She Will Be Loved

Beauty queen of only eighteen
She had some trouble with herself
He was always there to help her
She always belonged to someone else

I drove for miles and miles
And wound up at your door
I've had you so many times but somehow
I want more

I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
She will be loved

Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful
I know I tend to get so insecure
It doesn't matter anymore

It's not always rainbows and butterflies
It's compromise that moves us along, yeah
My heart is full and my door's always open
You can come anytime you want

I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved

I know where you hide
Alone in your car
Know all of the things that make you who you are
I know that goodbye means nothing at all
Comes back and begs me to catch her every time she falls

Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful

I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved

Please don't try so hard to say goodbye
Please don't try so hard to say goodbye

Yeah
I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain

Try so hard to say goodbye

Lirik : "Creep" - Radiohead

Radiohead
Terbentuknya band Radiohead ini cukup tua loh,, yakni tahun 1985. Band asal Abingdon, Oxfordshire, Inggris ini merilis album perdananya tahun 2002 bertajuk Creep. Yang mencengangkan bagi saya itu ex drummer Dream Theater, Mike Portnoy menyukai lagu Creep dari Radiohead ini. Well, meskipun chord-nya muter itu-itu aja, ini mungkin karena kekuatan liriknya yang cukup mode putus asa dan yang nyanyi pun dramatis dalam membawakannya,, klop deh... I'm a weirdooooo,,

Creep

Radiohead

When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
You're so fucking special

But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here

I don't care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice when I'm not around
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell I'm doing here?
I don't belong here

She's running out the door
She's running out
She runs runs runs

Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here
I don't belong here

Lirik : "In My Place" - Coldplay

Coldplay
Dari cengkok bahasanya aja sudah kentara bahwa band Coldplay ini berasal dari Inggris. dibentuk pada tahun 1996, terdiri dari Chris Martin (vocal), Jonny Buckland (gitar 1), Guy Berryman (bass) atau dikenal dengan nama Starfish dan Will Champion (drum). Lagu In My Place direkam di Parachutes, Liverpool dan mulai rilis pada Agustus 2002. Lagunya cukup enak terdengar karena ada unsur string cello yang mengiringi gitar sebagai chordnya.

In My Place


In my place, in my place
Were lines that I couldn't change
I was lost, oh yeah

I was lost, I was lost
Crossed lines I shouldn't have crossed
I was lost, oh yeah

Yeah, how long must you wait for him?
Yeah, how long must you pay for him?
Yeah, how long must you wait for him?

I was scared, I was scared
Tired and underprepared
But I wait for you

If you go, if you go
Leaving me here on my own
Well I wait for you

Yeah, how long must you wait for him?
Yeah, how long must you pay for him?
Yeah, how long must you wait for him?

Please, please, please
Come on and sing to me
To me, me

Come on and sing it out, out, out
Come on and sing it now, now, now
Come on and sing it

In my place, in my place
Were lines that I couldn't change
I was lost, oh yeah
Oh yeah

Lirik : "The Reason" - Hoobastank

Hoobastank
Hoobastank, band modern rock asal Amerika ini melejit lewat lagu The Reason yang rilis tahun 2003, Hoobastank terdiri dari Douglas Robb (vokal), Dan Estrin (gitar), Markku Lappalainen (bass) dan Chris Hesse (drum). Nama Hoobastank sendiri sebenarnya diambil dari kata "Hooba" dan "Stank". Kedua kata tersebut diambil dari bahasa pergaulan sewaktu masih duduk di bangku sekolah. Lagunya easy listening dengan suara piano sebagai intronya.

The Reason

Songwriters: Estrin, Daniel; Hesse, Chris; Lappalainen, Markku; Robb, Douglas;

I'm not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you

I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with every day
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
That's why I need you to hear

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you

And the reason is you
And the reason is you
And the reason is you

I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you

I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you

Lirik : "Kiss Me" - New Found Glory

New Found Glory
Lagu Kiss Me ini sebenarnya merupakan ciptaan Stephen Duffy dalam band Sixpence None the Richer yang rilis tahun 1997 dan menjadi salah satu song themes dari film serial remaja Dawson's Creek pada masa itu. 10 tahun kemudian digarap ulang oleh band asal Florida, Amerika bernama New Found Glory, lagu kiss me ini justru menjadi rock yang lebih hingar bingar dari asalnya yang pop melancoly. Nih liriknya,,,

Kiss me out of the bearded barley
Nightly, beside the green, green grass
Swing, swing, swing the spinning step
You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress.

