About A Boy

Don’t stare and look at me with those eyes
The creature that’s in me will only destroy.
Not your hero, not here to save.
Bury me deep, sleep upon my grave.

I am a liar, forgetting everything you’re not
You’re mocking me, but you’re all I got.
Holding on to my hand, feeding off this bone
When I cry, you leave me alone.

I hate it when she calls me a child,
There’s a difference between me and a man.
I like it when horses run wild,
I hate it when they don’t understand.

There’s a thunder coming down tonight,
But I can see no rain.
I know they want what they don’t need,
But who am I to complain?

Riding the wave, not wary of the tide.
The boy that’s in me will only destroy.
Not your savior, still you put me on a cross,
Don’t mock me like you always do, love
You know I’m all that you got.

Fool's Song

Fools justifying paradise
Like the things she never said
The things she would never feel
Well, it’s all in my head.

Moving on, home is far
Playing with my eyes open wide.
Losing sleep, Counting sheep
The rest is just surprise.

Take what is yours and I will make it mine
You let go of it all, just give me your time.
I’ll be the shade, one that helps u hide.

Who do you wanna be?

I’m a fool…
And I want to be this way.

Mocking Bird

Indifference, what you see is what you get
Before you end up in regret.
I am at one, though I often lie
I’ll take a chance, see me try.

Mock me like you always do
Please save me from myself.
For all you know, in the end
I cannot be somebody else.

My world spins another circle
And I watch the rising sun.
I think off all the things I’ve left behind
When I tasted sorrow on my tongue.

Mock me like you did before
Please save me from this pain.
Leave me be in my own world
I want to be free again.

Only if I knew it would end like this
I would never start.
No one told me I’d become this
And that life would be so hard.

Mock me like you always do
You cannot be somebody else.
For all you know, in the end
You cannot laugh at yourself.

Everything & Nothing

Take me far away from here...i want to hide...feeling more and more like a puppet everyday...feeling like I'm losing control over myself...so just take me away...get me outta here...away from my followers...if Ive got any,that is...Im breaking down and at the same time getting to know so many things at the same time...but sometimes, the last thing u wanna know is if u knew too much...and i dont wanna be that guy...

i hate the things he said...i love the things she told me...i hate him for taking a part of me away...i love her for making me see i can do without it...maybe for once i should get it nailed through my skull that i am fine the way i am...but no, someone has to come along and fuck it up as soon as that happens once and for all...

i feel empty...but not when she is in my head and on my mind...she walks there all day cuz she has no place to sit...but that doesnt mean she shouldn't...dazed and confused...blame it on existentialism...come to think of it,me and waqar arent so different..we would probably like each other more if we weren't...

and why should you react so strongly...cant i be sad...i dont mind the emptiness...i too wish i could fly away....i got songs in my head that i wish i could sing...but no aazar,why be something ure not...why the fuck cant i try...i know i cry and beg and borrow and steal sometimes...but why the fuck cant i?Dont u?Let me blame me...i dont wanna wake up in the morning look at the mirror and go...''whose this guy?''...cuz that might just happen one day soon...

let me get lost...and find myself...when i want to...u dont know who u are...neither do i...so let me ponder awhile and watch how this works...memories make me and they break me too...i am stronger than i used to be even though i waste more time than anyone i know...but all for a good cause,love...all for a good cause.

Overdrive

Deep in the labyrinth of full grown wires
Down in the circle of rings
I found myself and a future uninspired
And all that I could have been.

Futures turning overnight
Mirror into something else.
Down these roads that shine no light
They can think on their own.

Velvet black the way she slides
Beneath the darkest waste.
I’m ready for death, whatever it means
But I needn’t make haste.

Can anybody see this?
Regardless of what they say
I’ve waited all this time
I waited my life away.

Now my hands are open wide
I’m shining bright and blue
These words that are in my head
Now I give to you.

The tomorrows burning bright
Like the fires of yesterday
It’s easily forgotten
Doubled up inside up, up and away.

Give me a reason, give me a voice
Choices are too many and hard for me to decide.
So pretty the lights of the nights
But I’m the one with silhouettes.

The darkness like a wandering star
Shallow as a hole with no sounds within.
Look at me with those eyesFor now my shadow’s wearing thin.

Oasis

I don’t mind the distance
Just every other day.
The shadows they keep drifting,
Time gets lost in space.

