Demos IV

1.
Is the prize worth all this pain? It's hard to stay dry when you're standing in the rain But maybe I like to soak Sometimes I want to see if I can still float, if I could do it alone Sometimes it feels like a punch in the face, I speak when I've got nothing to say Sometimes I think I'm wrong until I realize I'm right, I want to win but it's just not worth the fight I gave up on umbrellas a long time ago I don't want to look up and believe I'm spread thin, I'm severed, I'm stretched out, I'm scattered I'm the hail that destroys and shatters I don't want to look up and believe, I want to know Is the prize worth all this pain? It's hard when you have everything to lose and nothing to gain
2.
Am I defective? I must be missing parts I didn't realize there was so much assembly required There's no manual and no batteries No technical support and no warranties Just leave me on the shelf, behind whatever's left Just call me in, I need replacing Because no one wants a toy that's missing pieces Give me to the dog, the one that no one loves Put me in the store, the one that everyone mugs Put me in the yard, the one that always rains Leave me in the sun, so I can melt under the rays
3.
Feels like I popped a blood vessel in my head I feel like I don't wanna get out of this bed its been one of those days this whole week I've been having trouble speaking my mind to you feels like my heart's attacking I'm stroking out and there's nothing I can do There's a weight on my shoulders that I can't bear My head's gonna roll right off and I don't care seems just like yesterday I was flying high now I'm crashing and burning right in front of your eyes you're watching the flames engulf me even though I feel so far away from you When it comes to disappointing me I've already expected that from you so why the hell do I feel this way Your silence makes for good poetry and I'm listening intently to all the things that you don't have to say Feels like I wanna throw up all my insides all in slow motion on your frustrating roller coaster ride My bones feel like ripping through my skin and the night's only getting longer as we begin I'm gonna shove my heart into a bottle light it up and throw the damn thing your way

Sometimes, we share a heart Sometimes, we are worlds apart But I know, just when you leave As soon as you take your eyes of me GONE - I ask you like a broken record GONE - But I'll never know what's wrong Like a blaring siren on repeat I'll wait until you get back because I know that you need me Our love, is built on tension Our love, it moves in slow motion But sometimes, our love, derails In a tragic crash, to save yourself GONE - I ask you like a broken record GONE - But I'll never know what's wrong Like a blaring siren on repeat I'll wait until you get back because I know that you need me If I don't say something stupid, we won't say anything at all I know that it's not me, but sometimes I wish it was all my fault At least then I'd know who to blame Maybe then I could do something But until then I'll be your look out Because up ahead, I see brighter days
