[Jamie Madrox] They tend to misunderstand the paper man Misses her hands who watches the hourglass for grains of sand To fall and fall again as he pretends That everything he lays his hands on doesn’t turn to shreds But why oh why does he persist to hide When they insist he try to come outside From the shell he lives inside Now has been hypnotized and Despite the lies he sits and waits to die Cuz he can’t find the words to explain the rain All these emotions are transformed and now become pain He’s alive in a black hole empty in space And he sits in front of the mirror and he’s face to face With the sadness confusion his patience he’s losing He’s substance abusing he’s one with the music And he needs a lil something to dial it all back Cuz he’s running in a race but he’s not on track
[Hook] Love don’t live here anymore, it’s been cold since you went away Now I’ve been trying to get myself together, is there something I can say that’ll make you stay Love don’t live here anymore, it’s been cold since you went away I’ve been trying to get my head together, but things just don’t seem to go my way
[Monoxide] All is see when I’m looking at you is me And everyday gets a lil bit harder Like a piece of my [?] slipped under the carpet And until this day I’m feeling like I’m never gonna find it I smoke a cigarette and hope for the best But sometimes that cigarette is just smoke in the chest I lay in bed But it [?] n getting rest instead I use it as an escape from all the mess Nuttin seems to matter I’m only getting sadder n sadder Cuz I’m not even sure what I’m after I know my life’s disaster n I better straighten it out Its stand tall or fall a victim of getting caught in A spiraling downfall of emotion that I call Devotion and destruction of everything and it’s my fault I’m hoping to try more let’s opening up my door And let em know I’m bringing it back like encore

[Monoxide] I’m an example of a bad example and as ample as it may seem A sample of this poisonous apple maybe rattles and daydream But I’m giving you reality checks and if you get it then it’s properly spent If you can’t handle it yet gimme a sec I make ya proud of me status surrounding me Totally hounding me expecting me to be like all the rest And I gotta be honest I’m not sure who I am on a constant basis So many faceless faces that are faced with Who the fuck am I with a shame its Not so much the lies and just lost in my mind Trying to find what it is that makes me feel right inside And I’m submerged by the urge to make it my day and night I’m in the struggle looking to fight for the right To be more than just alright... And I’m looking for my light so I can see what they got in store for my life
[Hook] Love don’t live here anymore, it’s been cold since you went away Now I’ve been trying to get myself together, is there something I can say that’ll make you stay Love don’t live here anymore, it’s been cold since you went away I’ve been trying to get my head together, but things just don’t seem to go my way Ohhhooohhhooohhh Love can be so cold...
