1. BAD THINGS

My hands are tied
I fight through my confessions 'cause I'm
Full of bad intentions, so I lie
My hands are tied
Open wide
This novocaine's got purpose, so I'm
Numbing out the worthless they prescribed
I'm not alright

Lately, I've been wasting away in all the bad things
Seen in me almost constantly

Bury me in misery and pain
I'm afraid I won't see better days
Wide awake, they don't know how I feel
Know how I feel
I can't escape, so I'll admit defeat
Ten years of walking in my sleep
I don't think that they see how I feel
Can't see how I feel

You on your way out unaware
Fuck that, I'm already there
Armed to the teeth, but honestly
I don't owe the world a goddamn thing
Buried my sentimental melodies
Six feet deep
Like bad dreams full of bad things
Thick as thieves machine that end me

Lately, I've been wasting away in all the bad things
Seen in me almost constantly

Bury me in misery and pain
I'm afraid I won't see better days
Wide awake, they don't know how I feel
Know how I feel
I can't escape, so I'll admit defeat
Ten years of walking in my sleep
I don't think that they see how I feel
Can't see how I feel

Bury me in misery and pain
I'm afraid I won't see better days
Wide awake, they don't know how I feel
Know how I feel
I can't escape, so I'll admit defeat
Ten years of walking in my sleep
I don't think that they see how I feel
Can't see how I feel


2. DECEIVER

It's all the same to me, so you can go
'Cause you're on your own
Thought you had me fucking fooled, not even close

Caught off guard like a deer in headlights
Tried to hide the bottle behind your bedside light
There hasn't been a colder night in my entire life

You're hard to avoid and somehow unaware
That I can't stand the sound of your voice or dry the tears of fifteen years
Took all the abuse, walked away black and blue
And betrayed me in the worst way you knew, so now I'm over you
So now I'm over you

Before our desperate times
When we first laid eyes on fireflies and Indiana nights
I recall the year was 99

Caught off guard like a deer in headlights
Tried to hide the bottle behind your bedside light
There hasn't been a colder night in my entire life

You're hard to avoid and somehow unaware
That I can't stand the sound of your voice or dry the tears of fifteen years
Took all the abuse, walked away black and blue
And betrayed me in the worst way you knew, so now I'm over you

More afraid than ashamed
I can't express enough the lengths I am willing to go
Filled my veins with disdain to save your withered bones
Hope you know beautiful, I'm better on my own

You're hard to avoid and somehow unaware
That I can't stand the sound of your voice or dry the tears of fifteen years
Took all the abuse, walked away black and blue
And betrayed me in the worst way you knew, so now I'm over you

Caught off guard like a deer in headlights
Tried to hide the bottle behind your bedside light
There hasn't been a colder night in my entire life

There was not much of you left that I cared to lose
When you betrayed me in the worst way you knew, so now I'm over you
So now I'm over you


3. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

Open palms of paper cuts
Back handed as the compliments
I crossed out names on every page
And I gotta say, you're just fucking dead weight

Found you out, I know
Hands around my throat
They'll hunt you down and bleed you out
Then throw you to the crowd

I think you've said it enough
It screams poetic like a loaded gun
Your mind was made up
Fucked pathetic and numb
I'm better off
Broken hearts are hard to get through
Cleaned my wounds so I'd forget you
'Cause enough is enough
Because enough is enough

So what did you expect of me?
I felt like a novelty
For honesty sake
You're just too little too late

Found you out, I know
Hands around my throat
They'll hunt you down and bleed you out
Then throw you to the crowd

I think you've said it enough
It screams poetic like a loaded gun
Your mind was made up
Fucked pathetic and numb
I'm better off
Broken hearts are hard to get through
Cleaned my wounds so I'd forget you
'Cause enough is enough
('Cause enough is enough)

Dig up and drained me of trust
Betrayed what little there was

I've heard you curse upon the blessed, ever since you could speak
Only the lonely can't defend when they're down on their knees
Made us feel wretched scared to death, ripped the hearts from my sleeves
They want to fill your head with hate, then deprive you of dreams
You're just a coward and a Marty in a merciful scene
Disaster spared faith when mine got away

I think you've said it enough
It screams poetic like a loaded gun
Your mind was made up
Fucked pathetic and numb
I'm better off
Broken hearts are hard to get through
Cleaned my wounds so I'd forget you
'Cause enough is enough
('Cause enough is enough)

Dig up and drained me of trust
Betrayed what little there was


4. HELL IS WHERE THE HEART IS

You can forget me and bury my bones
Because I'm burning out the light that's in my soul

Believe me, I need this without a doubt
Sick and feigning without subtlety
My misery
Deceiving in silence yet louder than sirens
I can't help but wanting more for me

Hopeless
It won't help
'Cause were too gone to save ourselves

You can forget me and bury my bones
Because I'm burning out the light that's in my soul
It feels like I'm dead on the inside

I built my casket in confidence
I'm reaching out to you before I wind up dead
When these four black walls are all that's left
Leave me to my devices and I'll paint them red

Lonely, it won't last
You were too good to save myself

You can forget me and bury my bones
Because I'm burning out the light that's in my soul
I'm stuck in a routine where hell's now my home
It feels like I'm burning out the light that's in my soul
It feels like I'm dead on the inside

Feels like I'm dead on the inside, feels like I'm dead inside!
Fuck it!

