Please Don't Walk Away
03:09
|
|||
You sit there silently
Cut your final tie to me
One last goodbye without a hint of regret
And as we’re parting ways
I look back and quietly
Whisper the final words I wish I had said
Please don’t walk away
Please don’t walk away
Just please don’t walk away
Please don’t walk away
Silence is killing me
I’m refusing to believe
You never think about the nights that we spent
Vacant lots where we would park
Sparks exploding in the dark
The moments that I know I’ll never forget
Please don’t walk away
Please don’t walk away
Just please don’t walk away
Please don’t walk away
Let me spill my guts to you
You don’t have to say a thing back to me
I just need some time to prove
That what I feel inside isn’t crazy
Every second we’re apart
I think of endless words I wish I could say
Let me spill my guts to you
Just please don’t walk away

Empty (Without Me)
03:06
|
|||
(Were we doomed from the start)
Was this broke pitch-black apartment
Dark enough to change your heart and make you go
To leave me cold and on my own
While we felt the tension in us grow
The horrible nights we spent
Knowing it’s too late to make amends
Our history is dead
You pulled me into a void of nothing
Vacancy while you made your peace
I’m stranded out between the edge and something
Strong enough to seal the hole you leave
I hope you feel empty without me
Did you mean to replace
All of the moments that we wasted and rewind
Play back your life and hope you’ll find
A fucking better state of mind
And how does it taste knowing
He’s just another off-brand version of me
Do you lie awake and contemplate
Why you can’t find relief?
You pulled me into a void of nothing
Vacancy while you made your peace
I’m stranded out between the edge and something
Strong enough to seal the hole you leave
I hope you feel empty without me
I’m wondering
Were we doomed from the start
Was this all just a part of a manic state
Brought to a bitter descent
Hope the words we said will fade
You can try to run away
But it won’t solve the mess you made
The pain is permanently stained onto you
When you look at our remains
As the time disintegrates
Will you finally see this all from my view

Sulk
03:32
|
|||
I can’t escape this feeling
It’s eating me alive as I stare at the ceiling
I’m high again
So I won’t feel a thing
My mind’s beginning to decay
And everyone keeps telling me that I’ll be okay
But this misery
It’s fucking killing me
And it feels like I’m losing my mind
Just wasting my time
As I sulk around pretending that everything’s fine
Where is my silver lining?
I’ve got to let go and try to leave this all behind me
Guess I’m calling it quits
Losing touch with reality
I can’t get a grip on anything
I need stability
This is all a facade
I’ll hide how I feel
Pretend I’m someone I’m not
For the sake of you
Got nothing left to lose
And it feels like I’m losing my mind
Just wasting my time
As I sulk around pretending that everything’s fine
Where is my silver lining?
I’ve got to let go and try to leave this all behind me
So lost inside my own head
Sat in a parking lot at 3AM
And tried to escape every word that you said
I dwell on things I can’t change
Wishing that I could turn another page
It feels like the world’s crashing down on me
I failed everything and everyone
And the worst of it has yet to come
I just hate myself too much to love anyone
And yeah I may be young but I’m not naïve
So I’ll keep screaming my lungs out ‘cause it’s plain to see
Things will never be the same
And I’ve got no one but myself to blame
And it feels like I’m losing my mind
Just wasting my time
As I sulk around pretending that everything’s fine

Stuck In The Wake
03:27
|
|||
Light drained from your face
Pacing back and forth
You feel it begin to sink in deep
You’re dragging it on
I hate to see you this way
Don't think it’s all your fault when seams start to fray
I know this stings
You’re lost in it all
But I won’t let you take the fall
Stuck in the wake of heartbreak
Of heartbreak
Stuck in the wake of heartbreak
Of heartbreak
You’re missing the chase
I keep watching you make the same mistake
Weighed down by what you’ll never resolve
Things aren’t gonna change
If you won’t help yourself
No one else here can save you
Give this what you’ve got before it’s gone
She’s just leading you along
Stuck in the wake of heartbreak
Of heartbreak
Stuck in the wake of heartbreak
Of heartbreak
Stuck in the wake of heartbreak
Of heartbreak
Stuck in the wake of heartbreak
Of heartbreak

