Good Mother

I've got money in my pocket
I like the color of my hair
I've got a friend who loves me
Got a house, I've got a car
I've got a good mother
And her voice is what keeps me here

(chorus)
Feet on ground
Heart in hand
Facing forward
Be yourself
I've, I've never wanted anything
No I've, no I've, I've never wanted anything
So bad... so bad

Cardboard masks of all the people I've been
Thrown out with all the rusted, tangled,
Dented, God Damned miseries
You could say I'm hard to hold
But if you knew me you'd know
I've got a good father
And his strength is what makes me cry

(chorus)

I've got money in my pockets
I like the color of my hair
I've got a friend who loves me
Got a house, I've got a car
I've got a good mother
And her voice is what keeps me here

Feet on ground
Heart in hand
Facing forward
Be yourself

Feet on ground
Heart in hand
Facing forward
Be yourself
Just be yourself
Just be yourself

Feet on ground, heart in hand
Feet on ground, heart in hand

Hangin' By a Thread

When I cry, I close my eyes
And every tear falls down inside
And I pray with all my might
That I will find my heart in someone's arms
When I cry, cry

When I cry, when I am sad
I think of every awful thing I ever did
When I cry, there is no love
No, there is nothing that can comfort me enough
When I cry
Cry, cry

(chorus)
The salt inside my body ruins
Everyone I come close to
My hands are barely holding up my head
Oh, I'm so tired of looking at my feet
And all the secrets that I keep
My heart is barely hangin' by a thread
Hangin' by a thread

Oh, look at me
At all I've done
I've lost so many things that I so dearly love
I lost my soul
I lost my pride
Oh, I lost any hope of having a good life
So I cry
Cry, cry

(chorus)

I miss you all
I wish I was
With you now
I wish I was

She

Bend and I'll break you
Leave and I'll take you back again
So bend and I'll break you
Leave and I'll take you back again

If she bends, then she breaks
She loves you but then she takes it away
She bends and she bows
She's cold, but she melts like snow

Bend and I'll break you
Sleep and I'll wake you tonight
Hey, don't you want to understand?
Understand that

If she bends, then she breaks
She loves you but then she takes it away
She bends and she bows
She's cold, but she melts like snow
She bends, she breaks

She hates you but then she makes a mistake

Confused and a lot to take
And where to fall out and when
Hey, yes
She won't be good to you
And I hate the way I am

So, bend and I'll break you
Leave and I'll take you back again
Hey, don't you want to understand?
Understand that

If she bends, then she breaks
She loves you but then she takes it away
She bends and she bows
She's cold but she melts like snow
She bends and she breaks
She hates you, but then she makes a mistake

Bend and I'll break you down

She bends and she breaks
She bends and she bows
She's cold but she melts like snow

Surrounded

I was there
When you shone as bright as Bethlehem from afar
I was there When you were young and strong and perverted
And everything that makes a young man a star
Oh you were a star
I was there
And I swear to God
On my mother's grave
On everything I have or ever will embrace
I was there And I saw it with my own two eyes

And now it's all around me
It's all around me
I'm surrounded
And now it's all around me
It's all around me
You surround me like a circle

I was there
C'mon and tell me
I wasn't worth sticking it out for
Well I was there
And I know I was worth it
'Cause if I wasn't worth it
That makes me worse off then you are

Chorus

But don't you lose sight of me now
Don't you lose sight of me now
Don't lose sight of me now

'Cause I was there when they dropped the bomb
You know I remember the bomb
And I still hear the bomb
And I still fight the bomb
You know I still fear the bomb
You know I still hate the bomb
Sometimes I still get the call

So don't you lose sight of me now

Chorus

Out of My Head

Sometimes I feel
Like I am drunk behind the wheel
The wheel of possibility
However it may roll
Give it a spin
See if you can somehow factor in
You know there's always more than one way
To say exactly what you mean to say

Chorus:
Was I out of my head? Was I out of my mind?
How could I have ever been so blind?
I was waiting for an indication
It was hard to find
Don't matter what I say only what I do
I never mean to do bad things to you
So quiet but I finally woke up
If you're sad then it's time you spoke up too

Chorus
Repeat Chorus
