sevendust - driven

(stop the man)
fom endin up with all the chips so he can?t
(promse him an only chance)
to have the freedom that?s been takin from me

(you ? can ? try ? to ? lift ? your ? head ? no)
you fucked up with me now live with the truth
find a reason to lie (try)

seems like it hasn?t been long ? I?ve given
(so much how could you hide)
you?re sick with all the guilt you?re never ? forgiven
(you try to wash it away ? wash it away)

(ask again) why all the dreams I had
are now left broken
(punished for a wounded past)
afraid to wake and find reality breathin
(why ? has ? life ? been ? taken ? from ? me)
I fucked up and now I live with the truth
with no reason to lie (I)

feel like it hasn?t been long ? I?m driven
(to keep myself alive)
you?re sick with all the guilty you?re never ? forgiven
(you?ll never wash it away ? wash it away)

(How can you live with yourself)

(chorus repeat)

sevendust - burn

(rescue me) from this mistake I?m in
Who knows the path I?ll land on
(i must be dreamin) in the end nothing but solitary moments
(comin down on me)

Wash away the colors of the shame that you gave to me
So I can see again, so I can live again
Wash away the colors of the shame that you gave to me
So I can see again, so I can live again
(wash it away, release me)

(never free) I don?t know what I want but I know
(i don?t want this) a sleep of content I?m here
Again and always (intent on believ?n)

Wash away the colors of the shame that you gave to me
So I can see again, so I can live again
I pray the day will come when you will see
What you took from me,
From where it all began, the way I used to be
Wash away the colors of the shame that you gave to me
So I can see again, so I can live again
I pray the day will come when you will see
What you took from me,
From where it all began, the way I used to be
(wash it away ? release me)

(i can?t take this anymore )

I lied to myself, remembering the things said
Things you said to me, no answer for help
Empty promises were all I heard, never meant to be
Destroy me, control me, don?t hold me, release me from your hands
Give me back the life you took and?

Wash away the colors of the shame that you gave to me
So I can see again, so I can live again
I pray the day will come when you will see
What you took from me,
From where it all began, the way I used to be
Wash away the colors of the shame that you gave to me
So I can see again, so I can live again
I pray the day will come when you will see
What you took from me,
From where it all began, the way I used to be

I often wonder how it came to this again
I often wonder why it had to end
I often wonder how it came to this again
I often wonder why it had to end
Forgive you just the same
I often wonder how it came to this again
Never meant to be
I often wonder why it had to end
Forgive you all the same
I often wonder how it came to this again
Never meant to be
I often wonder why it had to end
Because of what you took from me

sevendust - confessions

So why'd you take him out
Of our dream that kept me young and trusted
Singled out and dazed
What else can you do for me to keep me standing
Everyday's a new confession
Vulnerable, are we all?

Without faith we go on til it's over
The whole world doesn't always love you
But you never let that define you
Just have faith we'll go on
We'll get closer
To everyone who ever tried to hate you
Say goodbye
It was nice to know you

I've become so cynical
Tell me now can i hear the voice of reason?
You're so beautiful
What else can you do for me
To keep me grounded
Everyone's a new possession
Vulnerable?
Are we all?

Without faith we go on til it's over
The whole world doesn't always love you
But you never let that define you
Just have faith we'll go on
We'll get closer
To everyone who ever tried to hate you
Say goodbye
It was nice to know you
It was nice to know you
It was nice to know you
It was nice to know you

Without faith we go on til it's over
The whole world doesn't always love you
But you never let that define you
Just have faith we'll go on
We'll get closer
To everyone who ever tried to hate you
Say goodbye
It was nice to know you

Without faith we go on til it's over
The whole world doesn't always love you
But you never let that define you
We'll break down
Get back up
We'll get closer
To everyone who ever tried to hate you
Say goodbye
It was nice to know you
It was nice to know you

sevendust - enemy

Step up to me - Step up to me
You wanna be a big time player - it's not to be
Look at all the snide ass - actin like a wise ass
I'll fuck up your face and you'll never look back

[Chorus:]
So when you fall to the ground
And finally get back to reality
And no one at all is around
So tell me how does it feel to be the enemy?

