I’ll never understand The satisfaction you get from another’s suffering You feed off insecurities An open wound that’s left to bleed alone As you sit and wonder How to self-inflict a life much better, but now There is no one to save you So were done Backing down from you There is nowhere left for you to run It’s time It’s time to face the truth So eat you words and swallow your pride Cause I know we’ll make Know we’ll make it tonight Yeah I know we’ll make it tonight Tonight Tonight Tonight With our backs against the wall We’ re not ready to take the fall With our backs against the wall We’ re not ready to take the fall We came too far from where we started We came too far from where we started Oh whoa oh Oh whoa oh Oh whoa oh Oh whoa oh Oh whoa ohhhh So were done Backing down from you There is nowhere left for you to run It’s time It’s time to face the truth So eat you words and swallow your pride Cause I know we’ll make Know we’ll make it tonight Yeah I know we’ll make it tonight Tonight Tonight Tonight So sit back and enjoy the ride And have fun looking in from the outside Yeah we’ll make it Yeah we’ll make it I know we’ll make it So leave your thoughts behind cause were making our own path this time You’re a zero A hometown zero You’ll always be stuck inside

Wait for the chance to make it alright It’s time to set things straight I’ve been waiting for the chance to sell you out in this place no, I’m not the one for love, I’ve simply had enough So sit back baby and let me explain Hey girl I’m sorry I’m not a monster But if you knew me you wouldn’t bother So cry on, cry on, cry on for me Cry on, cry on, cry on for me I can see that you're falling apart Did you really think we had this going from the start? Cause we all know it's killing you (killing you) And I’ve apologized about a million times but I know, I know that it means nothing, nothing to you. So listen up I'm sorry but this has to end Listen up I’m sorry but this has to end Hey girl I'm sorry I'm not a monster But if you knew me you wouldn’t bother So cry on, cry on, cry on for me Cry on, cry on, cry on for me Listen up I’m sorry but this has to end Listen up I’m sorry but this has to end Listen up I’m sorry but this has to end Listen up, I’m sorry Hey girl I’m sorry I’m not a monster But if you knew me you wouldn’t bother So cry on, cry on, cry on for me Cry on, cry on, cry on for me

Last night I met the girl of my dreams Yeah I know it's crazy but it seems I looked at her as she stood next to me with tattoos, gauges, and ripped jeans. Now I have a good girl back at home She would call and text me all day long but tonight I was feeling kind of adventurous (This is dangerous) Uh oh, it was almost time to go; I had a few things that i had to let her know I said "I’m sorry, but excuse me, I have a question, do you have a man? And if not are you free?" Cause you could mean so much to me, and baby, we could go far, just follow me to the backseat of my car. Last night I met the girl of my dreams Yeah i know it’s crazy but it seems Looked at her as she stood next to me with tattoos, gauges, and ripped jeans Now I have a good girl back at home that would call and text me all day long But tonight I was feeling kind of adventurous (this is dangerous) Usually I’m not this type of guy but this girl, damn, she’s caught my eye Questioning what I’m about to try Leaving here with Miss Tattoos by my side And I know it isn’t right But what’s the harm in having fun for just one night Last night I met the girl of my dreams Yeah I know it’s crazy but it seems Looked at her as she stood next to me with tattoos, gauges, and ripped jeans Now I have a good girl back at home that would call and text me all day long But tonight I was feeling kind of adventurous (this is dangerous) So now the good girl back home Well she found out and left me all alone This is not what i planned Just came to listen to my favorite band. Last night I met the girl of my dreams Yeah i know it’s crazy but it seems Looked at her as she stood next to me with tattoos, gauges, and ripped jeans Now I have a good girl back at home that would call and text me all day long But tonight I was feeling kind of adventurous (this is dangerous)

Stay Close 04:01
We were young, and fearless, we'd ride the high of feelings for the moment (for the moment) we were dumb and reckless but nothing seemed to slow us down I said come with me she said you're crazy baby I promise I can make you see love that shines bright and this promise I will keep just close your eyes and put your hand in mine and soon we'll find we are right where we need to be Stay close I promise that I’ll never leave your side cause something in your eyes tells me that we are right where we wanna be we are right where we need to be and I swear girl I sell myself short every time but this time I’ve never been so sure that I found the one I wanted the one who makes me and keeps me begging for more so set yourself up for the long run cause girl I’m not going anywhere Stay close I promise that I’ll never leave your side cause something in your eyes tells me that we are right where we wanna be we are right where we need to be Just put your trust in me, we'll live so endlessly I’ll never let you go make sure you let them know I know I’m right this time true love is hard to find, but it wasn’t hard to find you I found you I found you I found you Stay close I promise that I’ll never leave your side cause something in your eyes tells me that we are right where we wanna be we are right where we need to be

Those eyes are the only place where I’ll feel safe tonight (Yeah) And I’ve lost myself a million times for you, girl I swear that this is true, when I’m with you Lost in the dark when you’re not around Scared with no hope to be found I need you here, I need you here Tonight. They say that sunsets and silhouettes bring me closer to heaven when I’m with you This is true Nothing can hold me back from what I feel girl Do you feel it too? When I’m with you. I been calling you for hours Crying out your name I don’t think things will ever be the same Where did I go wrong? Was it something I said or something I did? Please tell so I can leave this place and erase what is left of you sunsets and silhouettes bring me closer to heaven when I’m with you and this is true Nothing can hold me back from what I feel girl Do you feel it too? When I’m with you. So I guess I’ll leave here I guess I’ll leave here I guess I leave here without you Without you Without you Without you Oh without you Without you Without you sunsets and silhouettes bring me closer to heaven when I’m with you This is true Nothing can hold me back from what I feel girl Do you feel it too? When I’m with you.

I’ve been let down I been fooled once or twice But I’ve been around this track It’s hard to imagine that The things that happen to me Don’t seem like reality They don’t seem like reality To me This is a nightmare It’s like one too many sips Or one bad acid trip I’m beginning to lose myself I feel like someone else I’ve been lied to And there is nothing left I can do It’s funny how funny how things change in a world that seems so strange I am lost waiting to be found It’s time for a head count How many of you feel this way? We’ll hold on to what seems real And for the moment we’ll be ok Is it real or is it fake I can’t afford to make another mistake Is it real or is it fake? Someone get me the fuck out of this place I’m beginning to lose myself I feel like someone else I’ve been lied to And there is nothing left I can do It’s funny how funny how things change in a world that seems so strange I am lost waiting to be found It’s time for a head count How many of you feel this way? We’ll hold on to what seems real And for the moment we’ll be ok They told me told me never to talk to strangers So hello see you later Wake me up Wake me up Wake me up Wake up
