this is all there is

woke up this morning, found my friends
though i thought i'd lost them
they were all there with me
everyone as far as i could see
all those people talked about
was their worry and their doubt
though i tried to comfort them
no one heard a single thing
is anybody here scared to death?
this is all there is and we're missing it
is anybody here sick of this?
if this is all there is
then we're missing it
being scared to death
this is all there is
and we're missing it

you know you
03:35
|

|
if ever you need
someone to bleed
on the altar
as you mutter prayers
you can get ahold of me
if ever you see
sacrificing me
will save you
yeah, you know you
can get ahold of me
if ever you need
blood to appease
those who command you
can get ahold of me

standing here
03:26
|
|||
|
said "i can't hang on for long
if there ain't nothing in my arms"
as i see what you got there
i wonder why we are
standing here
pretending we're alright
standing here
pretending we're doing fine
there is nothing there
there's nothing
so you look to me and say
"can we just go home?"
i step back from you and say
"why not go on?"
standing here
pretending we're doing fine
standing here
pretending we're alright

you ain't no more
03:19
|
|||
|
in the ashtray i see
there's nothing i need
i ain't already had
no, things ain't that bad
as i lie on the floor
i see you ain't there no more
where you were before
you ain't no more
looking up from the floor
i see there's no more
for me i ain't already had
yeah, things ain't that bad

beyond the door
03:37
|
|||
|
was a nice place i left
but i heard voices at the door calling me home
couldn't remain anymore beyond the door
where i could never know what lie beyond
then two hands lifted me into the light
and then they lowered me into two loving arms
where no one did me harm till they set me free
but i ain't anymore free here then i was there
just free to stay or go or do nothing at all
but sit here on the earth upon this piece of dirt
saying why didn't i stay?
in the nice place
i left

upon my knees
03:04
|
|||
|
you were bending over me
naked in the moonlight
with one hand upon my knees
while with the other you
tried so hard to get me
ready for you
but i wasn't ready for you
cuz i'd been drinking
on the xanax that I'd taken
earlier to get me ready for you
and now there you were
bending over moaning
"I want you so bad"
|
||||
7. |
it ain't ok
03:31
|
|||
|
and i'm speaking with my father on the phone
and i feel something echo in my bones
as he says "it'll be ok in the end
and please remember til then, don't get excited"
now as i look down into your eyes
i smile to myself as i realize
it ain't ok but it ain't the end
and i know we'll be alright til then
I don't get excited

when it leaves
03:36
|
|||
|
when you see something you want
whatta you do
do you let it haunt
you
and when it looks your way
how do you act
whatta you say
do you play it cool
and when it leaves
how does it feel
do you feel empty
while you're trying to feel
whole
do you wanna be whole

b4 u get bored
03:27
|
|||
|
where you been so long
lost in the place you're trying to escape
where you been so long
where will you be
when you make your escape
where will you be
how long will it take
before you get bored trying to escape...

about what i'm missing
04:49
|
|||
|
my eye is ticking
as i speak with myself
about what i'm missing
ain't nobody else
can tell me
what i am missing
i'm reminiscing
about those days
you were with me
in a daze
i remember
how hard i tried
to hide
now though i forget
what i just said
i don't regret
any of it
cuz now i know
there ain't nothing i hold i can own
