Rarities

I’ve been behind closed doors
Don’t know what I’ve been searching for
Some kind of release, something’s buried deep in me
The days seem to be growing longer
Growing tired, wearing thin
So with my hands pointed toward the sky
I reach for such great heights
I’ve never been so sure, I’ve never been so sure
Until this moment, until we reached for heaven
They told me not to reach for things that I can’t see
For things that just can’t be
You will learn to believe, you will remember me
These are the rarities
The few and far between, the faintest of dreams
I bottled everything, don’t know where life is taking me
We’re on a never-ending road
And if we don’t grab ahold we’re sure to lose it all

Oh My Molly

There was once a time when things were mine
When I kept my thoughts wrapped in my mind
I've been so busy waiting for the pain to subside
But all this time, I've been just fine, I'll be just fine
There was once a time I was alive
When I tried to speak my mind
We've gotten busy waiting for the pain to subside
But, all this time, we've been just fine, we'll be just fine
You take and you take
But what do you want from me?
What do you want from me, Molly?
Oh my Molly (I'll be just fine, I'll be just fine, I'll be just fine)
There will come a time when things will die
When it'll seem that my life has gone by
I've gotten busy waiting for the pain to subside
But, all this time, I've been just fine, I'll be just fine

Is this the end?
Is this the end of what we could have been?
Is this the end of the road?
Will we find our way back home?
As you stand on your stage, pedestal high
When your pillars fall down you'll look toward the sky
But all you'll see is your star as it stalls
You'll be the only one to blame for your downfall
The world is spinning out of rotation
I'm getting sicker with every second
As time passes I can barely see the end
Is this real or a dream
'Cause nothing seems real to me
We've taken steps forward only to be pushed back down
Is this all over now?
You speak like a child, you don't make any sense
Just throwing cheap thoughts into space
They float but don't strike, they're just empty
You look for the impact but the moment is fleeting
Are you with me? Are you listening to what I have to say?
I'm on my knees, begging for you to be listening

When the Good Die Young
03:49
|

Today our hearts are heavy, and all we feel is pain
It's happened times before and it all feels the same
We're looking out the windows, just waiting for the sun
It seems our time is futile 'cause the rain has begun
So hold your heads up high, and look up to the sky
Make a thousand wishes on the shooting stars
Hope one day we'll discover who we are
Life is much too short to live in a shell
The good do die young and the guilt does surely swell
So live your life the way you want to
Because tomorrow isn't promised to you
And you don't want to die with regret in your eyes
So live it up before your time comes
Because the good die young and you only live once

Que Será, Sarah

Que será, será
Que será, Sarah
You don't know the risks that you take
You don't know the regrets that you'll make
"Que será, será," I'll say
"Que será, será, indeed," you'd say
And as our heads hit these pillows tonight
With or without you by my side
Dreams of your bedroom will keep me awake
Regrets will haunt my dreams either way
Que será, será, Sarah
And what would be, was
Sometimes chances are worth taking

This is me
It's a side of me that no one's seen for a while
It's bitter and confused, not that anyone has seen a difference
My voice travels through this receiver to the other end
Where it bounces off your ears again
See me tonight, just for this one last time
And please promise me you won't forget those days
When it was still cool to make mixtapes
And when photographs weren't the only things
That seemed to slow us down
This is me with my hair soaked
Standing alone in this parking lot
I can feel the rain drops falling down my face
As they disguise the tears in my eyes
And under the dim lights of this night
I will look into your eyes one last time
I gaze on your innocent face
Your jaw shivers, shaking the cold away
You tell me you're leaving me forever
But I will forget you never
