Try My Hand

Try My Hand
-----------------
(Verse 1)
Somewhere
In a broken down house of despair
The silence cries
There's no one there

(Chorus)
Try my hand
It might fit like a glove
We could fall in love
Feel it's warm touch
We may rise above
Try my hand

(Verse 2)
Sometimes
In a beaten down town on hard times
The silence cries
Where nothing shines

(Chorus)
Try my hand
It might fit like a glove
We could fall in love
Feel it's warm touch
We may rise above
Try my hand

(Bridge)
I have nothing
Nothing but time
Time by myself
Self absorbed
Absorbed by this fear
Fear of being alone

(Chorus)
Try my hand
It might fit like a glove
We could fall in love
Feel it's warm touch
We may rise above
Try my hand

Numb

Numb
---------
(Verse 1)
Baby, baby, baby, Baby
Let's not talk, let's not speak
Just loosen up
Let your body go weak

(Chorus)
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Sometimes it pays to be so numb, la, la, la, la
I don't want to think right now, oh no
My mind needs to just go blank, oh yeah yeah
Just close my mouth and go mum, nah, nah, nah, nah

(Verse 2)
Honey, honey, honey, Honey
Just hold on, just go still
Let it all go
Just abandon your will, yeah

(Chorus)
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Sometimes it pays to be so numb, la, la, la, la
I don't want to think right now, oh no
My mind needs to just go blank, oh yeah yeah
Just close my mouth and go mum, nah, nah, nah, nah

(Bridge)
We've got to do this, sugar
Relax for the sake of our sanity
We need to just rest some, sweetheart
Take your cares and hand them over to me

(Chorus)
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Sometimes it pays to be so numb, la, la, la, la
I don't want to think right now, oh no
My mind needs to just go blank, oh yeah yeah
Just close my mouth and go mum, nah, nah, nah, nah

Our Day

Our Day
--------------
(Verse 1)
In this end
All rage releases
While I ask myself how it all built up to start with
In this end
The fallen pieces
Realize that it wasn't too bad to start with

(Chorus)
The silence I hear 
As life's slipping away
The moment I have feared 
This is our day
This is our day

(Verse 2)
It's too late 
To turn back now
To turn this tragedy of time around again
It's too late
Death is on the prowl
Everything and nothing switches around again

(Chorus)
The silence I hear 
As life's slipping away
The moment I have feared 
This is our day
This is our day

(Bridge)
I've put you off for so long
Caught up to me I see
If I don't have a choice
Guess I'll just fade into the sea

(Chorus)
The silence I hear 
As life's slipping away
The moment I have feared 
This is our day
This is our day

Weekends Only

Weekends Only
-------------------
(Chorus)
Two days a week you can see me
The other five I have to be greedy
I'll be your something to play with
You'll be someone I don't miss

(Verse 1)
Tell your friends what you want to
I don't care cause I'm not that cool
But if that's what you're into
Who am I to tell you not to?
Give me a call on Monday
I'll say I'm busy till Friday
Saturday I might tell you yes
But the week's not over yet

(Chorus)
Two days a week you can see me
The other five I have to be greedy
I'll be your something to play with
You'll be someone I don't miss

(Verse 2)
Tell your mom what you need to
Don't mind me cause I'm just a fool
But if lying to yourself is what you're into
Who am I to say not to?
Message me all yesterday
I'm way too busy all day tomorrow
The next day I might just say maybe
But it's not the weekend yet

(Chorus)
Two days a week you can see me
The other five I have to be greedy
I'll be your something to play with
You'll be someone I don't miss

Faith In You

Faith in You
---------------
(Verse 1)
I'm obsessed
I'm not going to lie
But I'd rather let it free
Than keep it locked inside
I want you to know
I want to show
There's more to this life
Than what is shiny and sold

(Chorus)
Yeah, just like the sun shines
I put my faith in you
Knowing you'll be mine
When the day is through

(Verse 2)
I can't function
When you waltz inside this room
I start talking in circles
And hope you don't assume
Let me just say
You need to know
There's more to this life
Than what's glitter and gold

(Chorus)
Yeah, just like the sun shines
I put my faith in you
Knowing you'll be mine
When the day is through

All This Greed

All This Greed
------------------
(Verse 1)
Oh, I want it all
I want diamond rings, shiny stones, and things
I got a hole in the pocket and money's falling all over the floor
Oh, I want it all
I'm so bloody rich with gold it stings
I got a car so fast it almost takes off and soars
Oh, I want it all
All of it

(Chorus)
All this greed
Builds up in me
And I can't tell it no
It consumes me
I'll never tell it no

(Verse 2)
Oh, I want it all
I want million dollar homes, stones, and things
I spend cash all over the town and then go home and spend more
Oh, I want it all
I'm so filthy rich with green it stings
I got a woman each day of the week plus a dozen whores
Oh, I want it all
All of it

(Chorus)
All this greed
Builds up in me
And I can't tell it no
It consumes me
I'll never tell it no

(Chorus)
All this greed
Builds up in me
And I can't tell it no
It consumes me
I'll never tell it no

Bye

Bye
-------
(Verse 1)
She calls me complicated
That's the understatement of the year
She says I'm egotistical
I didn't seem to hear
She pretends she didn't notice sooner
I made it so clear
She'll make believe that I care
The door's right there

(Chorus)
Try? Sha-la-la-la-la, why?
Cry? Oh no no no no, bye
Try? Sha-la-la-la-la, why?
Cry? Oh no no no no, bye

(Verse 2)
She says I have changed
I prefer evolved
She tells her friends I'm vain
That's a mystery I've yet to solve
She acts so damn surprised
I want it all
She's sure to play the victim
I never said I'd call

(Chorus)
Try? Sha-la-la-la-la, why?
Cry? Oh no no no no, bye
Try? Sha-la-la-la-la, why?
Cry? Oh no no no no, bye

(Bridge)
Darling
What were you thinking?
Sweetheart
What was I drinking?

(Chorus)
Try? Sha-la-la-la-la, why?
Cry? Oh no no no no, bye
Try? Sha-la-la-la-la, why?
Cry? Oh no no no no, bye
