You could've had it all...

CHRISTOPHER SCOTT - PASSIVE AGRESSIVE

V.1
passive agressive, i see
we're going nowhere quickly
you hold the door, i lost the key
a long time ago
you can't hide behind your shallow guise
i see through you with knowing eyes
there's something wrong
you could have...

CHORUS
cried to me when i saw you falling down
cried to me when i was your friend
cried to me before it was over
but this is the end
don't cry to me

V.2
sooner or later you'll see
you had it all so easy
you wouldn't stay, threw it away
for doubts in your mind
you can't hide behind your sweet goodbyes
i see behind your bloodshot eyes
there's something wrong
you could have...

CHORUS

BRIDGE
there was a place inside my heart for you
i waited there with open arms for you
but you wouldn't let me through to you
and now there's nothing more that i can do

CHORUS

Nobody will ever understand

CHRISTOPHER SCOTT - HOPELESSLY

V.1
from the moment i saw you
felt your eyes beckoning me
your presence filled up the room
it's spinning around, i can't believe
i'm so hopelessly lost
when i see your smile
when i hear your voice
it carries me miles & miles & miles
i can't escape, i can't erase
the beautiful memory of your face
you walk on air, floating between
heaven & earth & dreams

CHORUS
what if i said i would give anything
what would it take for you to
smile down on me
all that i want is to give you everything
'cause i don't want to love you
hopelessly

V.2
mere words could never define you
they lack such gravity
you have a passion for life
a passion i wish you'd feel for me
you don't even know
you don't even see
how all that you are
resonates deep inside of me
how where you are
is where i long to be

CHORUS

BRIDGE
you lie
somewhere between here and magic
you smile
and i come all undone
you know
nothing would be more tragic
than if we missed the one...

CHORUS

Pain

CHRISTOPHER SCOTT - MISSING YOU

V.1
i watched the sunset tonight
and i thought about you
dreamed of the green in your eyes
and saw the sky fade to blue
i still talk to you every other day
but it’s just not the same
when you’re so far away

CHORUS
i don’t need the air that i breathe
i don’t have to close my eyes to sleep
and i don’t even cry when i’m feeling blue
just like i’m not missing, missing you

V.2
if you ask me i’m fine
but that’s only half-true
i can’t keep walking this line
unless it leads back to you
so can you tell me where i go from here
from where i’m at it seems like
you’ve been gone for years

CHORUS

Years

CHRISTOPHER SCOTT - GIVE IN TO THE RAIN

V.1
it's an empty victory
without your heart
so mine lies shrouded
in this suffocating dark
the words don't flow so freely now
just solitary thoughts of how
'cause this bed's so cold
do you know
can you feel it where you are
'cause it takes all i've got
to steal another second
away from these thoughts
from everything i'm not

CHORUS
and they lied
'cause time is not a healer
all it does is numb the pain
and i've tried
but nothing else can reach her
there's nothing left to do
but give in to the rain

V.2
the emptiness that
fills this place
floods my memories
like the look upon your face
and the road before me
looms so long
and only God knows why
i try to carry on
'cause this room's so cold
do you know
can you feel it where you are
'cause it takes all i've got
to steal another second
away from these thoughts
from everything i'm not

CHORUS

BRIDGE
and i stand everything to lose
and everything to gain
but it's not up to me to choose

CHORUS
