Cut and Run

you're not real
just the chaos that springs from a butterfly
you're a ghost that came from nothing and left with less
than even the lesson learned
and you still keep asking, as if nothing's ever happened
you keep trying
but you burned so bright that your light burned out so very soon
and you didn't have the courage to stay
and you didn't have the courage to say
and couldn't take the high road, so it ended on the low road of cheap cliches
when the going gets tough the weak break down and cut and run
fight or flight depends on the shiny new thing that comes along
you're so real
the people left behind will remember you
you're a storm
and you changed them all the way that you wanted to
now the road that you traveled is cleared of all it's meaning
cause looking back means nothing if you can't look forward
with head held high and your eyes wide open with piece of mind
and you've got to have the courage to stay
and you've got to have the courage to stay
and you've got to have the courage to say the words that hurt and then walk away
when the going gets tough the weak break down and cut and run
fight or flight depends on the shiny new thing that comes along
then you're not tied down to anything or anyone
cause giving up is easy... it's hard, yeah – it seems both right and wrong

SORRY
VS 1
eyes that look ahead but through
grabbing hands miss in the wind
a mind that feeds so endlessly
a greedy heart loses in the end
Pre
but actions won't amend
the body never heals
i play the scene in my head
look into your eyes and say...
CHS1
i'm sorry i hurt you
never wanted to lose you
i wish i could take it all back because I
hurt you
i'm sorry i hurt you
I only wish that I could take it all back
because I hurt you
i'm sorry i hurt you
V2
i can't can't blame you for leaving me
i would do the same
Pre2
it was there one minute and gone the next
hate the way time steals
i pretend you're happy when I find you
hold you close to me and say...
Chs2
i'm sorry i hurt you
never wanted to lose you
i wish i could take it all back because I
hurt you
i'm sorry i hurt you
I’m sorry that I can’t turn the clock back
CHS2b
if I could go back one day
i'd do it differently
time only travels one way
i only wish i could take it all back
Bridge
and after all when said and done
though I had lost what I had won
i didn't have to end it like that
it didn't have to end up like that
the end replays ten thousand ways
each one begins with choices made
i didn't have to treat you like that
you didn't have to feel like that
Chs3
End (call and answer)
It’s irreversible
It’s all impossible

vs1
you started this and now i'm moving mountains
you could stop this with an open heart
you keep pouring down the pain with vacant emotion
in between i count the moments with suffering
pre
demons dancing in my head
the monkeys rattle the cage
eros lays the bed of nails
with blankets made of rage
chs
why don't you leave me where you found me
i'm just a devil's toy for your idle hands
the hands that feel like cruelty
i'm just a ransom note for your demands
VS 2
the theater won't stop it's vicious reel
as i cry mercy from the scenes
the abrasions on my mind from scrubbing
not knowing what it all means
chs
why don't you leave me where you found me
i'm just a devil's toy for your idle hands
the hands that feel like cruelty
i'm just a ransom note for your demands
i'm just another fading memory
you can erase me from this moment
i'm just another emotional mouth to feed
and the static wire for your current