And now I'm at the end of my rope
And its tied in a noose
Yeah, I've lost all hope
Yeah, it's just another excuse
One that I can't refuse
I was born to lose, don't cut me loose

You can forget me and bury my bones
Because I'm burning out the light that's in my soul
I'm stuck in a routine where hell's now my home
Feels like I'm burning out the light that's in my soul
It feels like I'm dead on the inside


5. GIVE UP MY GHOST

Tongue twisted lines, bitter symphony
I'll be the trust worthy side to my suffering
I've got a hit list for this sickness
So don't try to fucking sell me on a death wish why
I've been here once before

Cause I've been fighting all my life
Its all the same I wasted all my time
In hopes to get it right
Severed all my ties
And now I no where to go
There's so much they don't know

Maybe I should give up my ghost and live forever
Too hard to take feels like I'm worlds away
I don't wanna go this alone, its now or never
Too hard to say so I suffocate, suffocate

I shoulda known, shoulda known they were sick of me
Led me to play selfish games for the sympathy
I went insane turned my allies into enemies
Then fucking left them a problematic awkward status

Cause I've been fighting all my life
Its all the same I wasted all my time
In hopes to get it right
Severed all my ties
And now I no where to go
There's so much they don't know

Maybe I should give up my ghost and live forever
Too hard to take feels like I'm worlds away
I don't wanna go this alone, its now or never
Too hard to say so I suffocate, suffocate

I always felt like a throw away
Ever since I can remember
Maybe I should give up my ghost and live forever

Forget my name
I put myself on display
Tried not to show the pain
Inside of me, side of me
No one ever sees
A side of me, side of me
That no one would believe
Maybe you're all just too late
There's nothing left to take
There's a side of me, side of me no one ever sees
A side of me, a side of me believes that

Maybe I should give up my ghost and live forever
Too hard to take feels like I'm worlds away
I don't wanna go this alone, its now or never
Too hard to say so I suffocate, suffocate

I always felt like a throw away
Ever since I can remember
Maybe I should give up my ghost and live forever


6. CALLING ALL CROWS

We paced these halls when I was young
If walls could talk they'd speak of love
Now cold and calm and left to dust
Kept locked away because what's done is done

I felt your soul leave your body
All the memories we made only haunt me
So far away

Past city lights
There were thorns too thick to see through
Tied up and left to die
There's not a chance in hell I'll reach you in time
Nowhere to hide
What a perfect day for bad news
Kept glorified in black and white
Somewhere past city lights

Past all the lights
Through all the thorns
Through all the thorns
Crows pick at corpses calling nevermore
But...

But in the end
You slipped through my fingertips
The clock won't stop for anything

I felt your soul leave your body
Now all the memories we made only haunt me
So far away

Past city lights
There were thorns too thick to see through
Tied up and left to die
There's not a chance in hell I'll reach you in time
Nowhere to hide
What a perfect day for bad news
Kept glorified in black and white
Somewhere past city lights

My stomach turned inside out
My world got flipped upside down
You turned this place to a ghost town
No one can hear me now
All is lost at the bottom of oblivion
All is lost at the bottom of us

Past city lights
There were thorns too thick to see through
Tied up and left to die
There's not a chance in hell I'll reach you in time
No where to hide
What a perfect day for bad news
Kept glorified in black and white
Somewhere past city lights

No way in hell I'll reach you in time


7. THE DEAD DAYS

Ever since I can remember I've been okay at best
It seems like every days a struggle just to get out of bed
As a kid I thought it couldn't get much better than this
Now I'm one pessimistic son of a bitch

It was the last thing
My momma taught me how could I be so naive, she said

Don't worry kid, the dead days are on their way
Coffins line the streets so dig your grave
There's not a soul alive or heart to break
Cause we're all dead anyways rotting away
Soon well all be dead...
We're already dead...

She said, I'm sorry now you know
I had no time to react
Since then I been out on my own
But time was moving to fast
So I've accepted my fate
Because were all gonna die some day
I never cared for life much anyway

It was the last thing
My momma taught me how could I be so naive, she said

Don't worry kid, the dead days are on their way
Coffins line the streets so dig your grave
There's not a soul alive or heart to break
Cause we're all dead anyways rotting away
Soon well all be dead...
We're already dead...
Yeah, yeah pushin' daisies dead
Bored to fucking death
Yeah, we're already dead

And drowning to debt
Paid with a shot to the head
Too strange for me to come to terms with
She had me thinking what am I up against
Everything I ever love goes to shit

The dead days are on their way
Coffins line the streets so dig your grave
There's not a soul alive or heart to break
Cause we're all dead anyways rotting away
Soon well all be dead...
We're already dead...
Yeah, pushin' daisies dead
Bored to fucking death
Yeah, we're already dead


