You know I always second guess.
Feel the weight upon my chest.
I’ll never be
Anything more than this.
What else have I missed?
Like when we were kids
And it all
It all made sense.
I’ve drifted off to see.
You’re the compass pointing me
Home.
I’ll spend my time
Tracing your lines
You kept me alive
Even just for one night
Reciting nursery rhymes
Till we wither and die
I don’t know where I went
If it helps just pretend
I was somewhere warmer than here
And I wish
I could get those years back
Nothing good ever lasts
But I’m trying
I’m trying my best
My engine’s failing
Stalling out
I’ve been on empty
Since we
Left town
Wait for me
To leave
It’s the only thing I keep
Close to me.
What happens next
Is a mystery
Take it in (x2)
We’re all here (x2)
We told you, we told you
You’re going home, you’re going home

We don’t say goodbye anymore
We turn away
Turn the page
A brand new day.
I’ll stop believing
Stop pretending that everything
Will be okay
But you’ll push through
My stubborn ways
Guide me straight
Keep me safe
I haven’t been the same.
All along
I was broken as can be
I was searching for relief
And the calm
Before the storm rolls in
Let the games begin
As my hope fades thin
I’ll admit that I’m wrong
Finally, see clear
The world in front of me
It leaves us all in tears
Torn apart
Left to rot away
Behind the frame
We haven’t been the same
I’ll let you down
As long as I’m alive
And I will keep
Everything inside
(Repeat chorus)
I’ll follow
My own two feet
To be at peace
With you and only you.

I went inside
And you weren’t there
These shades of white
Cannot compare
I felt alive
Too much to bear
You recognize that
And I’m aware
It’s too much to bear
I stand here like I’m not hurt at all
I’ll take the pain like I was wrong
Just tired cause the journeys long
Will I ever be okay again?
I don’t know
Eat me away
Poke holes in my lungs
And fill them up with smoke
Cause at the end of the day
There’s nothing I can do for you
To take your pain away
I found peace
But it wasn’t good enough
The chaos keeps me grounded
Like a shadow to a ghost
And if you must
Offer any help
Please move on to someone else

I’ll admit defeat
If you’re honest with me
I won’t give you grief
When you ask me to leave
I’m a burnt-out light
That needs replacing
They’re moving on without me
Carefully
I leave the room
Hope no one’s noticing
Everyone
Will become a memory

Celebrating in Ryan’s back yard
I wanted this to be a night to remember
But now
I’m drunk
And throwing up
Open the back door
Find us buzzed and high
You can’t ask us why
We’re just living our best lives
Escaping our day to day
Mapping out our own way
Learning how to live our lives
And taking our sweet time
I don’t work tomorrow
And I just got paid
Let’s grab a drink and swallow
All the stresses of the day
Tom’s finally home for the weekend
We called Jake and he’s on his way
And now
It feels
Okay
Keep my memory safe and sound
And I’ll always be around
And I’ll always be around
This is real
This is not forever
I guess I’ll stick around
I can barely stand up
Believe me when I say
I guess I’ll stick around
I’ll see you in the next few months
Hold on to everyone
I guess
I’ll stick
Around

Maybe things aren’t meant to last
Still have one foot in the past
Holding
Onto
Everything you ever said to me
But now my hands are burning
It’s late my visions blurry
Waiting forever
And ever
And ever
I wish I was
Better for you
But I know
I'm no good
Far from great
I'm worth hating
And I don't know
How you can stand me
Far from grace
And it makes me feel bad
That you still love me
Over and over again I fall
Into the same old habits, I call
Anyone who's ever shown me
The slightest semblance of caring for me
Constant reassurance
Is all I need to burn this
Replace regret with relaxation
This conversation
Needs an explanation
I never know
What’s hurting inside you
The light from the stained glass
Reflecting beside you
I never know
What’s hurting inside you
I’m waiting
forever
And ever
And ever.....

It makes no sense to me
Why we, bury, ourselves,
So deep, in worry
And I can’t find my way,
Back home, go home
You’re drunk, and I
Wanna be alone
Safe and sound, you’ll find me
Trailing from our memories
Don’t hold back, I’m forgetting
Everything you ever saw in me
Safe and sound you’ll find me
Fucking up our memories
Don’t hold back from deleting
Any hope for me
I’m a fly on a wall
You’re a flower that’s blooming
Could never compete
But you made me complete
I’m lost and alone
We’ll never find home
You guide me away from
The world that I’ve known
So tortured, but I would do it all again
It was worth it but I wish you were still my friend
I could never hate you
Regret nothing at all
Even though I tried to save you
Safe and sound you’ll find me
Fucking up our memories
Don’t hold back from deleting
Any hope for me
I’m a fly on a wall
You’re a flower that’s blooming
Could never compete
But you made me complete
I’m lost and alone
We’ll never find home
You guide me away from
The world that I’ve known

