Here I am again same story, new scenery
I just can’t break out from my anxieties
I look at her and think that she’d be good with me
But I’ll never get the courage just to see
Running in place with no real way for me to know
If I’m making headway or waiting to go
All I know is I can’t make it alone
I know what it has in store for me
You know that I don’t wanna die alone
So why am I here waiting for life to start?
Why am I so scared of this? Come on, let’s go
Confident for once, happy with this show
Get out and play so that now everyone can know
This is the dream with much more to follow
Running in place with no real way for me to know
If I’m making headway or waiting to go
All I know is I can’t make it alone
I know what it has in store for me
You know that I don’t wanna die unknown
So why am I here waiting for life to start?
Running in place with no real way for me to know
If I’m making headway or waiting to go
All I know is I can’t make it alone
I know what it has in store for me
I hope that I don’t sound too overblown
But why am I here waiting for life to start?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for!

As a kid I thought that life was always this way
Constant sense of growth, new adventures every day
But I think that system lied, how could I foresee?
This stupid dead end job is draining the life from me
Cuz I don’t wanna do anything else but play this music
I don’t wanna go anywhere without you girl
I don’t wanna do anything else but play this music
I don’t think that it’s fair the way things have to be
Passions put on hold to make less than stellar wage
Creatively put through the wringer stuck in my mental cage
Is that awful stench I smell my future rotting away?
If I never get out this place just might be my grave
Cuz I don’t wanna do anything else but play this music
I don’t wanna go anywhere without you girl
I don’t wanna do anything else but play this music
I don’t think that it’s fair the way things have to be
I love living as much as the next guy, but there has to be another way
Just quit and find something new to do
Will I ever escape from this hoard of complacence
I am a working stiff, no, I’m the living dead
I don’t wanna do anything else but play this music
I don’t wanna go anywhere without you girl
I don’t wanna do anything else but play this music
I don’t think that it’s fair…
I don’t wanna do anything else but play this music
I don’t wanna go anywhere without you girl
I don’t wanna do anything else but play this music
I don’t think that it’s fair the way things have to be
The way things have to be
The way things have to be
The way things have to be

From the start you’ve always been
A rival, at least in your head
Picking fights with snide remarks
Behind your back the trash talk starts
I’ve know you always hated me
A triangle you only see
My fault I let it get to me
Ruined something left unseen
C.B.
Get wrecked
C.B.
Get Bent
I guess it’s nice to know I’m right
With what you really did that night
And in a way it’s validating
Since I know you’re always hating
Self esteem’s already low
And now you’ve sent me in the throes
I know it’s cuz you’re insecure
Grow up someday and act mature
C.B.
Get wrecked
C.B.
Get Bent
Have you ever been in a position
Where somebody royally screwed you over?
Well this song goes out to all the douchebags
Who can’t take a hint
C.B.
Get wrecked
C.B.
Get Bent

Common Ground

Even from day one I could plainly see
How you felt about me
I don’t know what I did
That made you feel the need to push me away
I have to know, woah
Why it has to be this way
I know that you don’t like me at all
But I still think we can get along
I know that you don’t like me at all
But I still think we can find some common ground
As time went on it kept up in this way
You know I really want to stay
I know I like you
I just don’t understand, is it time to let go
I have to know, woah
Why it has to be this way
I know that you don’t like me at all
But I still think we can get along
I know that you don’t like me at all
But I still think we can find some common ground
I have to know, woah
Why it has to be this way
I know that you don’t like me at all
But I still think we can get along
I know that you don’t like me at all
But I still think we can find some common ground
Find some common ground
Find some common ground

This year hasn’t been too great for me
I seem to be losing track of what makes me be
The things I couldn’t wait for are just another day
My thoughts and my ambitions are things that I betray
This is really scaring me
This year hasn’t been too great for me
Nothing about it is my fault, conveniently
We’re not vampires living in the dark
Move back into the light and maybe find that spark
This year hasn’t turned out how I thought it would be
This room has become my new best friend
The comfort that it brings is all I comprehend
At this rate all my joy may fade away
I feel so stuck, at this rate I don’t think that I can stay
This is really scaring me
This year hasn’t been too great for me
Nothing about it is my fault, conveniently
We’re not vampires living in the dark
Move back into the light and maybe find that spark
This year hasn’t turned out how I thought it would be

You are mine
You are out of line
You are (not) alone
You can (not) advance
You can (not) redo
You can (not) replace
I never wanted it
I always sell myself out
But you know this
What’s the point anyhow
You are fine
You are out of time
You are (not) alone
You can (not) advance
You can (not) redo
You can (not) replace
I never wanted it
I always sell myself out
But you know this
What’s the point anyhow
I never wanted it
I always sell myself out
But you know this
What’s the point anyhow

I think I let you down
Since you don’t come around
Clear the dust out from my brain
Are you thinking of me?
I might forget some things sometimes
But I promise that I’ll try
Try to not forget
I might not always follow through
Please know that it was never you
I’ll try calling now and then
Hey I gotta know, how much can I blow
Before you go out and find somebody new?
Get off my butt, stuck in a rut
My case is feeling open and shut
No sense of self preservation
I might forget some things sometimes
But I promise that I’ll try
Try to not forget
I might not always follow through
Please know that it was never you
I’ll try calling now and then
Prioritize the ones who stay
I’ll make time for everyone
At least someday
Connections crumble, fading
At no fault of you
What will you do about it now?

