I'll take everything down, That stands before me and my walk. Like a sinking ship, That was never anchored, I will drown. I'm sinking down unanchored. We'd rather live than waste our time, When we know it won't matter, So much effort has been lost. I haven't given up, I haven't given up completely. It's just that words have escaped me. We'd rather live than waste our time. These tides have grown so strong, These waves have risen to the point where I'm drowning. I won't allow this current to ever take me down. These tides have grown so strong, These waves have risen to the point where I'm drowning. I won't allow this current to ever take me down. I'll never forget where, I've been because, It's brought me, To where I need to be, And shows me where to go. Now that I know what the bottom feels like I can finally, Climb my way back to the top, I won't stop I will never, I'll never stop, clawing my way out of here. We'd rather live than waste our time, When we know it won't matter, So much effort has been lost. I haven't given up, I haven't given up completely. It's just that words have escaped me, We'd rather live than waste our time.

Vanity 03:29
I stand for the right, But fall for the wrong. No matter how many times I fail, I just can't succeed. I have dreamed a dream, But now that dream has gone from me. This is not what we've been, Not what we've been. This is who we are. We surround ourselves with mirrors just to see the reflection's of ourselves. I'll, I'll twist the truth. To spin this web right. I stand the right, But fall for the wrong. I say the words But they never affect me. I have dreamed a dream, ut now that dream has gone from me. This is not what we've been, not what we've been. This is who we are. We surround ourselves with mirrors just to see the reflections of ourselves. Pride is my downfall. I have hated, discriminated, despised, and idolized x2 I have dreamed a dream, but now that dream has gone from me. This is not what we've been not what we've been. This is who we are. We surround ourselves with mirrors just to see the reflections of ourselves.

I trust everyone but myself. I can't progress without age. If only we were waves, forget the ocean, pushing forward, onto better days. This game last so long, I'll never sleep the same again. This game last so long. You're the fire, I'm the ashes. Save me now before I leave before time runs out. I'll always fall away from you, from you. You're the fire I'm the ashes. I hang on every word, 'cause you're never there to catch me. (Oh oh oh oh oh oh) Thoughts surrounding me, corruption becomes one, with my own mind set. Lay me down so I can rise. These trails have made me weak, setting the scene for failure. You and I aren't the same thing completely, but I know that this won't define me. And I know that time waits for no one, I'm taking it back in slow motion. x2 (whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa) Sometimes we have to be broken before we're restored.

Murals 03:48
Why should it be engraved in stone that I'm only living blind? I see the light buried in my heart. 'Cause in the dark I'll never see, never see behind my closed eyes, never see the inside. Maybe I drove a knife through the back of my own life. If you knew my heart you'd know that its not as dark as the skeptics say it is. So won't you come, come and save me? I've never gone so far to show that I'm letting this go. There's never been a day that I couldn't live without. I'll never give a second chance for this moment to pass. Just leave the past behind and construct my peace of mind. I'm only as sick as your thoughts and dreams that surround you. These pictures painted with strokes of judgment. I'm burning that old canvas, and starting new. These walls now preserve the pain I don't deserve. These walls now preserve lessons I never learned. Oh I'll show you who I can be when I don't let you change me. Never see never see behind my closed eyes, never see the inside. Maybe I drove a knife through the back of my own life. I won't let this be me becoming weak. I've never gone so far to show that I'm letting this go. There's never been a day that I couldn't live without. I'll never give a second chance for this moment to pass. Just leave the past behind and construct my peace of mind. Blind eyes are as good as glass set to reflect the lives of the ones that have since deceived them.

Stay here in spite of me. I'll never be the one to change the world though yours is upside down. Days drag on and I'm dreaming of a time when you're not broken down and running scared. Oh the vacant stares. I will never shut my mouth because You don't want to hear the truth. I'll cut these ties that hold us together just to show you that I love you so. Can, can you read it in my eyes? And scream out to the night we are free, we are free. Don't waste your words to say what you don't mean. (Nothing comes from running) Just running away is failing to say that you are moving on. Take it all back, you don't need that. Look in my eyes, let me change this. Put it on my back, I'll carry you through this charade just follow my voice home. (Candles burning out, you'll never find yourself without a light, let me be your flame, I'll lead you to where you can light your life again.) All of those words, you never said to me, pound on my ears so quietly. Grace has arrived and it's knows you by name allow yourself to share the blame. x2 (Fight, Fight off your demons x4) Stand up on your feet, while taking all the blows. They are distant memories now let them go. Can, can you read it in my eyes? And scream out to the night we are free, we are free. (nothing comes from running) Don't waste your words to say what you don't mean. Just running away is failing to say that you are moving on.

