TRUTH

Can You Give Me My Breath Back?

You always say I need to get as far away as I can

While I've got time to play with and any risk, I'll take it

Or fade away in this suburban wasteland and watch all your plans sink right under your feet

Sink right under your feet

I can see that

We may be running out of time

in slow motion

Cause I can feel that the sense has left your mind

In slow motion

Why did you go? I can't watch

So quiet and peaceful where did I go wrong

Say you can stay ... I can't look away

You won't see me die here

You won't see me die here

I can see that

We may be running out of time

In slow motion

Cause I can feel that the sense has left your mind

In slow motion

Do you hear me now?

Screaming at the top of my lungs all night

Do you hear me now?

Screaming at the top of my lungs all night

Ask me why?

Go ahead and act like you 

don't know why

Ask me why?

I'll scream it... you blow me away

You blow me away

Can you give me my breath back?

Truth Is That It Was Always Going To End

If you wanna start a fight

You better throw the first punch

Make it a good one

And if ya wanna make it through the night

You better say my name like

The good, the bad, and the dirty.

I know what it's like to have to trade

The ones that you love for the ones you hate

Don't think I've ever used a day of my education

There's only two ways that these things can go

Good or bad and how was I to know

That all your friends won't hold any grudges

I got the final judgment...

If you wanna start a fight

You better throw the first punch

Make it a good one

And if ya wanna make it through the night

You better say my name like

The good, the bad, and the dirty

Alien Plant

Some people stay far away from the door

If there's a chance of it opening up

They hear a voice in the hall outside

And hope that it just passes by

Some people live with the fear of a touch

And the anger of having been a fool

They will not listen to anyone

So nobody tells them a lie

I know you're only protecting yourself

I know you're thinking of somebody else

Someone who hurt you

But I'm not above

Making up for the love

You've been denying you could ever feel

I'm not above doing anything

To restore your faith if I can

Some people see through the eyes of the old

Before they ever get a look at the young

I'm only willing to hear you cry

Because I am an innocent man

Oh yes I am

Some people say they will never believe

Another promise they hear in the dark

Because they only remember too well

They heard somebody tell them before

Some people sleep all alone every night

Instead of taking a lover to bed

Some people find that's it's easier to hate

Than to wait anymore

I know you don't want to hear what I say

I know you're gonna keep turning away

But I've been there and if I can survive

I can keep you alive

I'm not above going through it again

I'm not above being cool for a while

If you're cruel to me I'll understand

Some people run from a possible fight

Some people figure they can never win

And although this is a fight I can lose

The accused is an innocent man

Oh yes I am

An innocent man

You know you only hurt yourself out of spite

I guess you'd rather be a martyr tonight

That's your decision

But I'm not below

Anybody I know

If there's a chance of resurrecting a love

I'm not above going back to the start

To find out where the heartache began

Some people hope for a miracle cure

Some people just accept the world as it is

But I'm not willing to lay down and die

Because I am an innocent man

I am an innocent man

Oh yes I am

An innocent man

AYFY movie excerpt #73 - WJP 2016

When someone hurts you really horribly, your first reaction is shock.  Your first reaction is shock because even though we KNOW bad thing happen, we don't want to believe the people we love and trust will be the people that hurt us the worst.

When someone hurts you over and over without remorse...it becomes a decision you have to make.  Especially when you still love that person because it comes natural to you to love them.  Being hurt is not something you want for yourself.

When you don't want be hurt anymore and all of this pain is encompassed with your child...at some point you are forced to decide whether or not this will be your life.

You want to believe in the betterment of life...

You want to believe in it's goodness...

Yet every time you knock on it's door, no one answers.

So the only thing you can do is fight a fight which will be bloody.

Fighting isn't in your nature.

But "sometimes you have to fight to be free".
