My dad came from Mexico
As a kid he came here
His brothers left
He decided to stay near
All his life he knew nothing else
That won't be me
I love you guys
But set me free
I need a better view
Of people's difficulties
Being confined
It's not for me
My friends say
How they want to leave
But they'll be the ones
Crawling back to Cali
The people who say
They want to stay
Are the ones
Who go away

Show me what i have to do to earn your love again
give me another chance to prove myself
it's not easy to recover from mistakes
you wouldn't understand because you're flawless
So try to understand how sorry I am
I don't want to lose you again
So try to understand how sorry I am
I don't want to lose you again
I'm not asking for you to forgive
Just for you to open your eyes
See the position I hold you in in my mind
Now stop and be a bit more kind
So try to understand how sorry I am
I don't want to lose you again
So try to understand how sorry I am
I don't want to lose you again
who the hell wants to be alone tonight?

To Be Happy

I should've never let go
endured the constant silence
I didn't realize what you felt
obligation felt dense
But I needed that connection
But failed to realize that you felt drowned
I know you're scared but this time
I'll keep my feelings bound
I should've stayed I don't deserve
the love you give me
This time I'll give you everything you need
To be happy
Why does it feel so new when
we both know each other?
How is it you remember
the things that hardly mattered
I know this is love
for I'd sacrifice it all
to be with you forever
then in love we'll fall
I should've stayed I don't deserve
the love you give me
This time I'll give you everything you need
To be happy
I should've stayed I don't deserve
the love you give me
This time I'll give you everything you need
To be happy

I never really knew the real you
You've always been a couple feet away
I blame myself even though you were unapproachable
Now you're gone and I've got nothing to say
Now I see how life is treating you
Losing what love you most and losing all hope
I want to help you as the brother I am
But I feel my hands are tied with rope
I see you trying to make up for those years
Where we could've helped each other by talking things through
I think I'll call you today to ask about work
Or whatever else is on your mind
I'll take back all the times I offended you
Like when I said, "why are you still here just leave already"
I wish I could take back all the pointless fights I made
I hope that I'll still have you as a friend

I am lost

I will love you even if we can't create
I feel your sorrow but he's withing the golden gates
I wish to touch you and give you a name
This is wicked still we look toward you to blame
And I imagine holding you close to me
And I imagine who you would grow up to be
But that is lost
Now I am lost
When will this torment and this sadness begin to end
I only want for these wounds to start to end
Are these the loose ends and the sins of my past?
I just don't understand why he has to finish last
And I imagine holding you close to me
And I imagine who you would grow up to be
I only wanted to help you see
I wasn't ready to set you free
I wasn't ready to set you free

The door is closed
I'm all alone without you
I kept your coat
And all the poems you wrote
I'll try to fill
The holes in everyone's life
I'll keep the lies
and all the secrets you told me
Sometimes I hear your voice
cussing me out
This bond wont break even if you're
six feet underground
underground
underground
underground
underground
We don't speak of you
The subject hurts too much
But we'll drink a few
and leave the rest for you
The trees died with you
I'm not the same
The better half of me
I'll never be the same
Sometimes I hear your voice
cussing me out
This bond wont break even if you're
six feet underground
underground
underground
underground
underground
I remember when we used to shoot each other with pellet guns
And it's times like that that i miss the most
And the world that i used to see as black and white
has just turned grey
Sometimes I hear your voice
cussing me out
This bond wont break even if you're
six feet underground
underground
underground
underground
underground

you are the one that has control over me
this time this love will show to be far from ordinary
This time I'll give to you the deeper better part of me
But you don't have to change for me
I'll break myself apart to conform to you
You are the rose that never wilts within my hand
I am the ground that fails to bare you the worthless sand
This time I'll give to you the deeper better part of me
But you don't have to change for me
I'll break myself apart to conform to you
Show me what I have to do
To properly love you
show me what i have to do
to conform to you
This time I'll give to you the deeper better part of me
But you don't have to change for me
I'll break myself apart to conform to you

College is done
Now you're leaving forever
There was a part of me
That hoped it wasn't for sure
You filled the whole Daniel left
I need you
Who's gonna control me?
Copy their sacrifice for lent
Well at least you set an example
You're the better parent
Don't forget me yet
I want to leave you with more
Than what I gave you
I want you to miss me
Miss all our stupid feuds
We need more
I'm sorry we aren't that close
But I need you
I really need you
I know your in pain
But I'll soak up the all rain
when you leave on that plane
Things will never be the same
Don't forget me yet
Don't forget me at all