[Chorus:]
Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
Lift your open hand
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance
Silver moon's sparkling
So kiss me

Kiss me down by the broken tree house
Swing me upon its hanging tire
Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat
We'll take the trail marked on your father's map

[Chorus (repeat)]

Lirik : "Us" - Regina Spector

Ini dia, lagu pop minimalis ala Regina Spector penyanyi berambut ikal asal Rusia yang lahir pada 18 February tahun 1980 di Moscow, USSR dengan nama lengkap Regina Ilyinichna Spektor. Dalam lagu berjudul Us ini Regina Spector bernyanyi sembari memainkan piano dengan cengkok vocal falset yang cukup sexy menurut saya. Jadilah lagu ini menjadi salah satu soundtrack film romansa 500 days of summer. Akustik pianonya terasa banget meskipun pilihan nada nada tidak terlalu rumit. Easy listening bangetlah,, so? Just enjoy it.


"Us"


They made a statue of us
And it put it on a mountain top
Now tourists come and stare at us
Blow bubbles with their gum
Take photographs have fun, have fun

They'll name a city after us
And later say it's all our fault
Then they'll give us a talking to
Then they'll give us a talking to
Because they've got years of experience
We're living in a den of thieves
Rummaging for answers in the pages
We're living in a den of thieves
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious

We wear our scarves just like a noose
But not 'cause we want eternal sleep
And though our parts are slightly used
New ones are slave labor you can keep

We're living in a den of thieves
Rummaging for answers in the pages
We're living in a den of thieves
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious

They made a statue of us
They made a statue of us
The tourists come and stare at us
The sculptor's marble sends regards
They made a statue of us
They made a statue of us
Our noses have begun to rust
We're living in a den of thieves
Rummaging for answers in the pages
Were living in a den of thieves

And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious
And it's contagious

Lirik : "Dear God" - Avenged Sevenfold

Avanged Sevenfold tidak melulu hingar bingar dalam memainkan musik rock, lewat lagu slow rock-nya kali ini berjudul Dear God mereka menggarapnya dengan kualitas mixing sound yang menawan. Set drum yang terdengar renyah, sayangnya : "Avenged Sevenfold drummer the Rev was found dead at his home in Huntington Beach, California on Monday december 28, 2 10. He was 28 years old". The Rev sang drummer telah tiada dan untuk kepentingan tour Avenged Sevenfold menghadirkan Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater Drummers) sebagai additional player. Btw tuk menambah info discografi Avenged Sevenfold ini terbentuk tahun 1999. Band ini terdiri dari vokalis M. Shadows, lead guitar Synyster Gates, Zacky Vengeance rhythm guitar, dan bassist Johnny Christ. Lagu ini cocok sekali nuansanya ketika diputar saat bepergian, secara liriknya memang pas buat di perjalanan. Di bagian reff lagu Dear God ini ada sedikit nggrenjel pengucapan liriknya yang pas "We all need that person who can be true to you",,

Dear God

Songwriters: Baker, Zachary James; Haner, Jr., Brian Elwin; Sanders, Matthew Charles; Sullivan, James Owen;

A lonely road crossed another cold state line
Miles away from those I love, purpose hard to find
While I recall all the words you spoke to me
Can't help but wish that I was there, back where I'd love to be, oh yeah

Dear God, the only thing I ask of You
Is to hold her when I'm not around, when I'm much too far away
We all need that person who can be true to you
But I left her when I found her and now I wish I'd stayed
Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired, I'm missing you again, oh no, once again

There's nothing here for me on this barren road
There's no one here while the city sleeps and all the shops are closed
Can't help but think of the times I've had with you
Pictures and some memories will have to help me through, oh yeah

