Elise 03:34
Dear Elise your sweet perfume It lingers in my room Sweet Elise your lipstick stains And that color of red it never fade You walk around town with your head held high The men they stare when you walk on by Your like a thief in the dead of night But I'm not crying I'm not crying Dear Elise you want him too You can have him here and lie as you do I've made you a parting gift and Its made of stone, with your names on it, and the words forevermore Young Elise eyes of envy green You want every man you have ever seen Naive Elise long hair of gold You think you'll never grow old You can have my man I'm not crying You and him forever you can stop trying You and him together six feet underground You can have my man I'm not crying You and him forever you can stop trying You and him together six feet underground Dear Elise you want him too You can have him here and lie as you do I've made you a parting gift and Its made of stone, with your names on it, and the words Rest In Peace

Liar, Liar 03:14
Liar liar souls on fire You got a habit to break Liar liar souls on fire You got a habit to break I believe in you like the man in the moon and like the sandman who comes at night Liar liar souls on fire Find another fool to take I need you like a hole on my shoe I need you like a rainy day in June I'm through, ha, ya I'll be ok Cause you, your gonna burn anyway I like you like a cut from a knife I like you cause your always right I'm through, ha, ya ill be ok Cause you, your gonna burn anyway I believe you like the creep at door I believe you like two and three make four I'm through, ya I'll be ok Cause you, your gonna burn anyway

Life seems to hard without it My nights are consumed around it Even though I try I can't deny the fact that I feel like I might die Without it Things seem clearer through the end of the bottle I don't want to, but the drink says why bother I don't want to lose control but the bottle owns my soul And it's speaking to me out loud, So Here's to another We've been in a love hate relationship for many years When I try to quit you I only see my many fears And when I stop, I only withdrawal again And end up on the floor crawling back to you The bottles likes it when I'm isolated When I take a break, he becomes frustrated When I pull back but the bottle pulls me in again I have no will to fight and start over again

Love Song 04:07
I need a love that will pull through wreckage I need love that will pull me out of flames I need a love that will put back the pieces I need a love to jump start this heart again Jump start my heart I am a fighter but I'm barely breathing I have taken on the task of trying to heal I've been hiding while I've been patiently waiting for someone For someone I need a love that will pull through wreckage I need love that will pull me out of flames I need a love that will put back the pieces I need a love to jump start this heart again Jump start my heart Jump start my heart again Crawl through the wreckage Crawl through the wreckage Crawl through the wreckage I am a fighter but I'm barely breathing I have taken on the task of trying to heal I've been hiding while I've been patiently waiting for someone For someone Crawl through the wreckage Crawl through the wreckage Crawl through the wreckage Crawl through the wreckage Crawl through the wreckage Crawl through the wreckage Jump start this heart again

Weston 03:52
I got some crazy friends in Weston Lock up for their lives I like visit them on the frequent Even on a dark foggy night Oh cause seeing them in their ghostly forms It makes me feel more alive Cause one thing you don't know about them Guess what, they've all died Oh cause in this other world they live, It makes ours seem so much better Ooooh and this how is how I keep my life my life, I keep it all together, we're birds of a feathers Comparing my life with their forever My friends they may be from the unknown But they've got a lot to say Shady figures come to light As they whisper in my ear at night They ask if I want to join their lives But I say No I don't die They said they I could be their daily friend And we would live in neverland I don't know anymore so I ran and closed the dark door But by then it was to late So I'm stuck forevermore place I got some crazy friends in Weston Lock up for their lives I used to visit them on the frequent Until they locked me up for my life

Who are you ghost in the mirror I don't know who you are It may be just the liquor But will you take me to the dark Take me to the dark I sleep with my eyes wide open Afraid to see what's in my dreams The light of morning stings my eyes Will you let me see what you see Take me to the dark Cause lost my way a long time go Running from the past and pain My breathing is becoming short Ghost in the mirror Won't you call my name This life is strangely dim My path has had little light What lies behind that mirror is waiting A new way of seeing life Take me to the dark
