Lifehouse Album

All night staring at the ceiling
Counting for minutes I've been feeling this way
So far away and so alone
But you know it's alright, I came to my senses
Letting go of my defenses
There's no way I'm giving up this time
Yeah, you know I'm right here
I'm not losing you this time

And I'm all in, nothing left to hide
I'm falling harder than a landslide
I spend a week away from you last night
And now I'm calling, calling out your name
Even if I lose the game, I'm all in, I'm all in tonight
Yeah I'm all in, I'm all in for life

There's no taking back what we've got
Too strong, we've had each other's back for too long
There's no breaking up this time
And you know it's okay, I came to my senses
Letting go of my defenses
There's no way I'm giving up this time

And I'm all in, nothing left to hide
I'm falling harder than a landslide
I spend a week away from you last night
And now I'm calling, calling out your name
Even if I lose the game, I'm all in, I'm all in tonight
Yeah I'm all in, I'm all in for life

I want it, I want it, yeah I want it
I want it, I want it, I want it, yeah
I want it, I want it, yeah I want it

And I'm all in, calling out your name
Even if I lose the game
I'm all in, I'm all in for life

And I'm all in, nothing left to hide
I'm falling harder than a landslide
I spend a week away from you last night
And now I'm calling, calling out your name
Even if I lose the game, I'm all in
I'm all in tonight, yeah I'm all in, I'm all in for life
Yeah I'm all in, I'm all in for life

I see through your clothes
Your nerve damage shows
Trying not to feel
Anything that's real
You're losing control

Meltdown's looking for a new clown
Living in a world that's make believe
Used up burned out always got a hand out
Ain't nothing here for free
Now you're hanging on the edge of tomorrow
Let go let it be

New circus freak
With black eyes that speak
Life takes it's toll
You push and it pulls
You're losing control

Meltdown's looking for a new clown
Living in a world that's make believe
Used up burned out always got a hand out
Ain't nothing here for free
Now you're hanging on the edge of tomorrow
Let go let it be

I see thru your clothes
Your nerve damage shows
You're losing control

Meltdown's looking for a new clown
Living in a world that's make believe
Used up burned out always got a hand out
Ain't nothing here for free
Now you're hanging on the edge of tomorrow
Let go let it be

Hell bent looking for a god send
Kicking down the door waiting for a sign
Right side turning on the bright side
That might not be what you find
Wake up move on nothing left to prove
Got nightmares in your dreams

Loneliness facing up and down these hallways
Secondguessing every thought
Mystified, just spinning ’round in circles
Drowning in the silent screaming with nothing left to say

Everytime I reach for you, there’s no one there to hold on to
Nothing left for me to miss, I’m letting go, letting go of this
Lost my mind thinking it through, the light inside has left me too
Now I know what empty is, I’ve had enough, I’ve had enough of this.

I believe that love should be a reason
To give and get back in return (to give and get back in return)
I wanna breathe in a new beginning
With someone who will wrap her arms around what’s left of me

Everytime I reach for you, there’s no one there to hold onto
Nothing left for me to miss, I’m letting go, letting go of this
Lost my mind thinking it through, the light inside has left me too
Now I know what empty is, I’ve had enough, I’ve had enough of this.

Inside I’m barely holding on
There’s something that’s already gone
Inside of me a world is in this all alone

Everytime I reach for you, there’s no one there to hold on to
Nothing left for me to miss, I’m letting go of this
Lost my mind thinking it through, the light inside has left me to
Now I know what empty is, I’ve had enough, I’ve had enough of this.
Everytime I reach for you, there’s no one there to hold on to
Nothing left for me to miss, I’m letting go, letting go of this
Lost my mind thinking it through, the light inside has left me to
Now I know what empty is, I’ve had enough, I’ve had enough of this

You were always hard to hold
So letting go aint easy
Im hanging on but growing cold
While my mind is leaving

Talk, talk is cheap
Give me a word you can keep
Cause youre halfway gone and Im on way
And Im feeling, feelin feelin this way
Cause Im halfway in but dont take too long
Cause Im halfway gone, Im halfway gone
You got one foot out the door
And choking on the other
Always think theres something more
Its just around the corner

Talk, talk is cheap
Give me a word you can keep
Cause Im halfway gone and Im on way
And Im feeling, feelin feelin this way
Cause youre halfway in but dont take too long
Cause Im halfway gone, Im halfway gone