Nothing Left For Me
02:13

|

It feels like nothing will ever be fine
And nothing is ever gonna change my mind
It seems the whole world is a wreck
But I won’t settle for second best
If pain is the only thing I see
It feels like there’s nothing left for me
Nothing will ever be fine
And nothing is ever gonna change my mind
They say that pride always comes before a fall
So put it aside for the sake of us all
Are simple days not coming back?
Keep what you want to hear, throw out the rest
If pain is the only thing I see
It feels like there’s nothing left for me
The whole world’s a burning wreck
But I can’t settle for second best
If I can fight uncertainty
Then maybe there’s something left for me

I have a thing I’ve got to
I have a thing I’ve got to do
And I’ve got to get it done today
Oh man where do I start?
That’s always been the hardest part
It always puts me farther back, time and time again
Wait I should focus now
Attention span shrinking how
Will I ever get this done on time?
Finish now or then, how can I choose?
At this point what else can I lose, Oh
I have a thing I’ve got to
I have a thing I’ve got to do
And I’ve got to get it done today
I have a thing I’ve got to
I have a thing I’ve got to do
And I’ve got to get it done today
Oh crap an hour’s past
No way time moved that fast
Put on some music that won’t distract, let’s see how long it lasts
World waiting at my fingertips
Just waiting for my will to slip
Passing time that I can’t spare again
Finish now or then, how can I choose?
At this point what else can I lose, Oh
I have a thing I’ve got to
I have a thing I’ve got to do
And I’ve got to get it done today
I have a thing I’ve got to
I have a thing I’ve got to do
And I’ve got to get it done today
Finish now or then, how can I choose?
At this point what else can I lose, Oh
I have a thing I’ve got to
I have a thing I’ve got to do
And I’ve got to get it done today
I have a thing I’ve got to
I have a thing I’ve got to do
And I’ve got to get it done today…
Maybe next May…
Well someday

Losing It
04:52

When is it my fault?
My mind is never clear
Your abilities
I revere
Have you lost it yet?
Let’s regret
How do you know
When you lose a little piece of your soul
How does it show
When you lose a little bit of self control?
How do you know?
Bummer all around
Felt it push and pull
Silence loud as sound
Become dull
Have you lost it yet?
Let’s regress
How do you know
When you lose a little piece of your soul?
How does it show
When you lose a little bit of self control?
How do you know?
And how long will it be?
How long
Till we see
When we truly listen and believe
How do you know
When we lose a little piece of your soul?
How does it show
When you lose a little bit of self control?
How do you know?

I can’t believe what it’s come to
What can I do to impress you
We’re singing out but I don’t know
If it ends up sounding like the same old song to you
When all the kids sang woah
Woah
Woah
All the kids sang woah
Now I think those days
Have all gone away
Maybe it’s best that way
Nothing to do but burnout with you
All I want is the truth
The motivation comes and goes
So cheers to "almost", belt it out, and cling on to youth
When all the kids sang woah
Woah
Woah
All the kids sang woah
Now I think those days
Have all gone away
Maybe it’s best that way
When all the kids sang woah
Woah
Woah
All the kids sang woah
Now I think those days
Have all gone away
Maybe it’s best that way

How We Fall
04:29
|
|
||
No one to bear witness
Can’t speak to what is true
Blocked from due process
Dissidents subdued
We’ve made some grave mistakes
All because we couldn’t wait
Everyone’s so full of hate
Let’s see how long it takes
Before we all go
So this is how we fall?
Ignorant of it all
Civility for naught
Forget what’s been fought
This is how we fall
Ignorant of it all
All hope may be lost
More and more we rot
So what can I say
I’ve done it to myself
Too long have we played
With volatile health
Too afraid of what’s been done
To say something, this can’t be won
For years of downfall left unsung
With nowhere left to run
Before we all go
So this is how we fall?
Ignorant of it all
Civility for naught
Forget what’s been fought
This is how we fall
Ignorant of it all
All hope may be lost
More and more we rot
If cooler heads prevail
Conspiracies will fail
I think it’s too far gone
Soon there may be none
No matter what’s the truth
There’s more at stake than you
What can you do or say
To save another day
How we fall
How we fall
So this is how we fall?
Ignorant of it all
Civility for naught
Forget what’s been fought
This is how we fall
Ignorant of it all
All hope may be lost
More and more we rot

I wish I could be
Anywhere but here, always stuck in my misery
What now could I change
To help keep me from going so totally insane?
I feel like I’m going crazy
Is there something else to be?
So why?
Why can't you see?
See that all of these
False starts are killing me
So close
And yet it seems
Seems like all of these
Cruel jokes are just for me
I think I'm a wreck
But how much of this is just inside my head?
Are my thoughts a mess
Or could it come down to my bleak environment?
I feel like I’m going crazy
Is there something else to be?
So why?
Why can't you see?
See that all of these
False starts are killing me
So close
And yet it seems
Seems like all of these
Cruel jokes are just for me
I feel like I’m going crazy
Stuck on repeat almost daily
All these songs now sound so samey
Is there nothing left to say?

It’s finally the day, no more in the way
Here, this is the final play
It’s still not feeling real, now how will I deal
Away from here
We’re ready to move on, oh you know
I’ve been here for so long, surviving all
Through trials, fears, and come what may
I’m leaving here today
While some things may change, remaining would feel strange
Still, these memories remain
There’ve been some rainy days, we made it anyway
Even if we’re scared
We’re ready to move on, oh you know
I’ve been here for so long, surviving all
Through trials, fears, and come what may
I’m leaving here today
These friends may go away
Only time may tell
Growing up might be tough
But you know by now
We’re ready to move on, oh you know
I’ve been here for so long, surviving all
Through trials, fears, and come what may
I’m leaving here today