8. LIKE IT OR NOT

All my life (all my life)
Has been one self-inflicted fucking divide
You had the guts to wake me up, I've had enough
Like a knife (like a knife)
You cut me open just to sever my suffering
Then turned out the lights (turned out the lights)

Don't be afraid, I'm not going away
No chance I'd ever be the same if I made that mistake
You see the best in me

Darling, you're all that I got
I'm here to stay whether you like it or not (whether you like it)
You're just the best thing, and no love's been lost
I'm here to stay whether you like it (whether you like it)
Whether you like it or not

Maybe I was far too gone for shame
Was choking on my narcissistic ways
You walked into my life
Locked eyes, said goodbye
I couldn't rewind or quit you if I tried
You had the guts to wake me up, I've had enough

Don't be afraid, I'm not going away
No chance I'd ever be the same if I made that mistake
You see the best in me

Darling, you're all that I got
I'm here to stay whether you like it or not (whether you like it)
You're just the best thing, and no love's been lost
I'm here to stay whether you like it (whether you like it)
Whether you like it or not

I was in way too deep 'til you believed in me
Skin and bones with a broken soul
Gave me a change of scene, handed me loyalty
Then saved me from the cold
And snapped me out of pacing circles

Darling, you're all that I got
I'm here to stay whether you like it or not (whether you like it)
You're just the best thing, and no love's been lost
I'm here to stay whether you like it (whether you like it)
Whether you like it or not

Never thought that we might get
Torn apart, don't be frightened for us
Never find us divided
All along good as dying for love
Never thought that we might get
Torn apart, don't be frightened for us
Never find us divided
All along good as dying for love


9. SILENCE

Fuck this shit put a bullet to my head
You're never gonna wanna see my face again
I quit taking all that I came with
You couldn't take it or the way I lived

I'm sick, sick
A sad heart you could never fix
You're heartless
I saw it in the end

This won't last forever
Take it back to the day that we first met
Do you even remember what we were up against?
Consequences speak louder when said through your teeth
Silence is everything

Careless felt like you came and went
To never be seen again
I don't regret it
Baggage cut out the merriment
Crawled 'til my fingers bled
And I must confess

I'm sick, sick
A sad heart you could never fix
You're heartless
I saw it in the end

This won't last forever
Take it back to the day that we first met
Do you even remember what we were up against?
Consequences speak louder when said through your teeth
Silence is everything

Thought you'd got away
Handing me escape
Saved me from mistakes I'd make
Before it was too late
Forgetting you was easy

This won't last forever
Take it back to the day that we first met
Do you even remember what we were up against?
Consequences speak louder when said through your teeth
Silence is everything

Oh, yeah
Not this time
Fuck your life


10. TIME KEEPS RUNNING

What the fuck, you've all gone nuts
Like children armed with matches and loaded guns
My god, was I oblivious?
We're mad as fucking hatters 'cause nothing ever mattered to us

The kerosene in me
Laced with gasoline
Ignite a fire they'd see
For miles away from the scene

Time keeps running
Gone in moments
Bodies burning
Blind to omens
Hells stays hungry
For a world so weak

Hate was the only thing that got in my way
Some things never change
No confidence for coming clean will I amount to anything
Anxieties that I've never faced this way

The kerosene in me
Laced with gasoline
Ignite a fire they'd see
For miles away from the scene

Time keeps running
Gone in moments
Bodies burning
Blind to omens
Hells stays hungry
For a world so weak

Oh, so it goes broken and so alone
Leave me hysterical
Sorrow consumes us all
They only want me to bleed

Time keeps running
Gone in moments
Bodies burning
Blind to omens
Hells stays hungry (They sharpen their teeth)
For a world so weak
So weak

Bled me like a leech


11. GOODBYE SOUL

I waited all damn night
My head was spinning I was terrified
A devastation fucking paradigm
How could this happen again?
Another day, another put to rest
(Another day, another put to rest)

Say your last goodbyes
Because we can't operate
You left us all behind
Since then I'm just not the same
No one can stop the rain

So there you lie, such a familiar set of dead eyes
Cold and comatose, hey welcome to my grim life
Oppressive, cynical, I'll never be the same again
Feels almost criminal, I can't remember anything
(Can't remember anything)

Say your last goodbyes
Because we can't operate
You left us all behind
Since then I'm just not the same
No one can stop the rain

Put up one hell of a fight
Then washed away with the tide
Since then I can't feel a thing
No one can stop the rain

Dear lonely soul
Remember me
'Til then you are a know
I can't believe in anything
Fucking my head up with memories
I felt you take your last breath
Prayed they would take me instead
But what's dead is dead forget it

Say your last goodbyes
Because we can't operate
You left us all behind
Since then I'm just not the same
No one can stop the rain

No one can stop the rain
No one can stop the rain
No one can stop the rain
No one can stop the rain
Because we can't operate
No one can stop the rain
You left us all behind
Since then I'm just not the same
No one can stop the rain
