1. BUILT FOR BLAME

Eyes can only see what they want
When they're open minded to the thought
Of getting hurt again beaten to the bone
With the thought of all your worst events
You said just look (you just look) don't touch
Oh you think you know
It's exactly what you want for love, love
Your heart without a key and just is lock to bleed
This wreck you've made it's all you'll need

This is what it takes to breathe
(We're getting up again)
This is what it takes to fake a smile and say
That everything's okay
As long as I take blame

Picture perfect down the drain again and again
I'm really tired of these
Stupid little people knocking you to the ground
You would've never found
The mess you made
I hope it's worth all of the shame

This is what it takes to breathe
(We're getting up again)
This is what it takes to fake a smile and say
That everything's okay
As long as I take blame

We sit inside our heads
'Cause this is such a curse
We sit inside our heads
'Cause nothing ever worked
Nothing ever works

'Cause what if this doesn't work
We sit inside our heads
This is such a curse
And it never ever worked

This is what it takes to breathe...
This is what it takes to fake a smile and say
That everything's okay
As long as I take blame

This is what it takes to breathe
(We're getting up again)
This is what it takes to fake a smile and say
That everything's okay
As long as I take blame...

(Guess I'm the one to blame)


2. PROBLEMATIC

I gots a lot to learn,
But I learn a lot, I'm not concerned.
You've got a lot of burns
From all this pessimisy you said
Miscommunication.
Miss, you've got me waiting.
And I'm shaaa sh-sh-shaking
Emotions, dislocated.

Fake apologies (Fake apologies)
Can I just call it quits,
I can't take all of this.
Fighting all of me (Fighting all of me)
I want a second chance,
But I'm so broken.

(Hahahaha)

I'm growing madder by the day,
It doesn't matter anyway.
Over dramatic and insane
But you look at me so differently,
Oh, me specifically.
'Cause I've got all these little things
Laugh at me, tragedy.

Fake apologies (Fake apologies)
Can I just call it quits
I can't take all of this.
Fighting all of me (Fighting all of me)
I want a second chance,
But I'm so broken.

Yeah, I would give up everything to know,
Just for a fact it won't come back.
And I would give up everything to know,
Just for a fact it won't come back.

So much more.
So much more.
So much mooore!

Fake apologies (Fake apologies)
Can I just call it quits,
I can't take all of this
Fighting all of me (Fighting all of me)
I want a second chance,
But I'm so broken
(x2)

And I've got a lot to learn,
But it's okay I'm not concerned,
Nooo.
Okay, I'm concerned!


3. CYNICAL SKIN

Talk candy in my ear.
Come on.
Come on.
I want your toxic, talk sick baby.
I know those gospel lips can change me.

Look to the right of me okay?
We got exhibit "A"
She.
She ain't okay today.

And to the left
The left of me,
We got exhibit "B"
Oh she's a mess,
to say the least.
She's got her daddy's
Money Money Money.
Honey I think you should run.
I think you should run.

Look oh Look around, You're lost
but never found, no.
6 feet below the ground,
where you avoid your problems.

Look right in front of me.
We got Exhibit "C"
Anorexic, obsessed with magazines.
And when I look over here,
Oh my god that's me in the mirror.
No no no ladies and gentlemen
This is my fear.
My eyes and ears.

Honey I think you should run.
I think you should run.

Look oh Look around, You're lost
But never found, no.
6 feet below the ground,
Where you avoid your problems.

Look oh Look around, You're lost
But never found, no.
6 feet below the ground,
Where you will never solve them.

(I know you don't wanna' hear this but just listen)

The last contendant.
Bad for us.
Bad for you.
This capillary root.
Could root up
All the little
Puzzle peices
Of what you've been through.

Your hair all up in knots,
Don't ever say you're not,
Oh just a nothin'
Cause I swear downstairs you're somethin'

Egotistic, cynical.
I'm gettin'
out of control.
Out of control.
Out of control.

Look oh Look around, You're lost
But never found, no.
6 feet below the ground,
Where you avoid your problems.

Look oh Look around, You're lost
But never found, no.
6 feet below the ground,
Where you will never solve them.

Out of control.
I've got control.


4. KEEP MYSELF ALIVE

I always ask myself
How could this darker cloud make me stronger now.
I'll always ask myself
When Will this go away?

When will this change?
Oh! I don't wanna, wanna wait.
All of this pain,
Oh! will it, will it go away!
I ask myself this everyday!

I just wanna leave this place behind!
Every time I see your face in mine!
I just wanna leave this place behind!
Every time I see your face in mine!

A sink can drink myself.
To sleep I of course think I'm stronger now.
To sleep I gotta catch myself
To kick this over when you go away.
When will this change?
Oh! I don't wanna, wanna wait.
Ohhh! of this pain!
Oh! will it, will it go away?
I broke a plot to plead today

I just wanna leave this place behind!
Every time I see your face in mine!
I just wanna leave this place behind!
Every time I see your face in mine!

