Mentor 03:17
Tell me what I want Scream at me for all the wrong ive done tell me what I cant see I cant go back to the old me Hold me in your arms I tried so hard but Ive failed you All of these years, the time ive wasted I wish I could go back But that’s all in the past Sorry all I wanted Was to be the reason you feel joy now Touch what I can reach I cant go back till you find me Hold me in your arms I tried so hard but Ive failed you All of these years, the time ive wasted I wish I could go back But that’s all in the past And I want you to know I still try All ive become is still alive inside And have no regrets and I don’t feel ashamed Cause without you here it wont be the same Hold me in your arms I tried so hard but Ive failed you All of these years, the time ive wasted I wish I could go back But that’s all in the past

Turn Away 04:45
Do you feel like you lost it all Would you believe me if I told you it would be ok Not this time Maybe one day But probably never Sometimes I wish you could feel When everything’s gone astray Someday Il see me through the eyes Of disarray But not this time I hope you turn away Does it seem like, you’re about to fall You never believe them when they tell you it will be okay But not this time Maybe one day Things will get better Sometimes I wish you could feel When everythings gone astray Someday il see me through the eyes Of disarray But not this time (not this time) Not this time (not this time) I hope you turn away As you turn to me with balled fists, Tears in your eyes. You say, “I don’t think il make it through til morning” But after the snow stops falling and we watch the sun ignite the skyline like a fireworks show I turn to you, and beg for you to hold on, Withstand another night in this endless sea of shit Don’t give up, Dry your eyes And never turn away Sometimes I wish you could feel When everythings gone astray Someday il see me through the eyes Of disarray But not this time (not this time) Not this time (not this time) I hope you turn away

When I wake up its 2PM I cant believe I slept in again Im out of coffee and I need some more so i Take a trip to the corner store And As im walking I think to myself What would it be like to be somebody else For an hour maybe even a day Hey you, what do you say Wanna trade? For a while Theres no need for fakeing smiles Wanna go on a cruise? You’ve got something to gain You got nothing to loose so Have a drink on me Lets make a toast to lives we lead oh Have a drink on me No we never ever want to leave And we sing and we play And we party half the day away And we laugh and we cry And we never have to say goodnight Look at my watch And its 4 o clock Pick up my phone call the friends ive got Tell them meet me here at 5 Bring the car il be too drunk to drive When they get here il be at the door Just like every other weekend before We’ll be gone for the rest of the day Hey you what do you say Wanna go? For a ride No you don’t need an alibi Wanna go on a cruise? You’ve got something to gain You got nothing to loose so Have a drink on me Lets make a toast to lives we lead oh Have a drink on me No we never ever want to leave And we sing and we play And we party half the day away And we laugh and we cry And we never have to say goodnight
