Crawling - Oeiras Alive 2007

Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real

There’s something inside me that pulls beneath the surface,
Consuming / Confusing
This lack of self control I fear is never ending,
Controlling / I can’t seem

To find myself again
My walls are closing in
[Mike](Without a sense of confidence and I’m convinced
That there’s just too much pressure to take)
I’ve felt this way before
So insecure

Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real

Discomfort, endlessly has pulled itself upon me
Distracting/Reacting
Against my will I stand beside my own reflection
It’s haunting how I can’t seem..

To find myself again
My walls are closing in
[Mike](Without a sense of confidence and I’m convinced
That there’s just too much pressure to take)
I’ve felt this way before
So insecure

Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real

Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing confusing what is real

In The End - Oeiras Alive 2007

(Chester) It starts with
(Mike) One thing,
I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind
I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
(Chester) All I know
(Mike) Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
(Chester) It's so unreal
Didn't look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on, but didn't even know
I wasted it all just to
(Chester) Watch you go
(Mike) I kept everything inside
And even though I tried it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually
Be amemory of a time when

(Refrão)

I tried so hard
And got so far
In the end,
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all,
In the end
It doesn't even matter

One thing, I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how
(Chester) I tried so hard
(Mike) In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times,you fought with me
I'm surprised it got so
(Chester) It got so far
(Mike)Things aren't the way they were before
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me
(Chester) In the end
(Mike) You kept everything inside
And even though I tried
It all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually
Be a memory
Of a time when I

(Refrão)

I tried so hard
And got so far
In the end,
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
In the end
It doesn't even matter

(Chester) I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There's only one thing you should know

I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There's only one thing you should know

(Refrão)
I tried so hard
And got so far
In the end,
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
In the end
It doesn't even matter

Breaking The Habit - Oeiras Alive 2007

Memories consume
Like opening the wound
I'm picking me apart again
You all assume
I'm safe here in my room
Unless I try to start again

I don't want to be the one
The battles always choose
cause inside I realize
That I'm the one confused

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I know it's not alright
So I'm
Breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
Tonight

Clutching my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I hurt much more
Than anytime before
I had no options left again

I don't want to be the one
The battles always choose
cause inside I realize
That I'm the one confused

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So I'm
Breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
Tonight

I'll paint it on the walls
cause I'm the one at fault
I'll never fight again
And this is how it ends

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
But now I have some clarity
To show you what I mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
Tonight

Pushing Me Away (Piano Version) - Oeiras Alive 2007

I've lied to you
The same way that I always do
This is the last smile
That I'll fake for the sake of being with you

Pre chorus:
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
The sacrifice is never knowing

Chorus:(2x)
Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see your testing me pushes me away

I've tried, like you
To do everything you wanted too
This is the last time
I'll take the blame for the sake of being with you

[Pre chorus]
[Chorus (2x)]

Pushes me away…(2x)

Numb - Oeiras Alive 2007

[Chester]
I'm tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless
Lost under the surface
I don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure
Of walking in your shoes
[Mike] Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
[Mike]Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow

[Chester]
I've
Become so numb
I can't feel you there
Become so tired
So much more aware
I'm becoming this
All i want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you

[Chester]
Can't you see that you're smothering me
Holding too tightly
Afraid to lose control
Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you

[Mike] Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
[Chester] Every step that i take is another mistake to you
[Mike] Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
[Chester] And every second i waste is more than I can take

[Chester]
I've
Become so numb
I can't feel you there
Become so tired
So much more aware
I'm becoming this
All i want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you

[Chester]
And I know
I may end up failing too
But I know
You were just like me
With someone disappointed in you

[Chester]
I've
Become so numb
I can't feel you there
Become so tired
So much more aware
I'm becoming this
All i want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you

[Chester]
I've
Become so numb
I can't feel you there
[Mike]
I'm tired of being what you want me to be
I've
Become so numb
I can' t feel you there
[Mike]
I'm Tired of being what you want me to be
