good luck

why did you wanna try?
did you think you'd get a lot from me too?
no, you didn't see right
no, i don't want to waste your time
wish i could see right through your mind
i've been waiting up
for you just to taste enough
why am i breaking through these tired eyes?
what makes you sit back in denial?
this obligation feels on trial
all while i get my head back on straight
thinking of the reasons i lie in wait
complications bending me
i know i'm gonna break
this operations opened you
but it's all been for your sake

at home by myself
03:45
|
|||
|
i don't do well in a crowd
i wince if things get too loud
i hate myself, can't be proud
i thought you left me at home by myself
i think i think too damn much
just shut the door lock me up
i've waited long for your touch
no you're holding me down
i know it's hard to see
there's something broke in me
i wish i could be free
but this demon's holding me
i could confide in myself
if i wasn't so overwhelmed
i think i put me through hell
and there's no coming back
i wish i wasn't unwell
it hurts a lot and i know you can tell
if i had a sould i could sell
i wouldn't be able to give this curse away
i know it's hard to see
there's something broke in me
i wish i could be free
but this demon's holding me

haunting me
04:22
|
|||
|
i want my breath to smell like whiskey
memories of wishing you would kiss me
in the light of night, making sure you're alright
wish i had a million reasons but i still have no fight
i want long nights and short fights
haunting the way i sleep through the course of my life
i want day dreams and sad themes
cursing me for walking out on the scene
i'm left thinking of nothing but you
proving right all the things you thought were true
i'm a waste, i'm a mess, i'm not alright
if i erased all our memories, i may just sleep at night

wait for
02:33
|
|||
|
you take what you give
you're done being soft
you wait for the end
you're done being lost
hold out for a friend
you want to make sense
on the receiving end
live in the past tense
|

lifting you up
03:12
|
|||
|
i want to know what i'm here for
losing sleep is just a fear for
taking you out, words from my mouth
never trusting what i'm lost with
now im taking you around
lift your feet up off the ground
when there's no one there to care
when the weight's too much to bear
think of you when, dream of my sins
lost in thought with what i'm caught with
not much to offer from myself
what i know is i can't stop myself
now im taking you around
lift your feet up off the ground
when there's no one there to care
when the weight's too much to bear
|

throwaway
02:26
|
|||
|
it's kind creepy just being alone
felt more comfortable being on the phone
i'm out of touch and i'm feeling like it shows
you being close is just keeping me on my toes
i'm kind lucky but i'm filled up with fear
feel fucking weird and now i'm shedding a tear
you're way up front and i'm just holding the rear
feels like i'm dreaming just having you near
here's why i'm shy
don't want you to let go of me
here's why i'm shy
don't want you to let go of me
|
||||
7. |
take it all away
03:48
|
|||
|
i've got so much i can give
but there's only so much that's left
'cause you know exactly how
to take it all away
no one knows that there ever was
someone left who could make me buzz
now it hurts just like this cut
'cause you know how to take it all away
maybe you take pleasure leaving me here
still entrapped after all these years
calming down, now i'm off the beers
but you take it all away
tried to salvage what's left of me
tried not to live in the memories
you break me down, now i'm all disease
so you take it all away
|

what we're doing
03:25
|
|||
|
who's gonna wait to see me again
when i'm lost in the way i am in the end?
no one knows what we're doing
lost alone, the comfort has been proven
make our home in the heart of our choosing
i already know you're not one worth losing
who's gonna know the way that i feel?
on my way to find out what's real
in my own kind of way i feel like i know
what's behind the kind of things that you show
no one knows what we're doing
lost alone, the comfort has been proven
make our home in the heart of our choosing
i already know you're not one worth losing
|

hold up
it's not like the end of everything
it's not like the things said when you were mean
those don't mean anything
let go
but hold on to something that you know
if you call me
don't think it means anything
i'm running out of friends
don't know why they see me through this lens
if i hold out
it might not mean anything
|
||||
10. |
freeze frame
02:36
|
|||
|
wait there's nothing left for me to say
hey, i hope you have a really nice day
hey, i caught you in a freeze frame
i hope you figure out a way to run away
hold out for someone else to make you new
i can't be the only one, even if you choose
takes a lot just to make my heart move
for me there's just never been anything left to lose
|
||||
11. |
||||
|
always on the mend
wish i could have been
there's nothing left to say
'cause it's always been this way
|
||||
12. |
i've been thinking
04:45
|
|||
|
who's to say what you've been feeling
i cannot see where you have gone to, without me too
there's just not enough time to see this through
i've been hoping you would see this through
there's no other way to hold you to the truth
who's to say what i've been thinking
there's just no other way of escaping
i know the way your heart's been aching
i've been hoping you would see this through
there's no other way to hold you to the truth
