Find Yourself
03:03

|
You knew you were everything to me,
I set sail across the open sea,
Trying to find my peace of mind,
Having nothing to call mine,
I hope you know you don't have to try,
I'm a cat that's hooked on cyanide,
And it's the bottom of the ninth,
So, I have to say goodbye.
You took it upon yourself to watch me fall apart,
I know those hazel eyes can't see,
This is just the end of the start,
But I'll make this fast,
So I can find what makes the last time last,
I cannot stay around,
‘Cause we found ourselves.
Hopeless reminders in my brain,
I need someone to keep me sane,
I thought this was the thing,
But I'll fall apart when I see you tonight,
So I'll never try again,
And you can tell how it tastes to call me a friend,
Resist to bend, and break, and make mistakes,
‘Cause I just can't take it.
You took it upon yourself to watch me fall apart,
I know those hazel eyes can't see,
This is just the end of the start,
But I'll make this fast,
So I can find what makes the last time last,
I cannot stay around,
‘Cause we found ourselves.
When all eyes are upon us,
I'll shake us at the foundation,
I was right, you were mistaken.
You took it upon yourself to watch me fall apart,
I know those hazel eyes can't see,
This is the end, JUST the end,
So I'll make this fast,
To find the mindset,
To make this time the last,
And I know you'll hate this sound,
But we found ourselves.

High & Dry
04:47
|

I'm like a deer in headlights when
I see your face,
With this overwhelming look of awe of that I can't erase.
And here I am,
A whole year and three months late,
and I hate to be blunt,
But tell me, love,
Who was the mistake?
(And I don't know how much longer I can wait around for an answer,
But still, I’ll stand around,
Until my legs and heart hurt)
You left me so high and dry,
(You left me)
If I could leap, I could fly,
(But you’ve got me anchored to the ground)
You left me so high and dry,
(Contested)
If I could leap, I could fly.
She's a hard hitter,
But I can't quit her,
She's a memory to erase,
Cause nothing’s gonna take my boys’ place.
(X2)
He threw a fit, now you come running back to me,
He kicked you out around a quarter past three.
He'll apologize,
but you're too fucking thick to realize,
It's all lies.
You left me so high and dry.
If I could leap, I could fly.
You left me behind, I left you to cry,
I gave you my heart, right from the start,
I've still got my friends,
Through the thick,
And the thin.
(X2)
Hope you find someone good enough,
Someone who gives a fuck,
Like I did.
(x4)
You left me so high and dry.
If I leap, I could fly.
See if I wait,
See if I wait,
Tumor on my mental health, just,
See if I wait.
See if I wait,
(See if I wait)
See if I wait,
(See if I wait)
Tumor on my mental health, just,
See if I wait.

O. M. F.
03:36

Repeating the notion that nothings the same,
This madness provided,
Is covered with shame,
I cant think without you here,
I've gone insane, sheltered by fear,
I want you back, I want you here,
I'm looking around but you're nowhere near.
(Depression will be my downfall)
It's all around,
Through heartache and catastrophe,
You've become much more than a memory,
I'll smile, but it's just a front,
I swear it doesn't mean much,
If mom asks, I'm doing fine,
But truthfully, I'm dying inside.
Next time you check on me,
I swear I'll be,
In a better state of mind,
A better state of mind,
Next time you check on me,
I swear I'll be,
In a better state of mind,
A better state of mind.
You meant much more to me than you know,
Depression has settled in my bones,
If I can't figure out what's next,
It's tempting to follow in your foot steps,
We'll meet again, when I ascend,
Oh please, just tell me this isn't the end,
Now that you're gone, I'll try to move on,
Praying for something to keep me strong.
(Depression will be my downfall)
It's all around,
Through heartache and catastrophe,
You've become much more than a memory,
I'll smile, but it's just a front,
I swear it doesn't mean much,
If mom asks, I'm doing fine,
But truthfully, I'm dying inside.
So,
Next time you check on me,
I swear I'll be,
In a better state of mind,
A better state of mind,
Next time you check on me,
I swear I'll be,
In a better state of mind,
A better state of mind.
Please,
Come back to me.
This life is so lonely,
And I just can't fall asleep,
It wasn't just from you,
You took it from us too.
Next time you check on me,
I swear I'll be,
In a better state of mind,
A better state of mind.
(X3)
(You got me,
So afraid,
Of pearly gates,
I hope it's better than this place,
See your face,
In everything,
Every day.)
This time next year,
I promise I'll be better.

