He wasn't really known for breaking the rules When he arrived in the second year of my high school He wasn't so much of a twist of fate As a short turn up from a Southern state He was born with a sweet tooth he couldn't beat Always trying to find himself something sweet All that he found was a trouble and me Or maybe trouble just found him It was hard to hide that his heart had scars He would stay up late talking to the stars People tried to blame him for making bad choices When he was only listening to the voices And searching for some kind of deeper truth Between the lines and the Bible and living proof There's no point now to judge him in vain If you haven't been there, you don't know the pain He was a liar, but not a fraud Living proof that there was no God Just the Devil, stiff as a rod A slave to a sugartooth His life became more than he could take He found a bad habit he couldn't break Nothing could tame him and nothing could hold him He only took the pills when the doctor told him Looking to help for the something sweet To make his life feel less incomplete What in the hell are you gonna do When the world has made its mind up about you? He was a liar, but not a fraud Living proof that there was no God Just the Devil, stiff as a rod A slave to a sugartooth He wanted to be a better man Then life kicked him down like an old tin can He would give you the shirt on his back If not for a sugartooth They found him lying on his bed With a gun in his hand and a quiet head His broken heart, now, is finally gone But I know that he had to hurt for too long To think he had fought it all on his own Just to lose the battle and die alone After so many years of feeling the loss He finally made his way back home And I heard they put what was left in a box And took it to a place called Jesus Rock And scattered him all over jagged mound As a symbol to all that the piece had been found But not for a sign is left behind With a hand stuck reaching back in time To a place in which you can never unwind I hope he found something so sweet He was a liar, but not a fraud Living proof that there was no God Just the Devil, stiff as a rod A slave to a sugartooth He wanted to be a better man But life kicked him down like an old tin can He would give you the shirt on his back If not for a sugartooth Ooh, ooh, ooh, a slave to a sugartooth Ooh, ooh, ooh, a slave to a sugartooth Ooh, ooh, ooh, a slave to a sugartooth Ooh, ooh, ooh, a slave to a sugartooth

Follow your heart and see where it might take you Don't let the world outside there break you They know not who you are inside They have never felt your hell Don't ever let them crack Hold out, I know you feel it getting cold out Without the blanket for your soul now Before you know it you'll be frozen You have to see this through There's no one here but you I feel the rain coming down It reminds me of who I used to be But now that's nothing more Than a memory Don't go, to sleep and cry because tomorrow If you let it it will swallow You up and none of this will matter Will matter anymore I feel the rain coming down It reminds me of who I used to be But now that's nothing more Than a memory I feel the rain coming down It reminds me of who I used to be But now that's nothing more Oh, now that's nothing more Than a memory Follow your heart and see where it might take you Don't let the world outside there break you They know not who you are inside They have never felt your hell Don't ever let them crack Your shell

Dreams, I have dreams When I'm awake, when I'm asleep And you, you are in my dreams You're underneath my skin, how am I so weak? And now, in my dreams I can feel the wait, I could just come clean I keep it to myself, I know what it means I can't have you but I have dreams How long can you hold your breath? Can you count to ten, can you let it pass? And keep, can you keep it in? And keep it behind lashes, can you make it last? And now, in my dreams I can feel the way, I could just come clean I keep it to myself, I know what it means I can't have you but I have dreams And I have dreams, I have dreams, woo Mind, can you read my mind? Has it come undone, am I showin' signs? And now in my dreams I can feel the wait, I could just come clean I keep it to myself, I know what it means I can't have you but I have dreams And I have dreams, I have, I have, I have dreams

I'm like the rain in a downpour I wash away what you long for And I wave goodbye with the sun in my eyes But I wish I could be there tonight I'm like the wind in the canyon I'm there then I'm gone in a second And you're growing older in peace where you're at I wish I could be there for that But I've moved on Like a rolling stone In a crowded room I'm alone And I'm like the rain in a downpour And I wash away what you long for Oh I wave goodbye with the sun in my eyes I wish I could be there tonight Oh, oh, yeah You're like the tide in the deep blue 'Cause you're always there when I need you And when you need someone to carry you through I'm gonna be there for you I'm gonna be there for you

I don't hang around that place no more I'm tired of wearing circles in the floor And I don't carry myself very well I've gotten so much braver, can you tell? I'm happy, can't you see I'm alright, but I miss you, Amber Lee And I line my secrets up all one by one I put 'em all away when I was done And I would really love to hear your voice sometime To close a little distance in my mind I'm happy, can't you see I'm alright, but I miss you, Amber Lee I believe Where have you been all these years? How could you just disappear? And when did you stop missing me? I'm happy, can't you see I'm alright, but I miss you, Amber Lee I'm alright, but I miss you, Amber Lee
