love will find me

when i walk home i never feel lonely
it's spring and i'm coming back to life again
i am held by the wind, baptized by the rain
waltz with the blossoms, drift to the pavement

i still believe love will find me
love will find me

i know the thoughts that cross your mind
i'm holding on for truth of a different kind
kisses that shake me, make my body sing
eyes that look within, that see past the skin

i still believe love will find me
love will find me

sometimes i surrender to the moment
cuz i'm not sure if tomorrow's really coming
the whole world's at war, fighting for nothing
the building's are falling, we're all for the killing

but i still believe love will find me
love will find me

casually

why do you feel the need to lie? i'm not gonna fall for it
i'm not sixteen anymore
all those pretty words you spout, like i won't figure it out
like i haven't been through this before

you say nobody sees me for who i am
to imply you do as you try to woo me with the weakest sham
but i see through you

you didn't let me down
you didn't let me down
you just met my lowest expectation
and i am disappointed but not surprised

that's the beginning and the end, now don't bother to pretend
like you're actually worried for me
cuz it don't matter anyway, got my heart break stowed away
for someone who's worth the agony

you say you wanna kiss me, my composure slips
cuz it's easy to see how casually things pass your lips
i want none of it

you didn't let me down
you didn't let me down
you just met my lowest expectation
and i am disappointed but not surprised

you must think i'm stupid
i am disappointed
but unsuprised

weapons of mass destruction

dragged you around like you were my old ball n' chain
but it was all in my head, i must have been insane
now i'll shoot you through the heart, a nice clean bullet wound
so you can get on with your life and mine can finally resume

i stumble around in a fog of my own making
but i'm not taking any prisoners anymore
i stumble around in the fallout i called down
but i'm not crowning any kings anymore

strung on a line, all of you i've loved for nothing
say you love me forever, but lies don't soothe the sting
so i'll let my arrows fly, shoot down your once-upon-a-times
so happily ever after won't have to die for your crimes

i stumble around in a fog of my own making
but i'm not taking any prisoners anymore
i stumble around in the fallout i called down
but i'm not crowning any kings anymore

i wasn't made for anyone else
so i will unmake myself

everybody's in trouble

it's coming down, coming down, coming down
you brought the rain
and if it stops i'll do a dance and say a prayer
to bring it back down again

today i'll go for a walk and get soaked to the skin
today i'll let the rain replace the pain i'm bathing in

everybody's in trouble
breaking to pieces
where are the kings men when you need 'em

i just wanna know that you're alright
at least one of us should make it out alive

it's coming down, coming down, coming down
to a nasty fall
couldn't stay safe below i had to climb up and
risk it all

today i'll find a way to mend my splintered bones
today i'll let the fall rupture my heart of stone

everybody's in trouble
breaking to pieces
where are the kings men when you need 'em

i just wanna know that you're alright
at least one of us should make it out alive
