Verse 1: Stop And look at all the people passing through the day They will never leave here, never get away From a place that's full of lies and apathy And the last thing on their minds is breaking free Breaking free Chorus: Oh you say that this is home And I'll never be alone But you don't know, you don't know Now I've only been deceived By the ones I should believe So is this home? When I'm alone? Verse 2: Stuck Is the position that I always feel I'm in I've got no one to love and no medicine To mend the constant broken promises I get From the ones who seem to barely give a shit Give a shit Chorus Outro: Oh you say that this is home Woah, Woah Oh you say that this is home Woah, Woah Oh you say that this is home Woah, Woah Oh you say that this is home

Verse 1: This dream will never be what I expected I never thought I'd see you re-directed To something from the past already broken The story of our time will be left unspoken Chorus: Tell me how it felt when you were lonely You were always the one I never meant to hurt Tell me how it felt when you were set free I will always be there for you, just don't let go Verse 2: Why did you choose to leave and hurt me again? I may not ever know but I'll still be your friend Through everything we've done, I will be without you (Please don't go now, I need you here) But I will still have hope, hope I will hold onto (Please don't go now, I need you here) Chorus Bridge 1: Tell me I don't have to do this again Tell me I am free Tell me I don't have to do this again Tell me I am free Tell me I don't have to do this again Tell me I am free Tell me I don't have to do this again Chorus Outro: I had a way out It was the death of us I had a way out It was the death of us I had a way out It was the death of us

Verse 1: We will fall before I can catch my breath (Come back, come back) You will call and tell me your last regret (Stay back, stay back) The life I spent with you has died (Come back, come back) But please don't fade away don't fly (Stay back, stay back) Chorus: Tell me what you thought When you walked away Like the last time You always left me breathless Give me every reason You're leaving me Are you okay? Or have you fallen asleep? Verse 2: Where will you be this coming year? (Come back, come back) Sing, oh sing me to sleep my dear (Stay back, stay back) For now just tell me you'll be fine (Come back, come back) Before you fall and cross the line (Stay back, stay back) Chorus

A Changing Picture (free) 04:29
Intro: A changing picture Verse 1: A changing picture of you and me A broken friendship is all I see You walked away when I was the one in need You left me hanging and now you're incomplete Pre-Chorus 1: You're incomplete Chorus: I wish the days when I could talk to you I wish they didn't have to end so soon But since the day you left me waiting here I've been giving up on you my dear Verse 2: The chance you've given wasn't deserved They broke your heart and left you unnerved They left you crying and on your knees You gasp for air now but you can't breathe Pre-Chorus 2: You can't breathe Chorus 2: I wish the days when I could talk to you I wish they didn't have to end so soon But since the day you left me waiting here I've been giving up I've been giving up Bridge: Will I ever see you again? Will you know me or is this the end? Chorus 2 Bridge

Verse 1: It's 4am and time to save you From a place you shoulda never wandered to It's 5am I lie beside you I keep on thinking, "Is it too good to be true?" Pre-Chorus 1: Is this too good to be true? Chorus: Goodbye for now I'll see you soon Maybe someday I will wake up And again I will be lying next to you But not today There is nothing I can do To make you see What's standing right in front of you Verse 2: You come again and now I need you To be the only one I've ever held onto But once again he must deny you And make it seem like it was too good to be true Pre Chorus 2: It was too good to be true Chorus Bridge: It's 4am and time to save you From a man you shoulda never run into But once again he will deny you And make it seem like Pre Chorus 2 Chorus
6.
Disappear 05:06
Verse 1: This is getting old The story always left untold The book unread The words still ringing in my head Chorus: So please don't say it'll be okay I know where we go from here You'll play along like there's nothing wrong When inside there's only fear I'll start to doubt what you're all about And if you've been sincere Then a day will come when you will run And leave me to disappear Verse 2: You're still all alone Still drowning in a monotone Pool of your tears It's been like this so many years Chorus
7.
Verse 1: We sit around thinkin' 'bout things As we come to the end Will this be the last time? Or will we ever be here again Time is ticking on the things we love But soon it'll be time for us to rise above And go on to another place So lets never forget the memories we've made Chorus: Get ready to say goodbye Get ready to change your life 'Cause this will be our very last night So grab on everything you never want to leave And take it with you on this flight Verse 2: We have our questions about the things That lie ahead But don't be frightened Just think of all the things that I have ever said There's always someone who will be there To stand by your side And hopefully You'll find someone to go along for the ride Chorus Bridge: So much love and fear With the pain and tears All coming in the last four years It's been a world apart Right from the very start But together we will have our cheers We saw a brother die We saw a brand new life We saw so many people cry We're all together here To end this final year All we have to do is try Chorus