Dear God, the only thing I ask of You
Is to hold her when I'm not around, when I'm much too far away
We all need that person who can be true to you
I left her when I found her and now I wish I'd stayed
?Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired, I'm missing you again, oh no, once again

Well, some search never finding a way
Before long they waste away
I found you, something told me to stay
I gave in to selfish ways
And how I miss someone to hold when hope begins to fade

A lonely road crossed another cold state line
Miles away from those I love, purpose hard to find

Dear God, the only thing I ask of You
Is to hold her when I'm not around, when I'm much too far away
We all need the person who can be true to you
I left her when I found her and now I wish I'd stayed
Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired, I'm missing you again, oh no, once again

Lirik : "Best I Ever Had (Grey Sky Morning)" - Vertical Horizon

Siapa yang tidak kenal Vertical Horizon? Banyak,, saya sendiri kalau bukan lewat lagu berjudul Best I Ever Had aja tidak kenal sama band pop/alternative rock asal Amerika ini.

Langsung saja berikut lirik dari Best I Ever Had -nya Vertical Horizon, simak aja.

"Best I Ever Had (Grey Sky Morning)"


So you sailed away
Into a grey sky morning
Now I'm here to stay
Love can be so boring

Nothing's quite the same now
I just say your name now

[Chorus]
But it's not so bad
You're only the best I ever had
You don't want me back
You're just the best I ever had

So you stole my world
Now I'm just a phony
Remembering the girl
Leaves me down and lonely

Send it in a letter
Make yourself feel better

[Chorus]
But it's not so bad
You're only the best I ever had
You don't need me back
You're just the best I ever had

And it may take some time to
Patch me up inside
But I can't take it so I
Run away and hide
And I may find in time that
You were always right
You're always right

So you sailed away
Into a grey sky morning
Now I'm here to stay
Love can be so boring

What was it you wanted
Could it be I'm haunted

[Chorus]
But it's not so bad
You're only the best I ever had
I don't want you back
You're just the best I ever had
The best I ever had
The best I ever


Lagu melankolis dari Vertical Horison berjudul Best I Ever Had ini asyik aja tuk di dengerin. Lagu bertemakan cinta memuja wanitalah pokoknya.

Lirik : Album "Static Impulse" - James Labrie

James Labrie, merupakan salah satu vokalis rock favorit di dunia rock progressive. Bersama dengan Dream Theater yang sarat akan skill dan teknik, James Labrie mampu menjadi front liner band ini dengan lengkingan dan power suara vokal yang memadai. Di bulan September barusan saja ini ia merelease album solo yang dikemas dengan nama Static Impulse. Rilis album Static Impulse milik James Labrie ini hampir bersamaan dengan kabar keluarnya Mike Portnoy (perintis & drummer Dream Theater). Sebagai fan fanatik Dream Theater saya cukup tercengang lantaran Mike Portnoy sekarang bermain bersama Avanged Sevenfold menggantikan drummer Jimmy Sulliva yang telah meninggal. Wew,, apapun keputusannya, saya yakin mereka para personil Dream Theater tetap eksis karena ya jelas lah mereka telah melegenda di dunia rock. Justru penasaran seperti apa sih Dream Theater tanpa Mike Portnoy? Atau, tambah gimana sih Avanged sevenfold bareng Mike portnoy? Seperti James Labrie di dalam Album yang baru Static Impulse ini yang tanpa sentuhan tangan-tangan personil Dream Theater tetap bagus. Malah lebih terasa beda kearah metal melodic modern nan progressive. Cieh kereeeen! Salut aku sama pak lek James Labrie.