If you want me out, then Im on my way
And Im feelin, feelin feelin this way
Cause youre halfway in, but dont take too long
Cause Im halfway gone, Im halfway gone (wohoww wohoww)
Im halfway gone, Im halfway gone (wohoww wohoww)
Now Im halfway gone, Im halfway gone
Dont take too long, dont take too long
Cause Im on my way
If you take too long
Cause Im halfway gone and Im on way
And Im feeling, feelin Im feelin this way
Cause youre halfway in but dont take too long
Cause Im halfway gone, Im halfway gone

If you want me out, then Im on my way
And Im feelin , feelin feelin this way
Cause youre halfway in, but dont take too long
Cause Im halfway gone, Im halfway gone (wohoww wohoww)
Cause Im halfway gone, and Im halfway gone (wohoww wohoww)
Cause Im halfway gone, yeah Im halfway gone

I was only looking for a shortcut home
But it's complicated
So complicated
Somewhere in this city is a road I know
Where we could make it
But maybe there's no making it now

Too long we've been denying
Now we're both tired of trying
We hit a wall and we can't get over it
Nothing to relive
It's water under the bridge
You said it, I get it
I guess it is what it is

I was only trying to bury the pain
But I made you cry and I can't stop the crying
Was only trying to save me
But I lost you again
Now there's only lying
Wish I could say it's only me

Too long we've been denying
Now we're both tired of trying
We hit a wall and we can't get over it
Nothing to relive
It's water under the bridge
You said it, I get it
I guess it is what it is

Here it comes ready or not
We both found out it's not how we thought
That it would be, how it would be
If the time could turn us around
What once was lost may be found
For you and me, for you and me

Too long we've been denying
Now we're both tired of trying
We hit a wall and we can't get over it
Nothing to relive
It's water under the bridge
You said it, I get it
I guess it is what it is

I was only looking for a shortcut home
But it's complicated
So complicated

So far away from where you are
These miles have torn us worlds apart
And I miss you
Yeah, I miss you
So far away from where you are
Standing underneath the stars
And I wish you were here

I miss the years that were erased
I miss the way the sunshine would light up your face
I miss all the little things I never thought that they’d mean everything to me
Yeah, I miss you
And I wish you were here

I feel the beating of your heart
I see the shadows of your face
Just know that wherever you are
Yeah, I miss you
And I wish you were here

I miss the years that were erased
I miss the way the sunshine would light up your face
I miss all the little things
I never thought that they’d mean everything to me
Yeah, I miss you
And I wish you were here

So far away from where you are
These miles have torn us worlds apart
And I miss you
Yeah, I miss you
And I wish you were here

there was a time, was a place back when
you and i were living alone together
we held each other in the middle of the night
and swore we'd somehow make it better
we set our sights on the big city lights
no moss on these rolling stones
and here we are with everything we ever wanted
but now we're together alone

gotta break out of this place we're in
runnin' out of time and out of sin
we were living smoke and mirrors anyway
gonna drive all night 'til we disappear
chasing down the miles so far from here
as the smoke and mirrors start to fade away
we're still the same...

i remember thinking we could make it out somehow
if somehow we ever took a chance
we packed up what we had and threw it in the trunk
didn't give our life a second glance
now the days roll hard and the nights move fast
they say be careful what you wish
but having everything means nothing to me now
what we had is everything i miss

gotta break out of this place we're in
runnin' out of time and out of sin
we were living smoke and mirrors anyway
gonna drive all night 'til we disappear
chasing down the miles so far from here
as the smoke and mirrors start to fade away
you know we're still the same... still the same

gonna drive all night 'til we disappear
chasing down the miles so far from here
as the smoke and mirrors start to fade away
and we're all we've got so let's hold on tight
to the dreams that came before the fight
we were living smoke and mirrors anyway

Everytime I see your face
My heart takes off on a high speed chase
Now don't be scared, it's only love
Baby, that we're falling in

I can't wait to tomorrow
This feeling has swallowed me whole
And know that I've lost control
This heart that I've followed
Has left me so hollow
That was then, this is now, yeah you have changed everything

Everytime I see your face
My heart takes off on a high speed chase
Now don't be scared, it's only love
That we're falling in
I would never do you wrong
Or let you down or lead you on
Don't look down, it's only love
Baby, that we're falling in

I'm standing in your driveway
It's midnight and I'm sideways
To find out if you feel the same
Won't be easy, have my doubts too
But it's over, without you I'm just lost, incomplete
Yeah you feel like home, home to me

Everytime I see your face
My heart takes off on a high speed chase
Now don't be scared, it's only love
That we're falling in
I would never do you wrong
Or let you down or lead you on
Don't look down, it's only love
Baby, that we're falling in

All those nights I stayed away
Thinking of all the ways to make you mine
All of those smiles will never fade
Never run out of ways to blow my mind

