1.
Outside (The Selfish Love Manifesto) Here is the deal between us Here is our pact for life We could keep our secrets As we should keep the lies You don't owe me reasons So I won't ask you why Here is the deal between us Don't ever look outside Here is the deal on freedom We don't believe in shame This is our vision, our common way We're not here for revenge Fleeing from someone else And we take no prisoners other than ourselves Here is the deal on future No missed chance to regret Pretend there is no consequence when things get hard to forget Take the past for granted as tomorrow may be not Take today as it comes as it's everything we got If we never look outside Outside, don't ever look outside
2.
F.L.Y. (Fucking Love You) I have been the bend on your smile Happiness just once in a while Uncertainty seen as worthwhile What's left of me is the man I have been The emptiness of a loneliness making machine Carving new scars on your skin You and I You and I, a never found rhyme You and I, a tear on the inside You and I, a matter of time You and I, aimin' for an unreachable climb You and I, a perfect goodbye
3.
Save me (A Sort Of Prayer) Lend me the strength I'd need to strive I'll bring the wit and I'll take the knife And make it either black or white to me grey is just the cheapest fight I don't believe in compromise Please save me from being wise Consistency tends to be blind So change the purpose and I'll change my mind And make me aware of things you fudge to try to teach me how not to judge 'Cause I could try but I wouldn't swear Please save me from being fair When I ask questions in search for a trace Remind me that answers cannot be erased Don't show directions while helping with the road I would find my way out, just tell me to go Don't praise me if I'm right, don't blame me when I'm wrong But show that through your eyes there's no difference at all Save me once again 'cause after all I'm just a man
4.
Gone (A Song About Leaving) What could I tell you more, after trying every word? Isn't my silence enough? And I've opened up my soul to let you see my whole world Do you still have anything to learn? Why are you standing at the door? This time I wont come back home Here is not where I belong anymore 'Cause the days of my life are the only thing I own And I feel I'm not growing up but I'm just getting old I still have something to find out crossed the line of no return But how could I tell you that I'm gone?
