Better Off Alone?

You’re all alone / Off in your world so cold
You’re lying to yourself when you say
You’re the only one who knows a thing at all
You can’t do it all yourself
You think you’re better off alone / No one can help you?
What you don’t see: / Together we could have it all
So take my hand; we both will rise
You’re wound so tightly / Around control, won't let go
Your winter never blooms into spring
When you don't trust a single soul / Behind your icy wall
You can't do it all yourself
You think you’re better off alone / No one can help you?
What you don’t see: / Together we could have it all
So take my hand; we both will rise
We'll fly
Over and over you push me away
You think you're better off alone?

Asylum

Don’t fear what they say; don’t do what they do
Don’t follow their way; the truth lies in you
You’ll bring it to light, and when that day comes
You’ll know you were right; you’ll find asylum
One voice through the noise
Is the only one that speaks the truth today
One small light through the dark
Is the only hope left in the world today
And when your resolve is starting to fade
It’s tempting to weave the web they have made
But never give in to be deaf, to be dumb
Know they’ll never win; you’ll find asylum
Burn bright, even through the night
You never know who’s guided by your light
Burn bright tonight. I need your light!
When they tell you that you’re insane
Don’t believe them; they’re the ones to blame
When they won’t hear a word you say
Keep speaking truth ‘cause they will hear one day
When they cast you out in the night,
Blind them with your light!

You walk so godly upon the Earth / You're sure you know it all
You earned your crown by right of birth / You're Pride before the Fall
My ugliness, my emptiness / Of no concern to you
My happiness, my gratefulness / So far away from you
Go burn your bridges far and wide / Go take down every foe
Don't see me dying on the other side / Or hear my notes of woe
Would you just turn your back on me?
I'm concerned with decency / I'm more concerned with love
I care less for your fallacies / Or mythos from above
I'd take a thousand poisoned shots / Before I’d war with you
You're too concerned with what I think / Instead of what you do
Your arrogance, your greediness / Of no concern to me
Your opulence, entitlement / So far away from me
Would you just turn your back on me?

No More (album version)

Trust: The creature lying dead in the space between you and...
Me: The one you now despise--so that's how it's going to be?
You don't see me? You don't read me?
You don’t need me. No more.
You don't fear me? You don't hear me?
You don't want me. No more.
"Trust me," you said.
Pride: The sin you hold above my head while you're wishing me...
Dead: The way I'd feel inside if I believed
Truth: The virtue you distort while filling yourself full of...
Hate and anger you exude to those who oppose

You think you got away again
Done the wrong, not paid for the sin
But the guilt your mind denies
I can see it in your eyes
It's no wonder you can't sleep / With what you dream
Paralyzed by your fear / You can't scream
And now nothing’s as it seems
So persistent in entitlement
Yet remorseless for the blood you've spent
Now you're preying on the innocents' fear
But their wounds don't disappear
Just 'cause you close your eyes
Doesn't mean you can hide
You try to stuff it down / it just comes back around
You can't just close your eyes
and you can never hide
You try to stuff it down
It just comes back around

We've got ourselves a situation
Where with every word you say
You're comin' closer to blowing me away
So why don't you shut your mouth before you
Set me off, unleash the beast inside of me
I feel the heat comin' on / I'm comin' undone
And all reason is gone / It's comin' on strong
And I know it won't be long / Before all my sanity's gone
You've got yourself a reputation
And with every claim you stake
You’re comin' closer to more than I can take
So why don't you back it up with action
'Cause I'm not the weak and whiny bitch
you bargained for... Oh, no, no
It's just a game you play?
Well, put up or get out of my way
I don't have time today
It’s all gone

Forget me / Act like you never met me
Still I know you're just a raging fraud
There's nothing that I owe you / And I won't extol you
When you act like you're some kind of god
(’cause you don't own me)
You step on me, look down on me / But I burn
You take from me, take it all out on me / Still I burn
Not what you wanted to hear? You'd build a fortress on my fear
If I don't take a stand / While I know I still can
To you I'm just a number / So I try to encumber
All your selfish plots to rob me blind / You're bluffing
When you tell me I am nothing
‘Cause I know if I seek, I'll surely find
Take me down, you better take me all the way
I love the way you think you’ve put out my flame
I love the way you think we’re all the same
Oh, by the way, you haven’t won the game
Take me down, you’ll never take me all the way

It's not your eyes, it's your lies that give you away
So what's your tune? I'm immune to all your sh*t today
Don't gimme your lines this time 'cause I'm not listening
Don't try to be sly; I won't hear a thing
So tell me...
You don't have to lie / So tell me
Don't try to deny / Just tell me
Ooo, you can save the speech and tell me
Oh, yeah, just tell me / Tell me the truth
You're blowing smoke; it's a joke for you to talk like this
'Cause now your point's out of joint and everything's amiss
Don't try to disguise your lies; it''ll get you nowhere
It's only insulting; I know you don't care