Everytime I see your face
My heart takes off on a high speed chase
Now don't be scared, it's only love
That we're falling in
I would never do you wrong
Or let you down or lead you on
Don't look down, it's only love
Baby, that we're falling in
Don't be scared, it's only love
Baby, that we're falling in

I'm alone, wandering in your space
Waiting for a sign of life
Looking so out of place
Then you whisper to me, it doesn't matter what you say
I feel the weight against the wind
The demolition of me caving in

And I'm always swinging on this wrecking ball
While you're building up and breaking down my wall
You push and pull, you give and take
And through it all I gravitate to you

I'm a fool, a mechanical tool for you
You've got all the switches and levers to blow my cool
And when you know I'm broken
That's when you come shining through
You set me up to knock me down
And leave my shattered pieces on the ground

And I'm always swinging on this wrecking ball
While you're building up and breaking down my wall
(I'm not ready to break)
You push and pull, you give and take
And through it all I gravitate to you

You set me up to knock me down
And leave my shattered pieces on the ground

And I'm always swinging on this wrecking ball
While you're building up and breaking down my wall
(I'm not ready to break)
You push and pull, you give and take
And through it all I gravitate to you

you got what you wanted
the world on a string
found your madonna
and lost everything
we all had your back
and watched you run away
always here tomorrow and gone today
always here tomorrow and gone today

you're all talk and nothing to say
we don't want, don't want what you're giving away
know how to move and you know how to shake
we don't want, don't want what you're giving away

walking disaster soaking up space
just a matter of time before you show your second face
a maniacal master of getting your way
always here tomorrow and gone today

you're all talk and nothing to say
we don't want, don't want what you're giving away
know how to move and you know how to shake
we don't want, don't want what you're giving away

got style but you got no game
we don't want, don't want what you're giving away
always looking for somebody to play
we don't want don't want what you're giving away

you're all talk and nothing to say
we don't want, don't want what you're giving away
know how to move and you know how to shake
we don't want, don't want what you're giving away

got style but you got no game
we don't want, don't want what you're giving away
always looking for somebody to play
we don't want don't want what you're giving away

All I want now is to be with you
Cause you know I've been everywhere else
Looking back at what you got me through
You knew me better than I knew myself

When I feel lost and I can't find my way
When words are at a loss I can hear you say

I'll be by your side, when all hope has died
I will still be around oh and I, I'm still on your side
When everything's wrong, I will still be around
By your side

Fighting my way back to where you are
The only place I ever felt at home
Stumbling backwards through the dark
I know how it feels to be alone
And where we go is where I wanna be
And in the silence I hear you say to me

I'll be by your side, when all hope has died
I will still be around, oh and I, I'm still on your side
When everything's wrong, I will still be around

I can't wait another day to show my space between
Your heart and mine, and you're all that I need
You say I

I'll be by your side, when all hope has died
I will still be around, oh and I, I'm still on your side
When everything's wrong, I will still be around
By your side, by your side, by your side, by your side, by your side

Throw stones, breaking bones, then wondering why you run for cover
You fight the world from inside
Lay down, playing dead to the pages just another wasted day in your mind

You live to run away
But fear is the hardest act to follow
Let me let you in
Hold on another day
Face the truth it's hard to swallow
It's time to begin, there's only one life
In your skin

Wake up, take a breath, remember why you're even breathing
You're still alive
Give it, give it up, you're the only one believing in all of your lies

You live to run away
But fear is the hardest act to follow
Let me let you in
Hold on another day
Face the truth it's hard to swallow
It's time to begin, there's only one life
In your skin, in your skin

You live to run away
But fear is the hardest act to follow
Let me let you in
Hold on another day
Face the truth it's hard to swallow
It's time to begin, there's only one life
In your skin, in your skin

Gravity pulls and we fall from the clouds
We prove to each other
That we're both human now
The time that we spent
Trying to make sense of it all

All that I'm asking for
Is that you need nothing more
And nothing comes in between
Our love and its fragile scene
All that I'm asking for
You're all that I'm asking for

Now we walk together
Knowing where we've been
Knowing the stakes of being mistaken again
It's in the past tense
There is no making sense of it now

All that I'm asking for
Is that you need nothing more
And nothing comes in between
Our love and its fragile scene
All that I'm asking for
You're all that I'm asking for

In the still of your hands
Anything can happen now
With every beat of my heart
Love speaks in silence

In the still of your hands
Anything is possible
With every beat of my heart

The time that we spent
Trying to make sense
Of it all

All that I'm asking for
Is that you need nothing more
And nothing comes in between
Our love and its fragile scene
All that I'm asking for

Is that you need nothing more
And nothing comes in between
Our love and its fragile scene
All that I'm asking for
You're all that I'm asking for

