Coward 02:39
This road’s pretty empty Like my heart of lies Each one tattooed Showing where I’ve been White streaks in the middle Like little spurts of truth Hidden in the midst of tar Thick and black and staining I always run But I never turn back Disintegrating, I’ve turned to a corpse My muscles hold together my bones Because I’m a coward, I am alone The steering wheel pulls Begging me to go back I wasn’t finished there There’s more than just that Miles of green stretch on, Glowing in the moonlight Reminding me of myself As it sings a lullaby. I always run But I never turn back Disintegrating, I’ve turned to a corpse My muscles hold together my bones Because I’m a coward, I am alone The only soul on the road Is the one that crashed into me Metal sprawled out on the grass blood dripping from our seats The only soul on the road Is the one that crashed into me Metal sprawled out on the grass blood dripping from our seats I always run But I never turn back Disintegrating, I’ve turned to a corpse My muscles hold together my bones Because I’m a coward, I am alone

Tears in my eyes cuz you’re freaking gorgeous Too many people that are in between us You’ve got me going weak in the knees Explain how this all changed on me, please Used to, I’d punch you in the arm Saying that you cause yourself harm Back on the playground in elementry Ten years later, do you recognize me? You caught me off-guard It’s never been so hard To hide my feelings for you I promise that this is the truth So much has changed now I’ve got to keep this down Word-vomit might be my death Give that face a rest You sit before me and we catch up, now Disbelief is where I sit now Recognize you haven’t changed a bit, but That’s okay ‘cuz I always loved it You’ve grown in height and I see you’ve matured I can’t belive you’re the same freaking turd That would chase me around the school yard Frick, this is so fricking hard You caught me off-guard It’s never been so hard To hide my feelings for you I promise that this is the truth So much has changed now I’ve got to keep this down Word-vomit might be my death Give that face a rest Hands to your eyes, you can’t control it There’s something about you that makes me lose it I don’t think that I can get me through it There’s something about you that makes me lose it Hands to my ears so I cannot hear you I don’t think that I wanna be near you There’s something about you that makes me lose it There’s something about you that makes me lose it You caught me off-guard It’s never been so hard To hide my feelings for you I promise that this is the truth So much has changed now I’ve got to keep this down Word-vomit might be my death Give that face a rest

The River 03:45
There’s the river that flows between us It seperatesand permeates Nothing’s safe anymore It overflows and reaches for more Greedy little fingers made out of moss As our eyes find their gloss There’s nothing to it, this forgetting stuff You say it, but I’ll call your bluff Come on, let it wash away There’s nothing here that will make you stay You’re convinced we’re supposed to be Seperated, but look at me. Come on, let it wash away Pushing away all the pain If we can’t work on this on our own, Then I guess I’ll DIE ALONE I cannot hide that everything’s wrong When it seemed so right all along I’m bruised and battered these rapids won’t quit You won’t help me, though I’ve fallen in. It’s cold as ice and I’m soaked to the bone I watch as you turn to go home Leaving me to drift away But now I am so afraid Come on, let it wash away There’s nothing here that will make you stay You’re convinced we’re supposed to be Seperated, but look at me. Come on, let it wash away Pushing away all the pain If we can’t work on this on our own, Then I guess I’ll DIE ALONE The ground is underneath me now My limbs are slowly waking up It’s time for me to stand my ground Keep this new feeling I’ve found I don’t need you You made me miserable I was never halved It isn’t you who makes me whole Come on, let it wash away There’s nothing here that will make me stay I’m convinced we’re supposed to be Seperated, so listen to me. Come on, let it wash away I have dealt with all my pain If you learn from this on your own, Then I guess you’ll DIE ALONE

For Now 05:23
Sometimes, You can’t look back There’s too much in the way Taking up your space This is Your strength in the making Don’t underestimate It’s never too late You can fight it Even when you fall It’s not a waste of time It’s all in your mind Come on, you can do it. I believe in you You don’t need that crutch Please get up and walk I will be right here And I won’t let you down I won’t let you cry I won’t let you die Just keep breathing for now Keep breathing for now I know I know it’s hard To keep living like this Ignorance is bliss Come on, You can get through this It might not go away But you will find your strength You don’t need that crutch Please get up and walk I will be right here And I won’t let you down I won’t let you cry I won’t let you die Just keep breathing for now Keep breathing for now You Are strong You Are going to get through this I know it I know it I know it I know it You don’t need that crutch Please get up and walk I will be right here And I won’t let you down I won’t let you cry I won’t let you die Just keep breathing for now Keep breathing for now

