What kind of life is spent Running from my problems And unforgettable mistakes What kind of time is spent Paying mental rent To the things that are keeping me awake I could spend my time falling apart Because there's just too much hate In my heart And I could spend my time trying to fix everything that I've done wrong But I'm going to waste my time Breaking my wrists and writing love songs I need to shed my own skin I need to be made new again Because I am broken I am hopeless You are perfect And I am nothing I'll call it off I'll call it good I've called it anything I could To avoid facing up to the facts Change is slipping through the cracks I'm always slipping through the cracks But oh I'm letting go Of the mental cage I'm in I need to get away from these thoughts That are dragging me down with them And I need to be made new again Because I'm pretty sure there's nothing Left here that's worth saving

Chicago 03:31
Chicago streets Supposed to take my mind off you Well it’s not working And I miss you more than ever before They say it’s a waste of time And even if that’s true I’m glad I wasted it with you
3.
Dying for attention Trying to get a reaction Want someone to love you All you want is some action Yeah you’re insecure Yet you’re narcissistic Gotta be real cool Let them know you’re with it Trying to get attention from your issues Blow someone off Hoping that they’ll miss you Yeah you’re insecure Yet you’re narcissistic Gotta be real cool Let them know you’re with it You can dish it out But you can’t take it And you fake it When you say You say you’re sorry But with no conviction And I really hate the way You treat people And their emotions But when it’s turned the other way You want compassion And understanding And want it all to be okay You say you’re trying to do better And I say that’s bullshit That’s fucking bullshit You will twist the truth and try To cover yourself up And make another girl cry

True Matter 02:10
Well what’s it really all about I think that I could die happy without Anything to my name A happy heart is all I’ll claim We’re so caught up in material things Yeah once they’re gone what will remain I will try and look aside To make sure that life won’t pass me by But if this is it Then take me now And if this is life Then take me now
5.
When I see you in my passenger seat There’s nowhere I would rather be And I know I could do this forever If you wanted to Follow me Into a sea Of unknown uncertainty

Gone By 25 04:10
What if this summer is my last And I am left with nothing but my memories The time that I’ve been wasting Would mean the world to me Take it as it comes Because what if these Are the good old days And I’m to busy worrying About to the future to take My time Because what if these Are the good old days And I’m too busy worrying About the future to enjoy The life that’s passing me by Because most of us are gone by 25 So pack your bags to your nine to five You got a degree so you could hate your life Wifes at home got a kid on the way The pressure is on and you can’t escape And you remember when you used to say Reality just ain’t for me And I’m staying young And I’m living free I hate what they want me to be Take it as it comes

I can’t live here anymore Broken world beyond repair And I don’t know what’s keeping me here When a bullet could make things disappear And God it’s hard to remember what you said With all the shit that’s in my head And the thoughts that I have thought While I’ve been lying awake in bed I need to get away From the demons torturing me I will not be a slave To a torn up humanity Because God you made a world that’s gorgeous And showed us a love that is enormous And I stand back in awe Look what we did to it all

Bad Days 03:13
My mistakes are what haunt me at night And my faith is the only light in my life When I'm lying awake in my bed It's the only thing keeping me From blowing a hole in my head Bad days it's all just a haze Of how I got here in the first place When it all starts to come together It's all blown away by the colder weather I'm lost And I've been digging a hole six feet deep And I've been playing a role that comforts me And I've been drifting away from what I believe I can open my eyes but I can't see Anything that's coming close All I see is my own ghost Watching over a poor boys grave A hopeless soul that could not be saved I'm lost But I still hear you And still feel close from time to time And I know yeah I know That there's something more here But sometimes I find comfort in my fear That I am on my own But I am not alone
