Begin Again 02:39
You claim I was never there for you When you never even gave yourself a chance You failed thanks to insecurities And placed the blame on me Don't stack your problems on my back I never said I was perfect Now here we go down that same road once again Wish I was something that I can't live up to Where I end right where I began (With no friends) You expect me to offer an apology But I can't find the need to say I'm sorry You forgave me fo the mistakes I have made When you're still living in the past We go through life walking on egg shells I don't want to hurt you You don't want to hurt me But somewhere in this equation There has to be room for understanding So much for being friends Begin again I guess this is the end Begin again

Army of Kids 02:20
We may be young But we're not naive We won't give in To your adult supremacy Don't you think We'll do what you say When we've seen The mistakes you've made We're young But we're not dumb We're smarter Than you think Stop and think An army of kids Not here to change your mind But if you look You may find An army of kids We've found a better way You can have your maturity

Faded Grey 02:21
How did that feeling fade It was only yesterday That I stood by your side Now I'm left asking why How did that feeling die I think of you and I burn inside All those feelings that we shared This just isn't fair Did you ever care Were you ever there Now that you're gone I'm forced to move on But without you I'm not really sure what to do All those lies that we spoke Every promise that we broke I've got nowhere to turn I guess I've got a lot to learn Nothing lasts forever That was yesterday Your memory is faded grey That was yesterday This pain won't remain

In Silence 02:20
Mouth clamped tight My tongue burns with a thousand words You could be my everything But I won't even make a peep In my mind We've lived that dream a hundred times It was so wonderful But you don't even know my name Is this the right place Could this be the right time Are we just cheating ourselves By holding back without everything If I open up and let you peer inside I'm afraid you won't like what you find All these emotions swell like a lake Behind a dam built for rejection's sake In silence my thoughts are crime In silence I'm left behind

A child beaten to death Because he didn't fit into their mold Of what's right and wrong Ostracized Because he chose to live free of lies Ignorance took his life Left out in the cold to die And we wonder why People hide themselves away From a world that doesn't understand This world doesn't understand Poisoned minds Judged him when he stepped out from behind The safety of the closet door Evil eyes Lynched him a thousand times before he died Fear wrapped the noose around his neck When will we see That true love holds validity No matter who's involved The hatred we project Toward those who may be different Must meet an end What can we say for ourselves When we stand by with idle minds And let hatred run it's course
6.
Abandoned you walked out on them Another family left in ruin Because dear old dad Thought only of himself Your selfishness robbed them of their youth Left to wonder What their father's like While mother tries her best to provide Left to wonder What life would be like If things had turned out right Now did you really think They'd accept you back With open arms Your kids don't know you You're a stranger As far as their concerned Dismantled lives left in pieces Look at the mess you've created A trail of heartache lies in your wake Your life has been one big mistake So many years have passed Since we saw you last Now you're all alone you want us back But life goes on Just like they say Even for a makeshift family
