I’m a fool and your tatoo is on me for good another wasted dream, another wasted man, another wasted day with you Convince me if I’m wrong, please not when drinking gin But your imprint is on me, and it’s dark and thin Another wasted dream, another wasted man, another wasted day with you Your blueprint is on me and your blueprint stains me and your blueprint is on me for good I’ll tell you what you left, a face that’s blue from holding my breath, waiting for you Another wasted dream, another wasted man, another wasted day with you Another wasted dream, another wasted man, another wasted day with you Another wasted dream, another wasted man, another wasted day with you

I Hear a Symphony 03:54
lyrics

Everytime i watch the news i hear a symphony everytime you cough up a noose i hear a symphony late at night when the shots are like bells i hear a symphony when disillusioned is a fragrence that sells i hear a symphony and you are not alone you are not alone i swear this burrdon is not your own you are not alone in the subway of a slow dark pain i hear a symphony in the eyes of an old polish woman on that train i hear a symphony in the echo of a muscle that fled i hear a symphony in the sheets of a big and haunted bed i hear a symphony you are not alone you are not alone i swear this burrdon is not your own you are not alone from the seagulls at the garbage dump i hear a symphony at the ritz carlton sanitarium i hear a symphony in the bunting of corruption and hate i hear a symphony in a language that shows your age i hear a symphony you are not alone you are not alone i swear this burrdon is not your own you are not alone in the sparkle of a young girl’s eye in the exclusive footage of suicide in the ambition of astranauts in the eden of tinsil and rot and you are not alone you are not alone i swear this burrdon is not your own you are not alone

bad timing, years of trying to get close to you always missin’ each other and now it’s too late i saw your dimples and the way you held your cigarette i was tied to another guy help my will, i was wantin’ you still reflections don’t forget bad timing, years of trying to get close to you i read your words and how the birds went racin’ towards the sun my thoughts of you still runnin’ through in case our timing could be finding us saying goodnight to no one bad timing years of tryin’ to get you close to me maybe someday timing will bring times meant to be

Wide of the Mark 03:08
lyrics

You live the plush life in your guilded cage Your constantly afraid of being upstaged But it’s funny how you show your ass cuz really you are underclass and it’s time you acted your age You think you’re all that you should be ashames You lost your shot again cuz your a poor aim You are trigger happy with a rage a baby with a 12 gage off the track and no one to blame lalalala Your wound too tight your mind is such a maze You’re talking too fast now i’m in a daze when things are up you say their down You seem to be the king of frown and suffer from common malaize You are wide of the mark living life in the dark you think your way is the right way a child could see that your wrong way wide of the mark Your train derailed down in birmingham Why don’t you grow up and be a man Your always blamin others when your the source of trouble and you think i should be your biggest fan chorus