4. Euphoric
5. Over The Edge
6. I Need You
7. Who You Think I Am
8. I Tried

10. This Is War

1. One More Time


[Guillory/LaBrie]

I tried to pretend that you were fine
And all was okay now
But I couldn't ignore the rapid decline
That's taken you somehow
I watched it slowly take over you
It left you so helpless
There was really nothing that I could do
But sit there and witness

I saw your face in all my dreams
The greatest thing I've ever seen
Sent crazy shivers up and down my spine
It was like yesterday
If only I could make you stay
I wish that I could see you one more time

I wasn't ready to say goodbye
Because it's so hard to
It felt like I was going to die
The moment I lost you
My life's so crazy now that you're gone
Don't want to believe it
And all the emptiness is so strong
I really can't take it

I saw your face in all my dreams
The greatest thing I've ever seen
Sent crazy shivers up and down my spine
It was like yesterday
If only I could make you stay
I wish that I could see you one more time


2. Jekyll Or Hyde


[Guillory/LaBrie]

Rehabilitated me
You want me to lie
Free to go out on the streets
My fears in overdrive

I'll stick out as if I'm an alien
Just like that kid that never quite fit in
A fish in a bowl is where you'd rather me
Make sure I'm fed and be my eyes to see

A living hell no pearly gates
No second chance for this inmate

Don't know if I'll survive
Doctor Jekyll or Mister Hyde
I feel them both collide
Not easy to decide

Why celebrate
A waste of time
Right here's where I belong
They'd like to think
They healed my wounds
Believe me they are wrong

I did my time, I did it well
Propaganda, learned to gel
Can't shake the past
They won't let me
Infallible hypocrisy

Adieu farewell, I'm out of place
No second chance
It's much too late

Don't know if I'll survive
Doctor Jekyll or Mister Hyde
I feel them both collide
Not easy to decide

I have no voice
They shut me down
Who listens at any rate
I'll chart a course
In this playground
And follow it one day

Typecast
Stuck on this roundabout
A failed system
Inside and Out

Don't know if I'll survive
Doctor Jekyll or Mister Hyde
I feel them both collide
Not easy to decide


3. Mislead


[Guillory/LaBrie]

I can't be
Here not a...
One moment longer

My skin feels
It's crawling
Actions appalling

Ratified
Justified
To keep us quiet

Dominion
Opinion
The streets will riot

Whose interests are we supporting?
Convinced us in their reporting

Mislead
(No more lame excuses)
Mislead
(they should look the part)
We'll paint their lips a crimson red
Bang it over their heads
Then none of us will feel Mislead

It's your move
Can feel it
Tension is rising

No facial
Expression
But know they're lying

Forefathers
Words spoken
The constitution

Infected
Corrupted
Our institutions

Whose interests are we supporting?
Convinced us in their reporting

Mislead
(No more lame excuses)
Mislead
(they should look the part)
We'll paint their lips a crimson red
Bang it over their heads
Then none of us will feel Mislead

They've fallen short
Again to hell with their credentials
If we are to survive
Realize our full potential

Mislead
(No more lame excuses)
Mislead
(they should look the part)
We'll paint their lips a crimson red
Bang it over their heads
Then none of us will feel Mislead


4. Euphoric


[Guillory/LaBrie]

I got her call last night
Let me know she had a good time
There was something, it just feels right
I wish it may, I hope that it might

Tired of bumming the streets alone
No relationships on my own
Forgot what it was like 'til she
'Til this lovely girl she touched me

I never felt
Euphoric so high
I just bumped into the man in the sky

You got me I'm yours
A spell on me
Look forward to seeing you
I'm outta control
Every reason to be
A romantic rendezvous

Don't tell me this is wrong
Hard to read but we get along
Let down my guard it's clear
A thought exterior means nothing here

I'll admit she's a bit odd
No centerfold or a great bod
What's up will all that hype
Stick chic's, bulimic, ain't my type

I never felt
Euphoric so high
I just bumped into the man in the sky

You got me I'm yours
A spell on me
Look forward to seeing you
I'm outta control
Every reason to be
A romantic rendezvous

Nobody's wrong here
Nobody's right
Nobody's wrong here
Nobody's right
Nobody's wrong here
Nobody's right
Nobody's right
Nobody's right

I never felt
Euphoric so high
I just bumped into the man in the sky

You got me I'm yours
A spell on me
Look forward to seeing you
I'm outta control
Every reason to be
A romantic rendezvous

