Can We Change
I hope your happy.
In the life that you made.
It will be without me.
I will not be part of this charade.
It always was so foolish.
It really doesn't matter.
Now that you know.
You are the pain.
Wasting time, placing blame.
I want to believe,
Anyone can change.
but I don't know,
I want to believe
Anyone can change,
You don't care at all.
This is all foolish
You living in a different world,
The lies and privilege.
You forgot what it means,
To be human after all.
You have no compassion
You never ask what happened
So now that you know,
This is the trade off,
Trading money for our pain.
I want to believe.
Anyone can change .
but I don't know,
I want to believe.
Anyone can change,
You don't care at all.

He's Gone Insane
He's so strange
I don't understand when he
stops by for no reason at all
He's so strange
He runs away into the night
but it's all right he is just strange
Chorus
He's gone insane
He's thrown it all away
So he can go insane with me
He's gone insane
He says he wants to stay
So he can go insane with me.
He's so strange
Light is coming from his eyes
He says he fall in love today
He's so strange
He smiles for no reason
When he looks my way
Chorus

Can I Leave Now

He has raven hair
Has dark eyes
into depths I stare
I know they you
Lose your soul
In another life I fear.
There will be no rescue
Been to and brave
All my dreams are over now
With every day
It was too late.
Can I ask you?
Can I just leave now?
Cause the wind is blowing
and the fire is going out.
Can I ask you?
Can I just leave now?
I've done everything
you've asked of me.
and watched it all burn down.
Are you happy dear?
Alone in your despair?
Or have you found peace at last,
Without me ever being there.
I hope that you will get the chance,
To grow old and frail
and time will be a friend to you,
and sleep right through your death.
Can I ask you?
Can I just leave now?
Cause the wind is blowing
and the fire is going out.

My Favorite Star

You, you ask yourself
What was that you also felt?
You have come so far,
To be who you are
Your are my favorite star
Just like it was yesterday
It was almost a decade ago
You were like electricity
scaring me to death
I couldn't catch my breath
Chorus:
For several minutes there
I was floating on your air
Time just stopped and I
Have never been so scared
You, stared back at me
I almost fell down right there on the floor
Never felt this way before
I had to run away,
I didn't know what to say
Why? did I even go
It would of been so much better
If I'd never known
Why does it still bother me?
Because of my fears
I'm heard but never seen
For several minutes there
I was floating on your air
And time just stopped and I
Have never been so scared

What do we have left now
Tell me what do you expect?
This is how it was for others
Gone from a world that soon forgets
So all you see is the stones beauty
Growing flowers from my head
Chorus:
And you will never be alone.
watching you this time.
And you will never be alone.
stranded in the dark night.
you will never be alone.
this one thing I will it get right.
I am a statue made of stone.
Falling headstones for the rest.
Please leave me your plastic roses.
Growing from my head.
Chorus
I am the bones of your ancestors
Lying right beneath your feet
Being part of all humanity
Never really meant a thing.