Step up to me - Step up to me [x2]
Step up to me - Step up to me
You wanna be a big time player - it?s not to be

Look at your face - look at your name
It's funny you?re a loser with only yourself to blame
Cut your fucking hair now - scared of all the stare downs
You wanna be like me cause it's real
So you steal on your way to fame
Never gonna be - never gonna see
Your name in lights - you can always dream what ?cha could've been
Clean up my shit - you look like a dick
Step to unemployment - step

[Chorus x2]

Step! Step up to me ? step up
You?re the enemy!
[x2]

[CHORUS x2]

sevendust - xmas day

One step in the dark
Touch her hand just to see
If she's all alone again
Still she hasn't seen sun
But I promise you now when she wakes
There will be none
Don't know how she gets by
Sleeps with a phone on her chest
And a bottle that's totally dry
Forgets the day I was born
But if she saw me right now

She would hold me until we both die

I could be the one who would die to
feel you breathe

I could break into a million pieces
So just run as fast as you can for me
You mean everything

I can't deny her. I'll do whatever
To stop all the bleeding that makes
her world so red
Such a delicate one
She screams so loud that I run to
hide from the sound
And I could be the one who would die
to feel you breathe
But it's too far-gone
And this love must die

(Chorus repeat 4x)

sevendust - karma

I may have made some mistakes
That cost me more than my pride
But somewhere along the way
That part of me finally died
That part of me never tried
Some part of me still alive
Here in the bed that I made
Can't sleep cuz my conscience keeps me awake
Keeps me awake

Yeah, how bittersweet is Karma
Now you've done it you own it
Know that it's coming
Don't change for nothing
We all feel karma now

The clock never stops to breathe
The tears in the well
I cause help me see
Theres no better place to be
Than right where you are
Until you go through the fall
Go through it all

Yeah, how bittersweet is Karma
Now you've done it you own it
Know that it's coming
Don't change for nothing
We all feel karma

Yeah, how bittersweet is Karma
Now you've done it you own it
Know that it's coming
Don't change for nothing
We all feel karma now

Yeah my karma's here it seems
Always a step behind me

Yeah, how bittersweet is Karma
Now you've done it you own it
Know that it's coming
Don't change for nothing
We all feel karma now

Yeah ,how bittersweet is Karma
Now you've done it you own it
Know that it's coming
Don't change for nothing
We all feel karma
All feel karma now

sevendust - unraveling

I need an answer
Somewhere you understand
This feels so convincing
And a little outta hand
So tell me one thing
Who gave you all those scars
That took away your innocence
You push away with everything you are

I can't take this anymore
I'm tired of breaking
I'm tired of breaking

I want the world to see
You sold a broken dream
You were not there for me
I was Unraveling
All that we never knew
That could have been me and you
But you took everything
Now we're just here Unraveling

So here we are now
Break what's already broken
I guess I coulda seen this coming
If you'd been around
Lets tear the past wide open

I can't take this anymore
I'm tired of breaking
I'm tired of breaking

I want the world to see
You sold a broken dream
You were not there for me
I was Unraveling
All that we never knew
That could have been me and you
But you took everything
Now we're just here Unraveling

What have we become
The hopeless tonight and I think its over
We hope to find the truth still breathing
Can we survive the low

I want the world to see
You sold a broken dream
You were not there for me
I was Unraveling

I want the world to see
You sold a broken dream
You were not there for me
I was Unraveling
All that we never knew
That could have been me and you
But you took everything
Now we're just here Unraveling I need an answer
Somewhere you understand
This feels so convincing
And a little outta hand
So tell me one thing
Who gave you all those scars
That took away your innocence
You push away with everything you are

I can't take this anymore
I'm tired of breaking
I'm tired of breaking

I want the world to see
You sold a broken dream
You were not there for me
I was Unraveling
All that we never knew
That could have been me and you
But you took everything
Now we're just here Unraveling

So here we are now
Break what's already broken
I guess I coulda seen this coming
If you'd been around
Lets tear the past wide open

I can't take this anymore
I'm tired of breaking
I'm tired of breaking

I want the world to see
You sold a broken dream
You were not there for me
I was Unraveling
All that we never knew
That could have been me and you
But you took everything
Now we're just here Unraveling

What have we become
The hopeless tonight and I think its over
We hope to find the truth still breathing
Can we survive the low

I want the world to see
You sold a broken dream
You were not there for me
I was Unraveling

I want the world to see
You sold a broken dream
You were not there for me
I was Unraveling
All that we never knew
That could have been me and you
But you took everything
Now we're just here Unraveling

sevendust - praise

What did you expect?
Fools often sometimes forget,
Who really knows whats the truth?
Often dignified,
Have fun in changing the tide,
It feels like you already knew!