She's got me I'm hers
A spell on me
Look forward to seeing her
I'm outta control
She's my ecstasy
I'm her junkie and she's my cure


5. Over The Edge


[Guillory/LaBrie/Sfogli]

I can't make it out
Was she looking my way
Checking to my right
But no one fit the part
She's messing with my head
But who am I to say

Shy boy his head in the sand
No risk of rejection then

You saw me twisting
You read my mind
I'm driving carelessly
Over the Edge
Threw caution to the wind
But who cares
I'm driving carelessly
Over the Edge

Paranoid I'm not
A warped sense of humor
So called friends
Never thinking she'd go this far
A raving dark beauty
Saddles up beside me

No gene pool lottery here
Last time I checked in the mirror

You saw me twisting
You read my mind
I'm driving carelessly
Over the Edge
Threw caution to the wind
But who cares
I'm driving carelessly
Over the Edge

Over the Edge
Over the Edge
I'm driving, driving
Over the Edge
Over the Edge
I'm driving

You saw me twisting
You read my mind
I'm driving carelessly
Over the Edge
Threw caution to the wind
But who cares
I'm driving carelessly
Over the Edge

She saw me twisting
She read my mind
Was driving carelessly
Over the Edge
No rope to reel me in
Out of time
I'm driving carelessly
Over the Edge


6. I Need You


[Guillory/LaBrie]

Caged in
With all the crackheads
Facing my fears all rolled up into one
Waiting
seems like forever
It's only the first day
Guess hell has begun

Can't find a way out
No

My head
Spinning in circles
Don't know what's up
And I don't know what's down
Wake up
This is a nightmare
Wanna get off of this merry-go-round

I can't do this on my own
And I don't have to be alone

(So)
Help me
Send calvary to the rescue
I need you to
Save me
I have nothing to hold on to
I need you

Searching
Looking for answers
Wondering why does it have to be me
Then you
Lifted the curtain
Just so my blind eyes would finally see

I can't do this on my own
And I don't have to be alone

(So)
Help me
Send calvary to the rescue
I need you to
Save me
I have nothing to hold on to
I need you

I'm filled with doubt
So get me out
I don't care for this one bit
I need blue skies
To dry my eyes
I just can't take it
No

I can't do this on my own
And I don't have to be alone

(So)
Help me
Send calvary to the rescue
I need you to
Save me
I have nothing to hold on to
I need you
(I am broken
Rescue me)
I need you to
Save me
I have nothing to hold on to
I need you

7. Who You Think I Am


[Guillory/LaBrie]

You think that I'm losing my mind
You think that I'm hopelessly blind
You Think that I'm weak but I'm strong
You think that I'm down but your wrong

You don't
Have a clue
Do you?

Nothing you say
Nothing you do
Matters to me
It's really nothing new
So laugh all you want
Cause I don't give a damn
I'm not, I'm not who you think I am

You think that I'm just a disgrace
You think that I'm just wasted space
You think that I'm dumb
Well nice try.
You think that I'm lost, its a lie

You don't
Have a clue
Do you?

Nothing you say
Nothing you do
Matters to me
It's really nothing new
So laugh all you want
Cause I don't give a damn
I'm not, I'm not who you think I am

You don't know the first thing
You don't know the first thing
No.
You don't know the first thing
You don't know the first thing about me

Nothing you say
Nothing you do
Matters to me
It's really nothing new
So laugh all you want
Cause I don't give a damn
I'm not, I'm not who you think I am

Nothing you say
Nothing you do
Matters to me
It's really nothing new
So laugh all you want
Cause I don't give a damn
I'm not, I'm not who you think I am

Who you think I am
I don't give a damn
Who you think I am
I don't give a damn


8. I Tried


[Guillory/LaBrie]

What have you to prove
I honestly don't care
It's all so petty, so petty
I cant get in a word
So go and speak your mind
I hope, your happy, your happy

If there's one thing
You remember
Though I tried to warn you
I don't have all the answers
But I know a thing or two
I see it, believe it
You've been eaten up by pride
If there's one thing
You remember
Remember
I tried