Watching you fall
Down to your knees
No more pleasantries from me
I’m watching you crawl
And hide from your problems
When you can’t solve them
Ironic that’s your fault
And it’s hard for me to see
Anything of value here worth keeping
(Believe me)
That your empty stare hides nothing underneath
Since you left I’m feeling free
Toss your dignity away
You refuse to make a change
Let’s get one thing straight
I won’t associate with deadweight
You’ll get no pity from me
If you believe
That you’re laced with tragedy
Own up to your mistakes
Or you will take them to your grave
Your god complex
Will set you back
And bury you in shame
So stop biting your tongue
Disown the path you walked along
Admit you’re wrong
So toss your dignity away
You refuse to make a change
Let’s get one thing straight
I won’t associate with deadweight
You’ll get no pity from me
If you believe
That you’re laced with tragedy
You're laced with tragedy
(So stop biting your tongue)
(So stop biting your tongue)
This is the moment that we sever our ties
I’m blocking you out till you’re the last thing on my mind

|

I’ve been wasting my time
Repeating all of the signs
And I don’t know what to do
Cast a shade on this light
To keep me out of your life
Your words replay in my mind on a loop
Then I saw your face
I froze in place
The essence of you is consuming me
I need space to clear my head
And erase every word you said
Every thought I have of you
Feels like salt inside my wounds
I’m losing faith
I’m hanging by a thread
Please let this end
I can’t carry this weight
Feel its pressure everyday
Since you left behind all that we knew
Cold and bitter to taste
All the nights we replaced
With a lonely city street view
This was everything
Now you’re out of my reach
I’m watching you sink through the ground beneath
I need space to clear my head
And erase every word you said
Every thought I have of you
Feels like salt inside my wounds
I’m losing faith
I’m hanging by a thread
Please let this end
I can’t forgive
I can’t forget
Swallowing pill after pill to get you out of my head
I still feel this constant dread
But I won’t let you in again

Erase Your Existence
02:53
|
|||
Heard that you found someone new
While walking home in the dark
Nearly tore me apart
Is it true
The street lights flicker and spark
As I’m wandering lost and confused
The day I watched you depart
Was your final remark an excuse or the truth
When you said we needed solitude
Barely making it through
This feeling’s hard to contain
I’m not ready to face that
I’ve always been replaceable to you
So I’ll pretend it’s not true
I’ll be keeping my distance
To erase your existence
I want to resist this
But all I can think of is you
I’m finding ways to pass the time
While I wait for your reply but
There isn’t a song I can write that will bring back the feeling of you and I

Something Left To Save
03:02
|
|||
Can you justify the way you cast your life in such a dreary light
Someday you’ll realize it’s up to you to realign
Take it slow
Reflect on all this time that you’ve spent on your own
If you look around then it will show
You can sell your misery
But it won’t bring you much relief
I hope you see the light before it starts to fade
While there’s something left to save
Let’s redefine the way you live your life
Pushing all your thoughts aside
‘Cause if you live a lie
You’ll waste all your time searching
Through all the disarray
To find what still remains of the person
That you tried to erase
You can sell your misery
But it won’t bring you much relief
I hope you see the light before it starts to fade
While there’s something left to save
You can spend your life in solitude
If that’s the path you choose
But you will throw away all you could pursue
You can sell your misery
But it won’t bring you much relief
I hope you see the light before it starts to fade
You can sell your misery
But it won’t bring you much relief
I hope you see the light before it starts to fade
While there’s something left to save

Trying not to get my hopes up
‘Cause I’m bound to get let down again
And lately I’ve been feeling so stuck
Wonder when I’ll be the one who moves ahead
Anxiety gets the best of me
Between the pills and therapy I’m spent
I hope that I can find some clarity
Before I start to fall in this descent
So if you were to up and leave
I would understand
Wish I wasn’t so afraid
Of making one little mistake I don’t expect
My mind is rotted and decayed
From all the days that I spent in this disconnect
The life you see inside your screens
Is not the same behind the scenes
In fact
(I’m such a nervous wreck with nothing left but selfishness)
The way that I have been perceived is
Something that I’m starting to reject
(But it’s starting to conquer me)
If you were to up and leave
I would understand
I’m not begging for sympathy
Just need you to know the kind of person that I am
We’re drowning in the silence
There’s no point to me confiding
As I watch you leave and make up an excuse
This conversation was one-sided
But I don’t really mind it
As you walk away and fade out of view
Trying not to get my hopes up
‘Cause I’m bound to get let down again
And lately I’ve been feeling so stuck
Wonder when I’ll be the one who moves ahead