Just for a moment
I want to feel again
To be with all my friends
Without trying to pretend
That I’m alright
That it’s okay
That all of me has blown away
I left you all an empty man
To fill in my place
When does it get better?
Is it after a drink or two?
Either way, I’m gonna lose
I hate myself more than you do
Don’t let me fool you
Underneath these tears and sweat
I’m waiting for the clock to strike ten
So I can go
Home and rest
I’m a fire that won't go out
Spreading from house to house
Burn it all to the ground
Without a trace of slowing down
The roof starts caving in
All the memories on this couch
Could tell you stories of their own
But I’d prefer to let them go
I forgot exactly who I am
Or was
Or will ever be
These past few years
Have worn me down
To the bone
My heart has lost connection
To his home
For what it’s worth
Nothing is set in stone
Well I’m empty
But at least
They're happy.

Life is only as good as we make it
And all of what I am was wasted
I pass reflections
Of a man
I don’t recognize
You have a heart like a lion
And I’m worried
That I’m not what you need
I’d like to tell you that I’m fine
But we both know that I’m not
These beers go down like water
I’m still just like my father
And just like him
I’ll never change
I’ve spent the years
Drowning out
All the noise in the background
I didn’t know
We left you out
You are the rain
I am the drought
The flowers grow right where you stand
I’m trying to be a better man
The colors always start to fade
I’m hoping you still feel the same
I’m the filthiest I’ve ever been
And I don’t know how it began
I’ve been crossing lines
And counting signs
Trying to figure out where I should land
Now it’s cold upon my floor
I’ve been tricked to think that I’m worth more
But I’m not; I’m useless
I’m empty at my core
Stuck between what’s wrong and right
I can’t take this one more night
Tell me why I feel this way
Please don’t tell me I’m okay
These beers go down like water
I’m still just like my father
And just like him
I’ll never change

I've ended up beaten and broken
I don't know how it happened
When it happened
But it happened
And I have tried a thousand times
To come to terms with myself
And my brokeness
And I just can't
I can't figure out how to sort this mess in my head
How to get through a day without wanting to curl up into a ball and forget the world outside exists
How to wake up and not feel as though sleep is my only escape
From a world that has catered to me my entire life
That somehow
I still don't feel at home in
I'm starting to think that maybe it just doesn't get better
That no matter how hard we try
That feeling inside of us never goes away
But there's comfort in that realization
Because maybe everyone around me feels the same crushing pressure that I do
Everyone wants to curl up into a ball and forget the outside world exists
Were all in the same boat and it's sinking fast
Towards a bottom that we're all too scared to imagine
Everyone coexists
Pretending like everything is fine
Just to get home and fall apart
Over and over again
Into a sleep that provides hope
And an escape
A sleep that makes you think you'll feel differently when you wake up
But it won't
And we all know that
And we still pretend
And the fact that maybe
Just maybe
We're all in this together
All experiencing the same weight
Makes me feel a little bit better about whatever is happening inside of my head
Oh glass, Fire, and Smoke
Solid ground and frozen foot
Head of steam to nowhere
On my knees to the edge of my map
I am nothing, made out of nothing to be nothing
My God, I am lost
I am never at home
This place has nothing for me
But I don't want them to feel that way
Open my eyes just to realize
That I can hide behind the smoke of my high
Bottle it up. put it away in a place I find where all the peace is mine
Where all the pieces, they fall in line
Laughing too loud could never be a crime
When not just the brightest stars will shine
But I guess I’m blind like a cloudy night sky, and it’s not okay
I don't want to feel this way

I’ll brave it on my own
How they made that house a home
Could write a novel on that stone
They buried her beneath the snow
Lost him further down the road
The casket lowered him below
The greatest pain I’ve ever known
I promise you I’ve grown

A cold night
Down your street
A goodbye
Don’t look at me
The stars bright
They’re all I see
In your eyes
The darkest shade of green
Jumping the fence
Running for cover
Over and over
And time’s getting slower
It’s harder to breathe
Now it’s hard to see
Blind by the moment
My movements are frozen
I don’t want to freeze.
Glass lays broken
You have me right where you want me
Words unspoken
Do your best to tune me out
Make your heaven
Fireworks in this roundabout
Make it out
But don’t tell me how.
But don’t tell me how
Replace me
Erase everything
A sunrise
The next morning
The glare from your eyes
Reflecting