So what's your inner thought!
You left me high, you left me dry!
So what's your life look like.
Just don't fix mine, you're all you got.
Never gazelling my head.
Keeping me alive from my death.
I keep singing (whore[?]) da da da da
I keep singing just to keep myself alive!
Alive, just to keep myself alive.

I just wanna leave this place behind!
Every time I see your face in mine!
I just wanna leave this place behind!
Every time I see your face in mine!

I just wanna leave this place behind!
Every time I see your face in mine!
I just wanna leave this place behind!
Every time I see your face in mine!

So what's your inner thought!
You left me high, you left me dry!
So what your life looks like.
Just don't fix mine, you're all you got
You're all you got!
You're all you've got!


5. START TO FALL

Monsters and bed sheets to creep.
While underneath my bed.
It hears me speak about these problems.
I've yet to find these monsters read my mind.
With ears and eyes to paralyze demise.
Tell me how can I can take everything inside.

Slow down! Do you wanna slow down?
In the moment that you start to fall,
Are you comfortable?

Devils come out at night.
In the form of people that I love
They said I'm not enough.
Well factual this has become into
Something so understandable,
So understandable!
Help me out!
Tell me how can I can take everything inside.

Slow down! Do you wanna slow down?
In the moment that you start to fall,
Are you comfortable?

Slow down! Do you wanna slow down?
In the moment that you start to fall,
Are you comfortable?

So comfortable,
So comfortable,
You, you say you're comfortable,
Until your hands are full
For, for that familiar pulse of that
They feelings aren't enough

Slow down! Do you wanna slow down?
In the moment that you start to fall,
Are you comfortable?
Slow down! Do you wanna slow down?
In the moment that you start to fall, start to fall.
Are you comfortable?
You're comfortable.
You're comfortable!
Oh you, you say you're comfortable!
You, don't you tell me you...
You... you say you're comfortable!


6. DON'T YOU DARE FORGET THE SUN

You're a mess, tangled in your confidence.
You think you're Heaven-sent.
Well, you're unstoppable,
Your walls are impassible.

Oh, I think you're better off looking alone,
'Cause the boys that chase your hips
Can just go find their way home.
And at the end of the day you think to yourself,
"My body is a product being sold on a shelf."
Tell me I can change,
Tell me I can change.

I know you lay in bed
Contemplating your own death.
Well, just look at what you've done.
Don't you dare forget the sun, love!

(Don't forget!)

Cold white walls keep you from your panic
And you wanna stab again,
I can't believe it's half this hard,
You never knew your mind was dark, no!

Well, I think you're better off looking alone.
'Cause the boys that chase your hips can just go find their way home.
You can dig so deep for scars.
You never knew your mind was dark.
Come on and breathe with me, oh!
Breathe with me, oh!

Well, I know you lay in bed
Contemplating your own death.
Well, just look at what you've done.
Don't you dare forget the sun, love!

You look down on me so casually
In everything I know.
You look down on me but not right on me.
Did I wreck this broken home?

Dear diary,
Life is trying me.
Can I get a sign?
Or a two of mine, a piece of mind.
Can I get a sign? (a sign)
Can I get a sign? (I know)

Well, I know you lay in bed
Contemplating your own death.
Well, just look at what you've done.
Don't you dare forget the sun, love!

You look down on me so casually
In everything I know.
You look down on me but not right on me.
Is it plain to see that life is trying me?
Life is trying me!
Life is trying.

Can I think of something?
Gotta think of something!


7. DON'T YOU DARE FORGET THE SUN (ACOUSTIC)

You're a mess, tangled in your confidence.
You think you're Heaven-sent.
Well, you're unstoppable,
Your walls are impassible.

Oh, I think you're better off looking alone,
'Cause the boys that chase your hips can just go find their way home.
And at the end of the day you think to yourself,
"My body is a product being sold on a shelf."
Tell me I can change,
Tell me I can change.

I know you lay in bed
Contemplating your own death.
Well, just look at what you've done.
Don't you dare forget the sun, love!

(Don't forget!)

Cold white walls keep you from your panic
And you wanna stab again,
I can't believe it's half this hard,
You never knew your mind was dark, no!

Well, I think you're better off looking alone.
'Cause the boys that chase your hips can just go find their way home.
You can dig so deep for scars.
You never knew your mind was dark.
Come on and breathe with me, oh!
Breathe with me, oh!

Well, I know you lay in bed
Contemplating your own death.
Well, just look at what you've done.
Don't you dare forget the sun, love!

You look down on me so casually
In everything I know.
You look down on me but not right on me.
Did I wreck this broken home?

Dear diary,
Life is trying me.
Can I get a sign?
Or a two of mine, a piece of mind.
Can I get a sign? (a sign)
Can I get a sign? (I know)

Well, I know you lay in bed
Contemplating your own death.
Well, just look at what you've done.
Don't you dare forget the sun, love!

You look down on me so casually
In everything I know.
You look down on me but not right on me.
Is it plain to see that life is trying me?
Life is trying me!
Life is trying.

Can I think of something?
Gotta think of something!