Gaining a new perspective
On the way it feels to be back home
Life is nothing like it used to be
Unsure if I believe I can make it on my own
Now that I’m grown
I miss the days when I would wander with nowhere to go
If I escape then I’ll be struggling to stay afloat
Caught in-between fate and the simple life I used to lead
This is home
This is me
And I’m afraid I will lose myself
When I finally make my way out
All that I need is nearly out of reach
I always thought that I would be the one to walk away
Never regret the choice I made
But all my fears reappeared
While I was wasting the year
Being forced to isolate and overthink
It’s out of my control
If I stay I know I’ll slowly decompose
This is home
This is me
And I’m afraid I will lose myself
When I finally make my way out
All that I need is nearly out of reach
So I know that I was meant to leave
Life will never be as simple as it was back in my youth
And I can’t compromise or bide my time
I need to face the truth
That although I’m feeling unsure
I won’t be anchored down anymore
And I’ll gladly pay the price
‘Cause this is time I can’t afford
This is time I can’t afford
And I can’t waste it anymore

High

You’ve outgrown
The girl I know
It’s time to face the truth
And if this ends
I’m all alone again
But am I better off with you
Surround yourself with friends
To help you tune out all the loneliness
While I reminisce in solitude
How did we slip into this decline
Of transient relief
Just when I think that you’re at my side
You drift away and leave
And can you see it inside of my eyes
I’m unhappy
It’s plain to see
You’d rather be high than be with me
How did we slip into this decline
(You’d rather be high than be with me)
Just when I think that you’re at my side
(You’d rather be high than be with me)
And can you see it inside of my eyes
(You’d rather be high than be with me)
It’s plain to see
You’d rather be high than be with me

A Bitter Descent
03:18
|
|||
Feel like a prisoner trapped inside of my own skin
Feel like a failure for all the time that I’m wasting
I’m walking home alone
Climb five flights of stairs to this broken home
Where I’m constantly reminded of
Mistakes I can never let go
It’s pushing me over the edge
Praying I will make it out alive
As I descend
I’m thinking back to a better time
When I was still young and I felt so alive
Now I’m struggling to realize
That things have changed
It’s too overwhelming
The thoughts that the devil tries to sell me
Please someone tell me
That life won’t always look this gray
It’s pushing me over the edge
Praying I will make it out alive
As I descend
The farther I fall
The harder it gets
To pull myself out of the thoughts in my head
They’ve swallowed me whole
As I finally fall to my bitter descent
(As I finally fall to my bitter descent
Things have changed
Things have changed)

All anyone talks about is letting go
But they’re all broke and stoned and I’m starting to lose control
And why should I forget the things that made me grow
It's nice to know that no one ever gave a damn if I made it home
Everybody just keeps telling me to give up everything
That every word I say is meaningless
It's just something that I sing about but no one listens
'Cause no one gives a damn about me
It's time that I stop overthinking
‘Cause this who I am supposed to be
Times are changing and soon you’ll see a different side of me
I know for certain this will be worth it
I’ve figured out everything has a purpose
There's always someone out there who'll tear you down
And make you feel ashamed
But I will stand my ground
They're just another person in my way
And here's food for thought if you can even fathom
Maybe you're the one who's missing out on
Everything life has to offer
Your misery is all your fault
(All your fault)
I know for certain this will be worth it
I’ve figured out everything has a purpose
I'm forgetting the things that make me feel empty
And I'm starting to find my way everyday
I’m standing my ground and I'll fight till I break
I know for certain this will be worth it
I’ve figured out everything has a purpose
Everything has a purpose

Betray A Friend
03:04
|

How would you betray a friend
If you had to let them go
One day you’ll understand the circumstance
Was out of your control
And how do you betray a friend
Who was always there for you
Now only lies remain
As time decays will you reveal the truth
3 AM waking up in cold sweats
Trying hard to tell myself that you deserve this
And I’m contemplating what to do
‘Cause I’m the one that has to
Face the crowd and tell the story
Stay composed and keep on moving
‘Cause I am not the victim
Yeah you dragged me into this
Found guilty as charged
You’re hiding the scars but I know
You’re losing your self control
Left to carry the weight of
Haunting mistakes that you made
You’ve got no one else to blame
Hang your head in shame
And face the consequence
This is your fall from grace
Far too late to make amends
You act so helpless
But selfishly you bite your tongue
Blood seeping down into your lungs
Until you fucking choke
Found guilty as charged
You’re hiding the scars but I know
You’re losing your self control
Left to carry the weight of
Haunting mistakes that you made
You’ve got no one else to blame
How do you betray a friend
When there’s nothing left to show
You’re all but strangers now
It's time to let go
Found guilty as charged
You’re hiding the scars but I know
You’re losing your self control
Left to carry the weight of
Haunting mistakes that you made
You’ve got no one else to blame