False Intentions
04:39
|

|
I'm trying hard to be the man you want to see,
I fall for false intentions, make a fool out of me,
Be my witness in disinterest,
I know I'll never live this down,
But I can't fight much longer,
The pain to make me stronger,
Make me fight,
Give me strength,
Give me time to sort out my life,
(All it takes is time,
All it takes is time)
I find it hard to believe you cared enough just to leave,
I'll wear my heart on my sleeve,
To beg you stay here with me,
When were you there for me?
It took so long to see,
Set my life free,
You're killing me kindly,
You were the worst part about me,
How could this ever be?
So far above me, but
You said you loved me.
Make me fight,
Give me strength,
Give me time to sort out my life,
(All it takes is time,
All it takes is time)
I find it hard to believe,
you cared enough just to leave,
I'll wear my heart on my sleeve,
So you can stay here with me.
You take and you take,
I was the mistake
After all you called this fate.
Make me fight,
Give me strength,
Give me time,
to sort out my life,
All it takes is time, all it takes is time,
I find it hard to believe you cared enough just to leave,
I'll wear my heart on my sleeve,
To beg you stay here with me,
(I hope you can forgive me for all that I do,
But this is who I am, I wasn't born to please you,
You're convinced that I failed to care enough about you,
So now my heart loves on without you.)

You use me up like I'm nothing,
(Like I'm just in the way)
But I swear deep down I'm something,
At my lowest of lows,
Suffer blow after blow,
I'm trying hard not to show it,
But, honey, you've gotta go.
I'm taking my time,
(Pray the curtains close)
Yeah, I'm making it slow and painful,
I've got a question and I've gotta know,
Just when did you love me,
And why am I all alone?
I'm headed out soon wait and see,
(You're chewing me up, yeah, you're spitting me out)
If you're the last to know, it don't bother me,
(I loved you, in theory)
You didn't give a damn when you had the chance,
Looks like we lost our perfect romance.
An eye for an eye,
(Karma kill me tonight)
A tooth for a tooth,
(Out of sight, out of mind)
You told me luck is for the hopeless,
(I'm hopeless),
And maybe that's just the truth,
I'm sick of who I was,
(So conflicted)
But I hate who I've become,
(Who am I?)
Will this ever be over?
Will this ever be done?
Will I ever break the mold or will I stare at the sun?
(Far too blind)
I'm headed out soon wait and see,
(You're chewing me up, yeah, you're spitting me out)
If you're the last to know, it don't bother me,
(I loved you, in theory)
You didn't give a damn when you had the chance,
Looks like we lost our perfect romance.
I'll break these walls down,
I'll end this pain,
Don't forget my face,
But don't use my name,
I wanted happiness,
Not this damn shame,
I tried to tell you,
I wasn't the one to blame.
I'm headed out soon wait and see,
(You're chewing me up, yeah, you're spitting me out)
If you're the last to know, it don't bother me,
(I loved you, in theory)
You didn't give a damn when you had the chance,
Looks like we lost our perfect romance.

Outcome of Last Year
02:36
|
|||
|
I only asked for your attention,
My problems stay by me,
I forgot to mention,
I'll try to comprehend,
Why they always leave,
I can't make you stay,
It's why I'm up at 3,
The hole you've made has grown inside me,
Just like the demons Im fighting,
And all these emotions I'm hiding,
I know,
That I have to stay afloat,
In a way, I can live through this, I know,
But you can't see what's going on inside,
This negative energy will take it's time,
I'm always living life in fear,
But that's just the outcome of last year.
I only had good intentions,
But every time I tried, I found your prevention,
They always go,
But they have to know,
That I will always show my high hopes.
Im not sure what will come my way,
I may hide my emotions,
But you’ll feel my pain.
I know,
That I have to stay afloat,
In a way, I can live through this, I know,
But you can't see what's going on inside,
This negative energy will take it's time,
I'm always living life in fear,
But that's just the outcome of last year.
Everytime I get back up,
From being torn down,
I'm begging for help,
but no one’s around.
