Way's I Shouldn't Be

it was the first day that the panic washed away
along with the sunset, the weak ends were replaced
i put myself through a long year just to see who i became
and nothing will ever, no i’ll never be the same
i built my world on a landscape to invite the masquerade
hoping i was a subject by design to make a change
i put myself at a distance just to see if you would stay
but if no one will listen then what difference does it make?
i need a little clarity; can anybody out there hear me?
i’m searching for a place that’s in between where i’ve been and where i want to be
i’m sick of living in this make-believe; i don’t know how to shake this feeling
i can’t resist the weight of gravity, i’m caught up in ways i shouldn’t be
we’re all just fighting for something better than a sickness we can’t see
did this life take me for granted cause i’m not sure what i need
we all want to get better, what is wrong with me?
we all want to get better, please don’t lose your faith in me

I'm Okay

play me like your favorite song
on repeat while you need me, just a face to the feeling
bleed slow sweet diary
i’m a clot in your heartstrings, bet you’re sad that you found me
here’s a secret you can keep to haunt your memory
i’m okay if you’re okay
fill your head with fantasies that start and end with me
i’m okay, yeah i’m okay
just kids never ready for this
growing up isn’t easy in a world make-believing
paint me a mistake you forgot
i’m a crack on the sidewalk, breaking backs but never getting caught
since we met i’ve done all i can to forget
there was something there but you never cared
in the end i’d put myself through hell again
cause i like the way that you say my name

Side Effects

sometimes i wish i didn’t get out of my bed
so i can watch the world burn in my head
back and forth in between my demons
i can’t make a point without reason
she was the image of my summer
i knew that better days would come
small talk and bedroom walls, in troubled times we long for fall
painting color over winter’s empty face
so fix me quietly, cover holes with silent dreams
maybe in the morning we’ll forget that we were ever really here
let’s talk about the things we need
you’re positive the energy that’s filling me comes in between
the places that we go kept me from growing old
but you can’t stop the world from spinning
we got lost in selfish living
summer sex and cigarettes, the nights that lead to side effects
i know one day i will forget the small things for my belonging
tell me that it’s okay
we can start over again

I Melt With You
02:56
|

take me back to a time when i had every reason to hold on and fight
all the hope i saw in your eyes made me feel like i was doing something right
remember when you said that we could die like this
got lost in the moment; such temporary bliss
it takes a better man to look passed the shit that’s in my head
so i’ll bury myself and wait for you instead
set fire to the world behind but never left to say goodbye
got caught in all your lies, stuck a dagger in my back with your name inscribed
should i be relieved when your questions don’t make sense to me
i can fall asleep but the moonlights just a promise i can’t keep
don’t say i will ever be fine

Fireworks
03:12
|
|||
|
some days i’m scared to be awake
some night i leave the light on
sick poetry i lean on to realize we should think twice
wasting life away on rooftops throwing cigarettes to watch the embers fly
no i don’t want to let go, these things aren’t making sense anymore
jaded; waking up on your best friend’s floor
we’re naked, still drunk from the night before
i’ll cut ties away from all my friends
so they won’t even miss me when i’m dead
you mean everything to me
take away the pills that help me when i’m weak
you found a way to make me bleed
don’t say you’re sorry
we burned like fireworks
we took a one-way train for a getaway
and we’ll sing, “was it our time to go?”
no
