Leave Out All The Rest - Oeiras Alive 2007

I dreamed I was missing
you were so scared
But no one would listen
'cause no one else cared
After my dreaming,
I woke with this fear
What am I leaving
when I'm done here?

So if you're asking me,
I want you to know

When my time comes,
forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind
some reasons to be missed
Don't resent me,
and when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
leave out all the rest

Leave out all the rest,
don't be afraid
I've taken my beating,
I've shared what I made
I'm strong on the surface,
not all the way through
I've never been perfect,
but neither have you

So if you're asking me,
I want you to know

When my time comes
forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind
some reasons to be missed
Don't resent me,
and when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory,
leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Forgetting all the hurt inside
you've learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can come
and save me from myself
I can't be who you are

When my time comes,
forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
reasons to be missed
Don't resent me,
and when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Forgetting all the hurt inside
you learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can
come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are

I can't be who you are

From The Inside - Oeiras Alive 2007

[Chester]
I don't know who to trust
no surprise
[Mike]
everyone feels so far away from me
[Chester]
heavy thoughts sift through dust
and the lies
[Mike]
trying not to break
but i'm so tired of this deceit
every time i try to make myself
get back up on my feet
all i ever think [i...] about is this
all the tiring time between
and how
trying to put my trust in you
just takes so much out of me

[Chorus][Chester/Mike]
take everything from the inside
and throw it all away
cause i swear / for the last time
i won't trust myself with you

[Chester]
tension is building inside
steadily
[Mike]
everyone feels so far away from me
[Chester]
heavy thoughts forcing their way
out of me
[Mike]
trying not to break
but i'm so tired of this deceit
every time i try to make myself
get back up on my feet
all i ever think [i...] about is this
all the tiring time between
and how
trying to put my trust in you
just takes so much out of me

[Chorus]

[Chester]
i won't waste myself for you,you,you
waste myself for you
you,you,
i
[Chorus]

Don't Stay - Oeiras Alive 2007

Sometimes I
need to remember just to breathe
sometimes I
need you to stay away from me
sometimes I'm
in disbelief I didn't know
somehow I
need you to go

don't stay
forget our memories
forget our possibilities
what you were changing me into
[just give me myself back and]
don't stay
forget our memories
forget our possibilities
take all your faithlessness with you
[just give me myself back and]
don't stay

sometimes I
feel like I trusted you too well
sometimes I
just feel like screaming at myself
sometimes I'm
in disbelief I didn't know
somehow I
need to be alone

don't stay
forget our memories
forget our possibilities
what you were changing me into
[just give me myself back and]
don't stay
forget our memories
forget our possibilities
take all your faithlessness with you
[just give me myself back and]
don't stay

[2x]
I don't need you anymore
I don't want to be ignored
I don't need one more day
of you wasting me away

with no apologies

don't stay
forget our memories
forget our possibilities
what you were changing me into
[just give me myself back and]
don't stay
forget our memories
forget our possibilities
take all your faithlessness with you
[just give me myself back and]
don't stay

don't stay
don't STAY

Given up - Oeiras Alive 2007

Wake in a sweat again
Another day's been laid to waste
In my disgrace
Stuck in my head again
Feels like I'll never leave this place
There's no escape

I'm my own worst enemy

I've given up, I'm sick of feeling
Is there nothing you can say?
Take this all away, I'm suffocating
Tell me what the fuck is wrong with me

I don't know what to take
Thought I was focused, but I'm scared
I'm not prepared
I hyperventilate
Looking for help, somehow, somewhere
And no one cares

I'm my own worst enemy

I've given up, I'm sick of feeling
Is there nothing you can say?
Take this all away, I'm suffocating
Tell me what the fuck is wrong with me

Put me out of my misery!
Put me out of my misery!
Put me out of my
Put me out of my fucking misery!

I've given up, I'm sick of feeling
Is there nothing you can say?
Take this all away, I'm suffocating
Tell me what the fuck is wrong with me

Points of Authority - Oeiras Alive 2007

Forfeit the game / Before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame / Puts your name to shame
Cover up your face / You can’t run the race
The pace is too fast / You just won't last

You love the way I look at you
While taking pleasure in the awful things you put me through
You take away if I give in
My life, my pride, is broken

You'd like to think you’re never wrong(You live what you'velearned)
You have to act like you’re someone(You live what you'velearned)
You want someone to hurt like you(You live what you've learned)
You only share what you’ve been through(You live what you'velearned)

You love the things I say I do
The way I hurt myself again just to get back at you
You take away when I give in
My life, my pride, is broken

You like to think you’re never wrong(You live what you learn)
You want to act like you’re someone(You live what you learn)
You want someone to hurt like you(You live what you learn)
You want to share what you’ve been through(You live what youlearn)

Papercut - Oeiras Alive 2007

Why does it feel like night today?
Something in here's not right today
Why am I so uptight today?
Paranoia's all I got left
I don't know what stressed me first.
Or how the pressure was fed.
But I know just what it feels like to
Have a voice in the back of my head

It's like a face that I hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face watches every time I lie
A face that laughs every time I fall
[And watches everything]
So I know that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside is hearing me, right underneath my skin

Chorus:
It's like I'm, paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a, whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I, can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right.
Beneath my skin...

I know I've got a face in me
Points out all my mistakes to me
You've got a face on the inside too
And your paranoia's probably worse
I don't know what set me off first but I know what I can't stand
Everybody acts like the fact of the matter is i can't
add up to what you can
But everybody has a face that they hold inside
A face that awakes when they closer eyes
A face watches everytime they lie
A face that laughs everytime they fall
[And watches everything]
So you know that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside is watching you too,right inside your skin

[Chorus]
It's like I'm, paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a, whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I, can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right.
Beneath my skin.

