintain control
Even though I'm lost I still know where I'm going
chorus:
No you'll never ever hear me complain
its not the kind of man that I am
people tend to drive me insane
no you'll never ever hear me complain
verse:
I wake up early every day
and it's a beautiful day today
until I step outside and begin to feel the heat rise up off the pavement
the wind is blowing hot and dry and I'm down to my last drop of water
the sun is blazing down upon my skin as it begins to burn
Even though the summer's hot in Arizona
bridge:
The only time that I felt like I was half a man
it didn't take me long to realize the damage I could do
and now I've got to make the best of the time that I'm given
chorus:
you'll never ever hear me complain
its not the kind of man that I am
people tend to drive me insane
no you'll never ever hear me complain
Its not the kind of man that I am
Do my best to keep from going insane
no you'll never ever hear me complain