I don't how how
To make you understand
Cause you wont listen, wont listen
Whats come over you
It's getting out of hand
Just stop
Your bitchin' your bitchin

If there's one thing
You remember
Though I tried to warn you
I don't have all the answers
But I know a thing or two
I see it, believe it
You've been eaten up by pride
If there's one thing
You remember
Remember
I tried

If there's one thing
You remember
Though I tried to warn you
I don't have all the answers
But I know a thing or two
I see it, believe it
You've been eaten up by pride
If there's one thing
You remember
Remember
I tried


9. Just Watch Me


[Guillory/LaBrie]

I've realized the errors of my ways
I've come to terms that I've gone astray
I'm far from perfect

I know that I have let you down
But that will change this time around
I'll earn your respect

No promises broken
That's for sure
No wishin' and hopin'
I find a magic cure
This time I'll do things differently
This time I will do it
Just watch me

It's clear you're scared and I understand
It's not been great just like we planned
But I will show you

No promises broken
That's for sure
No wishin' and hopin'
I find a magic cure
This time I'll do things differently
This time I will do it
Just watch me


10. This Is War


[Guillory/LaBrie]

Tell me what are you trying to prove
Spreading lies spinning stories
What gain do you get from all of this
Is it fame is it glory

Don't try to be someone that you're not
'Cause you know I'm not buying
The more that you open up your mouth
It's more time that you're lying

It's time
To re-
Define
You and me
It's clear
That you
Are my
Enemy

I'm ready
So why don't you come get me
What are you waiting for
There's no point in charades any more
This is war
This is war

I see how you're playing innocent
But I know what you're doing
You smile as you stab me in the back
So that trouble is brewing

To you it's all one big silly game
Just to see me defeated
I hope that you've gotten all your thrills
Did you get what you needed

It's time
To re-
Define
You and me
It's clear
That you
Are my
Enemy

I'm ready
So why don't you come get me
What are you waiting for
There's no point in charades any more
This is war
This is war

You couldn't leave well enough alone
The lights are on but nobody's home

It's time
To re-
Define
You and me
It's clear
That you
Are my
Enemy

I'm ready
So why don't you come get me
What are you waiting for
There's no point in charades any more
This is war
This is war


11. Superstar


[LaBrie/Guillory]

A masquerade
The spotlights glare
Exquisite fads to view
Your every move
Fixated eyes on you

The camera waits as you prepare
It comes so easily
Once borrowed shoes
Now high society
A celebrity

Your dreams
Are now reality
You've got everything
Adored
A two edged sword
Magazines, silver screens
A Superstar

You cannot stand what you've become
It's lost all its appeal
Your entourage
Has no clue what you feel
This time it's for real

Your dreams
Are now reality
You've got everything
Adored
A two edged sword
Magazines, silver screens
A Superstar

Not sure you like what you've become
How you think, what you feel
Should you care, how you look
What you're paid to put on
Know your part of the deal

Your dreams
Are now reality
You've got everything
Adored
A two edged sword
Magazines, silver screens
A Superstar

Influence the youth
Adored
Unbecoming of you
Exposed
One will never know
Nothing they can prove
A true Superstar's
What you are


12. Coming Home



[Guillory/LaBrie]

Feels like rain
Closing in on me again
Cant deny
Angry skies are falling
So farewell
Wish there was some other way
Cant undo, There's no use in trying
I hope that they will understand

Know that
I wont be coming home
Far away from where I belong
Tell my wife, my best friend
Both my children I love them
Know that I,
Know that I wont be coming home

Speak the truth
Know me for the man I am
Don't you cry
Water came from dying
Know me for the man I am

Know that
I wont be coming home
Far away from where I belong
Tell my wife, my best friend
Both my children I love them
Know that I,
Know that I wont be coming home

What if I,
I told you then
Could you help me
Would you help to
Set me free
I cant feel any remorse
Have no recourse

Apathy
Apathy

Running out of time
I hope they will understand

Know that
I wont be coming home
Far away from where I belong
Tell my wife, my best friend
Both my children I love them
Know that I,
Know that I wont be coming home
