CAME AROUND THE HARD WAY The ghosts that held us to this place The taxi cabs, graffiti names All fading in the streetlight haze I'm leaving now but its ok You and me we're not the same We never broke or looked away The promises we threw aside maybe now's the time to make them pay Here's to those that held us down Here's to nothing at all Here's to those with broken wings For those against the wall And if your asking how Ive been I came around the hard way I came around the hard way I came around the hard way I came around the hard way All these people here forgetting how to breathe Drown in their own regret Feelings pass just words remain You and me we've higher ground On broken dreams each footstep traced Faced our fears on lonely streets laughed and cried with no disgrace Here's to those that held us down Here's to nothing at all Here's to those with broken wings For those against the wall And if your asking how Ive been For everything that's out of place For every best forgotten face The bad decisions I stood by Everything I kept inside I came around the hard way I came around the hard way I came around the hard way I came around the hard way

State of Grace Sometimes I close my eyes, try to wish it all away the hardest days, the longest nights Then I feel ashamed - see how far we've come? the times weve laughed until we cried. I'd give it all if I could reach you If you would only let me in Where do we go, no one knows the roads we walk down Never back down in this state of Grace Standing alone, putting piece by piece together Standing alone – in this state of Grace No one understands, the pain a word - a sound can bring Chasing shadows, running from the light They can never know – the fear inside uncertanty the confusion hiding in a smile I'd give it all and ask for nothing If you would only let me in Where do we go, no one knows the roads we walk down Never back down in this state of Grace Standing alone, putting piece by piece together Standing alone – in this state of Grace

A Beautiful day for the rain She say's she's tired of remembering All the things she promised to forget A birthday wish, and a wedding ring Memories in the smoke of her ciggarettes Yesterday it seemed like a dream The silence deafening now inside her head December heart and vacant stare All of her grief and prayers - the company of one The TV's on, but he's miles away In the nothing that was lost between love and hate Killing time, he swears we're dying anyway and sentiment has no place here anymore Yesterday it seemed like a dream The silence deafening now inside his head December heart and vacant stare All of his grief and prayers - the company of one It's a beautiful day for the rain It's a beautiful day for the rain Let the rain run down and wash all this pain away It's a beautiful day for the rain December heart and vacant stare All of their grief and prayers - the company of one
