Lyrics to “My First 5K Mix”
Running Blind
Godsmack
Can’t find the answers
I’ve been crawling on my knees
Looking for anything
To keep me from drowning
Promises have been turned to lies
Can’t even be honest inside
Now I’m looking backward
Watching my life wave me good-bye
Running Blind
I’m running blind
Somebody help me see
I’m running blind
Searching for nothing
Wondering if I’ll change
I’m trying everything
But everything still stays the same
Thought if I showed you I could fly
Wouldn’t need anyone by my side
Now I’m going backwards
With broken wings I know I’ll die
Running blind
I’m running blind
Somebody help me see
I’m running blind
Running blind (x4)
I can’t find the answers
I’ve been crawling on my knees
Looking for anything
To keep me from drowning
I’m running blind (x10)

Straight Out of Line
Godsmack
There’s no reason
There’s no compromise
Changing seasons
Living the high life
I don’t know you
So don’t freak on me
I can’t control you
You’re not my destiny
Straight out of line
I can’t find the reason
Why I should justify my ways
Straight out of line
I don’t need a reason
You don’t need to lie to me
I’ll confess this
You’re my tragedy
I laid you to rest
Just as fast as you turned on me
Gone forever
Vanished the memory
Displays of pleasure
Are masked by your misery
Straight out of line
I can’t find the reason
Why I should justify my ways
Straight out of line
I don’t need a reason
You don’t need to lie to me
*******
Bad Religion
Godsmack
Can you feel
I’m not like you anymore
I can’t see, I can’t breathe
See you quiver, like the dogs on the street
Looking down on as I beat you
Oh, it’s a bad religion
From a broken nation
It’s a contradiction
And I can’t take anymore
Who’s to say I won’t like you anyway?
Take a deep breath, I’m alive
Can you hear me, I’m alive inside you
Agony creeps up behind you
Oh, it’s a bad religion
From a broken nation
It’s a contradiction
And I can’t take any fucking way
It’s a bad religion (x3)
From a broken nation
It’s a contradiction, yeah
Can you feel it?
I gotta live with it everyday
And I can’t take the pressure
I’m going insane
Now, go away
Go away
*******
Changes
Godsmack
All or nothing
It’s sometimes lies between what’s undecided
And all for nothing
It seems I’ve wasted my time
Don’t look down on me
Like I don’t know anything that I’ve been doing
You talk down to me
It’s time you take a better look inside
I’ll never be the same
I’m moving back onto my ways
I’m looking for changes
To better my way
Bow down to me
Taking your pride and stuff it down inside
Vows are ruined
Losing my faith, losing time
Better off you than me
I just can’t stand another day when you’re in my way
A long time brewing
It’s time to kiss your ass good-bye
I’ll never be the same
I’m moving back onto my ways
I’m looking for changes
I’ll never be the same
I’m moving back onto my ways
I’m looking for changes
To better my ways
*******
Awake
Godsmack
Wait another minute
Can’t you see
What this pain
Has fucking done to me
I’m alive and kickin’
What you see, I can’t see
And maybe
You’ll think before you speak
I’m alive
For you, I’m awake
Because of you, I’m alive
Told you, I’m awake
Swallowing you
Take
Another second
Turn your back on me and make believe
That you’re always happy
It’s safe to say
You’ll realize
A big part of you has die
And by the way
I HOPE YOU’RE SATISFIED
I’m alive
For you, I’m awake
Because of you, I’m alive
Told you, I’m awake
Swallowing you
Tearing it back, unveiling Me
Taking a step back so I can breathe
Hear the silence about to break
Fear resistence when I’m awake
Oh, tearing it back, unveiling me
Taking a step back so I can breathe
Hear the silence about to break
Fear resistence when I’m awake
I’m alive
For you, I’m awake
Because of you, I’m alive
Told you, I’m awake
Swallowing you
*******
I Stand Alone
Godsmack
Now I’ve told you this once before
You can’t control me
If you try to take me down you’re gonna pay
Now I feel your every nothing that you’re doing for me
I’m picking you outa me
You run away
I stand alone
Inside
I stand alone
You’re always hiding behind your so called goddess
So what you don’t think that we can see your face
Resurrected back before the final fallen
I’ll never rest until I can make my own way
I’m not afraid of fading
I stand alone
Feeling your sting down inside of me
I’m not dying for it
I stand alone
Everything that I believe is fading
I stand alone
Inside
I stand alone
And now its my time (now its my time)
It’s my time to dream (my time to dream)
Dream of the sky (dream of the sky)
