Stabbing Westward
Shame

If only see myself reflected in your eyes
So all that I believe I am essentially are lies
And everything I've hoped to be or ever thought I
Died with your belief in me so who that hell am I?
I'm wondering 'round confused
Wondering why I try
The more that you deny my pain
The more it intensifies...
I need someone to ache for me the way I ache for you...
If you ignore that I'm alive
I've nothing to cling to
I stare in this mirror
So tired of this life

If only you would speak to me or care if I'm alive
Once I swore I would die for you
But I never meant it like this
I never meant like this
no i never meant like this

I don't know if I'm real without you
What is left of me without you?
I don't know whats real without you
How can I exist without you?

Candlebox
Far Behind

Now maybe
I didn't mean to treat you bad
But I did it anyway
And now maybe
Someone would say your life was sad
But you lived it anyway
And so maybe
Your friends, they stand beside you as you were flying
Oh you were flying oh so high

But then someday people look at you
For what they call their own they watch you suffer
Yeah they hear you calling home
Then someday we can take our time
To brush the leaves aside so you can reach us
But you left me far behind

Now maybe, I didn't mean to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
Now maybe some would say you're left with what you had
But you couldn't share the pain
Couldn't share the pain they watch you suffer

Now maybe I could have made my own mistakes
But I live with what I've known
Yes maybe, we might share in something great
But won't you look at where we've grown
Won't you look at where we've gone

But then someday comes tomorrow holds
A sense of what I fear for you in my mind
As you trip the final line
And that cold day when you lost control
Shame you left my life so soon
You should have told me
But you left me far behind

Now maybe, I didn't mean to treat you oh so bad
But I did it anyway
Now maybe, some would say you're left with what you had
But you couldn't share the pain
I said times have changed your friends
They come and watch you crumble to the ground
They watch you suffer
Yea they hold you down, hold you down
Maybe brother, maybe love, i didn't mean to treat you bad
But you left me far behind
Left me far behind
