There Was Only You

Oh, your love's an ocean and I wanna drown
Oh, you know I'd never, ever let you down

Searching Still

Aren't you sick of wishing you could turn back?
That's how I wasted almost all my life
Just hoping for the same thing over again
Wishing you would make am amends
I'm not insane
I'm not insane
No, not a single thought remains
I'm not insane
I'm not insane
I'm sicking of wishing things would change
All I've been longing for
Is just something more than the feeling of living lost here with you
We're all hopeless here
It's so perfectly clear that this place is nothing but a grave
Nothing but a grave
I can't recall a time that I wasn't so numb
Medicated and broken just for fun
I'm so sorry
I'm sorry
I know I've lost my mind
I know you're worried to death, but I'm just a waste of time
Abandon me
All I've been longing for
Is just something more than the feeling of living lost here with you
We're all hopeless here
It's so perfectly clear that this place is nothing but a grave
You're nothing without me
I'm nothing without you

We're All A Waste

I like to believe that things could be different
Like we never met and I kept my distance
And you could go on to a life of fulfillment
And leave me behind broken and burdened
I can tell you feel guilt by your breathing
I'm so sick of your lies
Believe me, your laughter's deceiving
Don't you lie
If I only knew you were leaving
It's pretty clear it was him you were needing
How I wish I was dreaming
Don't you lie
Forgive me
I'm not what you need
Another concept of "healing"
Another choice I'd ignore
My whole life was littered
Like bottles on the floor
The contents all empty
Just like my emotions
Don't you dare forgive me
I'm still broken and burdened
I can tell you feel guilt by your breathing
I'm so sick of your lies
Believe me, your laughter's deceiving
Don't you lie
If I only knew you were leaving
It's pretty clear it was him you were needing
How I wish I was dreaming
Don't you lie

Bury Me

Starring blank into empty shells
Where the memory cracks the surface of this internal self
Oh god whats happening?
Is there anyone even listening?
I only wish to be safe and sound
I walk through hell but you still let me down
You left me far behind the line where faith was crossed
And you fed me lies
There's nothing left to hide this time
You've been exposed
The truth stands before me
Your conscience must weight more than the guilt that I'll always carry for you
The cold fear that keeps me awake at night is your absence and it makes me sick
What is this world?
What is this life?
What is the point in all of this?
I just need a reason to exist
You left me far behind the line where faith was crossed
And you fed me lies
There's nothing left to hide this time
You've been exposed
The truth stands before me
You'll bury me with all my shame
Of who I am and what I'll never be
You left me far behind the line where faith was crossed
And you fed me lies
There's nothing left to hide this time
You've been exposed
The truth stands before me

Forever Lost

I wish that I could explain how I feel
Its like the more that I cry, the less that I heal
I wish I could determine what is real
It's like I'm hiding away and I'll never escape this place
What good is time if you're waiting for nothing?
Emotions completely drained
I deserve this and there's no one else to blame
Like a lost child never finding it's way
I'll be lost forever and things will never change
Empty houses and empty roads
Empty dreams and not a trace of hope
All abandoned and so fucking alone
I created this place and there's no where else I can go
Enough is enough
I'm afraid of my luck
And if there was chance
It would never be enough
I'm a victim of my own abuse
The pain is just a fraction of what I've been going through
I'm choking on the pills I consume
Remove your hands from my neck and replace them with a noose
Emotions completely drained
I deserve this and there's no one else to blame
Like a lost child never finding it's way
I'll be lost forever and things will never change

Paragon of Virtue

If I could find a way to remove your sorrows
I would lift you up and carry you until the end
If I could lead the way, I'd take you to unending blissfulness
There is an unending light and truth
Just take my hand
I don't want another
No matter what they say
We're all meant to suffer either way
But when I discovered the beauty she displayed
I knew I would love her for all days
From hills to mountain tops
From lakes to great wide oceans
I will find my way to you
If you ever go astray
Arms outstretched grasping at your attention
You're slipping farther away
Lips closed shut
What good is my voice when there's nothing left to say
I don't want another
No matter what they say
We're all meant to suffer either way
But when I discovered the beauty she displayed
I knew I would love her for all days
I don't want another
We're all meant to suffer either way
I don't want another
I knew I would love her for all days

The Only Way Out
04:09
|

I've fucked up my entire life just wasting away
Making the same mistakes that follow me to my grave
If I could change anything
I would go back and erase every trace of me
Cause that's the only way to fix this
If I could dissect my thoughts
I would cut you out and exchange you for something more
But I lay here with a gun to my head
With a plan to paint you across my floor
I can't sleep
I can't eat
I can't focus on anything
If I could find the will to live, maybe I actually could breathe
I fell so fast
No one prepared me for the pain and how long it can last
But I'm exhausted and confused
No matter what, I'm set to lose
You can't force fate in any way
I lost my way when I chose you
If I could dissect my thoughts
I would cut you out and exchange you for something more
But I lay here with a gun to my head
With a plan to paint you across my floor
But there's no one use since I know it's pointless
Cause you can't control me anymore
Instead I found a way out of this mess
And I know this life has more for me in store
