To the eye,
I’m pretty good for you
I’m glad you don’t know I’m a liar
I will keep my secrets from you
Hoping you’ll wash them away

Cause when the curtain falls
I wonder if you can take it, take it

Only you can find the ball beneath the shell
Only you can see behind the wall that I built too well
Only you can figure me out, I fool everyone else
Maybe you’ll save me from myself
Maybe you’ll save me from myself

When I dream
You’re always high above me
And miles away
So it seems like you’ll never really love me
But I know somehow you do

I would let you in
To see the mess I’ve been

Only you can find the ball beneath the shell
Only you can see behind the wall that I built too well
Only you can figure me out, when I fool everyone else
Maybe you’ll save me from myself
Maybe you’ll save me from myself

Don’t I smile enough?
Don’t I hide the ugly?
I finally feel ok
When I think too much
You can just ignore me
Let’s pretend that my heart can be good
And I pray everyday, everyday

I wish that I knew then
What I know right now
‘Cause when I drove out I didn’t think
It would be our last goodbye
And if I had more time with him
I know what we would talk about
It’s a scene that keeps repeating over in my mind
So don’t try to teach me anything
‘Cause time is a circle spiraling out of our hands

On any given day the world can change amazingly
On any given day we’re face to face with sadness, hope and love
We’ll have what we make of it, but we won’t have forever
On any given day the world can change…

I took a walk through town
Ended up by a highway
Look miles up and down for anything
To ease this ache inside
I’d stick my thumb straight on
If I didn’t have my family
It’s funny how the things
You love and things you dream collide
So don’t let go for anything
‘Cause I don’t feel like chancing it tonight

On any given day the world can change amazingly
On any given day we’re face to face with sadness, hope and love
We’ll have what we make of it, but we won’t have forever
On any given day the world can change

Amazing how the world can change
Each second you’re alive
But you’re the one that keeps me sane
You make everything fine

Covered under stacked up on lies
To cover hurt
That no one could see through

You played it down
Waiting for her last day to come
So you can breathe again

Oh Ashley, tell me

Have you been lost, have you been jaded
All you loved and all you hated
It’s all on you now
Suddenly won, suddenly golden
To a world that you were solding
Torn in two, now it’s all on you

She lost her smile in the water
But remained the perfect daughter
And you said she never let you down

Have you been lost, have you been jaded
All you loved and all you hated
It’s all on you now
Suddenly won, suddenly golden
To a world that you were solding
Torn in two, now it’s all on you

Did you get to say goodbye
Did she show you how to lie
The fragile girl she left behind
Oh Ashley, don’t lie to me
Oh Ashley

Have you been lost, have you been jaded
All you loved and all you hated
It’s all on you now
Suddenly won, suddenly golden
To a world that you were solding
Torn in two, now it’s all on you
Now it’s all on you

I’m still fighting for you
I probably will till the day I die
Excuses are choking me
Outside voices provoking me
And if you’re stranded
And stand there or do nothing at all
You made land on two feet or you may fall
I look at you with delight
I’m crying and screaming as you pass on by

You can walk in the shoes that you taught me to dye
You can make my mistakes no matter what you try
I’ll blame you every time I’m…

Haunted and followed
In spite of myself you’re on my mind
I shake loose but you won’t go
And I’m grateful till the day I die

You snake who wrapped the sane
Who bought into sweet old you
You think that I lost out
But guess what I might fool you too
You can walk in the shoes that you taught me to dye
You can make mistakes no matter what you try
I’ll blame you every time I’m…

Haunted and followed
In spite of myself you’re on my mind
I shake loose but you won’t go
And I’m grateful till the day I die

Could you have been any more impossible to be around?
Could you have tried any harder to lift me up
While you held me down?
And all those times that I pushed you away
I pay for it every day

I’m haunted and followed
In spite of myself you’re on my mind
I shake loose, but you won’t go
And I’m grateful till the day I die

Will I ever be more than a burden
More than body in your way
And will I ever be less of a princess
Your nagging excess in your way

Those delusions and lies
Aren’t all in my mind

You can leave me alone
You can forget me the moment I’m gone
You can go on like before
But you can’t call me crazy anymore

Will you ever give more than I ask for
More than I dream of in my head
So just quit judging me with those fierce eyes
Sharp looking disguise that I dread

And you blow off my doubts
But I’ve figured you out

You can leave me alone
You can forget me the moment I’m gone
You can go on like before
But you can’t call me crazy anymore

What’s it like to have all that you choose
And what’s it like to want nothing more
And I could stare forever but ties should sever
I’m almost over you

You can leave me alone
You can forget me the moment I’m gone
You can go on like before
But you can’t call me crazy anymore
