Daily Dose Of Pain

I walk through the rain, try to get through the day
In the middle of it all, I stop to refrain
And I think of all my past memories, now a permanent stain
Take it all in, and put on my fake grin
I walk into the barren lonely streets
Cause that's all they've ever been
Night time dreaming, star lights gleaming
It all seeming, like a dream
Cause it seems by now that the dream, ain't coming true
I'm really just floating around, in the crowd
Trying to get around but it's putting me down
And I don't know why I try, because I know all I am is
Going insane, out of my brain
I think I'm gonna need to stop and refrain for a moment
Feeling shame, am I the one to blame
It's all a game that has my name
And I take it down with a glass everyday
It's all a part of my daily dose of pain
Don't blame me if I one day take a train out of town
You didn't expect me to really wanna stick around
Every single day just keep on putting me down
Someone get me out of here right now
Well I can't really take it anymore
And I can't really fake it anymore
I'm all fucked up inside, and I'm forced to dry my eyes every night
Until my angels come to tell me, it's alright, it's alright
Maybe I'm just, going insane, out of my brain
I think I'm gonna need to stop and refrain for a moment
Feeling shame, am I the one to blame
It's all a game that has my name
And I take it down with a glass everyday
It's all a part of my daily dose of pain

Documentary

Let's go see a movie
And when we go we'll let the big screen tell us our story
I'll let the scenes play out and decide for me
If I have it in me, to let you go
I'm having trouble trying to foresee
As we walk around the forty
The outcome and the ending
When we sit down for the show
I can't keep concealing my hurt inside of a jar
But I think you've already seen it, for me it's not that hard
I need to lay you down quietly before this goes too far
Then while we were watching
Something hit my head that I could not see
The character on the screen, a perfect reflection of me
Like the mirror on my door
It must be a documentary
About the broken hearts, how can they still keep their beat
Well you ain't felt nothing til you got marks to see
When it breaks patch it up, and stand tall
And I'm so happy that for this you were there
Though I hold you, you're too heavy for my heart to bear
And I couldn't let you see when I teared into your hair
A passionate love scene, two factors in their play
My burning longing for romance, has never gone away
I reflect my own reflection, are we the mirror to them
Is this all just a movie, can I do another take then
And like the hero I kissed you
As the loser on the screen does too
And when it was all over
The cinema was lit with a blinding light so hopeful
And you looked and noticed my eyes so tearful
With your cameras staring in wonder
Then it was all over
If I can't hold myself how can I hold someone else any longer
But I would if I could if I ever get any stronger
Everyday I'm getting closer
Tonight I'll go to sleep, not passing out on a call
And in my dreams, on the big screen I'll stand tall
I'll make a documentary, from the entry, to my fall

Stairway

I must learn to know when not to talk
Who I can trust and who I cannot
I need to learn not to talk about me
Lay low don't speak so the people don't see
I need to learn not to fall so much
Before I learn the difference between love and lust
I must learn now how to get better
Cause girls don't like guys that don't have shit together
I was halfway up the stairs, got pushed back down
Right back where I buried my sorrow in the ground
And I'll do it all again so I can climb back up
I just hope this time I'll be strong enough
I gotta learn not to oversleep
What can I say I ain't at my peak
I gotta learn not to ignore the alarm
Oh but how can I ignore the sad slumber's charm
I've got to learn to live for the day
Don't say no to plans because I'm afraid
I need to learn to get out and see
The places to go and the people to meet
I was halfway up the stairs, got pushed back down
Right back where I buried my sorrow in the ground
And I'll do it all again so I can climb back up
I just hope this time I'll be strong enough
Cause this stairway has got me losing
And I'm climbing without any railings
Well I can't see clear what's at the top, but I know it's me
And the things that make me happy
I need to learn to better appreciate
The things I've got and what is at stake
I need to look out and learn to breathe in
They're out to party but I'm out the win
Cause I know well, the things I've learned
I know them well
And I, I'm making a turn
And I, I'm making a turn
I was halfway up the stairs, got pushed back down
Right back where I buried my sorrow in the ground
And I'll do it all again so I can climb back up
Cause I know, this time I'll be strong enough