Looking outside my window
This world I don’t understand.
I hear words that don’t mean nothing,
A boy grows from the seed of a man.

I don’t long for a city life
I like silhouettes that drown the light.
Never to be the same again
I wish I had a mask for you in vain.

All for nothing, nothing at all
Can this place break my fall?
This winding road leads nowhere
I got nobody on my side, but I never stood so tall.

Wires

He stood in the room naked
Some words that he said.
I can’t escape the wires
I’ve been living in my head.

I looked around the place,
The walls were almost bare.
Some blood and upturned bibles on the floor,
And there were razors everywhere.

‘You know child’, he said to me
‘Sometimes I wake up alone’.
‘Tell me have I carved enough?’
‘Sir, you are a bone’.

I choose the songs that I sing with care
I can’t see the words but there are lines everywhere.
I’m going crazy, hanging on a prayer
But the water’s drying up in my wishing well.

I had a dream last night
Where they said the world would end.
I took that as a blessing
Something ‘heaven sent’.

For I am bound to fall
In this world, on my own.
I needn’t carry you on my shoulder
I’ll leave you alone.

Then he turned to the mirror
And he walked right through
I saw him going deeper in that tide
Leaving behind a sad sad tune.

Then I stood in the room naked
Wires going through my head.
I put my eyes on the ceiling,
There’s no place lonelier than this bed.

No one needn’t visit me,
No one should know my name.
You can label me as the crazy one
I’ll treat you just the same.

The chemicals between us, they call me now
There’s a truth inside I’d never understand.
Is there a frequency, a way to reach you somehow?
This boy shall never become a man.

Awake

Wake up now make up your mind
It’s been too long and everybody knows
Searching for you down these deep blue skies
It’s not my story and it never was.

Let go of it all for everything’s the same
Like breadcrumbs you’ve left scattered behind.
Here comes the sun but I wish it’d rain
Just like it always is, in my mind.

Falling down your sweet tune of sorrow
Lives are wasted but words are free
It’s yesterday still, but I dream of tomorrow
This is what I am and this is what I’ll always be.

Wake up now make up your mind,
When you’re close to me you’re so hard to recognize.
Still I tell you that nobody knows
It’s not my story, it never was.

You beg for a change in a life of denial
Close my eyes when I can finally see
Here’s my story forever under trial
I’m sorry I can’t be what you want me to be.

Beautiful Ugly Things

Well here we are, everything is the same.
I don’t even remember the sound of my own name.
I can try but I’ll never be the same
I’m not like you, I’m stuck on rewind.

Shadows are falling, they’re shifting everyday
Like you in my eyes with the distance in my head.
You’re almost there, but never too late.
I’m not like you, I’m stuck on rewind.

Comfortable, I need you to hold this tight
Don’t let this one fall like my sweet decline
Down every road you’ve been on with a cracked rear-view mirror
I’m not like you, I’m stuck on rewind.

Every time I look the people are so strange
Laugh and cry at the same time, time and time again.
Yes I have many questions with answers in vain
I’m not like you, I’m stuck on rewind.

Every night is the same and this is everyday
Faded dreams and diamonds in the fire
But shining still like the things we do
This is for us, ones stuck on rewind.

Carousel

Dead eyes see no future
Cold hands feel no pain.
You tried to call me a nobody
Well that’s jus one of my names.

You needn’t find me
When you chase me through the dark.
Please don’t remind me
Of those eyes and a broken heart.

I know you can’t be mine
But you’re everything I want.
I’m after you this time
You’re everything I’m not.

Round and round in circles we go,
Like everyone and everything is free.
How can I be the same?
With something locked deep inside of me…

Tonight

You on a winding road with your arms open wide
You hiding in the hours before sunrise
You in the dark coming down the line
Don’t you know I need you? I need you tonight.

You with scars and head full of hurt
You’re undone tonight; you’re all used up.
Cry for the summer, shine like the rain,
Like drops in my hand, come fill me up again…

When I hold you tight, you slide through my hands
There’s a boy inside this shell of a man.
And I can see you shimmer across the land
And I feel you, I feel you tonight.

I know we’re alone tonight with this bitter cup
Its time we say we’ve had enough.
I can watch you forever as you take my hand
I never stare, for once I understand…

You on the outside, breaking into a run
You with the shaking hands don’t fly away into the sun.
You’re tired baby, but you’ve only just begun
And how I miss you, I miss you tonight.
