It was exactly 2:00 AM...
You had lost your cool
Only this time, was the last time
The little water left had finally boiled over
And now there's nothing left inside
***, ****, Crack, ******... Acid... Over Dosing...
Getting high, mentally exploding couldn't even do it anymore
And through your eyes, I guess I looked like:

Like a monster in your space show
Crushing the man in the moon, your best friend
Droughts would come into your life
Nobody helping, people running out of your heart
You caught easy like a lighter
Followed by a monsoon of angry tears and heavy depression
You sank to the bottom like a boulder
Nothing could stop these seasons
As I look back, you were incurable, made to self-destruct

I turned out to be the destroyer
Smashing ambitions and to be honest babe,
Your future darkened because of YOU, not me.
Yeah, I'm sorry I had to say goodbye, we all are...
It didn't help that I couldn't love you how you wanted me to.
A part of me went with you once you left Earth
And for some reason, I don't want it back.
Babe, Suicide Street has a cross on the side of the road in front of the old Oak.
Scratched into the little white wooden cross, is your name: Vail Hawkenson
Suicide Street just grew a little darker.
Now there's thunder booming, lightning cracks.
You're home now.

The flames making a forest
I got trapped in all the hazy heat
Everything that mattered to me caught in the inferno
My body said to fight
My mind said it was pointless to try.

I lay there
All the safety nets came toppling down on me
Helpless, abandoned, trash, stranded is what I thought I was
Hell, mayhem, and isolation had taken the controls
The terrorists I had been brought up to fear and hate
Had destroyed my life.

They slammed right into my World Trade Centers
My Hope and Fate had jumped off the sides with my Happiness
While  my strength burned inside my heart
Everything ruined to embers and ashes
Now today, I am finally here, I've survived Hell.

I've gotten the rubble pull off me
And I'm done falling
'Cause I've made it to the ground floor
I can see the the smoke clearing, blue skies flooding in
Staggering up, my battle scars are proof
That I made it through Hell and back.
My terrorists are gone, sinking to the ocean floor with anchors of passion
My passion that's sinking, will be taking me to the top.

What's gonna happen when all that's left of you is an empty chair?
The sun won't be as bright.
There will be a shade over my world.

What's gonna happen when the messages stop popping  up in my Skype account?
The Hope will start to sink that you had still remembered me.
There's nothing to believe in anymore.

What am I searching for?
I've been shaken down to my core
Nothing's out of place
Everything belongs where it is, in its case
I just never had it
So now in the dark, I take a lantern that I've lit
To go looking for it, wandering as I go
Where it is, who it's with I don't know
Slipping slowly down the drain
I'm starting to feel less and less of this pain
As I make my way alone on this path
I finally begun to figure out the math
I have half of my heart
And I know now, that I can't find it in a shopping cart
I may have to take the trip a million times more after this
But maybe, I'll meet a girl and I will know, in just one kiss
And the lantern will no longer be lit every night
Because I have a love that leads the way as she hols me tight
So in the dead of winter
If she's away for the night, I'm sure going to miss her
But she will always be in my heart
And I will love her forever and always, even if we are apart
Sleeping through the darkness and fears
For in my dreams, all of the nightmares, she clears
And I am safe in her arms
Don't care if we're in the city or out in the country on a farm
As long as I have her I am complete
No one is better then her, so no need to compete
For we were meant to be all smiles and laughs
Put bubble beards on one another in our baths
However long this journey turns out to be
I will find the girl, with her perfect heart and I with the perfect key

Can you really tell?
Which helping hands are true?,
and which are imposters
Which ones will take your hand when you slip,
and not let go?
Or which ones will be held out but will push you down and pull out of the way when you fall?
Can you really tell?

They're all around,
the fakes and the friends.
The ones who laugh behind you, but smile when you spin around
Or the ones who defend your back and hug you when you turn around
Or how about the ones who laugh at you all the time?
They're the ones to stay.
Can you really tell?

Cause I can tell,
My sister's the real deal.

(I'll always be there to protect you.)

-Tasman

I will always hear you calling,
Your pleas impossible to miss-
A cry from the dark
A shadow breaking heart.

Well, it's time you shattered your shackles
Broke free from your bonds.
I'll tell you what, I've got the temporary key
But you hold the permanent one.

It's held within you. Just keep searching
Inside you is a maze
lost in the back.
I have a map.

So no matter how badly you get hurt,
how many times you fall,
I will always pick up the pieces
and glue them back into place of your puzzle frame.

Cause I will never give up on you.
Always got your back in a fight, even if ya don't got mine
You're worth my everything, I'd give it all up
Just to see your face lit with one more smile.

-Tasman
