I Could Never Stop

I was fourteen
and I didn't see
what would happen
and become of me.
Stuck in a rut
and I didn't know
my life was high, but,
income was low.
And now I've spent over half my life
doing what I wanted, while rotting inside
Because I was going so fast that I could never stop
And I was just a young boy, but I could never stop
I want it to be over, but I could never stop
I'm ruining my life, but I could never stop
And I don't think I will ever get away
It's all I really know, And I'm never, ever gonna stop.

Good afternoon,
Welcome to our football match
between 22 overpaid players
with bad haircuts
Coming up next on MTV,
We've got some made up form of reality
I don't know what a Kardashian is
and I really don't care.
So I change over to the news
But it's a media biased pick and choose
TV, I'm turning you off,
I'm walking away.
But you're always waiting (stand by)
you're always waiting (stand by)
You're always waiting, to be turned on again
And I see you waiting (red light)
I see you waiting (red light)
I see you waiting, to be turned on again.

Mince

Well I'm having a bad day
everything can go away.
It's nothing personal,
I've just had enough.
And I've been like this everyday
a battle with my brain,
I'm punching my own head
just to make it stop.
And you ask if I'm okay,
and can you help in any way,
but I can't find the start
to find the end of this,
and my head has turned to mince!
I sometimes wish I could get out of this
I sometimes wish my brain would go away
I sometimes wish I could get out of this
But now my head has turned to mince.
Who's going out tonight?
I think it'll be alright.
Since when did I become
self confident?
And now the sun is coming up
once again I'm feeling rough.
I'm lying in my bed in another mess
and my head has turned to mince!
Who's going out tonight?
I think it'll be alright.
Since when did I become
self confident?
And the sun is coming up
once again I'm feeling rough
When will i ever learn
That I'm a fucking mess?
And my head has turned to mince!
Now my head has turned to mince
I sometimes wish I could get out.

Misled

Misled, a feeling made of bullets
guns reloaded, shot me in the heart
She took me to a place I could not control
Left alone, I was in the dark
Misled, a feeling on a knife edge
no answer to a false sense of hope
sometimes, I wear my heart on my sleeve
and I question every move.
So I, I'm coming down
It burns inside my head
And I just wanna know
Why you left me for dead, misled.
Misled, you left her for someone else
do you realise how that makes her feel?
Misled, you told me I was secure
Left betrayed, rejected ignored.
Misled, I don't know what to do now
I still wonder if you'll ever come back (come back)
Misled, I know we never made it,
But why are you still in my head?

Time Was Up

The year was 2004
I was so young, I was so bored
The only way out, was with my bass
and it was great
We gigged and we jammed everywhere we could
we weren't well known, we weren't that good
but none of that matters, because we had fun
it's what we done
This became a part of my life
It taught me what was wrong and right
but now the candles out, and all I do is shout..
We had a time, but our time was up,
a really good time, but our time was up
We had a time, but our time was up,
and when the fun was gone, it's time to stop.
As the years would roll on and on,
I had this band still going strong
We tightened up, we toured and we gigged
it all was great
What comes with the good, comes real life
Nothing would work, it didn't feel right,
eventually it added up, the time was up.
This became a part of my life,
I now know what is wrong and right,
because now the candles out
and all i do is shout.

Separation

It's real scary
of what can happen in a week.
You're living your life as normal
and the cracks will start to creek.
And I'm left alone.
And I'm defending for myself.
I've been liberated, while intoxicated
as I'm struggling through my hell.
So here I am, and I've moved out of my home
I'm away from you forever and it's really hit a low,
but I stand up tall, and dust myself down
This is who I am now, I hope you never come around.
If you tear away the anger,
and tear away the fight
we were just two seperate people
but living side by side
But everybody moves on
through right and through wrong
everybody moves on with it all
A month has passed,
and I feel like I'm born again
I'm walking with a smile and I'm focused on life again
With no boundaries
And nobody telling me what to do
That message that we left was the best for me and you.
So here I am
Still alive
With new opportunities coming at me
Parenthood
I'm coming up
And it feels like I'm going on,
it feels like I'm running on my luck
Well I'm feeling great
until I have myself a beer
they multiply by 20 and I'm living in a fear
and I've blacked out
and woke up next to guilt regret
I guess this is the way you say that I'm dealing with it.