It's in the past sense
There's no making sense, of it now

All these nights are catching up to me
I just can't put insomnia to sleep
I close my eyes but all that I can see
Is someone who I'm never gonna be

I hope that you can bring me back
I gotta make it right

And if I fall and crash and burn
at least we both know that I tried
And as I crawl, those lessons learned
Yeah they remind me I survived

Silence just keeps screaming back at me
The wounds I know are lost in memories
And I wish that I could take back what was done
You can only change the person you've become

I have to try and find a way to leave it all behind

And if I fall and crash and burn
at least we both know that I tried
And as I crawl, those lessons learned
Yeah they remind me I survived
And I've been hurt and I've been scarred
at least I know that I'm alive
and if I fall and crash and burn
at least we both know that I tried

All of the things I tried to say
All of the words just got in the way
I'm waiting here, I need your help
Don't leave me down here all by myself

And if I fall and crash and burn
at least we both know that I tried
And as I crawl, those lessons learned
Yeah they remind me I survived
And I've been hurt and I've been scarred
at least I know that I'm alive
and if I fall and crash and burn
at least we both know that I tried

Find me here, speak to me
I want to feel You, I need to hear You
You are the light that's leading me
To the place where I find peace again

You are the strength that keeps me walking
You are the hope that keeps me trusting
You are the light to my soul
You are my purpose, You're everything

How can I stand here with You and not be moved by You?
Would You tell me, how could it be any better than this?

You calm the storms, and You give me rest
You hold me in Your hands, You won't let me fall
You steal my heart, and You take my breath away
Would You take me in, take me deeper now

How can I stand here with You and not be moved by You?
Would You tell me, how could it be any better than this?
And how can I stand here with You and not be moved by You?
Would You tell me, how could it be any better than this?

'Cause You're all I want, You're all I need
You're everything, everything
You're all I want, You're all I need
You're everything, everything

You're all I want, You're all I need
You're everything, everything
You're all I want, You're all I need
You're everything, everything

And how can I stand here with You and not be moved by You?
Would You tell me, how could it be any better than this?
How can I stand here with You and not be moved by You?
Would You tell me, how could it be any better than this?

How can I stand here with You and not be moved by You?
Would You tell me, how could it be any better than this?
Would You tell me, how could it be any better than this?

If I showed my hand shaking like a leaf,
you might not understand, but I bet you'd believe
The spiders inside, crawling around
the cobwebs in my mind that I tried to drown out.

You said I look like a ghost, man I almost was.
You said I need to let go, quit chasing that buzz,
that picture in time, frozen like ice
Cycles keep repeating, beating me down to size.

Well maybe I'm blind, just throwing darts in the dark.
I didn't get what I want, I got what I need.
Man, it hurts like hell down here on my knees.
Is this where I end, or is this where we begin?

The night is my friend, I blend in with the best:
The vampires, the crooks, the felons and the rest.
Now we can pretend that we really care less,
and act like we love what we really detest.

Well maybe I'm blind, just throwing darts in the dark.
I didn't get what I want, I got what I need.
Man it hurts like hell down here on my knees.
Is this where I end, or is this where we begin?

Make this go away, I'm begging please--
there's little life left here for me to bleed.
Is this where I end, or is this where we begin?

I'm looking up but I'm feeling down,
Since cutting these corners, is cutting me down to size

Am I losing control or losing my mind?
I know for a fact I'm losing my last place to hide.

Well maybe I'm blind, just throwing darts in the dark.
I didn't get what I want, I got what I need.
Man it hurts like hell down here on my knees.
Is this where I end, or is this where we begin?

My pulse is racing, I can't catch my breath.
This near-life experience scared me to death.
Is this where I end, or is this where we begin?

Or is this where we begin?

One, two, three, four

There's so much more than time, in the life we live
With so much more to love, than we can give
You say a hard rain's gonna fall, but I'm not afraid

I'm floating in my mind, as the world gets colder
Frozen, like a star don't wake me when it's over
Breakdown, all around the world is off my shoulder
I'm falling with the tide don't wake me when it's over now

Silence is the only sound, that I want to hear
In the space where we are now, everything is clear
They say the trouble's on the way, but I'm not afraid

I'm floating in my mind, as the world gets colder
Frozen, like a star don't wake me when it's over
Breakdown, all around the world is off my shoulder
I'm falling with the tide don't wake me when it's over now

I'm floating in my mind, as the world gets colder
Frozen, like a star don't wake me when it's over
Running out of time, as the sun gets closer
Fading far behind, yesterday grows older
Breakdown, all around the world is off my shoulder
I'm falling with the tide don't wake me when it's over now