I hear your concerns They always reach my ears There’s nothing that can pass me when it comes to us The world is all the same All passing up on blame And it falls on us, the ones with old souls We see things so different People don’t take it They think we don’t practice tolerence Well I have had enough I think you have too I’m sick of being so dang see-through Hey, let’s take our dreams and run There’s no reason to stay Behind and cry I won’t let us lose our minds In here we’re so confined They stuck us in a cage As if we’re birds With our useless, broken wings Don’t let them win We won’t let them win This is our war They're gonna hear our side In here we’re so confined They stuck us in a cage As if we’re birds With our useless, broken wings They think we’re useless But we have the guns The guts and the brawns to say no Who do they think they’re fooling? I’m not a part of the mass That swells with their papercuts in hand They’re selfish and cruel Blinded to the famine, Don’t belive in violence, yet they beat us down It’s time to rise up Paint the world with red Look at me, I don’t think this is the end Hey, let’s take our dreams and run There’s no reason to stay Behind and cry I won’t let us lose our minds In here we’re so confined They stuck us in a cage As if we’re birds With our useless, broken wings Don’t let them win We won’t let them win This is our war They're gonna hear our side In here we’re so confined They stuck us in a cage As if we’re birds With our useless, broken wings It’s time to rise up Paint the world with red Look at me, I don’t think this is the end There are people starving And we’re obsessed with ourselves Look at me, I don’t think this is the end There’s so much left to do Let’s paint the world with red Everyone is blue and blind all the time So let’s take our words and run Put our focus somewhere else There’s so much to do and I can’t die knowing that Hey, let’s take our dreams and run There’s no reason to stay Behind and cry I won’t let us lose our minds In here we’re so confined They stuck us in a cage As if we’re birds With our useless, broken wings Don’t let them win We won’t let them win This is our war They're gonna hear our side In here we’re so confined They stuck us in a cage As if we’re birds With our useless, broken wings

Jabberwocky 03:10
There’s a whole world you’ll never see Standing in plain view but they won’t let you breathe Distracted by the Tumtum tree, You forget there’s a Jabberwocky Their secrets lie where you hide Away from all the lies And there you’ll see them stumbling Struggling to recall their lines Explosions around you But they already knew Liars and hypocracy They distract you from the truth There’s a whole world you’ll never see Standing in plain view but they won’t let you breathe Distracted by the Tumtum tree, You forget there’s a Jabberwocky The lights and the music, they’ve got you in a trance Whole body shaking as you move to their will There’s a new meaning to slavery But you knew that, didn’t you? There’s a whole world you’ll never see Standing in plain view but they won’t let you breathe Distracted by the Tumtum tree, You forget there’s a Jabberwocky Their secrets lie where you hide Away from all the lies There’s a new meaning to slavery But you knew that, didn’t you?

Forgotten 03:16
My back was feeling too comfortable Why don’t you stick it with another blade? Those knives of yours sure are shiny I bet you sharpen them in your spare time Hate me again, why don’t you? Hate me again There’s nothing I can say or do That can stop you So stick me again with another blade It seems what I learned has started to fade Maybe I can’t take the pain But it’s you who must remove my stain I left a mark but that’s all I am Against your ribs, your heart it slams With pleasure as you lies allure But it’s you who must endure Hip to hip, we never left eachother’s side Looking at it now, I think it’s all a lie You’re like a wolf baring its teeth, but you’re all bark, and by the end, it stings So many times you’ve broken my trust Guess I haven’t had enough Each time, it’s like I forget So here I come, ready to start again So stick me again with another blade It seems what I learned has started to fade Maybe I can’t take the pain But it’s you who must remove my stain I left a mark but that’s all I am Against your ribs, your heart it slams With pleasure as you lies allure But it’s you who must endure Hate me again, why don’t you? Hate me again There’s nothing I can say or do That can stop you Hate me again, why don’t you? Hate me again Let’s bury the hatchet, let’s burn this coffin Let this be forgotten So stick me again with another blade It seems what I learned has started to fade Maybe I can’t take the pain But it’s you who must remove my stain I left a mark but that’s all I am Against your ribs, your heart it slams With pleasure as you lies allure But it’s you who must endure