It's like I'm, paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a, whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I, can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right.
Beneath my skin...

(the face inside is right beneath your skin)
(the face inside is right beneath your skin)
(the face inside is right beneath your skin)

The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me
The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me

The sun...
It's like I'm, paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a, whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I, can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right.
Beneath my skin.
I feel the light betray me
The sun...
It's like I'm, paranoid lookin' over my back
It's like a, whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I, can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like I, can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like I, can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right.
Beneath my skin...

No More Sorrow - Oeiras Alive 2007

Are you lost in your lies?
Do you tell yourself I don't realize
Your crusade's a disguise?
Replaced freedom with fear
You trade money for lives
I'm aware of what you've done

No, no more sorrow
I've paid for your mistakes
Your time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced

I see pain, I see need
I see liars and thieves
Abuse power with greed
I had hope, I believed
But I'm beginning to think that I've been decieved
You will pay for what you've done

No, no more sorrow
I've paid for your mistakes
Your time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced

Thieves and hypocrites!
Thieves and hypocrites!
Thieves and hypocrites!

No, no more sorrow
I've paid for your mistakes
Your time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced

No more sorrow
I've paid for your mistakes
Your time is borrowed
Your time has come to be replaced

Your time has come to be replaced
Your time has come to be erased

Somewhere I Belong - Oeiras Alive 2007

(When this began)
I had nothing to say
And I get lost in the nothingness inside of me
(I was confused)
And I let it all out to find
That I’m not the only person with these things in mind
(Inside of me)
But all the vacancy the words revealed
Is the only real thing that I’ve got left to feel
(Nothing to lose)
Just stuck/ hollow and alone
And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own

[Chorus]
I wanna heal, I wanna feel what I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain I’ve held so long
(Erase all the pain till it’s gone)
I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m close to something real
I wanna find something I’ve wanted all along
Somewhere I belong

And I’ve got nothing to say
I can’t believe I didn’t fall right down on my face
(I was confused)
Looking everywhere only to find
That it’s not the way I had imagined it all in my mind
(So what am I)
What do I have but negativity
’Cause I can’t justify the way, everyone is looking at me
(Nothing to lose)
Nothing to gain/ hollow and alone
And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own

[Repeat Chorus]

I will never know myself until I do this on my own
And I will never feel anything else, until my wounds are healed
I will never be anything till I break away from me
I will break away, I'll find myself today

[Repeat Chorus]

I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m somewhere I belong
I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m somewhere I belong
Somewhere I belong

Lying from you - Oeiras Alive 2007

When I pretend everything is what I want it to be
I look exactly like what you always wanted to see
When I pretend, I can’t forget about the criminal I am
Stealing second after second just cause I know I can but
I can’t pretend this is the way it’ll stay I’m just
(trying to bend the truth)
I can’t pretend I’m who you want me to be, so I’m

[Chorus]
Lying my way from you
(No no turning back now)
I wanna be pushed aside so let me go
(No no turning back now)
Let me take back my life,I’d rather be all alone
(No turning back now)
Anywhere on my own 'cause I can see
(No no turning back now)
The very worst part of you is me

I remember what they taught to me
Remember condescending talk of who I ought to be
Remember listening to all of that and this again
So I pretended up a person who was fittin’ in
And now you think this person really is me and I’m
(Trying to bend the truth)
But the more I push the more I'm pulling away 'cuz I'm

[Chorus]
Lying my way from you
(No no turning back now)
I wanna be pushed aside so let me go
(No no turning back now)
Let me take back my life I’d rather be all alone
(No turning back now)
Anywhere on my own 'cause I can see)
(No no turning back now)
The very worst part of you
The very worst part of you is me

This isn’t what I wanted to be, I never thought that what I said would
have you running from me
Like This
This isn’t what I wanted to be, I never thought that what I said would
have you running from me
Like This
This isn’t what I wanted to be, I never thought that what I said would
have you running from me
Like This
This isn’t what I wanted to be, I never thought that what I said would
have you running from me
Like This

[Chorus]
You
(No turning back now)
I wanna be pushed aside so let me go
(No no turning back now)
Let me take back my life I’d rather be all alone
(No turning back now)
Anywhere on my own 'cause I can see
(No no turning back now)
The very worst part of you
The very worst part of you is me

One Step Closer - Oeiras Alive 2007

I cannot take this anymore

I'm saying everything I've said before
All these words they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance
Less I hear the less you'll say
But you'll find that out anyway

Just like before...

[chours:]{Mike}
Everything you say to me
{Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break}
I need a little room to breathe
{Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break}

I find the answers aren't so clear
Wish I could find a way to disappear
All these thoughts they make no sense
I find bliss in ignorance
Nothing seems to go away
Over and over again

Just like before

[chours (x)]

shut up when I'm talking to you
shut up, shut up, shut up

shut up when I'm talking to you
shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up...

...I'm about to BREAK

[chours (x2)]

Ele e Brad Delson tocaram juntos, ainda na adolescência, num banda de funk/rock com algum rap á mistura, chamada Relative Degree, que durou apenas um ano.
Dizem que é o mais prefeccionista da banda, nunca erra e está sempre disposto a dizer com sinceridade quando alguma coisa está bem feita, acabando assim, por se tornar no principal crítico da banda, colaborando para manter o nível das composições e dos Shows. O perfeccionismo e determinação acompanham-o deste pequeno. Quando era criança, ficou durante 3 horas sentado sozinho num canto da casa até aprender a apertar os atacadores dos sapatos. Como era forçado a frequentar aulas de música clássico a o piano, em criança, agora adora o instrumento e ainda hoje toca nas horas vagas.
