I'm walking down a quiet hall And I'm the only one who's standing tall And as I walk it may get longer But what doesn't kill me makes me stronger So I'm told So I'm told And I'm also told that I won't get old And I'm also told that bread won't mold And I'm also told that winters won't get cold And I already know that my soul has been sold I'm looking 'round to find a way out While everyone walks the same hopeless route I just wanna show 'em some love But they just don't care enough I gotta show these people there's more than this And it's a sad sad thing that they got nothing to miss I'm gonna show these people that wrong can be right I'm gonna take 'em out of darkness and show 'em the light Show 'em the light I'm gonna punch one great big hole in the wall I'm gonna punch one great big hole in the wall I'm gonna punch one great big hole in the wall Until it all comes crashing down Now I'm walking in an angry hall And everybody's standing tall And as we walk it may get longer But what doesn't kill makes us stronger So we know So we know And we also know that we will get old And we also know that bread will mold And we also know that winters will get cold And we've always known that our souls have been sold So let's punch one great big hole in the wall Punch one great big hole in the wall So let's punch one great big hole in the wall Until it all comes crashing down So let's punch one great big hole in the wall Let's punch one great big hole in the wall Punch one great big hole in the wall Until it all comes crashing down

So this is how it feels, when everything goes right And I know it's goin well when I hate going to sleep at night I feel like I have to say what I couldn't understand before And knowing that this feeling's going it makes me shake to the core Because how could I ever get over this And how could you ever not be someone I'll miss Well after I leave you and this place You know I'm gonna be sad But knowing it goes on doesn't make me feel so bad There are scores of kids who will go and make the same mistakes, That we did But being young is not knowing especially this Because how could I ever get over this And how could you ever not be someone I'll miss So do as you've been taught and draw your sword And take a stab at the good we've been fighting for No more hiding behind capes however pleasant they may be We can go and set this world on fire, you and me Oh but how could I ever get over this And how could you ever not be someone I'll miss I'm never going to get over this And you'll always be someone that I'll miss

The Novel 05:01
I've been thinking about this for some time Now sit down and let me tell you about this novel of mine Well on the cover there'll be a picture of me And I'll be doing something cool and I'll look so damn happy Flip the page and that's where you'll see That this book is dedicated to all the things I'm gonna be Well chapter one comes in with a bang Our hero is strong and free of distress Our hero's the one that will clean up this whole mess Well the plot develops and time passes by Our hero's not so strong, he's now not such a brave guy Because he was hit hard by life and he was knocked out by love He tried to get back but he had no faith up above So a darkness starts to take over and it fits like a glove Pressing on, he finds faithful friends that will be there for him when his mind breaks and bends And with their help he finds what he loves to do And in the process finds someone that loves him too And towards the end he doesn't know what to do Because everything difficult in his life has finally stopped But he was hit hard by life and he was knocked out by love He tried to get back but he had no faith up above And a darkness starts to take over and it fit like a glove But he was hit hard by life and he was knocked out by love He tried to get back but he had no faith up above So a darkness starts to take over and it fits like a glove But as it turns out not many people liked my story In fact they chewed it up and spit it out in all of its glory So I took my dumb book and I ripped out the pages I burnt them to ash and let them drift through the ages None of it was definite but now its written in stone That my true to life story will never, never be known Because he was hit hard by life and he was knocked out by love He tried to get back but he had no faith up above And a darkness starts to take over and it fits like a glove Because he was hit hard by life and he was knocked out by love He tried to get back but he had no faith up above So a darkness started to take over and it fits like a glove And far down the road when people try to read my novel They'll see the scars I made and how they'll never mend Because all they'll see is the end.

Split 04:11
He's quick to love But he's quicker to hate He always goes When he needs to wait He cannot slow And he does not know how to say I'm sorry She's quick to hurt And she's quicker to cry And those other guys Gave her plenty of reasons why She wants to go But she does not know how to say Goodbye And they fade away And they fade away And they fade away 'Til they cause a split She raised her voice But it wasn't her choice He raised his fist It was a feeling she didn't miss There's gonna be a hole where she used to be And he won't sleep right for weeks And they fade away And they fade away And they fade away 'Til they cause a split 'Til they cause a split It was his fault for being so cruel And he saw in the end that he was the fool By the time he learned to apologize She was gone with some other guy Oh Oh And they caused a split Ooooh

It started with a kiss It started with a kiss and then a see you later And then I saw her later and well I kinda hated her Now she talks to me all the time And I just can't seem to tell her that I don't have the time You see, not too long ago no girl knew my name And now when I'm around I can't keep them tame And it's not like I wanted this excess fame Because I'm really fucking tired of this stupid teenage love game It went on with a slap And then another slap And then plenty more until I said holy crap And I was stuck, being tossed around Until I finally snapped, then I hit the ground I looked around and there was no one that cared I was so damn tired of always being scared You've only got one chance at this So blow out your candles and make a wish You can't care so much You just gotta let it go sometimes And life's just too short not to rush You just gotta let it go sometimes It started with a kiss And then she got pissed I dug myself a hole And there was no way out And it was caving in On top of me A stupid little kiss You can't care so much You just gotta let it go sometimes And life's just too short not to rush You just gotta let it go sometimes I was drunk, you were coy I was a hormone impulsed little boy I was everything but good to you And I made that mistake before the night was through I begged and I pleaded, I thought all I needed was you But that wasn't true You hate me for the sake of it And were both sick of each other's shit So why not just let it go Why not just let it go Oh why not just let it go Why not just let it go Oh why not just let it go Why not just let it go Why not just let it go You can't care so much You just gotta let it go sometimes And life's just too short not to rush You just gotta let it go sometimes It ended with a piss