See past the light.
Oblivious to all of my cries,
No hope when I knew you could,

Save you,
I would never,
Deny you,
Even though your hate for me is strong.

sevendust - feed

I erased you
from my every waking memory
I replaced you
with a vision that you ? won?t see

pity is a four letter word
and so is quit
(and so is left but I?m)

right where you wanted me
feed from the inside
out of bitter sympathy
you want me wrong but I?m right

may I remind you
it doesn?t take much time to call
can I respect you
if a man was never there at all

pity is a four letter word
And so is quit
(and so is left but I?m)

CHORUS (Repeat)
I replaced you with a vision that you ? can?t see

(Right where you wanted me)
Feed me from the inside
(Out of bitter sympathy)
You want me wrong but I?m
(Chorus Repeat)

sevendust - here and now

Seeing somebody, somebody soon
I'm feeling tired
All torn up and nobody knew
I'm thinking someone needs to pray
Forgive me for the wrong i've done
But no one here's the same
No!

So far down
Can you tell me if i'm counted out
You know that now
You know that
In the end
That nothing is but here and now
You know that now
I'm here and now

Waking up to nobody home
I'm feeling tired
Sickened from my constant disease
Will someone have the guts to say
I'll never right the wrong i've done if
All you do is blame me

So far down
Can you tell me if i'm counted out
You know that now
You know that
In the end
That nothing is but here and now
You know that now
I'm here and now

Seeing somebody, somebody soon
I'm feeling tired
All torn up
But nobody knew
Are you

So far down
Can you tell me if i'm counted out
You know that now
You know that
In the end
There's nothing but here and now
You know that now
I'm here and now
Here and now
Here and now
You were not
Here and now
Here and now

sevendust - broken down

It takes time
To heal the wound I've made along the way
If I'm blind
Open my eyes 'cause I need to see again

If I can feel again
Will you tell me now
Or wait til I'm broken down again
Save me now
I'm broken

If I bleed
My lies won't fill the emptiness inside
I just need
For something real to open up my mind

Breaking down
I'm breaking down
Breaking down
I'm breaking down
It takes time

If I can feel again
Will you tell me now
Or wait til I'm broken down again
Save me now
I'm broken

If I can feel again
Will you tell me now
Or wait til I'm broken down again
Save me now
I'm broken

It takes time
Breaking down
I'm breaking down
If I can feel again

sevendust - face to face

Don't tell me now with a smile on your face
That you're lost...down and out
When there was nothing left in me

You can't stop fuckin' with my head
Stop fuckin' with my head
My silence you break
The smile that you fake (you fake)

[Chorus:]
There's not one thing that you can say to make it right
Unless you say "I'm leavin"
And if you're not...then please tell me why
Please tell me why you can't

Save face
Say it to my face

Can I take all the filth in your head
All the words that you said (that you said)
And throw it away (throw it out)

You can't stop fuckin' with my head
Stop fuckin' with my head
My silence you break
The smile that you take away

[Chorus:]
There's not one thing that you can say to make it right
Unless you say "I'm leavin"
And if you're not...then please tell me why
Please tell me why you can't

That shit you're talkin' don't mean nothing to me anymore
Limp dick...you fuck stick...let's settle the score
Run and hide you know I'll find you anywhere
Motherfucker...two faced prick with hell to pay
What's real is real...it's time to step up to the plate again
Swing batter-batter, swing batter-batter, swing...
What's real is real...it's time to step up to the plate again
Swing batter-batter...fucked me for the last time!

Just take a swing...
C'mon...you should've taken that swing...
Just take your swing...

[Chorus:]
There's not one thing that you can say to make it right
Unless you say "I'm leavin"
And if you're not...then please tell me why
Please tell me why you can't

Swing...just take your swing...fuck you!

Just take your swing...
You can't stop fuckin' with my head
Stop fuckin' with my head

sevendust - skeleton song

[Verse 1]
I'll stay right here with all these familiar faces
And shut-out everyone else from the world we created
Instead of becoming the sick and twisted
I'll lose myself in a song again

[CHORUS:]
And There's nothing wrong
In being far from right
Another skeleton song
Stuck in my head all night
And there's something wrong
When everything goes right
Another skeleton song
Will save my life tonight

[Verse 2:]
Was it that hard - to open the door to faith
When everyone feels the same
A different face but on the same page
And I don't need something - that hurts more than nothing
So I lose myself in a song again

[CHORUS:]
And There's nothing wrong
In being far from right
Another skeleton song
Stuck in my head all night
And there's something wrong
When everything goes right
Another skeleton song
Will save my life tonight

[Bridge:]
So I try my best to see
How you can relate to so much grief
Never stop forgetting why you came to be here
Everybody seems to be- crying themselves to sleep
Wake up for me and find another place to go

[CHORUS:]
And There's nothing wrong
In being far from right
Another skeleton song
Stuck in my head all night
And there's something wrong
When everything goes right
Another skeleton song
Will save my life tonight

[repeat chorus till fade]