Save your words now 'cause it's all the same. You know our story always ends this way and I'm the one who pays. Lust and guilt embrace my surroundings. Your skin is just ever so inviting. I can't find a way out of my head. These allieways are spiraling, I have lost my mind. Save your words now 'cause it's all the same. You know our story always ends this way and I'm the one who pays. Save your words now 'cause it's all the same. You know our story always ends this way and I'm the one who pays. I have grown to accept that you'll never be mine. I've tried to move on, but you're holding me back. Save your words now 'cause it's all the same. You know our story always ends this way and I'm the one who pays. Save your words now 'cause it's all the same. You know our story always ends this way and I'm the one who pays. Accept that I am gone. All our stories end the same way, the same way. I have been swallowed into myself.

I'm so lost. (When I look at you) I'm so lost when you're gone. (Just me and you) There's nothing we can't do, but will we follow through. Can we forget the world, my heart stopped beating? Can we forget the world and let go of everything? Here in this moment can we keep this feeling, just for a moment can we let go? I'm so lost. (When I look at you) I'm so lost when you're gone. (Just me and you) There's nothing we can't do, but will we follow through. I'm so lost. (When I look at you) I'm so lost when you're gone. (Just me and you) There's nothing we can't do, I'll always follow you, let's see this through. I will never let you go. I'll run away with you lets find some peace of mind. It's is against the world lets leave this place behind. Here in this moment our lives are intertwined. When I'm without you I'm flying blind. I'm so lost. (When I look at you) I'm so lost when you're gone. (Just me and you) There's nothing we can't do, but will we follow through. I'm so lost. (When i look at you) I'm so lost when you're gone. (Just me and you) There's nothing we can't do, I'll always follow you. Let's see this through.

Stonybrook 03:03
These scars will never heal. You satisfied yourself with no worry for herself. Such a sleazy way to get off when all she wanted was just to talk. You took her purity and made it her vanity. You finished but the stains still remain as you can't wash away memories. Her white slate now blackened with the grit of her clinging past. These stains will forever make their presents last. Stop fleeing and wipe off your tears. Stop running away from the oppressions, start moving forward. If time were an hour glass, you'd be the sand. You fell through the cracks. It takes such a weak man to disregard rules of civilization and to take advantage of a situation. Her screams fall on dead ears. Vocal chords scrapping her throat. Stop fleeing and wipe off your tears. Stop running away from the oppressions, start moving forward. If time were an hour glass you'd be the sand.

Riot House 03:58
Here is where we come to live to throw away the things that hold us back. This is time that we'll never get back again. We relive the same nights, same nights. This is time that we'll never get back again. We relive the same nights, from beginning to end. Fires burn bright into the endless night. The moments just right for us to relish the time we spend losing ourselves with our friends by our side. We come alive and open up what's bottles inside. When will this end? Will these nights ever grow old? The times we've forgotten, the times we cherish most. I'll never forget the times, I'll never forget these faces. We're waiting for the sun to rise and burn away the consequences. No sleep no stopping us now x3, The sun has risen, we're not going down. No sleep no stopping us. I'll never forget the times, I'll never forget these faces. We're waiting for the sun to rise and burn away the consequences. This fire is going out, and I know it will be lit again. I must recover for tomorrow will be the same night with my friends.

The Unrest 04:15
It is but dreams that make up our future. And it is pain that holds us in place. And it is hope that will lead us through. As our strength and not our weakness. This world entices being content. We will not drift away. Our structure has crumbled down. This world entices being content. We will not trail away. We will continue moving on. So here we are standing at arms length. Knowing the only way back is failure. So take your dreams and follow them with me. Let go of your oppressors. Embrace the challenges. Everything I've done has brought me here. Brought me here. Everything I've done has brought me here. Brought me here. It is but dreams that make up our future. And it is pain that holds us in place. Remember, Weak minds lead to poor decisions. If it wasn't for seasons of hardship then how would we grow? Weak minds lead to poor decisions, If it wasn't for hardship then how would we grow? This world entices being content. We will not drift away. Our structure has crumbled down. This world entices being content. We will not trail away. We will continue moving on.