Lead me to Your heart Fill these question marks I have so much to say Please don’t turn me away I can see the line where bad meets good I can feel there’s something missing, something wrong I know You’re always with me I know I can’t stand alone There’s something peaceful about you I don’t have to be alone The darkness runs, You’re a shining light I know I can’t stand alone You’re right there through day and night I don’t have to be alone (I don’t have to be alone) They say Your name as if it’s cursed They won’t believe it’s the only way So here I am, hoping for the best Because my emotions need a rest I know You’re always with me I know I can’t stand alone There’s something peaceful about you I don’t have to be alone The darkness runs, You’re a shining light I know I can’t stand alone You’re right there through day and night I don’t have to be alone Slowly, the world rejects You Finding home in a pit of despair Clinging to anything, lashing out at everything But still, I reach up to You, for you live on, that is the truth I know You’re always with me I know I can’t stand alone There’s something peaceful about you I don’t have to be alone The darkness runs, You’re a shining light I know I can’t stand alone You’re right there through day and night I don’t have to be alone I know I can’t stand alone I don’t have to be alone

My Army 02:10
Everybody wants me on the ground hands held up high, no weapons are found There’s too many people so they take me down (There’s too many people so they take me down) This is flesh I do breathe My mind is alive I am my army They’re trying to stop me and to take my brain If this is my death, it will not be in vain Do not believe all the lies that they feed There’s way more to this world than what we see This is flesh I do breathe My mind is alive I am my army One day they will have all of our hands, marking our foreheads, marking our wrists We will not be able to live without it (We will not be able to live without it) This is flesh I do breathe My mind is alive I am my army Perhaps no one will stand at my side But that’s okay cuz I’m holy inside The bullets won’t miss but someone will see I won’t let the enemy inside of me This is flesh I do breathe My mind is alive I am my army This is the way the world’s turning now You say I should turn and bow down. You don’t see the invisible But I see it This is flesh I do breathe My mind is alive I am my army I’ll stand alone Knowing that I’m not Go on, set me free I am my army

I Don't Miss 04:57
Comatose Non-responsive Where were you then? Not beside me Of course you caused Me all this trouble Left me battered As you doubled Took you no time To replace me But then you come back As I was healing Said you’re sorry You promise you’ve changed Say you want me back Never thought you’d crack What do you think that this is It isn’t a game. You shot and you missed I think this is considered trespassing And I promise you I don’t miss These stitches, they aren’t strings to pluck But they’re here all thanks to you In two seconds, you’ll peer down the barrel You won’t rob me again—Because I don’t miss Do you remember When we used to smile The days were so long and The nights were so cold For a while there, I didn’t think I could Recover But I guess I could What do you think that this is It isn’t a game. You shot and you missed I think this is considered trespassing And I promise you I don’t miss These stitches, they aren’t strings to pluck But they’re here all thanks to you In two seconds, you’ll peer down the barrel You won’t rob me again—Because I don’t miss Just try me Don’t doubt me Just try me Don’t touch me Just try me It’s in self-defense Just try me I promise I don’t miss Just try me Don’t doubt me Just try me Don’t touch me Just try me I won't miss What do you think that this is It isn’t a game. You shot and you missed I think this is considered trespassing And I promise you I don’t miss These stitches, they aren’t strings to pluck But they’re here all thanks to you In two seconds, you’ll peer down the barrel You won’t rob me again—Because I don’t miss

There’s too many things that distract me now It seems like there is no way out These hallways are getting tighter And my goals they rise higher Gravity is crushing me My legs have grown far too weak I’ve searched for answers everywhere But here I am nursing my tears I surrender You can have your say I surrender Keep these thoughts at bay I surrender Please stay here with me I surrender Take good care of me Everyone tells me to turn away That that’s not how it’s supposed to be Pretending that they know what’s best When they’re all swinging by their necks This is America, this is the free land Hop on the free ride, it’s okay, we’re dead inside Nothing ever matters ‘les it means something to us If you get nothing out of it, make a rukus I surrender You can have your say I surrender Keep these thoughts at bay I surrender Please stay here with me I surrender Take good care of me Oh, wow, I can’t believe you thought I meant you You in the world and you behind doors You that has a problem that you’re choosing to ignore You who got swept up in the mass just like before You who hides in the dark, you who runs from every spark Terrified of the flames, running from all the pain The whole time I’ve known you, you took the easy route Now you’re angry at me for running my mouth All your wounds are festering, let them air out Don’t give me advice on something you know nothing ‘bout My home is in the clouds and it’s it I wait for But as soon as you can, please walk thorugh that door I surrender This is America, this is the free land I surrender Hop on the free ride, it’s okay, we’re dead inside I surrender Nothing ever matters ‘les it means something to us I surrender If you get nothing out of it, make a rukus I surrender You can have your say I surrender Keep these thoughts at bay I surrender Please stay here with me I surrender Take good care of me
