With bloodshot eyes you see right through me So paranoid, I trapped you in my lies Remember when you laid in my arms and pleaded For just another chance now it's my fault It's my fault, I'm pleading Bury me before my heart stops beating Close your eyes and tell me why this is breaking My whole heart is torn into pieces Just because you stopped believing We're out of time, there's no excuses I take the blame. It won't just fade away Until my last breath and I am lying with you I will wear this burden in my heart, I'll keep you Chorus You spread your lies. My back's against the wall Screaming out you've got me where you want me Chorus

You've got your fake smiles and a million dollar tan Six cars and a head full of nothing Black shades, needle in your arm Daddy's Porsche and a diamond you can choke on Hanging out with your head in the clouds Fake friends and a life in the Hills Refill with a pocket full of pills Cause that's so Hollywood, so Hollywood Everybody wants to be a star. Maybe you can fake it Get in the spot light (Whoa), green is the limelight (Whoa) Your eyes are on the prize, cuz that's so Hollywood. Not so Hollywood You've got your fast girls, money on your mind Cheap thrills and a breakfast full of white lines You stay high just to pass the time ‘Cuz that's so Hollywood, so Hollywood You're screaming out but we really don't care You've got the look but it’s nothing that I wear There's no point when they stop and stare ‘Cuz that's so Hollywood, so Hollywood Everybody wants to live so large. Maybe you can fake it Get in the spot light (Whoa), green is the limelight (Whoa) Your eyes are on the prize, cuz that's so Hollywood. Not so Hollywood Get in the spot light (Whoa), green is the limelight (Whoa) Too late to make it, too high to care ‘Cuz that's so Hollywood. Not so Hollywood We're never gonna be like you. We're never gonna be misused We're not so Hollywood, so Hollywood We're never gonna be like you. We're never gonna wear your shoes We're never gonna be like you We're not so Hollywood, so Hollywood

We all make mistakes, we all have regrets..... Her heart was shining in the night Like diamonds strewn across the sky I could not help to catch her light as she walked by 12 steps and seven little lies 2 days of waiting for her voice That's all it took to burn a hole inside my life One step away from leaving me in silence One step away from walking out the door I see you in my dreams, I pray that I can change Our lives are breaking from this world we create We wore our hearts like our last breath Inhaled the air just as we met So close to being open, fragile and so scared You taught me how to live again Cleaned up the wreckage and began To walk the road of broken hearts that never ends Chorus We all make mistakes, we all have regrets... Without you I can't be strong Without you I can't go on And it's killing me, and I just cannot breathe Now that I know I was wrong (you know I was wrong) Without you my emotions are dead Without you I just can't pretend And it's killing me, I live in make believe Now that I know I was wrong, yeah Stop my bleeding, voices feeding me into the fires I could never see Chorus

The color of her eyes were emerald green Just like the skies the night she packed up all her things and walked away I'm screaming I'm sorry for the things I said, you stole my heart and then you left me Lying here with nothing but regrets, I'm screaming Calling out your name And praying for the chance to break you from the pain That eats you up inside She called me just to say that every night that you're away Is just another way to get me out your head, I'm screaming I'm sorry for the things I said, you stole my heat and then you left me Lying here with nothing but regrets, I'm pleading That you will hear my voice and turn around There’s nothing left but the ashes of a broken heart Chorus I'm reaching for the stars as I'm lying here waiting for The chance to be your lover again, I can't take anymore Our lives are broken stitches that tear us apart at the seams I can't go on without you Chorus

Bury me in the sand, stick your needles within Taste the blood from my arm, watch the chemicals spin My whole life is a dream, faded pictures and memories Scattered out on the floor, I can't breathe Give me some hope, stand in the light How do I see? How do I believe, when the world stops spinning on it's axis? How do I feel? I don't know what is real when the world is made up of such sadness Give me some hope, stand in the light Tell me I'll see you tomorrow. Tell me I'll see ya! When you're broken inside and you can't find your pride Count the scars on your arms, wipe the tears that you're crying Your whole life is a scene, making friends that are enemies Faking that you're ok, you can't breathe Give me some hope, stand in the light Chorus Keep on breathing, just scream Don’t give up on me now So give me some hope, stand in the light Chorus

Lifesaver 02:30
I placed my heart into your hands So you would understand that what we've got is not over And every time that we're apart I know that what we had is worth the fight to make you... Save me from the pain I'm chasing, maybe we can start replacing All these tears with a chance to start things through I swear I'm better without you She said she'd need some time to think And hope that I'd understand that what we have is missing With every ounce of strength I have I'm counting down every hour, waiting to hear your voice say... Chorus How many times do I need to scream I don't want you in my life” You closed your eyes, you ripped out my heart You cut yourself off from everyone that you loved You closed your eyes (do you know there's still time?) Chorus

Run Away 03:25
We packed up our bags and we headed out west Chasing our dreams with each mile The feel of the sun on our face as we drive, with no regrets The wind in our hair and the smile on your face Tells us that we are alive With nothing to lose but this pocket of change, I drive with you Come run away, come run away with me With stars in our eyes and a hand full of dreams Run away We count down the hours as we cut through the hills Turn up the radio loud We sing and we scream at the top of our lungs Like no one hears With palm trees surrounding sand beaches in view We feel the cold breeze from the sea The sound of the ocean sings out it's sweet song in harmony Chorus Let's drive forever, chasing the sun till we die Let's drive forever, chasing the stars though the night Chorus
8.
My soul's alive The summer sun breaks through the sky The ocean air picks up and I can't help to think that I am Trapped here in this paradise called Hell I close my eyes and take a bow I feel the water rushing down And I am sinking in this ocean that will never know my name Lights out We're swinging like we've lost control Shot down We're hanging on until we know Our dreams of summer will be burning in the air tonight The memories of you remain Like ghosts at sea without a grave And I can't help to feel that Everyone I've loved has sailed away I tread the water, taste the salt I hear your voice as I look down And I am drowning as the angels and the demons run away They run away Don’t run from me Don’t run away Chorus I'm sinking in this ocean And I'm waiting for your mercy You can't help me, you can't help me It's all over, I'm not worthy Chorus Lights out for summer

Lying awake it's 7:30 and it's hard to breath The air is cold, my senses numb my heart is telling me To grab the keys to start the car and drive all night to you I can't believe it came to this, just tell me what to do Hearts are beating, hearts are beating out of time Lips are bleeding, lips are bleeding red tonight Falling to my knees, don't tell me that it's over Don't tell me that it's over to me I hit the lights and wipe my eyes to find her things are gone My fingers linked, I pray for strength but no one's listening I seize the knife, I hear your voice scream “are you happy now”?” You've got your wish, you make me sick Now drive the blade in deep Chorus With hearts on fire and target set We taste the embers of your regret Chorus Hearts are beating, hearts are beating out of time Lips are bleeding, lips are bleeding red tonight
