1. SLEEP IT AWAY

Heavy eyes
Desperate cries

I can't stop my thoughts from racing
So I guess I'll just sleep them away
I can't face another day
So I guess I'll just sleep it away

I always needed you
But now you're just a memory
I let you slip away
Now all that's left is the struggle to forgive myself
I feel so lost and alone
I can't leave 'cause this is all I have ever known
I feel so lost and alone
All I want is a reason to exist

We are beautiful when we close our eyes
The world shuts out and time begins to fly
No one can hurt you and everything is gray
It's the perfect way to escape
The fact that you didn't stay

Can I start again?

Heavy eyes
Have I always felt this way?
Desperate cries
Was I always wired this way?

I can't stop my thoughts from racing
So I guess I'll just sleep them away
I can't face another day
So I guess I'll just sleep it away

We are beautiful when we close our eyes
The world shuts out and time begins to fly
No one can hurt you and everything is gray
It's the perfect way to escape
The fact that you didn't stay
Ooh, you didn't stay

Heavy eyes
Desperate cries


2. PULL THE PLUG

Trapped in a void
Confined with no voice
I've accepted the noise that consumes me.

No strength to ignore.
Face down on the floor.
I've blocked out the light that revives me.

How will this end?

Blacked out in a world that is lifeless.
I'm in love with this feeling of crisis.
I just accept it.
It's who I am.
There's no escaping.
It's all part of the plan.

I could take the easy way out but I deserve to suffer.
Clinging on to misery like it's a shelter.
The thought of getting out is just a waste of breath.
I'd give you my all, but there's no use.
I have nothing left.

I spent so much time just searching for a way to you with no avail.
But I found myself in circles in a desperate try to bring you back into my life.

Blacked out in a world that is lifeless.
I'm in love with this feeling of crisis.
I just accept it.
It's who I am.
There's no escaping.
It's all part of the plan.


3. HEAVY RAIN

We were kids with no sense of direction
Our parents saw it in their own reflections
Fucked up and consumed by religion
They drank themselves into oblivion

Your father used to lie through his teeth
Consumed by his vices beyond belief
There were no signs of hope
The truth is we always begged for an overdose

I know it's too late and you're dead and gone
But I wish I could have exposed what was so fucking wrong
I hope the guilt keeps them awake at night
I haven't felt the same since the day that you died

Nothing lasts but I thought you would
Looking back, you were misunderstood
But now, you're in the past and there's nothing to say
You paid the price and they looked the other way

Where I'm now is a place I can't stand
Too many questions unanswered
I'm a worthless man

It's done, it's done
I'm done, I'm done
I can't feel a thing anymore
I'm so fucking numb

Looking back, we were too young to understand
They always said it was just part of God's plan
That's such a poor excuse for what he did
He was a coward with a fist and you were just a defenseless kid

I always play it different in my head
The ways it could have gone instead
I was always told to never say never
But now I know there's no such thing as forever


4. COLLAPSE

I lay wide awake at night
Knowing I won't sleep
Days are passing by
Anxiousness will bury me

I'm so lost in this blizzard in my head
I'm envious of the dead
A melody without a rhythm
No grace to uphold
Surrounded by panic
There's nothing else to enfold

You're still haunting me
I feel I'll never really leave
There's nothing left of me
You drained my life
I'm incomplete

We take our time
But that's all we have
I'd rather die than let this moment last
I've been searching for answers
To find some sort of absolution
But nothing matters in a life of disillusion

I can't begin to put myself back together
Do I trace the past that lead me here?

Is this a dream?
Tell me something
Tell me anything
Am I lowering my grave?
Is there more to life than this?
Just say anything

I'm only human
There''s only so much I can take
Give me a reason to cut my losses
I'm still losing faith

We take our time
But that's all we have
I'd rather die than let this moment last
I've been searching for answers
To find some sort of absolution
But nothing matters in a life of disillusion

Nothing else matters


5. GIVE UP

What use are my lungs if I'm barely breathing?
What use is this heart if it's barely beating?

I'm wishing this was all just a fucked up dream
I'm searching for peace, I want to sleep for eternity
We've buried our tracks, I've walked this path on broken glass
I've waited for this moment and there's no turning back

Wasting a lifetime making all of the wrong choices
Speaking up only strikes fear into the voiceless

(Pace breath) I buried my soul without a coffin so it
(Collect) Could still seize an opportunity
(Must resist) To break free from the claws of reality
(Death) And the obstacles in my way

(Erase) But the past won't let me
No, they won't let me go
(Repeat) The world has different plans
I can't do this on my own

(Emotions) I need somebody to lean on
When time starts to stand still
(Flee) I'm starting to learn I'm only human
And it's okay not to know what to do

What use are my lungs if I'm barely breathing?
I saw the look on your face but looks can be deceiving (Looks can be deceiving)
What use is this heart if it's barely beating? (It's barely beating)
I'll never be more than this and you know I can't resist the pain, ooh
