2. I've Been Up These Steps
it was the worst time the first
time it ever went sour things fell
apart too soon i was so let down
i learned then to never go back
i've been once only once, never
reconnect me its better done bet-
ter seen it's sinking so i'll get out
alive it could be the death of me.
there's no reason to hold on i
never fall down because i never
get dizzy it might be bitter or
whatever it's nothing i can't
wash my hands of anyhow, never
reconnect me it's better done
better seen it's sinking so i'll get
out alive it could be the death of
me. it's so useless, so useless the
burn will be there i'm not fooling
myself i won't regret it forget it
i'll never go back i'll never turn
back no. i've been held, held
down too long it won't hold very
long. i've been held, held down
too long. it's nothing that i can't
escape.
4. I Cut Myself, Too
are you holding out? are you
satisfied i'm making confessions
i'm moving on and you're just
waiting around, while you were
down and looking for someone
to foll,ow misunderstood i
understood you well. if it helps to
ease your mind you're not putting
me out tonite. don't you think
you need some time? i'm not
putting you in tonight. and it
helps to know, to know you're
not alone, you're not fucked up,
just waiting, patient waiting for
the call and just like you now and
then i cut myself to pieces and it
rains, it pours but it doesn't make
any sense, now you're crushing
like cement 'til you find your
perfect fit to stand out from the
rest to shine on you the best.
well we all down is it better
now or are you still broken?
i'm moving on and you're still
waiting around.

flat on my face, i see what it takes
to cut through the bullshit. to cut to the chase.
and when i get up, i won't forget
the place that you left me. the place that you left.
better run away. run away.
'cause you know i can't wait for the next time.
you better run away. run away.
for nothing's gonna save you the next time.
and when i catch up, it will be great.
i'll set a trap for you. i just can't wait.
one of these days, one of these days
my friend ming tran'll kick you right in the face.

'cause you know i can't wait for the next time.

my friend ming tran'll kick you right in the face.
better run away. (run away) run away.
'cause you know i can't wait for the next time.