Make me believe that this place isn’t plagued
By the poison in me
Help me decide if my fire will burn out
Before you can breathe
Breathe into me I stand alone
Inside
I stand alone
Feeling your sting down inside of me
I’m not dying for it
I stand alone
Everything that I believe is fading
I stand alone
Inside
I stand alone*******
Whatever
Godsmack
And I wonder day to day
I don’t like you anyway
I don’t need your shit today
You’re pathetic in your own way
I feel for you
(Better fucking go away)
I will behave
(You better fucking go away)
I’m doing the best I ever did
I’m doing the best that I can
I’m doing the best I ever did
I don’t need to fantisize
You are my pet all the time
I don’t mind if you go blind
You’ get what you get until you’re through with mine
I feel for you
(Better fucking go away)
I will behave
(You better fucking go away)
I feel for you
(Better fucking go away)
I will behave
(You better fucking go away)
I’m doing the best I ever did
I’m doing the best that I can
I’m doing the best I ever did
Now, GO AWAY
I’m doing the best I ever did
I’m doing the best that I can
I’m doing the best I ever did
Now, GO AWAY
*******
Re-Align
Godsmack
Decisions made from desperation
No way to go
Internal insticts craving isolation
For me to grow
My fears come alive
In this place where I once died
Demons dreaming
Knowing I….
I just needed to re-align
Fell in a river of illusion
And apathy
Drowning in a self-induced confusion
I’d rather be
Yeah
My fears come alive
In this place where I once died
Demons dreaming
Knowing I…
I just need to re-align
*******
Faceless
Godsmack
Hate me with everything
I’m better off without your animosity
I’ll even sleep better at night
At night
I won’t believe in you
Reminding me of everything you put me through
Now everything just feels alright - ALRIGHT
I feel so betrayed
Mistaken
I create another day
You’ll be gone tomorrow
Lie to me
YOU’RE FACELESS
You’ve made me out to be
REsponsible for your self-inflicted misery
It never felt like this before - Before
Don’t be surprised to see
That I have nothing left to bleed
When you come crawling back for more
I feel so betrayed
Mistaken
I create another day
You’ll be gone tomorrow
Lie to me
YOU’RE FACELESS
And I create another day
You’ll be gone tomorrow
Lie to me
YOU’RE FACELESS
*******
Spiral
Godsmack
Sometimes we only live for the here and now
And sometimes we’re lonely
Sometimes we feel we need a place to be grounded
Or fly away again
I will fly away again
I will fly away again
I feel rain pouring down
I wait to
Rot away
Live again
Here forever
The Spiral never ends
Why are we feeling something’s familiar around us?
Are we just dreaming?
Always we search for the answers
But nothing is found
We fly away again
I will fly away again
I will fly away again
I feel rain pouring down
I wait to
Rot away
Live again
Here forever
The Spiral never ends
*******
Keep Away
Godsmack
Sickness spilling through your eyes
Craving everything you that thought was alive
Stab me
In heart again
Drag me through your wasted life
Are you forever dead?
Do like I told you
Stay away from me
Never misunderstand me
Keep away from me
Twistin’ everything around that you say
Smack me in my mouth 200 times every other day
Rag me
I don’t hear you anymore, not yet
Find out what it means to me
I don’t know who you are
Do like I told you
Stay away from me
Never misunderstand me
Keep away from me
Draggin’ on so lonely
Aren’t you tired baby?
Breathing life into your lungs
Are you immune to me?
Do like I told you
Stay away from me
Never misunderstand me
Keep away from me
*******
Serenity
Godsmack
As I sit here and slowly close my eyes
I take another deep breath
And feel the wind pass through my body
I’m the one in your soul
Reflecting inner light
Protect the ones who hold you
Cradling your inner child
I need serenity
In a place where I can hide
I need serenity
Nothing changes, days go by
Where do we go when we just don’t know
And how do we relight the flame when it’s cold
Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing
And when will we learn to control
Tragic visions slowly stole my life
Tore away everything
Cheating me out of my time
I’m the one who loves you
No matter wrong or right
And every day I hold you
I hold you with my inner child
I need serenity
In a place where I can hide
I need serenity
Nothing changes, days go by
Where do we go when we just don’t know
And how do we relight the flame when it’s cold
Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing
And when will we learn to control
